Today we begin the third week of Easter. The Easter Season will continue through the Solemnity of Pentecost on May 24. I pray that these Easter weeks are days of grace for you and for your loved ones; and that among the blessings you receive will be a greater sense of how much God loves you, and a deeper faith. Jesus Christ came among us that we might have life and have it more abundantly (Jn 10:10). As we celebrate these high holy days of our Catholic faith, I express my thanks to all of you again for the so many ways in which you have cooperated with God’s grace to make our faith communities of St. Lucy and St. Monica such beautiful parishes. I am grateful to those of you who are involved in the many liturgical ministries that make our Sunday and weekday Masses at St. Lucy and St. Monica Parishes the great moments of worship and prayer that they are – and should be: to our altar servers, and to those who care for the beauty of our churches and for our sacred artifacts; to our sacristans and janitors; to our lectors; to the extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion who serve at the altar and in the homes of our elderly and infirm; to our musicians, our cantors and our choirs; to our ushers and greeters; and to our Worship and Spiritual Life Commission. I am especially grateful for the dedicated and wonderful way in which you served us so beautifully this year in the preparation and celebration of Holy Week and the Triduum. I am grateful to our School administrators, teachers, staff and board; to our Faith Formation and Youth Commission; to our Religious Education Coordinators and to those of you engaged in religious education. You all work actively with parents and sponsors in their God-given responsibility of passing on the faith. I am very thankful for the way you help our children and adults to prepare so well to receive the Sacraments of Baptism, Penance, Eucharist and Confirmation. I am

especially grateful for those of you who

worked in our RCIA programs to prepare

our catechumens and those received into

the Church. My gratitude goes as well to

those of you who work with our youth

our young adults.

I am grateful to those of you who give yourselves

tirelessly to seeking out and helping the less fortunate

among us. Special thanks goes to our St. Vincent

DePaul Society and to its donors for the tremendous

assistance you give to the needy among us in Methuen.

I am grateful to the groups within our two parishes

that gather to build friendships, and to work and to

pray in our behalf – to the St. Monica Council of the

Knights of Columbus and to our young Columbian

Squires (Esto Dignos); to the St. Lucy Blessed Virgin

Mary Sodality; to our Friday Adorers; to our many

prayer groups; and to our Evangelization and Outreach

Commission.

I am deeply grateful to our priests – both resident and

those who assist us from other ministries, to our

deacon, and to our two religious sisters. You serve

our parishes and city in so many selfless and effective

ways. I am grateful to the members of the Pastoral

and Finance Councils, to the Property and Personnel

Commissions, to our Safety and Security Commission,

and to our parish staffs and their helpers for their

service and for the great example they continue to be

for me and for us. Your unflagging generosity of

spirit is an abiding confirmation to me of the truth of

St. Paul’s exhortation, “It is more blessed to give than

to receive” (Acts 20:35).

As I give thanks to the Lord for the abundant gifts he

continues to manifest in you, I pray that you and I may

continue to give generously from what we have

received. The gifts we celebrate at Easter – God’s

forgiveness and our reconciliation with God and one

another in Christ Jesus – are gifts that are meant to be

shared freely by those who have received them. May

the grace we have received make us more and more

like that, “for God loves a cheerful giver” (2Cor 9:7).

From Your Pastor Expressing Easter Gratitude

God bless each of you.

Saint Monica School News

“The St. Monica students in Grade 2 put on a beautiful presentation of the Stations of

the Cross during Holy Week. In reverent words and solemn actions, the children por-

trayed the difficult journey of Jesus on his way to Mount Calvary. How joyous to see

their Alleluia finale: Jesus is risen from the dead! Well done, second grade!

May the joy of the Savior's Resurrection bring peace to all our world!”


PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS Lord Jesus Christ, Savior of the world, show forth, we beseech Thee, in Thy Church the Holy Spirit with whose power the apostles were so abundantly filled. We thank Thee for the blessings bestowed

upon the work of priests and religious; and we pray that Thou wilt add to the number of those who now pray, labor, and sacrifice themselves for Thy glory and the salvation of souls. Give them unselfish zeal for Thy glory. O good Jesus, give us more priests and religious after Thine own Heart! Amen.
