Fourth Sunday of Easter — April 22, 2018 The Rejected Savior
In the reading from Acts, Peter explains to the leaders of Israel how they cured a crippled man. They probably expected Peter to take credit for the cure, so they were waiting for him to hang himself by his words. Peter, of course, gives the credit to Jesus and then makes two important points.
First he calls Jesus the "stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone." This quote from Psalm 118 was used often by the early Christians to show that Jesus was rejected by fellow Jews when he was crucified, but was actually doing God's will when he gave his life on the cross. Thus he became not just a martyr, but the savior of the world. This gave comfort to those who had expected the leaders of Israel to follow Jesus and recognize him as the Messiah. It also told those leaders that they could be forgiven for crucifying Jesus if they would simply repent.
The second point made by Peter was that Jesus is the one and only savior of the world. In those days, the Roman
emperor was considered to be a god and was called a savior. Peter says this to the leaders because they had to obey the emperor and his appointed rulers over Israel. While we no longer look to politicians to be saviors, we need to remember that Jesus is the Savior: he forgives our sins, shows us how to love God and our neighbors, and hears our prayers. He lives in us to support us when the answer to our prayers is "no." And in the end, he is with us when we die to bring us to eternal life. When we love others (and are loved by others) we experience a taste of God's love. Now the choice is yours: to reject the Savior or make Him the cornerstone of your life.

Adoration Chapel Adorers Dinner
The Adoration Chapel Dinner was a beautiful moment to gather with everyone who are so committed to prayer before the Blessed Sacrament.
As the Adorers came together recently for a wonderful meal, we prayerfully remembered these deceased committed adorers who died in the last year:
Ruth Babin Carol Bourgeois
Millard Bourgeois Gloria Dorsey Betty Dupree
Marie Eby Elizabeth “Libby” Flatau
Myrtle Haydel Jean Pizzolato
Ruth Traphagen
What a great way to serve our parish through the powerful witness of prayer before the Blessed Sacrament and an opportunity to grow in your own personal prayer life.
A grateful acknowledgement is made to the Knights of Columbus for the use of the K.C. Home and for serving at the Adoration Dinner. The delicious meal, prepared by Joel Ducote, was enjoyed by all adorers.
Thank you to the Knights of Columbus for all they do for our Church and community.
