“Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.” (Colossians 3:2)
Do you put God first in all things? Possessions, money, power, ego can easily become gods to many of us. Do a quick check of what is important to you. Is God at the very top of the list? If not, your priorities need to be re-adjusted. Don’t let earthly things become a god before God. This is also the first commandment—I am the Lord your God, you shall not have any strange gods before me.
With the COVID – 19 Pandemic currently gripping our country. By Order of Bishop DeGrood, upon advice from the Center for Disease Control (CDC), has suspended Public Masses until further notice. Bishop DeGrood invites everyone to pray the rosary and view the TV Catholic Mass Sunday Mornings 10:00AM televised on the Kelo-Land channel or from your computer go to the website sfcatholic.org for the TV Mass.—Regarding Confessions see times on front of bulletin.
Regarding tithing, if you wish to mail your offering, the church’s mailing address is on the front of the bulle-tins, you may drop them off at the churches or sfcatholic.org/online-donations/.

An Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You in life or in death. Amen.

Just a bit from Fr. Schmidt Hungering for the Flesh of God
I definitely didn’t plan on spending my first Easter as a pastor of parishes in a general quarantine with public Masses suspended, but then, Fr. Kopel probably never planned to spend his last before retirement this way ei-ther. In his 43 years of priesthood, he says he’s never experienced anything like this. And it’s most difficult for those in nursing homes or alone at home unable to have visitors, unable to receive sacramentally the greatest Visitor of all, Jesus in the Most Holy Eucharist. For all the graces that God is able to pour out through spiritual Communions, through knowledge of His pres-ence everywhere and more particularly through His sanctifying grace in our souls, through the words of Scrip-ture and prayer, there’s no denying that being unable to receive Jesus in sacramental Communion is a heavy cross that you’ve been asked to continue to bear even into the Easter season. But God is faithful. Whatever He asks of you, He will also give you the grace to bear.
We don’t often consider that for huge portions of the Church’s history, frequent Communion was not all that common. To receive at only the highest feasts, just a few times throughout the year—always after making a good Confession—was the much more typical practice. Otherwise, Catholics would attend Mass every Sunday or more often, praying for a Spiritual Communion almost every time. And yet, God raised up countless Saints in His Church during those centuries. His grace was never lacking to those willing to cooperate with it. And I’m sure each time they did receive Holy Communion was almost as memorable as their First.
There is a danger in anything frequent becoming merely routine. Hopefully this unique time gives us a chance to better reflect on the matchless Gift of the Most Holy Eucharist and not take for granted or pass over with indifference the God who took on Flesh that He might feed us with His very Self. “And whoever feeds on Me will have life because of Me. And I will raise him up on the last day” (Jn 6:57, 40).
Christ is risen! He is truly risen, never to die again. And He promises the same to all those who hope in His word, those who do not merely call Him “Lord, Lord,” but who put into practice what He commands (Cf. Lk 6:46; Mt 7:21). As difficult as it may be be-cause of all that is happening, “do not be sad this day, for rejoicing in the Lord must be your strength” (Nehemiah 8:10). Alleluia! Praise the Lord! Happy Easter to you and yours!
Word of Life “Those who die in God’s grace and friendship live forever with Christ. Heaven is not an ab-stract idea, but a true and lasting relationship with God that is beyond all earthly description and understanding. We look forward to the res-urrection of the dead and everlasting life be pre-paring now, in hope, for our passage from this life into eternal life.”
