GOSPEL CONNECTION

"Why do questions arise in your hearts?" After

the Resurrection, the Apostles experienced

their fair share of incredulity. Jesus had died-

John had been there-and now the tomb was

empty. What should they believe? Was the

Jesus before them truly real? And who was

Jesus really? It's no surprise that the Apostles

were initially "startled and terrified" to the extent that they "thought that

they were seeing a ghost."

Jesus has compassion on his confused friends. Once he affirms his non-

ghostly identity--"look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself"--Jesus

gets down to business. He has risen from the dead, but life would not

continue as normal. Throughout Jesus' ministry, he spoke in parables and

veiled prophetic language. His followers likely thought much of his words

were metaphors, some symbolism for the person and their relation to

God. Now Jesus has something else in mind. He "opened their minds to

understand the scriptures," making known the connections between his

own words and deeds and "everything written about [him] in the law of

Moses and in the prophets and psalms."

Why now? Why this increased depth of understanding? The answer lies in

the shifting role of the Apostles. "You are witnesses of these things." The

treasury of truth is no longer Jesus' responsibility alone but our own. Then

and there, the Apostles are appointed to proclaim the death and

resurrection of Jesus, the forgiveness of sins and the mercy of God. This

message is no longer for only the Jewish people but "all the nations."

This is our invitation! We have the rich heritage of the Church's teaching.

By sacramental grace, God's "peace" is "with [us]." We, too, are sent to

proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ and the hope that belongs

to his call.

A NOTE FROM FR. MIKE FOR THE PARISH OF ST. ANN — JANESVILLE — PROJECT RENEW 2018

Dear Parishioners at St. Ann,

We have now reached the fundraising phase of PROJECT RENEW 2018- a new parish center addi!on!

As you are aware, we have been discussing this project for a couple of years. The commi#ee has had numerous mee!ngs

and we have invited all parishioners to open sessions to discuss the possibili!es. We have conducted a parish-wide

feasibility study with the vast majority of respondents indica!ng their enthusias!c support. We have also received the

diocesan go-ahead to begin fundraising. In addi!on, all of this is being accomplished without the added expense of hiring

a professional firm to do the feasibility study and fundraising. We are doing it all on our own which will save us many

thousands of dollars. The donated funds will be on deposit at the Janesville State Bank where a dedicated account has

been set up. As far as the actual project goes, we hope to include as many local contractors as possible.

The new parish center addi!on will include a bright and spacious great hall for dinners and recep!ons, a modern kitchen,

handicapped accessible restrooms, a few classrooms, a vehicle drop off area, and an area for storage--all a#ached to our

exis!ng church and office building. The goal for this project has been set at $1,100,000. We hope to raise these funds by

September 1, 2018 so we can go ahead and finalize the actual design.

Once in a while I take a look at the photograph below which shows our beloved ancestors coming together almost

100 years ago (1924) to lengthen and brick the church which we use today. I am inspired by their commitment to chip in

and do the work of making parish life possible. Here we are many decades later s!ll going! Many hands make for lighter

work.

You will soon be receiving a gi*/pledge card--along with a return envelope. I ask you to seriously pray about your gi* and

return it to the parish office as soon as you can. Checks can be made payable to “St. Ann Parish PROJECT RENEW.”

This project is important to the life of our parish and will be a benefit to many. I hope that you will do your best to

support it with your financial sacrifice as well as your prayers.

Happy Easter! Fr. Mike
