Our Lady of Peace Church & School~ Darien, Illinois

The Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception

Dear Our Lady of Peace Family, So many of you have loved and supported us through this difficult time, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Thank you for the prayers, condolences, cards, let-ters, and food. Thank you for the hugs, phone calls, and of-fers of rides. Thank you for your expressions of love, stories of Dad, and gratitude for him. We know that Deacon Paul touched all your lives, which was evident from the long lines and heartfelt stories. Even though we are sad here on earth, we rejoice that—what he spent his life trying to achieve—he achieved. “Well done, good and faithful servant.” Most of all, thank you for your prayers. They lift us up and help us carry on until we see him again. Thank you, thank you, thank you. The Family of Deacon Paul Brachle

From Father Walter’s desk… “Thank you! From Deacon Paul’s Family”

WEDDING BANNS

Your prayers have been a tremendous source of healing, empowerment,

enrichment, and prophecies for all of the sick of Our Lady of Peace,

especially those listed below. Join us daily by sharing your spirituality and

prayer devotions for the sick.

BAPTISMS

Please pray for the joyful rebirth into the eternal celebration of God’s love for the departed.

Madonna Tomsovic Ramona Reyes

ANNIVERSARY WISHES

Remembering Jesus’ Message of Divine Mercy…

From the Catechism of the Catholic Church …

“Obedience for laity is different and perhaps more difficult than for religious, as we do not take vows of obedience to a superior. We are called to be obedient to Holy Mother Church and to do the will of God, which at times can be difficult to dis-cern. We should be like Jesus who took all things

to prayer. Jesus told St. Faustina ‘A soul that loves me very much must, ought to live by My will’…” (Diary, 1023 & EADM Manual)

“For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by one man’s obedience many will be made righteous” Rom 5:19 (CCC #615) “Sin is an offense against God...it sets itself against God’s love for us. Like the first sin, it is disobedi-ence, a revolt against God through the will...this love of oneself even to contempt of God” (CCC #1850)

It is with joy that we announce the upcoming wedding
