“Touch me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have.”

I admit to a certain fascination for the Christianity story. It’s a great piece of literature, and as a philosophy of life, the whole love-one-another business has a lot of appeal. While I appreciate the gospel for its noble ideas, vivid characters, and high dramatic flourishes, none of that is what makes me choose to be a Christian. It’s the tangible aspects of faith that keep me in Christ.

The Bible is the ghost in the machinery of Judeo-Christian religion. We can spend our lives studying these pages—and I highly recommend we all do! But be forewarned: studying the story will never be enough. Sooner or later, every creed-spouting Catholic among us must come to terms with the risen Lord. We have to touch his vital flesh, feel his substantial bones, and know that our God truly lives in the lives of our sisters and brothers. How do you touch the living God, not just in sacramental, but in the lives of others?

"Mirad mis manos y pies, yo mismo soy: palpad y considerad que un espíritu no tiene carne , ni huesos, como vosotros veis que yo tengo".

Admito cierta fascinación por la historia del cristianismo. Es una gran obra literaria y, como filosofía de vida, todo el asunto del amor mutuo tiene mucho atractivo. Si bien aprecio el evangelio por sus ideas nobles, sus personajes vivos y sus dramáticas situaciones, nada de eso es lo que me hace elegir ser cristiano. Son los aspectos tangibles de la fe los que me mantienen en Cristo.

La Biblia es el fantasma en la maquinaria de la religión judeocristiana. Podemos pasar nuestras vidas estudiando estas páginas, ¡y recomiendo encarecidamente que todos lo hagamos! Pero ¡ojo!, estudiar la historia nunca será suficiente. Tarde o temprano, todos los católicos que crecen entre nosotros deben llegar a un acuerdo con el Señor Resucitado. Tenemos que tocar su carne, sentir sus huesos substanciales, y saber que nuestro Dios vive en las vidas de nuestras hermanas y hermanos.

¿Cómo se toca al Dios viviente, no solo en los sacramentos, sino en la vida de los demás?

A message from Fr. Heuberger / Mensaje del Padre Heuberger

Third Sunday of Easter During the seven weeks of Easter time the Church looks for the Lord’s presence in the usual places, and the not so usual places, and comes to find peace in the Risen Lord. The Risen Lord has to assure the disciples that He is not a ghost. Ghosts cause panic; the Risen Lord brings peace. Prayers Steve Caldwell 82, died on February 27, 2018. Mass of Christian Burial will be Monday, April 16th at 11:00 am at St. Vincent’s. Rosary in Church at 10:30 am. Burial at St. Barbara’s at 2:00 pm, next to his wife Ruth Caldwell (Née Lesmeister) who died in June of 2011. There five children: Stephanie, Kelly, Motly, Michael, Stephan. May he live in the Lord’s own peace united with all of God’s people. May the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary be a consolation to the family and loved ones.

Tercer domingo de Pascua Durante las siete semanas de Pascua, la Iglesia busca la presencia del Señor en los lugares habituales y en lugares no tan comunes, y llega a encontrar la paz en el Señor resucitado. El Señor Resucitado tiene que asegurarles a los discípulos que Él no es un fantasma. Los fantasmas causan pánico; el Señor resucitado trae paz Oraciones Steve Caldwell 82, murió el 27 de febrero de 2018.

First Communion testing will be April 16 and 17. Baptism Certificate are needed as soon as possible if you have not brought in your child's copy. Banners are due in our office by April 23rd. Please be sure that your child's FIRST & LAST NAME are on the banner. You may write their names on the back. Banners will be hung in the church that week. Thank you for bringing in your remaining payments for this year. Please continue using the offering envelopes each week. Registration forms were sent home two weeks ago to ALL students in the program. It is recommended that children attend Religious Education classes from 1st grade through 8th grade and continue the four years of high school. This gives the children a FIRM foundation in their faith. Sacraments are supplemental to the classes and occur while the children are learning what it means to be a Catholic in today's world. Children DO NOT GRADUATE once they have received the sacraments. It is very important that they continue in the Religious Education program. Registration for NEW students will open Monday, April 16th. Please stop by our office behind the school gym, to fill out the forms. We are requesting a $20 per child fee at the time of registration. This will be deducted from the total cost of the tuition. A copy of the child's Baptismal Certificate will also be collected at this time. Get your forms in early to help us plan for next year.

El examen para la primera comunión será el 16 y 17 de abril. El certificado de bautismo se necesita tan pronto como sea posible si no ha traído la copia de su hijo.

Las banderas deben presentarse en nuestra oficina antes del 23 de abril. Asegúrese de que el NOMBRE Y APELLIDO de su hijo esté en la bandera. Puede escribir sus nombres en la parte posterior. Banderas serán colgados en la iglesia esa semana. Gracias por traer los pagos restantes para este año. Continúa usando los sobres de la oferta cada semana.

Los formularios de inscripción fueron enviados a casa hace dos semanas a TODOS los estudiantes en el programa. Se recomienda que los niños asistan a clases de Educación Religiosa desde 1° grado hasta 8° grado y continúen los cuatro años de High School. Esto les da a los niños una base FIRME en su fe. Los sacramentos son complementarios a las clases y ocurren mientras los niños están aprendiendo lo que significa ser un católico en el mundo de hoy. Los niños NO SE GRADÚAN después que hayan recibido los sacramentos. Es muy importante que continúen en el programa de Educación Religiosa.

La inscripción para NUEVOS estudiantes se abrirá el lunes, 16 de abril. Pase por nuestra oficina detrás del gimnasio de la escuela, para completar los formularios. Estamos solicitando una tarifa de $20 por niño al momento de la inscripción. Esto se deducirá del costo total de la matrícula. Una copia del Certificado de Bautismo del niño también será recolectada en este momento. Obtenga sus formularios temprano para ayudarnos a planificar el próximo año.

Anyone who is 18-39, married or single, with or without children is welcome. If you have any questions or need more information, please call Lisa Managers at 503-363-4589, extension 216 or email
