Celebrating 164 years of Pastoral Service to the Catholic Community of Berea
3rd Sunday of Easter
April 30, 2017
Alleluia! Alleluia! These words ring out as we are in Easter Time. Alleluia! Alleluia! Let
the anthems ring as we run to tell the Good News!
One of my theology professors noted that today’s Gospel about the disciples on the road to Emmaus is
one of the best summaries we have about celebrating Eucharist. We bring
all that we have and are with us when we come to Mass: the disciples
“were conversing about all the things that had occurred.” The story of
faith is proclaimed in the Liturgy of the Word: they told the “stranger”
what had occurred in Jerusalem. The homily interprets life in light of the
Word of God, “he interpreted to them what referred to him in all the
Scriptures.” We become aware of Christ’s presence in our midst, “Stay
with us.” And in the Liturgy of the Eucharist we recognize him in the
breaking of bread, sent forth to share our faith, “they set out at once . . .
[and] recounted what had taken place.” Celebrating word and sacrament
transforms us to take Christ to the world and see with new eyes.
In both the First and Second Readings today, Peter tells the story of Jesus
(First Reading) and connects the story with all the scriptures to help his
hearers see who Jesus was and to invite faith in him. And in the Second
Reading, Peter exhorts his hearers to live differently because of their faith:
put your faith and hope in God who judges impartially.
So too, on this Third Sunday of Easter we are invited to reflect on our lives
in light of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Where does what
we hear and celebrate MAKE OUR HEARTS BURN? How does celebrating the Mass help us to know Christ
more personally in our lives? How do you proclaim the Good News?
NEXT SUNDAY at the 11:30am Mass ALL
OUR FIRST COMMUNION CANDIDATES will receive
their First Holy Communion! What a glorious day for our Candi-
dates and their families as they will come together to celebrate at the Ta-
ble of the Lord and received Him for the very first time. Say a prayer for
them as they will be become one with us at the Table of the Lord.
THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your generosity in the Sunday collections. This LAST
QUARTER of the fiscal year is so VITAL and your continued faithfulness in the Sunday Collection will help to
MEET all our financial obligations and liabilities for the year! AGAIN, thank you for your generosity. Be
blessed this Easter Time!

Bulletin Prayer List
A miracle every day
There is a sort of miracle every day. There is
not a day without some delicate attention of
God, some sign of His love and care, like the
time we ran out of food because of rains and
flood. Just that time the schools closed in
Calcutta and all the bread was given to us so that the people
would not go hungry. For two days, our poor had bread and
bread, until they could eat no more. The greatest miracle is
that God can work through nothings, small things like us. He
uses us to do His work.

Parish Events Bible Study & Quiet Prayer
This week we return to our regular Bible Study beginning
with the Gospel of Matthew. We will meet in the chapel at
11:00am and again at 7:00pm. Choose the time that’s best
for you and join for an hour of walking with the Lord
through scriptures. No prior knowledge is needed. Just
bring your Bible and an open heart and join us.
The schedule for Rosary has changed. We will
no longer have Rosary on Friday’s. We will
continue to gather in the Chapel Monday -
Thursday at 9:30am for the Rosary.
Please Note: Rosary is also scheduled
every Monday Evening at 7:15pm in the
Chapel.
Rosary
Family Perspective
Too many families take too little time to talk about
their faith. Try an Emmaus family journey. Talk about
Jesus and your faith on the ride to church. Or, make
time this week to meet with a trusted friend with
whom you can talk and pray and even share a meal.
Where two or more are gathered in His Name, Jesus is
present in their midst.
Welcome this weekend the newly baptized -

Welcome - Newly Baptized
One-Time Special Collection - This weekend April 29th & 30th for The Trinity Dome at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington D.C. The Catholic Diocese of Cleveland and dioceses across the country have been asked by the leadership of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops to hold a one-time
special second collection to support the mosaic ornamenta-tion of the Trinity Dome. The National Shrine has been a century in the making since the laying of its foundation stone in 1920. This collection will provide the faithful with an oppor-tunity to contribute to the legacy begun by their ancestors, to include honoring their Catholic heritage and entrusting them-selves and their families to the Mother of God. Please be a generous as possible.
2nd Collection
Quiet Prayer
Quiet Prayer will meet in the chapel at 12:30pm on
Tuesday. 20 minutes of quiet prayer will be followed by a
short study from Everything Belongs. Come and see if
quiet prayer might be a way to enhance your prayer life.
12 Step Spirituality
12 Step Spirituality meets in the chapel on Thursday, May
4th, from 2:30pm to 4:00pm to continue our reflection on
Seeds of Grace: Reflections on the Spirituality of the
Twelve Steps. All twelve stoppers are welcome. If your
program could use a spiritual boost, join us this week.
Music Ministry and Liturgy Notes By Angela Kovacs
Director of Music and Liturgy LOVE IS IN THE AIR
Recently, I have noticed just how surrounded I am by love! I watched three of my friends get married within the past two weeks (which is
why there is a substitute pianist this Saturday.) My friends and choir family are so generous with their kind words and acts of appreciation.
I have also had several (blood) family parties to attend that remind me of how great my relatives are! I am surrounded by love. And best of
all, the season of Easter is affirmation that we are truly and entirely loved by God, our Father!
This weekend’s prelude encompasses the Gospel message of those men from Emmaus whose minds were opened to the Word of the
Scriptures. Sacred composer Bob Hurd writes out a beautiful melody that envisions the love of our Lord as we turn to him when we are
weary in body and mind. Those at 11.30am mass will get to hear a contemporary song that celebrates Jesus’s resurrection!
Choir Rehearsal Schedules: Traditional Choir and Contemporary ensemble meets to rehearse on Tuesday evenings at 7.30pm. Youth
Choir also rehearses on Tuesdays at 6.pm. If you are interested in participating in any of these choirs, cantoring, or playing an instrument
during mass, please call or see me after mass up in the loft. Call the music ministry office for more information: 440.243.3877 ext 27.
