From Fr. Joe Last Saturday evening 40 married couples

attended our parish’s Celebration of Marriage

as lived in the life of the Church. Those 40

couples brought together 1,478 years of

married life as they shared a meal; were

entertained with video presentations; prayed

together and renewed their marital

commitment. They also heard about a move-

ment called “Teams of Our Lady” which offers

an opportunity for married couples to gather in

small groups in friendship for prayer and for

support. The years of marriage for the 40

couples ranged from just over 1 year to 66

years of living the Sacrament of Matrimony. If

you are married and didn’t make it to this

year’s event, I hope you consider attending

when we gather again in 2020 for the

Celebration of Marriage event. (Last

Saturday’s Celebration of Marriage evening

also offered a nice break from thinking about

the blast of winter weather we’ve been

experiencing.)

Speaking of the weather and the

occasional whiteout conditions, my brain is

experiencing some of the same. So, at the

moment lacking coherent original reflections,

I’d like to share with you something I read from

C.S. Lewis’ book Mere Christianity.

Lewis, an Irish born British writer and lay

theologian, recalled speaking to some men

from the R.A.F. (Royal Air Force) about God,

religion and Christianity. Now in the quotes

that follow, there is mention of one man’s

experience of “the desert”, but you can

substitute whatever might be a comparable

experience for you or someone you know.

Some examples: being out in the woods; on

the lake fishing; on the golf course; whatever

might be a quiet leisure activity).

Again, when Lewis was talking about

Christianity:

An old, hard-bitten officer got up and

said, “I’ve no use for all that stuff. But,

mind you, I’m a religious man too. I

know there’s a God. I’ve felt Him: out

alone in the desert at night: the tremen-

dous mystery. And that’s just why I don’t

believe all your neat little dogmas and

formulas about Him. To anyone who’s

met the real thing they all seem so petty

and pedantic and unreal!”

Now in a sense I quite agreed with that

man. I think he had probably had a real

experience of God in the desert. And

when he turned from that experience to

the Christian creeds, I think he really was

turning from something real to some

From Fr. Joe—Continued (Continued from Page 2)

thing less real. In the same way, if a man

has once looked at the Atlantic from the

beach, and then goes and looks at a

map of the Atlantic, he also will be

turning from something real to something

less real: turning from real waves to a bit

of coloured paper. But here comes the

point. The map is admittedly only

coloured paper, but there are two things

you have to remember about it. In the

first place, it is based on what hundreds

and thousands of people have found

out by sailing the real Atlantic. In that

way it has behind it masses of experi-

ence just as real as the one you could

have from the beach; only, while yours

would be a single isolated glimpse, the

map fits all those different experiences

together. In the second place, if you

want to go anywhere, the map is

absolutely necessary. As long as you are

content with walks on the beach, your

own glimpses are far more fun than

looking at a map. But the map is going

to be more use than walks on the beach

if you want to get to America.

(Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, pp 135-136)

If you, or someone you know, has the attitude

of that hard-bitten officer in regards to the

details and practices of Christianity (of

Catholicism), are you content with your own

little and limited glimpse of God? Or do you

want to experience and live with God for

eternity? In other words, do you want and

hope to get to heaven? Then you need the

map.

Have a blessed, safe, and hopefully storm-

free week,

Stewardship in Our Readings The words of the psalmist echo the theme of all of today’s readings.

“Blessed are they who hope in the Lord.” As good stewards, firmly

grounded in that hope, may we bear fruit in due season—assisting the

poor, feeding the hungry, and consoling the sorrowful whenever we have

the chance.

From our Diocese:

Seminarian Education Fund Thank You

Throughout the Diocese of Gaylord, we

continue to work hard to foster a culture of

vocations in which men and women are

encouraged to listen for, and respond to,

God’s call for their lives. For the past seven

years, we have taken up a special collection in

August for the Seminarian Education Fund.

Thank you to all who have supported the

education of our seminarians.

As of 1/31/19, the diocese has received

donations of just over $328,000 and our parish

contributed $16,311.00 of that amount. Please

know that your gift to the Seminarian

Education Fund Collection not only makes a

difference now but also for the future of the

Catholic Church here in Northern Lower

Michigan.

Thank you for your generosity!

Note of Thanks On behalf of Options Pregnancy Center, I would like to thank you for your

donation to our ministry [$1,501.39—Quarterly Tithe]. It certainly helps our

planning.

We are blessed and grateful to have you financially partner with us. Your

support allows us to share the gospel message and offer compassionate,

life-affirming services to those facing an unexpected pregnancy. Thank

you for making a difference.

There is still much to accomplish as we continue to work diligently to lay a

firm foundations for this ministry. We are confident that through God’s

unwavering strength and provision, we will see this community

transformed by His love and grace.

Please continue to keep Options and the lives of those who walk through

the door of our Center in your prayers, as we will yours.

Don Spaeth, Treasurer

Parish Vision All Saints Parish is a spiritual and faith-filled family,

embraced by God’s love. We are centered on the

Holy Eucharist, inspired by the Communion of Saints

and empowered by the Holy Spirit to enliven and

ignite a community bound by love. We are united in

vibrant service under the leadership of the Trinity.

Parish Mission We, the members of All Saints Parish are called as a

sacramental people to grow in our faith and

participate fully in the one Body of Christ, centered in

the Eucharist. We value each other’s gifts and talents

as we serve the needs of our community while living

the truth and love of the Gospel.

Need a Ride to Mass?

Our parish partners

with Thunder Bay

T r a n s p o r t a t i o n

Authority to provide

a ride for those who

are in need.

Those who need a ride will need to call TBTA

(ph: 989-356-4596) two hours before you would

like to be picked up to schedule your ride. If

you wish to have it charged, you must tell TBTA

dispatcher you are charging it to All Saints

Parish (we will not be doing reimbursements as

we would have no proof of a ride).

The parish will cover the ride only to/from

Church for the 4 PM Saturday Mass and the

11 AM Sunday Mass (based on the hours of

operation for TBTA).
