Jesus promised that “The soul that will go to Confession and receive HolyCommunionshallobtainthecompleteforgivenessofsinsandpunishment.”(Diary699)He went on to say “I want to grant a complete pardon to the souls that will go toConfessionandreceiveHolyCommunionontheFeastofMyMercy.”(Diary1109) TheImageofTheDivineMercy,whichOurLordrequestedtobesolemnlyblessedand veneratedon this day, is ondisplay in our church. Pope JohnPaul II said that theimageportraystheRisenJesusChristbringingMercytothewholeworld.OurLordsaid“IwanttheimagetobesolemnlyblessedonthefirstSundayafterEaster,andIwantittobeveneratedpubliclysothateverysoulmayknowaboutit. Ipromisethatthesoulthatwillveneratethisimagewillnotperish”.(Diary341,48)
JesussaidtoSt.Faustina,“Iamofferingpeopleavesselwithwhichtheyaretokeep coming for graces to the fountain ofmercy.

Black Catholic Ministry “Taking a Knee: A Catholic, Intercultural Perspective,”
the third of four talks in the Office for Black Catholic Ministry’s “Disciples on a Mission 2019” speaker series, will be held at Detroit’s Corpus Christi Parish on Saturday, May 11.
The series focuses on religious issues touching the experience of Black Catholics in Detroit and Christ’s call to bring the power of the Gospel into the city. Its goal is to rally Black Catholics from Detroit parishes around the call of Archbishop Vigneron to be missionary disciples in the African American community. The final talk, “Unleashing the Gospel in Our Neighborhoods,” will be held at Sacred Heart Major Seminary on September 14.
Your CSA gifts allow our local Church to minister to Black Catholics and predominantly African American parishes through the Office for Black Catholic Ministry.
For more information about CSA-funded ministries, programs, and services go to www.AOD.org.
KATHY SANDERSON, MUSIC DIRECTOR
As we celebrate in the joy and hope of the Easter season, recognizing God’s presence in the Eucharist each week, please keep our First Communicants and their families in your prayers.
During the next three weeks, they will be coming forward to share in the table they have been longing and preparing for over this past year. It is an exciting time for them and their families as they move into a closer and deeper relationship with Jesus, growing in understanding the importance of receiving His Body and His Blood. May they feel God’s grace and love as He welcomes all of them to His table.
