1 1305 Royal Avenue Simi Valley, CA Phone: Palm Sunday March 25, 2018 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted, "Hosanna!" "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD!" Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!" "Hosanna in the highest heaven!" You are invited to the Easter Egg Hunt! All elementary age children are invited to be part of the fun and fellowship on Easter Sunday right after the 9:00 & 11:00am Masses. There will be plenty of hidden eggs AND an Easter Bunny!

RCIA 3 rd Scrutiny and Presentation of The Our Father On the 5 th Sunday of Lent, the Church celebrates the 3 rd Scrutiny for the Elect who will be baptized at the Easter Vigil Celebration. Their responses come from reflections on the reading from Ezekiel 37: The questions include: Where in my life do I long for freedom to live new life in Christ? In what areas of my life do I experience death? What sins bind me? What are the graves in my life, those places of darkness and death? How might I also reach out to others to help untie and free them to live in Christ? During this 5 th week of Lent, we too can reflect on these questions. During the week following the 5 th Sunday of Lent, the Church presents the Elect with the Our Father. The Lord s Prayer fills the Elect with a deeper realization of the new spirit of adoption by which they will call God their Father, especially in the midst of the Eucharistic Assembly. The Presentation of the Our Father will be Wednesday evening, March 21 st at 6:45 PM in the Church. Our Parish Community is welcome to join us.

You can help children know they are understood As parents, educators and volunteers, we want children to know that we are not only authority figures in their lives, but also people they can trust. To foster authentic trust with children, it is important that they know that you understand them. One of the simplest ways to do this is by repeating back what children are telling you. When you do this, you are affirming to the child that they are heard and understood.

12 The Sunday after Easter is Divine Mercy Sunday! Let s prepare for this great Feast Jesus told St. Faustina that this Feast of Mercy would be a very special day when all the divine floodgates through which graces flow are opened. (Diary 699) Jesus promised that The soul that will go to Confession and receive Holy Communion shall obtain the complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. (Diary 699) He went on to say I want to grant a complete pardon to the souls on the Feast of My Mercy. (Diary 1109). This is the Plenary Indulgence of this great Feast of Mercy Divine Mercy Sunday. All who go to confession, remain completely free sin, receive the Holy Eucharist, and offer prayers for the intentions of the Holy Father within the 20 day period surrounding Divine Mercy Sunday may obtain the Plenary Indulgence for themselves or a deceased loved one in purgatory. We want you to benefit fully from these promises, and we also want you to notify all of your family and friends about them too and urge them to avail themselves of these great graces! Our Lord said I want the image to be solemnly blessed on the first Sunday after Easter, and I want it to be venerated publicly so that every soul may know about it. I promise that the soul that will venerate this History of The Divine Mercy In Poland in July of 1924, Helena Kowalska sees a vision of the scourged Christ who calls her to religious life. She is accepted by the Congregation of Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy in Warsaw in August 1925, receives her habit and religious name Maria Faustina. In 1931, Sister Faustina has a vision of Jesus who tells her to paint His image. She perseveres through illness and ridicule, but directed by her spiritual director (Father Michael Sopocko) begins to write her Diary to describe Our Lord s message of The Divine Mercy and succeeds in having the image of The Divine Mercy painted. In 1935, The Divine Mercy image is publically venerated in Vilnius for the conclusion of the Jubilee Year of Redemption. Sister Faustina bears the cross of her illness, makes her final confession and dies on October 5, Father Joseph Jarzebowski, MIC, brings the Divine Mercy devotion to the United States in 1941 and the Congregations of Marians of the Immaculate Conception begin to spread the message of The Divine Mercy. Blessed Faustina is canonized in Rome by Pope John Paul II on the second Sunday of Easter in April of 2000, and Divine Mercy Sunday is proclaimed to be celebrated by the universal church. Blessed John Paul II is canonized by Pope Francis in Rome on Divine Mercy Sunday in The Divine Mercy Novena 2018 at St. Rose of Lima Parish We will celebrate the Novena of The Divine Mercy starting on Good Friday, by publically praying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy daily until Divine Mercy Sunday Good Friday March 30, 2018 following the Procession of the Dead Christ ~ 3:00 pm in the Hall Holy Saturday March 31, 2018 ~ 9:00 am following conclusion of Morning Prayer in the Church Easter Sunday April 1, 2018 following conclusion of the 9:00 am Mass in the Church Monday through Friday April 2 to April 6, 2018 following the 5:30 pm daily Mass Saturday April 7, 2018 following the 8:30 am Mass.
