1 Eternal Rest Grant Unto Them O Lord, And Let Perpetual Light Shine Upon Them Please remember the following clergy during the month of April Apr. 2 nd Apr. 4 th Apr. 15 th Apr. 20 th Apr. 24 th Apr. 29 th Apr. 30 th Saint John Paul II Rev. Leslie D. Cann Deacon Henry Seppanen Rev. Paul Leo Manning Rev. Arthur Flynn Rev. Richard Murphy Rev. John J. Vereb Pope s Prayer Intentions Many people conclude the Rosary, the Divine Mercy Chaplet and other prayers and devotions by praying for the intentions of the Holy Father. The Ordo lists the papal prayer intentions each month. Parishes are encouraged to publish the papal prayer intentions in their Sunday bulletins. To better know the concrete problems that trouble the Universal Church, especially those of the missions, the Holy Father asks that his monthly intentions be the object of knowledgeable and responsible prayer on the part of the people of God (Ordo). April Intentions General Intention That people may learn to respect creation and care for it as a gift of God. Missionary Intentions That persecuted Christians may feel the consoling presence of the Risen Lord and the solidarity of all the Church. Leccionario and Misal Romano, Tercera Edición The Subcommittee on Divine Worship in Spanish met on January 27-28, There is still no determination or possible guess for approval and publication at this time. Electric Votive Candle Stands (3) Saint Luke Catholic Church has (3) electric votive stands for sale. If interested, please contact Fr. Andrew Brierley

2 Holy Water Fonts The Congregation for Divine Worship (March 14, 2000 Protocol 569/00/L) addressed the issue of some parishes emptying the holy water fonts during Lent. They were quite insistent that it is neither proper nor appropriate to empty the holy water fonts during Lent (except on the two specified days). The practice of the Church has been to empty the Holy Water fonts on the days of the Sacred Triduum in preparation of the blessing of the water at the Easter Vigil, and it corresponds to those days on which the Eucharist is not celebrated (i.e. Good Friday and Holy Saturday). Confirmation Schedule If a candidate in your parish is not able to attend Confirmation on your assigned date please check with upcoming Confirmations in April/May to see if any dates and parishes are convenient.

3 What is the proper way to dispose of old Holy Oils? While the revised Code of Canon Law contains specifics on the use of the Holy Oils blessed by the diocesan bishop and distributed at the Chrism Mass, it does not contain explicit instructions for disposal of Holy Oils from the previous year which are being replaced. The Book of Blessings, Chapter 32, Order for the Blessing of a Repository for the Holy Oils, Introduction, paragraph 1127 states: Each year when the bishop blesses the oils and consecrates the chrism, the pastor should see that the old oils are properly disposed of by burning and that they are replaced by the newly blessed oils. Burning the old oils may be accomplished by burning them in the Easter Fire at the Easter Vigil Mass. It is not fitting that the Holy Oils be burned along with trash or other non- religious refuse. An alternative to burning is burying the unused oils in a sacred place. A fitting place would be on the church grounds. This can be accomplished by digging an appropriate size trench along the foundation of the church. This trench should be at least 12 inches deep and of a size that the oils will not be evident on the surface after the trench is filled. There is no environmental concern as the oils and chrism essence are non-petroleum base and will eventually be absorbed into the ground. If the quantity of oil is so large that burying them on the church ground is not feasible, then an alternative place to bury the oils is a Catholic cemetery near a statue which identifies the cemetery as Catholic or in the area where priests and religious people are buried. A corollary subject is the cleansing of the ambry vessels or other containers that contained the old oils before newly blessed oils are added. Ambry vessels and old containers should be cleansed with hot soapy water to dilute the olive oil and essence of chrism. This soapy water should be emptied into the sacrarium or emptied directly into the ground next to the church in a similar manner and location as recommended for burying old oils. After it appears that all traces of the old oils have been removed, the ambry vessels and containers can be cleansed and dried in a normal fashion. Rev. Alfredo I. Hernández Saint Vincent de Paul Regional Seminary

4 On Easter Sunday, at Masses with a congregation, the rite of renewal of baptismal promises, used at the Easter Vigil, may take the place of the Creed after the homily. Double Alleluia At Mass, Morning Prayer, and Vespers, throughout the octave, a double alleluia is added to the dismissal and its response (Ordo, 103). Please note that the double alleluia takes place during the octave of Easter and on Pentecost not throughout the Easter season. The Sequence Only the Masses on Easter Sunday and Pentecost Sunday require the Sequence. The Sequence is to be sung before the Alleluia and the people remain seated. This transforms the Sequence into a more contemplative meditation on the mystery of the day in preparation for the Gospel (GIRM, 64; Newsletter, Committee on Divine Worship, July 2012). Easter Sunday Sequence: Pentecost Sunday Sequence: Victimae paschali laudes Veni, Sancte Spiritus April 26 th Fourth Sunday of Easter World Day of Prayer for Vocations Please include a petition for vocations in the General Intercessions and/or pray the Vocations prayer at the end of the General Intercessions. Prayer for Vocations Father, you call each of us by name and ask us to follow you. Bless your Church by raising up dedicated leaders from our families and friends in the Diocese of Palm Beach who will generously serve your people as sisters, brothers, deacons and priests. Inspire us as we grow to know you, and open our hearts to hear your call. We ask this in the name of Jesus, Our Lord. Amen. Oración por Vocaciones Padre, Tu nos llamas a cada uno por nuestro nombre y nos pides que Te sigamos. Bendice nuestra Iglesia en la Diócesis de Palm Beach, escogiendo líderes entre nuestras familias y amigos, que sirvan generosamente a tu pueblo como hermanas, hermanos, diáconos y sacerdotes. Inspíranos para crecer y conocerte, y abre nuestros corazones para escuchar Tu llamado. Pedimos esto en nombre de Jesús Nuestro Señor. Amén

5 Second Sunday of Easter (or Sunday of Divine Mercy) This excerpt from the decree from the Apostolic Penitentiary is provided to help you disseminate proper information regarding the Plenary Indulgence on the Sunday of Divine Mercy. Three conditions for the plenary indulgence And so the Supreme Pontiff, motivated by an ardent desire to foster in Christians this devotion to Divine Mercy as much as possible in the hope of offering great spiritual fruit to the faithful, in the Audience granted on 13 June 2002, to those Responsible for the Apostolic Penitentiary, granted the following Indulgences: a plenary indulgence, granted under the usual conditions (sacramental confession, Eucharistic communion and prayer for the intentions of Supreme Pontiff) to the faithful who, on the Second Sunday of Easter or Divine Mercy Sunday, in any church or chapel, in a spirit that is completely detached from the affection for a sin, even a venial sin, take part in the prayers and devotions held in honour of Divine Mercy, or who, in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament exposed or reserved in the tabernacle, recite the Our Father and the Creed, adding a devout prayer to the merciful Lord Jesus (e.g. Merciful Jesus, I trust in you!"); A partial indulgence, granted to the faithful who, at least with a contrite heart, pray to the merciful Lord Jesus a legitimately approved invocation. For those who cannot go to church or the seriously ill In addition, sailors working on the vast expanse of the sea; the countless brothers and sisters, whom the disasters of war, political events, local violence and other such causes have been driven out of their homeland; the sick and those who nurse them, and all who for a just cause cannot leave their homes or who carry out an activity for the community which cannot be postponed, may obtain a plenary indulgence on Divine Mercy Sunday, if totally detesting any sin, as has been said before, and with the intention of fulfilling as soon as possible the three usual conditions, will recite the Our Father and the Creed before a devout image of Our Merciful Lord Jesus and, in addition, pray a devout invocation to the Merciful Lord Jesus (e.g. Merciful Jesus, I trust in you). If it is impossible that people do even this, on the same day they may obtain the Plenary Indulgence if with a spiritual intention they are united with those carrying out the prescribed practice for obtaining the Indulgence in the usual way and offer to the Merciful Lord a prayer and the sufferings of their illness and the difficulties of their lives, with the resolution to accomplish as soon as possible the three conditions prescribed to obtain the plenary indulgence. Duty of priests: inform parishioners, hear confessions, lead prayers Priests who exercise pastoral ministry, especially parish priests, should inform the faithful in the most suitable way of the Church's salutary provision. They should promptly and generously be willing to hear their confessions. On Divine Mercy Sunday, after celebrating Mass or Vespers, or during devotions in honor of Divine Mercy, with the dignity that is in accord with the rite, they should lead the recitation of the prayers that have been given above.

6 Thursday, April 16 th Holocaust Memorial Day Special mention can be made during General Intercessions today (or preceding Sunday) for those who died during the Holocaust and also for those who continue to die for religious reasons. Thursday, April 23 rd St George Today is the patronal feast of our Holy Father special mention can be made during the Mass (General Intercessions) as well as during the Liturgy of the Hours. Friday, April 24 th 100 th Anniversary of Armenian Genocide Given the atrocities currently being committed against the Christians in the Middle East, special prayers should be said today as well as on Sunday, April 26 th, to remember the millions of Armenian, Assyrian, and Greek Christians who were killed by the Ottoman Turks during WWI. For those who might want to share their prayers with the local Armenian Apostolic Church: Rev. Fr. Paren Galstyan St. David Armenian Apostolic Church 2300 Yamato Road Boca Raton, FL Centennial Logo May 10 th Sixth Sunday of Easter Mother s Day Blessing for Mothers from the Book of Blessings, nos Loving God, as a mother gives life and nourishment to her children, so you watch over your Church. Bless these women, that they may be strengthened as Christian mothers. Let the example of their faith and love shine forth. Grant that we, their sons and daughters, may honor them always with a spirit of profound respect. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen. Ascension of our Lord In the Province of Miami (the dioceses of the State of Florida), the observance of the Ascension of our Lord is transferred to the Seventh Sunday of Easter. Thursday, May 14 h is observed as a weekday during the Sixth Week of Easter. On Sunday, May 17 th, the prayers and readings for the Ascension of our Lord are used in place of the prayers and readings for the Seventh Sunday of Easter.
