PRAYER ON ST. PATRICK’S DAY

Dear Lord, your servant, St. Patrick, was first a slave to, and then a servant of, your people in Ireland.

As he endured years of hardship as a slave, so help us to persevere through trials which seem to serve no purpose at the time.

As Patrick’s time in Ireland served him well, after he was called to be a bishop of that land,

so help us to see how our sufferings strengthen us to do your will.

Later, as Patrick’s people withstood great hardship, protected your word in monasteries, and brought your Church to many new lands,

so help us also to grow in faithfulness to you and be your instruments of the world’s conversion

Amen.

FROM THE WISDOM OF BISHOP BARAGA….

“I met Fr. Baraga on his way to assist the distressed and needy, about two hundred and fifty miles from L’Anse Bay on the Found du Lac trail. His snowshoes had given out in deep snow. Our party made him comfortable and one of my men repaired his snowshoes. Some months later, he told me of his trip and how he found the family sick and destitute; that he had given them medicine and provided for them.

Dear friends:

 

What a great season of Lent we’ve had!! There are so many things for which we need to be grateful to God; namely:

 

1.  The renewed spiritual life of many people and families.

2.  An increased attendance at weekend Masses.

3.  A fruitful Mission which was so well attended.

4.  Many individuals and families have returned to a more activated church life.

5.  Fifteen young couples are getting married during this year.

6.  Three individuals will come into full communion with the Catholic Church.

7.  The completion of the restoration of Our Most Holy Name of Jesus Church and the rededication coming up on March 19th.

 

There is much more for which we need to be grateful to God. Don’t just “count your blessings,” but also be thankful for all the blessings.

 

I invite each of you to participate in the Holy Week services at our church. Let’s bring back the tradition of attending church with your family during this special time of the year.

 

On Easter Sunday I will fly out to visit my family for a month. My Mom will be 80 years old and I will be one-half of that! Also, my uncle  who is a priest  is celebrating his Golden Jubilee of priesthood and my aunt, a Nun, is celebrating her Golden Jubilee, so it will be a wonderful time to be  together.

 

I wanted to personally send each of you my Easter greetings, but due to everything going on  at our three parishes, it didn’t happen! Please consider this as a personal greeting to each of you. I will miss you all and ask that you keep me in your prayers.

 

Happy Easter to you and your families!!

 

Fr. Augustin
