A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR

Dear Holy Apostles Parish Family:

I hope you found all the blessings of Easter in this very different moment! Holy Week and Easter were very emotional and unforgettable to me. On Holy Thursday, all I could think of were the nurses washing the feet of Jesus, their patients. Next year we will be washing the feet of front liners. Then Deacon Curt touched the pictures of people as we transferred the Eucharist for adoration. We spoke afterwards and he just broke down saying that it was so hard seeing the faces of all those people and not being able to be together.

On Friday morning I then started a tradition I will keep until we all come back to church. I walk through the pews and look at each picture, some in gratitude, some laughs, some prayers and lots of love. I see pictures of people alone, families, extended families, people at weddings, ballgames, vacations and many wonderful moments. We have about 500 pictures and at least 1,500 people in the pews. Some are even people who watch us from across the nation. The beauty of this moment is that we have 100 devices signed on at daily Mass and 650 on Easter Sunday, which means multiply that by 2 or 3 to get how many people are watching together. The immense blessing was to see how many families got together from all over the country to be together yet apart at Mass. My favorite part of holidays is to see people come home and see three generations at Mass together. That’s when its powerful

On Sunday it hit me that if we can get through Good Friday in this moment and stay home safe, imagine what the resurrection will look like when we return to our new normal. I keep thinking of this time as the time of labor a birthing mom goes through then the joy of seeing that beautiful baby and say I want this child to have a beautiful life. If we take care of ourselves in this moment like a pregnant mom, go through labor and suffering of being at home and losing all the events cancelled, while being apart from people we love, how good will it be to hug them again? This Holy Week I pray will give rise to a real resurrection in our world where we see the good-ness in each other and not allow the fear and anger of a loud few drown out all that goodness and love.

Here is hoping this Resurrection leads to new life for us all!

Father Paul

Help Feed our Friends in Need Massive unemployment has a created a great need for food in our community. Our St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry is running low. If you are able, please donate non-perishable food (pasta, sauce, peanut butter, mac ‘n cheese, rice, tuna, canned fruits and vegeta-bles, beans) to the pantry. Please leave your food donations at the handicapped entrance (with the canopy) on the west side of church. Thank you!

A powerful image of love in these times. Lord, help us to see you in everyone and be you to all. Keep all our front liners safe and healthy.

It has long been a Catholic understanding that when circumstances prevent one from receiving Holy Communion, it is possible to make an Act of Spiritual Communion, which is a source of grace. Spiritual Communion is an ardent desire to receive Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament and lovingly embrace him at a time or in circumstances when one cannot receive Him in sacramental Communion. The most common reason for making an Act of Spiritual Communion is when a person cannot attend Mass. Acts of Spiritual Communion increase our desire to receive sacramen-tal Communion and help us avoid the sins that would make us unable to receive Holy Communion worthily. Pray this with live stream Mass:

Spiritual Communion Prayer My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love you above all things and I desire to receive you in my soul. Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally, Come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace you as if you were already there And unite myself wholly to you. Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen.

.Your Gifts Help our Needy Neighbors As we all continue to navigate through social distanc-ing and a focus on staying healthy, the impacts rever-berate throughout our own lives, our local community and our country. Many of us have been unable to work due to temporary business closures and/or our chil-dren being home from school. As we support our loved ones and friends through phone calls, social media contact and our prayers, you may wonder how you can also support others in our community. The St. Vincent de Paul Society greatly appreciates your donations through GiveCentral, text to 84321 to give, or mail your check in; all donations go directly toward helping those in our community who are struggling with utility, housing, medical bills as well as with food shortages. "Whoever has a bountiful eye will be blessed, for he shares his bread with the poor." Proverbs 22:9

With funding from the St. Vincent de Paul Society, a food truck distribution took place on April 6th here at Holy Apostles. We were able to serve 145 households (436 individuals with 146 of those being 18 and un-der). Fifty four of the households said they visited a food pantry in the last three months. The need is great and will continue to grow with so many people out of work. Another food truck distribution is scheduled for next Saturday, April 25, at 12 noon. One hundred percent of your gifts to the St. Vincent de Paul Society directly help people right here in our community in so many ways. Thank you so much for your gifts!

How Can We/You Help? Holy Apostles has received many calls and emails from parish members asking how they can help serve those in our community who need our help during this challenging time due to job loss, being isolated in an senior assisted living, etc. We also want to hear from you if you are the one that needs help. We have created a “COVID-19 McHenry Outreach Group” that will allow people to share their needs and those who want to help to communicate and serve each other. Please visit our website tcoha.org and click on the “Help Your Neighbor COVID-19 McHenry Outreach Groups” slide on the home page. The best thing we can all do right now is to STAY HOME AND HELP STOP THE SPREAD OF COVID-19! Please also pray especially for our front liners—our medical person-nel, first responders, truck drivers, employees of stores that are open, and many others who are overworked, stressed and daily face the possibility of getting ill.

Our Holy Apostles campus is a place of quiet peace and natural beauty. God’s presence can truly be felt among the trees and lawns and plantings and in the skies above. Our priests both captured an example of God’s handiwork as they walked the grounds. Fr. Paul caught a colorful rainbow above the Adoration Chapel after a rain and Fr. Andrew a bright full moon right at the tip of the bell tower. Both can be seen as messages of hope in these uncertain times.

Pray for Our April Deceased At the 8 AM Mass on the third Sunday of the month, we remember all those who died during that month in past years, tak-en from Holy Apostles’ funeral records. Please pray that their souls are at rest with the Lord. Eternal rest grant to them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

The message of The Divine Mercy is that God loves us and wants us to recognize that His mercy is greater than our sins, so that we will call upon Him with trust, receive His mercy, and let it flow through us to others. Thus, all will come to share His joy. The Divine Mercy message is one we can call to mind simply by remembering ABC: A—Ask for His Mercy. God wants us to approach Him in prayer constantly, repenting of our sins and asking Him to pour His mercy out upon us and upon the whole world. B—Be merciful. God wants us to receive His mercy and let it flow through us to others. He wants us to extend love and forgiveness to others just as He does to us. C—Completely trust in Jesus. God wants us to know that the graces of His mercy are dependent upon our trust. The more we trust in Jesus, the more we will receive. This message and devotion to Jesus as The Divine Mercy is based on the writings of Saint Faustina Kowalska, an uneducated Polish nun who, in obedience to her spiritual director, wrote a diary of about 600 pages recording the revelations she received about God's mercy.

Domingo de la Divina Misericordia Hoy celebramos el triunfo de la misericordia, donde Cristo se hace presente y el perdón. Pasó por la vida curando, bendicien-do, perdonando. En la Cruz, repetía las palabras de perdón. En la Pascua el perdón fluye espontáneamente de la herida de su corazón. Perdón para quienes lo estaban crucificando, perdón para los discípulos dispersos, cobardes, dudosos. Perdón para Pedro, el que por miedo lo negó tres veces. Perdón para Tomás, el que no se fiaba ni confiaba. Perdón para ti, y para mí que lo hemos negado tantas veces, y lo hemos dejado solo con el peso de la cruz, la cual cargaba por culpa de nuestros pecados. Perdón para el mundo que sufre tanta vio-lencia e injusticias. Ahora Cristo ha resucitado y levan-ta un estandarte de vida y de amor, de paz y perdón. Y deja abierta las puertas de su corazón traspasado para que brote la gracia y la misericordia. Ya no necesitamos ofrendas diarias por los pecados, basta invocar el nombre de Jesús y decirle, “Jesús, en ti confío.” Recemos hoy, y todos los días a las 3:00 de la tarde la Coronilla a la Divina Misericordia: “Expiraste Jesús, pero la fuente de vida brotó para las almas y el mar de misericordia se abrió para el mundo entero. ¡Oh fuente de vida! Insondable mis-ericordia Divina, abarca el mundo entero y derrámate sobre nosotros.” “Oh sangre y agua que brotaste del corazón de Jesús, como fuente de misericordia para nosotros, en ti confío.”

Tomás: Entre la Desconfianza y la Fe Sus amigos le han dicho que Jesús está vivo, pero no estuvo allí para verlo. Parece decirles: “¡Otra vez con la historia del resucitado!” Escruta sus miradas de alegría, como si quisiera creerles. Mueve después la cabeza con insistencia: “Si no meto mi dedo en el lugar de sus cla-vos, y mi mano en su costado, no creeré.” Tomás sería el más feliz de los hombres si esto que está escuchando fuese verdad. También estaba fascinado al igual que los demás por este amigo extraordinario, pero cree que las cosas le salieron mal a Jesús. Es difícil im-aginar un final más amargo y un rechazo más completo que esta muerte de cruz decidida por el tribunal más alto de la nación judía de acuerdo con el gobernador romano. Ante semejante tragedia, se pierde el sueño a fuerza de lógica: “¿Ha resucitado de verdad Jesús? Si hubiera querido Dios darle su apoyo, ¿no hubiera in-tervenido antes en lugar de dejarlo sufrir así?” De hecho, Jesús ha puesto toda su confianza en su Padre, pero no le ha ahorrado ningún dolor a su propia condición hu-mana.Tomás se desgarra en un profundo misterio. Elige esperar que le venga la experiencia del resucitado per-sonalmente. Su decisión nos esclarece tanto como nos asegura. Pues en lugar de reprenderlo, Jesús le expresa su compasión y su confianza como lo hizo con la mujer adúltera al decirle: “En adelante no peques más” (Juan 8, 11). No hay en la mirada del resucitado ningun reproche ni ninguna condena cuando dice amigablemente a Tomás: “No seas incrédulo sino cree.” El apóstol, parece, no pedía tanto. Responde con un impulso de agradecimiento y de profunda amistad: “Señor mío y Dios mío.” Esta palabra nos remite por en-cima de los siglos al corazón de la realidad eclesial. La fe naciente de los primeros testigos es también la nuestra. Reunidos entre amigos, los cercanos del resu-citado se llenan de emoción y de alegría al ver a Jesús. María Magdalena, la primera que llega a la tum-ba, transmite la gran noticia a Pedro y a Juan. Después cada uno y cada una hace, a su vez, la experiencia de este agradecimiento cordial: Jesús, el Cristo está vivo. Lo reconocemos también con Tomás, y todos juntos so-mos testigos. Más, sin embargo, la experiencia del resu-citado es personal, tú decides si en verdad crees, o no crees que, ¡Jesucristo ha Resucitado! Mande su Fotografía Siga mandando sus fotografías, todavía hay bastante espacio vacío en las bancas de la Iglesia. Mande su foto-grafía a: adowning@tcoha.org desafortunadamente no sabemos todavía por cuanto tiempo los templos se-guirán cerrados, teniendo al menos su fotografía sen-tiremos su presencia junto con toda la comunidad para mantenernos unidos en esta difícil prueba.

¿Por qué rezamos el Regina Coeli y no el Ángelus en tiempo Pascual? Durante el tiempo pascual, la Iglesia Universal se une en la oración del Regina Coeli o Reina del Cielo. Junto a la Madre de Dios, nos alegramos por la resur-rección de su Hijo Jesucristo, hecho que marca el misterio más grande de la fe católica. El rezo de la antífona de Regina Coeli fue establecida por el Papa Benedic-to XIV en 1742 y reemplaza durante el tiempo pascual, desde la celebración de la resurrección hasta el día de Pentecostés, al rezo del Ángelus cuya meditación se centra en el misterio de la Encarnación. De la misma manera que el Ángelus, el Re-gina Coeli se reza tres veces al día, al amanecer, al medi-odía y al atardecer como una manera de consagrar su día a Dios y la Virgen María. No se conoce el autor de esta composición litúrgica que se remonta al siglo XII y era repetido por los Frailes menores Franciscanos después de las completas en la primera mitad del siguiente siglo popularizándola y extendiéndose por todo el mundo cristiano. Oración:

Reina del cielo, alégrate, aleluya. Porque el Señor, a quien has llevado en tu vientre, aleluya. Ha resucitado según su palabra, aleluya. Ruega al Señor por nosotros, aleluya. Goza y alégrate Virgen María, aleluya. Porque en verdad ha resucitado el Señor, aleluya. Amén.

Mensaje del Pastor Felices Pascuas! Sé que este ha sido un momento desafi-ante para todos nosotros. Estamos llamados a permanec-er seguros en casa, pero aun así seguir conectados con Dios, con nosotros mismos y con los demás. Los her-manos se están acercando, los niños extrañan a los abuelos, los amigos extrañan estar juntos y todos extra-ñamos recibir el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo. Les agradezco a todos por mantener sus donaciones a la iglesia a través de sus donaciones electrónicas, mensajes de texto a 84321 y sobres. ¡Con sus donaciones hemos podido seguir en marcha y haciendo posible que sigamos unidos con ustedes! ¿Cómo encontrarnos en Facebook?

Sus Donaciones Ayudan a nuestros Vecinos Necesitados A medida que todos seguimos navegando a través del distanciamiento social, pero con el mismo enfoque en mantenernos saludables, mas, sin embargo, las con-secuencias se hacen notar en el mundo, en nuestro país, nuestra comunidad local y sobre todo en nues-tras propias vidas. Muchos de nosotros no hemos podi-do trabajar debido al cierre temporal de negocios. Nuestros hijos toman sus clases desde casa. Cuando apoyamos a nuestros seres queridos y amigos a través de llamadas telefónicas, contactos en las redes social-es y con nuestras oraciones, es posible que se pregun-te cómo puede apoyar a otros en nuestra comunidad. Pueden hacer sus donaciones en línea a través de “GiveCentral” enviar un mensaje de texto al 84321, o mande un cheque personal por correo; todas las donaciones van directamente a ayudar a aquellos en nuestra comunidad que están luchando con servicios públicos, vivienda, facturas médicas, así como con la escasez de alimentos.

Con los fondos recibidos, el 6 de abril se realizó una distribución de comida. Pudimos entregar una despen-sa a 145 hogares (436 personas de los cuales 146 tenían 18 años o menos). 54 de los hogares dijeron que visitaron una despensa de alimentos en los últi-mos tres meses. La necesidad es grande y seguirá creciendo con tanta gente sin trabajo. ¡San Vicente de Paul agradece inmensamente sus donaciones! Otra distribución de comida está programada para el próximo sábado 25 de abril a las 12 del mediodía. El cien por ciento de sus donaciones a la Sociedad de San Vicente de Paul ayuda directamente a las per-sonas aquí en nuestra comunidad de muchas maneras. ¡Muchas gracias por sus donaciones! "El que tenga un ojo generoso será bendecido, porque comparte su pan con los pobres". (Proverbios 22: 9). Oficina Parroquial Cerrada Nuestra oficina parroquial continúa cerrada y desafor-tunadamente no sabemos hasta cuando contin-uaremos así, pero el personal de la los Santos Apóstoles seguimos atendiendo a través de nuestros teléfonos sus necesidades. Marque a nuestro número 815-385-5673 para sus intenciones de misas o cualquier pregunta que usted tenga. Sigamos orando por todas las personas enfermas que se han contagi-ado del coronavirus, por sus familiaresque para que Dios nos ayude con su Divina Misericordia a salir de esta pandemia y podamos volver de nuevo a nuestras actividades regulares. Que el Señor nos bendiga a todos en esta dificil prueba. Agradecemos mucho por toda su paciencia. ¡Dios los bediga!
