May 11-June 13
Do you have a special devotion to Mary?
In this Year of Faith, as we are called to
turn towards Jesus Christ and enter into a
deeper relationship with Him, consider
consecrating yourself to Jesus Christ
through Mary. The Total Consecration to
Jesus through Mary by St. Louis-Marie
de Monfort involves a 33-day preparation
period, which consists of daily readings
and prayers, and culminates with a prayer of consecration on a
Marian feast day. Both the preparation and the prayer of
consecration can be done individually. Here at IHM, a group of
parishioners will begin the 33-day devotion individually on May
11 and will get together as a group to do the prayer of
consecration on the feast day of the Immaculate Heart of Mary
on June 13 after the 8:30 a.m. Mass. Come and join us!
If you have any questions regarding this devotion or if you
would like to receive a copy of the complete packet of readings
and prayers, please contact Fr. Bill at bhao@ihmatlanta.org or
call 404-636-1418, ext. 242.
To Jesus through Mary! Ad Jesum per Mariam!

RCIA INQUIRY SESSIONS
Are you thinking about becoming Catholic or returning to the Church?
Or perhaps you're just curious about why we do some of the things
we do, or what the Church really teaches on certain subjects.
We have a small faith community that will meet monthly this summer to
help you explore these questions. Join us in the lower level of the church
from 7:30-9:00 p.m. You do not have to register, simply come and explore
the basics of Catholic faith in a friendly, informal setting. Contact Drew
Denton (ddenton@ihmatlanta.org) for more information.
PROCESO DEL RICA PARA ADULTOS Y ADOLESCENTES
El Rito de Iniciación Cristiana para adultos (RICA) es el proceso a través
del cual la persona se convierte en miembro de la Iglesia Católica Romana
Apostólica. Está destinado a servir a los no bautizados, a los que han sido
bautizados católicos pero que no han completado los sacramentos de
Iniciación y a los bautizados en otra religión que desean hacerse católicos.
Si usted o alguien que conoce desea recibir los Sacramentos de Iniciación o
simplemente quiere aprender más sobre la Iglesia Católica, lo invitamos
para que asistan a la sesión de pre-evangelización del RICA. Los
esperamos el 13 de mayo en la cafetería de la escuela de 6:30 p.m. a 8:30
p.m. Si tiene preguntas, contacte a Alicia Guerrero al 404-636-1418 x 227
o a aguerrero@ihmatlanta.org.

ACTIVITY OF THE WEEK
Choose one of the following activities as a
way to further reflect on the Sunday
readings:
 Go on a nature walk with your family and
collect tree branches. When you get
home, attach string to the branches and
create a mobile. Remind each family
member how Jesus is the vine, the
support in each person’s life, and how we
serve as branches to spread his word to
all.
 Talk about ways we stay in contact with
the vine that is Jesus. Do we take time
every day to pray? How often do we read
the Bible? Is there a quiet place where we
can go sometimes to be alone with God?
Are we fruitful vines?
 Discuss at the dinner table a good deed
that you will do for someone this week.
Ask each family member to talk about
how he or she will help spread the
kingdom of God.
ACTIVIDAD DE LA SEMANA
Elija una de las siguientes actividades para
seguir reflexionando sobre las lecturas del
domingo:
 Hagan un paseo familiar en la naturaleza
y junten ramas de árboles. Cuando
lleguen a casa, aten un cordel a las ramas
y creen un juguete móvil. Recuerde a
cada miembro de la familia de qué
manera Jesús es la vid, el apoyo de la vida
de cada persona, y de qué manera
funcionamos como las ramas para
difundir su palabra a todos.
 Conversen sobre las maneras en que
permanecemos en contacto con la vid
que es Jesús. ¿Dedicamos tiempo todos
los días a orar? ¿Con qué frecuencia
leemos la Biblia? ¿Tenemos un lugar
tranquilo donde podemos ir a veces para
estar solos con Dios? ¿Somos ramas que
dan fruto?
 Comente en la cena acerca de alguna
buena obra que hará por alguien esta
semana. Pida a cada miembro de la
familia que diga cómo ayudará a
extender el Reino de Dios.

STEWARDSHIP
LOVE ACTIVELY
It isn’t enough to say we love God and others, we must show our love by acting on it; serve regularly
in a parish ministry, soup kitchen, food pantry, homeless shelter, hospital, assisted living facility, with
a family member or neighbor who is ill or elderly, or with children. As Blessed Mother Teresa
reminded us, we can do small things with great love!

May 3: Are You Ready for Summer Travel?
We don’t always like to think of the “what if” but today I want you to think of the “what if” as part of your travel
plans. This includes having a will that will provide for your family, provide for care of children and create a legacy
that you want to leave to the parish endowment fund. This is just good planning that all families need to do. If you
want to plan your will online you can go to the Catholic Foundation website and in the privacy of your home plan
your will. Then print out a PDF to take to an attorney to finalize it for you. If you are in need of an attorney, the
Catholic Foundation has a list of attorneys that specialize in wills and estate planning they will be glad to share with
you. The website to plan your will is www.cfngalegacy.com. For additional questions, you can contact Diane
