Fifth Sunday of Easter May 3, 2015 Presentation Parish Divorced/Separated Support Group You don’t have to go through it alone Presentation Parish offers a weekly mutual-help support group for Catholics struggling due to separation or divorce. The support group meets on Wednesday evenings at 6:45 p.m. in the Log House, located just south of the church at 105 SW Murray Rd. This is an ongoing group and weekly attendance is not required. For more information, contact the Pastoral Care Office, 251-1102, or e-mail mschmidt@olpls.org. The Group is: • an experience of God’s love and strength • a way to regain self confidence • a positive way to see new paths in life • a place where anonymity and confidentiality is respected The Group is not: • a gripe session • a place to find a date • a negative experience • rigid Comments from participants: “I receive non-judgmental acceptance and learn from others who have bore the same trials as I have. It helps me learn to cope with the new issues that are in front of me.” “I had been divorced for 14 years when I first came. I thought I had moved as far as I could. The group assisted me in moving forward. Now I come for ongoing support and to assist others.” “The group helps me to realize that the roller coaster of feelings I have is normal as I experience the most traumatic events of my life. I cope poorly at times but have learned here that this will pass and to put faith in God. God will get me through this, I cannot do it alone.” “This group has helped me to realize that this is not my fault, and that there is strength from within.” “I can express my true feelings without being judged and without worrying that what I say will hurt someone. It helps me work through my issues and frustrations.” “This support group has benefitted me and assisted me to find my way through a difficult time. The group supports each other by listening to each other’s stories and provides moral support to the person who needs to verbalize their pain and heartache in a supportive and anonymous environment. I have learned to deal with the issues that come from divorce whether by sharing or by listening and learning.” “During my divorce process, this group has been my sounding board and my spiritual support. I have watched myself grow from a frightened individual to a strong and confident person.” 2 Thoughts From Fr. Tom In the Gospel for this Fifth Sunday of Easter Jesus makes another one of his “I Am” statements. He says: I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing. This image Jesus uses is really an invitation into a relationship with him. When we remain with Jesus and stay connected to him as a branch on the vine, we will bear the fruit of our faith. But as branches on the vine we also need to be pruned in order to bear more fruit. Jesus reminds us that we are pruned by his Word when we allow it to take root in our lives and are willing to follow his example of love. Do our words and actions reflect our connection to the Vine? In what areas do our lives need to be pruned so that we can bear the good fruit of our faith? Since the resignation of Bishop Finn, a number of people have asked me about my reaction to his resignation and what I think will happen in the future. While it is unfortunate that conditions existed for such a decision to happen, I do feel that a change of leadership was necessary in order for our diocese to move forward in good ways. Over the past several years, there has seemed to exist a fair amount of division among the people and the priests of our diocese. Some healing needs to happen in order to bring people together and unite around our common faith. When Archbishop Naumann, our Apostolic Administrator, met with the priests of the diocese a little over a week ago, he felt that his time as our interim leader would be short. While he acknowledged that there is no definite timeline for the appointment of our new bishop, he also mentioned that the circumstances of our situation would warrant a timely response. At this point, a priority for all of us should be to pray. Pray for a new bishop who can bring healing and unity. Pray for a new bishop who can inspire us in our faith and provide a vision that will build up the good work of the church here in our diocese. Please pray! May is the month of Mothers. We celebrate the gift of our mothers on Mother’s Day next weekend, May 9-10. We will offer a special blessing of mothers at all the Masses and also pass out Mother’s Day carnations.
