Congratulations!
Happy Mother’s Day to all women of the parish. You truly deserve glorious accolades for all you do. Happy birthday to Fr. Sid who thanked God for his 84 years this past Tuesday! May they all have a wonderful day receiving God’s blessings and graces.
 
Other Collections
For all who can and are able to contribute, the gifts (monetary & prayers) are truly appreciated by our brothers and sisters in Christ at Catholic Home Missions (CHM). We were asked by Bishop John Kudrick to take a special collection for CHM during all May Liturgies. It will be used to strengthen the Catholic Church in the US and its territories in the Caribbean and the Pacific where resources are thin and priests are few. The appeal funds a wide range of pastoral services. Info at usccb.org/nationalcollections
The rectory heating system will need to be repaired this year. Of course there’s time until fall weather hits. We need your help (prayers, donations, fund raising labor) to have the work done in a few months.
Fund Raising

The farmers markets are now opening.  This is where we sell our Eastern European bake goods and it’s also a great way to evangelize.  There are two markets on Saturday morning this week. Next week a third market is being added on Tuesday afternoons. Please contact the rectory to volunteer at these important fund raisers. The parish needs the income for various projects. Thanks.
Please note that the baking this week is on Wednesday so the feast of the Ascension can be celebrated without performing undue work on the holy day. If you haven’t been able to help the baking efforts on Thursdays this may be your chance. Check your schedule and call the rectory if you can volunteer to help with making our delicious bake goods on Wednesday, May 16th.

Bright Week

Christ is Risen! Indeed He is Risen! Christós voskrése! Vo-ístinu voskrése! May the risen Christ bestow peace, health and happiness in this joyous season to all peoples of the world; especially St. Athanasius parishioners, guests, friends, neighbors and acquaintances. Our renewed spirit, honed by our diligence during the Great Fast, will continue to strengthen us to spread the Good News of Christ’s victory over Satan. Let us go forth and proclaim to others the truth of the Catholic faith through both word and deed – it’s God’s directive. As Fr. Sid has stated, “We have a good God” and “We have Holy Spirit power!” Sow plenty of positive, optimistic seed to all, every day, so that we can foster an upbeat and encouraging community. As we do for others, we do for ourselves. God has made it a win-win solution!
Events Calendar

  • Easter Basket Blessing will follow services today. Then we are having a feast eating from the baskets.
  • The next Ancient Healing Service is Wednesday, April 11 at 7 PM. Tell your friends.

 Food Pantry
To meet the continuing need of our local neighbors we are asking for non-perishable food and hygiene items (or money to purchase them) from you. During the Great Fast almsgiving is highlighted as a virtuous activity. Now that the Pascal season is started we need to continue donating to the poor. The St. Athanasius Church food pantry is one such outlet. Please be generous in this important ministry to those in need.
Easter Bake Goods
Thanks to those who helped with baking over the last few weeks. If you’re lucky we may have just what you want for your Easter season. Be sure to ask John to see what we have in stock for you.

2011-2012 Stewardship Appeal
Our parish goal is $1,400. Thus far we have 9 family pledges totaling $968 and $823 collected. We are encouraged to reach our pledged goal before the Great Fast ends. It will be a good gesture to Bishop John that as many families as possible donate even a small amount in gratefulness for providing the new icon screen to our parish.

Announcements
Events Calendar

  • The next Healing Service is scheduled for Wednesday, March 28 at 7 PM.
  • Next Sunday, March 25th, we will have an egg decorating class for those to learn how to make their 1st pysanka or hone their skills if they already know how to use the wax-resistance technique. Supplies (dyes, wax, etc.) will be provided. You can bring extra eggs if you wish.

 
Second Collection
Over 2 weeks ago the water supply system to the rectory’s boiler failed. After evaluating 3 options it was decided to replace the water feed unit with a properly sized tank and a new low water cutoff/pump control. The bill came to $3,651.00. Please mail us a contribution to help defray the cost.
Confession
On the inside of the bulletin you can see that Father Sid is available to hear confessions 1 hour prior to liturgy and immediately following the liturgy. Father is encouraging everyone to make a good confession during the Great Fast.
Bible Meditation
2 Thessalonians 2:9-12 is one of the most frightening passages in the Bible.  Do you see today’s world as being deceived with great delusion to take most everyone’s attention away from the truth?  The truth is the Word of God. Read the Bible every day asking the Holy Spirit to instruct you on the meaning behind the words. Then put these instructions from God’s words into practice in your life – each and every day. Be a good role model.
