Family Prayer
L oving and faithful God, through the years the people of our archdi-ocese have appreciated the pray-
ers and love of Our Lady of Prompt Suc-cor in times of war, disaster, epidemic and illness. We come to you, Father, with Mary our Mother, and ask you to help us in the battle of today against violence, murder and racism.
We implore you to give us your wisdom that we may build a community founded on the values of Jesus, which gives re-spect to the life and dignity of all people.
Bless parents that they may form their children in faith. Bless and protect our youth that they may be peacemakers of our time. Give consolation to those who have lost loved ones through violence.
Hear our prayer and give us the persever-ance to be a voice for life and human dignity in our community.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Our Lady of Prompt Succor, hasten to help us.
Mother Henriette Delille, pray for us that we may be a holy family.

“God exists: that is the real message of Easter. Anyone who even begins to grasp what this means also knows what it means to be redeemed.” Po-pe Benedict XVl
After forty days of preparation, the great day has come, “Christ is Risen!” No words can adequately express the meaning of this mystery, and yet it is also a reality. The stone has been overturned, His body is missing despite the presence of guards. On the evening of that day He appears to those gathe-red in the upper room cowering in fear that they will be dealt the same fate that He was on the pre-vious Friday. He greets them with words of peace and shows His wounds to the unbelievers. Glory be to God that He has opened the door to heaven and if we are faithful to Him in this life, we are all as-sured of eternal life with Him. All glory be to God, Alleluia!

Registration for Adult Volunteers
We now have the dates for Vacation Bible School set! This summer, VBS will run from Monday, July 9th-Friday, July 13th. VBS is a summer camp program that includes daily scripture review and activities about how God plays a role in our lives. This year’s theme, “Parade Around the Our Father,” where we learn about different Saints and also themes of Eucharist, Prayer, and Forgiveness, while also still making time to have fun.
Registration for Adult Volunteers (college-aged and older) has begun. Adult volunteers are necessary for Vacation Bible School to run smoothly, be organized, and most importantly, for the children to have fun and be safe. For any adults college-aged or older who enjoy working with children, are interested in pursuing a teaching or ministry career, or who may have children or relatives who would like to sign up as a camper or volunteer, this is for you.
Campers are Kindergarten-6th grade, while we are in-viting 7th-12th graders to serve as junior and teen vol-unteers. Registration for campers and teen volunteers will begin in mid-April.
Anyone who is interested in volunteering and serving at VBS, you may either print out the appropriate form from website, or sign up in back of church after Mass and bring forms back to the Church Office. There will be an information meeting for a chance to learn more, and also to meet and ask any questions so you can be supported. Please sign up soon, as we are trying to get as many adult volunteers as we need before Camper Registration starts. You may contact: Jacques De-louche or Ryan Foulon at the Church for questions. Thank you very much and hope to see many of you on this thrilling experience. God Bless You.
Everyone at Divine Mercy Parish LIFE TEEN and Edge ministries wishes you a joyful Easter! Today as we celebrate Christ’s victory over death, we agree with the LIFE TEEN author that through the like Jesus we are “Able to defeat death (by) com-plete obedience to the will of God.” We invite you to join us for a LIFE TEEN or Edge event as we ex-plore the truths of our wonderful Catholic faith!

Inscripción para Voluntarios Adultos
¡Ya tenemos las fechas para la Escuela Bíblica de Vaca-
ciones (VBS)! Este verano, VBS se llevara a cabo entre el lunes 9 de julio-el viernes, 13 de julio. VBS es un programa de campamento de verano que incluye diariamente exami-nar la escritura y actividades sobre cómo Dios juega un papel en nuestras vidas. El tema de este año, "Desfile al-rededor del Padre nuestro," donde aprenderemos acerca de diferentes Santos y también los temas de la Eucaristía, Oración y Perdón, mientras que también todavía hacemos tiempo para divertirnos.
Ha comenzado la inscripción para adultos voluntarios (edades universitarias y mayores). Adultos voluntarios son necesarios para que la escuela bíblica de vacaciones fun-cione sin problemas, sea organizada y lo más importante, para que los niños diviertan y estén seguros. Para cualquier adulto de edad universitaria o mayor que disfrute trabajar con niños, este interesado en perseguir una carrera de ense-ñanza o ministerio, o que tenga hijos o familiares que de-seen inscribirse como un campista o voluntario, esto es pa-ra ti.
Los campistas son de Kinder a 6to grado, mientras que es-tamos invitando a 7-12 grado para servir como voluntarios jóvenes y adolescentes. Registro para los campistas y ado-lescentes voluntarios se iniciará a mediados de abril. Cualquiera que esté interesado en ser voluntario y servir en VBS, puede ya sea imprimir el formulario correspondiente del sitio web, o inscribirse en la parte posterior iglesia después de Misa y llevar formularios a la oficina de la igle-sia. Habrá una reunión de información para una oportuni-dad de aprender más y también a conocer y hacer cualquier pregunta para que podamos apoyarle. Por favor regístrese pronto, porque estamos tratando de conseguir a tantos vol-untarios adultos cuantos necesitemos antes del registro de los campistas. Puede comunicarse con: Jacques Delouche o Ryan Foulon en la iglesia para preguntas. Muchas gracias y esperamos ver a muchos de ustedes en esta emocionante experiencia. Que Dios les Bendiga.
"Dios existe: ese es el ver-dadero mensaje de Pas-cua. Cualquiera que inclu-so empiece a entender lo que significa también sabe lo que significa ser redimi-do. "Papa Benedicto XVl.
Después de cuarenta días de preparación, llegó el gran día:" ¡Cristo ha resucitado! ". Ninguna palabra puede expresar adecuadamente el significado de este misterio, y sin embargo, también es una reali-dad. La piedra ha sido volcada, su cuerpo falta a pesar de la presencia de guardias. En la noche de ese día, aparece a los reunidos en la sala superior encogidos de miedo por temor a que se les dé el mismo destino que el viernes anterior. Él los saluda con palabras de paz y muestra sus heridas a los incrédulos. Gloria a Dios que ha abierto la puerta al cielo y si somos fieles a él en esta vida, todos esta-mos seguros de la vida eterna con él. ¡Toda la glo-ria sea para Dios, Aleluya!
Reflexión de Anne-Marie d'Abadie Barrilleaux
¡Todos en los ministerios de LIFE TEEN y Edge de la Parroquia de Divina Misericordia te desean una fe-liz Pascua! Hoy, cuando celebramos la victoria de Cristo sobre la muerte, estamos de acuerdo con el autor de LIFE TEEN que a través de Jesús podemos "vencer a la muerte (por) completa obediencia a la voluntad de Dios". Te invitamos a que te unas a LI-FE TEEN o Edge evento mientras exploramos las verdades de nuestra maravillosa fe católica!
