90 Days of Grace:
40 days of Lent / 50 days of Easter
From the Ashes of Lent
to the Fire of a New Pentecost
I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have
loved you, so you also should love one another. When we
are the recipient of love from another person, expressed
in action, we know that we see it not as their acting out a
commandment, but as something that seems wonderful and
natural to us. However, when we are the ones to love one
another as Christ did, we may find it at times very hard to do.
The Holy Spirit is the one who makes it seem natural, in fact
supernatural, for us to be able to love with this type of Divine
Love. To love with a divine love is to accept and take on all
of the sacrifices involved in loving in such a manner. We are
now 68 days (over 2/3) into our 90 Days of Grace. Open your
hearts to this grace.
This week, think about how Jesus is speaking to you directly,
“Love one another.” Listen to him. Learn from him. Live with
and in him. Come into contact with the Risen Jesus through
the power of the Holy Spirit. You will find that love is the
way. In fact, for you, love will become the only way, because
it is the way of Jesus.
There are some changes being made to the Religious Education
program for those children who will be receiving Sacraments
in 2nd grade (Reconciliation, First Holy Communion) and
8th grade (Confirmation). These changes result in a two year
preparation program for these sacraments and will affect
those who will be rising 1st and 7th grade students, also. This
follows the practice of most of the parishes in our region. In
order for the children to be able to focus on learning about the
particular Sacraments in grades 2 or 8, other basic doctrine
and prayers need to be learned in the prior year (grades 1
or 7). Without this foundation, the children are not ready
for preparation for the Sacraments. For further information,
please see the box below or on the Spanish page.
My parents celebrate their 67th wedding anniversary this
coming Sat., Apr. 30. My father is suffering from the frailty
of old age and with the attendant loss of abilities that comes
with that. Also, my sister-in-law, Julie, in her early 50’s, is
being treated for a brain tumor. My niece’s husband, John, in
his early 30’s, is recovering from a form of cancer. I would
appreciate if you would keep these intentions in your prayers.
This week, priests stationed in the Arlington Diocese will be
at an annual convocation for our priests. Half of us will be
away earlier in the week; the other half later in the week. The
convocation is a time for Bishop Loverde and the priests to
update ourselves through continuing education. Please keep
the priests in your prayers.
This coming Friday and Saturday is our Parish Festival. Come
and help make this Festival a success. There is something for
everyone. We need your help as volunteers; we need you to
come with your families and friends. Also, the 5 Car Raffle
drawing for cars and money is on Saturday. I look forward to
seeing you.

classes. This is to help families adapt to the new twoyear sacramental program.
I mportant S acramental P reparation P rogram
C hanges for 2016-2017
For this coming year, the Religious Education (RE)
office has established a two-year sacramental preparation
program. This means that children and teens who are
receiving a sacrament will need to be enrolled in Religious
Education class during their sacrament year
and
the
preceding year. For example, a child who would receive
First Communion in second grade in 2017-2018, would
need to be enrolled in first grade for 2016-2017. This
program will include the First Communion, Confirmation,
and Christian Initiation sacrament preparation programs.
2016-2017: Program Transitional Year
•
This year, all children may be enrolled into their
appropriate grade regardless of whether they
completed a preceding year of religious education
April 24, 2016
•
Children who did not complete religious education
classes for 1st grade or 7th grade will need to
complete a transitional packet before they begin
classes in September, 2016. The packet will ensure
that children have the adequate preparation they need
as they approach their sacrament year. These packets
will be available in the RE Office and online at
w w w . a l l s a i n t s r e l i g i o u s e d u c at i o n . o r g by May
31, 2016.
•
Please note: If a child is scheduled to receive a
sacrament in 2017-2018 they need to be enrolled into
an RE class in 2016-2017 for their preparation year.
More information about RE class sessions is available by
calling the RE Office or on the RE Office website (see
above).

I mportantes C ambios del P rograma de
P reparación S acramental para el 2016-2017
Para el próximo año, el Departamento Educación Religiosa
ha establecido un programa de preparación sacramental
de dos años. Esto significa que los niños y adolescentes
que están recibiendo un sacramento tendrán que estar
inscritos en las clases de educación religiosa durante su
año de Sacramento y el año anterior. Por ejemplo, un niño
que recibe la primera comunión en el segundo grado en
2017-2018, tendría que ser inscrito en el primer grado para
2016-2017. Este programa estará vigente para la primera
comunión, confirmación, y los programas de Iniciación
Cristiana.
