LOVE ONE ANOTHER

“Do not abandon yourselves
to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.”

Pope John Paul II

MOVING ON IN MY LIFE IN CHRIST

“You ask me how I know he lives, He lives within my heart.”
That is the great finale to a familiar and cherished hymn. It is also the experience of the steadfast Christian.
In his or her heart the Christian knows that Jesus is alive and in control and that He will come again, as He promised, to receive us unto Himself.
The secret of joyous living lies in knowing that whatever happens, Jesus Christ is real – He is really ours and we are really His.
Do you know that your Redeemer lives?
Then, by your life show that your Redeemer lives!

Thanks to Erica & Paul Glysz for recording the mass this past weekend. It was so very special to have mass celebrated
at St Clare.

As you participate in video mass in the weeks ahead, please use this communion prayer to place yourself in union with Christ

Spiritual Communion Prayer

My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there, and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

SURVIVING "SELF ISOLATION" A MESSAGE
FROM ASTRONAUT - Peggy Whitson

It’s actually very doable, but it’s very important to be able to interact well with the people you’re staying with, living with,” retired astronaut Peggy Whitson said about being isolated in space, during an interview with CBS This Morning.

Whitson broke the record in 2017 for spending the most cumulative days in 2017 with a total of 665 days aboard the International Space Station.
“A lot of people are trying to work from home and trying to be parents from home and have a family at home and so it becomes very challenging,” Whitson added. “But that’s just like what we did on board the International Space Station.”

Whitson also talked about what NASA astronauts go through to get ready for this isolation.

“We actually train our astronauts to improve those skills because we want everyone to play well with others on board the space station,” Whitson told CBS. “You don’t get to pick your crew, you’re just going to be up there and you have to make the best of whatever situation.”

So what do you do when you can’t get just step out of the door?

“I would do the extra work that I’d been thinking about doing,” Wilson said. “What are the things that you would do if you had more time? Is it to read? Is it to maybe write poetry or do art? What is it that has been the thing that has been in the back of your head?”
