Things Above from Fr. Bilot
Remember last summer, I was
commenting on our “resident” hawk
who likes to dine in our backyard on
occasion? Well, we have another fairfeathered friend who is lodging here for
a couple of days during his migration.
We have a beautiful heron who has
been stopping by our fish pond to see if
there is a meal available. I am not sure
if he was able to secure a couple
(ok...a few) fish for his lunch or dinner, but he has graced us
with his presence. We are blessed to have beautiful
grounds for God’s creatures to explore and take advantage
of our gracious hospitality! See page 12 in The Infant.
Last week, Tim Horst and I had an opportunity to read to
the elementary school students during the celebration of
National Reading Month (March). I do enjoy reading to the
children, whether it's first grade or eighth grade. It seems
that we all like to sit back and let someone tell us a story.
And, if you don’t show the pictures to the students, you will
certainly hear about it!
As I reflected on my reading to the children, I realized
that two of the books were about faith, Jesus and the great
gift of Easter. I am so grateful that I was able to go into the
school, read to the students, and not have to worry about
what I say or do regarding my faith and religious beliefs. It
is also very edifying to talk with our public school students
during Religious Education classes so that they learn about
the values of our beliefs and how to speak openly about our
faith in the Lord.
We sometimes tend to take our faith for granted. We
need to remind ourselves constantly that attending Mass
and professing our faith is a freedom. We are truly blessed
in America, and I am grateful to our founding Fathers that
they established a land where we can pursue our faith in
freedom and security. May we always attend Mass in
gratitude for these blessings received.
As we enter into the final weeks of Lent, many people
will use this time to celebrate the Sacrament of
Reconciliation. I urge everyone to avail themselves of
receiving this Sacrament.
We have confessions on
Tuesday at 6:30 PM, Saturday at 3:00 PM and after the
4:30 Mass. We will also have additional confessions on
Monday, April 14 at 11:30 AM and 7:00 PM.
Blessings,
Fr. Jim Bilot

Spring is here! Or, at least, it feels like it.
Like many of you, I've been eagerly
waiting for the spring weather. I did,
however, really enjoy the snow and cold
that we had this winter (the snow more
than the cold.) It had been several years
since we had a “normal” Michigan winter.
Some would say, though, that this winter
was hardly normal. I hope you kids took
advantage of the snow by going sledding,
skiing/snowboarding, building snowmen and snow-forts, and
maybe even having a (playful) snowball fight—just not on
parish property! The beautiful thing about Michigan is that by
the time you're finally getting tired of the cold and snow, or by
the time you can't stand the scorching heat and thick humidity,
a change is coming. I am ready for it! I'm very excited to wear
shorts, go swimming and fishing, and simply to go running
without wearing a hat and gloves! (For the past week,
thankfully, it's mostly been shorts and a t-shirt!)

This weekend, Fr. Bilot, Fr. Bechill and I have been taking
turns playing the role of the bishop in the Divine Child High
School musical, Les Miserables. If you're reading this on
Saturday, come watch the students and me in the 7:30pm show
tonight. If you're reading this on Sunday, I sure hope that I
didn't mess up last night!
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
Baseball is back. Basketball is (sadly) over—for the
Wolverines and Spartans, at least. ...And Easter is coming! The
Lord's triumph over sin and death—for you! The Light of the
world, the warmth of the Risen Son, the Fountain of living
water, the peace and joy and glory of the risen Jesus Christ is
coming... are you ready?!
Tim
The worship of the Eucharist outside of the Mass is of the
highest value in the life of the Church. Please visit our Lord in
our chapel any day or time or come to Tuesday Exposition in
the church from 9am-7pm.
Many parishioners have signed up to spend an hour with our
Lord, but we are always in need of more adorers, especially
Wednesday through Saturday evenings.
For more information, please call Dina at 734-718-2873 or email
at [email protected]
Midweek Bible Study!
With seminarian, Tim Horst
Wednesdays at 7pm in the
High School Learning Center
Join us as we study and discuss the readings for the
upcoming Sunday Mass. Feel free to come one week,
several weeks, or every week!
Jesus said to Saint Faustina:
“When you go to confession, know this, that I am waiting for
you in the confessional. I am only hidden by the priest, but I
myself act in the soul. Here the misery of the soul meets the
God of Mercy. From this font of Mercy souls draw graces
solely with the vessel of trust. If their trust is great, there is no
limit to My generosity.” (Diary of St. Faustina, VI 6-7)

Father Bechill’s Orations
“Now as they were eating, Jesus took
bread, blessed it, and broke it, and
gave it to the disciples and said, take
and eat; this is my body.”
Matthew 26:26
In two weeks, we will make our
yearly endeavor into Holy Week.
Holy Week is Holy because Jesus
accomplished the great gift of our
salvation. In his Incarnation as man, Jesus gave us
redemption, which is the call to be holy. Jesus not only
redeems, he saves. There is something more God wants
to give us – his very life.
Bread is the very staff of life. Without food we
cannot live. Just as we nourish the body (or starve it), we
nourish the heart and soul. In the Last Supper, Jesus is
celebrating the Passover Meal with his Apostles. He is, at
the same time, celebrating the memorial that Moses
imparted to the children of Israel and doing something
new – Jesus is the bread and wine of this meal. You may
have run across folks who are rather anti-ritual, because it
involves the lived tradition of people. The “blessing” that
Matthew refers to in the above quote is the Passover Rite
of Israel. Jesus does not just “make this up.” The
Passover has been present ever since Israel was lead out
of Egypt.
Jesus commanded us to “do this in memory of
him.” He has renewed and fulfilled the promises given to
our forebears. Jesus invites us to be participants in this
new rite. This reality flows out of our Churches and into
the world. This “memory” cannot just be enacted… it
must flow out of our Church and out of us!
Jesus breaks bread and he also willed that he be
broken. The death of Jesus is our death to sin. Our
conformity to the Cross of Jesus is his life poured into us.
The Resurrection is the final victory over every sting of
death and corruption.
In the face of death, even Jesus is deeply troubled
and crushed in spirit - that is what John tells us in today's
Gospel about the raising of Lazarus.
As we round out this Lent, take time to enter into
this gift of holiness. I hope Holy Week will be Holy for
you.

Meet Catechumen Greg Wojcichowski: Joining the RCIA has
been one of the best things that I have ever experienced. Since
joining I have learned to become one with God and learned a great
deal about the mystery of the church. I am excited for the day when I can fully participate in
the Eucharist and all that the church offers. Thank you to Samantha, Father Bilot, Father
Bechill, and my sponsor Megan for making this the best possible experience.
Meet Candidate Anita Guajardo: I thank all my family for being a living model of faith
and for embarking on this journey with me. Their values, commitment and caring hearts
have helped make this experience a beautiful one, and have helped inspire me to
strengthen my spiritual life. May God bless you all for your commitment to walk with me,
leading by example when the path wasn't so clear, waiting for me when difficulties slow
my pace, and offering to fly with me when my spirit wants to soar. Your kindness and
loving hearts will always be gratefully treasured.
Meet Catechumen Jessica Mortier: I started taking RCIA because I had a thirst for
knowledge and I saw the joy that God brings people. Since I began my journey, I have felt
this joy firsthand. Seminarian, Tim Horst, also asked us what brought us here and how we
feel it’s impacting our lives now. I want to be more involved with my faith and I want God
in my life. I did not have a religious upbringing. I have always felt that something was
missing in my life, and this just feels right. There were times I can remember when I was
young I used to try and pray, but I never had any guidance, and I yearned for something
beyond my understanding. I now believe that yearning I felt was coming to know God. I
look forward to accepting Jesus into my heart and I am so excited and happy with these
experiences that are bringing me closer to knowing & loving God. I believe it’s been
impacting my life in such a positive way. My experiences learning who God is and what
Jesus did for us has me questing ‘being the best version of myself’ in a new light. I’m so thankful for my boyfriend, and sponsor,
and the Bustamante family for sharing the love of God with me. I often wonder where I might be on this spiritual journey
without them and I don’t know that I can say I’d be headed on it. They have all supported me
and for that I am so appreciative.
Meet Candidate Sean Horvath RCIA has been very informative and helpful in my journey
to becoming a confirmed Catholic. My faith and knowledge of Catholicism is continuing to
grow with the help of RCIA. Gaining knowledge in class on Tuesday nights and attending
Mass on Sundays has really impacted my life as a Catholic and
has been a true blessing. I am looking forward to becoming a
confirmed Catholic so my relationship with Jesus can continue
to grow and I can accept the sacrament of Marriage with my
Fiancée, Bonnie Ballog, my sponsor who has been a huge help
in the process.
Meet Catechumen Tyler Greene: I joined the RCIA program after my introduction to the
Catholic faith by my fiancée, Justina Nagorka. Constantly moving to cities growing up, I never
felt like I had been part of a larger community practicing one faith. As I progress through the
program, I feel more confident in my beliefs and abilities to be a representative of the Church and
its teachings. When the program concludes, I hope to use the knowledge I have gained to further
cultivate my spiritual development as well as influence those around me in a positive light.

Archdiocesan News
The Church Witnesses to the Truth About Marriage
“Marriage has come to us as a gift of God in establishing
the order of nature. The Catholic community in southeast
Michigan will continue to give witness to the truth that
marriage is between one man and one woman, which is
the foundation for the flourishing of society.” -- Archbishop
Allen H. Vigneron, March 21, 2014
Reversing the will of Michigan voters, a federal judge
recently struck down Michigan law confirming the truth
that marriage is an institution between one man and one
woman. This decision is part of an ongoing legal process
by which same-sex couples can be “married” in our state.
Archbishop Vigneron and Michigan’s diocesan bishops
have come to the defense of traditional marriage,
speaking collectively through the Michigan Catholic
Conference, the Church’s public policy voice in the state.
As the case continues to move through the courts, the
bishops have emphasized their opposition to legislatively
or legally redefining marriage, while stressing that “it is
necessary to state clearly that persons with same-sex
attraction should not be judged, but rather accepted with
respect, compassion and sensitivity”
To learn more, visit the Michigan Catholic Conference
online at www.micatholic.org.
Tuition Assistance Program (PSAS)
Who can apply? Catholic Children (K - 12th grade) residing in the six
counties of the Archdiocese of Detroit are eligible to apply.
The PSAS form is also used for Divine Child financial need based
grants. Families will not be eligible for DC assistance unless the
PSAS form is submitted.
New this year: The pastor’s signature, of the family’s home parish, is
now required on the PSAS form. Please allow extra time to obtain his
signature.
How Do I Apply? The PSAS form can be obtained at the
Archdiocesan website at www.aod.org. Click on Catholic Schools
and then on Tuition Assistance. Forms are also available at the
Rectory Office and must be completed and mailed to PSAS along with
a check for $22, to cover the cost of the evaluation and processing.
The Archdiocese of Detroit will notify families who qualify for the
grants in July.
Application Deadline: April 15, 2014.
