Dear Lord Jesus and Mary, Mother of God, hold all these brave souls in the palm of your hand; comfort them and their families. Send angels of protection, love, and comfort to all the service men and women still at war, bring them home safely and comfort their families. We ask this through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

Take Five for Faith Rise up from sorrow
Easter is a season of joy, but it’s not always joyous for everyone. Perhaps a loved one has recently died or the anniversary of their death is at hand. How do you han- dle death and sorrow at a time of new life and joy?
Mary Magdalene grieved mightily at the tomb of Jesus, but he helped her let go of his earthly life, which had already given way to his resurrected life. With eyes of faith we, too, can begin to let go of the earthly presence of a loved one, trusting that they also live on in the lov- ing presence of God.

Right to Life-LIFESPAN Unplanned
The guest speaker at the Right to Life-LIFESPAN’s an- nual Celebrate Life! Dinner will be Ashley Bratcher, the actress that portrays former Planned Parenthood clinic director Abby Johnson in the movie Un- planned. Ashley took the role knowing there were risks to her future career. As she said, “I knew from the very beginning, they warned me, they said,
“You’re probably gonna get blacklisted. This could end your career.” I said, “I don’t care. It’s worth it.”
Ashley has her own prolife story to tell. Join us on May 7th for the dinner and to hear Ashley. For more information, please call the LIFESPAN office at 248- 816-1546.
May Crowning of Mary
Please join us for a May Crowning of Mary sponsored by the St. Perpetua Daughters of Isabella. The service will be in the main church on Monday, May 6, 2019. The service will begin with a procession at 6:30 p.m. to Mary at the back of the Church, led by the Knights of Colum- bus Color Corp, the celebrant, followed by the Daughters of Isabella, who will place the Crown on a stand next to the Blessed Mother, the children will follow and place flowers at the feet of Mary, and finally the rest of the congregation, not already seated, will process in. The K of C Color Corp. will remain while the rest of the con- gregation will then proceed to their seats and the service will begin.
At the time of the crowning, two representative of the D of I and the celebrant will escort the one who is to Crown Mary. We will follow the ceremony as pre- scribed in the Daily Missalette. At the end of the May Crowning Celebrations there will be a recessional hymn and all that are able, are invited to proceed to the chapel and participate in a Benediction and Rosary. Benediction and Rosary will be celebrated each Monday in May, the Month of Mary. Please come and help us celebrate Jesus Christ by honoring His mother at this joyous celebration.
Now, of course we all know that Christ, the Second Adam, is the King of Heaven. But if the Second Adam is the King of Heaven, then it is only natural for the Second Eve to be the Queen of Heaven. And this is something we see in the Bible. In Revelation 12, when we see Mary in heaven, clothed with the sun and standing on the moon, notice that she is wearing a crown of twelve stars on her head. How much more clearly could one signify that someone is the Queen of Heaven than by having her wear a heavenly crown made up of stars?
There are other aspects of Mary’s Queenship we could bring out. For example, the fact that Chris is King and Mary is his mother means that Mary is the Queen Mother -- the mother of the King. Please come and help us celebrate Jesus Christ by honoring His mother at this joyous celebration.
Thank you & God Bless, Deacon Bob
