8:00am Souls in Purgatory Catholics believe "Christ's resurrection is a real
Friday, April 21 event, with manifestations that were
6:30am † Sylvia Klages by Louise Blaha historically verified" (CCC 639). For instance,
8:00am Anna Stella Tondo by the Duhamel Family "The faith of the first community of believers is
Saturday, April 22 based on the witness of concrete men known to

5:30pm Living & Deceased Members of K of C the Christians" (CCC 642): the Twelve Apostles
Sunday, April 23 plus at least five hundred other witnesses;

6:00pm Pro Populo did not at once believe the news of the
Resurrection" (CCC 643). Rather than being
† Denotes Deceased Person consumed by mystical fervor, the Gospels
describe a community demoralized, scared and
filled with doubt. Thus, belief in the
Resurrection was not born of the Apostles'
faith, but their faith was born of a real
encounter with the Resurrection.
Celebrating 22 years of Solemn
Eucharistic Adoration
this Divine Mercy Sunday
Hoy estamos celebrando 22
años de Adoración Eucarística
Solemne en nuestra parroquia
WE’VE MISSED YOU!
Do you or someone you know long to come “home” to the Catholic Church? Do you feel like you are not
welcome to come back? Do you have questions about possible issues with returning to church? If you are a
Catholic who has been away from the church for any reason, please know that we have been praying for and
thinking about you! We invite you to explore becoming an active part of our church family
through the Landings Program.
LANDINGS is an eight-week program that offers “a safe place to land,” a place for listening and for being
heard, a place for asking questions and for reconnecting with the faith as an adult. If you are interested in
more information, please contact Barb McFalls at 865-202-3883 (text or call) or barbmcfalls@yahoo.com
The St. Paul Street Evangelization Ministry invites you to join our next Zoom series
which will feature Jeff Cavins discussing- “The Letter of James.” Jeff Cavins is a
well-known American Catholic evangelist, author, and biblical scholar. He was a
Protestant pastor before his return to the Catholic Church. He is the creator of
The Great Adventure Bible Study program, and was the founding host of the
Television Show "Life on the Rock" on EWTN. The Letter of James is to the New
Testament what Proverbs is to the Old Testament. James led the Jerusalem church
for more than a decade prior to his martyrdom in AD 62. He was an eyewitness of
the Resurrection. He presided over the Council of Jerusalem and was acknowledged
by Paul as a pillar of the community. His standing as “a servant of God and of the
Lord Jesus Christ” is the basis of his authority to address the churches. James was
not only a leader, he was also a man of wisdom who taught the wisdom of the kingdom of God is a style
reminiscent of Jesus himself. An outline of the material will be provided for each presentation. The weekly
presentations, which will be on Thursdays at 7:00 p.m., (with a repeat on the following Tuesdays), are listed
below:
Schedule:
Session 8. James 4:11-5:6: A Wise Perspective for Living April 20th (repeat April 25th)
Session 9. James 5:7-12: The Wisdom of Patience April 27th (repeat May 2nd)
Session 10. James 5:13-20: The Wisdom of Confession and May 4th (repeat May 9th)
