We are very proud of our Madonna University graduate Edwina. She finished her courses last December and is a 2026 Graduate of Madonna University, Livonia, MI. In January she got a job in a bank. Her skills, leadership, knowing three languages raised her to supervisor. We congratulate Edwina and continue to pray for her and her family.
During the months of January and February Jean Marc Julien, from Chicago, IL with Peterson, supervisor of the Felician Mission Computer lab, led an online class on Web Development. Jean Marc is a Haitian American whose dream is to PAY IT FORWARD for the people of his country. God had plans for him as he got to know us through Peterson, who took one of his online courses a year ago. This team is a match made in Heaven. For seven weeks 8 students with some understanding of the computer participated.
On Monday, April 27 the group met for a graduation ceremony to be recognized for their accomplishment and to receive a certificate of completion of the course.
We always begin with prayer!Peterson welcomes all to the ceremony. With Jean Marc on the screen.
2 members pf the class could not make it for the ceremony but with us in spirit.
After the ceremony the group celebrated with sandwiches, soda, and one of Sister Julitta,’s famous cakes.
On the vigil of the Second Sunday of Easter, also known as Divine Mercy Sunday some of our young adults for Mass in our chapel.
On Divine Mercy Sunday we gathered at 3 p.m. the Hour of Mercy for a Holy Hour and praying the chaplet of Mercy.
“I am love and mercy itself. … Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet. … My mercy is greater than your sins, and those of the entire world. … I let My Sacred Heart be pierced with a lance, thus opening wide the source of mercy for you. Come then with trust to draw graces from this fountain. … The graces of My mercy are drawn by the means of one vessel only, and that is trust. The more a soul trusts, the more it will receive.”
The day began with glorious sung Morning Prayer with those who live with us in the Haiti Mission. After the reading of the Word of God, we shared the power and meaning of Resurrection to us personally.
By most ancient tradition, this is the night of keeping vigil for the Lord (Ex 12:42), in which, following the Gospel admonition (Lk 12:35-37), the faithful, carrying lighted lamps in their hands, should be like those looking for the Lord when He returns, so that at His coming He may find them awake and have them sit at His table.
Exultet is sung!
After the Liturgy of the Word, we had 30 people welcomed into the Church with Baptism, Confirmation and Communion.
Christ is Risen, Alleluia! He is truly Risen, Alleluia!
