Stewardship

A Way of Life

Stewardship Reflection

“Do not forget the LORD, your God.” May these words from today’s First Reading inspire us to always have faith in our loving God.

Living Stewardship . . . Pillar of Formation

For a long time, we have been unable to receive our Lord Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Let us remember how, during the lockdown and suspension of Masses, we have yearned to receive the Body and Blood of Christ. May that time of isolation renew our Faith in the Real Presence!

Sharing One’s Material Resources in the Parish

Staying Connected With

St. Agnes Cathedral

In this time of social distancing and as we resume gathering in some sense, we encourage you to keep in touch with us electronically:

Parish Website: Visit us at www.stagnescathedral.org to view our bulletin online and see other parish information.

Facebook: Find us at: Parish of St. Agnes Cathedral (www.facebook.com/saintagnescathedral/ )

Weekly Email: If you are not currently on our list and would like to receive email updates on parish news, please send your name, address and email

address with your request to our rectory office at: parishoffice@stagnescathedral.org.

See the broadcast schedule in this bulletin. Those who are most vulnerable and at a greater risk (due to age, preexisting health conditions or being in close proximity to vulnerable people) are encouraged to remain home at this time. If a person shows any symptoms of illness, they are asked to please not come to church.

5 THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST

From the Rector —

Dear Parishioners: As you may know, Governor Cuomo announced this past Saturday that Phase 2 of the easing of Covid19 restrictions would include Churches and Houses of Worship. I am pleased to say that Phase 2 began in Nassau and Suffolk Counties, on Wednesday, June 10th and we are, therefore, able to gather in the Cathedral for Mass. At the same time, however, because of the need to sanitize the Cathedral between Masses, we have had to alter our regular Mass schedule. Please see the following information regarding this revised schedule as well as the precautions that we must take as we gather once again for the Sacraments. It is with the desire that we gather reverently, safely and legally that I bring this information to you.

3. We ask that everyone (except for those who need to use the handicap door) enters the Cathedral through the doors on Quealy Place. You are asked, as you enter the Church, to keep a six foot distance from the person in front of you. A special team of ushers will assist you in finding a seat. For safety and order, a person will not be able to choose a specific seat.

4. Per state regulations gatherings cannot exceed 25% of occupancy and take into account social distancing of 6 feet between people or households. This means approximately 4 people in every 3rd pew with an occupancy of approximately 225 people.

5. Once we reach our occupancy limit, we will not be able to admit others. Your charity, cooperation and understanding are greatly appreciated.

6. Except for children under the age of 2 or people with breathing difficulties, a face mask or other facial covering must be worn in church. Please provide your own mask. We also encourage you to bring a bottle of hand sanitizer.

7. Holy Communion will be distributed at the conclusion of Mass. Those receiving will approach row by row (keeping a six foot safe distance from the person in front of you) and those not receiving are asked to leave at this time. Whether receiving or not, please leave quietly and reverently through the door to which you are directed by an usher.

8. It is preferred that Communion at this time be received in one’s hand. Please place your hand out very straight and flat to allow the minister to place the Eucharist safely in your hand in order to avoid contact with your hand. 9. The Sacrament of Reconciliation will resume normal scheduling starting this week. Please keep social

distancing in mind if there is a line for confession. 10. Upon exiting the Church, please do not congregate near the doors of the church. 11. Due to sanitary concerns, the bathrooms in the Cathedral will not be available. Please plan accordingly. 12. For safety reasons, the hymnals have been removed from the Church. There will be no entrance, offertory or

recessional procession. The Sign of Peace as well as the ministering of the Precious Blood will continue to be suspended. Holy Water fonts will remain empty; however, the Holy Water dispenser is available for those wishing to bring Holy Water home with them.

We look forward to coming together to celebrate the Eucharist again. Thank you in advance for your cooperation and patience during this time.

Sincerely yours,

Father Bill

Mass Intention

Book

Mass Intentions for 2021 are now available. Due to the restrictions imposed upon us because of COVID-19, we will be handling the scheduling of Mass Intentions a little differently than in the past. We will be accepting 4 Mass Intention requests for 2021 per person and ask that you mail your requests to the Rectory (29 Quealy Place, Rockville Centre, New York 11570), along with your offering of $20, for each Mass requested. Please make checks payable to “St. Agnes Cathedral.” The Mass Intentions will be reserved on a first-come, first-served basis. You can also place your requests in the mail slot of the Rectory front door. We will not be able to take any requests over the telephone or by email. We ask that you send the name of the person that the Intention is for and the date and time you are interested in. Please indicate if you would be flexible and allow us to schedule the Mass Intention as close to the date and time that you would like if your original date is not available. We will not be able to issue Mass Cards at this time. Be sure to include your name, address, telephone number and email address along with your request and we will send you confirmation of the dates that have been secured for your intentions. This information is for 2021 Mass Intentions only. We are not accepting any additional Mass Intentions for 2020 at this time. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Priesthood Ordination News From the Diocese of Rockville Centre: BISHOP JOHN BARRES TO ORDAIN TWO MEN

TO THE PRIESTHOOD ON JUNE 20, 2020 ROCKVILLE CENTRE, NEW YORK – May 29, 2020 – On June 20, 2020, the Memorial of the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Most Reverend John O. Barres, Bishop of Rockville Centre, will ordain two men to the priesthood for the Diocese of Rockville Centre. The Mass of Priestly Ordination will take place at St. Agnes Cathedral, Rockville Centre, at 10:00 a.m. on that day. The ordination will air live on Catholic Faith Network (CFN) at 10:00 a.m. It will be replayed later that evening at 8:00 p.m. At the time of this press release, pursuant to New York State Executive Order, religious gatherings of more than ten people is prohibited. As of the date of this release, this ordination will, unfortunately, not be open to the public. For the safety of all, only a limited number of individuals deemed integral to the celebration of the Ordination Mass will be permitted inside the Cathedral. If a subsequent Executive Order affecting public gatherings for religious services is enacted that impacts the celebration of this Mass, the Diocese will issue an updated statement. Please visit www.drvc.org and Diocese of Rockville Centre social media (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram) for updates. Those being ordained are the Rev. Mr. Rafal Borowiejski and the Rev. Mr. John Crozier. The newly ordained priests will be assigned to parishes in the Diocese of Rockville Centre where they will both serve in the role of associate pastor.

Congratulations to our own Deacon John Crozier, a graduate of St. Agnes Cathedral School, Kellenberg Memorial High School, St. John’s University and a St. Agnes parishioner. He will celebrate his first Mass on Sunday, June 21st, here at St. Agnes Cathedral.

Rev. Mr. Rafal Borowiejski

Rev. Mr. John Crozier

“We cannot tolerate or turn a blind eye to racism and exclusion in any form and yet claim to defend the sacredness of every human life.” Today I join the Church in Saint Paul and Minneapolis, and in the entire United States, in praying for the repose of the soul of George Floyd and of all those others who have lost their lives as a result of the sin of racism. Let us pray for the consolation of their grieving families

and friends and let us implore the national reconciliation and peace for which we yearn. May Our Lady of Guadalupe, Mother of America, intercede for all those who work for peace and justice in your land and throughout the world.” — Pope Francis - June 3, 2020

Expanding our Meals-On-Wheels programs;

Providing shopping services to those who are most vulnerable to the Pandemic;

are struggling in their respective

communities;
