Pastor’s Corner Dear Parishioners,

Our high school has begun classes and our grade school

begins on August 29th. Construction continues at both schools!

Registration continues for our Oneight Confirmation program

(high school), Edge program (middle school) as well as our initiation programs for our

adults. The Youth Ministry office is located at the Life Teen House on Chestnut Ave.

You can enter from our parking lot. Contact our youth ministers at x381. If you are an

adult (or child over the age of 7) and are interested in pursuing baptism, first

communion and/or confirmation, please get in touch with our RCIA director, Sandra

Rodas, ext. 211. She is also reachable at rel-ed@hfglendale.org. Her office is located

upstairs at our grade school.

MASS ON THE GRASS is almost here!!! This is our annual outdoor Mass set

up on Louise St. between Elk and Lomita Avenues. The street will be blocked off and

the Mass takes place at 5:30 PM on Sunday, September 10th. Please mark the date!!

Continued from last week’s pastor column from The Priest magazine (March

2016) by Dr. Decelles (who had been diagnosed with ALS):

“I pray for the salvation of all human beings, even those whose lives don’t

seem to offer much hope of salvation: Judas and Hitler, Stalin, Mao Tse Tung, Pol Pot,

Idi Amin, and Saddam Hussein. Since God is eternal and outside time, I pray that He

might help with His grace these men who have already died. I pray that if they are in

purgatory, they might be ushered into paradise according to His knowledge and

wisdom, justice and mercy. I pray for every man, woman, and child alive now who will

die in the future, and every person to be born and die in the future. I pray that all will

freely choose salvation. In a special way, I pray for members of any extended family

who lived or died in less than ideal fashion.”

“Jesus invites us to embrace unavoidable suffering as He did. ‘Take this cup

away from me. But let it be as you, not I would have it’ (Mk 14:30-36). Jesus’s invitation

is actually presented as a condition of discipleship. ‘If anyone wants to be a follower of

mine, let him renounce himself and take up his cross and follow me’ (Mk 8:30). ‘Cross’

here may refer first and foremost to a person’s vocation with the hardships that it

inevitably contains. But it also includes the sufferings that are part and parcel of the

human condition. These have to be embraced. Freely accepted bodily suffering is a

powerful witness to the reality and life of Jesus.

“It is not abnormal in the midst of physical and mental suffering to feel

abandoned by God. Jesus experienced that himself. ‘My God, my God, why have you

deserted me’ (Mk 15:34). Although Jesus is quoting these words from Psalm 22:1, they

represent His feelings. Jesus, however, did not lose hope in the Father, and neither

should we. God permits suffering, but He never abandons. He gives us the grace we

need to cope with our situation. ‘Come to me, all you who labor and are overburdened,

and I will give you rest’ (Mt 11:38). If people give good gifts to their children, ‘how much

more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask Him’ (Mt 7:11). With

God to help us, sickness should not cause us to fear. ‘God himself has said, “I will not

fail you or desert you, and so we can say with confidence: ‘With the Lord to help me, I

fear nothing”’” (Heb 13:5-6).

Summer peace and blessings -

More Parish News

At all special celebrations at Holy Family, including Christmas and Easter, the

priests and deacons wear matching vestments to celebrate the mass. Our

current vestments are over 25 years old and need to be replaced. If you would

like to sponsor one of the vestments, your name or a memorial name for a

loved one can be embroidered on the inside back flap of the vestment. We are

hoping to fund this project so we can use the new vestments for Christmas. All

our old vestments will be donated to our sister parish in Haiti. If you would like

to sponsor a vestment, please contact Deacon Ron Baker at

dn-baker@hfglendale.org or 818-247-2222 x552 or Cecile Nouh at x223.

Teach kids when to say

something

It is important to help children

understand the difference

between telling on others and sharing information that

could help keep themselves or someone else safe. Teach

children about secrets that are okay (a surprise birthday

party), and secrets that are never okay (don’t tell mom or

dad that...), and, perhaps most importantly, what to do if

someone asks them to keep a bad secret. Speaking up

can save a kid from harm or abuse. To request a copy of

the VIRTUS® article “To Tattle or Protect”

email jvienna@la-archdiocese.org or call (213) 637-7227.
