From the Pastor’s Desk Dear Parishioners, The work of "Faith in Our Future" continues throughout our diocese. As you may know, it is a process set in motion at the behest of Bishop O’Connell that brings teams of parishes together to devise a plan of action to face the great challenges of our future. The overall question the parish teams must answer is "How can we work together so that we can more effectively minister in the years ahead?" Changing demographics, the reduction in available priests, financial concerns are just some of the factors that are the driving force of this process. Bishop O’Connell has been very clear in stressing that there is no preconceived or even “secret” plan of action to be imposed on parishes and institutions of the diocese. "Faith in Our Future" is designed to work from the "bottom up" and not from the "top down. " It is a grassroots process whereby ideas and suggestions come from the parishes and then go to the bishop. Our parish is part of "Cohort 6" which comprises four parishes in addition to our own—St. Raphael-Holy Angels, St. Gregory the Great, St. Vincent dePaul (all of Hamilton) as well as St. John the Baptist, Allentown. Our cohort is meeting through the summer and will continue to work on ways that our group of parishes can collaborate at various levels to strengthen the Church’s ministry. Please take the time to read our bulletin articles about the process and should you have any concerns, ideas, or questions, please feel free to speak to me personally or send an email my way. Keep the process in your prayers. With affection, Msgr. Tom Gervasio

Mesaj ki soti nan biwo Kire-a Frè-m ak Sè-m yo: Travay "Faith in Our Future" ap kontinye nan tout Dyosez nou an. Kom nou konnen, se yon pwosesis ki an mouvman sou demand Evek O'Connell ki reyini ansanm pawas yo an ekip ki konsevwa yon plan daksyon pou fe fas a gwo defi nan lane kap vini yo, Kesyon jeneral ekip pawas yo gen pou yo reponn se: Kouman nou kapab travay ansanm pou ke nou kapab ministe efikasman nan lane kap vini yo? Evolisyon demografik, manke Pe, preokipasyon finansye, tout fakte sa yo se fos kap kondwi pwosesos sa a. Evek O'Connell tre kle nan ensistans ke pa gen okenn plas reyel sou menm plan daksyon "an sekre" yo dwe depoze nan pawas ak enstittisyon Dyosez la. "Faith in Our Future" fet pou travay "komanse anba pou rive anro" non pa "anro pou desann anba". Se yon pwosesis kote lide de baz ak sigjesyon yo vini de pawas yo answit yo ale jwenn Evek la. Pawas nou an fe pati "Cohort 6" ki gen ladann 4 pawas plis pawas nou an—St Raphael-Holy Angels, St Gregory the Great, St Vincent de Paul (yo tout nan Hamilton) avek St Jean-Baptiste ki nan Allentown. Cohort nou an ap reyini pandan sezon ete a epi li pral kontinye travay sou moyen ke gwoup pawas nou yo kapab kolabore a differan nivo pou ranfose ministe Legliz la. Tanpri pran tan pou w li atik nou yo ki nan bilten an sou pwosesis la epi si w ta gen nenpot konsen, ide oswa kesyon, pa ezite tanpri pale avek mwen pesonelman oswa kontakte m pa email. Kenbe pwosesis la nan lapriye w! Avèk afeksyon, Msgr. Tom Gervasio

Thursday, August 4 Memorial of St. Jean Marie Vianney

Please remember in prayer all priests on this their patronal feast. St. Jean, universally known as the “Curé d'Ars” (parish priest of Ars, France), died in 1859 and was a compassionate spiritual counselor who spent usually no less than 11 hours a day in the confessional in the winter and 16 hours during the summer.

A Summertime Reminder! Our way of life, with its emphasis on personal freedoms and on what is causal and comfortable, is bound to find its way into the choices we make in the realm of the spiritual. Our manner of dress can be a witness to our faith—a way of recognizing our church as the dwelling of the Most High and a privileged place of prayer. Various modes of attire denote the importance we attach to a particular place and to the people we encounter. Were we invited to a dignitary’s residence or even going to dine at an upscale restaurant, I doubt that any of us would consider wearing what is often seen at Mass. While not necessarily advocating very formal attire, coming to worship in clothing suited for a basketball court or the sands of the Jersey shore hardly seems appropriate for the Lord’s House. A non-believer in our midst could easily conclude that for many Catholics, worship is hardly an important event! What message do we want to give? Everyone is welcome in the Lord’s House, to be sure, but we should take the time and effort to remind ourselves and our fellow Catholics that Mass—our meeting with the Lord—is important! Appropriate attire also provides a respect for those who worship with us and preserves the modesty that we are called to practice. Not a few would play down the importance or need for such a notice, contending that these are but trifles that do not matter in the eyes of God. After all, Our Lord does not judge the exterior but the interior. This is true, but Our Lord was concerned with little things, observant of many details of worship. Externals do matter because they often reflect what we possess interiorly. We need the help of external signs as reminders of what is important. The aim of my message is not to upbraid any parishioners but meant only to summon us all to think a little more about giving witness to the sacred nature of our church and to respect all those who enter its doors. Think about it! Msgr. Gervasio
