RESPECT LIFE

Father, keep before our eyes the suffering and death of your Son.

May we find in him, strength for our journey and victory over every evil.

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Rectory Office will be closed on Good Friday, March 30th

through Easter Monday, April 2nd

Oh God,

Help me not to seek my own interests

But share the suffering and the joy

Of my brothers and sisters,

Ready to carry the weight

Of the poorest and the weakest

And thus to become

A sign to the world,

The sacrament of your love

For one another and for all.

-Pope Francis

I Iwona Zaborowska & Peter Suligowsky

On Saturday, March 11 at the Lone Tree Manor banquet hall, the competition for “Queen of the Polish Parade” took place.

We are very proud of Kamila Wilczek, who participated in the competition and was chosen as MISS AUDIENCE (MISS PUBLICZNOSCI).

Kamila is our parishioner and is a member of the Polish Highlander group “Juchasi,” which was established at St. Francis Borgia Church two years ago.

Although Kamila was born here in the United States, she beautifully presented her Polish heritage and Polish highlander culture, which was passed on to her by her late grandma.

We congratulate Kamila and wish her all the best in future endeavors.

W sobotę, 11 marca w sali bankietowej Lone Tree Manor odbyły się Wybory Królowej Parady 3 Maja.

Jesteśmy bardzo dumni z Kamili Wilczek, która brała udział w tych wyborach i wybrana została na MISS PUBLICZNOŚCI.

Kamila jest naszą parafianką i członkiem grupy góralskiej "Juchasi", która od dwóch lat działa przy parafii Św. Franciszka Borgia.

Kamila, chociaż urodzona w Stanach Zjednoczonych przepięknie zaprezentowała swoją polskość oraz kulturę góralską, którą wszczepiła jej śp. Babcia.

Serdecznie gratulujemy Kamili i życzymy jej dalszych sukcesów życiowych.

PONIEDZIAŁEK, 26 MARCA

5:00 PM - 8:00 PM

W Wielki Piątek, 30 marca i w Poniedziałek Wielkanocny, 2 kwietnia

biuro parafialne będzie zamnknięte.

W poniedziałek Wielkanocny, 2 kwietnia zapraszamy na Msze Św. w j. polskim

na godz. 10:30 rano lub 7:00 wieczorem.

Niedziela Palmowa obchodzona jest bezpośrednio przed Niedzielą Wielkanocną,

jest więc wstępem do Wielkiego Tygodnia – czasu pogłębionej refleksji i zadumy nad Męką

Pańską. Samo święto jest jednak radosne, gdyż odnosi się do

wydarzeń, które mają pozytywny wydźwięk. Oto bowiem

wszystkie cztery Ewangelie (Marka, Łukasza, Jana oraz

Mateusza) opisują triumfalny wjazd Jezusa do Jerozolimy.

Ewangeliści opowiadają o tym, jak Chrystus dosiadający osiołka wjechał od strony Góry Oliwnej

do Jerozolimy w chwale i przy

radosnych okrzykach wiernych. Rzucali oni

na drogę swoje płaszcze oraz liście

palmowe, by wyrazić hołd i uwielbienie dla

Syna Bożego.
