~FROM THE PASTOR’S DESK~

Jesus was transfigured before them, and his clothes became

dazzling white, such as no fuller on earth could bleach them…

“Wonder”

“I know I am not an ordinary 10-year-old kid,” says Auggie, the center of the extraordinary film Wonder. We first meet Auggie wearing an astronaut’s helmet; when he takes it off, we see why he hides behind it: His young face is scarred, his earlobes are little flaps, his eyes tear-shaped slips, giving him a perpetual sad-puppy expression. He has endured 27 operations in his young life. But despite it all, Auggie is a great kid, funny and smart, good-hearted and kind, with a love for science, especially space travel. Auggie has been home-schooled by his mom in the Brooklyn brownstone. But the time has come for Auggie to enter fifth grade at a school. This is a big step for Auggie: his first experience interacting with other

kids and making a place for himself in the outside world. Mom and Dad are naturally anxious as to how Auggie will be treated by other stu-dents. And that becomes the focus of the film: Wonder is not just about a young boy coping with a congenital facial deformity– it’s also about those who love him and struggle with the impact Auggie’s issues have on them. There’s Auggie’s teenage sister, Via, a wonderful girl beginning her freshman year. Via dotes on Auggie– she’s been generous enough to allow her brother to be the center of their parent’s attention at the expense of her own emotional needs. Their mom, Isabel, is a brilliant and loving woman. She’s given up a promising career as a children’s book illustrator and left her master’s thesis half-written in order to care for Auggie– but, somewhere along the way, Isabel lost her ability to care for her daughter, Via, the same way she cares for her son. Nate is a loving dad who finds the good– and the funny– in every situation. He’s the quiet rock that Auggie can always depend on– espe-cially when Mom, however well-meaning, is in overdrive. As expected, Auggie becomes the target of bullies, led by Julian, the mean rich kid. But Auggie strikes up a friendship with a boy named Jack Will, who feels like an outsider himself because he’s a working-class scholarship student. The friendship is strained when Jack betrays Auggie in order to stay cool with Julian– but Jack soon realizes the hurt he has caused and the good friend he has lost. Auggie and Jack’s recon-ciliation is one of the best moments in the film. And we also find out what’s really going on with Via’s lifelong best friend, Miranda. At the start of the new school year, Miranda inexpli-cably snubs Via. At first, it appears that Miranda has become a selfish teenager who has “outgrown” Via– but there’s more going on than Via realizes. Miranda reveals her own struggles in an extraordinary act of selflessness. What we would expect to be the most satisfying moment in Wonder turns out to be the saddest: The principal has suspended Julian for his bullying. The principal meets with Julian’s parents, whose money and status give them an arrogant sense of entitlement. But by the end of the meeting, we genuinely feel sorry for Julian Wonder is a rarity: a family film about real families. The movie doesn’t sugarcoat the pain experienced by Auggie and his family and his friends. But we also see each person discover the best of who they are, the love they are capable of giving– and receiving.

Though he doesn’t realize it, Auggie is what Archbishop Desmond Tutu calls an “agent of transfiguration”: the means for others to real-

ize the “divinity” that exists within themselves that enables them to transform despair into hope, sadness into joy, anguish into healing, es-

trangement into community. Love that calls us beyond ourselves is transforming– such is the divinity that Peter, James and John “see” in Je-

sus on the mount of the transfiguration. The challenge of the disciple’s call is to allow that love to “transfigure” our lives and our world in the

grace of God’s love in our midst, in the humble and generous example of his Christ.

Dear Friends,

Last week we heard Deacon John invite us all to make a serious commitment in our response to the 2018 Bishops Appeal. Jesus reminds us that what we do for the least among us, we do for him. This past year, thousands of people– many of whom live and work in our community– went to Catholic Charities Regional Agency for assistance with food, shelter, clothing, utilities and other basic needs. Because of your sup-port for the Bishop’s Appeal for Catholic Charities and Church, these individuals and families received the help and hope they needed for a better tomorrow. Please help Catholic Charities help the poor by making a commitment to the 2018 Bishop’s Appeal.

I ask you to use the envelopes provided in the pews at church. Fill it out with your commitment or, if unable, simply mark unable to give at this time. Then you can drop it in the collection basket. This will exclude you from any additional appeal mailings. We met our goal last year and received a $2,246.76 rebate check.

Please pray for the men of the parish who are participating in the Renewal Weekend. We pray that God will bless them and their families.

Last week we celebrated the Rite of Election for those preparing for the Easter Sacraments. Please keep them in your prayers as we cele-brate the scrutinies with them, leading them to full initiation in the Church:

• March 3 at the 8:30 Mass

• March 11 at the 11:00 Mass

• March 18 at the 11:00 Mass

Today we hear the beautiful Gospel of the transfiguration. The transfiguration is a vision that holds glorious promise– but a vision that will only be realized at a heavy price. Accepting the God of blessing and joy is one thing, but when God asks us to give readily and humbly and sacrificially to others, to forgive others without limit or condition, we hesitate and begin to back away. The weeks ahead call us to descend the mountain with the “transfigured” Jesus and to take up our crosses– be they physical, emotional, economic, or intellectual– and realize the sacred goodness and value within each one of us to bring the glory of Easter into our lives and the lives of those we love.

God bless us on our Lenten Journey, Fr. Mike

“’Here I am!’ he answered.” Genesis 22:11

It is easy to say, “Here I am, Lord,” when we are kneeling in church. But how easy is it to say “Here I am, Lord,” when a neighbor needs our help, when we are invited to join a parish ministry, or when we are asked to provide financial support? Often times we are called when it’s not convenient for us. Discipleship is not always easy, most of the time it will make us uncomfortable and vulnerable.

Prayer Requests Listed below are members of our Parish Family who have requested our prayers. If you are seeking prayers for relatives and/or friends who are not members of our parish family, please call the Parish House or email us at [email protected] to the attention of Nicole. ** Names remain on the prayer list at the request of parishioners for three months. If extended prayers are needed, please send an email or call. Thank you.

Deacon John’s Focus on

Stewardship

We are Thomas and Mary Joy Stremlau. Both of us come from strong Catholic backgrounds and are blessed with similar values and be-liefs. Mary Joy has been a member of St. Patrick’s parish for about 25 years and Thomas since our marriage in 2013. To us, stewardship is much more than supporting the church fi-nancially. At St. Pat’s we are provided

with numerous opportunities to be good stewards. In addition to attending weekly Mass and monthly adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, we belong to Disciples of Mary and have both par-ticipated in Christ Renews His Parish. We are lectors and Ex-traordinary Ministers of the Eucharist. When distributing the Eucharist to the homebound, our reward is their JOY in receiv-ing Christ. Tom participates in the monthly distribution of food from the St. Pat’s Food Pantry. In addition, we work the festival and assist with setting the environment in the church for the liturgical seasons. Both of us sponsor children through Un-bound, which is an organization freeing people from poverty. God has blessed us in many ways and we must manage these gifts on HIS behalf. One day we will be asked to give an ac-count and we would each hope to hear, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

Eucharistic Adoration We will be having Exposition and Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament on Wednesday, February 28, beginning after 8:30 a.m. Mass. Adoration will close with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament at 7:00 p.m. All are invited to stop in church any time dur-ing those hours to spend some time in prayer and reflection with our Lord.

Renewal/Welcome Weekend Closing Masses All are welcome to attend the Men’s and Women’s Re-newal/Welcome Weekend Closing Masses. The Men’s closing Mass will be today, February 25, at 1:45 and the women’s will be held on Sunday, March 3, at 1:45. Please arrive 15 minutes early. Thank you for your support of the men and women participating in these Renewal/Welcome Weekends!

The Catholic Exponent For the second Sunday in Lent, we hear the story

of the Transfiguration, when Jesus took Peter, James,

and John to the mountaintop and revealed His glory.

How many of us would love to be with Jesus on the

mountaintop and see His glory? Perhaps we can’t go to

the mountain, but we can take a little time apart from the

hectic nature of our lives to reflect on God, His presence

and His glory. Our diocesan newspaper, the Catholic

Exponent, helps nudge us back to our awareness of

God’s presence. In addition to offering news about the

Church right here in our diocese and around the world,

the Exponent brings commentary, Scripture reflection,

and adult faith formation– all nourishing food for your

faith and life. Your support for the Exponent nurtures

not only you but also your fellow Catholics who are in

need of encouragement as well. Subscribe or renew your

subscription today by dropping “The Catholic Expo-

nent” envelope from your parish packet into the collec-

tion basket. Or call 330-744-5251 to request subscrip-

tion information. Remember God’s presence in your life. Read and support the Catholic Exponent.

Hope and Fasting “Fasting of the body is food for the soul.”

- Saint John Chrysostom

During Lent Catholics are called to days of fasting from food

and abstinence from meat as we refocus our discipleship. The goal of

fasting is to improve our relationship with Christ as we experience sacrifice in honor of his sacrifice for us. Fasting can help us feel con-

nected with Christ and solidarity with the poor. Many Catholics also

traditionally “give up” something for Lent. Here are some ideas to

make your Lenten sacrifice a hope-building exercise.

• Refrain from negative or hopeless comments; try saying things

only in positive ways.

• Avoid watching television, movies, or websites with negative

messages or dialogue.

• Give away items that are burdening you with clutter; find new

homes for them with a charity donation.

• Trade the time you usually spend on screens or sports viewing to

take walks with family or friends.

• Skip buying desserts or treats and use the money you save for

charity.

Cold and Flu Season Reminders During the cold and flu season, please remember

the following helpful and healthy reminders while at

Mass:

• General Considerations:

- Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when

you cough or sneeze or cough/sneeze into your

elbow.

- Wash your hands with soap and water fre-

quently. Alcohol based hand cleaners are also

effective.

- Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth.

• Sign of Peace:

- Do not be offended if someone chooses not to

shake your hand at the sign of peace. If you are

ill (and present at Mass), the appropriate response

to someone extending a sign of peace might be to

bow to them and say, “Peace be with you,” to

avoid contact while sick.

• Reception of Holy Communion:

- While it is the teaching of the Church that the

fullness of the Body and Blood of Christ is con-

tained in the Holy Eucharist under the form of the

host that is distributed at Mass, the Church has

also extended the privilege to receive Holy Com-

munion under the form of wine. However, if you

are feeling ill, please consider receiving Holy

Communion in the hand and refrain from receiv-

ing the Precious Blood until you are returned to

good health.
