POST-SUMMER CHALLENGES

With any luck, summer delights will continue a while past last weekend’s Labor Day: refreshing recreation (with maybe an occasional swim) or enjoyable relaxation on the deck (with tasty outdoor grilling). Truth is, for some of us, this year’s Labor Day came way too early. With many schools back in session for a while already, mealtimes and driving schedules needed readjustment to coordinate youth sports with adult commitments. Some religious education and parish programs resumed, too. No surprise, then, that this weekend’s scriptures sound a little like post-summer challenges. For instance, Wisdom reminds us that believers in God can never be content with “timid deliberations” and “unsure plans.” Paul challenges longtime friend and follower Philemon to “let the good you do be voluntary.” Jesus instructs “great crowds” traveling with him—including us—on three things necessary for all true disciples to accomplish. On this early autumn weekend, our scriptures describe disciples’ lifelong labors. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ!

A few days ago we began the work, which was announced a few months ago related to the installation of the fire protection system in the hall under the church. When, this job is completed, the work will move to our beautiful church. I am asking you for patience and kindness for the duration of this necessary time of work. Last week, the parking lot in front of our church was painted with tar. Next, all pillows in the church pews, the children's rooms, and in the choir loft were also washed. I am asking you all to care for the cleanliness of our church and all other parish buildings. Let's remember that this is also our HOME!!!

I also thank the following people for donating for the statue of the Jesus with the children:

Teresa & Krzysztof Harbut, Patricia & John Coleman, Krystyna & Tadeusz Marciniec, Helena & Jan Budz. I embrace each and all of you with my heartfelt and enduring priesthood prayer.

”Jesus, I Trust in You”! Fr. Mariusz

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Eastern Catholic and Orthodox Christians share a love for the Byzantine liturgy because it is during the Eucharist that

the Church is most true to its identity, expresses its integrity, and discovers its vocation. Eastern Catholic and Orthodox Christians celebrate essentially the identical liturgy, with only very slight variations. It is a fairly complex ritual weaving together three separate layers of prayers: a liturgy prayed in the sanctuary by priests, often hidden by a curtain or screen; a liturgy sung by the assembly and led by a deacon in front of a screen formed of painted icons; and a third layer of private prayer by the priest, who prays in support of the deacon and the faithful. It is an eyes-wide-open experience, gorgeous in visuals, and filled with the sound of God’s people singing prayer. The energy of the

worship centers on the presence of Christ, largely through an awareness of heaven touching earth when the Church gathers to celebrate.

In the late twentieth century, Latin Rite Catholics were encouraged to embrace a style of worship that was “full, conscious, and active,” a value that has never been lost in the East. The liturgy has great impact in its beauty, in its poetry and contemplation, and by the actions of bowing, signing with the cross, and chanting that are required of the assembly. Contact with the Eastern Church reveals some key values that have been obscured in our own Church and are slowly being recovered.

Moi Kochani Bracia i Siostry!

Rozpoczęliśmy kilka dni temu zapowiadane już kilka miesięcy temu prace związane z instalacją systemu przeciwpożarowego w sali pod kościołem. Później te prace przeniosą się oczywiście do naszego piękniejącego kościoła. Bardzo was proszę o cierpliwość i życzliwość na czas trwania tych koniecznych prac.

Ponadto w ostatnim tygodniu został wymalowany smołą pierwszy ogromny parking przed naszym kościołem. Zostały także wyprane wszystkie poduszki na ławkach w kościele, w pokojach dla dzieci i na chórze. Bardzo wszystkich proszę, abyście dbali o czystość naszego kościoła oraz dbali o czystość we wszystkich pozostałych budynkach parafialnych. Pamiętajmy, że to jest także nasz DOM !!!

Dziękuję także kolejnym ofiarodawcom za donację na figurę Pana Jezusa z dziećmi. Słowa podziękowań kieruję do Teresy & Krzysztofa Harbut, Patricia & John Coleman, Krystyny & Tadeusza Marciniec, Heleny & Jana Budz.

Wszystkich naszych parafian, modlących się w naszym kościele oraz wszystkich dobroczyńców ogarniam moją serdeczną i wytrwałą kapłańską modlitwą.

„Jezu, ufam Tobie”! Fr. Mariusz
