Ordinations Three transitional deacons and one permanent deacon were ordained for the Diocese of St. Cloud June 16th at St. Mary’s Cathedral. Congratulations to Rick Aubel, Mark Botzek, Gregory Sauer, and Dean Pawlowski. Though there are no ordinations to the priesthood in the diocese this year, this is also the time of year many priests celebrate their own anniversaries of ordination (including your parish pastor). As we reflect upon ordination and the role of the clergy in our lives and the Church, we also continue to pray for our bishops, priests, and deacons. We also pray for an increase in vocations and that many people would generously respond to the call to serve God and his people. I also want to address a recent article from the local newspaper about women priests in the Catholic Church. Though this brief bulletin article could never hope to cover all the theological, historical, and philosophical material necessary to do true justice to this topic, suffice it to say that the ordination of women priests is not possible in the Catholic Church. In 1994, Pope St. John Paul II made this as clear as possible in his letter Ordinatio Sacerdotalis when he declared: “Wherefore, in order that all doubt may be removed regarding a matter of great importance…I declare that the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women and that this judgment is to be definitively held by all the Church's faithful." In saying that the Church does not have the authority, it is acknowledging that what God has put forth, we cannot alter. To say that we know more than God who created us would be prideful arrogance. To think that Jesus was not “enlightened” or free enough and was forced to choose only men would be to effectively deny his transcendence and divinity. The newspaper article erred in stating that a women priest might be validly (though illicitly) ordained. To say that a sacrament is celebrated validly is to say that the proper effect of the sacrament takes place (e.g. the ordination actually happens). To say that it is celebrated licitly is to say that it is celebrated in accordance with Church law. It is possible that a sacrament may be valid but illicit. For example, a laicized or excommunicated priest is not to celebrate the Mass. But if he were to do so, the sacrament would be valid (the effect would take place and the Eucharist would be consecrated) but it would be illicit (against Church law). If that laicized priest tried to use non-wheat bread or non-grape wine (invalid matter), then the celebration would be both invalid (no sacrament takes place) and illicit (still against the law). The Catechism of the Catholic Church is clear that "Only a baptized man (vir) validly receives sacred ordination" (1577, emphasis mine).

This teaching does not deny the fundamental equality of men and women any more than the fact that only women can bear children does. The Blessed Virgin Mary is held in highest regard by the Church and as the pinnacle of all cre-ation. She was certainly more holy than the Apostles but was not called to service of the Church in the same way they were. Not being chosen for the ministerial priesthood or to the same mission proper as the Apostles does not in any way diminish her dignity. There is much more that could be said on this topic. But I wanted to make sure that our parishes are properly in-formed of what the Catholic Church teaches, and not con-fused or mislead by half-truths and inaccuracies published by outside sources. If you have any questions on this matter or other matters of the faith, please feel free to contact me.

Fr. Timothy

Lectio Divina - Tuesday Morning at St. Joseph All women of St. Michael’s and St. Joseph’s are invited to reflect on the Sunday readings on Tuesdays, which began on Tuesday, June 19th and will end on August 14th from 9-11:00 am at the parish offices of St. Joseph’s. We will do lectio divina, an ancient Catholic prayer practice. Lectio divina looks at the context of the passages while inviting us to apply them to our lives today, thus adding richness to the Mass each week. It is easy to learn. You will need a Bible and notebook. This bible study will be a “come when you can.” Come join us for coffee and lectio! Please call Kathy J a n k u a t 2 5 2 - 9 6 0 3 o r e m a i l a t [email protected] if interested in coming.

Eternal rest, grant unto Edwina Ross & Sylvester Kantor, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in

peace. Our condolences to the families. We would like to thank the St. Michael’s Mission group for the wonderful donation of $500 go-ing towards the funeral fund and the statue painting fund of the Blessed Virgin Mary. We really appreciate your help in those areas.

WHAT’S HAPPENING

JUNE 24, 2018 4

PALABRAS DEL MINISTRO HISPANO Se llama Juan; Así, se escuchó la voz del anciano

Zacarias, cuando fue presentado en el templo su hijo Juan que tuvo con Isabel la prima de la Virgen María. En un mo-mento de duda ante Dios, Zacarias queda mudo y recobra la voz para dar testimonio de lo que Dios había hecho en ellos. Dios es todo poderoso y para Dios no hay nada impo-sible. La encarnación del Hijo de Dios en el seno de la Vir-gen y la maternidad de una anciana estéril, son las señales de la acción de Dios. Ningún hombre por muy creativo e imaginativo que fuera, podría realizar esto. Muchas veces dudamos de Dios y su poder, porque queremos que haga las cosas que mejor nos parece y que los milagros que le pedimos los haga en el momento que deseamos. La mejor manera de mostrar la fe en Dios es precisamente esperar en su misericordia. Poner en las manos de Dios lo que para nosotros es imposible. El precursor, el que preparó el camino a Jesús y lo señaló entre nosotros, recibió su misión desde antes de nacer; cada uno de nosotros tiene una misión que cumplir, ojo no estamos predestinados, eso solo es para la Virgen María. Somos libres de aceptar la llamada que Dios nos hace. La vocación es también una respuesta generosa a la voluntad de Dios. Nuestra vocación final es la de ser san-tos, de vivir en el cielo, disfrutar de la vida eterna, pero eso se logra, si aceptamos a Dios como nuestros único Señor.

PBRO. OSWALDO RAMON ROCHE GERDEL.

1.- La fe no tiene vacaciones, en este tiempo, tomemos un momento para Dios.

2.- Para los que necesiten algún sacramento, por favor comunicarse con el señor Diacono David Hernández.

3.- Estén pendiente del horario de las misas en el boletín. 4.- Para las siguientes semanas se harán algunos cambios

en las parroquias, sobre todo la reubicación de los sacerdotes. El padre Oswaldo Roche, se muda para Melrose y vendrá a presidir las misas de los domingos.
