Solemn Mass for All Saints’ Day
In just over a week the Church celebrates the Solemnity of All Saints, or All Saints’ Day. Since it falls on
a Monday this is not a holy day of obligation this year. However, Mass will be offered in each parish to
celebrate this important feast day of the Church. See the bulletin for times and locations.
One of the Masses that will be offered for All Saints’ Day is a Solemn Mass at St. Pius X in Glencoe at
6:30 p.m. This will be a truly beautiful Mass for the glory of God, the honor of the saints, and for the
edification and sanctification of those who participate. It will be celebrated in the form of the Mass
promulgated after Vatican II with which we are all familiar. However, the Mass will be celebrated in
Latin (see the August 29 and September 5 bulletins on this topic) with the Liturgy of the Word (i.e.
readings, responses, and homily) in English. We will also sing hymns in English along with the propers
in Latin. We will be blessed to have seminarians from the seminaries in St. Paul to lead the music along
with our own Fr. John Hayes. A program for the Mass will include the Latin responses and translations
of Latin texts into English.
Another unique feature of this Mass is that we will celebrate it at the high altar. Many do not realize that
this is still an option in the current form of the Mass. This is often described as Mass celebrated by the
priest “with his back to the people.” However, this does not describe the true meaning of this orientation.
A better way to refer to it is Mass celebrated ad orientem, or toward the east. In the first centuries of the
Church, Christians often prayed in the direction of the east toward the rising sun. This represents the Son
who will come again in glory at the end of time. Since it is not always possible to build churches oriented
to the east, the idea of “liturgical east” arose. This means that at certain points of the Mass, especially
during the Eucharistic Prayer, the priest faces towards a representation of Christ such as an image of
Christ in glory or a crucifix, and/or the Real Presence of Christ in the tabernacle. The idea is not that the
priest does not want to look at the people. Rather it is that at those points of the Mass when the priest is
addressing God, he faces God. Moreover, the priest is facing in the same direction as the people so as to
represent that he is not praying to or at the people, but is leading them in prayer in the person of Christ by
the power of the Holy Spirit to God the Father. Together priest and people turn toward the Lord and offer
Him prayer, praise, worship, and adoration.
We purposely chose to offer this form of solemn Mass at a time that is not obligatory. The purpose is not
to cause a stir or make people fearful about what future Masses in the AFC will be like. The idea is
simply to offer this form of the Mass to give people a wider experience of the Church’s liturgy and to give
those are interested a chance to experience and participate in it. No one has to come. However, I
certainly encourage you to do so if you are able. You might appreciate it more than you think. My
experience has been that many do. It’s going to be very beautiful! Happy Sunday!
In Christ,
Fr. Aaron Johanneck

JOB OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE IN THE ST. JOHN
PAUL II AREA FAITH COMMUNITY: St. Pius X Parish Office
Assistant (part-time): We are looking for a Catholic, faith-filled
person with good “people skills” to answer calls, help parishioners,
and assist with basic administrative tasks in the St. Pius X parish
office. Competency or experience in data entry and word-processing
required. For full details of this position, a complete description of
this position is available upon request. For more information, please
contact Fr. Matthew Wiering at [email protected] or Shirley
Nowak at [email protected].
THE YOUTH OF C.O.R. will be hosting the first of three “COR
Nights” at St. Aloysius in Olivia on November 14. The evening
consists of games, music, a speaker, time for small group discussion,
food, and Cor Jesu. It should be a great night! November’s topic is
“Purgatory: God’s Loving Fire” presented by Fr. Garrett Ahlers
(November is the Month of All Souls, after all). This is a topic that
often piques the curiosity of Catholics and non-Catholics alike and it
is sure to inspire great questions and conversation. Whether you have
an existing youth group and you want to foster discipleship within it,
you’re looking for way to jump-start a new youth group, or you are
simply interested in such an event, this is a great opportunity for
either situation. It’ll be a jam-packed night full of activities for youth
at all stages of their faith journey. For more information see the flyers
or visit www.dnu.org/cor-night or contact Kevin Losleben
SEPTEMBER 22 – OCTOBER 31, 2021: 40 Days for Life,
St. Cloud, Peaceful, Prayerful, vigil. Mon-Fri 7:00 a.m.-7:00 p.m. on
the public sidewalk in front of planned parenthood, East St. Cloud.
We pray for an end to legalized abortion. Come join us. For
questions or to sign-up, contact [email protected] or “just come”
(do not be afraid to join us. Captains will be there to welcome you all
day during the campaign.
THE MONTH OF OCTOBER each year is dedicated to the Most
Holy Rosary. Each night at 7:00 p.m., Relevant Radio (Minneapolis,
MN - 1330AM WLOL, or download the Relevant Radio app.)
presents the 'Family Rosary Across America', a live and interactive
radio program to bring the entire country together at the same time to
pray the rosary. During the month of October, the special intention of
the rosary is for “the end to legal abortion in America and an
outpouring of support for expectant mothers.” With the Supreme
Court of the United States taking up the Dobbs case in December that
could lead to overturning Roe v. Wade, the Justices will need the
grace of wisdom and courage to confront the issues honestly. This is
a wonderful opportunity to join and support this effort by praying and
promoting the daily Rosary in October for this intention.
THIS WEEKEND WE CELEBRATE WORLD MISSION
SUNDAY. We celebrate this day by remembering our baptismal
call to bring the Gospel to all! The collection today for the Society
for the Propagation of the Faith supports the work and witness of the
Mission Church, as it provides for priests, religious and lay leaders
who offer the Lord’s mercy and concrete help to the most vulnerable
communities in the Pope’s missions. Thank you for your generosity.
Please make your checks payable to the Church of the Holy Family,
the Church of the Holy Trinity or the Church of St. Pius X. We will
consolidate all of our donations and forward them to the appropriate
organization. We are not able to cash checks made out to the
specific organization or collection. If you did not receive an
envelope and wish to make a donation, please put your donation in a
clearly marked envelope. Thank you!

“Let’s Build Together”
We want to reach out to you all to see if you know of anyone who be interested in our open 1st
Grade teacher position. Unfortunately, our current teacher, Carolyn Schmidt, was no longer able
to stay with us due to health concerns. If you can think of anyone, even someone willing to take
the class for a short while to buy us a little more time, that would be a huge help. Please keep this
very important intention in your prayers.
Our Marathon total as of Tuesday morning is $50,571.61! Money is still trickling in, so we will
have a final total soon. We want to send out a huge “Thank you!” to all who generously
supported this annual fundraiser this year making it a wonderful success.
Thank you for your continued prayers and support! We will continue to pray for you, our
benefactors, every day.
God Bless,
Anthony Biese,
Principal
