Saint Cyril of Alexandria, Bishop and Doctor of the Church
Today's Gospel reading begins a long section
unique to Luke's Gospel. Jesus’ ministry begins in
Galilee and then is one long journey to Jerusalem. In
Jerusalem He will meet His death but also enter into His
glory. Only in Luke does Jesus then spend 40 days in
Jerusalem instructing His disciples. It is in Jerusalem that
His disciples wait after His Ascension to be sent the
Holy Spirit on Pentecost. And it is from Jerusalem, in
Luke's second volume, the Acts of the Apostles, that the
Good News is spread to Rome and the ends of the earth.
Jesus' unconditional commitment to God's saving
work will demand of Him His life. He knows this, but
the disciples do not understand. Jesus does not want
anyone to rush into discipleship, because the demands of
discipleship require everyone considering it to be aware
of the cost, make Jesus and His mission central to His
life, and then go forward without looking back.
Following Jesus is not easy, to be sure. Jesus asks
us to take up His cross as we follow Him, when Jesus
calls us to follow Him. Being a disciple means not to
look back, but to move on forward, following Jesus’ Will
and the Will of His Father. It requires a trust that in what
lies ahead is far greater than what has been left behind.
Jesus will not give you anything to do that you can
not handle. He will give us everything we need to get the
job done. The only thing we need to have is faith in Him.

St. Stanislaus Kostka Church – Rochester, New York
Feast of Saints Peter and Paul, Apostles
On June 29 the Church celebrates the
feast day of Sts. Peter & Paul. Together, the
two saints are the founders of the See of
Rome, through their preaching, ministry and
martyrdom there.
Peter, who was named Simon, was a
fisherman of Galilee and was introduced to the Lord Jesus by his
brother Andrew, also a fisherman. Jesus gave him the name
Cephas (Petrus in Latin), which means ‘Rock,’ because he was to
become the rock upon which Christ would build His Church.
Peter was a bold follower of the Lord. He was the first to
recognize that Jesus was “the Messiah, the Son of the living
God,” and eagerly pledged his fidelity until death. In his boldness,
he also made many mistakes, however, such as losing faith when
walking on water with Christ and betraying the Lord on the night
of His passion. Yet despite his human weaknesses, Peter was
chosen to shepherd God's flock. St. Peter spent his last years in
Rome, leading the Church through persecution and eventually
being martyred in the year 64. He was crucified upside-down at
his own request, because he claimed he was not worthy to die as
His Lord. He was buried on Vatican hill, and St. Peter's Basilica
is built over his tomb.
St. Paul was the Apostle of the Gentiles. His letters are
included in the writings of the New Testament, and through them
we learn much about his life and the faith of the early Church.
Paul was imprisoned and taken to Rome, where he was beheaded
in the year 67. He is buried in Rome in the Basilica of St. Paul
Outside the Walls.

St. Stanislaus Kostka Church – Rochester, New York
XIII Niedziela Zwykła
W dzisiejszej Ewangelii według św. Łukasza bardzo ważny etap
formowania uczniów przez Jezusa odbywa się w drodze do Jerozolimy. Ten
czas wypełniają liczne spotkania z ludźmi i różnorodne wydarzenia. Każde
wydarzenie i spotkanie niesie ze sobą jakąś naukę. Podczas drogi do Jerozolimy
nie wszystko układa się pomyślnie i nie każde spotkanie owocuje przyjaźnią.
Jezus doświadcza także odrzucenia i niezrozumienia. Przyjmuje On trudności
jako coś normalnego, a nawet nieodzownego. W ten sposób pokazuje uczniom,
że muszą się nauczyć żyć w przestrzeni oddziaływania bardzo zróżnicowanych
bodźców. Okazywanie zniecierpliwienia lub posuwanie się do drastycznych
zachowań jest wyrazem niedojrzałości i stawia człowieka poza realnym
życiem. Jezus uczy także jeszcze innej istotnej postawy: mądrości w głoszeniu
Ewangelii. Napotkani przez Jezusa ludzie nie są przez Niego do niczego
zmuszani i nie są upokarzani. Spokojnie z nimi rozmawia, wyjaśnia, daje
propozycje, pozwala wybierać.
Trzeba uczyć się od Jezusa jasnego i konkretnego przedstawiania prawd
Ewangelii i czynienia tego z miłością. Nie wolno w imię Ewangelii narzucać
ludziom czegokolwiek, ale trzeba stworzyć im możliwości, żeby uczyli się
rozróżniać, co jest dobre, a co złe i żeby z głębokim przekonaniem wybierali
dobro – taki jest sens Królestwa Bożego tu, na ziemi.
Święci Apostołowie, Piotr i Paweł
Kościół umieszcza w jednym dniu, 29 czerwca, uroczystość św. Pawła
wraz ze św. Piotrem nie dlatego, aby równał go w prymacie z pierwszym
zastępcą Chrystusa. Chodzi jedynie o podkreślenie, że obaj Apostołowie byli
współzałożycielami gminy chrześcijańskiej w Rzymie, obaj w tym mieście
oddali dla Chrystusa życie swoje oraz że w Rzymie są ich relikwie i sanktuaria.
Parafialny Festiwal
Nasz doroczny – St. Stanislaus Polish Arts Festiwal będzie w Piątek, 5-go
Sierpnia i w Sobotę 6-go Sierpnia z smacznym Polskim jedzeniem i innymi
zakąskami, rozrywkami, muzyką do tańca i posłuchania, wspaniała okoliczność
do spotkania się z przyjaciółmi i znajomymi, spędzenie wspaniałego wieczoru w
gronie parafialnej rodziny, a przy okazji poparcia naszej parafii.
W tym roku mamy zmiany dotyczące „Festival Raffle”. Nagrody: 8X$500.
Cena: $5 za jeden . Biley nie będą wysyłane, ale można je kupić po Mszach św.,
w biurze parafialnym i także podczas „Coffee Hour” po Mszach św. w
audytorium. Pytania i więcej informacji można otrzymać dzwoniąc do Jan
Vorndran (729-7878).
Parafialny Piknik w tą Niedzielę !

godziny 12:00 do 4:00 po południu, w namiocie zwanym “Longhouse”.
