Amen May God keep you safe! Daniel Guziec SPC Jeffrey Foerster May 6, 2007 Fifth Sunday of Easter Page Three Remember in Prayer As members of the parish faith community, it is our responsibility to remember both in concrete and spiritual ways those who cannot celebrate with us each week because they are ill. Those who are sick in turn, remember all of us daily in their prayers and in their sufferings. We experience many blessings because of their remembering us. And so...please remember in your prayers: Tom Anastos Thomas D.

Every two seconds someone in the United States needs blood—that’s about 38,000 red blood cell units needed daily. Almost 60 % of the American population is eligible to give blood, but only 5 % does. If all eligible donors gave blood at least twice each year, there would be no seasonal blood shortages. By donating one pint of blood, you can fulfill many needs with this simple yet life-saving act. Whole blood can be separated into three components—red cells, platelets and plasma— potentially saving the life of someone from a young cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy to an injured military soldier. It’s never too late to give one of the world’s most precious gifts. Our parish spring blood drive will be on SUNDAY, MAY 27TH in Canning Hall. If you can be a Blood Donor, please call the COR office at 773/622-9732. Thank You! Crowning of the Blessed Mother The Ladies of St. Anne will meet Wednesday at 11:30 a.m. in the Church for Crowning of the Blessed Mother. The Crowning will be performed by Rose Clemente, assisted by Rita Erdmann and Violet DelVecchio. Regular meeting will follow in Canning Hall, where we will be celebrating all birthdays, with games and other surprises.

However please do not forget about our God, especially when planning our weekend trips. Always allow time to get to Church on Sunday. Not long ago our Holy Father Benedict XVI addressed us and this concern in his Apostolic Exhortation Sacramentum Caritatis – Eucharist as the source and summit of the Church’s life and mission. I have included the script and would like you to pay careful attention to his words. “Conscious of this new vital principle which the Eucharist imparts to the Christian, the Synod Fathers reaffirmed the importance of the Sunday obligation for all the faithful, viewing it as a wellspring of authentic freedom enabling them to live each day in accordance with what they celebrated on ‘the Lord's Day.’ The life of faith is endangered when we lose the desire to share in the celebration of the Eucharist and its commemoration of the paschal victory. Participating in the Sunday liturgical assembly with all our brothers and sisters, with whom we form one body in Jesus Christ, is demanded by our Christian conscience and at the same time it forms that conscience. To lose a sense of Sunday as the Lord's Day, a day to be sanctified, is symptomatic of the loss of an authentic sense of Christian freedom, the freedom of the children of God. Here some observations made by my venerable predecessor John Paul II in his Apostolic Letter Dies Domini continue to have great value. Speaking of the various dimensions of the Christian celebration of Sunday, he said that it is Dies Domini with regard to the work of creation, Dies Christi as the day of the new creation and the Risen Lord's gift of the Holy Spirit, Dies Ecclesiae as the day on which the Christian community gathers for the celebration, and Dies hominis as the day of joy, rest and fraternal charity. Sunday thus appears as the primordial holy day, when all believers, wherever they are found, can become heralds and guardians of the true meaning of time. It gives rise to the Christian meaning of life and a new way of experiencing time, relationships, work, life and death. On the Lord's Day, then, it is fitting that Church groups should organize, around Sunday Mass, the activities of the Christian community: social gatherings, programs for the faith formation of children, young people and adults, pilgrimages, charitable works, and different moments of prayer. For the sake of these important values – while recognizing that Saturday evening, beginning with First Vespers, is already a part of Sunday and a time when the Sunday obligation can be fulfilled – we need to remember that it is Sunday itself that is meant to be kept holy, lest it end up as a day ‘empty of God’.” Please take the Holy Father’s words as a motivation to keep the religious character of each Sunday. I wish you a blessed week. Fr. Jason Torba In honor of saving our planet, St. Ferdinand Parish and School has started a paper recicling program. The recicling helps teach and promote environmental stewardship and awareness, and raises funds for our school and church.

As a source of hope and inspiration it is our intention to publish those names in print who have done outstanding work in the course of the week to “plant a rose” so to speak along the way as we carry the cross in the glory of the victory “He” won. Our part though small can and does grow. We might need to see the proof. The names are both a thank you and attempt to have lots of roses where ever “the cross” is.

Pamiętajmy jednak w tym czasie o Panu Bogu, szczególnie przy planowaniu weekendowych wyjazdów nie zapominajcie o uczestniczeniu we Mszy św. W ostatnim czasie Ojciec Święty Benedykt XVI wydał Adhortację Apostolską Sacramentum Caritatis – o Eucharystii, źródle życia i misji Kościoła. M.in. Papież przypomina w tym dokumencie o obowiązek świętowania niedzieli. Pisze on, że: „Ojcowie synodalni, świadomi nowej zasady życiowej, jaką Eucharystia daje chrześcijaninowi, potwierdzili znaczenie przykazania niedzielnego świętowania dla wszystkich wiernych, jako źródła autentycznej wolności, umożliwiającej przeżywanie każdego z pozostałych dni tygodnia według tego, co się celebrowało w ‘dzień Pański’. Życie wiarą jest bowiem zagrożone, jeśli się już nie odczuwa pragnienia uczestniczenia w celebracji eucharystycznej, w której sprawuje się pamiątkę paschalnego zwycięstwa. Uczestniczenie w niedzielnym zgromadzeniu liturgicznym wraz ze wszystkimi braćmi i siostrami, z którymi tworzy się jedno ciało w Chrystusie Jezusie, jest nakazem chrześcijańskiego sumienia i równocześnie ono formuje to chrześcijańskie sumienie. Zagubienie sensu niedzieli jako dnia Pańskiego, który ma być uświęcony, jest symptomem zagubienia autentycznego sensu chrześcijańskiej wolności, wolności dzieci Bożych. Uwagi mego czcigodnego poprzednika Jana Pawła II zawarte w liście apostolskim Dies Domini – odnośnie do różnych wymiarów niedzieli – wciąż pozostają cenne dla chrześcijan: jest ona Dies Domini w odniesieniu do dzieła stworzenia; Dies Christi jako dzień nowego stworzenia oraz daru Ducha Świętego, którego zmartwychwstały Pan udziela; Dies Ecclesiae jako dzień, w którym wspólnota chrześcijańska zbiera się na celebrację; Dies hominis jako dzień radości, odpoczynku oraz braterskiej miłości. Dlatego ten dzień jawi się jako podstawowy i pierwszy dzień świąteczny, w którym każdy wierny, w środowisku, w którym żyje, może stać się głosicielem i strażnikiem sensu czasu. Z tego dnia rzeczywiście wypływa sens chrześcijańskiej egzystencji oraz nowy sposób przeżywania czasu, więzi, pracy, życia oraz śmierci. Dobrze jest więc, kiedy w dzień Pański kościelne środowiska organizują wokół niedzielnej celebracji eucharystycznej inne inicjatywy właściwe dla chrześcijańskiej wspólnoty: spotkania przyjacielskie, inicjatywy na rzecz formacji wiary dzieci, młodzieży oraz dorosłych, pielgrzymki, dzieła charytatywne oraz różne formy modlitwy. Ze względu na tak ważne wartości — sobotni wieczór słusznie już od pierwszych nieszporów przynależy do niedzieli i jest dozwolone spełnienie wtedy obowiązku niedzielnego uczestniczenia — trzeba jednak koniecznie pamiętać, że niedziela sama w sobie zasługuje na uświęcenie, by nie kończyło się na tym, że jest ona dniem, w którym ‘Bóg jest nieobecny’.” Niech te słowa Ojca Świętego Benedykta XVI będą zachęta dla nas wszystkich do zachowania religijnego charakteru każdej niedzieli. Życzę wszystkim błogosławionego tygodnia. Ks. Zdzisław Torba Szkoła Katolicka im. Św. Ferdynanda oraz Parafia rozpoczynają zbiórke makulatury!

Błogosławieństwo matek oczekujących potomstwa Wszędzie tam, gdzie rozpoczyna się życie, spotykamy się z tajemnicą Bożą, gdyż wszystko co żyje, podlega ojcowskiej opiece Boga. Każdy człowiek, będąc nawet jeszcze w łonie swojej matki, już jest w Bogu. Pan Bóg jest bliski każdemu człowiekowi i to zawsze, choćby dopiero co stawał się człowiekiem. Wyrazem tego jest błogosławienie matki przed porodem, która z ufnością winna oczekiwać dnia rozwiązania. W Dzień Matki – w niedzielę 13 maja zapraszamy wszystkie matki oczekujące potomstwa na specjalne błogosławieństwo. Odbędzie się ono na każdej Mszy św.
