Remember in Prayer
Our Stewardship
of Treasure
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.

BÓG ZAPŁAĆ!
PLEASE REMEMBER ST. FERDINAND PARISH
IN YOUR WILL.
“For his sake I have accepted the loss of all things and I
consider them so much rubbish, that I may gain
Christ…” (PHILIPPIANS 3:8)
The first commandment says that we shall not put other gods
before the Lord. Detaching ourselves from material
possessions and considering them ”rubbish” does just that. It
strengthens our rela onship with Jesus and allows us to live
more freely and joyfully.
Thank you!
Sincere THANK YOU to all who give their me
to keep our church clean. Thank you for your
faithfulness and dependability. Please know
that your help is very much valued and
appreciated.
We invite anyone able to help with the church cleaning.

PLENARY INDULGENCES APLENTY
Like all previous Jubilees, the Jubilee Year of Mercy features a very special plenary indulgence (the complete remission of all
temporal punishment due to sin). I wish that the Jubilee Indulgence may reach each one as a genuine experience of God's
mercy, which comes to meet each person in the Face of the Father who welcomes and forgives, forge ng completely the sin
commi ed. – Pope Francis, Le er to Archbishop Rino Fisichella, Sept. 1, 2015.
This me around, Pope Francis is seeking to make the indulgence as widely available as possible. In the extraordinary Jubilee
Year of Mercy, a Holy Door is to be opened in every cathedral around the world, as well as in par cular shrines and churches.
Even though we can only obtain one plenary indulgence a day, if you perform the required ac ons for other plenary
indulgences on the same day, you can s ll obtain mul ple par al indulgences.
To receive the Jubilee Year indulgence, you must fulfill the usual condi ons, (specified below) and perform the indulgenced
act: passing through a designated (ST. FERDINAND) Holy Door during the extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy (between Dec. 8,
2015 and Nov. 20, 2016)or performing one of the corporal or spiritual works of mercy.
As for the sick and the elderly, the Holy Father says, "For them it will be of great help to live their sickness and suffering as an
experience of closeness to the Lord who in the mystery of his Passion, death and Resurrec on indicates the royal road which
gives meaning to pain and loneliness. Living with faith and joyful hope this moment of trial, receiving communion or a ending
Holy Mass and community prayer, even through the various means of communica on, will be for them the means of obtaining
the Jubilee Indulgence."
For the imprisoned, the Holy Father says, "They may obtain the Indulgence in the chapels of the prisons. May the gesture of
direc ng their thought and prayer to the Father each me they cross the threshold of their cell signify for them their passage
through the Holy Door, because the mercy of God is able to transform hearts, and is also able to transform bars into an
experience of freedom."
You may receive the plenary indulgence yourself, or offer it for a person in purgatory.
To receive a plenary indulgence:
To refresh everyone's memories, here are the normal condi ons for receiving a plenary indulgence:
 It is necessary that the faithful be in the state of grace at least at the me the indulgenced work is completed.
 A plenary indulgence can be gained only once a day. In order to obtain it, the faithful must, in addi on to being in the state
of grace:
 have the interior disposi on of complete detachment from sin, even venial sin;
 have sacramentally confessed their sins;
 receive the Holy Eucharist (it is certainly be er to receive it while par cipa ng in Holy Mass, but for the indulgence only
Holy Communion is required); and
 pray for the inten ons of the Supreme Pon ff.
It is appropriate, but not necessary, that the sacramental Confession and especially Holy Communion and the prayer for the
Pope's inten ons take place on the same day that the indulgenced work is performed; but it is sufficient that these sacred rites
and prayers be carried out within several days (about 20) before or a er the indulgenced act. Prayer for the Pope's inten ons is
le to the choice of the faithful, but an Our Father and a Hail Mary are suggested. One sacramental Confession suffices for
several plenary indulgences, but a separate Holy Communion and a separate prayer for the Holy Father's inten ons are
required for each plenary indulgence.
 For the sake of those legi mately impeded, confessors can commute both the work prescribed and the condi ons required
(except, obviously, detachment from even venial sin). Indulgences can always be applied either to oneself or to the souls of the
deceased, but they cannot be applied to other persons living on earth.

Boże miłosierdzie w czasie sakramentu spowiedzi.

PROŚBA O WSPARCIE
Nazywam się Piotr Kołodziejczyk i i jestem właścicielem
Telewizji Radom ( www.tvradom.pl ) Nasza telewizja
Patriotycznie nastawiona na kształcenie młodzieży realizuje
film pt. Twin Ci es. Jest to opowieść o dwóch miastach o
Radomiu w Polsce i Radomiu w IL. Tak naprawdę jest to
opowiesć o Polonii w i jej losach w USA i Polakach w kraju .
Film ten jest produkowany przez młodzież z liceum im. Jana
Kochanowskiego. Jako nagrodę za ich naprawdę ciężką pracę
nagrody w postaci wyjazdu z nami do USA na promocję filmu.
Niestety koszty organizacyjne przerastają możliwości naszej
skromnej stacji. Zwłaszcza, że w Radomiu w Polsce rządzą siły
przeciwne misji patriotycznej naszej stacji. W związku z tym
zwracamy się z prośbą o pomoc finansową. My będziemy
wdzięczni za każdy grosz. W naszym dziele wspiera nas
posłanka Małgorzata Wypych. Cały nasz zespół liczy 8 osób.
Jest to młodzież bardzo zdolna ale uboga, nie patologiczna lecz
uboga. Chcielibyśmy w ramach wdzięczności zarejestrować
film o Polakach w Chicago. Chcemy w USA zrobić 8 projekcji
filmu 7 w Chicago i jedną w Radomiu IL.Czas nas goni gdyż już
teraz trzeba kupować wizy i bilety. Z góry dziękujemy za
okazane serce Piotr Kopłodziejczyk - właściciel Telewizji radom

ON PRAYER COTTAGES, PRIDE, AND CASTING STONES Copyright 2015 by John B. Reynolds ([email protected])
So I received an unusual text message last Friday night from my
friend Abhishek. Abhi and I work together and we’re always
dealing with quality assurance issues, so it was nice to get a nonwork-related communica on for a change. According to his text,
he was having a “Lenten Co age prayer mee ng” at his place
Saturday night followed by supper, and he invited me to join him.
Now, I had just been to a church mee ng at my home parish on
Thursday night. I was in the middle of a church mee ng on Friday
night when Abhi’s text came in. I had a four-hour church mee ng
lined up for Saturday morning, and of course, Mass on Sunday.
And my own parish’s Lenten mission was in play for Monday,
Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings. Hence, I didn’t really feel the
need to add another prayer service--and nearly an hour away at
that--into the mix, but here’s the thing: I’ll drive a long way for a
good meal.
I say this because--while it was possible Abhi and his wife
Oindrila would put out pizza or nachos--I figured they’d put out an
Indian spread instead, and they nailed it. The evening began with
chicken 65 (a spicy chicken dish) as an appe zer and closed with
several dishes I can’t pronounce but each one was delish! And in
the middle of the feast, a prayer service broke out for the maybe
thirty people a ending, all members of an Episcopalian church
serving the local Indian community in Abhi’s part of the world. The
pastor led us in prayer and song to start (I had a song sheet and
did the best I could, but with the words and the singing all in
Hindi, I mostly mumbled…). A young man then gave a nice
reflec on on the topic of pride, direc ng us to Scripture passages
for God’s word on the subject. One of the passages from Ezekiel
described Lucifer’s fall from grace. As the seven deadly sins go,
pride is the worst of the worst. Or the best of the worst,
depending on how you look at it.
But pride and humility are tricky things. I don’t think it’s wrong
to be proud of (and thankful for) our God-given gi s. As the
Apostle Paul--also referenced in the young man’s review--put it:
“Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.” Besides, as soon as I
say, “I’m humble,” I’m not. The young man’s words gave me
pause, though, and they con nue to now as I consider today’s
Gospel passage, the story of the adulteress brought to Jesus by
the religious elite to hear his take, given that her stoning was
jus fied by the law. “Let the one among you who is without sin be
the first to throw a stone at her,” he says, and one by one, they
fall away. Surely, self-righteous pride fed the angry crowd as they
gathered their weapons, but Jesus, who knows the human heart,
touches everyone so eager to carry out the woman’s death
penalty. In a sense, their own humility causes them to put down
their stones. Scripture tells that if we humble ourselves before the
Lord, he will li us up. No one knows what kind of long-term
conversion occurred that day, but ul mately, angry hearts
so ened, humility triumphed, self-righteousness gave way.
Something to give all of us pause as we con nue our own journeys
of conversion to Calvary and beyond.
