Stewardship Note: “Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and
gave it to them and they all drank from it.” Jesus, the perfect
steward, gave thanks, just before He gave Himself to us completely for our salvation. He offered us the chance to drink
from His cup. In Eucharist we meet Christ personally and, if
we listen to Him, we will know what drinking from His cup
means for each of us. Often it means our own sacrifice—giving
up some of our time, talent and treasure to do His work on
earth.
THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST
June 10, 2012
The cup of salvation I will take up, and I will call upon the
name of the Lord.
-Psalm 116:13
SACRIFICE
Today the Church focuses on the Eucharist. Today’s readings remind us how connected to ancient blood sacrifices we are
when offering our unbloody sacrifice. The
reading from Exodus describes a solemn
ritual designed so the Israelites would never forget their covenant with God.
The reading from the Letter to the Hebrews turns us from
those ancient animal sacrifices, the first efforts to worship the
living God. Our sacrifice is the body and blood of the Son of
God. Because of Christ we have a new covenant.
The Gospel from Mark retells the establishment of that covenant, the familiar story of the Last Supper. Juxtaposed with the
story of animal sacrifice as it is here, we are challenged to listen with new attention, to remember the great price paid for our
salvation. Jesus gave his body and his blood for us.
This weeks second collection is for utilities and energy.
The second collection next week is designated for Diocesan
Obligations.
HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST
On Sunday, June 10, we will celebrate the Feast of the Holy
Body and Blood of Christ, also referred to as Corpus Christi.
This year the liturgy will begin at our Basilica at the 11:00am
Mass with Rev. Adam Reid as our celebrant and homilist followed by procession to four altars concluding at the Emmaus
Center. We ask you to please plan your day so as to take part in
this solemn procession. We ask all the parish organizations to
come with their banners and emblems. The banners should be
displayed during the Mass in the sanctuary. All Eucharistic
Ministers, First Communion children and altar servers in their
outfits should join us. After the procession, ice cream will be
served for the children at the Emmaus Center.
CANDLELIGHT PROCESSI0N
This Wednesday, June 13, at 7:00pm we will pray the rosary
during an outdoor procession in honor of Our Lady of Fatima.
As always, we invite parishioners, friends organizations and
especially the Children of Mary to take part in this beautiful
tribute to Our Lady.
The flowers in front of the Blessed Mother altar in honor of
Our Lady of Fatima are given in memory of Frank Kasierski.
by his wife Dottie.

PARTNERS IN CHARITY UPDATE
We are happy to announce that we have reached our
goal for Partners in Charity. Thank you to everyone who
contributed and supported this appeal which helps so
many in our diocese.
-Carolyn Swierzbin and Betty Sabaj
PARISH CENTER
Today, Saturday, June 9 after 4:00pm Mass at St. Joseph
School cafeteria you will have the opportunity to review
the architectural plans for the Parish Center. This project
was the focus of many discussions and complaints over
half a century and finally we are on the threshold of its
success. We want to consult our parishioners on various
details, such as size and layout of the cooking and serving
areas. We also will discuss an endowment fund for the
Gym and Parish Center. In this Jubilee Year, as we redefine our future it would be a far-sighted decision to address this issue which will positively contribute to our
cultural, spiritual and social activities in a comfortable
facility for our parish community. It would help the elderly of the parish if we could at this time attach the parish
center to the gym which will soon become a reality.
125TH JUBILEE WORK UPDATE
The landing area in front of the Basilica between the
two sets of stairs has been completed. People are welcome to use these steps, but please be cautious, as the railings have not as yet been installed. The material for the
walls and pillars will be placed on the edge of the patio
and along the stairs and will arrive this week as we continue the next phase of this project. A simple rail will be
attached to the walls along the stairs, which will be useful
and practical without the cost of constructing an elaborate
railing. The color of stones will complement the surroundings of the environment.
We are extremely grateful for your support and contributions to this Jubilee project which is a sign of your
dedication, faith and pride in your parish property.

JUBILEE PILGRIMAGE TO CZESTOCHOWA SHRINE
It has been customary that various parishes celebrating their Jubilee Year make pilgrimages either overseas or inside
our country. Due to our economic constraints, and on the advice of our Parish Council we will make a pilgrimage to
Our Lady of Czestochowa Shrine in Doylestown, PA. on Sat., Aug., 25 & Sun., Aug., 26th. A pilgrimage is a journey
to a sacred place for a religious purpose. This could be in the spirit of gratitude to God for received graces or in the
spirit of petition for needed blessings. Throughout the history of the Church the pilgrimage was considered as a form of
prayer because it is associated with sacrifice and inconvenience of traveling to a shrine where the power of God manifests itself in a special way, e.g., healings, miracles,etc. The people are drawn to places where a particular icon of the
Blessed Mother attracts the faithful because of the frequency of receiving graces, such as Lourdes, Fatima and Czestochowa.
Our pilgrimage to Doylestown will be for two days and will incorporate one day of sightseeing in Amish country.
On Sunday we will participate in devotional services at the Shrine in Doylestown and pray for our personal intentions
and for our St. Joseph Basilica family. The cost is $230, which includes transportation, accommodations, dinner and
lunch. Please contact the rectory as soon as possible to reserve your place and make a deposit of $50. Msgr. Czarnecki
or Father Gregory will accompany the tour.

KRONIKA PARAFIALNA
UROCZYSTOŚĆ BOŻEGO CIAŁA
10 czerwca 2012
“Podniosę kielich zbawienia i wezwę imienia Pańskiego. “(Ps 116, 13)
Bóg daje się spożywać! Nie ma
już ludzkiego głodu ani pragnienia, którego nie byłby w stanie
zaspokoić. W odpowiedzi na
nasze niezliczone potrzeby materialne, psychiczne i duchowe,
Bóg przez swego Syna mówi do nas: bierzcie i jedzcie! Spożywajcie moją miłość, nasyćcie się moim
życiem. W każdej Eucharystii – sakramencie miłości
– karmi nas Ciałem i Krwią Chrystusa, abyśmy nie
musieli szukać pokarmu życia w jego namiastkach,
lecz nasycili się Nim samym.
NABOŻEŃSTWO FATIMSKIE
W środę 13 czerwca o godz. 19:00 zapraszamy na
comiesięczne Nabożeństwo Fatimskie połączone z
Wystawieniem Najświętszego Sakramentu, Różańcem i Procesją.
UROCZYSTOŚĆ BOŻEGO CIAŁA
Dzisiejszej niedzieli przeżywamy Uroczystość

się sprostać temu zadaniu. Dziękujemy wszystkim,
którzy
wsparli
potrzebujących.

CENTRUM PARAFIALNE
W sobotę 9 czerwca, po Mszy o godz. 16:00, odbyło
się spotkanie w sprawie centrum parafialnego, w
czasie którego zostały zaprezentowane plany budowy. Po wielu latach dyskusji i propozycji, jesteśmy
na progu realizacji tego celu. Chcieliśmy skonsultować z parafianami wiele szczegółów dotyczących
nowego projektu, takich jak rozmieszczenie poszczególnych pomieszczeń. Zależy nam na stworzeniu
komfortowego i odpowiedniego miejsca na różnorodna aktywność społeczną i kulturalną w naszej
parafii.
PRACE JUBILEUSZOWE
Zakończone zostały prace przy schodach do naszej
świątyni. Teraz można juz z nich korzystać. Prosimy
jednak o ostrożność, gdyż jeszcze nie zostały zamontowane barierki. Następnym etapem prac przed bazyliką będzie aranżacja przestrzeni przed wejściem.
Powstanie niewysoki murek i słupki na pograniczy
wyłożonego kostką obszaru. Zostaną również zamontowane barierki na schodach i przy ścianach.
Jesteśmy niezmiernie wdzięczni wszystkim za pomoc i wsparcie jubileuszowych projektów.
PIELGRZYMKA JUBILEUSZOWA
Częścią obchodów jubileuszu naszej parafii będzie
pielgrzymka do sanktuarium Matki Bożej Częstochowskiej w Doylestown, która odbędzie się 25 i 26
sierpnia tego roku. Pielgrzymka to przede wszystkim
podróż do miejsca kultu w celach religijnych. Dla
nas to będzie okazja do okazania wdzięczności Bogu, za wszelkie łaski, które spłynęły na naszą parafię,
przez te wszystkie lata. Poprzez wieki pielgrzymki
były zawsze szczególną formą modlitwy ponieważ
są połączone z ofiarą i trudami dotarcia do sanktuarium, gdzie łaska Boża spywa na wiernych w sposób szczególny np. poprzez objawiania Matki Bożej
lub różnorodne cuda.
Nasza pielgrzymka będzie jednocześnie połączona
ze zwiedzaniem wspólnoty Amiszów. W niedzielę
będziemy uczestniczyli w nabożeństwach w sanktuarium zanosząc do Boga modlitwy w naszych osobistych intencjach i w intencjach naszej wspólnoty parafialnej.
Koszt pielgrzymki 230 dolarów zawiera opłatę za
przejazd, zakwaterowanie, obiad i kolację. W celu
zapisania się na pielgrzymkę prosimy o kontakt z
biurem parafialnym.

W tym tygodniu serdeczne podziękowania za
złożone ofiary kierujemy do następujących osób:
Rodzina i krewni ku pamięci Romama Rucińskiego
- 140 dolarów;
