the Lord for all the blessings He has bestowed on us.

travelling for the holiday, Happy Thanksgiving to you
and your loved ones, and please return to us safely.
Many thanks to all who
worked so hard on the Holy
Name Foundation’s Dinner
Dance at Gargiulo’s
Restaurant on Friday,
November 13th, and
congratulations again to
honorees Msgr. Joseph Nagle, Teena Caccamo, and Nick
Sisto, Jr. It was a great social evening that provided
important support for St. Joseph the Worker Catholic
Academy and for Holy Name Parish.
Many thanks also to our Boy Scouts who
volunteered their time and labor on Saturday,
November 14th to paint the iron railings and
fence in front of the Rectory and in front of
the Church, as well as the railings on the ramp
on the Prospect Avenue side of the Church.
The cold and wind of the day made the job take longer than
expected, but the scouts persevered and the results look
great.
PRAYERS FOR PARIS ATTACKS
VICTIMS
Please keep the victims of last
week’s terrorists’ attacks in Paris
in your prayers as we conclude
November, our month of special
remembrance of the deceased.
A Note from Fr. Larry
As promised, below is the text of the
appeal I made at each of last weekend’s
Masses for increased weekly giving to
Holy Name of Jesus parish. A typed
translation of my appeal into Spanish was also
distributed at the 9 AM Sunday Spanish Mass.
Please feel free to approach me or any of the
members of the Parish Finance Committee with
questions you may have about this very important
matter. The Finance Committee members are: Martin
Cottingham, Michael Coyle, Ann Dolan, Thomas
Galligan, Jr., Philip Lehpamer, Nick Sisto, and Diana
Sullivan.
Please think and pray about what’s presented
below; and – if you can – please increase your weekly
giving to the suggested levels right away. Thank you
and God bless you for your generosity.
TEXT OF FR. LARRY’S APPEAL
Folks, today I’m going to be speaking with you
about money, asking you to give more money to Holy
Name of Jesus Parish each week. The need for increased
weekly giving is especially great now. However, before
we get further into that, I want to emphasize that, as
important as the topic is and despite the parish’s needs,
my desire to serve you – each of you – as a priest and
pastor to the very best of my ability has nothing to do
with what you give to the parish. With Deacon Felipe’s
departure and Fr. Mark’s leave, I’m currently stretched
a bit thin but I’m doing my best. If there is something
you need or want from me as a priest or pastor, please
do not hesitate to let me know. I also again want to
acknowledge and thank you for all of the support –
support that includes your money, your time, and your
talents – that so many of you have given to this parish
over the years.
Those important things having been said, we
proceed.
I have four main financial obligations as pastor.
The first – and the one most important for today - is to
make sure that the parish “runs in the black”: that we
take in enough current revenue to meet our current
operating expenses. My second obligation is to make
sure that the parish adequately supports the fourteen
special second collections that are taken up during the
year to help meet special diocesan and, via the Diocese,
special national and international Catholic Church
purposes like retired clergy and religious, Catholic Relief
Services and the Missions. These are very worthy causes
that depend heavily on those fourteen special second
collections.
My third obligation is to make sure that each
year the parish meets its goal for the Brooklyn Diocese’s
Annual Catholic Appeal. Holy Name parish has
historically done so and is doing so this year. Next year’s
Appeal will begin during Lent, and we’ll be hearing more
about that then. My fourth obligation is to make sure
that Holy Name of Jesus parish pays off the almost 1.4
million dollar loan still outstanding from our beautiful
but expensive Church Restoration project.
The Annual Catholic Appeal and the almost 1.4
million dollar Church restoration loan are topics we will
be talking more about at another time. Today, our focus
is on the first two items I mentioned: operating the
parish “In the black” and adequately supporting the
fourteen special second collections.
Concerning operating the parish “in the black”, I
can say that expenses have been reduced greatly in the
past several months, but we still finished the 2014-2015
diocesan fiscal year (which runs from September 1st to
August 31st) “in the red”. With the concurrence of the
Parish Trustees and Finance Committee and as I
reported in the bulletin, in August I had to withdraw
over $100,000 from parish savings (accumulated many
years ago) to pay outstanding bills. We closed the fiscal
year on August 31st with all bills paid, but with a large
deficit between income and expenditures.
Things look better on the expenditures side for
our current 2015-2016 Fiscal Year (thanks to all the
spending reductions that continue to take effect); but
we still anticipate a deficit, unless we can increase
current revenues. This Fiscal Year I’ve already had to
withdraw an additional $10,000 from savings to pay
bills, and more withdrawals will almost certainly be
necessary, unless we can increase revenues. Parish
savings are our only parish emergency financial
reserves, and our savings are declining all too rapidly.
So much for the problem. In a moment we’ll
talk about the solution. But before doing so, I need to
speak about the Brothers House and the Convent. The
parish took a large loan to help pay for the extensive
renovations necessary before the Brothers House could
be rented. The terms of that loan require that, until
March of 2019, all rents from the Brothers House
immediately go to pay off that loan. Concerning the
Convent, I can tell you that the Diocese is working very
hard to rent the Convent, but we cannot now predict
when it will be rented. Our income versus expenditures
problem must be addressed now. Brothers House
rentals and possible Convent rentals may play some role
many years down the road, but our increased income
needs must be addressed now.
Our very capable Parish Finance Committee
members, with some excellent guidance from Deacon
Mickey Cutter who has been assisting our parish with
our fiscal problems for the last several months, has
developed a plan that includes many steps to help solve
our income versus expenditures problem. The various
social events organized by our extremely hardworking
Parish Fundraising Committee play an important role in
that plan. Please continue to support them.
However, Fundraising events alone will not
“close the gap”. My assignment in the plan is to ask you
to increase your weekly giving at our Saturday evening
and Sunday morning Masses. That giving has two
components. The first component is what you give to
the Parish in the first collection and in those second
collections we have for the upkeep of our parish
buildings (what many people refer to as our Renovation
and Repair collections). The second component is what
you give in the 14 special collections throughout the
year for Diocesan or (via the Diocese) for national or
international Catholic causes.
During Fiscal Year 2014-2015 our regular
weekend (Saturday Vigil and Sunday Morning)
collections for the Parish averaged $5243 per week.
That $5243 figure includes offerings via weekly
envelopes, Faith Direct on-line giving, and cash put in
the collection baskets but not in envelopes. It includes
everything given in first collections and in “Renovation
and Repair” second collections. I’m asking you to
increase weekly giving to the parish so that the total
averages S6200 per week. I’m also asking that, in the 14
special second collections for Diocesan, national and
international causes, you give at least as much as you
gave last year. If you do that, you’ll be doing a lot to
help me meet my two obligations of running this parish
“in the black” and adequately supporting diocesan and
diocesan-mandated national and international causes.
To put all of this in more concrete terms, I’m
asking that each family or each individual adult
contributor that can afford to do so give a total of at
least $25 per week, with $20 per week given in the first
collection and $5 given in the second collection. That
$5 would be either for a Diocesan special second
collection or for a parish Renovation and Repair second
collections on those weeks when there is no Diocesan
second collection. If you cannot afford $25, give $20
($15 in the first collection, $5 in the second collection).
If you can’t afford $20, give $15 ($10 in the first
collection, $5 in the second collection). These are
suggested and requested giving levels. An important
point is that we’re asking each family or each individual
adult contributor is to give what you can; but to make a
decision in advance of Mass each week about what you
will give in each collection. Please do not let the amount
you give be determined by what loose bills you happen
to have in your pocket or purse at the time of the
collection.
I’ve gone on for a long time and I haven’t
mentioned God. Well, God knows that many
wonderfully generous people in our fine parish already
give at these levels or higher. God knows that there are
families and individuals in the parish who cannot give
more. But God also knows that there are families or
individuals that can give more. It would be great if
those who can afford to give more put God and the
“things of God” higher on their priorities and did give
more to Holy Name of Jesus parish. Scripture and life
experience tell us that us that those who give will be
blessed in many ways.
Holy Name of Jesus is a great parish with great
parishioners who have been very good to me. Right now
our parish needs all of our help to address a serious but
solvable financial problem. You will all know how we’re
doing because we will continue to put our collection
totals in the bulletin each week, clearly delineating
what was given to the parish (hopefully averaging
$6200 each week) and what was given to the Diocese in
special second collections. I will also be advising you of
each withdrawal I have to make from savings to pay
current bills. Hopefully I will not have to make many
withdrawals.
Please think and pray about what’s been said
here; and – if you can – please increase your weekly
giving to the suggested levels right away. We’re in this
together (I’m a parishioner and a donor as well as
pastor) and we have God on our side. With your and His
help, all should be fine. Thank you and God bless you
for your generosity.

THE SOLEMNITY OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST THE KING
November 22, 2015
This Sunday is the Feast of Christ the King.
As Americans, we might have a hard time
with this title since we started our nation
rejecting a monarchy and establishing a
republic, with a balance of powers. But, in
the Scriptures, the King is featured as the
one who is not only powerful, but also just,
strong, trustworthy and kind to all. His
power is used to enrich and protect His
people. All the readings today reflect this
relationship.
We continue this Sunday with the
apocalyptic writings. In the First Reading, Daniel has a
vision of a “Son of Man” who is presented to the
Ancient One and whose kingship shall not be destroyed.
The Hebrew Scriptures often refer to the “Son of Man”
as a supernatural figure. This title also appears 82 times
in the Gospels and seems to be the favorite selfdesignation of Jesus. First, it contrasts the weakness
and poverty of human beings to the might and power of
God. Secondly, it emphasizes Jesus’ identification with
our ordinary human nature.
The Responsorial Psalm continues this theme of a
trustworthy King who invites his people to be holy. In
the Second Reading from Hebrews, we see similar
imagery where Jesus “has made us into a kingdom”.
Jesus here is faithful, loving, liberating, welcoming and
forgiving, and is finally called the “Alpha and the
Omega”, the beginning and the end. The King here
cares for his people and invites us to do the same. We
are called to be life-giving, drawing strength from this
wonderful God who is with us always, from beginning to
end.
The Gospel from John presents the scene of Jesus being
questioned by Pilate who asks if Jesus is a King. Jesus
responds, “My kingdom does not belong to this
world…For this I was born and for this I came into the
world: to testify to the truth.” Earlier in the Gospel of
John, Jesus said, “If you remain in my word, you will
truly be my disciples, and you will know the truth, and
the truth will set you free.”(John 8:31-32) In this preelection year in the U.S., many politicians are the
masters of deception, creating lies about their rivals’
positions and then telling them over and over until
people are convinced there must be some truth to the
statements. Integrity often takes a back seat to winning.
It is easy to decry the lies of other people but far harder
to recognize the times that we are sometimes
imposters. By the grace of God, we can put aside a life
of deceit and have the courage to live as God wills in
integrity and truth.
The liturgical year of the Church concludes by
summarizing Jesus’ life on earth in one simple
statement: “Everyone who belongs to the truth listens
to my voice.” May we have the courage to listen to the
voice of Jesus and bring about His Kingdom here each
day.
FOOD PANTRY
