"Safeguarding the Dignity of Every Human Person"
This year, the Church will celebrate Catechetical Sunday on September 20, 2015, and will
focus on the theme "Safeguarding the Dignity of Every Human Person." Those whom the
community has designated to serve as catechists will be called forth to be commissioned
for their ministry at the 10:00 AM Mass. Catechetical Sunday is a wonderful opportunity
to reflect on the role that each person plays, by virtue of Baptism, in handing on the faith
and being a witness to the Gospel. Catechetical Sunday is an opportunity for all to
rededicate themselves to this mission as a community of faith.

My brothers and sisters in the Lord!
Today’s Scripture passage is interesting as we take note of the attitude of the disciples. In a
nutshell, they just never cease to amaze us. As our Lord begins telling them about His coming passion
and death, it is obvious that they are not even listening. Instead they are immersed in a quarrel among
themselves, arguing who is the greatest among them. Somehow we would expect a better attitude
from His close followers. And when they are confronted by Jesus, they are anything but proud of their
discussion. They are clearly embarrassed and they remain silent. Jesus uses this occasion to put them
on the right path and point out to them what constitutes true greatness in God’s eyes. He tells them that true greatness comes from
being humble and not from power and influence over people. He goes on to tell them that everyone is important and greatness
comes from being available and loving all people even down to youngest children. Children are close to the heart of Jesus because
they are innocent, they wear no masks and are uncontaminated by the selfish ways of the world.
This is the very basic instruction on the kind of followers Jesus wants each one of us to be. We are challenged in our faith
to turn the worldly materialistic ways of life upside down and follow the more humble and loving way of life. In many ways as we
are like the apostles, wanting to be greater or better than others due to the competitive world in which we live. At times we can be
full of selfish ambition, always putting ourselves first and wanting the best of everything. It is easy for us to think of what we have
as completely ours, with no thanks to anyone else. We fail to remember that we are the stewards of the many precious gifts which
God entrusts to us and which He intends to be used in His service. Being available and meeting the needs of others means being
present in a hundred and one ways, people need to be listened to, understood and appreciated.
The teaching of Jesus is certainly no formula for worldly success as it involves constant drudgery and ingratitude. This was
the pattern of service Jesus set for us when He washed the feet of His disciples at the Last Supper. Each one of us is called to do the
Lord’s work in order that Jesus can give His love through us. Every life gives opportunities to serve others around us. Parents are at
their loving best and pleasing to God when they raise their children properly as is a home health aide who puts his/her heart and soul
into caring for an elderly person. Being a true disciple means being open to what God may ask of us at any given moment, even in
the smallest of things.
Peace,
Fr. Joe

Pilgrimage of Mercy:
Tour of the Major Relics of St. Maria Goretti
Under supervision of Curial officials, the body of St.
Maria Goretti has been prepared for shipment to the
USA. Throngs of teary eyed locals filled the Basilica
where St. Maria’s relics are housed to standing room
only. The decree was read aloud informing all of the
Pontifical mandate to release them for the Pilgrimage
of Mercy. The faithful were permitted to make a last act of veneration before “their
saint” was placed in a specially designed shipping container.
The relic will be in New Jersey on Monday, September 21, at the Cathedral Basilica of
the Sacred Heart, 89 Ridge St., Newark, 973-484-4600. Public veneration of St. Maria
begins: 9:00 AM. Solemn Mass celebrated in St. Maria’s honor: 7:00 PM by Archbishop
John Myers. Public veneration ends: 11:00 PM.

look in your closet today?
Thank you with all our heart.

50th Anniversary Wishes

parishioners, Frank & Mirella Balestracci
who are celebrating their 50th Anniversary
with a special blessing at the 12:00 Mass this
weekend. God’s blessings for this wonderful
couple and their family!
STEWARDSHIP OF TREASURE
“If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and
the servant of all.” (Mark 9:35)
Jesus teaches us that we are called to serve one another.
Sacrifice is not a word that many people like to hear. We think
it means that we must give up something that we want.
However, the literal meaning of sacrifice is “to make holy,”
from the words “sacer” = sacred and “facere” = to make. In
other words, we make our lives holy by sharing our gifts in the
service of God.

MARIA SS. ADDOLORATA
OFFERING BLANKET
Several years ago, we introduced the
“Maria SS. Addolorata Offering Blanket” to
the Italian Festival. It has proven to be a
beautiful acknowledgment of our Sorrowful
Mother. A donation on the Offering Blanket
brings hope to the ill, is in memory of the
deceased, or is offered for a very special
intention. On the 2nd Friday of each month, a special Italian Mass in
honor of The Devotees of Maria Santissima Addolorata is offered for
their intentions at 7:00 P.M.
During the festival, the blanket will be on display in our Italian
Café for the entire 4 days. The presentation of the blanket will take
place on Saturday evening, during the candlelight procession
following the 7:00 PM Mass.
If you wish to take part in the Offering Blanket, you may submit
your donation to Holy Family Church along with the intention you
wish for the blanket. Kindly make your check payable to Holy Family
Church, but mark the envelope MEMORIAL BLANKET. As
always, the blanket will be a magnificent tribute to Our Lady of
Sorrows. For more information, please call Gina Tamburri at 973-7514187.

From the desk of Sister Eileen…
As you know, on Tuesday, August 4, I had my
left hip replaced. Three days later I was moved
to a rehabilitation center for a while and then
returned to my own home on Sunday, August
16th. Since then, life has been full of therapy
sessions, nurse’s visits, etc. God has been very
good to me! Although therapy is a challenge, each day, slowly
but surely, progress is being made. Knowing me as you do, I
have to be reminded daily that this isn't a sprint but a full blow
marathon. So with His grace, I try to keep a smile on my face
and patience in my heart. When I get the “all clear,” dates will
be set for my group gatherings. Again, with His grace they will
resume sometime in October.
I wish to take this opportunity to extend my heartfelt thanks
for your prayerful support, your well wishes and your
encouraging cards and notes. You have no idea how greatly
they strengthen my outlook and my courage. My brother,
Father Joe Hubbert, CM, and my family also wish to express
their thanks for your unfailing support.
Please continue to keep me in your prayers, peace and all good
things,
"ON THE MOVE"
