ELEVENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

Mk 4:26-34

Jesus said to the crowds:

“This is how it is with the kingdom of God;

it is as if a man were to scatter seed on the land

and would sleep and rise night and day

and through it all the seed would sprout and grow,

he knows not how.

Of its own accord the land yields fruit,

first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.

And when the grain is ripe, he wields the sickle at once,

for the harvest has come.”

He said,

“To what shall we compare the kingdom of God,

or what parable can we use for it?

It is like a mustard seed that, when it is sown in the ground,

is the smallest of all the seeds on the earth.

But once it is sown, it springs up and becomes the largest of plants

and puts forth large branches,

so that the birds of the sky can dwell in its shade.”

With many such parables

he spoke the word to them as they were able to understand it.

Without parables he did not speak to them,

but to his own disciples he explained everything in private.

MEGA RAFFLE

We have reached the point where we can see a glimmer of light at the end of the COVID pandemic tunnel; and we hope and pray that in the next few months ahead, we will see more normalcy return to our lives.

As churches begin to reopen to their full size capacity, as people return to their workplaces, we know that like our parish, many still suffer financially. Because of the decrease in revenues due to covid-related cancellations of fund-raising activities and a significant decrease in weekly and other offerings, the success of our Annual Mega Raffle is critical to help improve our bleak financial picture. Your parish is in need of your support of our Annual Mega Raffle to reach our sales goal of 2,000 tickets.

The price of a ticket is $25.00 and with total sales of 2,000 tickets, the 25 payouts will be $5,000, $3,750 and $2,500 for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prizes respectively, and a maximum payout of $625 to each of the remaining 22 winners. The parish could realize revenues of $25,000, but only with your help and support. The Mega Raffle drawing will take place at Christ the King School on October 10 at 3 PM. Last year, with your help, we were able to sell 1,540 tickets bringing in $19,250 for our Parish.

We once again turn to you for your continued generosity. Please consider setting aside a few extra dollars to support this fund-raising event. Tickets can be ordered by completing the MEGA RAFFLE FORM and returning it with your payment to the Parish Office before October 2, 2021. Tickets can also be purchased through the ONLINE GIVING.

St. Joseph Novena

St. Joseph is the husband of the Virgin Mary and legal father of Jesus. In a new Apostolic Letter titled “Patris corde” (“With a Father’s Heart”), Pope Francis has proclaimed a special “Year of St Joseph,” from the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception December 8, 2020 to the same feast in 2021. To celebrate the 150th anniversary of declaration of St Joseph as Patron of the Universal Church by Blessed Pope Pius IX.

Throughout the year we strive to honor St. Joseph as the guardian and protector of the Church and her faithful with heartfelt prayer and devotion, encouraging all to take his virtuous life as our model for fulfilling our personal vocation to holiness. As we prepare for the Solemnity of St. Joseph let us pray the novena that honors him asking to intercede for us, to obtain God’s blessing on us.

FROM THE PASTOR'S DESK

We ARE an Easter people and Alleluia is our song!

Happy Easter dear Friends!

St. John Paul II would tell us repeatedly: “We ARE an Easter people and Alleluia is our song!” May our church shake with joy this day, because it was given to us by the Father himself who raised his only Son from the grave. The preface of Easter Sunday Mass echoes what the Church experiences during the Easter season: “Therefore, overcome with paschal joy, every land, every people exults in your praise O Lord…”

We gather this Easter to share this joy together. We share in the Good News of the Resurrection, and we rejoice in something that we probably took for granted until last year: that we get to gather here in our church to celebrate Easter.

Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI in his last Easter homily as Pope said: “Easter is the feast of the new creation. Jesus is risen and dies no more. He has opened the door to a new life, one that no longer knows illness and death.” As we start to see light at the end of the great darkness of this pandemic, we realize that the light of Christ has been with us all along. This light calls us to cast off the despair of this past year. The light of the Risen Christ indeed calls us to live in the joy of the Resurrection, and to share that joy with the entire world!

May you and your families have a blessed Easter!

Fr. Stan

OBITUARY AND UPCOMING FUNERALS

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, And let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

In the face of death, the Church confidently proclaims that God has created each person for eternal life and that Jesus, by his death and resurrection, has destroyed death forever.

Christians celebrate the funeral rites to offer worship, praise and thanksgiving to God for the gift of life which has now been returned to God, the author of life. We pray for the person who has died - asking for the forgiveness of sin and the gift of everlasting life.

To make arrangements for a funeral liturgy, please contact the parish office at 908-725-0072
