The RCIA/Bible Study will not meet this week
(February 18th) because of winter vacation. It will meet
next on February 25th at the usual time under the guidance of Father Gabriel, who will speak about the Book
of Wisdom. The Bible Study will not meet on March
4th because of the Society of St Vincent de Paul’s
Mardi Gras party at St Patrick, to which everyone is
invited. Please do attend! In March, we cover the Song
of Songs (March 11th – Fr Daniel) and selections from
the Prophets preparation for Holy Week and Easter.
Thank you for your positive response to the Italian
Catechesis. Please feel free to express your preferences
through this weekend. I will make a final decision about
the date by next weekend.
The parish council will meet on Monday, February
24th. If you have any concerns you wish us to address,
please feel free to contact me by email or letter. The parish council advises the pastor on the spiritual needs of
the faithful of the parish and helps him to develop initiatives to respond to said needs. On the agenda already is
the financial health of the parish and new initiatives for
youth ministry.
Finally, the Canons will be away for a few days this
week. Father Matthew will be available for your spiritual needs while we are away having a little rest.
God bless you,
Father Elias
Il RCIA/studio della Bibbia non si riunirà questa
settimana (18 Febbraio) a causa della vacanza
invernale. Si riunirà il prossimo 25 Febbraio all'orario
normale sotto la guida di Padre Gabriel, che parlerà del
libro della Sapienza. Il RCIA/studio della Bibbia non si
riunirà il 4 Marzo a causa della festa “Mardi Gras”
della Società di San Vincenzo de Paoli a San Patrizio,
cui tutti sono invitati. Vi prego di partecipare! Nel mese
di Marzo copriamo il Cantico dei Cantici (11 Marzo –
P. Daniel) e le selezioni dei profeti, in preparazione per
la Settimana Santa e la Pasqua.
Vi ringrazio per la vostra risposta positiva alla
catechesi italiana. Non esitate ad esprimere le vostre
preferenze attraverso questa fine settimana. Deciderò
definitivamente la data la prossima fine settimana.
Il consiglio parrocchiale si incontrerà Lunedì, 24
Febbraio. Se avete dei dubbi che desiderate prendere in
considerazione, non esitate di contattarmi via email o
per lettera. Il consiglio parrocchiale consiglia il parroco
sulle esigenze spirituali dei fedeli della parrocchia e lo
aiuta a sviluppare iniziative per rispondere a tale
necessità. All'ordine del giorno già c’è il benessere
finanziario della parrocchia e le nuove iniziative per i
giovani.
Infine, i Canonici saranno via per un paio di giorni
questa settimana. Padre Matthew sarà disponibile per le
vostre esigenze spirituali mentre noi siamo via per
avere un po 'di riposo.
Dio Vi Benedica,
Padre Elias

during the month of February…..
Universal Intention: That the Church and society may
respect the wisdom and experience of older people.
For Evangelization Intention: That priests, religious,
and lay people may work together with generosity for
evangelization
Bulletin Reflection
Stewardship involves more than just the gift we
bring to the altar. Today’s readings say clearly that
it is fidelity to God’s law that makes our offering
acceptable.
The regular collection on 2 /9/ 2014 was $3,228.00 The
second collection for Sunday Missalette was $1,170.00.
May God bless you for your continued support and generosity.
Thank you,
Fr. Elias

The Spiritual Life Committee of Holy Name of
Jesus Parish presents a teaching and exposition of
Sacred Relics on Saturday March 1st at 1:00 pm.
Holy Name of Jesus Church
690 Woodbury Road
Woodbury, NY 11797
(516) 921-2334
Father Carlos Martins of the Companions of the
Cross will be here with his very special ministry to
teach about these holy objects. He will bring with
Him over 150 relics, some as old as 2000 years.
Among the treasures will be relics of St. Maria
Goretti, St. Therese of Lisieux (the “Little Flower"),
St. Francis of Assisi, St. Anthony of Padua, St.
Thomas Aquinas, and St. Faustina Kowalska. In
addition, there will also be present a portion of the
veil of Our Lady, as well as one of the largest
remaining pieces of the True Cross in the world.
Those in attendance will be able to examine and
venerate each relic. In the Church’s history many
miracles and healings have been worked in the
presence of relics, and many have been healed
through this ministry.
Please do not miss this opportunity. You are encouraged to bring your articles of devotion (such as
rosaries, holy cards, etc.) and pictures of ill friends/
family members, which you will be able to touch to
the reliquaries as a means of intercession.
See www.treasuresofthechurch.com for more information. If you have any questions, kindly contact
Lisa Reali at 516-364-7119.
