And we canons are delighted that, for the first time, we will be partaking in the great Feast of St. Rocco in Glen Cove. There are a number of sacred liturgies to observe this grand occasion: 1. Feast Workers’ Mass – On Monday, July 25th at 7 p.m. a simple Mass will be offered in thanksgiving for all the sacrifices and offerings that have been made that make our feast possible. In a special way, we will ask for God’s blessing upon all the volunteers and patrons of this year’s feast. As you know, the feast plays an essential role in sustaining our parish. The countless hours of service translate into many concrete benefits for our community. Therefore, I invite the whole parish to come to this Mass to thank the Lord for all the hard work, which the organizers and workers have already done, and will continue to do to make the feast a great success. 2. The inaugural Mass – It is a great pleasure to welcome the new pastor of St. Patrick, and my superior, the Prior of the Canonry of St. Leopold, Father Daniel Nash, to preside at this bilingual liturgy. Fr. Daniel has placed posters to advertise the feast of St. Rocco at St. Patrick, for the first time as far as anyone can remember. 3. Vespers with the Bishop – On Wednesday at 6:30 p.m., His Excellency, the Most Reverend William Murphy, will preside at solemn Vespers (Evening Prayer) and will impart the Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. This will be Bishop Murphy’s first visit to the Feast of St. Rocco. 4. Vespers – Some may be wondering, what is Vespers? It is one of the pivotal hours of the Divine Office or Liturgy of the Hours by which the Church sanctifies time. Each day is divided into moments of prayer: morning, day, evening and night. To these is also added an office of readings, which can happen at different times of day. The Liturgy of Hours aims at fulfilling Our Lord’s command to pray without ceasing (Luke 1:18) and St. Paul’s exhortation to “pray always” (1 Thes 5:17). This art of common prayer is one of pillars of the way of life of the Canons. So, by offering Evening Prayer during the feast, we Canons hope to introduce to you another important part of our life as priests. "The Best Feast in the East" è arrivata! E noi canonici siamo molti contenti che, per la prima volta, participeremo alla grande festa di San Rocco a Glen Cove. Ci sono diverse liturgie sacre per osservare durante questa grande occasione: 1. La Santa Messa per gli Operai della Festa: - Alle 19:00 il 25 Luglio, una semplice Messa sarà offerta in ringraziamento per tutti i sacrifici e le offerte che sono state fatte per rendere possibile la nostra festa. In modo particolare, chiederemo la benedizione di Dio su tutti i volontari e tutti i benefattori della festa di quest'anno. Come sapete, la festa è essenziale nel sostegno della nostra parrocchia. Le innumerevoli ore di servizio si traducono in molti benefici concreti per la nostra comunità. Invito la parrocchia intera, quindi, di venire a questa Messa per ringraziare il Signore per tutto il duro lavoro, che gli organizzatori ed i lavoratori hanno già fatto, e continueranno a fare per rendere la festa un grande successo. 2. La Messa inaugurale - E 'un grande piacere di dare il benvenuto al nuovo parroco di San Patrizio, il mio superiore, Priore della Canonica di San Leopoldo, Padre Daniel Nash, a presiedere questa liturgia bilingue. Padre Daniel ha messo manifesti per pubblicizzare la festa di San Rocco a San Patrizio, per la prima volta per quanto si possa ricordare. 3. I Vespri con il Vescovo - Mercoledì alle 18:30, Sua Eccellenza, Reverendissimo Mons. William Murphy, presiederà i Vespri solenni e impartirà la Benedizione del Santissimo Sacramento. Questa sarà la prima visita di Sua Eccellenza alla Festa di San Rocco. 4. Vespri - Qualcuno potrebbe chiedersi che cosa significa i Vespri? Si tratta di una delle ore importantissime dell'Ufficio Divino o Liturgia delle Ore dalle quali la Chiesa santifica il tempo. Ogni giorno è diviso in momenti di preghiera: mattina, giorno, sera e notte. A questi si aggiunge anche un ufficio delle letture, che può avvenire in diversi momenti della giornata. La Liturgia delle Ore mira a soddisfare il comando del Signore di pregare incessantemente (Luca 1:18) e l’esortazione di St. Paul, "pregate sempre" (1 Ts 5,17). Quest’ arte della preghiera comune è uno dei pilastri della forma di vita dei Canonici. Quindi, offrendo i Vespri durante la festa, noi Canonici speriamo di introdurre a voi un'altra parte importante della nostra vita di sacerdoti. God bless you, Father Elias Carr, Can.Reg. Dio vi Benedica! Padre Elias CHURCH OF ST. ROCCO, GLEN COVE, NEW YORK Saturday: 3:00pm — 3:45pm Let us pray for the intentions of our Holy Father during the month of July….
