PRIESTHOOD SUNDAY October 25, 2015 SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2015: THIRTIETH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME Dear Friends in Christ, This Sunday, October 25th, at the Mass at 10:15 am we will recognize the children who are preparing for their first confession and first Holy Communion. At this Liturgy, the parents and children will line the main aisle of the church so as to participate in the presentation of the gifts. After the children’s homily, the parents and children will be invited to take their place along the main aisle, profess the faith, pray the intercessions and then hand over the gifts, down the main aisle, to the sanctuary. After the Ushers will take up the collection. Since this will be the first time we try this, I thank you for your patience in advance! Next Sunday, November 1st (and of course Saturday night) is the Solemnity of All Saints. We have invited the confirmandi – candidates for the sacrament of Confirmation – to present themselves to the parish at the 10:15 am Mass. Father Ambros will celebrate this Mass. On Monday, November 2nd, the Memorial of All Souls, we will celebrate a special Mass for the faithful departed at 7:30 pm. The Mass will be celebrated in the Ordinary Form with Gregorian Chant – Father Ambros and I will cantor – and hymns. We will pray for all the members of the parish who died in the last year, by name, as we had done in years past. During the month of November we will offer many Masses for the faithful departed. Please submit the names of your beloved dead on the envelopes that you find in the church and drop them in the collection or at the office. On Sunday, November 15th (and Saturday evening), we have the opportunity for the first time to celebrate together and in a worthy manner the Solemnity of Saint Leopold of Austria, the founder of Klosterneuburg. At all the Masses on that weekend, there will be a chance to venerate the first class relic of the saint, which the Abbot-Primate, Bernard Backovsky gave to us a couple years ago. Saint Leopold fulfilled his Christian vocation as husband, father and statesman. As we look forward to our presidential elections next year, we should invoke the intercession of the holy men and women who served God and man in government. We will have a chance to learn more about him that weekend. On Friday, November 20th, we resume the St. Padre Pio Holy Hour and Mass after a hiatus. We start with the exposition of the Blessed Sacrament at 7:00 pm, enjoy a half an hour of silent prayer, then pray Night Prayer (Compline), the Holy Rosary and other vocal prayers, concluding with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament around 8 pm. The celebration of Mass follows. And finally, on Saturday, November 28th, at the 4 pm Mass we start the season of Advent with the blessing of the advent wreath. If you are interested in buying a fresh cut Christmas tree, please consider ordering one through All Saints: information at www.asrcatholic.org (tab: Wednesday’s Mail) and in the bulletin. Orders are due no later than NOVEMBER 30th! Please order a tree or two. Thank you. God bless you, Father Elias Cari amici in Cristo, Questa Domenica, 25 Ottobre, durante la messa delle 10:15 riconosciamo i bambini che si preparano per la loro prima confessione e prima Comunione. In questa liturgia, i genitori e i loro figli stanno lungo la navata principale della chiesa, in modo da partecipare alla presentazione dei doni. Dopo l'omelia dei bambini, i genitori e i bambini saranno invitati a prendere il loro posto lungo la navata principale, professare la fede, pregare le intercessioni e poi consegnare i doni, lungo la navata principale, del santuario. Dopo gli uscieri prendono la raccolta. Dal momento che questa sarà la prima volta che proviamno questo, vi ringrazio per la vostra pazienza in anticipo! Domenica prossima 1 Novembre (e, naturalmente, la serata di Sabato) è la solennità di Tutti i Santi. Abbiamo invitato i cresimandi - candidati al sacramento della Confermazione - di presentarsi alla parrocchia alla Messa delle 10:15 Padre Ambros celebrerà questa Messa. Lunedi', 2 Novembre, la Commemorazione dei fedeli defunti, celebriamo una Messa speciale per i fedeli defunti alle 19:30. Celebriamo la Santa Messa nella forma ordinaria con canto gregoriano - Padre Ambros ed io cantiamo - gli inni. Pregheremo per tutti i membri della parrocchia che sono morti durante l'ultimo anno, per nome, come abbiamo fatto negli anni passati. Durante il mese di Novembre offriamo molti Messe per i fedeli defunti. Vi prego di scrivere i nomi dei vostri cari defunti sulle buste che trovate nella chiesa e rilasciarli nella collezione o presso l’ufficio. Domenica 15 Novembre (e la Messa di Sabato sera), abbiamo la possibilità per la prima volta di festeggiare insieme e in maniera degna la solennità di San Leopoldo d'Austria, il fondatore di Klosterneuburg. In tutte le Messe di quella fine settimana, ci sarà la possibilità di venerare la reliquia di prima classe del santo, che l'Abate Primate-Bernard Backovsky ha dato a noi un paio di anni fa. San Leopoldo ha realizzato la sua vocazione cristiana come marito, padre e statista. Come siamo ansiosi per le nostre elezioni presidenziali del prossimo anno, dovremmo invocare l'intercessione dei santi e delle sante che hanno servito Dio e l 'uomo nel governo. Avremo la possibilità di imparare di più su di lui quella fine settimana. Venerdì, 20 Novembre riprendiamo l'Ora Santa di San Padre Pio e la Messa dopo una pausa. Si incomincia con l'esposizione del Santissimo Sacramento alle 19:00, godiamo di una mezz'ora di preghiera silenziosa, quindi preghiamo le preghiere della sera (Compieta), il Santo Rosario e altre preghiere vocali, concludendo con la benedizione eucaristica intorno alle 20:00. Segue la celebrazione della Santa Messa. Ed, infine, Sabato, 28 Novembre, alla Messa delle 16:00 iniziamo il tempo di Avvento con la benedizione della corona dell'avvento. Se siete interessati ad acquistare un albero fresco per Natale, vi preghiamo di ordinare uno dalla nostra scuola, di Tutti i Santi: informazioni al www.asrcatholic.org (scheda: Wednesday’s Mail) oppure nel bollettino. Gli ordini terminano entro il 30 NOVEMBRE! Vi prego di ordinare un albero o due. Grazie. Dio Vi benedica, Padre Elias CHURCH OF ST.
