3 N OV E M B E R 12-13, GOSPEL REFLECTION THE PSTOR S CORNER Saint Cecilia One of the many things I love about our parish is the music and our choir. St. Cecilia is the patron saint of music, so it is no wonder that we are gifted in that area. Thanks to our choir director, Bob Kellison, we have a large choir that has been able to bring sacred music to all of our liturgies. If you know of any parishioners who are looking for a ministry and have the desire to sing, please ask them to join our choir. If you have the gift of song, being a part of our choir gives you the chance to share your gift and talent and that is true stewardship. If you don t feel like you can commit to participating in the choir, then sing out in your pew! Singing is the highest form of praise, and as St. ugustine said, He who sings prays twice! men? men! LUKE 21:5-19 by FTHER JSON WILLIMS By your perseverance you will secure your lives. Throughout Luke s account of the Gospel he weaves a thread that holds much of his entire work together. Time and again the distinction between worldly things and those of heaven comes to the fore in the teachings and parables of Jesus. With that in mind we can better grasp what our Lord wants to bring to our attention in this passage before us today. Otherwise it s difficult to overcome the seeming contradiction between the they will put some of you to death and the not a hair on your head will be destroyed. In short, the Lord s reminding us that it s not just about this life. We are destined for something much greater: the unending life of heaven. t some point in time each of us will reach the end of our earthly life. There is nothing we can do to change that. However, we hope that when that moment does arrive and we stand before the merciful Judge, we will have persevered in cooperating with his grace so as to secure our future, eternal happiness: the fullness of life in union with our loving God. May the God who constantly invites each of us into a deeper communion of life and love with him also grant us the gift of persevering in his grace. May he strengthen us by his love, feed us with Word and Sacrament, and spur us on to eternal life through the hope of the Resurrection. 3

4 SINT CECILI ROMN CTHOLIC PRISH C L OSER LOOK T O UR FITH Catechesis How can Sacred Scripture be truth if not everything in it is right? The Bible is not meant to convey precise historical information or scientific findings to us. Moreover, the authors were children of their time. They shared the cultural ideas of the world around them and often were also dominated by its errors. Nevertheless, everything that man must know about God and the way of his salvation is found with infallible certainty in Sacred Scripture. [ , 109]. (YOUCT question 14) Liturgical Facts We continue our mini-series on the liturgical vestments of the priest and deacon. Today, we shall focus on the next liturgical vestment: the dalmatic. The dalmatic is a long widesleeved tunic worn by a deacon at Mass, which serves as a liturgical vestment in the Church. It may also be worn by bishops above the alb and below the chasuble, though this use would be infrequent. Like the chasuble worn by priests and bishops, it is an outer vestment and is supposed to match the liturgical color of the day. In 18th-century vestment fashion, it is customary to slit the underside of the sleeves so that the dalmatic becomes a mantle like a scapular with an opening for the head and two square pieces of the material falling from the shoulder over the upper arm. Modern dalmatics tend to be longer and have closed sleeves, with the sides being open below the sleeve. The distinctive ornamentation of the vestment consists of two vertical stripes running from the shoulder to the hem. THE QUOTE OF THE WEEK Only when we meet the living God in Christ do we know what life is. There is nothing more beautiful than to be surprised by the Gospel by the encounter with Christ. Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI Know Your Saints SINT JOSPHT was born John Kuncevic in the Ukraine around He worked as a merchant until 1604, when he became a monk of the Ukrainian Order of Saint Basil and took the name Josaphat. Five years later, he was ordained a priest of the Byzantine Church. People came to him for spiritual advice. They were moved by his preaching and by his life, for he fasted often and was faithful to the prayers and customs of the people. In his thirties, he was made bishop of Vitebsk and then archbishop of Polotsk. He found the diocese in terrible condition, and he saw much unrest among the people. Josaphat had been raised in the Byzantine culture, and he was also faithful to the rule of the Church of Rome. There were strong groups, however, who opposed Rome and Latin rule. These people named their own bishop. Disturbances broke out as people took sides. Josaphat decided to go to Vitebsk, the center of the disturbance. While Josaphat was there, a priest named Elias kept shouting insults at him. deacon had the priest locked up. The mob rioted and demanded the release of Elias. He was released, but the angry mob broke through all barriers until they made their way to Bishop Josaphat. They beat him and then shot him to death on November 12, The man who had worked for unity all his life was killed by a violent mob. People were shocked, and much honor was paid to his memory. 4

Thank you to our PTO for putting on such a fun event. 1 LL SINTS PRDE: We had a wonderful turnout at our annual saint parade on Sunday, Oct. 30, at the 10:00 Mass (photos, below).

It is always nice to visit a parishioner s house and do a house blessing. Thank you, Fraziers, for the hospitality. 1 QUINCENER: On Sunday, Oct. 22, Mariana Gomez Huerta (photo, left) celebrated her Quinceanera at St. Cecilia, and it was a lovely Mass.
