2 Living the Word of Christ Together Pastor: Parochial Vicar: Deacons: Office Administrator: Rectory Phone: Office Phone: Fax: website: Father Bruce Riebe Father Jan Cizmar Bill Fredrick, Robert Kirschner Michele Wiltshire ETERNAL MEMORY Marked on our liturgical calendar this month can be found two of the five Saturdays on which we publicly commemorate our beloved departed. This year those dates are February 20 and 27 (2nd and 3rd All Souls). On these five Saturdays our Church has us remember publicly those who have departed from us to eternal life with the offering of a Divine Liturgy followed by a Panachida during which all the names of our beloved deceased are commemorated and read. As we prepare for the radiant resurrection of our Savior from the dead, our Church reminds us particularly during the period of the Great Fast that death separates us only bodily from our loved ones, not spiritually. Sacred Scripture, Holy Tradition and the writings of the Saints help us focus on death as a transition from earthly to everlasting life. The beautiful prayer attributed to Saint Francis of Assisi ends,...it is in dying that we are born to everlasting life. Saint Paul, writing to the Corinthians for the first time, declares, I tell you a mystery...we shall all be changed. For this perishable nature must put on the imperishable, and this mortal nature must put on immortality. When the perishable puts on the imperishable, and the mortal puts on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting? The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains, Death is the end of man s earthly pilgrimage, of the time of grace and mercy which God offers him so as to work out his earthly life in keeping with the divine plan, and to decide his ultimate destiny. For this reason, since a person who has passed from this life can no longer merit God s favor, the Church urges us, the living, to pray on their behalf for their blessed repose especially on the yearly anniversary of death in addition to the All Souls Saturdays described earlier. It has been a respected and pious practice at the time of death to request the celebration of the Divine Liturgy for the repose of the newly departed. Although death understandably brings sorrow, grief and lamentation, since as humans we experience these emotions, the evangelist John writes in the Book of Revelation, I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away...god Himself will wipe away every tear...and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away. (21:1-4) Moreover, as Christians we are inspired by Jesus words to Martha at the tomb of her brother, Lazarus, I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me, although he dies, yet shall he live, and whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. (John 11:25) May our beloved deceased rest in peace and their memory be eternal.

5 SUNDAY OF THE CROSS Paul reminded the Corinthians, We proclaim Christ crucified. Christ s weakness is stronger than any human strength. The power of the cross is greater than anything the world or evil has to combat it. The Lenten season is one of repentance, self-denial, almsgiving, and prayer. Many in our modern world do not see any wisdom in denying themselves anything. Those swept away in a consumer culture want more and they want it faster, bigger, and better. They also are looking for easy and quick satisfaction, unwilling to wait long. Paul speaks of the foolishness of God and how it is wiser than any human wisdom. Lent is a time to put aside that which we feel and think as humans and put on the attitude of Christ. The cross of Christ is neither very easy nor fleeting, and it will ask us to deny our very selves for him. To the human mind it makes no sense. However, by putting on Christ and seeing with His eyes, we see reality with clarity. Our sacrifice can lead to riches that only a foolish man would cover. But it is exactly there that we are satisfied and fulfilled. Our ByzanTEENS are once again involved with a Honey Baked Ham fundraiser. This year the procedure is a bit different. A gift card needs to be purchased on-line (Go to: honeybakedfundraiser.sbgiftcards.com/stjoseph-byzanteen-fundraiser). If you plan on buying a Honey Baked Ham for Easter or just want to support our teens, make sure you order that gift card. It will be shipped directly to whatever address you d like it to go. If you have questions, call our Youth Director, Ron Misconish ( ). ByzanTEEN Day of Recollection The ByzanTEEN Lenten Day of Recollection is today at the Cathedral in Parma at 2:00. We d like all of our teens to participate in this spiritual opportunity. The 2016 National ByzanTEEN Youth Rally will be held in the Cleveland area! Notre Dame College in South Euclid is the site.
