FRIDAY FASTING AND INTENTION Our faith lost one of its beautiful traditions not long after the Second Vatican Council when the Church eased the practice of not eating meat on Fridays which commemorated the day of our Lord s death. We pray that this minor tradition that can make a major spiritual impact in our lives will one day return for the benefit of all Catholics who devoutly embrace their faith. Our Parish extends an offer each week to our parishioners who have an interest in participating in our Friday fasting. The purpose, first and foremost, is to maintain an awareness in our lives that Friday is the day our Lord died on the Cross and was laid in the tomb for our salvation. Our fasting each week, however, will also be for a specific intention that appears weekly in this column. Thus, our fasting is twofold; sacrificing one meal, and abstaining from eating meat. The intention for this coming Friday is for vocations to the Priesthood and Religious Life in our Diocese of Worcester in this Year of Consecrated Life. WELCOME TO FR. ENOCH We welcome to our Parish Fr. Enoch Kusi Kyeremateng from the Archdiocese of Kumasi in the African country of Ghana. Fr. Enoch is here in America to study for a Master s Degree from Assumption College for the next two years, study that will eventually serve and benefit his home Diocse in Ghana. He will be living at Immaculate Conception during his duration in Worcester. Please welcome Fr. Enoch to our faith community when you have an opportunity to do so. May God bless his studies over the next 2 years as he continues to serve the Church of Ghana from a distance, and also bring his gifts to Immaculate Conception and the African community in Worcester. SCARISTAN FOR 4:00 MASS We offer many thanks to Doris Herrmann who has been setting up at the 4:00 Mass for many years now. Doris would like to retire from this position, thus we are offering the position of sacristan to someone in the parish who attends the 4:00 Mass and would like to perform a ministry. If you are interested or would like to find out more about what a sacristan does, please speak with Fr. Riley. ON COMMITMENT TO ECUMENISM Dialogue does not extend exclusively to matters of doctrine but engages the whole person; it is also a dialogue of love. The Council has stated: Catholics must joyfully acknowledge and esteem the truly Christian endowments from our common heritage which are to be found among our separated brothers and sisters. It is right and salutary to recognize the riches of Christ and virtuous works in the lives of others who are bearing witness to Christ, sometimes even to the shedding of their blood. For God is always wonderful in his works and worthy of admiration. St. John Paul II, from Ut Unum Sint, On commitment to Ecumenism (1995) RELIGIOUS LIBERTY Under duress, St. Thomas More remained faithful to the truth of divine and ecclesial realities rather than yield to the force of an earthly king. Although condemned to death, Thomas More, like Christ, was truly free and faithful. After his sufferings in the tower of London, Thomas joked with the man assigned to be his executioner, who would drop the sharp-edged blade on his neck. In a later age, the poet Paul Claudel, would honor such inner freedom in his admonition: To mount the Cross laughing. Bishop Paul S. Loverde, Diocese of Arlington, VA.

RELIGIOUS QUOTE OF THE WEEK Crisis in the family has produced an ecological crisis, for social environments, like natural environments, need protection. And although the human race has come to the need to address conditions that menace our natural environments, we have been slower we have been slower in our culture, and also in our Catholic culture to recognize that our fragile social environments are also at risk. It is therefore essential that we foster a new human ecology. Pope Francis (1936-) 15th ANNUAL DIOCESAN CATHOLIC MEN S CON- FERENCE All men are invited to this important annual conference, scheduled for Worcester s DCU Center, on Saturday, March 21, For a Conference brochure, further information, or registration, call visit our websitewww.firstmensconf.org-for information and ticket purchases. More information in next week s bulletin. From the Pastor Continued from the following page what can she actually believe about God if she was never introduced to her Creator from an early age? What results when this happens is profound confusion. And I ve witnessed this firsthand a bit too often. Jesus didn t call any atheists or anyone unfamiliar with the ways of God when he called his disciples. Even the tax collector Matthew was familiar with the God of Israel. He called disciples who were familiar with the Lord, thanks to their being taught from the start. With that said, we pray for the young and older who are searching for some meaning in life. And if we are presented the chance to guide someone to the Lord whom may have been cheated for any reason in the early part of their lives, may we be the catalyst to help them find their Creator. Peace, Fr. Riley
5 FROM THE PASTOR All siblings should be this kind to one another. When Andrew led his brother Simon to the presence of the Lord, little did Andrew know that he was leading Simon, who would become Peter the Rock, to a meeting that would lead Peter to guard the Pearly Gates of Heaven itself. A simple, uneventful meeting that blossoms into Apostleship. An unexpected meeting with Jesus that leads to a Chair in Rome to this Very day, occupied by a present priest who chose the name Francis. Talk about the unexpected, and what God can do! When Andrew introduced his brother Simon to the Rabbi, it s not like either one of the brothers had no religious background when Jesus called them. They were handed, throughout the course of their early lives, the teachings of their forefathers. The seeds were planted in Peter and Andrew to go on and become Apostles of the Lord. They were not raw in terms of religious instruction. To be Jewish at the time of Christ was to be familiar with the many prayers and laws that were ingrained in the daily thinking and living of the Jewish people. Peter and Andrew undoubtedly were familiar with the Psalms of David. Since they were probably illiterate, which was common 2000 years ago, I m certain they had many of the Psalms memorized, reciting there prayers each day in their worship of the one, true God who revealed himself to the chosen people of Israel. We may easily forget today, with so much busyness in the lives of so many families to the point where worshipping God takes a backseat to human activities, that the Jewish family, village, and town of Jesus day were ensconced with the daily practice of their religious living. To those people, putting God on the back-burner at any time meant they were worshipping idols All began with love of God. So when Jesus was approached that day by Andrew and Simon, and the two brothers being invited to find out where he was staying, they entered with hearts ready for Apostleship. Their foundation of being introduced to God by their peers and, most likely, parents, had been set. There are times we can think of the Apostles of the Lord as being purely raw with regard to their faith. Jesus himself is critical at times of their slowness to grasp what he s all about, such as when Peter walked on water initially, then began to sink for lack of faith. It s easy to forget that their Godfoundation was alive and well as a result of their upbringing in the Jewish tradition. The past two weeks we ve celebrated the Feast of the Epiphany and the Baptism f the Lord. We were introduced to Christ by the Magi, and incorporated into the Body of Christ, the Church, in Baptism, most likely by our parents. We depended upon others in both situations. The message here is to express the importance of trusting others who have given us much in the faith, and also our responsibility of passing on to others the gifts we have received. I recently became familiar with a situation where the parents of a young adult allowed their daughter to be raised without introduction to God in any way. The reason was that she could make up her own mind as to what she wanted to believe when she was old enough. With all due respect, such thinking and practice is one of miserable failure in the God department. My question can only be, When she does get old enough, From the Pastor is continued on the previous page
