2 FROM THE DESK OF FATHER DERIVAN CHURCH OF ST. THERESA, BRONX APRIL 26, 2015-FOURTH SUNDAY OF EASTER WORLD DAY OF PRAYER FOR VOCATIONS We all have our favorite pictures of Our Lord. Of course we do not have an exact picture of Our Lord as He walked on the earth. But for all the centuries of Christian history, artists have tried to represent Jesus in their art, showing their faith in the paintings they produced. There are so many. Perhaps you think of the beautiful painting of Leonardo da Vinci, the Last Supper, with Jesus giving His apostles Holy communion for the first time. Perhaps you think of Michelangelo s magnificent picture of Jesus coming again in glory in the Last Judgment, which the artist painted in the Sistine Chapel in Rome. It is interesting to know that the most common representation of Our Lord in the early church was of Jesus the Good Shepherd, as He described Himself in the gospel we have just heard. In the catacombs in Rome, those underground burial places for those who died for Christ, we find the picture of Jesus as a young shepherd, carrying a sheep on His shoulders, bringing the sheep safely home. Notice the Lord Jesus is portrayed as a young shepherd, filled with life, filled with love for His sheep. Is there any more beautiful way of thinking of Our Lord Jesus than as the Good Shepherd, the Shepherd of our lives, the Shepherd who carries us on His shoulders and leads us home? I am the Good Shepherd, the Lord tells us, I know my own, and my own know me. We do not live in a society familiar with shepherds and sheep. But even so, this beautiful image of our Lord says so much. I know my own and my own know me. Our retired Pope Benedict has a beautiful reflection on this. The Pope writes, Truly, Jesus knows us, even more deeply than we know ourselves, and he has a plan for each one of us. We know, too that wherever he calls us, we will find happiness and fulfillment; indeed we will find our very selves. The shepherd of centuries ago and shepherds even in our time knew their sheep. They knew them individually, calling each by name. The sheep were other members of the shepherd s family, as dear to him as his children. We can understand what the Lord means when He says, I know my own and my own know me. Jesus knows us, as the Pope says, and He has a plan for us. The question of our lives, the question of every day is, Do we know Him? Do we know Him in prayer? Do we take more time in prayer to know Him better? Do you know Him in our families, realizing that the Lord Jesus is the hidden member of every Christian family and that He is with our families day in and day out? Do we know him here in this church and in every church, do we take time to adore Him in the Blessed Sacrament, realizing that this is Jesus the Good Shepherd who gives Himself to us? Do we know Jesus in the eyes and faces of those in need, those we try to help, those we treat with compassion and love? Do we know Jesus? And then do we know ourselves? Do we realize that we are the sheep in that picture from the catacombs? Do we realize that Jesus hoists us on His shoulders, not letting us wander away, bringing us safely home to His Father? In our most difficult moments, do we trust Jesus enough to put our lives in His hands and let Him lead us on? Do we really believe that Jesus knows His own and that He means that each one of us is His own forever? Reflect on this beautiful image of Jesus the Good Shepherd. Let that image be in your mind and heart and in your prayers this week. Pope Benedict gives us this message, Rejoice that the Lord has made you members of his flock and knows each of you by name Follow Him with joy and let him guide you in all your ways. Jesus knows what challenges you face, what trials you endure, and the good that you do in His name. Trust in him, in his enduring love for all the members of his flock, and persevere in your witness to the triumph of his love. Father Thomas B. Derivan A MESSAGE OF POPE FRANCIS FOR THE EASTER SEASON He rose again on the third day, in accordance with the Scriptures. Our belief in Christ s Resurrection is the very heart of our faith, the basis of our hope in God s promises and our trust in his victory over sin and death. The first witnesses of the Resurrection were women: moved by love to go to the tomb, they accept with joy the message of the Resurrection and then tell the good news to the Apostles. So it must be with us; we need to share the joy born of our faith in the Resurrection! In Church s history, women have had a special role in opening doors to faith in Christ, for faith is always a response to love. With the eyes of faith, we too encounter the Risen Lord in the many signs of his presence: the Scriptures, the Eucharist and the other sacraments, and the acts of charity, goodness, forgiveness and mercy which bring a ray of his Resurrection into our world. May our faith in the Risen Christ enable us to be living signs in our world of the triumph of life and hope over evil, sin and death. Pope Francis ST.

3 FROM THE DESK OF FATHER DERIVAN II: FOURTH SUNDAY OF EASTER Today is the Feast of Our Lady of Shkodra, patroness of Albania. We rejoice with our Albanian parishioners in celebrating this feast of Our Lady, patroness of their country. As you will read below, the story of the miraculous image of Our Lady of Shkodra (Good Counsel) involves both Albania and Italy. The image of Our Lady of Shkodra provided consolation to the Albanian people during time of persecution. Then by God s miraculous power the image was transferred to the town of Genazzano in Italy where it continues to be revered. Our Lady of Shkodra therefore is a manifestation of her love and help both to the people of Albania and to the people of Italy and reflects the fine tradition of unity among the Albanian and the Italian people. To honor Our Lady of Shkodra is to honor Our Lady Mother of God. We have many titles under which Our Lady is honored. Many of them reflect places such as Lourdes (France), Fatima (Portugal), Guadalupe (Mexico), Czestochowa (Poland) and La Vang (Vietnam). Both, in a sense, all of them are the same. They all manifest our love for Mary and our trust that she will lead us closer to Jesus her Son. We should always remember the devotion to Mary is devotion to Jesus her Son. Mary always leads us to Jesus. This week we also observe the feast of St. Louis de Montfort (see below). St. Louis encouraged what he called true devotion to Mary, emphasizing To Jesus through Mary. Let the feast of Our Lady of Shkodra and the feast of St. Louis de Montfort remind us of the importance for each of us to grow in our love for Our Blessed Mother. As we begin the month of May this week, may we all come closer to Mary for, in so doing, we come closer to Jesus. May Our Blessed Mother, whom we honor today under the title of Our Lady of Shkodra continue to guide and protect the people of Albania and Italy and indeed all of us. Father Thomas B. Derivan APRIL 28 ST. LOUIS MARY DE MONTFORT ( ) Louis s life is inseparable from his efforts to promote genuine devotion to Mary, the mother of Jesus and mother of the Church. Totus tuus (completely yours) was Louis s personal motto; Karol Wojtyla chose it as his Episcopal motto. Born in the Breton village of Montfort, close to Rennes (France), as an adult Louis identified himself by the place of his Baptism instead of his family name, Grignion. After being educated by the Jesuits and the Sulpicians, he was ordained as a diocesan priest in Soon he began preaching parish missions throughout western France. His years of ministering to the poor prompted him to travel and live very simply, sometimes getting him into trouble with Church authorities. In his preaching, which attracted thousands of people back to the faith, Father Louis recommended frequent, even daily, Holy Communion (not the custom then) and imitation of the Virgin Mary s ongoing acceptance of God s will for her life. Louis founded the Missionaries of the Company of Mary (for priests and brothers) and the Daughters of Wisdom, who cared especially for the sick. His book, True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin, has become a classic explanation of Marian devotion. Louis died in Saint-Laurent-sur-Sévre, where a basilica has been erected in his honor. He was canonized in Like Mary, Louis experienced challenges in his efforts to follow Jesus. Opposed at times in his preaching and in his other ministries, Louis knew with St. Paul, Neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who causes the growth (1 Corinthians 3:7). Any attempt to succeed by worldly standards runs the risk of betraying the Good News of Jesus. Mary is the first and most perfect disciple, as the late Raymond Brown, S.S., described her. Quote: Mary is the fruitful Virgin, and in all the souls in which she comes to dwell she causes to flourish purity of heart and body, rightness of intention and abundance of good works. Do not imagine that Mary, the most fruitful of creatures who gave birth to a God, remains barren in a faithful soul. It will be she who makes the soul live incessantly for Jesus Christ, and will make Jesus live in the soul (True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin). WANTED-FEAST VOLUNTEERS AND SPONSORS: Preparations for our 19th annual Feast to be held July 22-26, are well underway.

4 APRIL 26, 2015 THE STORY OF OUR LADY OF SHKODRA (OUR LADY OF GOOD COUNSEL) The story of Our Lady of Shkodra ( Good Counsel) is in part the story of Albanian Catholicism. Albanians nourished a particular devotion and love for the Virgin Mary and in particular, a beautiful icon of Our Lady which hung on the wall over the main altar in the Church of Zoja e Bekueme. During the time when the Ottoman Turks were advancing in the fifteenth century, it became a source of consolation and encouragement. One day during the siege of Shkodra, two escaping Albanians stopped at the Church of Zofa e Bekueme to pray for their safe journey. While praying fervently, they suddenly noticed the painting moving away from the wall. The two Albanians followed the painting, as if it were a bright star, all the way to Rome, where the image disappeared. They heard rumors that a miraculous image had appeared in Genazzano. They went to the nearby town and there discovered the painting of their beloved Zoja e Bekueme. The two settled down and made Genazzano their home. Who is Our Lady of Good counsel? When Pope Sixtus III ( ) called for help in renovating the Papal Basilica of Saint Mary Major, the people of Genazzano contributed generously and property was given to the town on which a church was eventually built, with the title Our Lady of Good Counsel. With the passage of time the church became decrepit and ill-kempt. During the year of the miracle, 1467, a local widow named Petruccia de Geneo felt herself called to spend her meager funds on needed repairs. Her friends and neighbors thought her plan presumptuous. They scoffed and ridiculed her, laughingly calling the effort Petruccia s Folly. Her efforts were nevertheless rewarded in a marvelous manner. On St. Mark s Day, April 25, 1467, the entire population of the city was participating in the yearly festival in honor of the day s patron. About 4 o clock in the afternoon the merrymakers began to hear the strains of exquisite music. Then, while they silently gazed at the sky for the source of the singing, they saw, in an otherwise clear sky, a mysterious cloud that descended until it obliterated an unfinished wall of the church. Before the thousands of awe-struck revelers, the cloud parted and dissipated, revealing a portrait of Our Lady and the Christ Child. This was resting on the top of the unfinished wall that was only a few feet high. It is said that the church bells of the city rang of their own accord, attracting people from outlying areas who hurried to investigate the untimely ringing. Petruccia, who had been praying in another area, rushed to the scene when she heard the bells and fell down in tears before the miraculous image. All of Italy came to visit the blessed and very beautiful image of Mary which appeared on the wall without human intervention. The fresco has unexplainably remained suspended in the air close to the wall of the chapel in the church of Our Lady of Good Counsel for over five hundred years, whence the image derives its name. The Feast of Our Lady of Good Counsel is April 26. CONFESSIONS are heard every Saturday from 4:00PM-5:00PM or by appointment in the Rectory. A PRAYER FOR PRIESTS O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, We adore You and we love You with all our hearts. We come before You, humbly and prayerfully, to intercede for all Your holy priesthood. (We lift up in a special way all the priests who reside in our diocese) Father, we give You thanks with grateful hearts for the faithful witness of so many priest-sons. Bless and protect them, Father, hold them and shelter them in the palm of Your Hand. Jesus, Eternal High Priest, we lift up to You those priests who suffer and struggle, those who are heavy-burdened, and those who have lost their way. Bless and heal them, Jesus, You Who have said, Come to Me all you who find life burdensome and I will give you rest. Holy Spirit, Eternal Love of the Father and the Son, pour out Your Love, Your Gifts, and Your Graces on every priest of God. Strengthen them, Holy Spirit, fill them and assure them of our love. O Mary, Mother of Jesus, Queen and Mother of all priests, intercede for these special sons of Yours. Hold them in Your Immaculate Heart, cradle them in Your arms, Protect them from every evil bent against them, We would like to thank Gina Gentile and the members of the Cabaret for the wonderful performances and laughs they provided for their audience.
