5 WELCOME TO HOLY NAME OF JESUS PARISH, SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA Page 5 CATECHISM CORNER #33 by Jerry Back We have all by now heard the big news of the soon-to-be arriving Fr. Arnold Zamora to Holy Name of Jesus Parish. Thank you to Fr. D'Angelo for letting us know in advance at last week's services. I know for me, there will be some bittersweet feelings. It will be sad to see Fr. D'Angelo retire. There is also optimism and anticipation regarding Father Zamora's arrival. Ultimately, we are a parish and are united in that need to have that pastoral care. Question: What is a parish and why do we need to belong to one? Answer from the Catechism of the Catholic Church (2179): "A parish is a definite community of the Christian faithful established on a stable basis within a particular church; the pastoral care of the parish is entrusted to a pastor as its own shepherd under the authority of the diocesan bishop." It is the place where all the faithful can be gathered together for the Sunday celebration of the Eucharist. The parish initiates the Christian people into the ordinary expression of the liturgical life: it gathers them together in this celebration; it teaches Christ's saving doctrine; it practices the charity of the Lord in good works and brotherly love: You cannot pray at home as at church, where there is a great multitude, where exclamations are cried out to God as from one great heart, and where there is something more: the union of minds, the accord of souls, the bond of charity, the prayers of the priests. Question: Who appoints a priest to be pastor of a parish? Answer from the Catechism (1595): Priests are united with the bishops in sacerdotal dignity and at the same time depend on them in the exercise of their pastoral functions; they are called to be the bishops' prudent co-workers. They form around their bishop the presbyterium which bears responsibility with him for the particular Church. They receive from the bishop the charge of a parish community or a determinate ecclesial office.
