Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine
XI Sunday in Ordinary Time
First Reading: 2 Samuel 12:7-10, 13
Because God was displeased with the actions of David
concerning Uriah's death in order to marry Bathsheba, God
sent Nathan to reprimand David. Nathan reminds David that
God anointed him King of Israel and victor over Saul. David
realizes his sin against God, but Nathan continues to reveal to
David that the child to be born to him shall die.
Second Reading: Galatians 2:16, 19-21
Paul writes of the struggles between Gentiles and Jews who
both now profess belief in Christ Jesus. Paul proclaims his life
in Christ, working towards unity and faith in the Son of God.
Gospel: Luke 7:36―8:3
While Jesus was dining at the home of a Pharisee, a woman of
the city who was a sinner, came and anointed his feet with oil.
Weeping, her tears fell upon Jesus' feet and she dried them
with her hair. Because of the woman's respect and love, Jesus
forgives her sins. This causes those present at the table to
question who he is.
Parish Events
Thank you to those who are
participating. We have 92
families who have donated
and we thank you. However
we are not out our
participation goal of 500 yet. If you wish to make a donation
please do so with the appeal envelopes that were sent to you
or provided by the church. This helps us with our
participation goal. (Please use a check not cash.)
On Friday, June 10th at 7:30 pm the
Rockland County Catholic Choir will present
their spring concert “Songs of Love, Peace and
Hope” at Saint Joseph in the Main Church.
Please join us. A freewill offering will be taken
during this event.
On Tuesday June 14th at 7:30 pm we will
have an open Parish Council Meeting with the
entire parish. This will be the second open
forum that we will have. Please keep note of the
date to reserve it in your calendar.
Pastors Corner:
On Monday June 13, 2016 I would like to make note that
this is the day that Msgr. Vincent Case, my predecessor at
Our Lady of Grace, Bronx, passed away. Some of you may
remember him from long ago here at the parish. This was
his first assignment after his ordination. Msgr. Case,
according to many sources, was a great administrator but a
lover of fine liturgy and music. He could be found on
Saturday evenings in the sacristy cleaning the silver for the
High Mass. I have carried some traditions at the Solemn
Mass at 11:15 a.m. including the grand processions and
beautiful sacred music. This weekend at Mass I will be
using some items that were personal to Msgr. Case as we
honor his memory.
As an administrator of a large parish there are many things
that fall daily on my plate. The first is the spiritual life of
the parish. Our priests make Saint Joseph great and part of
the community. I thank them for their hard work and
dedication. Going out to see the sick in nursing homes and
homebound are just some of what they do. They advise me
on the spiritual life and any important issues that take
place within ministries and in the community.
As part of my canonical duties I must steer the parish in
the correct financial direction. After three years at the
helm I have made my final observations. In order to keep
this ship afloat I will have to make cutbacks across the
board. Starting in August changes will be coming to each
of the various departments and ministries here at the
parish. These are things that have to done to preserve the
church for the next one hundred and twenty two years.
We have a great weekend here at the parish. Father Patrick
is celebrating his fortieth anniversary of ordination on
Saturday and Fr. Christian celebrates a Mass of
Thanksgiving on his ordination. This is great time for the
priesthood and vocations. We are very lucky as I have said
that we have four parish priests; priests willing to serve the
Lord, and not the other way around. “You are a priest
forever in the line of Melchizedek .”God bless you both on
these great achievements.
Finally please do consider enrolling your children in
Summer with Jesus. It is a great way to make sure your
children ill be safe and active in the summer. There are
trips and other great events planned. You can see the CCD
office during the week to register. The early bird specials
are still running.
I thank you for all your support as we continue to thrive
and grow.
In Christ +

11ème dimanche du Temps Ordinaire
Le Coin du Pasteur:
J'aimerais
parler de Mgr. Vincent Case, mon prédécesseur à
Notre-Dame de Grace, Bronx. Certains d'entre vous se
souviennent peut-être de lui. Saint Joseph était sa première
affectation après son ordination. Mgr. Case, selon de
nombreuses sources, a été un grand administrateur mais aussi
un amoureux de la liturgie et de la bonne musique; on le
retrouvait chaque samedi soir dans la sacristie à nettoyer les
accessoires devant être utilisées à la messe solennelle.
Monseigneur Case est décédé un 13 juin et en sa mémoire, j'ai
gardé certaines traditions, comme la procession et la belle
musique sacrée, et spécialement ce week-end, à la messe, je
vais utiliser certaines ustensiles qui lui étaient personnelles.
1ère lecture: 2 S 12, 7-10.13
Le Seigneur a passé sur ton péché :
tu ne mourras pas.
Psaume: Ps 31 (32), 1-2, 5abcd, 5ef.7, 10bc-11
R: Enlève, Seigneur ’offense de ma faute.
2ème lecture: Ga 2, 16.19-21
Je vis, mais ce n’est plus moi,
c’est le Christ qui vit en moi.
Evangile: Lc 7, 36 – 8, 3
Ses nombreux péchés sont pardonnés, puisqu'
’elle a montré beaucoup d’amour
Comme
S’il savait qui est cette femme…
Difficile de se faire une
idée sur l’identité de Jésus.
Simon le pharisien en est
certain : Jésus est un
prophète. Tout récemment,
dans la ville de Naïma, il a
ressuscité le fils d’une veuve… sans compter qu’il a fait
manger plus de cinq mille hommes avec cinq pains et
deux poissons. Voilà pourquoi Simon a invité Jésus
chez lui. Mais, alors qu’ils sont attablés, l’improbable se
produit : pourquoi Jésus se laisse-t-il toucher par cette
pécheresse ? Le doute ébranle la certitude de Simon.
Comme l’odeur du parfum répandu par la femme, la
confusion gagne tous les convives. Qui est-il, cet
homme, vraiment ? Un prophète ferait-il ainsi ? Ce jourlà, Simon le pharisien comprendra deux choses à propos
de Jésus. La première est que le pardon des péchés est
un mystère propre à Dieu et difficilement accessible au
cœur humain.
a seconde, c’est que le salut vient par la foi au Christ
et l’attachement qu’on lui montre. Personne ne peut se
sauver lui-même. Simon le pharisien va-t-il mieux saisi
la portée de son propre péché, l’accueil que Jésus faisait
à cette femme, le lien que Jésus entretenait avec Dieu ?
Nous n’en saurons rien. Et c’est peut-être là que réside
la bonne nouvelle pour nous, aujourd’hui.
administrateur d'une si importante paroisse il y a
beaucoup de choses qui me tombent dessus chaque jour: la
première est la vie spirituelle de la paroisse; nos prêtres font un
travail extraordinaire; en plus de leur sacerdoce, ils me tiennent
informer sur la vie spirituelle de la paroisse, sont présents dans
les ministères et ont un œil sur ce qui se passe dans notre
paroisse. Je les remercie de leur dévouement et leur dur labeur.
Dans le cadre de mes fonctions canoniques je dois
financièment mener la paroisse dans la bonne direction. Après
trois années, j'ai fait mes observations finales. Afin de
continuer à bien fonctionner et garantir le 244ème anniversaire
de la paroisse, nous devons faire des compressions budgétaires.
À partir du mois d'août nous aurons des changements à tous les
niveaux.
Nous
avons un excellent week-end ici à la paroisse. Le père
Patrick célèbre son quarantième anniversaire d'ordination ce
samedi et Fr. Christian Amah, une messe d'action de grâces
pour son ordination. C'est extraordinaire pour le sacerdoce et
les vocations. Comme je l’ai toujours dit, nous sommes très
chanceux d’avoir quatre prêtres prêts à servir le Seigneur.
"Vous êtes un prêtre à jamais ( Melchisédech)". Que Dieu vous
bénisse pour tant de grandes réalisations!
Enfin pensez à inscrire vos enfants dans le “camp d’été avec
Jésus”. Vous pouvez vous renseigner au bureau de CCD au
cours de la semaine. Le “early bird” programme est toujours en
cours d'exécution.
Je vous remercie pour votre soutien qui nous
permet de grandir et prospérer.
inalement, « tout comprendre » ou « avoir toutes les
réponses » sur le Christ n’a pas beaucoup de sens. Ce
qui compte, c’est la reconnaissance, la complicité,
l’attachement et la curiosité dont nous témoignons
envers lui.
Dans le Christ,
Pere Levelt Germain, Cure

Decimo Primer Domingo En Tiempo Ordinario
Primer Lectura: 2 Samuel 12:7-10, 13
Dios estaba disgustado por las acciones de David con
respecto a la muerte de Urías para casarse con Betsabé.
Dios envió a Natán para castigar a David. Natán le
recuerda a David que Dios lo envistió como Rey de
Israel y le dió la victoria sobre Saúl.
Segunda Lectura: Gálatas 2:16, 19-21
Pablo escribe sobre los problemas entre gentiles y
judíos. Ambos grupos profesan su creencia en Jesús.
Pablo proclama su vida en Cristo, trabajando para
alcanzar unidad y fé en el Hijo de Dios.
Evangelio: San Lucas 7:36―8:3
Mientras Jesús cenaba en la casa de un fariseo, una
pecadora de la ciudad vino y untó aceite en sus pies.
Llorando, sus lágrimas cayeron sobre los pies de Jesús y
luego los secó con su cabello. Por el respeto y amor que
la mujer demostró, Jesús le perdonó sus pecados. .
“Yo te ungí rey de Israel y te libré
de las manos de Saúl; te entregué la
casa de tu señor… y por si esto
fuera poco, añadiría otro tanto y
aún más. ¿Por qué entonces has
despreciado la palabra del Señor,
haciendo lo que es malo a sus
ojos?... Yo estoy crucificado con
Cristo, ya no vivo yo, sino que
Cristo vive en mí.”
Rincón del Párroco:
El lunes 13 de junio de 2016 me gustaría hacer notar que este
es el día en que Mons. Vicente caso, mi predecesor en Nuestra
Señora de Gracia, Bronx, falleció. Algunos de ustedes pueden
recordar de él desde hace mucho tiempo aquí en la parroquia.
Esta fue su primera asignación después de su ordenación
sacerdotal. Mons. Así, según muchas fuentes, fue un gran
administrador, sino un amante de la multa de la liturgia y de la
música. Él fue encontrado el sábado por la noche la limpieza
de la plata para alta misa. He realizado algunas tradiciones en
la misa solemne a las 11:15 horas incluyendo el grand
procesiones y algunos de los más gloriosos de la música sacra.
Este fin de semana en la Misa estaré utilizando algunos
elementos que eran personales a Mons. Caso como yo para
honrar su memoria.
Como administrador de una parroquia, hay muchas cosas que
caen sobre mi plato. La primera es la vida espiritual de la
parroquia. Los sacerdotes que hacen de San José gran trabaja
día a día para cuidar de sus necesidades. Les doy las gracias
por su arduo trabajo y dedicación. Como me gusta salir y
reunirse con la gente y verlos en la Misa, asisto a las
necesidades financieras de la parroquia. También estoy muy
transparente en nuestra posición financiera. Durante el decenio
pasado, la parroquia los edificios del campus no se mantenían
como deberían ser. Bien lo soluciona sólo exasperado a los
problemas. ¿Te acuerdas de la película "The Money Pit" con
Tom Hanks? Parece a veces estoy viviendo, especialmente con
el techo gotea cuando llueve, entre otras cosas.
Como
acostumbrados a hacer listas. Está la lista de
cosas por hacer, la del mercado, prioridades, la
Navideña, itinerarios. Tal parece que nos ayudan a
organizarnos, a ahorrar energía, a lograr buenas cosas.
También hay listas de cosas que se deben evitar, como
ciertos alimentos, plantas o medicamentos.
parte de mis funciones canónicas debo dirigir la
parroquia en la correcta dirección financiera. Después de tres
años al timón he hecho mis observaciones finales. A fin de
mantener este barco a flote, tendre que hacer recortes de toda la
junta. A partir de agosto cambios vendrán a cada uno de los
distintos departamentos aquí en la parroquia. Estas son cosas
que tienen que hacer para preservar la parroquia para los
próximos cien y veintidós años.
El
Qué gran semana aquí
Estamos
libro de Samuel encuentra a Natán hablando por el
Señor. La lista del ungimiento, rescate y el don de su
casa. David debería haber mostrado gratitud. El profeta
entonces dice que podría seguir listando, pero que no lo
hará, porque quiere que piense sobre todos los dones y
de dónde proceden.
El
Señor puede hablarnos de la misma forma. Quién
soy, lo que tengo y a dónde me dirijo son dones. Tengo
vida, la vida de gracia, todo por un Dios generoso. Mi
familia, trabajo, estudios, felicidad y alegría. Todos son
dones. Con el salmista yo pido, luego de completar mi
lista ‘¿Con qué pagaré al Señor todo el bien que me
hizo? La pregunta del evangelio hoy ‘¿Cuál de ellos
amará más?’
en la parroquia. El padre Patrick está
celebrando su 40º aniversario de la ordenación sacerdotal en la
parroquia en sábado. El domingo celebramos un nuevo
sacerdote de la arquidiócesis, Fr. Amah cristiana como él se
celebra una Misa de Acción de Gracias el domingo en la
parroquia.
Finalmente
por favor considere matricular a sus hijos en
verano con Jesús. Es una gran manera de asegurarse de que su
niño enfermo es segura y activa en el verano. Hay viajes y
otros grandes acontecimientos previstos. Puede consultar la
oficina de CCD durante la semana para registrarse. Las
primeras aves ofertas aún se están ejecutando.
Le
doy las gracias por todo el apoyo que seguimos para
prosperar y crecer.
En Cristo +,
