The Catholic Family of the Five Towns:
The Future of Our Three Parishes
Weekend Mass Schedule - (beginning October 1, 2015)
The Diocese required that the proposed plan include a weekend
Mass Schedule that could be covered by 2 priests in the event of
History: In June of 2011, Bishop Murphy appointed Fr. Tom
illness or emergencies. The following schedule makes that posMoriarty the Pastor of Our Lady
sible. It is designed to offer the widest possible range of Mass
of Good Counsel Church in Inwood, in addition to already being times. Please understand that we had to consider the parish popPastor of Saint Joseph’s Church in Hewlett. The goal was to
ulations, attendance at each Mass, parking availability and
begin to share responsibilities between parishes and determine
Church space.
the best ways to serve the Catholic population of the Five
Towns with limited resources.
At the same time, Fr. Fasano returned from Canon Law studies
in Rome and was asked to live at Our Lady of Good Counsel
and assist while beginning his fulltime responsibilities as a Canon Lawyer on the Diocesan Tribunal (Court). Fr. Fernando Echeverri, who serves Holy Name of Mary Church in Valley Stream
was also asked to serve the needs of the people of Our Lady of
Good Counsel, especially our Spanish speaking parishioners.
After many years of dedicated service as Pastor of Saint Joachim’s Church in Cedarhurst, Msgr. Paul Rahilly will retire as
of October 1, 2015. At that time, Fr. Tom will become the Pastor of all three parishes in the Five Towns. Bishop Murphy has
also assigned Fr. James Drew to assist in the three parishes. We
welcome him warmly.
Approximately 30 years ago, there were between 12 and 15
priests serving the Five Towns. There is now one fulltime pastor, one fulltime assistant, one resident priest with another
fulltime job and one part-time priest for Hispanic Ministry.
Times have changed, neighborhoods have changed, and the
number of available priests has clearly changed.
Goals: In the spring of 2015, the Diocese asked Fr. Tom, Fr.
Fasano and Msgr. Rahilly to propose a strategy for the care of
the Five Towns. Our first goal was to determine if it would be
possible to keep Saint Joachim’s Church open. After a considerable amount of time and effort, we developed a plan that
would allow ALL THREE PARISHES TO REMAIN OPEN.
As you can imagine, this will require a great deal of cooperation, understanding and patience on everyone’s part. Even
though Saint Joachim’s is the smallest of the three parishes, we
believe that it is important to maintain a Catholic presence in
Cedarhurst and serve the faithful parishioners who still reside
there.
Obviously, adjustments to schedules as well as attitudes must be
made. We need to develop a better sense that there is one Catholic Family in the Five Towns with three Churches working
together. Each priest serving in the Five Towns is covering
multiple parishes, administrative and diocesan responsibilities.
Rumors and negativity are poisonous. Gossip is a sin against
God and our neighbor. Don’t give in to either. If you have
questions, please feel free to speak with Fr. Tom or Fr. Fasano.
Let us do our best to encourage and support each other, our
priests and deacons, and our Churches as we work together in
service to Jesus Christ and his Gospel.
WEEKDAY MASS SCHEDULES FOUND ON NEXT PAGE
Keep in mind:
Registered Families
Our Lady of Good Counsel = 834
Saint Joseph’s = 1965
Saint Joachim’s = 491
Average Weekend Mass attendance
Our Lady of Good Counsel = 750
Saint Joseph’s = 950
Saint Joachim’s = 300
Considerations:
Why do we have to make these changes? The total Mass schedule for all 3 churches must be able to be covered by 2 priests in
case of illness or emergencies.
Our Lady of Good Counsel has an elevator for easy access for
older parishioners. A 4:00 pm Saturday evening Mass will make
it easier for them, especially during winter months.
The Spanish speaking population at Our Lady of Good Counsel
has grown. This schedule will allow Spanish Masses to be added
if needed, especially during holidays.
All other priests who occasionally assist us have fulltime assignments elsewhere (i.e. hospital chaplains). They are kind enough
to offer us assistance when they can, but their availability is very
limited and can end at any moment.
The three churches of the Five Towns are each less than two
miles apart. We travel further than that for shopping or sports
activities. Please remember that your priests and deacons will be
covering multiple Masses in multiple locations each week.
“But, I want MY Mass at MY time in MY Church!” That way
of thinking is no longer possible. We will now have a choice of
9 different Mass times. That is more than most parishes twice
our total (combined) size.
As Christians, we must work together to build up the Body of
Christ on earth. That means praying for more priestly vocations,
making sacrifices, and loving one another as he loves us.

In our continued mission toward unity as the
Parishes of the Five Towns, Three Parishes,
ONE CATHOLIC COMMUNITY, we will
now share one weekly bulletin. This is another step taken to meet Bishop Murphy’s mandate to develop a unified Catholic Identity in
the Five Towns. An identity shared by all
three parishes, and the common leadership of
priests, deacons, and staffs now serving in those parishes.
If you would like to have something printed in the bulletin,
please email your announcement to
[email protected].
Please have your message to sent by
Tuesday at Noon for the following Sunday.
May God continue to bless us as we continue to bring
the Love of Christ to our beloved Five Towns.

As an example, if you are a member of Saint Joachim's Parish and attend Mass at Our Lady of Good
Counsel you can put your envelope from Saint Joachim's in the collection basket at Good Counsel.
We will make sure the offering goes to the Parish
indicated on the envelope.
If you don't use the official collection envelope, but
want your offering to go to a particular Parish,
please use a regular white envelope and write the
name of the Parish on the Front.
FAITH DIRECT is a wonderful program that you
can register for. FAITH DIRECT allows you to use
your credit or bank account to make your weekly
offering. This is already available in Saint Joseph's
and Good Counsel. It will be available in Saint Joachim's in the next few weeks. This is a very secure
way to make sure your offering goes to the parish of
your choice. Also, it helps with the free airline
miles if you use your credit card as well.
All cash, not in an envelope indicating parish designation, will stay in the parish it was collected in.
We hope this will clear up any confusion about all
offerings made to the parishes. All the Parishes depend on your continued financial support, in order to
continue the work of Christ here in the Five Towns.

O God of all the Nations, the One God who is and
was and always will be, who in your providence
willed that your Church be united to the suffering
of your Son, look with mercy on your servants in
Iraq who are persecuted for their faith in you.
Grant them perseverance and courage to be worthy imitators of Christ. Bring your wisdom upon
leaders of nations to work for peace among all
peoples. May your Spirit open conversion for
those who contradict your will that we live in harmony. And in all things may we be united in truth
and freedom to seek your will in our lives. We ask
this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Pope Francis’ visit to New York was a monumental moment in all our lives. Our holiness brought
great joy to Catholics during his visit as well as restoring our faith in the church. The Pope’s profound speeches, his humility amongst his flock, celebrating mass and spreading the good news to
overwhelming crowds in St. Patrick’s Cathedral and Madison Square Garden was truly inspirational.
A quote from Pope Francis’ trip is one we should try and apply to our lives. If every individual
could follow his advice, we may be able to achieve making the world a better place.
“We must restore hope to young people, help the old, be open to the future, spread love. Be poor
among the poor. We need to include the excluded and preach peace.”
Pope Francis, 2015.
Those who walk with simplicity proclaim the steadfast love of our God. In trust, we pray, Lord, give us
genuine and transparent hearts.
Make us open and trusting like children, Lord, heal our “hardness of heart.
Teach us to let go of the baggage that has developed in our lives, Lord, help us to live with confidence
in your forgiveness.
Give us the joy and openness of a child, Lord, may we find you in our service to those who are poor.
Amen
La visita de el Papa Francisco a Nueva York fue un monumental momento para todos.Nuestra Santidad
trajo alegria a todos los Catolicos durante su visita asi tambien restauracion de Fe a nuestra Iglesia.
Los profundos discursos,su humildad entre su rebano,celebrando la Misa y difundiendo la buena nueva
entre la multitud de la Catedral de St. Patricio y El Madison Square Garden fue verdaderamente inspirador.
Una cita del Papa Francisco en este viaje que tendriamos que aplicar a nuestras vidas.Si cada individuo
seguiria su consejo podriamos lograr que este mundo sea mucho mejor.
“Nosotros tenemos que restaurar la esperanza de nuestros jovenes,ayudar al anciano,abrirnos al futuro,brindar amor.Ser pobre entre los pobres.Tenemos que incluir los excluidos y predicar la paz.” Papa
Francisco, 2015.
Todo el que camina con simplicidad proclama la firmeza del amor de Dios,oremos,Senor danos un
corazon firme y transparente.
Permitenos abrirnos y confiar como ninos, Senor,cura la dureza de nuestros corazones.
Ensenanos a despojarnos de los pesados yugos que acumulamos en nuestra vida,Senor,ayudanos a vivir
confiando en tu perdon.
Danos la alegria y la franqueza de un nino,Senor que te encontremos en cada necesitado al cual servimos.

Eucharistic Adoration Program
Please Help Us by Joining Us!
Have you ever considered volunteering as
part of the Eucharistic Adoration program?
Located at St. Joseph’s, the program allows
for us all to spend some time in the presence of Jesus
Christ in the Blessed Sacrament. No special prayers or
readings required. It’s just your opportunity to sit, read and
pray in silence. A wonderful opportunity to find moments
of peace with God in the midst of our busy life.. The
program runs each week (Wednesday 9am - Thursday
9am), and is located in the Adoration Chapel at St Joseph’s
– 1346 Broadway in Hewlett . We need regular volunteers
who can offer an hour each week to remain with the
Blessed Sacrament. Maybe consider taking an hour as a
family, so that if one person can’t make it,
others will be available to cover.
While we’re need volunteers for all the hours, we
especially need volunteers for the following:
Wednesday 12pm, 3pm, 10pm, 11pm
Thursday
4am
Interested? Like more information?
Please contact Deacon Dan Otton at 516-791-9322.

“Now, faced as we are
with global environmental deterioration,
I wish to address every living person on this planet.
A great cultural, spiritual and educational challenge
stands before us, and it will demand
that we set out on the long path of renewal.”
Laudato Si’ - June 2015
These words from Pope Francis urgently call our attention to the
suffering of Mother Earth and creation itself. Many have felt
overwhelmed by the enormity of the problem. But Francis
reminds us: “Yet all is not lost. Human beings, while capable of the
worst, are also capable of rising above themselves, choosing what is
good, and making a new start…”
If his words strike a chord of hope, if your heart and soul are stirred
to “care for our common home”, if you are ready to be a FIRST
RESPONDER to Pope Francis’ summons, to stand with him, to
accept his challenge, to start the journey in your own parish, please
send your contact information to
[email protected] so we can set
out on the path of renewal together.

TODAY’S READINGS - LECTURAS DE HOY
TOWARD HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS
From the beginning of creation, God intended for
people to live together in relationship with one another.
Much of scripture shows us how to do this as it illustrates
and clarifies God’s plans. The readings this
weekend guide us in the value and care of our
relationships. Specifically, the Gospel focuses
on the circumstances of failed relationships.
Unlike the Pharisees, we would do well not to
focus on the laws that pertain to failed relationships, but concentrate instead on what God
really intended for us. Healthy bonds require a
lot of our time and energy. They certainly require trust and honesty. Jesus demonstrated a
deep commitment to his friends and to us. As
our brother, he gave his very life for us. Children work
hard at friendships. They trust, forgive, and love without
conditions. The final words of today’s Gospel invite us to
welcome Jesus and the people of our relationships with
the fresh enthusiasm of a child.

CAMINO A RELACIONES SALUDABLES
Desde comienzos de la creación, Dios tenía planeado que
los seres humanos vivieran unidos llevándose bien unos con
otros. Gran parte de la Sagrada Escritura nos muestra cómo
hacerlo, a la vez que explica y clarifica el plan de Dios. Las
lecturas este fin de semana ofrecen una guía para
valorar y cuidar de nuestras relaciones humanas.
Específicamente, el Evangelio se enfoca en las
circunstancias de una relación que ha fallado. A
diferencia de los fariseos, nos conviene no tanto
enfatizar las leyes que se aplican a relaciones que
fallan, sino más bien, dar prioridad a lo que en
realidad Dios deseaba para nosotros. Los vínculos
saludables requieren de nosotros mucho tiempo y
dedicación. Ciertamente exigen confianza y honestidad. Jesús demostró un profundo compromiso con sus amigos y para con nosotros. Como un hermano,
entregó hasta su vida por nosotros. Los niños se ocupan mucho de sus amistades. Ellos confían, perdonan, aman sin condiciones. Las palabras finales del Evangelio de hoy nos invitan
a recibir a Jesús y a aquellos con quienes nos relacionamos,
con el entusiasmo y la frescura de un niño.

The old world of what we call canonical penance, or the
extraordinary one time public repentance of sinners, began
to collapse with the conversion of Constantine in the early
fourth century. It tottered for a hundred years or so and then
virtually disappeared. It served an isolated and persecuted
church well, but once people began seeking
baptism for economic and political privilege, a
real pastoral crisis exploded. There were more
lukewarm Christians afoot, and some
“barbarians” rampaging through the ruins accepted baptism just because their leaders did.
As the old structures collapsed, people who
still sought some sort of public conversion
scampered off to the desert to live in monastic
isolation. Penance disappeared from the parish
scene, and the old bench where hungry penitents used to beg
for prayers was empty. Some bishops faced the crisis by
inventing alternate means of discipline, all more private
than public. A person might be asked to refrain from receiving Communion for a time, or even to accept some sort of
corporal punishment (the pedigree of the stocks and scarlet
letters of colonial America). This had the effect of separating the sinner from the prayerful intercession of the gathered church, and made an already bad situation worse. Before long, the pastoral system of penance was in a shambles,
and sadly irrelevant to ordinary Christians.
—Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
El matrimonio es una vocación y estilo de vida sagrado,
instituido por Dios, mismo que no debe tomarse a la ligera.
Así como no se concede el sacramento del orden a un varón
que no se ha preparado debidamente, una persona que no se
ha preparado debidamente, no debe ser admitida al sacramento del matrimonio. Así como a las religiosas y los religiosos no profesan una consagración de vida sin antes haberse asegurado de su
motivación, la pareja comprometida debe ver y
evaluar muy bien lo que está haciendo y asegurarse de que no haya algún impedimento para el
matrimonio. Han de reconocer concientemente
cuál es la motivación por la cual quieren unir su
vida.
Para que un matrimonio sea válido, según las leyes de
la Iglesia, los contrayentes deben tener una edad apropiada,
saber lo que hacen y que no haya impedimento alguno, por
ejemplo, la presión de la familia, embarazo prematuro o el
deseo de salir de la casa familiar. Los dos deben consentir
una vida de esposos por el resto de su vida y ser siempre
fieles el uno al otro. Este compromiso debe hacerse públicamente, ante un miembro del clero y dos testigos. Cumplidos
todos estos requisitos, los dos se hacen una sola carne, como dice Jesús.
