Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Because of early bulletin deadlines, I usually write my pastor’s notes on Tuesday mornings for the following weekend bulletin. So, as I write these “pastor’s notes,” last night was the first night of the return of the Saint Mary Great Fair. It was an amazing night! Thousands of people with smiling faces. The joy and excitement of the children in the “Kiddie Zone” was priceless to see. A summer night filled with rides, games, food, music, fun and fellowship. I so look forward to the rest of the week. The Saint Mary Great Fair could not happen without the work of the fair committee and hundreds of volunteers. I want to thank all the volunteers for your love and service to Saint Mary’s, but I also want to thank you for the joy and excitement each one of your brought to the Fair. Your smiles and laughter speak volumes to your heart of service. I especially want to thank and honor Hank Pekarsky, the chairman of the Saint Mary Great Fair. I am convinced that Hank never sleeps. Last week, we didn’t even open the Saint Mary Great Fair and he is already talking to me about the Fall Country Fair in September. He is an amazing servant to the people of Saint Mary’s. Hank shared with me that each morning he and his wife Mimi pray to the Holy Spirit on how to serve our parish. The Holy Spirit certainly is directing and blessing Hank and Mimi, and us through them! As you know, Hank also serves as our parish business manager. He is a former school principal, vice chair of the Middle States Accreditation Committee, a state certified Business Administrator, accountant, and former Mayor of Hazlet, to name a few of his credentials. Hank works on a average of 60-70 hours a week for our parish and he does not take a salary, he is a volunteer! There are no words that can express our thanks to Hank (and Mimi!) for all their dedication and service to Saint Mary’s. May God continue to bless them abundantly! This past week all the Bishops of the United States met and discussed a proposal for a “Eucharistic Revival” that would begin in 2022. The proposal is to address the concern that 31% of Catholics believe in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. Because of our almost 25 years of Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration at Saint Mary’s, I am convinced that we are much higher than the 31%, however, I am excited for this “Eucharistic Revival.” In a real way, since we moved the Adoration over to Saint Mary Chapel, we have been experiencing a “Eucharistic Revival” at Saint Mary’s. Not only do we have almost 400 committed adorers, but since the Chapel re-opened on Ash Wednesday we have had over 2000 visitors to our Eucharistic Lord…. that is “Eucharistic Revival!” Thank you Jesus! Have a blessed week! In Jesus and Mary, Father Jeff Kegley Pastor Pope Francis: 'to have faith is to live our lives with joy' (Vatican Radio) Pope Francis on Tuesday encouraged Christians to get on with things, living life with joy. Speaking during the homily during Mass at the Casa Santa Marta, he urged them to avoid complaining and not to let themselves be paralyzed by the ugly sin of sloth. The Gospel story at the heart of Pope Francis’ reflection tells of a man who had been ill for thirty- eight years. He was lying at the side of a pool called Bethesda with a large number of ill, blind, lame and crippled who believed that when an angel came down and stirred up the waters the first to bathe in the pool would be healed. When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been ill for a long time, he said to him: “Do you want to be well?” “It’s what Jesus repeatedly says to us as well” the Pope said: “do you want to be well? Do you want to be happy? Do you want to improve your life? Do you want to be filled with the Holy Spirit?” When Jesus, the Pope pointed out, asked that strange man if he wanted to be well, instead of saying “yes” he complained there was on one to put him in the pool while the water is stirred up and that someone else always got there before him. His answer, Francis said, was a complaint, he was implying that life had been unjust with him. “This man, the Pope noted, was like the tree planted along the bank of the rivers, mentioned in the first Reading, but it had arid roots, roots that did not reach the water, could not take nourishment from the water”. The Pope said this is clear from his attitude of always complaining and trying to blame the other. “This is an ugly sin: the sin of sloth” he said. Pope Francis said this man’s disease was not so much his paralysis but sloth, which is worse than having a lukewarm heart. It causes one to live without the desire to move forward, to do something in life, it causes one to lose the memory of joy, he explained, saying the man had lost all of this. Jesus, the Pope continued, did not rebuke him but said: “Take up your mat, and walk”. The man was healed but since it was a Sabbath, the doctors of the law said it was not lawful to carry a mat on that day and they asked him who was the man who told him to do so. The sick man, the Pope noted, had not even thanked Jesus or asked for his name: “he rose and walked with that slothful attitude “living his life because oxygen is free”, always looking to others “who are happier” and forgetting joy. "Sloth, he said, is a sin that paralyzes us, stops us from walking”. Even today, the Pope said, the Lord looks to each of us sinners - we are all sinners - and says “Rise”. The Lord tells each of us, Pope Francis concluded, to take hold of our life, be it beautiful or difficult and move on: “Do not be afraid, go ahead carrying your mat” and remember to come to the waters and quench your thirst with joy and ask the Lord to help you get up and know the joy of salvation.

  • In Church on Bigfeasts. I Think
    297 think it would be advisable to have them in church on big feasts. I think that, by making the establishment right after the mission that the Bishop ofBeauvais wants to have given there, it will be easy to get all that can be desiredfor the good of the confraternity. I have not done anything at all about suggesting this collection. Addressed: Monsieur Vincent 207. - TO CLEMENT DE BONZI, BISHOP OF BEZIERS [September or October 1635] 1 Your Excellency, I learned from M. Cassan, the brother of a priest from your town of Beziers, that you wanted to know three things about us. Now, since I was unable to have the honor of answering you at that time because I was leaving for the country, I decided to do so now. I shall tell you, first of all, Your Excellency, that we are entirely under the authority of the bishops to go to any place in their diocese they wish to send us to preach, catechize, and hear the general confessions of the poor; ten to fifteen days before ordina- tion, to teach all about mental prayer, practical and necessary theology, and the ceremonies of the Church to those about to be ordained; and to receive the latter into our house, after they are priests, for the purpose of renewing the fervor OurLord has given them at ordination. In a word, we are like the servants of the centurion in the Gospel2 with regard to the bishops, insofar as when they say to us: go, we are obliged to go; if they say: come, we are obliged to come; do that, and we are obliged to do it.

This was scrapped, and Ian Ogilvy took over the halo for 24 episodes as Simon Templar. This amount is subject to change until you make payment. He also somewhat deplored the tendency for the Saint to be seen primarily as a detective, and this was even stated in some of the later stories, e. Reading about Charteris' "amiable rascal" is infinitely easier and much more relaxing than writing more stories about my own fictitious rascal, Misfit Lil whom I like to think shares a trait or two with Mr Simon Templar!

So sang an Irish poet (Ó Baoighill and Ó Baoill, 17-18, my translation) and such, indeed, is the reputation our Saint enjoys in the tradition of Ireland’s most northerly county, Donegal, ‘Generous Columba’, is how another song (Goan, 19) describes him, for gifts and bounty were ever a part of his image there. It was believed, moreover, that this was a gift the Saint had especially asked God for: ‘You have given me sufficient but you didn’t give me a heart to spend it.’ ‘So long as the sun is in the sky,’ the Saviour replied, ‘the generous will never go to hell.’ (Watson, 99; my translation).

  • A Propòsit Dels Jocs Florals De Bellpuig (1953)
    URTX A PROPÒSIT DELS JOCS FLORALS DE BELLPUIG (1953) Joan Cornudella Olivart A PROPÒSIT DELS JOCS FLORALS DE BELLPUIG (1953) Abstract La cultura catalana, después de la guerra civil, condenada a ser un fenómeno minoritario, entró en una etapa de crisis profunda durante la cual sobrevivió en las catacumbas o en el ostracismo del exilio. Una de las primeras ma - nifestaciones culturales de resistencia fue la continuidad de los Juegos Florales de Barcelona. A partir de 1948 la lengua catalana empezó a ser admitida en estos concursos que proliferaban en barrios, fiestas locales y pueblos. Este espíritu reivindicativo de la lengua catalana se repetiría en muchas poblaciones que apostaban por este cer - tamen poético como instrumento de supervivencia. Muchas entidades, sin afán de lucro, difundían estos concursos populares, a menudo solamente en círculos reducidos. Y en más de una ocasión, alguna efeméride religiosa invitaba a convocar unos Juegos Florales que formasen parte de un programa de elogio a los valores cristianos. Mientras que la Flor Natural restringía el ámbito amoroso a ensalzar la imagen del santo Cristo, el premio de la Englantina exigía que los versos no se desviaran de la ideología franquista. En definitiva, el motivo principal de los Juegos Flo - rales de Bellpuig, celebrados el año 1953, sería el regreso del santo Cristo de Bormio. Catalan culture, after the civil war, condemned to being a minority phenomenon, entered a deep crisis during which it survived in the catacombs or the ostracism of exile. One of the first cultural manifestations of resistance was the con - tinuity of the Floral Games in Barcelona.

  • Lexical Pragmatics; a Corpus-Analytic Investigation 'Saint' Hypothesis We
    Lexical Pragmatics; A Corpus-analytic investigation ‘Saint’ Hypothesis We expect a) to find ‘saint’ at various points of the continuum between literal and loose uses and b) to find some variation in the properties of sainthood that will come to the focus in each case (narrowing) General types of variation expected: Variation in the property(/ies) of sainthood which become relevant in each case Variation in the degree of possessing these properties Chosen word set ‘Saint’ Corpus used The Bank of English Method Concordance lines independently of collocation Comments 1166 lines in the whole corpus 5 In the first 500 occurrences of saint (coming from all sub-corpora), the term is used most frequently literally to refer to real saints. There are also many irrelevant cases such as Saint Saens, Yve Saint Laurent, Top Saint etc => from a total of 500 cases I looked at only the instances I have included in the tables are relevant to our search. 5 It is easy to think how ‘saint’ can be used literally (referring to an actual saint), 1 metaphorically (as a metaphorical ad hoc concept attributed to someone who is not an actual saint), hyperbolically (when a property of the target -patience, compassion etc- is exaggerated; in which case it seems that metaphorical use is presupposed) and ironically. Our sample involves examples of all these pragmatic processes sometimes occurring independently and sometimes combined. It is a bit harder to use ‘saint’ as an approximation. I guess an approximation would be such an over-human degree of, say, patience, compassion etc that it is only just removed from that of true sainthood: e.g.
