Ordo Liturgia for Use with Journeying with the Saints Old Catholic Apostolic Church Ordo Liturgia For use with Journeying with the Saints This liturgy is intended for those Old Catholic Apostolic Church clergy who wish to use a liturgical calendar to order their worship. The accompanying book ‘Journeying with the Saints’ by Fr. Laurence Martin has information about the saints to enable meaningful prayers and intentions to be incorporated into the church year. Flexibility is encouraged particularly around the flexible feasts especially Easter and the days listed are going to vary from year to year. This is not a complete list of saints or blessed servants of Our Lord and there are many worthy of inclusion in the worship year. Clergy are encouraged to adapt this list to include others, if in prayer they are led to do so, or should members of a congregation request it. Similarly, the liturgy is not a rigid prescription of the ordering of worship, but rather a guide and starting point with the intention of covering a wide range of theology and history of the One Holy, Catholic and Apostolic church, with Christ as its head.

    CChurchhurch ofof St.St. PatrickPatrick 400 Main Street Huntington, New York 11743 (631)-385-3311 www.stpatrickchurchhunt.org FROM OUR PASTOR, MSGR. STEVEN CAMP Dear Parishioners, Today is the Fourth Sunday of Lent, traditionally known as Laetare Sunday. Laetare (“Rejoice”), sets a tone of joyful anticipation of the Easter mystery, which is only weeks away. This is why the Priest wears rose-colored vestments. The name comes from Entrance Antiphon for this Mass: “ Rejoice, Jerusalem, and all you who love her”. This Fourth Sunday of Lent marks a joyful relief amidst the seriousness and somberness of the many weeks of preparation for Easter. Even in Lent we rejoice, because we know God loves us and will provide for our needs. In the first reading today, from the Book of Chronicles, God pardons those who have been unfaithful. In today’s Gospel as well in the second reading, we are reminded that the Father has sent the Son because He has so loved us that He wants us to be able to return to Him. We rejoice in the forgiveness that the Lord offers for each of us. With this Sunday being the fourth Sunday of Lent, we come close to Holy Week. Holy Week is one of the most important weeks of the year for the Church. As we continue to prepare to celebrate the Lord’s entrance into Jerusalem, Passion & Death, and His Glorious Resurrection on Easter Sunday, please make note of the schedule of all of the Holy Week liturgies that will take place here in our Parish.

This liturgical calendar, together with these introductory notes, has been compiled in accordance with the Motu Proprio Rubricarum Instructum issued by Pope B John XXIII on 25th July 1960, the Roman Breviary of 1961 and the Roman Missal of 1962. For the universal calendar that to be found at the beginning of the Roman Breviary and Missal has been used. For the diocesan calendars no such straightforward procedure is possible. The decree of the Sacred Congregation of Rites of 26th July 1960 at paragraph (6) required all diocesan calendars to conform with the new rubrics and be approved by that Congregation. The diocesan calendars in use on 1st January 1961 (the date set for the new rubrics to come into force) were substantially those previously in use but with varying adjustments and presumably as yet to re-approved. Indeed those calendars in use immediately prior to that date were by no means identical to those previously approved by the Congregation, since there had been various changes to the rubrics made by Pope Pius XII. Hence it is not a simple matter to ascertain in complete and exact detail the classifications and dates of all diocesan feasts as they were, or should have been, observed at 1st January 1961.

The Seasons of the Soul by Fred Schaeffer, OFS In Florida we haven’t got four seasons, there is great weather with lower humidity in the winter months (November to April/May) and in summer we are hazy, hot and humid, occasionally with tropi- cal storms and hurricanes. “Up north,” they have four seasons, and this Reflection comments on all four seasons. I've spent about 9 years total in religious life, the longest for 5 years in Massachusetts and Florida. My first religious life experience (1.5 years) was with the Capuchins but that’s ancient history (early 1960). I was close to Jesus, but I slacked again until 1984-5 when I said Enough! Then I attempted to live a holy life away from a friary or monastery.

  • September 2020 Dispatch
    September 2020 Dispatch Brother Knights, This serves as my second monthly dispatch to the council as Grand Knight… praise God for continuity and inspiration! It’s hard to believe that September is already here (Tempus Fugit, Memento Mori), but I pray that God has been present in your lives and that you are able to converse with the LORD daily and attend Mass in person or virtually as often as possible (see Good of the Order below). If you take a look at the summary of upcoming events below, you will see that we have another busy month. I would especially like to point your attention to the Silver Rose event. This has become a very important endeavor to me and I would really appreciate a good showing from brother Knights. Additionally, our monthly general meeting, which will be September 9 after 5:30 Mass, will be no ordinary meeting. There are two neat things happening, so perhaps you won’t want to miss it. I will be honest that I’m attempting to build up enough interest that we get to see a good number of new faces, which is always exciting. Fun fact: St. Mother Teresa of Calcutta, whose feast day is September 5, had an affinity for the Knights of Columbus. Although she was typically known to eschew worldly honors for her work, she did accept an award from the Knights of Columbus stating, “I accepted to come, and to accept out of sheer gratitude, for they (the Knights of Columbus) have done so much for our congregation and for our poor.” If I don’t happen to see you at any point this month, know that I will be praying for you and your family, asking the LORD to bless each of you abundantly! Happy birthday to Past Grand Knight Tim Mohatt and Terrence Rush today! Also, St.

  • Faith-Filled Australian Lives Celebrated During Ad Limina Visit
    AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC BISHOPS CONFERENCE Faith-filled Australian lives celebrated during Ad Limina visit Media Release June 27, 2019 Australian bishops are hopeful that a number of Australians could follow in the footsteps of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop and enter the Church’s Communion of Saints. As part of their Ad Limina Apostolorum pilgrimage, which commenced on Monday, bishops met Wednesday with officials from the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, including its prefect, Cardinal Giovanni Becciu. Progress on the journey towards beatification of two prominent Australians – Eileen O’Connor and Dr Sr Mary Glowrey – was high on the meeting’s agenda. Sydney Auxiliary Bishop Anthony Randazzo, who has been involved with the cause for canonisation for Eileen O’Connor, said he was encouraged by what he heard from the officials of the Holy See. “While we in Australia already understand the holy life that Eileen led, including co-founding Our Lady’s Nurses for the Poor, and we would like things to proceed quickly, the congregation explained that the process is complex – and rightly so,” Bishop Randazzo said. The bishops also discussed other holy people who might one day progress down the path to sainthood, including famed 19th-century humanitarian Caroline Chisholm, St Vincent de Paul pioneer Charles O’Neill, Constance Gladman, a religious sister who was killed while teaching in Papua New Guinea, and Fr Joseph Canali, known as “the Apostle of Brisbane”. Bishop Bosco Puthur, who led the delegation to the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, said as well as discussing people of the past who lived saintly lives, the conversation also explored how people today can pursue holiness.
