Act of Consecration to St. Joseph

O dearest St. Joseph, I consecrate myself to your honor and give myself to you, that you may always be my father, my protector and my guide in the way of salvation. Obtain for me a greater purity of heart and fervent love of the interior life. After your example may I do all my actions for the greater glory of God, in union with the Divine Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. O Blessed St. Joseph, pray for me, that I may share in the peace and joy of your holy death. Amen.

. In the Company of Francis "Jesus taught us that he who commands must become like one who serves. Or, if one wants to be first, he must be the servant of all. And this desire for power is not the way to becoming a servant of the Lord, in fact: it is an obstacle, one of these obstacles we prayed to the Lord to remove from us. The Lord has told us that no servant can have two masters. One either serves God or serves money. Play right and left, play God and even play in the world, no? And this is an obstacle. Not serving God first, the thirst for power and money, are all obstacles to true peace, causing us to live in that tension of worldly vanities. And when we serve the Lord in freedom, we feel that deeper peace yet, right? The voice of the Lord: ‘Oh, come, come, come, good and faithful servant.’ And so, give us this serenity, this peace to be able to serve as a free child in the end, with so much love.”-- Pope Francis FROM YOUR PASTOR Are YOU on the path to be a ?

The Archdiocese of Denver, and even more specifically Saint Elizabeth of Hungary Church in Denver, is blessed to have a nexus with the two Servants of God for the Archdiocese of Denver: Father Leo Heinrichs OFM, Martyred in 1908, and Julia Greeley, Called Home in 1918. Father Leo was the Superior of the Fran- ciscan Community killed by an Anarchist while distributing Holy Communion one Sunday Morning. Julia was a Member of the Third Order of Saint Francis at Saint Elizabeth Church and was buried in the Francis- can habit.

Both are Servants of God based on their lives of heroic virtues -- the Theological Virtues of Faith, Hope and Charity, and the Cardinal Virtues of Prudence, Justice, Temperance and Fortitude.

But their common bond is their love for the poor.

Father Leo's kindness led him to be a great friend of the poor of Denver. They knew they would never be turned away from the door of Saint Elizabeth without receiving something from the Pastor's own hand. The Rocky Mountain News stated that, "No word has been mentioned in the newspapers of Father Leo's chari- ty, and no man resented publicity more. But the poor of the city, regardless of their religious beliefs, will mourn him as a benefactor. People living in the vicinity of the church tell the story of the line of hungry men, women and children at the friary gate every morning, where they were received by Father Leo and given food and clothing."

"Whenever Father Leo heard of a sick person in destitute circumstances he went in person. How many people received succor from him will never be known because he never spoke of his charitable deeds. It is only through physicians who were called at his expense and the sick and poor themselves that this face of the priest's character can be learned."

Julia Greeley, a former slave, a convert, a Black Woman who could neither read nor write nor count, be- came Denver’s Angel of Charity. At the time of her death, Matthew Smith recounted that, "Her charity was so great that only God knows its extent. She was constantly visiting the poor and giving them assistance from her own slender means. When she found their needs so great that she could not help them with her own goods, she begged for them. Her charity was as delicate as it was great. She realized that white people, no matter how poor, might feel a little sensitive receiving assistance from an old colored woman, so she went at night to their homes to deliver the goods she had begged, in order to keep the neighbors from seen her. She had even been seen going through the streets at night with a mattress on her back. Many and many a times she was seen carrying coal and groceries. Yet she was so poor herself that the city charity depart- ment had been furnishing her with fuel and groceries."

"On one occasion, a priest of the Sacred Heart Parish found her pushing a baby carriage along at night. She had found a poor family that needed it. So, she'd gone out and begged for it. On another occasion one of the Jesuits met her carrying a broken doll. In answer to his questions, she told him that she was taking it home to fix it up and give it to some child. Julia's rule seemingly was that it was better to give than to be too care- ful and deny assistance to someone who needed it."

LET US PRAY for these HEROIC VIRTUES in our own lives!

Lord Jesus, who didst grant to the faithful son of Saint Francis, Father Leo, the privilege of giving his life while distributing Thy Holy Eucha- rist; grant us also, by his merits and intercession, with a view to obtain his , the graces we now earnestly ask of Thee; (here make your request). May we imitate his spirit of penance and humility, and by making fervent reparation to Thy Divine Presence among us, remain ever united with Thee in the Most Blessed Sacrament. Amen.

Heavenly Father, your servant Julia Greeley dedicated her life to honoring the Sacred Heart of your Son and to the humble service of the poor. Grant to me a generous heart like your Son's, and if it be in accordance with your holy will, please grant this favor I now ask through Julia's intercession, (insert intention). I pray this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Third Sunday of Easter The Lebanese-American writer Kahlil Gibran had it right, I think, when he spoke of grief. He described death as an incense bead which doesn’t break open until a loved one’s death. Then its perfume fills the room. “Death is the revealer of life,” he said. It’s only at death that the fullness of someone’s life breaks open. All of a sudden we see them more clearly, and with so much more love (and longing) than we even did in life. I suspect that happened for the disciples of Jesus. After his horrible death, the fullness of his life, and the meaning of his death, broke open. Now they had the rest of their lives to regret not loving him better, not staying and praying with him in the Garden, not fleeing from the Cross but, instead, staying and dying with him. Maybe that’s what they were all saying, through their heartbreak and tears, that Easter evening. They may have been remembering, over and over, the precious moments they shared with him in his life, and accusing themselves of the grossest ignorance in not under- standing who he was, and to what he had called them. And then. Two disciples from Emmaus came running into that Upper Room with the most astonishing news. He’s alive! And we rec- ognized him in the Breaking of the Bread! And no sooner had they announced this glorious news than Jesus Himself stood among them. And suddenly, nothing was ever the same again. Are you longing for a deceased loved one? Imagine them just entering into your room right now. Oh, what endless joy! They are alive. Trust this vision. Trust Jesus. They are alive. How do you experience the presence of your deceased loved ones? Kathy McGovern©2020 www.thestoryandyou.com
