Canon Benoît Jayr (414) 226 5490 (Priory), (414) 226 5534 (fax) , (414)-335-3124 (Emergencies) Oblate Abbé George Baird Assisting Priest Canon Matthew Weaver Secretary Mrs. Jo Ann Neumann Mr. Christopher Berry ~ Director of Sacred Music & Organist Mr. Fabian Qamar ~ Associate Director of Music To contact the St. Stanislaus office, please send e-mails to [email protected] Website: institute-christ-king.org/milwaukee- home/ FROM THE RECTOR’S DESK Dear Faithful, “Full of Grace”: these words include everything that is to say the Holy Trinity’s presence within a young lady whose name is Mary. A presence that is prevented from all sin, known as the Immacu- late Conception. Mary was preserved from Original Sin by the foreseen merits of Jesus, her Son and her Redeemer. She is the first redeemed, created by God as a fitting dwelling place for His Son. The Church teaches us that God endowed Mary’s soul with sanctifying grace from the first moment of her conception. She has never been, not even for a moment, under the power of sin. Therefore she is called “Immaculate” that is having no stain of sin in her soul. Children tend to imitate their par- ents. Our Lady is our Mother. Let us imitate her sinlessness, as at the wedding feast of Cana she tells us: “Do whatever Jesus tells you.” Have a blessed week, Canon Benoît Jayr Rector INSTITUTE OF CHRIST THE KING SOVEREIGN PRIEST ST STANISLAUS BISHOP & MARTYR PARISH AǏǏǐǖǏDŽdžǎdžǏǕǔ ǂǏDž UǑDŽǐǎNJǏLj EǗdžǏǕǔ WELCOME TO ST.

  • Winchmore Hill United Reformed Church March, 2021
    Winchmore Hill United Reformed Church March, 2021 BUILD ON A STRONG FOUNDATION The theme for the World Day of Prayer being held on 5 March this year is “Build on a Strong Foundation”. The service this year has been put together by women from Vanuatu, a cluster of islands stretching for about 400 miles in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. (If you can find it on the globe you’ll be doing better than us!) Because of the covid situation in the UK, World Day of Prayer will be putting the service on their YouTube channel or elsewhere (for details have a look at their website www.wwdp.org.uk where service details will be posted). Can we encourage you, if you are able to, to try and join in with this day as it always, to us, seems to provide a link with other Christians all across the world. The words of the first song in the service on that day this year we find to be particularly appropriate, even though they were written with Vanuatu in mind:- It is time to get together As a nation and family Let’s forget our differences And let us work in unity What a joy it would be to see all the nations of the world working together for unity both as individual countries, but also with their neighbouring countries as well. But, Building a strong foundation is also something that we need to be looking to do as a church together. Building a strong foundation involves more than physical buildings, developing resources.

William Henry Havergal (1793-1870), alt. A Bidding Prayer Beloved in Christ, in this season of Advent, let it be our care and delight to prepare ourselves to hear again the message of the Angels, and in heart and mind to go even unto Bethlehem, to see the Babe lying in a manger. Let us read and mark in Holy Scripture the tale of the loving purposes of God from the first days of our disobedience unto the glorious Redemption brought us by his holy Child; and let us look forward to the yearly remembrance of his birth with hymns and songs of praise. 2 But first, let us pray for the needs of the whole world; for peace and goodwill over all the earth; for the mission and unity of the Church, for which he died, and especially in this country and within this city. And because this of all things would rejoice his heart, let us at this time remember in his name the poor and the helpless; the hungry and the oppressed; the sick and those who mourn; the lonely and the unloved; the aged and the little children; and all those who know not the Lord Jesus, or who love him not, or who by sin have grieved his heart of love.
