That is how many American Military deaths have occurred since last Memorial Day. Repre- senting a quilt of America, the 35 came from all over: Dashan Briggs is from Jefferson Station, New York; Mark Weber is from Colorado Springs,; William Posch hails from Indialantic, Florida; Jeremiah Johnson was from Springboro, Ohio and Byron Black called Puyallup, Washington home, while Dustin Wright was a native of Lyons, Georgia with Allen Stigler Jr., only 22, being from Arlington, Texas...and the list goes on. Compared to the hot and active years immediately following our intervention in Afghanistan and Iraq when the yearly totals were thousands of American KIAs, 35 may not seem like many...but of course, to their families and friends, they were everything. This year’s 35 brings to 6920 the number of Americans killed since 2001. Memorial Day frequently hyped as the ‘unofficial start of Summer’, it is easy to focus primarily on barbecues, picnics and family gatherings to kick-off the Summer...but for 35 American families, hot dogs and hamburgers may fill their bellies but they won’t come close to satisfying the emptiness that now haunts their hearts. Some might be so cavalier as to shrug and say they did not know any of these 35 personally....but they each wore a uniform that came with an oath to serve US...and they died doing that. Seems like the least we can do is acknowledge and honor their lives, mourn their deaths and ABSOLUTELY support and pray for their families. As we have done for the past six years, the names of all 35 are on slips of paper up in front near the poster in the Sanctuary. I encourage you to come and take one of the names, adopt that person...and their family...for the weekend (or longer if you wish.) If you desire to know more about these individuals you can go to HONOR THE FALLEN, where the full list of military lives sacrificed over the years is maintained. I encourage you to remember the name of YOUR American when you say grace before your holiday meals. If you are particularly courageous you may wish to write their families a note of support and prayer...you don’t have to say much, just let them know that you are remembering them on this Memorial Day and they do not mourn alone. If you can’t locate their precise address, send your note in a separate envelope and letter to the Chief of Police in whatever town the deceased was from...the police will know who these people are and will probably hand deliver your letter. We cannot restore these 35 to life but we can offer solace and solidarity with their families...one American to another. With our annual Diocese of Orange Priest Retreat occurring next week, some people have asked what actually goes on during the week of retreat. Knowing of my involvement with the Scheduling, Hospitality, on-site details and Environment set-up, they wonder how it all meshes together. The Retreat is a MANDATED event for us Diocesan clergy and anyone wanting to be excused has to personally receive permission from Bishop Kevin, thus there are, give or take a few, 168 priests and bishops who will participate for the week. For some of these guys, this is the only retreat and/or vacation away from their parishes they will be able to squeeze into their hectic schedules, so my effort is to provide them with the BEST experience possible. We have a Retreat Director, this year, Bishop Larry Silva of Hawaii, who presents two or three presentations each day. Each day has morning, eve- ning prayer along with Mass and opportunities for anointing and Reconciliation and plenty of BLANK time for the fellows to interact with each other or catch up on their sleep. This year we are back at The Westin in Rancho Mirage, with our rooms costing only $114 a night, which is why, with the exception of next year being back at the Hyatt Regency, we are contracted with the Westin through 2024. The pools, golf courses and ample grounds allow the fellows opportunities to exercise or escape for R&R without having to go far. The job for me and my team is to transform our meeting rooms into whatever we need them to be...a big blank convention room be- comes our Worship Space, complete with Holy Water Font, Altar, suspended crucifix, Ambo, Presider Chair and side altars of remembrance for our deceased loved ones (especially deceased priests) and another in support of our Seminarians. There are other large convention rooms given over to our daily gatherings/meetings and then our Dining Room for Dinner, a different one for lunch and the outdoor Patio area for our alfresco breakfasts. The proper and beautiful set-up of these spaces is HIGHLY important, but so is the Hospitality Time each day between Mass and dinner. Back in the 80’s when I was a new priest, the hospitality consisted of lots of cocktails along with bags of potato chips and cans of nuts...still in the bags and still in the cans! I have taken it as my sacred duty to treat all our priests with greater dignity than bags of chips and cans of nuts...thus, while we still have plenty of assorted beverages of varying intensity, I take it as a point of pride to personally prep all the foods we offer as appetizers....brown sugared-bacon wrapped dates, home cured salmon, Asian pork skewers, chicken pho (courtesy of Monarch 9), mini chicken burritos, plenty of cheese wheels, a charcuterie station with freshly sliced prosciutto (thank goodness for Costco!) along with artisanal sausages...and this year the fellows will be welcomed to the Monday night Hospitality with fresh homemade chocolate chip cookies, with a special sweet treat on Jubilee Day of Bananas Foster in lieu of cookies! There you have it, prayer, rest, good food, great camaraderie...all so we can return home to serve YOU as better and holier priests! Enjoy your holiday weekend and remember, you are loved. FKB May 27, 2018 page three May 26-27, 2018 Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Memorial Weekend Deuteronomy 4:32-46 Romans 8:14-17 Matthew 28:16-20 For many collegiate sons and daughters coming home for the Summer, there is a period of ‘remembering’ that is a part of the reintegration within the family unit. Having become used to being on their own throughout the school year, the semi-adult youth suddenly must remember that it is their PARENT’S home, that the ‘folks’ may have curfews, particular behavioral standards to be followed and expectations involving their kid’s participation within assorted ‘family’ events. Having been masters of their own world (with the exception of tuition, room and board, etc.) the learning curve can be unsettling for some. Having concluded the Easter Season, before we settle into the fullness of Ordinary Time, which will take us through Thanksgiving, we spend two weekends reacquainting ourselves with some ESSENTIAL components of our Catholic faith. This weekend, the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, reminds us that Jesus is PART of the TRINITY of God, a TRINITY composed of Father, Son and Holy Spirit. As parents are anxious to rediscover who their son or daughter has become while away at school, so we may have to take time to REMEMBER that Jesus always connects us with the FATHER, through the HOLY SPIRIT, that he does not exist alone. (Of course we could start getting wonky and remind people that the ETERNAL WORD, Jesus, existed before he was named Jesus...in the same way that the ETERNAL FATHER and ETERNAL HOLY SPIRIT have ALWAYS existed before we used English words to describe them.) Luckily there is no jealousy among the individual Trinitarian participants but Trinity Sunday reminds us that there is more to God than can quickly meet the eye.

  • Fr. Perozich Comments — If I Were to Wish To
    Fr. Perozich comments — If I were to wish to exert my own will over the Catholic Church rather than to continue to promote Jesus Christ’s sacrifice for our salvation from sin, death, and isolation for goodness, eternal life, and communion with God and one another, I would be astute in my approach. I would allow interviews with non believers to report what I said so that I would have deniability. I would put into power others of like mind to be heralds of my beliefs. I would caution on synods of particular churches, but not prohibit them in order to allow their teachings in accord with my own to come to the larger forum. I would use new language and meaning of “ starting from the pastoral situation” in which people live their lives be it good or bad, “discerning spirits”, “truth through discourse”, and the idea that what is decided locally could influence Rome. I would have my forgone conclusions ready to be presented for discussion and for the final document. The Catholic Church from the apostles did start with the “pastoral situation”, of people who were like sheep without a shepherd. The people were given clear teaching on living the commandments, not to break one of the least of them Mt. 5:19, to be baptized Jn 3:5, to eat the flesh and drink the blood of Jesus Jn 6:51-58, and to do the Father’s will Jn 14:23. Through the apostle John they were told not to trust any spirit 1 Jn 4, and through Paul to the Galatians 1 not to accept any other gospel.

St Columba’s Cathedral in Oban was filled to capacity on the evening of February 18 for the consecration of Bishop Brian McGee by Archbishop Leo Cushley, Bishop Joseph Toal and Bishop John Keenan. “Fr Brian is being sent to you, my dear brothers and sisters, precisely to preach the Good News to the poor, to bind up hearts that are broken, anointed as he will shortly be, by the Gift of the Spirit and commissioned by God’s Church to serve you,” Archbishop Cushley said in the presence of Bishop Toal, whom Bishop McGee follows as diocesan bishop, and Bishop Keenan, ‘up until now my boss,’ according to the new bishop who was vicar general in Paisley. The Archbishop of St Andrews and Edinburgh and the bishops of Motherwell and Paisley were joined at the celebration by the Apostolic Nuncio Archbishop Antonio Mennini; Cardinal Sean Brady of Ireland; their brother bishops in Scotland, including Bishops’ Conference President Archbishop Philip Tartaglia; the clergy and parishioners of the geographically large Argyll and the Isles Diocese; and the families of the diocese’s bishops, past and present.

  • 'War Is in the Air'
    ‘War is in the air’ They danced in the streets, in restaurants, everywhere, to the tune of “Love is in the air” at the news that the majority Australians voted for “marriage equality” for homosexuals. This is the latest in a chain of countries that have gone this way, all of them western nations, and all of them nominally Judeo-Christian. How has it come to this? How have the countries that benefitted from God’s greatest blessings turned against Him and gone to His Adversary’s way of life so remorselessly, and uncaring for the consequences? Even God is asking this question. Jer 2:4 Hear the word of the LORD, O house of Jacob and all the families of the house of Israel. Jer 2:5 Thus says the LORD: "What injustice have your fathers found in Me, that they have gone far from Me, Have followed idols, and have become idolaters? Jer 2:6 Neither did they say, 'Where is the LORD, Who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, Who led us through the wilderness, Through a land of deserts and pits, Through a land of drought and the shadow of death, Through a land that no one crossed And where no one dwelt?' Jer 2:7 I brought you into a bountiful country, To eat its fruit and its goodness. But when you entered, you defiled My land And made My heritage an abomination. Jer 2:8 The priests did not say, 'Where is the LORD?' And those who handle the law did not know Me; The rulers also transgressed against Me; The prophets prophesied by Baal [Satan], And walked after things that do not profit.
