THE FEAST OF THE ASSUMPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY Dear Family, “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant. From this day all generations will call me blessed: the Almighty has done great things for me and holy is his Name.” Luke 1:46–49 Today we celebrate the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Solemnity of the Assumption honors the fact that when the Blessed Virgin Mary completed her life on earth, she never experienced death. Instead, at that glorious moment, she was singly privileged to be taken body and soul into Heaven to be with her resurrected Son so as to adore the Most Holy Trinity forever. The Gospel passage quoted above comes from the beginning of Mary’s song of praise, her Magnificat, by which she not only gives the greatest glory to God but also reveals who she is. She is the one whom “all generations” will call “blessed.” She is the one for whom “the Almighty has done great things.” She is the one who will eternally proclaim “the greatness of the Lord” and whose spirit will forever rejoice in God her Savior. And she is that lowliest of servants whom God has raised up to the greatest glory. For Gertrude Warrenburg and Bo Douglas, who were baptized last weekend, may their new life in Christ help them to grow ever more in wisdom, age, and grace. St. Pius X will host a Blood Drive via the Bloodmobile on Monday, August 16th in the front (south) church parking lot.

Young Adults’, join us Saturday, August 21st, for a day of kayaking on the White River. We’ll meet at White River Canoe Co. in Noblesville (17180 River Road) at 10:30 a.m. and will be done around 4:30 p.m. Cost is $30. Bring your own lunch, snacks, and drinks! To R.S.V.P., please email Mo McReynolds at [email protected] by August 16th. The Feast of our patron saint, Pope Pius X, is Saturday, August 21st. Join us for light refreshments Saturday, August 21st and Sunday, August 22nd, after all Masses. Come and socialize with your fellow parishioners as we honor our patron saint. Here are a few quick facts about Pope Saint Pius X: Pope Saint Pius the X was also called Giuseppe Sarto. He was born into a large, poor, Italian family in 1835 and chosen as pope in 1903. Just two years later, in 1905, he issued a decree encouraging Catholics to receive communion frequently, even daily! This was revolutionary – previously, Catholics were required to endure tedious preparation for the Sacrament, and it was seen as a “reward” for good actions rather than as a gift of healing and forgiveness. Pope Pius X helped the Church understand that the presence of Jesus in the Eucharist was a gift to us, and we do not have to be perfect to receive Him. Shortly thereafter, in 1910, Pope Pius X issued a decree on “early Communion”, saying that the First Communion of children should not be put off until the age of 12 or 14, as was common practice, but celebrated at the “age of discretion” – 7 years old. Love, Fr. Francis “And Mary said, “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; Please remember in your prayers my spirit rejoices in God my savior.” - Luke 1:46 After Jesus, we look to Mary as our model of stewardship. Her Nancy Catton, daughter of Dorothy Catton entire life was lived in obedience to God’s will. Just as the moon Larry Darling, husband of Pat Darling reflects the light of the sun, Mary reflects the light of Christ.

    St. John XXIII Feast: October 11 Facts Feast Day: October 11 Patron: of Papal delegates, Patriarchy of Venice, Second Vatican Council Birth: 1881 Death: 1963 Beatified: 3 September 2000 by Pope John Paul II Canonized: 27 April 2014 Saint Peter's Square, Vatican City by Pope Francis The man who would be Pope John XXIII was born in the small village of Sotto il Monte in Italy, on November 25, 1881. He was the fourth of fourteen children born to poor parents who made their living by sharecropping. Named Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli, the baby would eventually become one of the most influential popes in recent history, changing the Church forever. Roncalli's career within the Church began in 1904 when he graduated from university with a doctorate in theology. He was ordained a priest thereafter and soon met Pope Pius X in Rome. By the following year, 1905, Roncalli was appointed to act as secretary for his bishop, Giacomo Radini-Tedeschi. He continued working as the bishop's secretary until the bishop died in August 1914. The bishop's last words to Roncalli were, "Pray for peace." Such words mattered in August 1914 as the world teetered on the brink of World War I. Italy was eventually drawn into the war and Roncalli was drafted into the Italian Army as a stretcher bearer and chaplain. Roncalli did his duty and was eventually discharged from the army in 1919. Free to serve the Church in new capacities he was appointed to be the Italian president of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, handpicked by Pope Benedict XV.

In Britain in the 1890s a complacent sense of self- congratulation and imperial pride was tempered by a deep anxiety about the future: racial, social, religious and political, soon to be heightened by a bloody and protracted colonial war in South Africa, a conflict that led to a renewed focus on the levels of poverty and malnutrition apparent in urban areas of Britain.1 New forces on both the left and right were emerging to challenge the hegemony of liberal capitalism.

Dr Herzl outlined to the Supreme Pontiff of the Catholic Church the full details of the Zionist project, providing assurances that the various Holy Places in Palestine would be “ex-territorialised” to ensure their security and protection, and sought the Pope’s endorsement and support, preferably through the issuing of a pro-Zionist encyclical.

    The Holy See IUCUNDA SANE ENCYCLICAL OF POPE PIUS X ON POPE GREGORY THE GREAT TO OUR VENERABLE BRETHREN, THE PATRIARCHS, PRIMATES, ARCHBISHOPS, BISHOPS, AND OTHER ORDINARIES IN PEACE AND COMMUNION WITH THE APOSTOLIC SEE Venerable Brethren, Health and the Apostolic Benediction. 1. Joyful indeed comes the remembrance, Venerable Brethren, of that great and incomparable man, the Pontiff Gregory, first of the name, whose centenary solemnity, at the close of the thirteenth century since his death, we are about to celebrate. By that God who killeth and maketh alive, who humbleth and exalteth, it was ordained, not, We think, without a special providence, that amid the almost innumerable cares of Our Apostolic ministry, amid all the anxieties which the government of the Universal Church imposes upon Us, amid our pressing solicitude to satisfy as best We may your claims, Venerable Brethren, who have been called to a share in Our Apostolate, and those of all the faithful entrusted to Our care, Our gaze at the beginning of Our Pontificate should be turned at once towards that most holy and illustrious Predecessor of Ours, the honor of the Church and its glory. For Our heart is filled with great confidence in his most powerful intercession with God, and strengthened by the memory of the sublime maxims he inculcated in his lofty office and of the virtues devoutly practiced by him. And since by the force of the former and the fruitfulness of the latter he has left on God's Church a mark so vast, so deep, so lasting, that his contemporaries and posterity have justly given him the name of Great, and today, after all these centuries, the eulogy of his epitaph is still verified: "He lives eternal in every place by his innumerable good works" (Apud Joann.

As I am writing this we are in week seven of the Covid-19 quarantine. Our church has sat mostly empty during this scary time. I’m listening to “Silent Music” by Frederic Mompou, a Spanish (Catalan) composer of the early/ mid Twentieth Century. His style is impressionist-minimalist. These series of short piano solos capture this moment for me. The pieces are spare: notes linger into silence, more space is created in the emptiness, and much of its tonality is unresolved. The music leaves one with the impression that this music isn’t really meant to be heard by anyone but the performer. Listening to this collection feels like eavesdropping on Mompou’s private prayer. This is the exact opposite of how our liturgical celebrations are supposed to work. I have no words for what it has been like to say Mass by myself the last several weeks. The definition of liturgy is “the work of the people.” I have struggled with the concept of “celebrating Mass” alone because it violates what liturgy means. To be honest, it has felt like the most clerical thing I’ve ever done in 24 years.

  • Pius X Opposed WWI - Buried at St
    Pius X Opposed WWI - Buried at St. Peter's Basilica This is the Presentation Chapel, within Saint Peter's Basilica, and its alter. It is dedicated to Pope Pius X who is buried under the alter. From the Guide to St. Peter's Basilica, we learn more about this interesting place: Before this altar was dedicated to St. Pius X, it was known as the altar of the Presentation of the Virgin Mary in the Temple. She is portrayed as a little girl joyfully going up the steps to the temple with her parents Anne and Joachim. This event is magnificently depicted in mosaic by Romanelli to drawings by the painter Carlo Maratta. Below the altar, is a crystal coffin containing the body of St. Pius X (1904-1914), "pauper et dives, mitis et humilis corde” ["poor and rich, meek and lowly of heart"]. The body is dressed in pontifical robes, while the face and hands are covered with silver. The world greatly admired his wisdom and firm government. He helped restore Christian life by issuing wise laws on the religious education of children, youths and adults. His catechism gives clear answers to many religious questions. He allowed young children to take Communion, promoted the practice of daily communion as a source of virtue and holiness, he reformed the liturgy in the Missal and Breviary as well as sacred music and Gregorian chant. He fought against and condemned modernism which is still the cause of many evils. He was, however, unable to convince the reigning monarch and heads of state of his era to avoid the conflict that would shed blood throughout Europe for four long years.

  • Feast of Pope St. Pius X Reflection by Reverend Monsignor Dennis Mikulanis, KCHS
    Feast of Pope St. Pius X Reflection by Reverend Monsignor Dennis Mikulanis, KCHS A well-known and commonly sung Shaker Hymn says, “ ‘Tis the gift to be simple, ‘tis the gift to be free, ‘tis the gift to come down where you ought to be, and when we find ourselves in the place just right ‘Twill be in the valley of love and delight.” These words beautifully describe the life of Pope St. Pius X whose Feast Day is celebrated on August 21st. Giuseppe (Joseph) Sarto was the second of ten children born to poor but devout parents, who throughout his life, devoted himself to the service of Christ and the Church. In 1903, much to the surprise of everyone, the obscure cardinal of Venice, who had neither diplomatic experience nor any great intellectual writings to his name, was elected to the Chair of Peter and took the name Pius X. However, here was man of generous heart and empathetic spirit to the poor and disenfranchised who, none the less, was a staunch defender of the rights of the Church against the political interference of secular governments, and a man who fearlessly countered teachings contrary to the Faith. His purpose was to “renew all things in Christ”. In his mind the most effective way of doing this was to urge frequent, even daily when possible, reception of Holy Communion, for which he is most popularly known. St. Pius X is the one who decreed that children should receive Holy Communion upon reaching the age of reason, which was set at 7 years old, and that Holy Communion should be made more readily available to the infirm.

    The DIOCESAN Chronicle The Official News of the Diocese of Baker Published every two weeks for the sake of the unity of the Diocese and the “greater good of souls” August 1, 2010 Volume I, Number 5 VOCATION NEWS: Holy Family Parish in Burns was the site of a Vocations Roundup sponsored by the Baker Dio- cese Serra Club on Saturday, June 19. The intent of the event was to motivate parishioners to encourage voca- tions in their families and community and to inspire young people to consider vocations to the priesthood and religious life. About 80 people were in attendance, which included parishioners from Holy Family, as well as its mission Churches: Saint Thomas in Crane, Saint Charles in Juntura and Our Lady of Loretto in Drewsey and other Parishes of the Diocese and Deanery. The chil- dren were treated to games, followed by a BBQ/potluck lunch and talks from five priests who shared their voca- tion stories.
