St. Ignatius SEPTEMBER 24, 2006—25th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME &

Christ the Redeemer M & M’s

Parish Priest Rev. Michael A. Molnar This past week I was over in Kingston, for a conference on the Pontifical Mission Societies for the Antilles Conference of Bishops. Directors of the Mission Societies meet every year to dis- Associate Priest cuss the importance of the Missions in our world and in the Caribbean Islands. The Papal Rev. Alexander Crasta was there, Archbishop Thomas Gullickson, along with Archbishop Burke from Kingston, and Bishop DuFour from Montego Bay and Bishop Vincent Darius from . It was quite im- Deacon pressive having so many bishops at this conference. There are 20 regions in the Antilles Confer- Rev. Mr. Joseph Biggs ence of Bishops. Our region, the Cayman Islands is the only one that does not receive monies from the Pontifical Mission Society since we are financially backed by the Archdiocese of Detroit. This Music Directors is a good thing that we are not considered mission territory although we are a mission standing St Ignatius: alone. But all the other regions are mission territories. What is nice is that all the monies we collect for the mission all stays here in the Caribbean Islands. Last year we collected almost Mr. Simon Donoghue $20,000 in all the collections that went to missions, the Holy Land, Peter’s Pence, and the collection Christ the Redeemer: we sent for New Orleans after their hurricane. As a region we received many compliments on Mr. Albert Chin what we were able to collect since we are the smallest of all the regions. The Pontifical Mission Societies is composed of four societies. Religious Education The Pontifical Society for the Propagation of the Faith Director The Pontifical Society of the Holy Childhood Mr. O’Neil Miller The Pontifical Society of St. Peter the Apostle The Pontifical Missionary Union Church Secretary The Propagation of the Faith is supported by World Mission Sunday at the end of October. It’s May U. Ursua aims are to maintain in the Church the Spirit of Pentecost which opened the apostles to the far ends of the earth and made them missionaries; it is the Catholic or universal spirit that belongs to the Youth Minister very nature of the Church. Also to live the universal message of redemption in union with Christ in his Church as the foundation of a common apostolic responsibility. And to participate in the Mr. Jeremy Rice proclamation of the Gospel with the example of one’s own life and with the contributions of one’s

own professional and productive human potentialities, also presented in monetary offerings. Some Year 7-13 Principal give to the missions by going to the missions. Some go to the missions by giving to the missions. Mr. Peter Embleton Both must happen for it to work well. Phone: 949-9250 The Holy Childhood Society addresses itself to children and adolescents in order to awaken Fax: 949-5497 their missionary awareness and to support their openness to charity and Christian solidarity. We hope to make this Society a part of the work of our children in our school that they might be able to Year KG-6 Principal support other children in the Caribbean Islands.

We as a parish have not been very involved in this aspect of the Society and I hope we can Fax: 945-6230 begin to see the importance in helping in some way to foster the vocations in the Caribbean Islands. The Pontifical Missionary Union is the promotion of missionary work and the spread of the St. Ignatius School missions, not through aid, but through prayer. I would hope that we could all be a part of the mis- Administrative Staff sionary union by praying for the missions every day. I encourage all those who take time to pray Mrs. Deborah Huggins in the Eucharistic Chapel would say some prayers for the missions during the month of October. Mrs. Anita McIntyre Mrs. Rashmi Arun This week I am going to be in Scotland and Ireland as part of my celebration of my 30th anniver- Thomas Lasley sary in the priesthood that we celebrated last February 13th. I know that Fr. Alex, O’neil and May will be able to take care of all your needs throughout the next two weeks. Once again thank Website you to all who shared in your gifts for my 30th anniversary to assist me on this trip. Paul deFreitas Fr. Mike 947-8630

St. Ignatius/Dorothy Rice Scholarship Fund has been in existence for Amen the past nine years. The fund was created to allow eligible students to continue receiving a Catholic Education. The annual fee at St. Igna- tius are about $6500 per student. The scholarship fund tries to cover about 15-20% of this for needy families. Last year, thanks to the WORLD YOUTH DAY 2008 generosity of parishioners and the sale of Mother’s Day/Father’s Day cards, we assisted more the 40 children with about CI$35,000 total. In SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA return for the help the families must volunteer to work at school events during the term. Unfortunately, due to Hurricane Ivan, it has been very difficult to do any fund-raising on the local level over the past two The St. Ignatius /Christ the Redeemer Catho- years. At the same time, costs all over the island have risen dramati- cally, and many families who never previously applied for assistance lic Church Community is in the process of are now coming forward. Any assistance from the parishioners is al- planning a pilgrimage for young people from ways gratefully received.
