This Eucharistic Feast

Some things about human nature don’t change, even over the course of centuries. When we celebrate a holiday, we have a meal; when we celebrate a sig-nificant event, we have a feast. In today’s first read-ing, Lady Wisdom is setting a feast, a sign of cele-brating the covenant that Israel has with God. Israel’s central remembrance of its saving Exodus covenant is the Passover meal. So it is natural—and not coinci-dental—that the Christian celebration of the new covenant sealed by the blood of Christ on the cross happens at a meal, our Eucharist, offered first by Je-sus in the context of Passover remembrance. It is easy for us, sometimes, to forget the very long and rich religious and human origins of our eucharistic feasting on the bread and cup that are the Body and Blood of Jesus. Today, and for the next few Sundays that we hear the “Bread of Life” discourse from John, let us bring to mind the loving covenant that God makes with us, and be filled with great joy at this marvelous feast that we have come to attend!

Saint Pius X’s Story – August 21

Pope Pius X is perhaps best remembered for his encouragement of the frequent reception of Holy Communion, especially by children.

The second of 10 children in a poor Ital-ian family, Joseph Sarto became Pius X at age 68. He was one of the 20th century’s greatest popes.

Ever mindful of his humble origin, Pope Pius stated, “I was born poor, I lived poor, I will die poor.” He was embarrassed by some of the pomp of the papal court. “Look how they have dressed me up,” he said in tears to an old friend. To another, “It is a penance to be forced to ac-cept all these practices. They lead me around surrounded by soldiers like Jesus when he was seized in Gethsemani.”

Interested in politics, Pope Pius encour-aged Italian Catholics to become more politically involved. One of his first papal acts was to end the supposed right of governments to interfere by veto in papal elections—a practice that reduced the freedom of the 1903 conclave which had elected him.

In 1905, when France renounced its agreement with the Holy See and threatened con-fiscation of Church property if governmental control of Church affairs were not granted, Pius X courageously rejected the demand.

While he did not author a famous social encyclical as his predecessor had done, he de-nounced the ill treatment of indigenous peoples on the plantations of Peru, sent a relief commis-sion to Messina after an earthquake, and shel-tered refugees at his own expense. On the 11th anniversary of his election as pope, Europe was plunged into World War I. Pius had foreseen it, but it killed him. “This is the last af-fliction the Lord will visit on me. I would gladly give my life to save my poor children from this ghastly scourge.” He died a few weeks after the war began, and was canonized in 1954.

Calling all Musicians

We are excited to announce that we will be forming a contemporary praise and worship group to perform on the last Sunday of every month at the 7 pm Mass. All instruments, (especially guitar and percussion), will be con-sidered. Musicians should be able to sight read music. Singers are also welcome. If you are in-terested in joining this contemporary group, please contact Jonathan Goldwasser, worship team director at 914-356-2995.

Rite of the Christian Initiation of Adults

Sacred Heart Church will start the Rite of the Christian Initiation of Adults program both in English and Spanish for anyone who has not completed their three initiation Sacraments, (Baptism, First Holy Communion and Confirma-tion). If you know anyone who would be inter-ested in becoming a full member of our Church, please call the rectory for further information at (914) 949-0028.

Renew and Rebuild Campaign

The Archdiocese of New York has em-barked on a campaign to renew and rebuild our church physically and spiritually. Most of the money raised by our parish will stay within our parish to rebuild and upgrade our physical plants. Some money will be used to support other Archdiocesan priorities; such as, extraordi-nary capital projects for needy parishes, evange-lization and lay leadership formation, Catholic High Schools, Catholic Charities and of St. Pat-rick’s Cathedral restoration.

.

The altar bread at Mass becomes the body of Jesus Christ and the wine at Mass be-comes the blood of Jesus Christ. If you wish to have the altar bread and or the altar wine memorialized in memory of a loved one, to honor a special occasion, or a special intention please call Sacred Heart Parish Office at 949-0028. The offering for each one is $100 for the month. The memorial will be published in the bulletin the first week of the month. Thank you.

2019 Mass Book The Mass book for the year 2019 is open. Mass intentions can be reserved at the Rectory office Monday thru Friday.
