The Italian Parish of Indianapolis

B envenuto! Welcome to Holy Rosary

Church! Whether you are a lifelong

parishioner, a first-time visitor to our

parish, or someone in between, we

are grateful you have joined us today.

Founded in 1909 as the Italian Parish of

Indianapolis, we continue to serve as

the parish home of people of Italian

heritage and also embrace all Catholics

in union with Rome, including those

devoted to the Traditional Latin Mass

(Extraordinary Form) and the Anglican

Usage of the Roman Rite.

In the words of our founding pastor,

Msgr. Marino Priori:

“The church is the temple of the

Lord, the gate of heaven. Come after a

week of earthly cares, after so much

toil, after so many sorrows, after so

much pain. Rest your limbs. Regenerate

your spirit at the sources of grace.

Raise your mind to God; thank Him for

the benefits received through His

creation and in daily life; ask for

strength so you can win all of life’s

struggles, and be able to possess the

fruits of redemption.”

Here is an excerpt from an address Pope Benedict XVI delivered May 1, 2006, after reciting the rosary with the faithful

at the Shrine of Our Lady of Divine Love in Rome. The history of the shrine dates to 1740 when a man, about to be at-

tacked by vicious dogs, saw a nearby image of the Blessed Virgin Mary and cried out for her protection; the dogs imme-

diately fled. A church was built there in 1745 to house the painting he had seen. The site immediately became, and still

remains, a popular pilgrimage destination. It is especially notable as the shrine where Pope Pius XII prayed for Rome’s

safety and liberation during World War II.

D ear brothers and sisters, in this Shrine we venerate

Mary Most Holy with the title “Our Lady of Di-

vine Love.”

Thus, full light is shed on the bond that united Mary

with the Holy Spirit from the very beginning of her ex-

istence when, as she was being conceived, the Spirit, the

eternal Love of the Father and of the Son, made their

dwelling within her and preserved her from any shadow

of sin; then again, when the same Spirit brought the Son

of God into being in her womb; and yet again when,

with the grace of the Spirit, Mary‟s own words were

fulfilled through the whole span of her life: “Behold, I

am the handmaid of the Lord”; and lastly, when, by the

power of the Holy Spirit, Mary was taken up physically

to be beside the Son in the glory of God the Father.

“Mary,” I wrote in the Encyclical Deus Caritas Est,

“is a woman who loves. … As a believer who in faith

thinks with God‟s thoughts and wills with God‟s will,

she cannot fail to be a woman who loves” (n. 41). Yes,

dear brothers and sisters, Mary is the fruit and sign of

the love God has for us, of His tenderness and mercy.

Therefore, together with our brothers in the faith of all

times and all places, we turn to her in our needs and

hopes, in the joyful and sorrowful events of life. …

In the month of May an increasing number of people

come here as pilgrims from the parishes of Rome and

also from many other districts,

to pray and to enjoy the

beauty and restful tranquility

of these places. From here,

from this Shrine of Divine

Love, we therefore expect

powerful help and spiritual

support for the Diocese of

Rome … for families, for vo-

cations, for the poor, the suf-

fering and the sick, for the children and for the elderly,

for the entire beloved Italian nation. We are expecting

in particular the inner energy to fulfill the vow made by

the Roman people on 4 June 1944, when they solemnly

asked Our Lady of Divine Love that this city be pre-

served from the horrors of war, and they were

heard: the vow and the promise, that is, to correct and

improve one‟s own moral conduct to bring it more into

line with that of the Lord Jesus. Today, too, there is a

need to convert to God, to God who is Love, so that the

world may be freed from war and terrorism. …

Dear brothers and sisters, from this Shrine of Our

Lady of Divine Love, I therefore renew the invitation I

expressed in the Encyclical Deus Caritas Est: “To prac-

tice love and in this way to cause the light of God to

enter into the world” (n. 39). Amen!

‘Mary is the fruit and sign of the love God has for us’

OUR LADY OF THE ROSARY OF POMPEII FEAST DAY: MAY 8

‘J ust as two friends, frequently

in each other‟s company, tend

to develop similar habits, so too, by

holding familiar converse with Jesus

and the Blessed Virgin, by meditat-

ing on the mysteries of the Rosary

and by living the same life in Holy

Communion, we can become, to the

extent of our lowliness, similar to

them and can learn from these supreme models a life of

humility, poverty, hiddenness, patience and perfection.”

— Bl. Bartolo Longo, founder of the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary of Pompeii

May 12: World Day of Prayer for Vocations

‘Ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest’

T he Catholic Church worldwide will celebrate

the 56th annual World Day of Prayer for Voca-

tions next Sunday, May 12. It will be the Fourth Sun-

day of Easter in the Ordinary Form, a day commonly

referred to as Good Shepherd Sunday (the Extraordi-

nary Form marks Good

Shepherd Sunday today, the

Second Sunday after Easter).

Inspired by the Lord‟s in-

struction in the Gospels of

Matthew (9:38) and Luke

(10:2), in which Jesus exhorts

the people to “ask the master

of the harvest to send out

laborers for his harvest,”

World Day of Prayer for Vo-

cations unites the faithful

together in praying for the

fostering of all vocations, particularly those of or-

dained ministry and consecrated life.

In his Message for the 2019 World Day of Vocations, Pope Francis reflected on the reality that all men are

made “bearers of a promise” and are asked to have the “courage to take a risk” with Jesus and for Jesus. The

Holy Father emphasized that just as the Lord beckoned Simon and Andrew to leave their nets and follow Him,

He also asks the same of us. He encounters each of us personally and uniquely, and it is in the midst of this

encounter with Christ that Pope Francis says we are granted “the promise of a joy capable of bringing fulfill-

ment to our lives.”

The Holy Father also urged those discerning to remember that “the Lord‟s call is not an intrusion of God in

our freedom; it is not a „cage‟ or a burden to be borne. On the contrary, it is the loving initiative whereby God

encounters us and invites us to be part of a great undertaking.”

Former Archbishop of Indianapolis, Joseph Cardinal Tobin, chairman of the Committee on Clergy, Conse-

crated Life and Vocations, stated that it is precisely because of this encounter with Christ that we are given the

courage to leave the security of our daily routines and decisively embark on the path the Lord has for us.

“To have courage does not mean that we suddenly have no fear or uncertainty,” Cardinal Tobin said. To be

courageous means to know with confidence that Jesus is walking with us and in challenging us to take a risk,

intends only our greatest joy.”

Closing his Message for the 2019 World Day of Vocations, Pope Francis beseeched young people to realize

that following Jesus is always worth the risk.

“Do not be deaf to the Lord‟s call,” he urged. “If He calls you to follow this path, do not pull your oars into

the boat, but trust Him. Do not yield to fear, which paralyzes us before the great heights to which the Lord

points us. Always remember that to those who leave their nets and boats behind, and follow Him, the Lord

promises the joy of a new life that can fill our hearts and enliven our journey. — United States Conference of Catholic Bishops

SUPPORT VOCATIONS Special Second Collection at Holy Rosary

May 11-12, 2019 Sponsored by the Santo Rosario Council of the Knights of Columbus, all proceeds from this collection will go toward the vocational expenses of two young men from our parish:

Sam Rosko, a seminarian of Bishop Simon Bruté Seminary who is currently studying in Rome.

Austin Roy, who is preparing for a life of silence and solitude with the Carthusian monks at the Charterhouse of the Transfiguration in Vermont.

Please be generous in your support of these men who are answering God’s call.

Please note: This collection is not an initiative

of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops

‘Do not be

deaf to the

Lord’s call. If

He calls you to

follow this

path, do not

pull your oars

into the boat,

but trust Him.’

— Pope Francis
