THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST - JUNE 18, 2017
OUR NEW PAROCHIAL VICAR, FR. ANTHONY GIACONA Father Anthony Giacona always knew where he could find God. When he was a child, all he had to do was walk out the front door. His childhood home was on the property of the parish church. “We were very close to the Church, physically and spiritually,” said Father Giacona, whose father, Conrad, was custodian of St. Gianna Beretta Molla Church in Northfield, N.J. “My family is very Catholic,” he said regarding his father, his mother, Christina, and his three sisters, Maria, LaNetta and Elisa. “We went to Mass every Sunday. Becoming a priest was always a possibility.” As an active member of the local Catholic youth group, he attended conferences and retreats and also sang in the group’s band. Hearing suggestions that he should consider becoming a priest was not an unusual occurrence, but he brushed them aside. “I didn’t like to hear that when I was younger,” said Father Giacona, 31. “I get it; I’m Catholic. But aren’t these things I’m doing something everyone should be doing?” “But, privately, I thought, maybe. I could be happy doing that,” he said. As a junior in high school, he read St. Augustine’s Confessions, which had a strong influence on his faith. “I was a hardcore Catholic guy at 18 years old, but I was still very raw,” Father Giacona said. At that time, his faith was very legalistic and moralistic, based on rules and books, he said. God Has Aly That changed as he earned his bachelor’s degree at Fordham University, Lincoln Center. Through the Catholic Culture Club, he was introduced to Communion and Liberation, a Catholic lay organization that he credits with a second conversion. “Communion and Liberation made me grow up in my faith,” he said. Through companionship with other believers, he saw a more human side to the faith and the continued presence of God in his life. “That really changed me. I thought, maybe I really do want to be a priest,” he said. However, he still had trepidations and was unsure about entering the seminary. After graduating, he worked as a teacher at St. Joseph by-the-Sea High School on Staten Island. That’s when he really began discerning his vocation. “I was doing this job. I liked working for the Church. I liked working with the kids. I assisted with the youth group for Communion and Liberation. I knew I didn’t want to be a teacher,” he said. After three years of teaching, he applied and entered the seminary. Father Giacona never doubted his faith, but that didn’t mean he didn’t face challenges and hard choices to get to where he is today. “I would have loved to have a wife and children, so it was very scary to give up those things, to give up my own freedom,” he said. “But once I grew closer to God, the more I understood love is bigger and deeper than our own ideas of it,” he said. “Once I understood the way Jesus loved—a chaste love, a celibate love, a love for everyone—I knew that’s the way I want to love. “That gave me the courage to say OK,” he said. © Catholic New York.

A FATHER’S DAY PRAYER
God our Father, We give you thanks and praise
for fathers young and old; May they find courage and
perseverance to balance work, family and faith in joy and sacrifice.
We pray for our own fathers
who have supported and challenged us;
May they continue to lead us in strong and gentle ways.
We remember fathers around the world whose
children are lost or suffering; May they know that the God of compassion walks
with them in their sorrow.
We pray for men who are not fathers but still mentor and guide us with
fatherly love and advice.
We remember fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers who are no longer with us but
who live forever in our memory and nourish us with their love.
Amen.
