My Dear Parishioners,

As I write this weekly column, the

noise of construction equipment is not

far from my window. When you arrived

on the parish grounds, you probably no-

ticed the progress that has already

been made in patching cracks and re-

sealing major portions of our parking

lot. Hopefully by this weekend, all parking spaces will

have been re-striped, and as a result, will now include

several larger spaces. Unfortunately, because the town-

ship requires a certain amount of parking spots, not all of

our spaces could be enlarged. We hope those with larger

vehicles will find the new spaces more convenient and

comfortable.

Out of concern for the safety of pedestrians, a few

raised surface elevations have been added to the drive-

way, left of the church, to force motorists to slow down in

that area. This is particularly important now that we have

our pre-kindergarten on campus, with little children sev-

eral times a week travelling from the St. Francis Center to

the school.

The final phase of our summer parking lot project will

be the addition of new poles, with additional and better

lighting for the driveway and parking area near the Drexel

Center. These should be installed by the end of the sum-

mer. I thank you for your continued generosity, which

allows all of this to happen. At the same time, I applaud

the members of our Building and Grounds Committee,

and in particular Cas Ilenda, who guided the project each

day to a successful conclusion.

I realize, especially by the lighter attendance at Sunday

Mass these past few weeks, that we are still at the high

point of summer vacations. Having recently enjoyed two

weeks away at the seashore myself, I know how important

a vacation is to relax and renew your energy. However,

since we never take a vacation from God, I once again

urge you to plan ahead to know when and where Sunday

Mass will be available to you. If you are not sure, you are

encouraged to access MassTimes.org, or call the rectory

and one of us will be able to assist you.

May these remaining weeks of summer be times of

peace and joy for you and your family!

May God Bless You,

St. Bede 103 August 7, 2016

Scripture Readings

Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time August 14, 2016 Jeremiah 38: 4-6, 8-10

Psalm 40

Hebrews 12: 1-4

Luke 12: 49-53 This Gospel is a difficult one, because Jesus says that He

has come to bring not peace, but division. Jeremiah too was

accused of demoralizing the people. What could possibly be

the good news in these readings? Perhaps the answer is in

today’s passage from the Letter to the Hebrews. Just as Jesus

persevered through His Passion and cross and is now glori-

fied, so we who follow Christ will see our reward even

through our witness may cause division as well.

What's New This Year?

“Adam and the NewHearts”

In our quest to bring something new to the Parish Picnic,

the Picnic Committee has arranged for an oldies band to per-

form this year. (While they will not be with us this year, we

appreciate the ten years of entertainment provided by the Verdi

Band, and look forward to their participation at other parish

events.)

Adam and the NewHearts (above) is a five piece band that

plays Rock 'n' Roll from the 50's and 60's. The committee

thought this was something many would enjoy. You can see a

preview at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=JS34VbInLDw

Pro Life Bill Passes PA House House Bill 1948 updates Pennsylvania’s laws to be in line

with the will of most Americans as well as medical advance-

ments that reveal the baby’s ability to feel pain and live outside

the womb. And it passed the House by a vote of 132 to 65.

Specifically, House Hill 1948 bans dismemberment abor-

tion, which ends the life of the unborn baby by tearing off one

limb at a time and increases the risk of injury to the mother, is

used in over 1,500 abortions in Pennsylvania each year. It also

bans abortions after 20 weeks, when the baby can feel pain and

risks to the health of the mother increase significantly.

The legislation now heads to the Senate, where a similar

bill, Senate Bill 888, has also been introduced.

“This vote clearly indicates that the vast majority of Penn-

sylvania’s representatives are committed to protecting unborn

children. We thank them for this important vote that upholds

the dignity of of all human life,” said Fran Viglietta, Director

of Social Concerns.

Solemn Mass at 11:30 a.m. followed by a procession

through the streets during which 25 men carry the Statue of

Our Lady. The procession concludes with Solemn Benedic-

Corrections

Our listing last week of recent Mass Enrollments incorrectly stated

that the enrollment of Francis Mulholland (from Helen Barrett &

family) was for 25 years. In fact, the enrollment is perpetual.

Also, the Mass Enrollment for Rosemary Brinkos (from the

Schlenker family) was marked as “deceased,” when Mrs. Brikos is,

thankfully, still with us.

We apologize for the errors.
