St. Elizabeth of Hungary

“The LORD is in his Holy Temple;

let all the earth keep silence before

Him.” (Hab 2:20)

Until 1969, the various Catholic lit-urgies were all of apostolic origin.

The Gregorian Latin liturgy, cele-brated in this church, follows the tradition of Saint Peter, the first Pope, and has never undergone any essential change till the present time.

Every gesture, every word has been weighed and measured with the as-sistance of the Holy Ghost for the greater glory of God and the salva-tion of souls.

We thank you for coming. Whether you are just visiting us for a brief time, looking for a spiritual home, are returning to the practice of Catholic faith or are interested in finding out more about the Catholic Church; we are happy to have you here, as you are. Please take time to read this bulle-tin, to meet with the priest after Mass and to socialize. Enter the Holy Temple of the Good Lord to worship Him. Pax vobis! Peace be with you!

“Let the charity of the brotherhood abide in you and hospitality do not for-get; for by this some, being not aware of it, have entertained angels” .

“Wherefore receive one another, as Christ also hath received you unto the honor of God” .

To receive Holy Communion:

- You must be a baptized Catholic, hav-ing made a good confession since the last committed mortal sin - if any - in order to hopefully be in the state of Grace. - You must believe in the doctrine of Transubstantiation. “For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment upon himself” (1 Cor. 11:29). - You must observe one hour of Eucha-ristic fast (except water and medicine. Howev-er, we advise to abstain from food and alcohol for three hours and one hour for other liquid before Holy Communion). - One must not be a public sinner (public adulterer, concubine, public homosexual), or ex-communicated, or interdicted. - The most important requirement is to have a great desire to receive the Body,

the Blood, the Soul and the Divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ. You can humbly approach the Commun-ion rail at any time after the Communion of the priest. Then, open your mouth wide and extend smoothly and horizontally your tongue. There is no special order, so that nobody should feel compelled to follow a general movement. Do not judge your neighbor who abstains from receiving Holy Communion, as there is no obligation to receive it daily. Howev-er, “Live in a manner to be able to receive com-munion every day!” (St. Augustine) In this Church, the faculty to absolve sins is directly granted to the priests by the Holy Father.

Out of respect for Our Lord Jesus Christ and for the edification of our neighbor, we beg all to appear in Church decent in deportment and modest in dress. However, no one has the right to question others, especially visitors. It belongs to the parish priest alone to instruct the laity when they repeatedly dress or deport be-low expectation. For gentlemen and lads: Neither shorts,

T-shirts nor sneakers meet the norms of modesty. For ladies and girls: Neither shorts, slacks, sleeveless, short nor low-cut dress-es meet the norms of modesty. Furthermore, according to apostolic cus-tom or Church law, gentlemen are bare-headed in church; and ladies are requested to cover their heads.

Thank you for your charity.

The second collection on December 2nd will sponsor the Overseas Missions.

We have ordered a new statue of Our Lady of Fatima. If you would like to contribute, on your donation please note "Statue." Thank you.

St. Ambrose ( Concerning Repentance)

CHAPTER VI. The Novatians, by excluding such from the banquet of Christ, imitate not

indeed the good Samaritan, but the proud lawyer, the priest, and the Levite who are

blamed in the Gospel, and are indeed worse than these.

27. Do you then, O Novatians, shut out these? For what is it when you refuse the hope of for-giveness but to shut out? But the Samaritan did not pass by the man who had been left half dead by the robbers; he dressed his wounds with oil and wine, first pouring in oil in order to comfort them; he set the wounded man on his own beast, on which he bore all his sins; nor did the Shep-herd despise His wandering sheep.

28. But you say: Touch me not. You who wish to justify yourselves say, He is not our neigh-bour, being more proud than that lawyer who wished to tempt Christ, for he said Who is my neighbour? He asked, you deny, going on like that priest, like that Levite passing by him whom you ought to have taken and tended, and not receiving them into the inn for whom Christ paid the two pence, whose neighbour Christ bids you to become that you might show mercy to him. For he is our neighbour whom not only a similar condition has joined, but whom mercy has bound to us. You make yourself strange to him through pride, in vain puffing up yourself in your carnal mind, and not holding the Head. Colossians 2:18 For if you held the Head you would con-sider that you must not forsake him for whom Christ died. If you held the Head you would con-sider that the whole body, by joining together rather than by separating, grows unto the increase of God Colossians 2:19 by the bond of charity and the rescue of a sinner.

29. When, then, you take away all the fruits of repentance, what do you say but this: Let no one who is wounded enter our inn, let no one be healed in our Church? With us the sick are not cared for, we are whole, we have no need of a physician, for He Himself says: They that are whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.”

Next cleaning week will begin on Monday, No-vember 12th, 2018. Help is always needed. If you have any time to donate, please contact Teresa Wright at 407-422-0102.
