Dear Parishioners,

The celebration of the Twenty Third Sunday of the year

this week-end is surrounded by two feasts of the Blessed Mother.

On Friday the Church celebrated the feast of the Nativity of the

Blessed Virgin. In the readings for the Mass on that day we prayed:

Let us rejoice in Mary's birth, the mother of Jesus. She was

predestined to give birth by the strength of the Lord. This fifth

century feast marks the anniversary of the dedication of a basilica

in Jerusalem built, according to tradition, on the location of the

home of St. Anne, the mother of Mary.

Then, on Tuesday, the Church celebrates the feast of the

Most Holy Name of Mary. In His compassion, the Lord has given us new life in Christ and God the Father is glorified by the exalted

role in salvation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Thus, her name is a

name of honor, a holy name, a maternal name and a name

responsive to the needs of the Church.

Thursday is the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross.

This feast celebrates a double anniversary. In Jerusalem the

Emperor Constantine erected a round church, the Anastasis, above

the empty grave of Jesus, and a basilica, the Martyrium. In the

square between the two churches, there was a shrine, the

Calvarium, marking the place of the crucifixion. Dedicated in the

year 335, they were destroyed by the Persians in 614. The two

churches were rebuilt by Patriarch Modestus of Jerusalem in 626,

but were later destroyed by the Muslims in 1009. The present

church of the Holy Sepulcher, rebuilt by the Crusaders, was

dedicated in 1149. Today also commemorates the discovery of the

Lord's cross by the empress St. Helena in 320. Before the changes

in the liturgy following the Vatican Council, the Wednesday, Friday

and Saturday following the Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross

were called Ember Days, a time to give thanks to God for the first

fruits of the Harvest.

Sincerely,

Fr John R. Mulvehill

Meets the 3rd Saturday of the Month

At St. Ann's by the Sea, Marshfield We meet the 3rd Saturday of every month at 10 a.m. in the side

Chapel. We pray the Rosary. Then we have a speaker for about 20-

30 minutes followed up with coffee and donuts. All for the

intentions of those addicted and their families. As an addict who

was healed by God's grace will tell you that both suffer equally.

The family is often more affected.

“Everyone, young or old, strong or weak, can love. But in this

world, love is bound up with giving; it entails sacrifice. The
