5 From the Pastor
My Friends in Christ,
Well we made it through our first full weekend of Masses. Overall, I think they went well and people followed the safety proto-cols that are necessary. Thanks for your cooperation. I hope and pray that we will be able to have more people come as safety allows. It’s not perfect and we have a couple of kinks to work on at both parishes, but it’s the best we can do for now. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
For members of St. Paul’s, I want to let you know about a wonderful foundation that’s local and is helping out our parish. It’s called the Joseph Castrale/Johnanna Pollack Foundation. Some of you may remember Joe who was an active member of St. Paul’s and was principal of Washington School in town. He never married and lived a very simple life. When he died, he had ac-cumulated quite a tidy sum of money. The foundation was set up to help some of his favorite charities: St. Paul Church, Washing-ton School, Our Lady of Mt. Carmel School and Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church.
Each year the foundation uses the interest earned on his account and disburses the proceeds to these institutions. I am happy to report that St. Paul is going to receive around $19,000.00 from this foundation. I am very grateful for Joe’s love and support for our church. The proceeds this year will be used for the following: 1- All new lighting for the Church. 2- Repair of the church sign. 3- Resealing and striping of the parking lot. 4– The insurance bill for the diocese which is close to $5,000.00.
Though it is often a challenge to think and plan about, one day we too, will move from this life to the next. I would like you to prayerfully consider remembering your parish in your estate planning. It would be a living and ongoing legacy to your faith and what was important to you. Bequests will help keep your parish continue to strive to proclaim the Gospel in these unsettled times. Also, 100% of bequests stay at the parish.
No matter what parish you are from, remembering your parish in your estate will be very helpful so that the faith can be passed on to the next generation. Thanks for your generosity to your parish that you’ve shown to us over the past few months. Without having a weekly collection, we have pulled through the worst of it through your generosity. Thanks!
Fr. Brian

GOSPEL MEDITATION
June 28, 2020 13th Sunday in Ordinary Time
When we were baptized, we were baptized into Christ’s death. Take a moment to ponder these profound words. We were baptized into death. In every sense of the word, we are asked to die. This is not just about our final death but about daily deaths due to inconvenience, discomfort, pain, loss, or others’ needs. This is an incredible epiphany given the way we very often approach our lives. We do everything to avoid death, let alone encounter it! Many avoid pain, discomfort, inconven-ience, uneasiness, change, interference, and suffering of any kind. We put a lot of energy into finding the easiest and least in-convenient way through many things. Even holding the door open for a stranger or saying hello to someone in the store can be major undertakings.
We are called to die. One of the biggest wake-up calls we can have is realizing that life is not about us! There are millions of other people sharing life on this planet with whom I have a relationship. Does my life celebrate those relationships? The most distracting question we can ask is, “What do I want to do?” The more focused, faith-filled question is, “What do I need to do?” What I need to do may not be what I want to do. However, asking this question more frequently will teach us how to more purposefully and intentionally live so we can be a life giving vessel for others. When we learn to live more sacrifi-cially, to put the needs of others before our own, and to not always seek our own self-interest, we become aware of what baptism into Christ’s death is really all about. These are the roots of virtue and the seedbed for justice, tolerance, solidarity, love, and peace.
Learning how to accept all the “small deaths” and sacrifices life calls us and teaches us how to approach our final death. All deaths ask us to empty ourselves into something or someone else. Whether we empty ourselves into the heart and soul of another human being or empty ourselves into God at the moment of our final death, new life is always received and nur-tured. A heart that exclusively seeks its own interest is a heart that is closed to love. A heart that pours itself out to others and is content with being emptied is a heart that has been touched by and open to mercy. It is a heart that overflows with joy.
