OUR LITURGY
Isaiah tells of the suffering servant who faithfully endures
persecution although he is innocent. Paul describes the self
giving love of Jesus as He empties Himself in obedience to
His Father. Each scene in the passion narrative shows us a
glimpse of the sacrificial love the Savior has for us. His love
overcame even denial and infidelity.
FROM THE DESK OF FR. MIKE
“Hosanna to the Son of David, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the
highest.” Jesus enters into Jerusalem on this Palm Sunday of The Lord’s Passion, as today, and this
Friday, we remember the last days of Jesus’ Earthly life. We will share in His Agony in The
Garden, being betrayed by one of His own, and the trials before the Sanhedrin and Pilate. We will
remember and even take the part of the crowd who calls out not to free the innocent carpenter from
Nazareth, but for the criminal Barabbas. We will also kneel before the Cross of Jesus (the Tree of
Life) and contemplate all He has done for us, and we will leave the Church in profound sorrow.
Yet, we will not leave in despair or hopelessness like the crowd who witnessed these events
2000 years ago. For we know that we will return next Sunday not only shouting hosannas, but also
that Jesus Christ has Risen Today! This is the Holiest Week of the Church’s year, and it is made so,
by what and how we remember. In this week, we will recall Holy Thursday and the sacraments of
Eucharist and Priesthood. We will remember His 7 Last Words, and in the Liturgy of His Passion
on Good Friday, we will remember His saving death.
Holy Saturday will find us blessing the new fire and the new water. We will celebrate with those
who are coming into the Church through the RCIA and remember our own Baptism. We will
celebrate the triumph over death and darkness. Our Lenten journey will come to an end, but our
Easter journey will be just beginning and we will be sanctified anew, and then we will shout from
the rooftops (oh, we will have to wait till next week, sorry)….
Please consult the bulletin for the schedule of services and the Sacrament of Reconciliation
during this week. Please remember that we have added two Masses on Easter Sunday that will be
celebrated in Carew Hall. The times of these masses are: 11AM & 12:30 PM. Also, please keep in
mind that the Easter Collection is one of the most important collections taken up in the course of the
year. Through your great generosity, the parish will be able to do much in serving the Gospel and
our brothers and sisters in Christ. Please be as generous as your means will allow.
Do all that you can, and allow God to do all that He can for you during this most holy of weeks.
Let us pray; Almighty Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, you sent your
Son to be born of woman and to die on a cross, so that through the
obedience of one man, estrangement might be dissolved for all. Guide
our minds by His truth and strengthen our lives by the example of His
death that we may live in union with you in the kingdom of your
promise. Grant this through Christ our Lord. Amen
Fr. Mike

China is Reversing Its Policy ….....Just days after the
Chinese government announced plans to provide
financial incentives to families who have newborn girls,
officials with East China’s Zhejiang province have
announced that it will strictly enforce a ban on all
abortions done to control the gender of the baby.
China’s one child population control program of forced
abortions and sterilizations has caused an epidemic of
families seeking to give birth to a baby boy. Faced with a
future where the predominately male population will
have few females to marry and sensing that this
dangerous trend needs to be reversed, national
government officials are instituting a new program
PAYING couples to have female babies! Families with
girls will be offered free schooling and better housing.
They will also be given preferential treatment in welfare
allowances and employment. This is good news.

In the remote southwestern area
of the Dominican Republic,
there are two Catholic parishes
staffed by volunteers from the
Diocese of Rockville Centre.
The first is San Pedro Apostol
in El Cercado and the second is
Nuestra Señora de Fatima in
Hondo Valle.
In 1979, following a request for
assistance from the late Bishop
Ronald Connors San Juan de la
Maguaña in the Dominican
Republic, leaders from the
Diocese of Rockville Centre
traveled there. Our diocesan
officials witnessed first-hand
that these parishes were in dire
need as the people were
starving and had little chance of
improving their situation.
Because our leadership felt it
was important to share our
resources with the poorest of
the poor, volunteers from our
diocese were asked to help, and
so our formal commitment to
these two parishes began.
Today, 25 years later, we
remain committed to assisting
the people of this struggling
area. Currently, Msgr. John
Cervini and Sisters of St.
Joseph Jane Reilly and Babs
Barry of our diocese are
voluntarily serving full-time
there at the parishes and at a
hospital hospitality house in
Santo Domingo. Their service
in helping the impoverished
people of this land is an
example for all of us to follow,
and one which we recognize
with profound gratitude.
Our main objective has been to
improve the quality of life for
the people of this area. Every
year, different groups from our
diocese also sponsor trips to the
two parishes. Lay and ordained
volunteers deliver food,
medicine and necessary
supplies. Our volunteers also
visit the poor, help with
Baptisms and provide necessary
assistance to the needy
residents. Frequently upon
returning from the journey, our
volunteers will share their
experiences with other
parishioners, which often
prompts other professionals to
travel to the Dominican
Republic and offer their
services free of charge.
Your gift to the Catholic
Ministries Appeal helps fund
this mission project of our
diocese and enables this most
important work to continue. We
help with such endeavors
because we, as Catholics, are
called upon to support the
universal Church, especially
those who are unable to help
themselves.

Even Used Inkjet Cartridges,
Have Their Uses
We have found a way to help St Joseph and keep those
complicated pieces of plastic, metal and printed circuit
boards out of the land fill. Drop them off (in a plastic
baggie) when you come to mass. We will send them to a
company who reuses them and gives the parish a bounty for
each. One note, to clear confusion, if it is larger than a fist,
it is not an inkjet cartridge!!!
