5 From the Pastor s Desk... In this weekend s Gospel, we hear of the touching scene where the planter undertakes great effort and concern to try and save a tree which is endangered due to its failure to bear fruit. If the fig tree receives a second chance from the hands of the owner, shouldn t people all the more get second chances in life? It is difficult to imagine how our lives would look today if we had not been given second chances during our childhood, our adolescent years, and even as adults. Unfortunately, some people in the world lack this opportunity in regards to human institutions, but people never lack the opportunity to reform in the eyes of God. The right to second chances should be appreciated by parents, teachers, people in charge, and even our friends. Today, God reminds us of this right to redemption. Unfortunately, some people do not approve of this right. There are many instances where those who gave second chances were criticized or even condemned for this act of charity. The Church is the best example of this. The truth is, like always, somewhere in the middle of innocence and guilt. When the gardener sought out the second chance for the fig tree, he did not stop with mere words. He assured the owner of the garden that the tree will receive special attention and will be cared for with great interest. People must be treated similarly. It is not enough to give someone a second chance, but you must ensure that the person has sufficient resources to make use of the opportunity so that the second chance will end with a success and not yet another disappointment. Today s Gospel is an appeal for us to be jointly responsible for the well-being of others, and especially to take an interest in those who are lost in life here on earth and also their eternal destination. We should be especially concerned regarding those who suffer from addiction so that they may be given a second chance and that they may use it to the benefit of themselves and their families. Fr. Richard Milek St. Joseph s Table The Italian Catholic Federation is hosting St. Joseph s Table on Saturday, March 12 after the 5:00 pm Mass and after the Italian Padre Pio Mass at 7:00 pm in the Stokes Center. Proceeds from donations will go to St. Francis Borgia. All parishioners and guests are invited!

6 RUMMAGE SALE REMINDER The Parish Pastoral Council and the Catholic Women's Club will be sponsoring another rummage sale in April.

Catholic Women s Club is in the process of starting a Prayer Shawl Ministry. How does it work? Parishioners or non - parishioners knit or crochet a prayer shawl to be given to anyone that requests it for a loved one, either homebound, in the hospital, serving our country, or just in need of comfort. There is no cost to the recipient. If you are interested in helping with this new ministry, please contact Pauline Garrett at for more detailed information. REMINDER TO ALL MINISTERS OF COMMUNION AND LECTORS A Time of Reflection Monday, March 7th, 2016 in Church at 7 pm. Respect Life Men suffer too The following is a letter written by a man who lost his son to abortion: Dear John Peter, In the fall, John, when the leaves fall from the trees I shall think of you, for you too fell from life. In the cold of winter, John, the snow shall remind me of you: for like the snow you were and are white and pure. In the spring, John, I shall think of you: for the birth of spring shall remind me that you, too should have been born into this world. John, I shall think of you in the summer: I shall imagine your laughter. I shall see you as you might have been, a little boy running and playing, scraping your knees from a fall. I shall miss, John, all that I might have gained from your life. May you rest in the arms of God, Dad. Catholic Women s Club - Women, come join us and see what we are all about. New members always welcomed. C.W.C. Mass - Sunday, March 6th, at 10:30 am.

9 Z Biurka Księdza Proboszcza... W dzisiejszej Ewangelii znajdujemy piękny obraz troski i poświęcenia ogrodnika walczącego o ocalenie drzewa, któremu grozi wycięcie na skutek jego bezowocności. Jeśli drzewo figowe otrzymuje drugą szansę z rąk właściciela ogrodu to tym bardziej człowiek powinien otrzymać w życiu drugą szansę. Jak wyglądałoby nasz życie gdybyśmy w dzieciństwie, w młodości czy teraz jako dorośli nie mieli prawa do drugiej szansy, prawa do rehabilitacji w oczach Boga i ludzi. O tym prawie do drugiej szansy powinni wiedzieć rodzice, nauczyciele, przełożeni i przyjaciele. Dzisiaj o tym prawie przypomina nam sam Bóg. Niestety nie zawsze zastosowanie tego niepisanego prawa znajduje zrozumienie i aprobatę u innych. Są przypadki, kiedy Ci, którzy dali innym drugą szansę zostali za to skrytykowani, oskarżeni a nawet osądzeni. Kościół jest tego najlepszym przykładem. Prawda jak zwykle jest pośrodku. Kiedy ogrodnik poprosił o kolejną szansę dla drzewa figowego nie poprzestał na samej prośbie. Zapewnił właściciela ogrodu, że otoczy to drzewo jeszcze bardziej szczególną troską poświęcając jego pielęgnacji dużo serca i czasu. Podobnie trzeba postąpić z człowiekiem. Nie wystarczy dać mu drugą szansę, ale trzeba zapewnić mu środki i pomóc, aby tym razem jego próba zakończyła się sukcesem a nie kolejną porażką. Dzisiejsza Ewangelia to apel o współodpowiedzialność za drugiego człowieka, a szczególnie za tego, który zagubił się na drodze życia i zbawienia. Obejmijmy szczególną troską i modlitwą ludzi uzależnionych, aby otrzymali drugą szansę i jej nie zmarnowali, lecz przy naszej pomocy ją wykorzystali i podźwignęli się z nałogu dla dobra własnego i rodzinnego. Ks. Ryszard Miłek
