This sound familiar?: Before the cock crows today, you will deny me three mes As we enter the holiest of weeks, we might remember those words of Jesus and squirm as we see ourselves in Peter s shoes. During this short week, how many mes will we deny Jesus? How many mes will we act as though we do not know the man? How many mes will our ac ons not match up to what we say we believe? It can happen from the moment we open our eyes, any me of the day or night. As Peter was weak and afraid, so, naturally, are we. It happens to everyone of us. We re not saints, we are only striving to become saints. So, tempta on is around every corner. Let s try our hardest to make this week as holy as possible. If we stumble along the way, God s mercy awaits us and will always welcome us back if we are contrite.

What a great way to share the joy of the Resurrec on! Dona on is $20 per person and reserva ons would be appreciated by calling Ken at 216 370 2831. Zapraszamy wszystkich którzy uczestniczą w niedzielnej mszy o 10 rano do skorzystania z kartek z pieśniami które są umieszczone przy obu wejściach kościelnych, a także na środku kościoła. Celem naszym jest umożliwienie parafianom w większej mierze uczestniczenia w tajemnicy i ofierze nabożeństwa. Wiele pieśni jest powszechnie znanych. Mamy nadzieję, że z łatwością będziecie państwo mogli śpiewać razem z nami. Niektóre utwory są nowsze i mniej znane, lecz widząc słowa można modlić się wraz z chórem i resztą kongregacji. Jak powiedział św. Augustyn: "kto śpiewa, dwa razy się modli". Nawet nie śpiewając, prosimy o ciche przyłączenie się do modlitwy skupiając się na słowach. Warto się wsłuchać i zwrócić myśli do Boga Ojca, któremu ofiarujemy msze świętą. Celem tego przedsięwzięcia jest pomoc w wielbieniu Boga i zachęcenie do większego uczestnictwa w Najświętszej Ofierze, jak również to, by każdy parafianin mógł zapoznać się z repertuarem pięknych hymnów katolickich, zarówno współczesnych jak i tradycyjnych. Prosimy skorzystać, by msza święta stała się jeszcze piękniejsza.

W I E L K I T Y D Z I E Ń Hosanna i Ukrzyżuj. Te dwa okrzyki słyszymy niejako obok siebie w dzisiejszej liturgii słowa. W rzeczywistości dzielił je niecały tydzień czasu. W niedziele Jezus jest uwielbiany przez tłumy, w piątek natomiast prawdopodobnie te same tłumy domagają się jego śmierci. Często też tak bywa i w naszym życiu, że po dniach chwały przychodzą nagłe dni klęski, poniżenia, dni trudne i straszne. Takie jest właśnie życie. I kto chciałby żyć jedynie w chwale ten żyłby w zakłamaniu, w ułudzie, w nierealnym świecie. Warto jednak pamiętać, że nie ja pierwszy i na pewno nie ja ostatni przeżywam tego typu wzloty i upadki. Wielu było przede mną i wielu będzie po mnie. Pytanie jest tylko: jak przyjmuje te zmienne koleje losu? Czy mam świadomość, że zarówno ludzka chwała i uwielbienie, jak i ludzka pogarda i nienawiść są przemijające? Liczy się tak naprawdę tylko moja wartość wewnętrzna i to jak mnie widzi i ocenia Pan Bóg. Historia męki Pana Jezusa rozpoczyna postanowienie Wysokiej Rady, żeby podstępnie i bez rozgłosu uwięzić Jezusa. Dlatego też propozycja ucznia Jezusowego, Judasza, że zdradzi swego Mistrza została jakby przyjęta z ogólną aprobatą. Na początku święta Paschy Judasz dopomógł podstępnie pojmać Jezusa w miejscu gdzie zwykł on zatrzymywać się wieczorem, właśnie na Górze Oliwnej. Motywy, którymi się kierował Judasz jednak nie są dostatecznie jasne. Mateusz podkreśla jego chciwość i zbytnie przywiązanie do pieniądza. Natomiast Jan wyjaśnia krok Judasza takim oto zdaniem: Wszedł w niego szatan pisze. Oznacza to, że nieszczęsny apostoł był w tej chwili już zupełnie pusty, niezamieszkały, że miłość ku Chrystusowi zupełnie z niego uszła jak powietrze i dlatego diabeł otrzymał zielone światło na skrzyżowaniu dróg prowadzących do jego serca. Nie jest łatwo bronić takiego zdrajcy jakim był Judasz, ale można i chyba trzeba postawić pytanie dotyczące pozostałych apostołów gdzie oni byli gdy ten niebezpieczny proces dokonywał się w jego sercu, w sercu Judasza? Dlaczego nikt nie wyciągnął wtedy ku niemu pomocnej ręki? Dlaczego Jan nie wybiegł za nim w ciemność chociaż wiedział o co chodzi. To co się stało z Judaszem niech będzie przestrogą dla wszystkich idących za Jezusem. Stale ktoś odchodzi w ciemność i stale ktoś powinien stawać od przyjemnej wieczerzy i biec za nim, biec, aby go powstrzymać. Dziękujemy o.michałowi Czyżewskiemu z zakonu O. Paulinów z Bufflo za wygłoszone rekolekcje w polonijnych parafiach. Życzymy Mu Bożego błogosławieństwa w dalszej posudze kapłanńskiej. Wiernym za złożne oinformacje o godzinach nabożeństw w Wielkim Tygodniu i święceniu pokarmów znajdują się w części amerykanskiej biuletynu. W Wielki Piątek obowiązuje wszytskich od 14 do 60 roku życia post ścisły jeden do syta, dwa lekkie posiłki bezmięsne! Bóg zapłać Pani Krystynie Jankowskiej za zakup dla naszej Parafii 4 ornatów, które będą służyły w naszym kościele przez wiele lat przy sprawowaniu Eucharys i. Niech Pan Bóg wynagrodzi ten dar błogosławieństwem i wszelkimi potrzebnymi darami na trudy codziennego życia.
