.TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION The symbols and actions of baptism evolved around the experience of adults dying to old patterns of life and rising from the waters of baptism as new creations. As for newborn babies, at first it was desired to wait until the following Easter, when they could be baptized, anointed with chrism, and given a taste of the Eucharist in association with adults. The Church was always willing to baptize adults in emergency situations outside the Easter timetable, and in time, since infancy itself was a life-threatening situation, the baptism of babies became commonplace. As with the emergency adult baptisms, it was required that parents bring the child, as soon as health was recovered, to the bishop for the full menu of sacraments. The very real fear of death for infants thus created a situation in which the three sacraments drifted apart from each other, and away from their original, adult celebration at Easter. Today, at last, we know a great deal about how our practices evolved. This knowledge is reshaping how we celebrate Easter, how we receive adult faith, and how we structure the faith journey of children. Rev. James Field, Copyright J. S. Paluch Co. Znak baranka przewija się przez całą historię Narodu Wybranego. Spośród wielu ważnych momentów, zatrzymajmy się w szczególny sposób przy jednym, który znajduje się w samym centrum Starego Testamentu, w historii wyjścia Izraelitów z niewoli egipskiej. Znamy tę scenę: anioł śmierci przechodzi przez Egipt i zabija wszystkich pierworodnych. Omija domy Izraelitów oznaczone krwią baranka. Baranek został zabity, żeby oni mogli żyć i być wolni. Od tego czasu Izraelici co roku przeżywali święta paschalne na pamiątkę tamtego wyjścia. Co roku był baranek, była jego krew, było przypomnienie tego wyjątkowego wydarzenia. Nie można było o nim zapomnieć. To prawda, Bóg wiele razy działał w Narodzie Wybranym, ale to była interwencja najmocniejsza. Były też inne znaki: chleb, kielich z winem, gorzkie zioła... Niecałe 1300 lat po wydarzeniach z Egiptu grupa Apostołów wraz z Jezusem zasiadła do uczty paschalnej, żeby świętować tajemnicę wyjścia. Co ciekawe, opisy ewangelistów zgadzają się z tym, co wiemy na temat świętowania Paschy, ale z jednym wyjątkiem: brak w nich baranka. Dlaczego? To chyba jasne: tym razem prawdziwy Baranek Jezus zasiada do wieczerzy SUNDAY MASSES Saturday 4:00 pm Vigil Mass in English Sunday 7:30 am 10:30 am & 12:00 pm In English 9:00 am and 1:30 pm In Polish DAILY MASSES 7:30 am In English followed by Rosary 7:00 pm - In Polish on Fridays During the month of May: Monday thru Friday 7:00 pm - In Polish- May Devotion followed by Mass During the month of Oct.: Monday thru Friday 7:00 pm In Polish Rosary followed by Mass SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION Starts at: 6:00 pm on Friday 3:00 pm on Saturday ADORATION OF THE MOST BLESSED SACRAMENT 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm on Friday & 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm on first Thursday of the Month 3

Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion throughout the 9 months of a woman's pregnancy. Each year, inspired by the Holy Spirit s gift of Reverence, Catholics and all people of good will come together to pray and publicly intercede on behalf of the unborn, their parents, families, our communities, our nation and its leaders - that this prayerful presence may open hearts, minds, souls to the fullness of the Gospel of Life in our lives and laws. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has declared that in all the dioceses of the United States of America, January 22nd shall be observed as a particular day of penance for violations to the dignity of the human person committed through acts of abortion, and of prayer for the full restoration of the legal guarantee of the right to life.
