FROM OUR PASTOR �
Dear Parishioners, �
As my ministry comes to a
close here at Tuesday morning
Mass, I wish to thank all of you for
welcoming me to Charlotte these past
three years. I trust you will welcome
your new priests beginning their
ministry at Holy Cross.�
You may see me on the property
here for a couple of weeks because the
rectory in Hamlin is still undergoing
repairs and cleaning. �
The cost of sealing and restriping
the parking lot north of church
completed a week ago Friday, was
$5,860. �
The Knights of Columbus continue
to manage the St. Pauly Clothing Shed
which produces revenue for the parish.
We just received a check this week for
$135.73 for the month of May,
payment for 3,393
1
/
4
pounds of
clothing placed in the Shed, with 4
pickups during the month.�
Thanks to the family
of Kathleen Traino �
(1937�2020) �����
for including Holy Cross
Parish in her obituary
for Memorial Gifts. Her
funeral on Friday was
our first in church since
the pandemic began. By
including Holy Cross Parish in obituaries
and Wills, we provide for future
property and building improvements
and for necessary repairs.�
Because of recent gifts received
including my own stimulus payment of
a few weeks ago, our Line of Credit at
the bank is down to just $23,567.68
from $180,000, an 87% reduction of
our parish debt in three years.�
Thanks also for today’s parish car
parade and the reception with the
Parish Council and Stewardship
Committee. �
Sincerely, Father Gagnier�
Congratulations Graduates!�
To honor the hard work and accomplishments of these
wonderful 6th graders, each was welcomed into church
with family, one at a time, to be greeted by Mrs. Martell,
Mrs. Bates, Mrs. Holleran, Mrs. Strassner, and Father
Gagnier.�The 6th graders were given their graduation
certificates, special awards and mementos, and had their
pictures taken (thanks to Miss Carmona). �
Very Rev. William G. Coffas, �
Dean of the Monroe Central Deanery�
Our new Pastor, Father Bill Coffas, is shown with the new
Sanctuary Lamp designed by�and donated to Holy Cross
Church by Father Gagnier. �

13th Sunday in Ordinary Time�
First Reading 2 KGS 4:8�11, 14�16A�
One day Elisha came to Shunem,�
where there was a woman of influence, who urged him to
dine with her. Afterward, whenever he passed by, he used
to stop there to dine. So she said to her husband, “I know
that Elisha is a holy man of God. Since he visits us often,
let us arrange a little room on the roof and furnish it for
him with a bed, table, chair, and lamp, so that when he
comes to us he can stay there.” Sometime later Elisha
arrived and stayed in the room overnight.�
Later Elisha asked, “Can something be done for her?”�
His servant Gehazi answered, “Yes! She has no son, and
her husband is getting on in years.” Elisha said, “Call her.”�
When the woman had been called and stood at the door,�
Elisha promised, “This time next year you will be fondling
a baby son.”�
�
�
Second Reading ROM 6:3�4, 8�11�
Brothers and sisters:�
Are you unaware that we who were baptized into Christ
Jesus were baptized into his death? We were indeed buried
with him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ
was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father,�
we too might live in newness of life.�
If, then, we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall
also live with him. We know that Christ, raised from the
dead, dies no more; death no longer has power over him.�
As to his death, he died to sin once and for all; as to his
life, he lives for God. Consequently, you too must think of
yourselves as dead to sin and living for God in Christ
Jesus.�
�
Responsorial Psalm PS 89:2�3, 16�17, 18�19�
R. For ever I will sing the goodness of the Lord.�
The promises of the LORD I will sing forever, through all
generations my mouth shall proclaim your faithfulness. For
you have said, “My kindness is established forever;” in
heaven you have confirmed your faithfulness.�
R.�For ever I will sing the goodness of the Lord.�
Blessed the people who know the joyful shout; in the light
of your countenance, O LORD, they walk. At your name
they rejoice all the day, and through your justice they are
exalted.�
R.�For ever I will sing the goodness of the Lord.�
You are the splendor of their strength, and by your favor
our horn is exalted. For to the LORD belongs our shield,
and the Holy One of Israel, our king.�
R.�For ever I will sing the goodness of the Lord. �
Alleluia 1 PT 2:9�
R.�Alleluia, alleluia.�
You are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation;�
announce the praises of him who called you out of
darkness into his wonderful light.�
Confiteor �
I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sis-
ters, that I have greatly sinned in my thoughts and in my
words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,
through my fault, through my fault, through my most griev-
ous fault; therefore I ask blessed Mary ever�Virgin, all the
Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray
for me to the Lord our God. �
June 28, 2020 Holy Cross Church, Rochester, New York 5
Nicene Creed �
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven
and earth, of all things visible and invisible. �
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son
of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God,
Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not
made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all
things were made. For us men and for our salvation he
came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was
incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our
sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered
death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in
accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come
again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his
kingdom will have no end. �
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who
proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father
and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken
through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and
apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the
forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection
of the dead and the life of the world to come. �
Amen. �
Gospel MT 10:37�42�
Jesus said to his apostles:�
“Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not
worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more
than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take
up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.
Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his
life for my sake will find it.�
“Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever
receives me receives the one who sent me. Whoever
receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a
prophet’s reward, and whoever receives a righteous man
because he is a righteous man�
will receive a righteous man’s reward. And whoever gives
only a cup of cold water to one of these little ones to drink
because the little one is a disciple�amen, I say to you, he
will surely not lose his reward.”�
Memorial Acclamation �
We proclaim your Death, O Lord, and profess your
Resurrection until you come again. �
Holy, Holy Holy,�
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty,�
Heaven and earth are full of your Glory, �
Hosanna in the highest.�
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, �
Hosanna in the highest.�
Farewell Parade�
Father Gagnier’s final Masses at Holy
Cross are taking place THIS Weekend,
Saturday, June 27 and Sunday, June 28.�
Since we cannot hold a farewell
party, please join us in a car Farewell
Parade following the 10:00 AM Mass
THIS Sunday, June 28. Please line up along Lighthouse
St. behind school facing North. Each car can proceed
toward, and past, the parish center where Fr Gagnier will
greet well�wishers. All are invited and welcomed to join
this special send off.�
Please wear masks if you will be reaching out to hand him
a card.�
Prayer for Father Gagnier�
Lord God, most holy, we approach you in gratitude for
your holy ordained priesthood.�
You have called Father Gagnier to be set apart and to
shepherd your people, as you shepherd your entire church.�
We pray for him in his daily work. Grant to him an
increase in spiritual gifts and grace, so he may be pre-
pared for the tasks at hand.�
Lead him not into temptation and protect him from the
grasp of the evil one.�
It is through the sacraments he confers that we encounter
the divine in a real and profound way.�
May your church never lose sight of your special son, and
may we, the body of Christ, never fail to cherish the gift of
his life, which he has freely given to you and your holy
church.�
We ask this in the name of Jesus, your Son.�
Amen.�
Dear Father Gagnier,�
So much appreciation needs to be shown to those who
direct us in God’s great Love, and encourage a strong
walk in faith. These are really some of the most
important people in our lives, and showing respect to
them is to show His great Love in return. This is what
builds and strengthens churches. �
We are grateful for your leadership here at Holy Cross
over the past few years. We have learned much from
you and hope to continue successfully growing as a
parish.�
We will pray for you and your new parishioners at
St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church in Hamlin. My God’s
blessings be upon you.�
