Visitors

Welcome to historic St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church! Built over a century ago, we all owe a debt of gratitude to the Irish faithful who were the first to call this church their parish. For apart from the countless sacrifices made by that first generation of faithful to build a suitable house of prayer and divine worship for the greater glory of God, this beautiful church would not exist.

Our beautiful stained-glass windows, perhaps the most stunning feature of the church, have been newly restored. Rendered in the Munich Pictorial style, they depict scenes from the life of Christ as well as images of various angels and saints.

The careful observer will discern elements from the Gothic, Romanesque, and Byzantine styles which together make up the style known as Venetian Gothic. Bishop Paprocki consecrated the new main and side altars in 2012 and established the church as a personal parish on New Years Day, 2014.

The liturgy celebrated at St. Rose follows the extraordinary form of the Roman Rite, and employs primarily the ancient Latin language. On Sundays, translations of both the ordinary and propers of the Mass are provided. To follow daily Mass you may wish to invest in a daily Latin English Missal available at the rectory or download an app like iMass. Internet access is available in church at StRoseChurch (password: latinmass). Make sure to mute your device while in church. Also, St. Rose’s state-of-the-art heating and cooling system assures a comfortable environment year round in which to pray and worship.

After both Sunday Masses, visitors are invited to meet and greet our parishioners in the parish hall and socialize over coffee and donuts. If interested in joining the parish, simply call the office.

The light that shone in the night at Christmas illuminating the

Bethlehem Grotto, where Mary, Joseph and the shepherds

remained in silent adoration, shines out today and is manifested

to all. The Epiphany is a mystery of light, symbolically suggested

by the star that guided the Magi on their journey. The true source

of light, however, the "sun that rises from on high" (cf. Lk 1: 78),

is Christ.

In the mystery of Christmas, Christ's light shines on the earth,

spreading, as it were, in concentric circles. First of all, it shines

on the Holy Family of Nazareth: the Virgin Mary and Joseph are

illuminated by the divine presence of the Infant Jesus. The light

of the Redeemer is then manifested to the shepherds of

Bethlehem, who hasten immediately to the grotto and find the

Child Jesus. Cf Lk 2: 12. Finally, Christ's brightness shines out,

reaching the Magi who are the first-fruits of the pagan peoples.

But what is this light? Is it merely an evocative metaphor or

does this image correspond to reality? The Apostle John writes in

his First Letter: "God is light; in him there is no darkness" (I Jn 1:

5); and further on he adds: "God is love". These two affirmations,

taken together, help us to understand better: the light that shone

forth at Christmas, which is manifested to the peoples today, is

God's love revealed in the Person of the Incarnate Word.

Attracted by this light, the Magi arrived from the East.

The manifestation to the Magi does not add something foreign

to God's design but unveils a perennial and constitutive

dimension of it, namely, that "in Christ Jesus the Gentiles are

now coheirs... members of the same body and sharers of the

promise through... the Gospel" (Eph 3: 6).

The Lord Jesus, at the same time and inseparably, is "a light

revealing to the Gentiles and the glory of your people Israel" (Lk

2: 32), as the elderly Simeon was to exclaim, taking the Child

Jesus in his arms. The light that enlightens the peoples - the light

of the Epiphany - shines out from the glory of Israel - the glory of

the Messiah.

The Magi worshipped a simple Child in the arms of his Mother

Mary, because in him they recognized the source of the twofold

light that had guided them: the light of the star and the light of

the Scriptures. In him they recognized the King of the Jews, the

glory of Israel, but also the King of all the peoples.

The Church is called to make Christ's light shine in the world,

reflecting it in herself as the moon reflects the light of the sun.

This is what disciples of Christ must do: trained by him to live

in the way of the Beatitudes, they must attract all people to God

through a witness of love: "In the same way, your light must

shine before men so that they may see goodness in your deeds

and give praise to your heavenly Father" (Mt 5: 16).

The Church is holy, but made up of men and women with their

limitations and errors. It is Christ, Christ alone, who in giving us

the Holy Spirit is able to transform our misery and constantly

renew us. He is the light of the peoples who has chosen to

illumine the world through his Church. Amen.

LIGHTHOUSE CD SPOTLIGHT: ST. TERESA OF AVILA

The Truth to Inspire Series offers children captivating dramatizations of the lives of saints and well-known Marian apparitions to teach them about the Catholic Faith. St. Teresa of Ávila had a fiery personality as a young girl and was often distracted by the world. Despite many temptations, she grew up to be a powerful influence on the Catholic Church. Her determination to follow God’s will is an inspiring example for both the young and the old.

This CD as well as other new titles are available in vestibule and at north entrance. $4 donation per CD is requested.
