Confessions 15 minutes before every Mass, Saturday 3:15-4:15pm or by appointment
AAA I want everyone who regularly attends Mass at our parish to support our Archbishop by making a gift to the Annual Archdiocesan Appeal. This annual gift certainly supports Catholic works beyond
our parish, such as our seminary, poorer parishes (including our Cathedral!), homeless and prisoner apostolates, and basic evangelization efforts from the Chancery. But more than simply giving to a need, we all have a need to give: to support our Archbishop and his offices once a year. So join me in making a gift?as much as your means allow?to our 2020 goal of $84,000. We raised this amount last year pretty quickly, and I don?t think we?ll have difficulty this year either. I?ll be joining many of you in making a gift for 1% of the total goal ($840), but I know not many can make that level of gift, what with kids in college and rents what they are in San Francisco. This weekend we will hear a brief pep talk from a layperson at the end of Mass. Latin Mass: Gregorian Chant This is the fifth in my series on the Traditional Latin Mass. I have already explained why the priest prays the entire Eucharistic Prayer in silence, and today I will explain why the Church encourages the use of Gregorian Chant, which sounds so different from guitars and pianos. When I was a boy I came bounding down the stairs one day to hear the most deeply moving music coming from Dad?s phonograph, a sound that struck me to the core. He was playing the Christmas
Chants from a Trappist Monastery, and I immediately knew?even though I had never heard Gregorian Chant before, and the words were in a language I didn?t know?that these men were singing of God. ?Gregorian Chant,? Vatican II writes, ?is specially suited to the Roman Liturgy: therefore, other things being equal, it should be given pride of place in liturgical services.? Of course you will not hear Gregorian Chant at most parishes, but why is it simply the best music for the Mass? For two reasons: first, it is
100% scriptural. The words to Gregorian Chant are not written in an ex-Jesuit?s studio, or adapted from a pop song. They are all simply texts from the Bible. So really, when we sing Gregorian chant we are singing the Bible. Second, chant is the best music for Mass because it is humble, simple, and entirely vocal. It is the simplest form of sung prayer, and its simple beauty draws people to sing it. Do you find yourself humming the Kyrie or the Sanctus even
outside of Mass? I do, because the melodies are so simple but so profound. Gregorian Chant is not the only music for Mass, but no parish should be without it. Saying Good-Bye Catalina Rausa led our Holy Rosary Sodality for many years. She lived just a few blocks from the church and would attend Mass almost every day. Many of us loved to see her at social functions, and she spent hours before the Blessed Sacrament. But a few months ago she just went missing. I was told she moved to Vacaville, without even saying good-bye. I was a bit hurt, and I will miss Catalina. Please, friends, if you are leaving us, say good-bye. I?d like to wish you farewell, and give you a final blessing! Fr. Joseph Illo www.frilloblog.com

The Sunday Scriptures by Fr. Joseph Illo Loving Enemies (Lev 19: 1-2, 17-18; 1 Cor 3: 16-23; Mt 5: 38-48). This Sunday, the last before Ash Wednesday, Jesus commands us to love our enemies. But if we love our enemies, we won?t have any? . precisely. It takes two to tango, and two to fight. If I love everyone who hates me, even though he continues to hate me, he is not essentially my enemy any longer. I have the power to neutralize hatred, or, really, God gives me that power, the power of love. St. Maximilian Kolbe would say to his fellow prisoners in Auschwitz, ?Don?t hate the guards. Don?t hate the guards? .?
