Stewardship

A Way of Life

This Week’s Readings

“Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the

Lord!” shout the crowds in today’s Gospel. May we

always be ready to share our blessings when we are sent

in His name!

Living Stewardship

We are grateful this week for all stewards in our parish

who aspire to greatness by humbly serving the needs of

all, especially through our various parish ministries.

Diocesan

Reconciliation Monday

All churches throughout the diocese

will be open for reconciliation

Please note: there will be no

7:30 p.m. Mass at St. Agnes that evening

Abstinence and Fasting

All Catholics who have reached their

14th birthday are bound to abstain

entirely from meat on Ash

Wednesday and all the Fridays of

Lent. All Catholics between the

ages of 18 and 59 inclusive are bound to observe

the laws of fast on Ash Wednesday and Good

Friday. Fasting means limiting oneself to a single

full meal and avoiding food between meals. Two

other light meals, which together do not equal a full

meal, may be taken during the day.

Please see the Easter Schedule on

Page 5 for Good Friday Services.

Good Friday Collection

On Good Friday, our parish will take up the annual

Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land. Each

day, the news reminds us of the violence and

instability plaguing the Middle East, but we rarely

hear of the shrinking Christian community there, a

community that struggles to remain in the land of

Christ’s birth, death and resurrection. Please help

support our brothers and sisters in the Holy Land

by giving to the Good Friday Collection. This

Pontifical Collection allows the Franciscans and

others to continue caring for Christianity’s holiest

sites and for God’s people in the Holy Land. Please

be generous.

Colecta del Viernes Santo

El Viernes Santo, nuestra parroquia llevara a cabo

la colecta anual del Viernes Santo para la Tierra

Santa. Las noticias diarias nos recuerdan de la

violencia y la instabilidad que atormenta al Medio

Oriente, pero nosotros raramente escuchamos de la

disminuyente comunidad Cristiana que se encuentra

alla, una comunidad que lucha por permanecer en la

tierra del nacimiento, muerte y resurreccion de

Christo. Por favor ayude a nuestros hermanos y

hermanas en la Tierra Santa. Esta colecta pontificial

permite que los Franciscanos y otros continuen

trabajando pos los Cristianos en los lugaresmas

santos y por el pueblo de Dios en la Tierra Santa.

Por favor sea generoso con su ayuda.

From the Rector —

Sunday April 9, 2017

Dear Parish Family:

Today, Palm Sunday, begins the greatest week of our Church Year – Holy Week. On Monday from 3:00 p.m.

to 9:00 p.m. Catholic Churches in the New York metropolitan area will be offering the opportunity to receive the

Sacrament of Reconciliation. On Thursday morning, priests and the faithful will gather at 11:00 a.m. for the

Chrism Mass. Bishop Barres will bless the Oils of the Sick and Catechumen and consecrate the Chrism that will

be used by parishes in our diocese throughout the coming year. It will also be the opportunity for priests in our

diocese to renew their call to the priesthood. Everyone is welcome to attend this Mass.

With our Mass on Thursday night at 8:00 p.m. the church begins a time of prayer and fasting, a time of keeping

watch. The washing of the feet (mandatum) is a direct expression of our service to one another and the world

through the Eucharistic banquet itself. At the end of Thursday evening’s Liturgy of the Lord’s Supper, the

Eucharist is brought, in procession, to an Altar of Repose that is set up in the Msgr. Kelly Parish Center. All

those at the liturgy are invited to be part of this procession. The Center will be open until midnight for people to

spend some time in silent and prolonged adoration of the wondrous sacrament that Christ instituted on the

First Holy Thursday.

On Good Friday, the Mass is not celebrated. We gather at 3:00 p.m. (repeated again at 8:00 p.m.) to hear the

passion proclaimed, adore the cross and receive Holy Communion that was consecrated the day before.

Although the cross is carried in most of our processions at Mass, it rarely receives the attention we give it at the

Good Friday Service. We are especially mindful on this day that it was by the cross that Jesus redeemed the

world. During the 3:00 p.m. service, we will silently adore the cross that has been placed at the steps of the

sanctuary; at the end of this liturgy people will have the opportunity to individually venerate this cross.

The church gathers after sundown on Saturday (8:00 p.m.) to keep vigil and celebrate the Lord’s Resurrection.

Because it is a different liturgy from all other days during the year, the vigil liturgy is not celebrated at 5:00 p.m.

like our other vigil Masses. This service begins in total darkness with the lighting of the Easter candle and soon

darkness is no more. We sing, we pray, and we recount the stories of salvation history. New members

(who have been preparing a long time for this night) are baptized and the sacraments of initiation are celebrated.

Together we celebrate the first Eucharist of the Easter season.

There is sung Morning Prayer on Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 9:00 a.m. These liturgies last about

30 minutes and focus on the Old Testament Psalms and canticles.

I encourage you to take time this coming week to enter into the celebration of the Pascal Mystery-the dying and

rising of Jesus. It will be a week for us to grow in God’s love for us as well as our gratitude and love of God

who “emptied himself, taking the form of a slave coming in human likeness; and found human in appearance,

he humbled himself becoming obedient to death, even death on a cross” (Philippians 2:7-8).

In the Peace and Love of Christ,

Father Bill

Joining the

Catholic Church

Each year on Holy Saturday during

the Easter Vigil, thousands of men

and women throughout the world

are received into the Catholic

Church. Parishes welcome and prepare these new

members through the Rite of Christian Initiation of

Adults (RCIA). RCIA is a formation program to help

non-Catholics understand and experience the teachings

and practices of the Catholic Church. This year we

have seven people who will be receiving their Baptism,

Confirmation and First Eucharist at the Easter Vigil.

At the vigil of Pentecost on June 3rd, a number of

baptized Christians will be received into the Catholic

Church and some baptized Catholics will complete

their initiation by receiving Confirmation. New

inquirers are invited to join in the process at any time

to prepare to receive their sacraments in 2018. It is

usually a one year process for those needing baptism,

but it could be shorter for those coming to the faith

from another Christian community. We meet on

Sundays at the 11:00 a.m. Mass and after until about

1:15 p.m. If you or someone you know might be

interested please call the Religious Education Office at

(516) 678-2306.

We are Looking for New

R.C.I.A. Team Members We have been so blessed here at St. Agnes by the

generosity of those parishioners who have devoted

their time to being an RCIA team member. The job

description is pretty simple: show up (as often as

possible) to our weekly Sunday meetings and be open

to making new friends in Christ. You don’t need to be

a theologian or “super holy”. You do have to be

someone who is practicing the faith and who is open to

sharing your experiences of being a Catholic Christian

in a small group setting. Some team members lead the

candidates in reflecting on the readings of Mass.

Others are catechists who teach a lesson once every

few weeks. Others just share their own journey, help

with refreshments, or serve as sponsors. Many have

found it to be a rewarding experience, not only because

of the relationships that are formed but because they

get to renew their own understanding of why they are

so blessed to be Catholic. This process is a spiritual

renewal for all involved. If you are interested in

joining the team, please call Dr. Jo-Ann Metzdorff at

(516) 678-2306 for more information.

Faith Direct

The Lord is risen! As Christ’s disciples, we are called to

go forth and spread the good news of His Resurrection.

Our parish’s many ministries are examples of how

many of you answer that call. Our ministries require not

only gifts of time and talent, but also of financial help.

Please prayerfully consider supporting the Parish of St.

Agnes Cathedral with electronic donations through

Faith Direct. You can sign up online by visiting

www.faithdirect.net using our church code: NY239.

Thank you for your continued support of our parish

family!

Principal’s

Announcements

This is a short week

for the elementary

school as we will

dismiss on Wednesday, April 12th for Easter Recess.

The students have worked hard keeping their Lenten

promises. The Jesus Tree in the main lobby is in full

bloom with all the Scripture passages that we have

read during Lent. We participated in the parish

almsgiving project to assist Fr. Seth’s home parish

church in Ghana to build its roof. All the students in

grades 3-8 received the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

We are ready to celebrate Holy Week and are looking

forward to Easter Sunday.

I wish you a Happy Palm Sunday and blessed

Holy Week.
