PRAY FOR HIM…
This Friday, transitional Deacon Christopher Beran will be ordained a priest for the Diocese of Erie, Pennsylvania. He was baptized here at St. Martin de Porres Church on June 12, 1988. His family eventually moved to Sterling Heights, and Deacon Chris eventually found himself studying and preparing himself for priestly service in Erie. It is a tradition that a newly-ordained priest celebrates Masses of Thanksgiving at the parishes that have a significant meaning in his life. Deacon Chris asked if he could celebrate a Mass of Thanksgiving here at St. Martin de Porres on Monday, June 12, 2023 at 9:30 AM. This will mark the 35th anniversary of his baptism in the church where his faith journey began!
HAPPY FEAST OF PENTECOST… COME, HOLY SPIRIT!...
Sunday, May 28, the Universal Church shouts with joy at the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and upon the twelve apostles (including the spot vacated by Judas and filled by St. Matthias). What a transformation, to go from being scared and passive in the Upper Room, to bursting doors open and shouting out boldly the Good News of the life, death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ! When we celebrate and receive the Sacraments, that same Holy Spirit is unleashed in you and me! Boldly share the flame of Faith with others and with our sin-sick world! With today’s Feast, the Easter Season for 2023 comes to an end. Ordinary Time resumes next week. Ordinary Time is far from ordinary – each Sunday for the next several weeks (until Advent) celebrates the fullness of the mysteries of our Faith – and that is
EXTRAORDINARY! IS IT OR ISN’T IT?…
Although government officials and some medical professionals have declared that the COVID-19 Pandemic is over, it does not mean that the disease has been eradicated. The latest medical reports say that there are still 10,000 new cases in our country every week. Although we may no longer need to have “an overabundance of caution,” we should still be cautious.
SHOULD WE OR SHOULDN’T WE?… While we may be relaxing or eliminating some of the precautions, we will continue to enforce some of them here at Mass at St. Martin de Porres. We have a higher population of worshippers who are over 65, have compromised health situations, and/or prefer to keep a safe distance from others while at Mass.
ARE WE OR AREN’T WE?...
The following precautions will remain in place at Mass: We will keep the taped off areas for those who prefer distance seating. The wearing of masks is now optional. Because most folks do not want to bring up the bread and wine at the Offertory when they are asked and invited, the Offertory Procession of Gifts is still eliminated. An usher will bring up the collection basket. The Sign of Peace will be optional and will not be introduced. Share a sign that is comfortable for you, even if it does not involve human contact. While the wearing of masks will be optional, all Ministers of Holy Communion must wear masks when distributing Communion. Only the Eucharistic hosts will be consecrated and distributed. Even before COVID, fewer people availed themselves of the Precious Blood, and we don’t have enough Ministers of Holy Communion to distribute Holy Communion under both species.
Fr. Nick,
Your Grateful Pastor
