During the Centenary Year (2011-2012) celebration of our
absolutely beautiful church, our Parish family came home
for Mass and we remembered one another with the flowers
that adorn the Altar, with the candles that light up the
Sanctuary, with the bread and wine that is offered, and of
course in the way par excellence, we remembered one
another in the Priest’s Mass Intention that is lifted up with
the help of all of our other remembrances! Thank you for
coming home and remembering one another! Thank you
for coming home and remembering Him Who said:
“Do this in Memory of Me!”

 A MESSAGE FROM THE PASTOR 
31 MAY 2015
THE TIME IS NEAR FOR THIS SERVANT OF THE LORD
In less than three weeks, with the help of contributions to the Catholic
Ministries Appeal (CMA) and many prayers, James Hansen/the Reverend
Mr. James Hansen, is expected to be ordained a Priest by the Most
Reverend William F. Murphy at the Cathedral of Saint Agnes in Rockville
Centre. James you may recall, spent the summer of 2014 with us at Our
Holy Redeemer, and put that summer – his last summer as a layman – at
our service.
James, like all Seminarians on Summerassignment, served in all the “usual” places
Priests-in-training would expect to serve: the
sanctuary of the church during Mass, the
classrooms of the School-building during
Vacation Bible School (VBS) (please register
your child for VBS 2015 today by calling (516) 546–1057), the bedside of the sick
in the hospital and the nursing home (if you have a request for prayers, please call
(516) 378–0665), and at the doors of our parish-buildings, securing them after a
long day of activity (if you are a Veteran, retired Firefighter or Police Officer,
please contact Father Arcoleo)! He also served in some “not-so-usual” places
where a Priest-in-training wouldn’t expect to serve: at a dock preparing for Mass
on the Waterfront, on a street standing guard over drying cement, and in a bell
tower chasing pigeons (or being chased by them).
Just as his days of service as a layman came to an end, so too are his days of service as a transitional Deacon
coming to an end; and on 20 June 2015 the Reverend Mr. James Hansen will become (God-willing) the
Reverend James Hansen. While I’m sure that he can almost smell the Sacred Chrism with which Bishop
Murphy will anoint his hands at Ordination, he must stay sober and alert because Satan, the one who
approached Jesus at the end of His “formation” in the desert, is
waiting for James at the end of his formation in the Seminary!
Please continue to support him with your participation in the
Catholic Ministries Appeal (CMA) – which has helped finance his
formation in the Seminary – and with your prayers – which have
helped him remain faithful to that formation that is preparing him
to put his life at our service; not just for a summer as a Seminarian,
but as “a Priest forever, according to the Order of Melchizadek!”
 A MESSAGE FROM THE PASTOR 
WOULD YOU HELP "GIVE US A
LIFT"
?
Shortly before Christmas 2014, Our Holy Redeemer's outdoor lift
became inoperable. And while it could be repaired (again) at a cost
of a few thousand dollars, I have decided, after going “up and down”
that route a few times before, that Our Holy Redeemer has spent
enough money on repairs and that it makes more (dollars and) sense
to replace it an estimated cost (based on the figures of three
proposals) of $40,000.00. In order to help offset that cost, the Parish
has reached out to (and is waiting to hear from) Nassau County, the
Village of Freeport, and private charitable organizations that grant
funds for services that assist the elderly and disabled. Any assistance
you can provide will literally give us a lift!
The following people have begun to lift us up:
Arnold Gallo, William Gallo, The Village of Freeport, the Friends of Angie Cullin, Alan and Cathy Richartz,
John Anzovino, Margaret Nyland, Diana Gibson, Our Holy Redeemer Parishioners who participate in
“Oceanside Christopher Federal Credit Union Parish Revenue Sharing Program”
With their help we have raised over $6,570! And with help from you, people on the lift will soon be
raised up too!

OUR HOLY REDEEMER ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH
Yes, I would like to help give Our Holy Redeemer “a LIFT!”!
Please deposit your donation with this form in the Sunday Offertory basket or drop it off at the Rectory, Monday through Saturday

NOW A WORD FROM OUR POPE
(ABOUT THE FAMILY)
POPE FRANCIS
GENERAL AUDIENCE
Paul VI Audience Hall
Wednesday, 7 January 2015
The Family - 2. The Mother
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Good morning. Today we continue with catechesis on the Church and we will reflect on Mother Church. The
Church is mother. Our Holy Mother Church.
In these days the Church’s liturgy sets before our eyes the icon of the Virgin Mary, Mother of God. The first
day of the year is the Feast of the Mother of God, followed by the Epiphany, commemorating the visit of the
Magi. The Evangelist Matthew writes: “going into the house they saw the Child with Mary His mother and
they fell down and worshiped Him” (Mt 2:11). It is the Mother who, after giving birth to Him, presents the
Son to the world. She gives us Jesus, she shows us Jesus, she lets us see Jesus.
Let us continue with the catechesis on the family, and in the family there is the mother. Every human person
owes his or her life to a mother, and almost always owes much of what follows in life, both human and
spiritual formation, to her. Yet, despite being highly lauded from a symbolic point of view — many poems,
many beautiful things said poetically of her — the mother is rarely listened to or helped in daily life, rarely
considered central to society in her role. Rather, often the readiness of mothers to make sacrifices for their
children is taken advantage of so as to “save” on social spending.
It also happens that in Christian communities the mother is not always held in the right regard, she is barely
heard. Yet the center of the life of the Church is the Mother of Jesus. Perhaps mothers, ready to sacrifice so
much for their children and often for others as well, ought to be listened to more. We should understand
more about their daily struggle to be efficient at work and attentive and affectionate in the family; we should
better grasp what they aspire to in order to express the best and most authentic fruits of their emancipation.
A mother with her children always has problems, always work. I remember there were five of us children at
home, and while one was doing one thing, the other wanted to do another, and our poor mama went back
and forth from one’s side to another, but she was happy. She gave us so much.
Mothers are the strongest antidote to the spread of self-centered individualism. “Individual” means “what
cannot be divided”. Mothers, instead, “divide” themselves, from the moment they bear a child to give him
to the world and help him grow. It is they, mothers, who most hate war, which kills their children. Many
times I have thought of those mothers who receive the letter: “I inform you that your son has fallen in
defense of his homeland...”. The poor women! How a mother suffers! It is they who testify to the beauty of
life. Archbishop Oscar Arnulfo Romero said that mothers experience a “martyrdom of motherhood”. In the
homily for the funeral of a priest assassinated by death squads, he said, recalling the Second Vatican Council:
“We must be ready to die for our faith, even if the Lord does not grant us this honour.... Giving one’s life
does not only mean being killed; giving one’s life, having the spirit of a martyr, it is in giving in duty, in
silence, in prayer, in honest fulfilment of his duty; in that silence of daily life; giving one’s life little by little.
Yes, like it is given by a mother, who without fear and with the simplicity of the martyrdom of motherhood,
conceives a child in her womb, gives birth to him, nurses him, helps them grow and cares for them with
affection. She gives her life. That’s martyrdom”. End quote. Yes, being a mother doesn’t only mean
bringing a child to the world, but it is also a life choice. What does a mother choose, what is the life choice of
a mother? The life choice of a mother is the choice to give life. And this is great, this is beautiful.
A society without mothers would be a
dehumanized society, for mothers are always,
even in the worst moments, witnesses of
tenderness, dedication and moral strength.
Mothers often pass on the deepest sense of
religious practice: in a human being’s life, the
value of faith is inscribed in the first prayers, the
first acts of devotion that a child learns. It is a
message that believing mothers are able to pass
on without much explanation: these come later,
but the seed of faith is those early precious
moments. Without mothers, not only would
there be no new faithful, but the faith would
lose a good part of its simple and profound warmth. And the Church is mother, with all of this, she is our
mother! We are not orphans, we have a mother! Our Lady, mother Church, is our mom. We are not
orphans, we are children of the Church, we are children of Our Lady, and we are children of our mothers.
Dearest mothers, thank you, thank you for what you are in your family and for what you give to the Church
and the world. And to you, beloved Church, thank you, thank you for being mother. And to you, Mary,
Mother of God, thank you for letting us see Jesus. And thank you for all the mammas present here: let us
salute them with a round of applause!
SCRIPTURE REFLECTION
“In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.” (See Matthew
28:16-20) This declaration from Matthew’s Gospel lists the three persons of the
Most Holy Trinity, the Holy Feast we celebrate today. Why is it important for us
to believe in the Trinity? Think about this: If Jesus was not God, could His
sacrifice on the cross cover the sins of all mankind? Could we be so sure and
certain of the love of God if God had sent a servant, someone He had created to
die for us? Instead, the Second Person of the Most Holy Trinity, God the Son,
came to die for us. Believing in the Trinity is not just a matter of believing a
doctrine. It is far more than that. It means that we know how God is because we
know how He acted when He took flesh and blood in the womb of the Blessed
Virgin Mary. It means that we can believe the love of God is true and real,
because instead of sending a servant to die for us, He Himself came to die for us.

NEWS FROM THE DE LA SALLE SCHOOL
(516) 379-8660
During this year that Pope Francis has designated as a time to reflect on consecrated life in our Church
we are blessed to welcome two men of faith and zeal to The De La Salle School for the final four weeks of
our academic year. These two men, Manuel Baez and David Muñoz, are in the Contact Program of the
Brothers of the Christian Schools and are living with the Brothers in their community in Freeport as they
engage in ministry at The De La Salle School.
Mr. Baez is studying physics at Manhattan College and Mr. Muñoz is pursuing a double major, Criminal Justice and
Theology, at La Salle University. As they discern whether God is calling them to serve as Brothers they will have an
experience of life in community and apostolic service in our school.
We appreciate the willingness of each these individuals to explore the option of consecrated life for himself and are glad
their witness will have a positive impact on our students. Please pray for Mr. Baez and Mr. Muñoz and their fellow
Contacts at other sites in Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C. How wonderful it would be if someday Brother
Manuel and Brother David returned to Freeport as members of the faculty at The De La Salle School!
For more information about becoming a Brother of the Christian Schools speak with Brother Thomas at The De La Salle
School or visit www.BrothersVocation.org.

FAITH AND MUSIC
Notes from our Music Director, Michael Crouse
How about another exciting Concert Series on the Mile?!
Last summer Our Holy Redeemer sponsored our first concert series at
175 Woodcleft Avenue, also home of our weekly "Mass on the
Waterfront". Under the direction of Michael Crouse, we provided six
evenings of wonderful and varied entertainment, culminating with a
sacred and Americana program given by members of our choir. We
had such artists as These Three Tenors, Andy Cooney, The Belles of
Broadway and more. Many in attendance have been asking if we are
going to do it again...and the answer is...with your help...YES!
We are asking for both your input and your donations to raise enough
funds to support this summer's series. At the end of this page there
are a few questions that will help us to plan the best evenings for these programs, so that as many of you as
possible may attend.
We also plan to create a decorative plaque with the names of each person, business, or family who donates
$100.00 dollars (or more) towards the funding of the series, which will be permanently displayed at
175 Woodcleft Avenue.
We hope many more will take advantage of these wonderful evenings of music, and we need your help in
spreading the word!
It would be of great assistance if you would take the time to answer the following questions, and then
return the questionnaire to the rectory by 31 May 2015:
1. Were you able to attend any of the concerts last summer?
If yes, how many? _________ Did you find it an enjoyable evening?
2. If no, were you unavailable on Wednesday evenings?
 Yes
 No
 Yes
 No
 Yes
 No
Check the best evening for you to attend:
 Monday
 Tuesday
 Wednesday
(We must avoid the busy weekends. For the past two years, the Freeport Art's Council has provided a
program on Thursday evenings.)
3. Would you be willing to make a donation to help support the series?
 Yes
 No
If yes, would you be willing to donate $100.00 or more, and have your name remembered
on our decorative plaque?
 Yes
 No
If yes, amount of donation: $_________________________ (Please submit by 31 May 2015. Thank you.)

The members of Freeport Girl Scout Troop 2003 in
conjunction with the Junior Catholic Daughters of the
Americas, are asking your help in providing joy to the sick
children in the pediatric unit at Winthrop Hospital. Troop
2003 is in the process of achieving their Girl Scout Silver
Award. The Silver Award is their opportunity to make a
lasting imprint on our community.
The Junior Catholic
Daughters of the Americas have partnered with Troop 2003
in an effort to continue their good deeds for our community.
There will be a donation bin in the main vestibule of the
Church to collect items, such as individual art kits, crossword
puzzles, word searches, and other forms of traditional games,
for the pediatric patients at Winthrop Hospital.
Some
children are there for lengthy periods of time and need
something to keep them occupied in order to take their minds
off of the health issues they are experiencing. Hopefully, receiving a gift will
make their day a little bit brighter.
Two members of Troop 2003 have been
hospitalized at Winthrop for extended periods of time and know the difference
that items like these can make to the children while in the hospital. They would
like to pay Winthrop back for taking such good care of them. In the upcoming
weeks, please take a moment and drop a donation in the bin to help brighten a sick
child's day!

 DEL PASTOR 
31 DE MAYO DE 2015
Por Favor, Llama a Casa
Cuarenta días después de celebrar la Resurrección del Señor, el Domingo
Pascual, celebramos su retorno a la diestra de Padre / el Jueves de Ascensión, y
comenzamos a mantener la vigilia en el Aposento Alto con María y los Apóstoles.
Diez días después de la Ascensión y cincuenta días después de la Resurrección
nuestra vigilia terminó y el Espíritu Santo, puso su sello sobre la gloriosa
temporada Pascual con nuestra celebración del Pentecostés!
¡Los cincuenta días de la Pascua ya terminaron, pero no sin dejar su marca.
Durante ese período, cuatro miembros adultos de la comunidad de Freeport
(Mary Frances Ament, Anthony Infante, Nadine
Militrano, y Ruth Ann Militrano), recibieron los
Sacramentos de Iniciación (Bautismo, Eucaristía,
y Confirmación) y fueron plenamente iniciados
en la Iglesia Católica, 16 Bebés fueron bautizados
en el Nombre del Padre, del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo, 129 niños recibieron la
Santa Comunión por primera vez (por favor oren para que se les siga trayendo a
la iglesia), y ocho Católicos Bautizados recibieron la Primera Santa Comunión y / o
su Confirmación para ser plenamente iniciados! ¡Aleluya! ¡Aleluya!
Los gloriosos días Pascuales en Freeport dejaron su marca en la Parroquia de
otras maneras. Durante ese período más de cuarenta personas con la ayuda de
Linda Siani, Carolyn, Jimenez y Carolyn Terzulli completaron una jornada de siete
semanas de discipulado llamada Siguiendo a Cristo y están a la espera de una
misión de evangelización de siete semanas llamada Compartiendo a Cristo, que la Parroquia planea ofrecer en el
Otoño. El Diácono Bruce Burnham, en conjunción con los Veteranos de la Guerra De Viet Nam presentó nuestra
VIIma Vigilia de Oración Anual para el Día del Memorial, que con la ayuda del Diácono Robert O'Donovan como
orador, ¡no solo ofreció un excelente tributo a los hombres y mujeres de nuestras Fuerzas Armadas, sino que
instruyó y animó a todos los que asistieron!
Ahora que los días Pascuales ya terminaron, podemos
preguntarnos: ¿qué vamos a hacer ahora? Ciertamente
podemos estar a la espera de la Ordenación Sacerdotal del
Rev. Señor James Hansen y de los otros cuatro Diáconos
Transicionales en la Catedral de Santa Inés el 20 de junio de
2015. Y más cerca de "casa" con la ayuda de la cubierta del
boletín de la semana pasada podemos estar a la espera de
la guía del Espíritu en la Milla Náutica durante nuestra
segunda Serie de Conciertos Veraniegos que va a comenzar
el 10 de junio y el retorno de la Misa del Muelle el 5 de Julio
de 2015. Pero, ¿qué vamos a hacer aquí en casa donde lo
que vale es venir a casa? Si se te ocurre algo, por favor
¡llama a casa!

Los Diez Mandamientos Explicados por el Catecismo
Los Diez Mandamientos Explicados por el Catecismo
2577 De esta intimidad con el Dios fiel, lento a la ira y rico en amor (cf Ex 34, 6), Moisés ha sacado la fuerza y la tenacidad de
su intercesión. No pide por él, sino por el pueblo que Dios ha reunido. Moisés intercede ya durante el combate con los
amalecitas (cf Ex 17, 8-13) o para obtener la curación de María (cf Nm 12, 13-14). Pero es sobre todo después de la apostasía
del pueblo cuando “se mantiene en la brecha” ante Dios (Sal 106, 23) para salvar al pueblo (cf Ex 32, 1-34, 9). Los
argumentos de su oración (la intercesión es también un combate misterioso) inspirarán la audacia de los grandes orantes
tanto del pueblo judío como de la Iglesia. Dios es amor, por tanto es justo y fiel; no puede contradecirse, debe acordarse de
sus acciones maravillosas, su gloria está en juego, no puede abandonar al pueblo que lleva su Nombre.

REFLEXIÓN SEMANAL
“En el nombre del Padre y del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo.” (Vea Mateo 28:16-20) Esta declaración del
Evangelio de Mateo nombra las tres personas de la Santísima Trinidad, cuya Sagrada Fiesta celebramos
hoy. ¿Por qué es importante que creamos en la Trinidad? Bueno, piense en ello. Si Jesús no era Dios,
¿hubiera su sacrificio en la cruz podido cubrir los pecados de toda la humanidad? ¿Podríamos estar tan
seguros del amor de Dios, si Dios hubiera enviado a un siervo, a alguien que Él hubiera creado a morir
por nosotros? En vez de eso, la Segunda Persona de la Santísima Trinidad, Dios el Hijo, vino a morir por
nosotros. Creer en la Trinidad no es solo cuestión de creer en una doctrina. Es mucho más que eso.
Significa que sabemos cómo Dios es por sabemos como Él obró cuando se convirtió en carne y sangre
en el vientre de la Santísima Virgen María. Significa que podemos creer que el amor de Dios es cierto y verdadero,
porque en vez de enviar a un siervo a morir, Él mismo vino a morir por nosotros.

Los miembros de la Tropa 2003 de Girl Scouts de
Freeport junto con las Hijas Católicas de las Américas
están pidiendo su ayuda para proveer gozo a los niños
enfermos de la Unidad Pediátrica del Hospital Winthrop. La
Tropa 2003 está en camino de alcanzar su Premio de Plata
de las Girl Scouts. El Premio de Plata es su oportunidad de
dejar una impresión duradera en nuestra comunidad.
Las
Hijas Católicas Juveniles se han asociado con la Tropa 2003
en un esfuerzo por continuar sus buenas obras en nuestra
comunidad. Va a ver una cesta para donaciones en el vestíbulo
principal de la Iglesia a fin de recoger artículos como juegos
de artes, crucigramas, búsqueda de palabras, y otras formas
tradicionales de juegos para los pacientes en la sala pediátrica
de pacientes del Hospital Winthrop. Algunos niños pasan allí
períodos extensos y necesitan algo que los mantenga ocupados
a fin de apartar sus mentes de las dificultades de salud que
están experimentando. Esperamos que el recibir un regalo les haga su día un poco
más brillante.
Dos miembros de la Tropa 2003 estuvieron hospitalizados en
Winthrop por largos períodos de tiempo y saben la diferencia que estos artículos
pueden hacer para lo niños que se encuentran en el hospital. A ellas les gustaría
pagar de vuelta a Winthrop por lo bien que fueron cuidadas.
¡En las semanas
entrantes, por favor tome un momento para dejar una donación en la cesta y de ese
modo alegrarle el día a un niño!
¡Gracias!
FE Y MÚSICA
Notas de nuestro Director de Música, Michael Crouse
¿Qué le parece otra excitante Serie de Conciertos en la Milla?
El verano pasado Nuestro Santo Redentor patrocinó nuestra primera
serie de conciertos en el 175 de la Avenida Woodcleft, donde también
se celebra nuestra “Misa Semanal en el Muelle.” Bajo la dirección de
Michael Crouse, nuestro director de música, ofrecimos seis noches
maravillosas de entretenimiento que culminaron con un programa de
música sagrada y americana cantada por el coro de la iglesia. Entre los
artistas que participaron estuvieron, Estos Tres Tenores, Andy Cooney,
las Bellas de Broadway y otros. Muchos de los que asistieron han
estado preguntando si vamos a tener los conciertos otra vez…. y la
respuesta es ….. con la ayuda de ustedes ¡Sí!
Les estamos pidiendo su opinión y donaciones a fin de recaudar suficientes fondos para apoyar la serie de
este verano. Al pie de la página tenemos unas cuantas preguntas que nos ayudarían a programar las
mejores noches para estos programas a fin de que la mayoría de ustedes pueda asistir.
También planeamos crear una placa decorativa con los nombres de cada persona, negociante o familia que
done $100.00 (o más) para costear la serie, que se desplegará permanentemente en el 175 de la Avenida
Woodcleft.
¡Esperamos que muchos más de ustedes se aprovechen de estas noches maravillosas de música, y
necesitamos su ayuda para propagar la noticia!
Sería muy útil el que ustedes tomaran tiempo para responder a las siguientes preguntas y entonces
devolvieran el cuestionario a la Rectoría para el 31 de mayo de 2015:
1. ¿Pudieron ustedes asistir a los conciertos el verano pasado?
 Sí
 No
Si sí, ¿cuántas veces? _________ ¿disfrutaron de ellos?
 Sí
 No
2. Si no, ¿no estaban ustedes libres los miércoles por la noche?
 Sí
 No
Marque su mejor noche para asistir:
 Lunes
 Martes
 Miércoles
(No podemos usar los fines de semana. Durante los dos últimos años el Concilio de Arte de Freeport ha
presentado un programa los jueves por la noche.)
3. ¿Estaría dispuesto a hacer una ofrenda para apoyar la serie?
 Sí
 No
Si sí, ¿donaría $100.00 o más para tener su nombre en nuestra placa decorativa?
 Sí
 No
Si sí, cantidad de la ofrenda: $___________________ (Favor someter para el 31 de mayo 2015. Gracias.)
4. Por favor suministre cualquier otra sugerencia que tenga respecto a la serie de conciertos:___________

THE FATHER,
THE SON, AND
THE HOLY SPIRIT
The eleven disciples went to
Galilee, to the mountain to
which Jesus had ordered them.
When they all saw Him, they
worshiped, but they doubted.
Then Jesus approached and said
to them, “All power in Heaven
and on earth has been given to
Me. Go, therefore, and make
disciples of all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of
the Holy Spirit, teaching them
to observe all that I have
commanded you. And behold, I
am with you always, until the
end of the age.”
Saint Matthew XXVIII: 16-20
