As you all know by now our beloved Pastor Emeritus, Msgr. Ignace Sadek went to rest in the Lord this past Tuesday. May he rest in Peace. Msgr. was born on December 4, 1930 and was a ordained a Priest on April 15, 1956. Before ordination he received degrees in Philosophy, Theology and French Literature and Physics and was fluent in five languages. From 1956 until 1988, he taught various subjects at three seminaries and three colleges in Lebanon and served as a pastor in a parish. In 1988 he came to the United States and became Pastor of Saint Anthony Maronite Church in Wilkes-Bare, PA, where many of his relatives reside from his home town of Zain, Batroun, Lebanon. In 1997 he was named as Rector of Our Lady of Lebanon Cathedral in Brooklyn by His Excellency Stephen Hector Doueihi. In June of 2007 Msgr. retired from active duty and went to live in Washington, D.C. While in residence at the Seminary, Msgr. Sadek assisted Msgr. Begianni with some of the duties at the Seminary especially in teaching Syriac to the seminarians as well as celebrating the Divine Liturgy, As the saying goes: "You cannot keep a good man down"! At the request of both Bishop Gregory and Bishop Robert, Msgr. travelled to various parishes in both Eparchies and assisted the clergy when needed. He served in Flint, Michigan as well as in Dayton, Ohio, where Msgr. went to sleep in the Lord. Wherever he went and served he left an everlasting impression. He will be missed but never forgotten. As your Pastor, I send my deepest sympathies to each of you at the loss of your Pastor and friend. May his memory be Eternal! Aboona James Parish Festival Our Parish Festival is just around the corner. We will have a very important meeting today following the Divine Liturgy. I am especially concerned about the early morning set up and time start. Last year our late start hurt us in many ways. Therefore, we need as many men of the parish as possible. Sponsorships We are looking for help in bringing in donations from the outside in the form of sponsorships for the Festival. We are not looking for individuals from the parish but rather outside businesses. If you can help us in this matter we would greatly appreciate it. Dabke Troupe Denise Abou Chrouch is working on the Dabke Troupe for the Festival. She definitely has a group of the children and a group from the teenage girls. If there are any young adult men and women interested please see Denise after the Divine Liturgy at the Coffee Hour. Also, if anyone has the time and the talent to help us in making costumes for the Dance Troupe or if you know where we may purchase them inexpensively please let us know. Heritage Program Congratulations to the First Communion Class. Yesterday they encountered the love and mercy of Almighty God in the Mystery of Reconciliation. Keep praying for our children.
