Together we celebrate the liturgy in prayer and sacrament; we educate our
children and adults in the faith; we support and reach out to those in need.
We believe the Holy Spirit is calling us to continue: to love one another as
Jesus loves us, to share the word of God and to serve both within and beyond
our Parish family.

“But whoever lives the truth comes to the light.”
Think about the sun for a moment. The light from this
gigantic celestial orb provides so many things for us. Most
obviously, it provides brightness by which we see, by
which we work, play, and navigate the world around us.
It also provides the warmth necessary for our comfort and
our survival. The sun sustains plant life, which in turn sustains our lives as well. It helps us mark the passing of time,
the change of seasons, and the rhythm of every day. The
sun is a tremendous gift from God, and our lives—just like
our planet—quite literally revolve around it.
BAPTISMS
Aidan Charles Cummings
Joseph Max DeAngelis
Juliet Oliva Giovacco
Miabella Nichole Cooper
Connie Ruconich
When Jesus uses the image of light in today’s Gospel, it may help us to understand him if we think of the
sun. Just as this magnificent star nourishes our physical
existence, so too Jesus, “the light [who] came into the
world,” nourishes our spiritual existence. He gives us the
“brightness” to see the right choices in front of us through
his teaching and his example. He warms our hearts
through his mercy and forgiveness, changing our coldhearted sinfulness into burning charity. He sustains our
spiritual lives by offering us the gift of salvation: eternal
life in heaven that never sees death. And he helps us mark
the passing of time as we grow ever closer to him, entering more and more deeply into the knowledge and love of
our Lord.
But of course, just as we are free to hide in a dark
room with the shades drawn, so too we are free to
“shade” ourselves from the light of Christ: “for everyone
who does wicked things hates the light.” To choose wickedness is to cut ourselves off not just from light, but from
life. May we choose instead to stay always in the light of
the Son.

Dear Parishioners,
On March 1st, a portion of the Pastoral Transition Team Report identifying communication concerns was published in the Parish Bulletin and I would like to follow-up on specific issues related to the Finance Committee.
I assure all parishioners that an annual Stewardship Report, which discloses revenues and expenditures, has
been distributed at all Masses following the end of each fiscal year. This has been done every year for at least twenty-four
years. When appropriate, a footnote has been included that cash deficits were funded using Parish reserves. In addition,
the operations and finances of our Parish have been audited by the Diocese of Rockville Centre, most recently in May
2014. There have been no significant findings and all audit comments have been addressed by the Pastor and Finance
Committee.
The Finance Committee serves in an advisory capacity and is in the process of finding new and more effective
ways to communicate financial information to all parishioners. The management of parish funds, including publishing of
the Stewardship Report, is solely my responsibility as pastor. It is not the responsibility of the Finance Committee or any
of its members.
Fr. Joe
__________________________________________________________________________________________
I am publishing a section of the Pastoral Transition Team Report each week. Some items have already been addressed or are being addressed. However, the report is being published as it was submitted. Going forward, we will publish progress reports. Two weeks ago we looked at Communication Concerns. The next section of the Pastoral Transition
Team Report is Summary Part 1:
Transition Team Final Report
December 2014
Summary Part 1: The Transition Team thoroughly reviewed the responses from our parishioners, carefully reflecting on each concern and recommendation. We have compiled this report in consideration of all of the responses but have tried to represent the recurrent themes that were expressed. Overall, the parishioners are seeking a more welcoming, inclusive parish with opportunities for
spiritual growth and development.
* The homilies offered at Mass should be a meaningful source of reflection and spiritual growth. They should be a reasonable length
(8-10 minutes for the most part), intelligible, and help the parishioners understand the Word of God as it
relates to their daily lives.
* The sound system needs to be reviewed, evaluated, and improved. The sound produced throughout the church is uneven, adding
to the difficulty of hearing the priest during Mass.
* A Social Committee should be established to enhance the welcoming aspect of our parish and to plan events that are inclusive.
The parish should offer more socialization opportunities for families, singles, youth, middle aged, and seniors. Our church should be
a comfortable meeting place, a loving community where people can enjoy each other's company and also have fun.
* We need to provide a Spanish Mass to meet the needs of our Hispanic Community.
* Special Needs Faith Formation needs to be developed further with the possibility of a Special Needs Mass on a monthly basis, and
perhaps development of a Respite program.
* Parishioners are seeking better communication between the priests, the people, and the ministries. There should be openness with
the Finance Committee, the Pastoral Council, and the parishioners. The clerical staff should be approachable and responsive.
Thanks for your continuing support of the Catholic Ministries Appeal.

Trinity Regional School
In the fall the fifth grade students at Trinity Regional School participated in The Stock Market Game. They were put in groups of two to four
students. Using The Stock Market Game, the children explored the fundamentals of personal finance and investing, while practicing content and
skills in math, English Language Arts, economics, social studies, and other subjects. Working together to build and manage an investment portfolio in a real-world and dynamic marketplace. They analyzed and made decisions, explored the consequences of their choices, and found new
ways to strategize for success.The students learned critical problem solving and money management skills while having lots of fun. The Stock
Market Game is a national competition that is broken down into regions. Trinity Regional School had second and third place winning teams in
The Stock Market Game. The children worked very hard and strategized to achieve this goal.
The Stock Market Game is part of the SIFMA Foundation, which also hosts a writing competition for the children to participate
in. All 46 fifth grade students participated in the InvestWrite competition. InvestWrite challenges fourth through twelfth grade
students to analyze an investment scenario and recommend portfolio allocations targeting short - and long - term financial
goals. The competition serves a culminating activity for nearly 600,000 students nationwide who compete in the The Stock Market Game program each year. At Trinity Regional School we have a student that won third place in the national competition and
first place in the state competition. Jack Nixon is among 20,000 students nationwide who take the InvestWrite challenge each
year. It takes years to build up the financial savvy to navigate the markets, but Jack Nixon is decades ahead of the game. We are
very proud of Jack and all the fifth grade students at Trinity Regional School for their hard work and stepping up to the challenge.

WHILE fasting with the body, brothers and sisters, let us also fast in spirit. Let us loose every
bond of iniquity; let us undo the knots of every
contract made by violence; let us tear up all unjust agreements; let us give bread to the hungry
and welcome to our house the poor who have no
roof to cover them, that we may receive mercy
from Christ our God.
--Byzantine Vespers
Lenten Retreat
At St. Anthony’s
Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday March 23, 24, 25 –
DO GOOD, and evil will not overtake you.
Prayer with fasting is good, but better than both
is almsgiving with righteousness. A little with
righteousness is better than wealth with wrongdoing. It is better to give alms than to lay up gold.
For almsgiving saves you from death and purges
away every sin.
—Tobit 12:8-10
9 AM and 7:30 PM
Fr. Sean Davidson, Director
Fr. Sean is a member of the Missionaries of the Most Holy Eucharist, a
new clerical association
based in southeast France.
Born in London, England he spent much of his childhood and youth in
Ireland. He entered the priesthood in 2004 and this call was accompanied by a strong desire to make
Jesus in the Eucharist known and loved. He made the decision to go to
France to assist
in establishing a missionary community of priests dedicated to this
end.
He was ordained a priest on the feast of Corpus Christi in 2011 in
France.
-11-
THEREFORE, as we are about to celebrate that
most eminent of all mysteries, in which the blood
of Jesus Christ has wiped away all sins, let us first
of all prepare to offer the sacrifice of mercy, so
that what we have been given by God we may
ourselves show to those who have trespassed
against us.
We must show more liberal bounty toward the
poor and those who suffer from all kinds of affliction in order that many voices may give thanks to
God and that the relief of those in need may support our fasts. Indeed, no other devotion of the
faithful is more pleasing to the Lord than that
which is directed toward the poor.
— St. Leo, Fifth Century
p
rayer consists of attention. It is
the orientation of all
attention of which the soul is
capable toward God. The quality of the attention counts for much in
the quality of prayer. Warmth of heart
cannot make up for it. The highest part
of the attention only makes contact
with God when prayer is intense and
pure enough for such a contact to be
established; but the whole attention is
turned toward God.
—Simone Weil
WHEN we pray, we are not to pray
for ourselves alone. We do not say,
“My Father, who art in heaven” or,
“Give me this day my daily bread”; we
do not ask for own trespasses alone to
be forgiven; and when we pray that we
may be delivered from evil, are not
praying only for ourselves either.
Our prayer is for the general
Good, for the common good.
When we pray, we do not pray for
our own single selves; we pray for
all God’s people, because they
we are one.
— Cyprian of Carthage, Third Century
THERE are as many ways to pray as
there are moments in life. Sometimes we
seek out a quiet spot and want to be
alone, sometimes we look for a friend
and want to be together. Sometimes we
like a book, sometimes we prefer music.
Sometimes we want to sing out with
hundreds, sometimes only whisper with
a few. Sometimes we want to say it with
words, sometimes in deep silence. In
these moments, we gradually make our
lives more of a prayer as we open our
hands to be led by God even to places
we would rather not go.
— Henri Nouwen
Lenten Regulations
Fast and Abstinence: All Catholics who have reached their fourteenth year are bound to abstain entirely from meat on Ash
Wednesday and all the Fridays of Lent. All Catholics between the
ages of eighteen and fifty-nine inclusive are also bound to observe
the law of fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday. This 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.
Sacrament of Reconciliation
During the season of Lent, we prepare to celebrate Our Lord’s resurrection. To put the past behind us and begin a new life, we are called to be
reconciled with one another and with God. The Sacrament of Reconciliation is an excellent way to respond to God’s call.
Confessions are every Saturday from
4 to 4:45 P.M.
On the Special Diocesan Day of Reconciliation
Monday, March 30th 3 P.M. to 9 P.M.
Monday, March 30th at 7 P.M.
Special Penance Service
and at other scheduled times during Holy Week

Celebrating Lenten
Liturgies at
St. Anthony of Padua
Parish
At St. Anthony’s Parish, we observe the Lenten
fast as a preparation for the celebration of Easter
and for the renewal of our Baptismal promises.
Both the prayer environment in the church and
some of the elements of our liturgy are different
than they are during the rest of the church year.
The simplicity of our prayer environment helps
us to focus on what is essential in the presence of
Christ in the people that are gathered, in the
Word that is proclaimed and the Eucharist that is
shared. You will also notice that there are no flowers in the church, another reminder of the simplicity of the season.
The dark purple curtains and vestments call us
to that simple, yet beautiful posture of prayer,
fasting and almsgiving.
Instead of singing “Alleluia” to announce the
Gospel, we will sing instead another verse which
praises our Lord for His saving words.
On Easter, our voices will ring out
again”Alleluia!”

Join us to cheer on fellow parishioners in this exciting event!
St. Anthony’s will see the blossoming of hidden talent (or incredible chutzpah) in our parish! Keep your calendar free for June 6th to
cheer on your favorite couple in a takeoff of the TV show.This fundraiser will showcase dancers and a competition for
the infamous MIRROR BALL TROPHY!
Cast to be revealed in a future bulletin!
As on the TV show, there will be a panel of qualified judges, but you know the most important judges are the audience! So come—enjoy,
be inspired, VOTE, & maybe even throw a tomato. We promise you fun, surprises & laughs! Tickets on sale NOW at the rectory office!
***Looking for a volunteer to video this event. If interested please call Debbie at the rectory office 261-1077 ext. 200
Tickets now on sale at the rectory office
Monday through Friday 9-5 only
Now, the VOTING
…...though hootin’ and hollerin’ is a time-honored way of voting, this is being held in the church. You
could vote with a tomato, but confession immediately afterwards would be mandatory. And we don’t
have a bank of 1-900 numbers to call in our votes (besides, our receptionists would go berserk).
So, we’ll be using the old-fashioned but reliable ticket system. Each ticket will equal one vote and cost
one dollar. A civilized and Catholic way to support the time and talent of our contestants!
The judges’ score will be added to the audience’s
votes, which are one dollar per vote.
