To You From the Pastor
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
!
This Monday is Columbus Day. I hope you enjoy this long weekend with your loved ones. The
holiday commemorates the landing of Christopher Columbus in the New World on October
12, 1492. It was said that Columbus was probably not the first European explorer to reach
the Americas, having been preceded by the Norse expedition in the 11th century. But it’s
Columbus’ voyages that led to the first lasting European contact with the Americas, paving
the way to a period of European exploration and colonization that lasted for several
centuries. Columbus’ arrival to the New World, therefore, had an enormous impact in the
historical development of the modern Western world.
Christopher Columbus was born in Genoa, Italy,in the 1450’s. He was a staunch Catholic
whose expeditions and explorations were backed morally and financially by King Ferdinand
and Queen Isabella, the Catholic monarchs of Spain who were known to be great
propagators of the Catholic faith. Columbus himself saw his accomplishments primarily in
the light of spreading the Christian religion. Taking pride in Columbus’ birthplace and faith,
Italian and Catholic communities in various parts of the country organize annual religious
ceremonies and parades in his honor. In 1892, President Harrison issued a proclamation
encouraging Americans to mark the 400th anniversary of Columbus’ voyage with patriotic
festivities, writing, “On that day let the people, so far as possible, cease from toil and devote
themselves to such exercises as may best express honor to the discoverer and their
appreciation of the great achievements of the four completed centuries of American life.” In
1937, President Franklin D. Roosevelt proclaimed Columbus Day a national holiday, largely
as a result of intense lobbying by the Knights of Columbus, a very influential organization of
men that takes its name after the discoverer of the Americas.
The Knights of Columbus was founded by Father Michael J. McGivney in 1882. From its
humble beginning in New Haven, Connecticut, the K of C is now the largest Catholic
fraternal service organization in the world. The name of Columbus was intended as a
reminder to the nation’s mainly Protestant leaders, who considered the Catholic Columbus
as an American hero, yet simultaneously sought to marginalize Catholic immigrants. In
taking Columbus as their patron, the Knights were sending the message that not only could
Catholics be full members of American society, but were, in fact, instrumental in the
foundation of this great nation. We see the Knights today in their regalia with swords worn
on their side, providing dignity and beauty to the Catholic ceremonies that involve bishops
and other Church dignitaries. But behind those most colorful garbs are committed men of
faith who champion the Catholic Church through their programs of evangelization and
Catholic education, civic involvement and charitable works for those in need. The K of C has
been called "the strong right arm of the Church", and has received commendation from
popes, presidents and other world leaders for their many great accomplishments throughout
the world. Today there are more than 1.8 million members of K of C . To these men and to
you all, HAPPY COLUMBUS DAY!
Sincerely Yours In Christ,
Fr. Burt Absalon,
Pastor

“For it is in
giving that
we receive.”
On Friday night of the retreat, I actually stood up and said, “I have been
giving God the time it takes me to
drive to the tollway every day, and
He never talks to me.” Did you ever wish you could take
back something you said? This was one of those lines.
The moderator politely responded, “Maybe this weekend
He will give you some answers”.
The moderator’s name was Mike Jones and he did most
of the talking on Friday night. I should point out that I
had secured an aisle seat in case I needed to make a
quick getaway. His opening story related how his mother
had awakened him on a cold snowy winter morning to
get him to church to serve Mass. The radio was filled
with reports of the bad weather and all the school closings and the factory closings. There was a record snowfall and most of the area roads were closed as well.
Surely there would be no Mass that day and He should
just get back into that warm bed and go back to sleep.
“Bundle up”, his mother told him and soon he was following her boot prints in the snow on his way to church
to fulfill his duties as an altar boy. (Following his
mother’s footsteps. Hmmm)
Unbeknownst to him, several years earlier and two counties to the East, another young man (me) was being wakened by his mother on a cold winter morning. It was to
be his first Mass as an altar boy after more than a year
of preparing. The temperature was twenty below zero
(that’s back when we had real winters!). After a nice
warm breakfast, mom went out to start the car. Well, the
old Ford just wouldn’t start. Dad was already out on the
farm doing chores, and there was no time for battery
chargers or jumper cables. Mom finally called a neighbor
from the farm down the road who kept their car in the
garage. They came over and loaned us their car so I
could get to Mass. It was the first of many Masses my
parents would proudly watch me serve, but it is the Mass
that thirty five years later, would make Mike Jones and
Jerry Smith not just friends but fellow evangelizers. How
could I not trust a man with a story so similar to mine?
Saturday seemed like a long day with story after story
from these strangers about how God was working in
their lives. At the time the stories seemed interesting but
nothing real outstanding. I recall asking myself, “How is
this going to enhance my Spiritual journey?” I claim it
had little impact, but do you want to hear something
scary? I remember their names: Larry and Jo Ginstra, Bill
and Helen Kearney, Howard and Pat McCarthy, Dick and
Mary Lou James, Chris Korab and Mike Kubera.
Then came Sunday. Eighty-six degrees and sunny. Maybe
we will get to go home early today.
Jerry’s story continues next week. If you have a story of
conversion or discipleship you’d like to share, email it to
Anne Kumaranayagam at [email protected]. We can print your story anonymously if
you want.
