PAGE THREE
TWENTY NINETH SUNDAY OF ORDINARY TIME - The separation of church and state
plays from time to time in American culture. The framers of our Constitution were maybe not as
explicit in their wording as they could have been. They lived at a time when the fear was of an
established church or doctrine that would persecute non-adherents. Jesus is not reinforcing the
United States Constitution in today’s Gospel. Rather he is suggesting that what is essential is the
acknowledgement of God’s rightful place in our lives. We cannot exclude the Lord from our everyday lives. From politics to religion, Scripture teaches us that God alone controls events and has
the final word.
PROPER BOWS - We recite the Profession of Faith every Sunday. There is a part of the profession that states that we
are to bow while saying certain words. We are to bow while we say: by the power of the Holy Spirit He was born of the
Virgin Mary, and became man. Many of us remember that in the past we genuflected at these words. These words, and
what they mean, deserve our special reverence. It is easy to forget and form a habit of not bowing; let us show respect to
Our Lord and start a good habit.
ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT - We have adoration of the Blessed Sacrament every morning
from after the 7:30 Mass to 12:00 Noon and on First Fridays until 7:00 p.m. This is truly a great blessing for the parish.
It is necessary that there be someone in the lower chapel during these hours. The Lord on the altar should never be left
alone. To make sure that this does not happen, there will be a sign up sheet in the lower church with these hours. We
hope that there will be someone present during all these hours.
BAZAAR - Our Parish Bazaar is being held this weekend. There has been a great committee working on this event for
months. I am impressed by the dedication of the many women and men who work together to make this a very successful event. This is the largest event for our Parish and the money is used to help the Parish and the School. Without this
Bazaar, the Parish and School would be in financial difficulty. Thank you to the committee and to the many workers and
to all who attend this wonderful event. This is not only a FUND raising event but also a FUN raising event. I was told
that this is a great parish that works together and now I see that for myself. Thank You.
Join us for our annual Triduum to St. Jude Thaddeus on October 24 after the 7:30 a.m. and
Noon Masses, on Saturday, October 25, after the 7:00 a.m. Mass, and on Monday, October
27, after the 7:30 a.m. and Noon Masses. The Church honors and invokes St. Jude universally, as the patron of difficult cases, of things despaired of.
On Sunday, October 26, we will have our Marian Afternoon of Reflection, Guadeloupe in Chicopee, beginning at 2:00
p.m. in the Lower Basilica. Join us for some quiet time for prayer and reflection and bring a friend!
November 7 is the first Friday of the month, our day to pray in reparation for sin, both personal and communal. Our day
of prayer begins after the 7:30 a.m. Mass with Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament and concludes with Mass celebrated
in Polish at 7:00 p.m. Please plan to spend some time in prayer and reflection before our Eucharistic Lord.
MORNING STAR CHILDREN’S PRAYER GROUP will hold their fir st meeting at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, October 20 in the Lower Basilica. Please bring your children and spend some time in prayer and adoration.
BAPTISM - Through the Sacrament of Baptism we welcome Lyla Rose Solowinski and
Weston Owen William Estrella into the life of God and our Par ish Family and extend our congratulations to their Parents and Godparents. We pray that they continue, by
words and example, to bring up their children to know, love, and serve God.
“THANK YOU t o one and all at the Basilica, Many thanks for your love and support at the time of my dad's death, +John M
Duffy. Your cards, emails and words have been a blessing and all I can offer in return is the promise of a prayer. Peace!”
- Br Michael Duffy
COMMEMORATION OF ALL SOULS - On Sunday, November 2, a Mass will be celebrated in the
Upper Basilica at 12:00 Noon, when we will read the names of those who passed away between November 1, 2013 and November 1, 2014. Please plan to attend so that, together, we can remember our
deceased loved ones.
DURING THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER the chur ch r emember s the faithful depar ted. At St.
Stanislaus, we also display photographs of the deceased in the Upper Basilica. Please consider including photos of deceased loves ones, especially those who have died during the year. The photos should be brought to the
Parish Office before October 28. The following information needs to be included: the name of the deceased and the date
of death; the name, address, and phone number of the person to whom the photos are to be returned. Participation in the
Mass on November 2 at 12:00 Noon is a fitting way to prayerfully remember our loved ones.

MISSION SUNDAY COLLECTION - “Today vast numbers of people still do not know
Jesus Christ.” Pope Francis begins his message for this year’s celebration of World Mission Sunday with these words. But he quickly offers us the way to make a joy-filled, lifegiving difference in this regard. “World Mission Sunday is a privileged moment when the
faithful of various continents engage in prayer and concrete gestures of solidarity in support
of the young Churches in mission lands.” This weekend, as our diocesan family celebrates
this “privileged moment” let us join our brothers and sisters around the world who will
gather at the Lord’s Table to celebrate, with great joy, our common vocation as missionaries. Our prayers and concrete gestures of solidarity will help build local churches, like the
church in Mongolia, the world’s youngest Catholic Church, and churches across the globe.
Through the work of these churches, and their witness to Christ, the poor receive practical
help and experience God’s love and mercy, His hope and peace. Your financial help on World Mission Sunday, offered
in the collection for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith, will support the 1,150 young mission dioceses and
communities who await the “Good News” of Jesus as their saving hope. Pope Francis encourages us to take joyful part
in the Church’s mission to all the nations, as we live our lives grounded in love for Jesus and concern for the needs of
the most disadvantaged. May World Mission Sunday offer each one of us an opportunity to accomplish both, as we
share the joy of the Gospel and help the poor by our fervent prayer and through generous hearts!
Faithfully yours in the Lord, Most Reverend Mitchell T. Rozanski, Bishop of Springfield”

CREIGHTON MODEL SYSTEM - Are you engaged or newly married? Are you looking
for a natural way to avoid or achieve pregnancy? Are you struggling with infertility, miscarriage, PMS, endometriosis or other reproductive health issues? The Creighton Model System
can help. They help couples learn their fertility cycles so that they know on any given day
whether they are fertile or infertile. And this, without compromising the moral principles about
marriage, as taught by the Catholic Church. They can then confidently plan their family and
work with physicians trained to monitor their procreative health, using a new medical science
called Naprotechnology. Among other things, this innovative, holistic science has a 60-80%
success rate when used to treat infertility as published by the Journal of Reproductive Medicine in 1998. For more information contact Marie Anne Jacques, FCPI at (413) 244-9379 or email [email protected].
