Maybe that is why it does not seem to be the time for remembering the dead, since the world seems so full of life. Now that Halloween is over, and we have come together to celebrate the Feast days of All Saints and All Souls this weekend, it seems appropriate in a way that the outside world would point to the joy of life, since we believe that our physical deaths are not the end, but only a step through the veil. There have been three significant deaths for me this year, beginning in March with Fr. Ed’s passing. Unfortunately, I only had a limited time to live with Msgr. Donnelly, less than a year, although I had known him since my time as a deacon here at Holy Name, and had the pleasure of talking with him at many diocesan events, before returning here last year. The conversations we had were interesting, informative and joyful; the last part being the great lesson that I learned from Fr. Ed, how to continue being joyful in Christ, even in the face of the world’s insanity. In August, my friend Kathleen died. Once again, I learned a lot from her over the years, but the friendship that we shared was the greatest gift we could give to each other. Finally, on Friday before this past, one of the great characters of the Catholic Church went home to God; Msgr. Lorenzo Albacete, a great priest, a brilliant mind, someone who loved living, and a mentor to myself and numerous others, finally succumbed to his illnesses. At his Mass of transferal, at St. Mary’s in Manhattan, Fr. Rich Veras reminded us of Msgr. Albacete’s desire for God and his desire to have everything about ourselves redeemed by the promise of Christ, using pizza as an example. Recalling a theological discussion Albacete was having with someone on the beatific vision, Albacete said, “But what if I want pizza?” The response was that the essence of the pizza would be caught up in the Glory of God, that the essence of what makes the pizza good would be present in the encounter with the infinite. Monsignor’s response was, “But what if I want the essence of the pizza in the pizza?” The Beatific Vision, envisioned by this Physicist turned priest, consisted of the redemption of everything that exists, even though the redemption of pizza as pizza is only an example, the reality of the promise of the Resurrection is the redemption of every part of the self. Every part of my person, my personality, everything that makes me who I am is redeemed by God; it is not my essence that floats around the Infinite, like some billowy smoke pouring out of God’s presence, it will be my whole person, transformed in the light of the Resurrection. So as I celebrate these days of remembrance, in their spectacularly vibrant and alive essence, I remember three friends, and many other friends and loved ones who have gone before me, I call to mind the memories I have of them. Conversations and shared jokes, music playing in the houses at night and the sound of waterfalls in the daytime, the look of amusement on the face of a loving genius as he waits for you to understand something so close at hand. While I have the memories of times spent together, and even the writings of one of the great minds of our age, I look forward to the day when I will see these friends again. Not as some abstract essence of their former selves, not as the Buddhists and Brahmin believe, as parts of the great whole of the Cosmos, but as they truly are, beautifully whole and entire, and redeemed by God the Father, through the Resurrection of His Son. Pax, Fr. Henry 5 November 2, 2014 The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed 6 On Saturday, November 1, Bishop Andrzej Zglejszewski, confirmed 110 of our young people.

As far back as the 6 th century we have offered prayer, good works and Masses to help these souls atone for past sins and transgressions which deprive them of the Beatific Vision. Today we ask in the Mass' Collects that God “Listen kindly to our prayer, and…look mercifully on your departed servants…with the mortality of this life overcome, they may gaze eternally on you, their Creator and Redeemer”. The Collect prayer is not just a call for us to remember the departed but reminds us of our own mortality and need for prayer. In our first reading Wisdom’s author writes how the souls of the just were tried in the furnace of life’s struggles and sufferings and with God’s grace will lead to opportunities for building virtue, integrity, and a stronger life of faith. It tells us that “those who trust in God shall understand truth, and the faithful shall abide in his love: because grace and mercy are with his holy ones” (Wis 3:9). Calling to mind those who have gone before us marked by the sign of water and the Spirit in baptism and nourished by the Body and Blood of Wisdom itself will come to understand that “his care is with his elect” (Wis 3.9). Our second reading from St Paul’s letter to the church at Rome is a powerful exposition of the doctrine of the supremacy of Christ and our faith in Him as our source of salvation. This does not mean that Christians are free from any responsibility to serve our neighbors. Instead St Paul writes that “we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death…so if we have grown in union with him through a death like his, we shall also be united with him in a resurrection like his” (Rom 6:3,5). St Paul is conveying to the Romans that we died twice and are born twice. We are born in the natural order and died in the waters of baptism and then we died in the natural order and “by the glory of the Father, we too might live in newness of life” (Rom 6:4). This promise of salvation awaits all souls that include good works and a faith grounded in Christ. The Gospel of John for All Souls’ Day tells us that Jesus, “will not reject anyone the Father gives me…but that I should raise it on the last day”(Jn 6:37, 39). The Father sends Jesus as a visible sign of his love, to feed us as the “bread of life come down from heaven” (Jn6:38) with his wisdom, teaching and healing. He also says, that it is “the will of my Father, that everyone who sees and believes in the Son…I shall raise him on the last day” (Jn6:40). The souls for whom we pray for this Sunday and everyday share an extraordinary promise from God. Jesus who came to do the will of the Father shares His baptism with us, invites us to His Eucharistic celebration, ask us to pray as He did and to imitate Him in doing good works. So we ask Jesus to intercede for us that through the mercy of God the souls of all the faithfully departed shall rest in peace. Amen. Yours in Christ, Deacon Richard Raad Something good is cooking at Holy Name of Mary! Love to bake? Love to share? This may be for you. The people who receive food every month from Parish Outreach-St. Vincent DePaul Society are ever so grateful for the home baked cookies donated by our parishioners every Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Many of those recipients cannot bake for themselves. In order to extend, this much appreciated act of personal generosity throughout the year, a parish group was formed. The devoted members of the “Bakers Bunch” have been supplying the Parish food pantry with home baked goods throughout the year. Participation in this team involves baking a simple item at your own pace---once a month, once every two months, twice a month----whatever fits your schedule. Items may be cookies, muffins, bundt/loaf cake, quick bread, any item that does not need refrigeration. There are 95 families who receive some food every month so any contribution would help. Groups are also invited to participate. If you are interested or would like more information please call Felicia Lotti at 516-812-9110. You may also fill out the information below and return it to Parish Outreach.

Fernando Echeverri www.hnom.org/latino.htm CONMEMORACIÓN DE LOS FIELES DIFUNTOS. Esta fiesta responde a una larga tradición de fe en la Iglesia: orar por aquellos fieles que han acabado su vida terrena y que se encuentran aún en estado de purificación en el purgatorio. El catecismo también nos recuerda que los que mueren en la gracia y Amistad de Dios pero no perfectamente purificados, pasan después de su muerte por un proceso de purificación para obtener la completa hermosura de su alma. En este día dice el Martirologio Romano: La conmemoración de todos los fieles difuntos, en la cual nuestra común y piadosa Madre la Iglesia, después de haber honrado con amor y dignidad a sus hijos, que tiene ya gozando en el cielo, se esfuerza por ayudar con poderosos sufragios cerca de Cristo su Esposo, a todos los que gimen en el purgatorio; a fin de que cuanto antes se sumen a la milicia de los moradores de la ciudad celestial. En ninguna parte como aquí anuncia la Liturgia de una manera tan explícita la misteriosa conjunción que estrecha a la Iglesia triunfante con la militante y la purgante, y nunca tampoco aparece más claro el doble deber de caridad y de justicia que fluye naturalmente de su misma incorporación al cuerpo místico de Cristo. sabemos que en virtud del dogma de fe de la comunión de los fieles difuntos, los méritos y sufragios de los unos vienen a ser también de los demás, en virtud de una comunidad de bienes espirituales, de manera que sin mermar los derechos de la divina justicia que con todo rigor se nos aplicará al final de nuestra vidas, la Iglesia puede unir aquí su oración con la del cielo, y Suplicar por lo que falta a las almas del purgatorio ofreciendo a Dios por ellas, mediante la Santa Misa, las indulgencias, los sacrificios de sus hijos y los méritos sobrenaturales de la Pasión de Cristo. De ahí que la Liturgia ha sido siempre, el medio empleado por la Iglesia para practicar con los fieles difuntos el deber de la caridad, que nos manda a atender las necesidades del prójimo, como si fueran nuestras, en virtud siempre de ese lazo sobrenatural y apretadisimo que une en Jesus al cielo con la tierra y el purgatorio. La Solemne conmemoración de todos los fieles difuntos se debe a San Odilón, cuarto abad del célebre monasterio benedictino de Cluny. El fue quien en 998 y mandó celebrarla un dia como hoy (Nov, dos), la influencia de aquella ilustre y poderosa congregación, hizo se adoptara bien pronto este uso en todo el orbe Cristiano, ya que ese día fuese en algunas partes fiesta de guardar. En España, Portugal y América del Sur, que de ella dependían, Benedicto XIV, habia concedido celebrar tres Misas el dos de Nov, y Benedicto XV, el 10 de Agosto de 1915, autorizó lo mismo a todos lo Sacerdotes del mundo Católico.. “AQUELLOS QUE NOS HAN DEJADO, NO ESTÁN AUSENTES, SINO INVISIBLES. PORQUE TIENEN SUS OJOS LLENOS DE GLORIA, FIJOS EN LOS NUESTRO LLENOS DE LÁGRIMAS”…(SAN AGUSTIN). 8 November 2, 2014 The Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed COMMUNITY INFORMATION CATHOLIC ENGAGED ENCOUNTER Preparing for marriage?
