From the Pastor
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Today we commemorate all the faithful departed.
We call this day “All Souls Day” and we remember those people who are now in Purgatory and
awaiting their final preparation for Heaven. These
poor souls are suffering greatly in that purgation
and our prayers and sacrifices are needed in order
to assist them. The offering of the Mass, of course
is the most powerful remedy that we can give to
them and so at every Mass we remember the faithful departed. But, today in a special way we call to
mind that great group of men, women and children
now undergoing their purgatory and we specifically offer the Masses today for their relief and for
their final salvation. We don’t hear enough about
Purgatory today. At funerals there is a tendency to
eulogize the departed and “canonize” them. It is
for our consolation but it is a disservice to the
faithful departed if in fact they are not yet in
Heaven but suffering gravely in the fires of Purgatory. It is better not to assume that they have already arrived in Heaven but rather to assume that
they are probably in Purgatory because only those
who have been totally perfected are able to enter
into Eternal Bliss with God in Heaven. It is better
to pray for the departed and offer Masses for the
relief of their suffering and to hasten the day of
their final release from Purgatory than to neglect
them assuming they have already arrived in
Heaven.
The whole month of November is dedicated to the
Holy souls. On all the days from November 1st
through November 8th inclusive, a plenary indulgence, applicable only to the Poor Souls, is granted
to those who visit a cemetery and pray, even if
only mentally, for the departed. Partial indulgences are granted to those who recite Lauds or
Vespers of the Office of the Dead, and to those
who recite the prayer: Requiem aeternam dona eis,
Domini, et lux perpetua luceat eis. Requiscan en
November 2, 2014
pace” (Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and
let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest
in peace).
I will be holding down the Fort while Father Juan
Pablo attends a special Conference in Chicago. No
Monday morning 7:00 a.m. Mass will be offered
on November 3rd or November 10th.
This coming Friday, November 7th is a special day
for the students of our Catholic Schools. There
will be a vocations’ day to be held at St. Pius X
parish to help our children begin the process of discerning whether or not God might be calling them
to enter religious life or the priesthood. Let us pray
fervently for more vocations to the priesthood and
religious life and for our seminarians and candidates who are from our Diocese.
Please welcome the Knights of Columbus for their
statewide retreat that they will be participating in
this coming Saturday, November 8th with Father
Price Oswald. The retreat will go from 9:00 a.m.
to 3:00 p.m. and will be held here at our parish. I
hope and pray that our Councils continue to see an
increase in good Catholic men who wish to do
something beautiful for God.
God bless each of you and have a good week.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
For those of Mexican heritage, November
2nd means celebration of el Dia de los Muertos, or
“the Day of the Dead.” One of the most important
days of the year for many, they join All Saints and
All Souls together, visiting the graves of babies
and children on All Saints, since they are santitos
(little saints) or angelitos (little angels). Flowers,
their favorite toys, favorite music, and so on, are
taken to them. The following day, people spend
time - some of them all day - at the cemetery with
their loved ones who have died. From the ancient
customs of the Indians the families pray, talk with
them and take them their favorite food. It is a most
solemn but joyful day. It is a day to celebrate
Christ’s victory over death: “Death, where is your
sting?” there is a mocking of death as people make
skeletons, candy that represents death and Pan de
los Muertos (bread of the dead) and consume them
in a kind of role reversal.
One of the customs is to build an altarcito
(little altar) where one places mementos and pictures of those who have died. There are also favorite foods, candles, statues or pictures of favorite
saints, books, and Bibles. Some parishes have begun to build an altarcito where all parishioners can
join in honoring the deceased. A remembrance
book can be placed to write names in. The altarcito
is traditionally left up for the month of November.

Del Párroco:
Hermanos y hermanas en Cristo,
Hoy conmemoremos todos los fieles fallecidos.
Nombramos este día el Día de los Muertos y recordemos de esas personas que ahora están en Purgatorio esperando por su preparación final para entrar
el Cielo. Estos almas están sufriendo mucho en
purgatorio y nuestras oraciones y sacrificios son
necesarios para ayudarlos. Ofreciendo la Misa claro es un remedio poderoso que podemos dar a ellos
así que recordemos de los fieles difuntos en cada
Misa. Pero hoy recordemos en una manera especial
de ese gran grupo de hombres, mujeres y niños que
ahora esta sufriendo en purgatorio y ofrecemos esta Misa específicamente por su salvación eterna.
No se habla del purgatorio suficientemente hoy en
día. Durante los ritos funerarios hay una tendencia
de elogiar y “canonizar” al fallecido. Esto es para
nuestra consolación pero de veras es un perjuicio si
todavía no están en el Cielo pero están sufriendo
gravemente en los incendios de Purgatorio. Es mejor no presumir que ya han llegado al Cielo pero
mejor presumir que probablemente están en Purgatorio como solamente aquellos que son totalmente
perfectos pueden entrar a la Bienaventuranza con
Dios en el Cielo. Es mejor orar por los fallecidos y
ofrecer Misas por el alivio de su padecimiento y
apurar la llegada de su liberación de Purgatorio en
vez de descuidarlos asumiendo que ya están en el
Cielo.
Todo el mes de noviembre es dedicado a los Santos Almas. Todos los días del 1 de noviembre al 8
de noviembre, inclusive, una indulgencia plenaria,
aplicable solamente a los Santos Almas, se concede a aquellos que visitan un cementerio y oren por
los fallecidos. Se concede indulgencias parciales a
aquellos que cantan laudes o Vísperas de la Oficina de los Muertos, y a aquellos que oran:
“Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domini, et lux perpetua luceat eis. Requiescan in pace.” (Dale Señor
el descanso eterno. Brille para él (ella) la luz perpetua. Que en paz descanse.)
Estaré cuidando la parroquia solo mientras el Padre Juan Pablo esta asistiendo a una conferencia
especial en Chicago. No habrá Misa en latín a las
7:00 am el 3 ni el 10 de noviembre.
El viernes que viene, el 7 de noviembre, será un
día especial por los estudiantes en nuestras Escuelas Católicas. Habrá un día de vocaciones en la
parroquia de San Pío X para ayudar nuestros hijos/
hijas a discernir si Dios esta llamándolos a una vida religiosa o al sacerdocio. Oremos devotamente
por más vocaciones al sacerdocio y a la vida religiosa y por nuestros seminaristas y por los candidatos de nuestra Diócesis.
Favor dar la bienvenida a los Caballeros de Colon
mientras asisten a un retiro aquí en nuestra parroquia sábado, el 8 de noviembre, con el Padre Price
Oswald. El retiro será de las 9:00 a.m a las 3:00
pm. Rezo que nuestros Concilios experimenten un
aumento de hombres católicos buenos que desean
hacer algo lindo par el Señor.
Dios bendiga cada uno de ustedes y que tengan
una semana excelente.
