Fr. O’Connor’s Words of Wisdom
Dear Parishioners:
Hennessy ~
The Pastor of the parishes to the south is gone so
now we can talk about him for a change. Some people may wonder, “Why does Father need to be
gone? Why doesn’t he stay home and tend “to the
store.” Believe me, in this day and age it is necessary
to get away once in a while even if it is to go play
cards with some friends, go skiing, hunting or whatever. Long ago, one of our retreat masters gave all of
us the warning that went something like this----“You
divide every day into three parts. Daily you can work
two parts of the day doing all the things a priest should
do but then it is necessary to take the other one-third
of the day for self. If you don’t, either you won’t be
effective in your ministry or you won’t be doing much
of anything but making a lot of dust and getting nothing
done. Worse case scenario is that you give up on the
priesthood. You can’t be on twenty four hours per day,
seven days a week. Human nature needs a break.
Even mothers and fathers find this out as well. You
need some time to relax. Some of us have even been
known to go fishing and hunting! Families even find it
refreshing to get a change of scenery.
Congratulations to those involved in all the parishes
for the great job in putting together the PROGRESSIVE DINNER. Though I did not make all the stops, it
was evident that those who did make it to all or most of
the churches found the day inspiring and enjoyed a
tremendous number of different types of food. It is
great to see all the talent that is displayed in decorating the churches. Do we thank these people
enough? Maybe next year it can be topped off with a
venison roast!
It is only about sixty-five days till spring. The winter, especially these last days have been rough with all
the cold and snow. This liturgically is kind of the
slower side of the year! Let’s plan ahead. Lent is just
around the corner so let’s stop and think about it: what
can I do personally this year that would improve over
the past? The general things - pray, fasting and almsgiving are suggested. Just giving up candy or that
extra beer is not really the essence of Lent. What
about some of the works of charity such as attention to
the homebound, helping the neighbors, spending more
time with the children with such things as preparation
for First Communion? When did you last visit or communicate with those people you may have sponsored
at baptism? Did you ever really try to spend five
minutes a day going over a different part of Our Lord’s
life and passion? Let’s try something new this Lent.
ARE THERE CHILDREN WHO COULD BENEFIT FROM A HENNESSY
CATHOLIC EDUCATION? Call school (875-7572) to schedule a
visit. Pre-school and the before/after school programs available
!!!
St Paul ~
Invitations have been mailed.
WINTERFEST IS COMING!
