Stewardship

A Way of Life

This Week’s Readings

When Jesus heard about the illness of His friend

Lazarus, He responded, “This illness is not to end in

death; rather it is for God’s glory, that through it the

Son of God may be glorified.” Every aspect of our lives

- gifts as well as sufferings - can, if surrendered to

Christ, lead to blessings for ourselves and others.

Living Stewardship

We are grateful this week for all stewards in our parish

who labor not for their own benefit, but so that others

may see their good works and give glory to our Father.

Abstinence and Fasting

All Catholics who have reached their 14th

birthday are bound to abstain entirely from

meat on Ash Wednesday and all the

Fridays of Lent. All Catholics between the

ages of 18 and 59 inclusive are bound

to observe the laws of fast on Ash

Wednesday and Good Friday. Fasting

means limiting oneself to a single full meal

and avoiding food between meals.

Two other light meals, which together

do not equal a full meal, may be taken during the day.

Dynamic Catholic’s Best Lent Ever

There’s still time to make this your Best Lent Ever. St. Agnes

parishioners are invited to join Dynamic Catholic for Best Lent

Ever, a free email program designed to help you have a life

changing Lent. You will get short inspirational videos, practical

tips, and a study guide. Based on Matthew Kelly’s latest book,

Resisting Happiness, this year’s program will help you identify what stands between

you and happiness...and what to do about it. Sign up at www.bestlentever.com.

Stations

of the Cross

You are invited to join us

in the Cathedral at 7:30 p.m.

this Friday, April 7th

to remember Christ’s passion and

death by praying

the Stations of the

Cross.

As part of your Lenten prayer, fasting and almsgiving, we invite you to make

a sacrificial offering to St. Clement Catholic Church in Nuaso, in the eastern

region of Ghana. This church is in the home village of Fr. Seth Awo-Doku. It

has been under construction but is not completed due to financial difficulties.

Your donation will help complete the church, or in the very least, finance the

installation of a roof. Weekly donations can be put aside by your family and

saved until the end of Lent or you can make a donation anytime.

Envelopes are available in the Cathedral and rectory office. You may return

the envelope along with your check made payable to St. Agnes Cathedral by

dropping it in the regular collection basket any Sunday or by returning it to

the rectory office. Please be sure to write “St. Clement, Ghana” on the

memo line. Thank you for assisting us in this project.

We Are Looking for New

R.C.I.A. Team Members

We have been so blessed here at St. Agnes by the

generosity of those parishioners who have devoted

their time to being an RCIA team member. The job

description is pretty simple: show up (as often as

possible) to our weekly Sunday meetings and be open

to making new friends in Christ. You don’t need to be

a theologian or “super holy”. You do have to be

someone who is practicing the faith and who is open

to sharing your experiences of being a Catholic

Christian in a small group setting. Some team

members lead the candidates in reflecting on the

readings of Mass. Others are catechists who teach a

lesson once every few weeks. Others just share their

own journey, help with refreshments, or serve as

sponsors. Many have found it to be a rewarding

experience, not only because of the relationships that

are formed but because they get to renew their own

understanding of why they are so blessed to be

Catholic. This process is a spiritual renewal for all

involved. If you are interested in joining the team,

please call Dr. Jo-Ann Metzdorff at (516) 678-2306

for more information.

Level 2 Religious

Education

The Level 2 gathering for

Religious Education students

preparing to receive First Holy

Communion is this Thursday

afternoon, April 6th at 4:00, 5:15 or 6:30 p.m. in

the Parish Center. In order to make things easier for

the children to complete their project and learn

about what will happen on their First Communion

day, we ask that those whose last names begin with

A-F come to the 4:00 p.m. session, G-M to the

5:15 p.m. session and M-Z to the 6:30 p.m.

session. For any changes please call the Religious

Education Office at (516) 678-2306.

Joining the

Catholic Church

Each year on Holy Saturday

during the Easter Vigil,

thousands of men and women

throughout the world are

received into the Catholic

Church. Parishes welcome and prepare these new

members through the Rite of Christian Initiation of

Adults (RCIA). RCIA is a formation program to

help non-Catholics understand and experience the

teachings and practices of the Catholic Church. This

year we have seven people who will be receiving

their Baptism, Confirmation and First Eucharist at

the Easter Vigil. At the vigil of Pentecost on

June 3rd, a number of baptized Christians will be

received into the Catholic Church and some

baptized Catholics will complete their initiation by

receiving Confirmation. New inquirers are invited to

join in the process at any time to prepare to receive

their sacraments in 2018. It is usually a one year

process for those needing baptism, but it could be

shorter for those coming to the faith from another

Christian community. We meet on Sundays at the

11:00 a.m. Mass and after until about 1:15 p.m.

If you or someone you know might be interested

please call the Religious Education Office at

(516) 678-2306.

13 FIFTH SUNDAY OF LENT

Dear Friends:

It has been a great gift for me to have been named your Bishop and I am humbled and filled with

gratitude for the support and welcome that you have shared with me. During these initial visits

with our parishes, schools and ministries, I have enjoyed being able to meet so many of you and

I look forward to continuing to connect with, and serve, all of our people in the coming months

and years ahead.

What I have repeatedly heard is how much you all love and care for our church; I know that

together we will continue to dedicate our lives to Jesus and the mission of the Catholic Church.

It is during this Lenten season that we are especially reminded of Pope Francis’ words that,

“Mercy is the beating heart of the Gospel and the Church’s Mission.” Our local Catholic

Ministries Appeal is a wonderful way for each of us to hear and respond to His Holiness’

message.

With one donation, the annual Catholic Ministries Appeal allows each of us to help a wide

variety of people as it supports our church’s efforts in evangelization, liturgy and worship. It

enables the continuation and growth of our youth and young adult ministries and cares for our

poor and disadvantaged neighbors. It also supports religious education programs and the

formation and vocations for our Seminarians and our Deacons.

This Lent, I ask that you join with me in supporting our Mission of Mercy by contributing to the

Catholic Ministries Appeal. My own sincere thanks will be joined to the gratitude of more than

600,000 people who will benefit deeply for your kindness and generosity.

Thank you for all that you do and know that I look forward to walking with you on this journey

as we work together to help build God’s Kingdom in our community and beyond.

I will keep you and your family in my Masses and prayers.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Most Reverend John O. Barres

Bishop of Rockville Centre

14 April 2, 2017

Estimados amigos,

Para mí, el haber sido nombrado vuestro Obispo es un gran honor; asimismo me llena de

gratitud y humildad la manera como me han recibido y me están apoyando. Durante mis

primeras visitas a nuestras parroquias, escuelas y ministerios, he tenido el gusto de conocer a

muchos de ustedes, y con alegría les digo que espero que nos mantengamos en contacto, y en

los años venideros me pongo a vuestro servicio.

Lo que he escuchado una y otra vez, es del amor e interés que Uds. tienen por nuestra iglesia, sé

que juntos continuaremos dedicando nuestras vidas a Jesús y a la misión de la iglesia católica.

En esta cuaresma debemos especialmente recordar las palabras del Papa Francisco "La iglesia

tiene la misión de anunciar la misericordia de Dios, corazón palpitante del Evangelio.”

Nuestra Campaña de Apoyo a los Ministerios Católicos es una manera maravillosa para que

cada uno de nosotros escuche y responda al mensaje de su santidad.

La Campaña de Apoyo a los Ministerios Católicos hace posible que haya programas de

evangelización, de liturgia y de devoción; y su donativo de este año ayudará a muchas personas,

lo cual es la misión de la iglesia. Su contribución permite la continuación y crecimiento de

ministerios para nuestros niños y jóvenes, y también asiste las necesidades de las personas más

desfavorecidas de nuestra comunidad. Su contribución también sustenta los programas de

educación religiosa, de formación y de vocaciones de nuestros seminaristas y diáconos.

Durante esta cuaresma, les pido que se unan a mí, y juntos, como muestra de apoyo a la Misión

de Misericordia, hagamos un donativo a la Campaña a los Ministerios Católicos. A mi sincero

y profundo agradecimiento se suma la gratitud de más de 600,000 personas que se benefician de

su generoso aporte.

Gracias por todo lo que ustedes hacen, anhelo que juntos sigamos trabajando para ayudar a

construir el Reino de Dios tanto aquí como fuera de nuestra comunidad.

Oro por todos ustedes y los tengo presente en la celebración de la misa,

Sinceramente suyo en Cristo,

Muy Reverendo John O. Barres

Obispo de Rockville Centre
