The purpose of the Salvatorian is to strengthen, to defend and to spread the Catholic faith everywhere insofar as this is committed to it by Divine Providence. Therefore, by exercising this ecclesiastical teaching function in word and writing, it intends to achieve the end that all people might know more and more the one true God and Him whom He sent, Jesus Christ.

Archdiocese of Newark Announces Phase 3 Directives Allowing Public Sunday Masses with

Restrictions Starting June 21

Maximum number of participants for public Masses remains at 25% of the church’s capacity

Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin, C.Ss.R, Archbishop of Newark, announced this week that Phase Three directives have been approved as part of the ongo-ing, three-phase reopening process for parishes throughout the Archdiocese.

Beginning on June 21, 2020, Archdiocesan parish-es, which have already been reopened for weekday Masses, funerals, baptisms and weddings, will now be reopened for the celebration of public Sunday Masses. This includes Vigil Masses starting on Saturday, June 20.

Phase Three of the Directives for Re-Opening Churches is contingent upon any further develop-ments or guidance from health and state public offi-cials. As part of Phase Three, the following proto-cols will be observed:

• Based on state public official guidelines, the maximum number of participants for public Masses, Funerals, Baptisms, and Weddings re-mains at 25% of the church’s capacity or 50 par-ticipants in total, whichever number is lower.

• All the directives on social distancing, wearing of masks, and sanitizing from Phase One and Phase Two remain in force.

• Cardinal Tobin continues to dispense the faithful from the obligation to attend Mass on Sundays and Holy Days.

• Parishes will continue to livestream Mass so that those unable to attend may maintain a spir-itual connection with their local parish. Although directives for reopening have been provided to all parishes, it continues to remain the responsibility and decision of each pastor to determine the process and timing for safe reo-pening of their individual parish.

The Archdiocese will continue to monitor the expert guidance of public health officials and federal and state public officials, who have cautioned not to

rush into reopening churches to the faithful before manageable safety protocols can be put in place. The Archdiocese remains committed to the health and well-being of its clergy and staff, the faithful,

and the public.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church will be open

ARCHDIOCESE OF NEWARK LAUNCHES UNPRECEDENTED FUNDRAISING EFFORT IN SUPPORT OF COMMUNITY PARISHES

During Pandemic, Cardinal Tobin Encourages Parishioners to Aid Local Churches and Ministries

Cardinal Joseph W. Tobin, C.Ss.R, Archbishop of New-ark, has announced an unprecedented fundraising initia-tive specifically aimed at supporting continued outreach and archdiocesan parish communities during the corona-virus (COVID-19) pandemic. The effort, coordinated with GoFundMe, a global online fundraising platform, will enable parishioners to provide direct support to local churches throughout this challeng-ing time. A dedicated website, at www.rcan.org/parishsupport, has been established for this program.

“The first place people often go in time of need is the lo-cal parish,” said Cardinal Tobin. “Under the current con-ditions brought on by the coronavirus epidemic, parishes are limited in the services they can offer to the faithful and those in need. Please consider a tax-deductible contri-bution to our special Parishes in Need fund, which will be used to support those communities struggling to pay their employees, conduct outreach, and cover church utility bills through this crisis.” Catholic parishes rely on weekly contributions from pa-rishioners, known as the offertory collection, to support the work of each community, including staff wages and daily operations. In addition to Masses, many parishes provide services beyond their membership, such as coun-seling, meeting spaces, and charitable drives for families in need. While some churchgoers send contributions by mail, many prefer to place donations in collection baskets each Sunday during worship services. All public celebrations of Mass throughout the Archdio-cese of Newark are temporarily suspended during the cri-sis, and the Archdiocese and many community parishes have transitioned to live-streaming services online. “The faithful may also contribute through their usual channels, such as mailed envelopes, other online giving, and, especially, our Annual Appeal which is now in pro-gress,” the Cardinal said, adding that many within the Archdiocese have already reached out with generous of-fers of support and questions about how to give. “Together we will navigate these uncharted waters, pro-vide assistance to those in need, and secure the road ahead for the Catholic Church of the Archdiocese of Newark. We are grateful for the generosity of our faithful, and we will work together in prayer to move past this and prevent the suffering of the most vulnerable among us.” To learn more and contribute online, visit www.rcan.org/parishsupport.

KOMUNIA DUCHOWA

Kiedy ci w trudnych i zawiłych okolicznościach potrzeba siły i męstwa do podołania ciężkim zadaniom, przeciw którym buntuje się twe

wrodzone lenistwo lub zwykła małoduszność, to szukaj tej siły ducha w komunii duchowej, jak jej

szukali święci, idąc na męki i na śmierć męczeńską.

Nie zawsze możesz przystąpić do komunii sakramentalnej, lecz zawsze i w każdej chwili

możesz się wzmocnić komunią duchową. Więc wołaj z głębi duszy:

Wierzę o słodki Jezu, że jesteś rzeczywiście obecny

pod postaciami chleba i wina. Kocham Cię z całego serca! Żałuję za grzechy, którymi Cię

obraziłem(am). Przyjdź do serca mojego, o Ty jedyne pragnienie moje! Rzucam się w Twoje

objęcia, oddaję Ci się cały(a), o jedyny przedmiocie mej miłości. Nie dopuść, abym się

kiedy miał(a) oderwać od Ciebie!
