ST.
PRAYER TO ST. JOSEPH for the world during the pandemic�
� To you, O blessed Joseph, do we come in our tribula�on, and having implored the help of your most holy Spouse, we confidently invoke
your patronage also. Through that charity which bound you to the Immaculate Virgin Mother of God and through the paternal love with
which you embraced the Child Jesus, we humbly beg you graciously to regard the inheritance which Jesus Christ has purchased by his
Blood, and with your power and strength to aid us in our necessi�es.�
� O most watchful guardian of the Holy Family, defend the chosen children of Jesus Christ; O most loving Father, ward off from us every
contagion of error and corrup�ng influence; O our most mighty protector, be kind to us and from heaven assist us in our struggle with the
power of darkness. As once you rescued the Child Jesus from deadly peril, so now protect God's Holy Church from the snares of the
enemy and from all adversity; shield, too, each one of us by your constant protec�on, so that, supported by your example and your aid,
we may be able to live piously, to die in holiness, and to obtain eternal happiness in heaven. Amen.�

But other hearts in other lands are bea�ng, with hopes and

beams on cloverleaf and pine; But other lands have sunlight
too, and clover, And skies are ev'rywhere as blue as mine. O
hear my song, thou God of all the na�ons, A song of peace for
their land and for mine.�
3. This my prayer, O Lord of all earth's kingdoms: Thy kingdom
come; on earth thy will be done. Let Christ be li*ed up �ll all
shall serve him, And hearts united learn to live as one. O hear
my prayer, thou God of all the na�ons; Myself I give thee;
let thy will be done.�

Soul of Christ, sanc�fy me. Body of Christ, save me.�
Blood of Christ, inebriate me. �
Water from the side of Christ, wash me. �
Passion of Christ, strengthen me. �
O Good Jesus, hear me. Within your wounds hide me. Separated
from you, let me never be. �
From the evil one protect me. �
At the hour of my death, call me,�
And close to you bid me that with your saints �
I may be praising you for ever and ever. Amen.�
�
�
CLOSING HYMN: “Holy God We Praise Thy Name” �

All on earth thy scepter claim, All in heav’n above adore thee;�
Infinite, thy vast domain, Everlas�ng is thy reign.�
Infinite, thy vast domain, Everlas�ng is thy reign.�
2. Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Spirit, Three we name thee;�
While in essence only One, Undivided God we claim thee;�
And adoring, bend the knee, While we own the mystery.�

� � Last fall we removed two very large
trees from the front of the rectory (one
very dead spruce and one about�to�be�
dead ash tree. This opened up a lot of
space and landscaping possibili�es to fill
the void. Last spring people at St.
Stanislaus responded to my appeal for dona�ons to
plant 9 trees in the church and school parking lots. We
even had one dona�on from a Holy Ghost parishioner
for that project.�
I am appealing to anyone interested in helping the
Holy Ghost “Reforestaon 2021” program to step
forward to sponsor a tree or shrub. These are the
possibili�es:�

� 1 Autumn Blaze Maple� $459.00�
� 5 Cleveland Pear Trees�$435.00 each�
� 1 Weeping Birch� � $500.00�
� 2 Weeping Blue Spruce�$200.00 each�
� 5 Viburnum Bushes� � $45.00 each�
Please contact Carrie at the parish office �
402�731�3176 to let her know if you would be willing to
help in this effort. The Men’s Club will cover other
expenses. Dona�ons of any amount would be
appreciated to help with the new shrubs and perennials
in front of the church as well.�

The Feast of the Holy Trinity�
Trinity Sunday is a moveable feast celebrated
a week after Pentecost Sunday. Trinity
Sunday honors the most fundamental of
Christian beliefs�belief in the Holy Trinity.
The human mind can never fully understand the mystery
of the Trinity, but we can sum it up in the following
formula: God is three Persons in one Nature. There is
only one God, and the three Persons of God�the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit�are all equally God, and
they cannot be divided.�
As Fr. John Hardon points out in his Modern Catholic
Dictionary, the or igins of the celebration of Tr inity
Sunday go all the way back to the Arian heresy of the
fourth century. Arius, a Catholic priest, believed that
Jesus Christ was a created being rather than God.�
In denying the divinity of Christ, Arius denied that
there are three Persons in God. Arius' chief opponent,
Athanasius, upheld the orthodox doctrine that there are
three Persons in one God, and the orthodox view
prevailed at the Council of Nicaea, from which we get
the Nicene Creed, recited in most Christian churches
every Sunday.�
(The Council of Nicaea also gives us a wonderful
example of how a real bishop deals with a heretic:
Confronted with Arius' blasphemous views, Saint
Nicholas of Myra�the man best known today as Santa
Claus�marched across the council floor and slapped
Arius across the face.)�
To stress the doctrine of the Trinity, other Fathers of
the Church, such as St. Ephrem the Syrian, composed
prayers and hymns that were recited in the Church's
liturgies and on Sundays as part of the Divine Office, the
official prayer of the Church.�
The mystery of the Trinity is outlined in the Nicene
Creed but is also summarized in the Baptismal Creed
(and renewal of Baptism promises on Easter). Various
qualities/functions/powers of the Three Divine Persons
are presented in the Gloria of the Mass and the Apostles
Creed. We always begin our prayers, even the Mass,
“In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the
Holy Spirit.” In Holy Baptism we are baptized in the
name of the three persons of the Trinity. The
“Doxology” (or the prayer we commonly refer to as the
“Glory Be”) addresses the Three Persons in the One
Godhead.�
The mystery of the Trinity is a sublime mystery that
surpasses the capability of the human mind to grasp. It
seems to defy logic and reason: one God in Three Divine
Persons; Three Persons yet one God. One + One + One
= One. Even the angels and Blessed in Heaven do not
grasp the mystery completely; they don’t even try. They
really don’t need to do that. They are drawn into the
mystery of His divine love and nothing more is needed.
So it should be for us here below as well.�
