Unfortunately, a dollar sign is attached to all our improvements, therefore, I ask parents, parishioners, alumni, visitors and friends to generously respond according to their means to this Easter Sunday collection. May God bless your generosity. SANCTUARY VOTIVE CANDLES For the week of April 17 through April 23, 2011 SACRED HEART ALTAR Candle I and Candle II For the living and deceased members of the Sacred Heart Society PALM SUNDAY OF THE LORD’S PASSION April 17, 2011 God greatly exalted (Christ) and bestowed on him the name which is above every name. – Philippians 2:9 HOSANNA! “Hosanna to the Son of David; blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord; hosanna in the highest” (Matthew 21:9). With these words the Church enters the holiest of weeks, commemorating the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ. When the people of Jerusalem cried out with their “hosanna,” they were using an ancient Hebrew shout of acclamation that meant, “Pray, save us.” The king to whom they were shouting eventually would save them, but in a way that would be far from what they expected. Salvation would come from the wood of the cross as Jesus hung there to bring freedom from sin and life through death, opening the gates of heaven for all who put their faith and trust in him. The second collection this weekend will be taken for the Partners in Charity donations Next weekend is the traditional collection for Educational Excellence in St. Joseph School. Please be generous. The children of St. Joseph School will serve as collectors. PENITENTIAL SERVICE This Monday, April 18, the Sacrament of Penance for all the faithful of St. Joseph Basilica will be held at 6 p.m. We encourage and invite everyone to be reconciled with God and one another and joyfully celebrate the resurrection of our Lord on Easter Sunday. The presence of several priests from different parishes will be available for your convenience. Confessions will be heard in both English and Polish. LITURGICAL SERVICES DURING HOLY WEEK Triduum. Why we celebrate one event over three days. The Paschal Triduum, Latin for “three days,” commemorates Christ’s redemptive passage through death, burial and resurrection to new life. The Church observes the Triduum as a single event made up of three distinct parts. In accordance with the custom in biblical times, each “day” begins in the evening. The first day of the Triduum begins with the Lord’s Supper on the evening of Holy Thursday. In the silence of the tomb on Good Friday the death of Jesus, Son of God, is confirmed. He did not simply lose consciousness, he truly died. Holy Saturday, while the Church silently prepares for the Easter Vigil celebration in the evening, the reality of Jesus’ death and resurrection comes into focus. Easter morning is the watershed event of our life of faith. The resurrection gives baptism its meaning, “alleluia” its joy, and the Church its hope. For the full 50 days of the Easter Season, the Church will rejoice and celebrate the wonders of these three days. Page 3 17 April 2011 - 17 kwiecien 2011 r. Holy Thursday. Mass and distribution of Communion at 7 a.m. for those who cannot participate in the evening services. Mass of the Lord’s Supper at 7 pm (bilingual). This sacred liturgy commemorates the establishment of the sacrament of the Eucharist and the Priesthood. We invite parishioners, all the school children and their parents to participate in the solemn liturgy. Rite of Reception of the Holy Oils, Washing of the Feet of the twelve apostle representatives, and procession on to the Repository will take place. It has been a tradition to visit area Catholic churches during the evening to say a prayer at the Repository. Keep this tradition on-going with your children as a family. Our Basilica will be open until 10 p.m. for your private prayers and reflection. Good Friday. No morning Mass. __At 3 pm the Liturgy of the Lord’s Passion will begin at Saint Joseph Basilica with adoration of the relics of the Holy Cross and distribution of Communion. ___At 6:30 pm adoration services at the Holy Sepulcher in the Basilica led by the Sacred Heart Society and the choir, followed by the singing of Gorzkie Zale. At 7:30 pm, reflection/adoration will take place in the Polish language. Reminder: Good Friday is a day of Fast and Abstinence, which means only one full meatless meal and two light meals may be taken. _Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land. The offering given at the adoration of the Cross is designated for the Holy Land which sustains various ministries and assists the Franciscan Friars in their works and to preserve the Holy Land’s precious Christian Community. The Good Friday Collection is the primary means of support for this work. Today keeping Christianity alive in the Holy Land and serving the people here is the urgent goal of the Church. It is a Pontifical Collection, mandated by Pope Benedict XVI and his predecessors. We know we can count on your assistance. Holy Land Christians, all the clergy and religious working there deeply appreciate your help Holy Saturday. No Morning Mass. The Easter Vigil will begin at 7:39 p.m. with the blessing of new fire, paschal candle and water followed by the Resurrection Liturgy. During this important celebration the Basilica Choir will assist the liturgy. At the Easter Vigil we celebrate the Sacraments of Initiation (Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist) and the Rite of Reception into the full communion of the Catholic Church. Jennifer Aoude is celebrating the Sacraments of Initiation and Cynthia Hunt and Shannon Quezada are celebrating the Rite of Reception in the full communion of the Catholic Church. Thank you to their sponsors who walked this journey of faith and conversion with them throughout the year. Note: Holy Water will be available at the conclusion of the services and on Easter Sunday. _Easter Sunday. The Resurrection Celebration (bilingual) will take place at 6 a.m. with a solemn procession from the Holy Sepulcher followed by the Mass. We kindly ask all parish organizations to take part in the services on this most solemn day of the year.

Page 4 PARTNERS IN CHARITY Palm Sunday provides the proper atmosphere for the works of charity and adhere to almsgiving, prayer and sacrifice. Today the second collection will be devoted to Partners in Charity to help the poor, neglected, forgotten and sick of our diocese. Among the many institutions and countless individuals this collection is helping there are about 65 retired priests in the Diocese of Worcester who greatly benefit from this fund. I am grateful to those who have contributed, but we have met less than half of our quota. If you have not as yet made your contribution, we kindly ask that you try to do so this weekend. If you already gave and can make an additional donation, God bless you! Work of charity in the Diocese of Worcester is an obligation of the local church. KRONIKA PARAFIALNA Bóg wywyószy» Chrystus i darowa» Mu imi“ ponad wszelkie imi“. (Fil 2, 09) Hosanna! "Hosanna Synowi Dawidowemu!
