PASTORAL COUNCIL
I am happy to announce the newly formed Pastoral Council members. They are as follows: I am still looking for a recording secretary. The purpose of a pastoral council is to assist the Pastor in fostering pastoral activity in the parish. Let me quote the relevant Canon Law:
Can. 536.
1. If the diocesan bishop judges it opportune after he has heard the presbyteral council, a pastoral council is to be established in each parish, over which the pastor presides and in which the Christian faithful, together with those who share in pastoral care by virtue of their office in the parish, assist in fostering pastoral activity.
2. A pastoral council possesses a consultative vote only and is governed by the norms established by the diocesan bishop.
I am grateful to the members of the council for their generosity in serving the parish under this capacity.
With Prayers and Blessings,
Fr. Tom
Please make yourselves available to attend the Parish Lenten Retreat preached by Fr. Mathew Vellankal of Fremont, California, March 22 through March 24, at 7 pm (Mass at 6:30 pm). The Lenten Penance Service will be on March 25 at 7 pm. Several priests will be available for confessions that evening.
1. All members of the Christian faithful, in their own way, are bound to do penance, in virtue of divine law. In order that all may be joined in a common observance of penance, penitential days such as the Season of Lent are prescribed during which the Christian faithful in a special way, pray, perform works of piety and charity, and deny themselves by fulfilling their responsibilities more faithfully and especially by observing fast and abstinence according to the norms of the following directives (Canon 1249):
ABSTINENCE
2. All persons who have completed their 14
th year are bound by the law of abstinence from meat.3. Complete abstinence is to be observed on Ash Wednesday and the Fridays of Lent, and Good Friday during the Easter Triduum.
4. The faithful will not lightly excuse themselves from this obligation. On days of complete abstinence, meats and soup or gravy made from meat are not to be eaten.
FAST
5. All adults are bound by the law of fast up to the beginning of their sixtieth (60
th) year. According to Canon 97, #1, a person who has completed the eighteenth (18th) year is an adult.6. The day of fast during Lent is Ash Wednesday (February 17) and Good Friday (April 2).
7. The faithful will not lightly excuse themselves from this obligation.
6:30pm Mass; 7:00pm Stations; 7:45pm Soup & Bread meal in the Hall
Mahalo for everyone’s generosity – amazingly, all of the Stations on Friday evening with the exception of the Good Friday 12:00 Noon Stations have been covered by a ministry to lead. A big thank you and blessings to all the groups below who will lead us in the sacred walk each Friday.
