Coronavirus & Parish Updates

An Update from Fr. Paul - Friday, December 11th

12/11/2020

0 Comments

 
Outside the main church door, there is a box with adult reflection books for Advent and Christmas, children Advent workbooks, and calendars for 2021.  Feel free to drive by and take what you can use.

​Tomorrow is the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe.  I have fond memories of many visits to her shrine and celebrations in México.  Please join me in praying to the Patroness of the Americas for peace and justice in all our countries, especially for the most vulnerable.

Please remember to register for Mass, if you will attend this weekend.  Registration is also open for Christmas Masses.

The next update is Monday.  Have a good weekend and stay safe.  God bless.

I have only received two responses to the following request, which was in two earlier updates.  Please take a moment to respond:

While planning for the Christmas break (there will be no updates December 25th - January 4th), the question arose if the work involved for continuing updates is reasonable.  On average, currently, only about 7 people are viewing them each day (in May the average was about 20 a day, in June and July in the teens). 

Here are a few options:
1.Continue with updates Monday through Friday.
2.Only have an update when there is something important to share.
3.Discontinue updates.
4.Post weekly updates, for example, every Friday.

Please e-mail me (frpaul@stpiusparish.org) and let me know what you think. Thank you.

Have a good day and stay safe.  God bless.

Happy feast of Juan Diego, the indigenous person to whom Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared.  In 3 days we will celebrate Guadalupe.  I pray for my Mexican friends in a special way these days.

Congratulations to parishioners Linda and Jim Jaworowicz, who made their first commitment last evening as members of the International Community of the Divine Savior, the lay branch of our Salvatorian Family.  May God bless you as you live out your commitment.

Have a good day and stay safe.  God bless.

Good news: last night the Wauwatosa Plan Commission voted unanimously to move forward the Cardinal Capital senior housing development project on our parking lot.  It now will go before the Common Council next week, which will set a Public Hearing on the matter, probably in mid-January.  We’re still a few months from a final decision. 

For more information about this project, please see the third page of the November issue of the Parish Press.  If you live in Wauwatosa and support this project, you might want to contact your Alder and express that support.

Happy Feast of the Immaculate Conception, the patroness of the United States.  I invite us to pray today for peace and unity in our country. Please call the parish office by noon today if you plan to attend the 7:00 pm Mass.

It is also a special day for Salvatorians.  Father Francis Jordan founded our community on this feast in 1881.  Please pray all Salvatorians grow in our ability to bring the goodness and kindness of Christ our Savior to our world.

Happy feast day!  God bless and stay safe.

I hope you had a good weekend.
​
Please be aware of texts or e-mails purportedly from me, asking for assistance, gift cards, etc. I don’t even text!  This has been happening to a number of pastors.  If you get something and are not sure, check with me before you do anything.

Remember, tomorrow is the feast of the Immaculate Conception, the patronal feast of the United States.  Masses are at 8:00 am and 7:00 pm. Please call the office to register for the evening Mass.

I REPEAT FROM FRIDAY:
While planning for the Christmas break (there will be no updates December 25th - January 4th), the question arose if the work involved for continuing updates is reasonable.  On average, currently, only about 7 people are viewing them each day (in May the average was about 20 a day, in June and July in the teens). 
Here are a few options:
  1. Continue with updates Monday through Friday.
  2. Only have an update when there is something important to share.
  3. Discontinue updates.
  4. Post weekly updates, for example, every Friday.
Please e-mail me (frpaul@stpiusparish.org) and let me know what you think.

Have a good day and stay safe.

The adult reflection booklet for Advent/Christmas and the children workbook for Advent are now outside the main door of the church in a box.  If you or someone you know could use one, drive by and pick it up.

The Formation Commission met last night by ZOOM to evaluate and plan.  Both the virtual 99 Experience and the Advent Reflection went well.  Plans are to offer another virtual 99 Experience in January.
​
Have a good day and stay safe.  God bless.

Please join us this evening at 7:00 pm in the church for our Advent Reflection, which will consist of a short presentation, quiet reflection time in front of the Blessed Sacrament, and Benediction.  This is a great way to get into the spirit of Advent!

Our reflection today in the Little Blue Book, distributed by the parish, reminds us of the small things we can do to bring Christ into this world.  If you have not had a chance to pick one up (and the Advent workbook for children), they will be in a box outside the church main door, starting tomorrow morning after Mass.  Drive by and pick one up.
​
Have a blessed day and stay safe.

I hope you had a good weekend.  

The parish staff meets by ZOOM this morning to review how things are going.  I thank the staff for their continued dedication to ministry in the name of our community.  Please keep them in your prayers.

A reminder that tomorrow at 7:00 pm in the church, we will have our Advent reflection.  I will give a short presentation on making change into transformation.  Quiet reflection time will follow and we will end with Benediction.  Please join us and enter more deeply into the spirit of this Advent season.  Safety measures will be followed.
​
Have a good day and stay safe.  God bless.
