Pastor s Corner Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time, November 18, 2018 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Thanks Be To God! Happy Feast of Our Patroness! Happy Thanksgiving! God Bless America! The Feast Day of St. cecilia Virgin & Martyr our parish Patroness is this Thursday November 22nd. She lived in the thir d centur y and is the Patr on of Musicians.

3 A cultivated young Patr ician, her family loomed large in Rome s history. After her acceptance of Baptism she vowed herself to God through a promise of perpetual virginity but her parents married her to Valerian of Trastevere. She told her new husband that she was often visited by an angel of heaven but in order to see the angel he himself received Baptism. He agreed and took instruction and was baptized into the Catholic faith by Pope St. Urban (223-230 AD). Return-ing from the ceremony, he found her in prayer accompanied by an angel. The angel placed a crown on each of their heads and offered Valerian the grace of bringing his brother to the Faith. During the great persecutions of this time, the two brothers risked their lives by secretly burying the bodies of Christians who had been execut-ed for the Faith. They were arrested, martyred for Christ and buried by cecilia at her villa on the Appian Way.

4 cecilia was also arrested and ordered to sacrifice to the pagan gods of Rome which she refused to do. The pre-fect Almachius shut her up in the baths where for two days she was left to be suffocated. In spite of little air and the intense heat of the baths she remained unharmed. An executioner was sent to cut off her head but was unable to kill her after three attempts. For another three days she remained living though mortally wounded to the neck, praying for and exhorting the crowds who visited her to accept baptism and remain steadfast in the Faith. She died and was buried by Pope Urban. Her grave was rediscovered in 817 and her body transferred to the church of St. cecilia in Rome. Her tomb was again opened in 1599 and again found to be miraculously in-corrupt. The account of 1599 states, The body lies on its side, the limbs a little drawn up; the hands are deli-cate and are not locked, but crossed at the wrist: the arms are stretched out.

5 The drapery is beauti-fully modeled and modestly covers the limbs. The head is enveloped in linen, but the general form is seen. Happy Feast of our Patroness! Through her intercession may God always bless each of us. This coming Thursday is Thanksgiving Day! We will have special Mass in Tr ilingual at 9am. Please in-vite all your family members and friends to join us in thanking God our heavenly Father for all the blessings that He has bestowed upon us throughout the year. Together with my fellow clergymen, I would like to thank you so very much each and every one of you for your love, support, and generosity that you have shared with our Church and School during this past year, especially the parish Building Fund Capital Campaign.
