Observances This Week
We pray for the men who were ordained as transitional deacons last weekend, including Craig Best, Jarred Kohn, Andrew Smith, Nicholas White and Jacob Willig, who our parish has been asked to support through our prayers during his years of formation at Mount Saint Mary’s Seminary. We also pray for Deacons David Doseck, Peter Langenkamp and Alexander Witt who will be ordained priests for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati on May20.
Today we honor all the teachers who have touched our lives and we support the men and women who have an impact on the lives of young people today. Why not reach out to one of your former teachers by card or email and tell them how much you appreciate their dedication?
Wednesday, May 10: St. Damien de Veuster, Priest
The man who would become St. Damien of Molokai was born in Belgium on Jan. 3, 1840. He wanted to follow his older brother and two sisters who took religious vows. He entered the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. He took the name Damien, after a sixth century martyr. In 1864, Damien's brother, who was also in the same order, was ordered to Hawaii, but he became ill, so Damien offered to go in his place.
Brother Damien arrived in Hawaii in March, 1864, and was ordained two months later. In 1866 Hawaii established a leper colony on the island of Molokai on the Kalapaupapa Peninsula and required forced quarantine of leprosy patients. In 1873, Fr. Damien made the trip to be with the people in their colony. The leper colony was to become his permanent home. Fr. Damien grew attached to the people and his work. He asked permission to stay at the colony to serve. His request was granted. Father Damien contracted leprosy in 1865. He derived the strength to continue his ministry from prayer and devotion. He often went to the cemetery to pray the Rosary or spent time in the presence of the Eucharist. "It is at the foot of the altar that we find the strength we need in our isolation," he wrote. After 16 years in the colony, Fr. Damien succumbed to leprosy on April 15, 1889. The day of his passing is a statewide holiday in Hawaii.

Gabriella Zuccarello, a new parishioner, who just happens to be from Italy, has
graciously offered to teach Italian lessons to our parishioners while she is on summer
hiatus from her teaching duties at Xavier University. Gabriella hopes to have a small
class—8 students at most—who will meet once each week for one hour beginning in June. If you are interested in learning to
speak Italian and learn more about Italian culture, please call the parish office.
Have you ever wanted to learn to speak
Italian?
On May 13, 1917, three shepherd children named Lucia, Jacinta, and Francisco saw a vision of Our Lady of Fatima who was dressed in white and holding a rosary. These apparitions lasted through October of the same year and brought messages of prayer, repentance, and
reparation.
The apparitions were declared of “supernatural character” by the Catholic Church in 1930,
and a shrine was erected near the original apparition site in Fatima. Since then, thousands of pilgrims have made their prayerful journeys to Fatima, including three popes: Pope Paul VI,
Pope John Paul II, and Pope Benedict XVI.
During Pope Francis’ upcoming anniversary pilgrimage to Fatima, he will canonize two of the
Fatima visionaries, Francisco and Jacinta Marto, on May 13.
“Music & Meditations” with
Pedro Arroyo-Ojeda In celebration of receiving his
Doctorate of Musical Arts May 12, 2017 7:30pm - 9:00pm
at Holy Cross-Immaculata Church
Holy Cross-Immaculata Parish is pleased to sponsor this special event!
“Music & Meditations” is a fundraising recital for our beloved cantor and outstanding ten-
or who will be moving to Meiningen, Germany, for a chorus position at the Meiningen
Court Theatre. In this recital, Pedro will be singing music inspired from the Bible (Dvorak’s
Biblical Songs), major sacred and oratorio arias (including arias from Verdi’s Requiem and
Rosini’s Stabat Mater), and a group of arias from operas and musicals that include a prayer
in them.
Please join Pedro Arroyo and pianist Christopher L. Koon for an evening of gorgeous music
inspired in meditations and prayers. Parishioners who regularly attend the Saturday Mass
are familiar with Pedro’s incredible gift of voice. There have been many times when the
congregation has had tears in their eyes—but smiles on their faces because Pedro has
touched their hearts and souls with his incredible voice. Others may have heard Pedro for
the first time at the Good Friday afternoon service. Someday Pedro will perform at many
of the well-known opera houses throughout the world. We have been blessed to have
him at our parish for the past few years. We invite you to attend a night of music that you
will long remember! Admission is free, but donations to assist Pedro with travel and other
expenses will be greatly appreciated.
Unbound believes in a focus on individual needs and strengths and seeks a radically personalized approach to development. This requires a strong belief in the agency and ability of individuals and families to direct their paths out of poverty, but it also demands a commitment to dependable, direct support over a long period of time. Lasting change takes time. Unbound sponsorship offers the simple security that consistent financial resources and a supportive community will walk with an individuals and families for 10, 15 or even more years. Receiving a small amount of financial support on a regular basis allows families a little more room to breathe and a little more space to maneuver around the daily obstacles that surround them. Unbound sponsorship is about individuals and families helping each other. It is a connection between someone who wants to give help and someone who needs it. Unbound sponsorship lifts people up — both the sponsor and the sponsored — in ways that are large and small. Unbound supporters are on the leading edge of fighting world poverty. Poverty isn't just about lack of money — it’s about lack of choices. We’ve found that families make good choices when they have support and encouragement. They invest in the education of their children. They develop livelihoods and become active community participants in the spirit of true sustainability. Unbound works with families at the grassroots level with local staff. Our social workers visit the homes of the families and listen to their needs. They work with children to set education goals. They visit the elderly. They bring families together in small groups to support one another and improve their community. Individuals are partnered with Unbound in this effort. Your sponsorship provides direct, personal support for your friend and family. It encourages them. It gives them choices. It allows them to develop their talent and fulfill their potential. Fr. Martin will present more information about Unbound. No collection will be taken up, but resources will be available for anyone who is interested in this ministry.
For more information go to: www.unbound.org
On the weekend of May 20-21 we will welcome
Fr. Martin Holler to our parish to speak on the
mission of UnBound
