Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
My visit to the Oratory of St. Joseph with three of our parish
ladies was a spirit filled experience. It was like being in
heaven meeting our Patron face to face. I prayed for all our
parishioners. I brought all your prayers to our Patron Saint. I
met Fr. Jomon there who is interested to bring the relic of
our patron to our parish. Fr. Jomon has a team to conduct a
holy hour, presentation on St. Andre, anointing with St.
Joseph’s oil and a healing Mass which would need 2.30
hours. May our Patron help us to make it a vibrant parish.
With prayers,
Fr. Sahaya Paul Siluvai Sebastian
St Andre Bessette Parish Council Meeting July 10, 2019
Review and Update Calendar
Worship:
• New Mass schedule started last weekend: attendance for
5:00 at SHJ was 65, for 8:00 a.m. at SV 42 and 9:30 a.m. at SI
30, a total of 137 parishioners.
• Fr. Paul received a letter from Bishop approving the
schedule and has been advised by the Bishop to maintain
the new schedule as it is.
• Choir practice is at 5:00 on Thursday nights at SV.
• Fr. Paul is planning to offer Communion under both
species Christ starting this weekend.
Religious Education:
• Fr. Paul plans to have a committee for the Religious ED.
Program; helping to make decisions to decide on the time
of the Family Formation Program, recruit teachers, discuss
hospitality, a children’s Mass etc.…
• The program will start with kick off date of Sept 15th and
first class will be on October 6th and every first Sunday of
the month till May.
• The 8th, 9th and 10th graders will be making their
confirmation this year. It was reported that one of the
student’s mother would like to be confirmed also.
Social Action:
• SV Ladies Report: Pro-Life Rosary is schedule for July 11th
at 6:30 and August 8th at SV. Patriotic Rosary will be on
Sept 12th. On July 14 at 11:30 there will be an ice cream /
casserole dinner, cost will be $8.00 each.
• SHJ Ladies Report: Their annual community
service/clothing bag sale with additional flea market items
will be August 1st to 3rd at SHJ hall. The sale will run
latter on Thursday evening making it possible for people
to shop after work. There will be two drop off days, July
30th and 31st for folks to donate items for the sale. All
proceeds will go to “Right to Life”.
• Family Retreat: All expenses were covered for the retreat
with even money left over to go toward next year’s retreat.
Several positive comments were noted in the survey from
the people who attended the retreat. Fr. Paul discussed
having a Retreat Committee to help plan next year’s
retreat, i.e. format of the day, timeframe, food, Mass etc.…
His hope is that most of St. Andre Bessette Parishioners
will come to experience the Family Retreat Day next year.
Old Business:
• Action Plan Parish writing team report: Fr. Paul has made
a form to be mailed to all parishioners offering to make a
home visit and bless their home if they would like. Fr.
Paul hopes to start these visits soon which is a part of the
plan to create a more Vibrant Parish. With the
evangelizing aspect of the plan, it plans to bring 12
inactive families to the parish. Fr. Paul ordered and will
have suggestion boxes in each church to help with
communication in the parish. There will also be a website
through the Dioceses. The website will be named after St.
Andre Bessette Parish. The parishioners will be informed
when available.
New Business
• On July 2nd Fr. Paul was able to make a visit the Oratory
of St. Joseph. This is something he wanted to do before his
first Mass as the new Administrator of St. Andre Bessette
Parish.
• Fr. Naples received news from a Bro. Jean-Paul from the
Oratory about a relic being available for our parish. The
relic could be mail or presented by the Grand Reliquary
for special veneration and Consecration ceremony. Fr.
Paul will request the ceremony for either Sept 7th or 8th.
Fr. Paul would have this as the solo Mass/ceremony (about
2 1/2 hours long) with a potluck to follow for that
weekend.
• Besides a Religious ED. and the Family Retreat committee
Fr. Paul wants to know who the maintenance crews are for
each church and have them meeting as a committee. He
plans to write a guideline for the different ministries of the
Parish: Altar servers, Eucharistic ministers, Lectors,
Greeters, DRE., Religious Education Teachers, Ladies
Group etc.…
• Fr. Paul with the support of the parish council would like
to build up the Parish, to avoid blame and destructive
criticism. Feeling that forming committees will encourage
growth within the parish. Fr. Paul states, “There are three
churches but only one Parish” “I want to make it a
home”
• The new Mass schedule will be in the newspapers soon,
they have been notified.
• It was noted that it has not been announced before Mass
when there is going to be a second collection and what it is
for. Also, some of the information of who the Mass is
being offered for has not been updated or correct. Note
that the email id for the bulletin is
