WHAT TO EXPECT IN THE SECOND PHASE OF OUR RENEWAL OF CHURCH AND CAMPUS

Thanks to all your commitment and collective efforts, and God's abundant blessings, we have successfully complet-ed the first phase of our Renewal of Church and Campus project. Accomplishing this portion of our project in less than a year is a clear testimony that together, and with God's ever present blessings, we can achieve whatever we commit to accomplish in His name. It is with this assurance and confidence that I would like us to approach the next phase. A component of this second phase has been dictated in part, by the various voices and suggestions made to me by many of you and my own conviction that it is the opportune time to pursue it. What is in this second phase then? This includes the remodel of the sanctuary area of the church and the addition of a perpetual adoration chapel as part of the overall master plan of our campus which I presented to you earlier on! Within the Church, what now remains to be done is the replacement of the carpet in the altar and choir areas with decent tiles. Tied to this is the addition of the perpetual adoration chapel. Details and estimated costs of these are in the process of being worked out with the help of our Diocese and will be presented to you when ready. While the replacement of the carpet in the altar and choir sections is easy to understand, I suspect the perpetual ad-oration chapel idea or even perpetual adoration itself may not be obvious to many of us. For this reason, I will take the liberty to briefly explain these in order for us to better appreciate what we are committing to do in this phase. I might have to do this a few more times in the future before it becomes clearer. Typically, a perpetual adoration chapel is a quiet place (chapel) where the Blessed Sacrament is exposed and adored twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. Understood this way, perpetual adoration then is a Eucharistic devotion whereby members of a given parish (or other entity) unite in taking hours of adoration before the Most Blessed Sacrament, in most cases, exposed in a monstrance, both during the day and throughout the night, seven days a week. This devotion is based solidly on our belief in the real presence of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Why do we need a special chapel instead of the tabernacle to do perpetual adoration? This is mainly because, in the adoration chapel, the Blessed Sacrament is usually exposed in a monstrance which makes it possible to see Jesus visibly present under the appearance of the small white host in which we believe he is truly present body, soul and spirit. This visible exposition makes it much more conducive to intimacy than hidden away in the tabernacle. It is a proven fact that where perpetual adoration is embraced by a parish, enormous spiritual benefits are usually received. What are some of these benefits? After starting regular Eucharistic Adoration, many parishes have experi-enced a renewal of their community life, an increase in vocations, an increase in converts and the return of fallen-away Catholics, a new appreciation for Mass and the other sacraments, and many other spiritual benefits. Individuals also experience a renewal and strengthening of their family relationships, and a deepening of their prayer life: they come to appreciate the chance to slow down, relax, and talk to God in a quiet and peaceful setting. Dear friends, while we have achieved some of the re-modelling of our church which can physically be verified, I be-lieve we now need to move to this most important aspect – the spiritual re-modelling of each one of us. This in as-pect, though not physically verifiable and felt like the pews, never the less, defines who we are as Church, as Catho-lics and as St. James! Will you join me in achieving this objective by daily offering at least, a rosary for this intention? Jesus and I are counting on you!



Pastor’s Corner... Fr. Robert Aliunzi, A.J.

QUE SE PUEDE ESPERAR DE LA SEGUNDA ETAPA DE LAS MEJORAS DE NUESTRA IGLESIA Y PROPIEDAD

Gracias a todos ustedes por su compromise y esfuerzos colectivos, y las bendiciones abundantes de Dios, hemos exitosamente completado la primera etapa de nuestro Proyecto de Renovación de la Iglesia y Propiedad. En acabar esta parte de nuestro proyecto en menos de un año es un claro testimonio que juntos con las bendiciones de Dios, podemos alcanzar cualquier cosa que nos compremetemos a hacer en Su nombre. Es con esta aseguranza y confi-anza que me gustaría que abordar la próxima etapa. Un componente de la próxima etapa en parte ha sido dictado en parte, por varias voces y sugerencias que se han hecho saber y también por mis propias convicciones que es tiempo de perseguirlo. ¿Cuál entonces es la próxima etapa? Esto incluye el remodelaje de la area del santuario y la adicion de una capilla para adoración perpetua como parte del gran plan de nuestra propiedad cual se los presenté anteriormente. Adentro de la Iglesia, lo que queda de hacer es la reposición de la alfombra en el altar y area del coro con teja. Enlazado con esto es la adición de la capilla de adoración. Detalles y prosupuestos de estas cosas están en el proceso de ser computados con la ayuda de la Diocésis y se les presentará cuando estén listos. Mientras la reposición de la alfombra en el altar y la sección del coro es fácil de entender, sospecho que la idea de la capilla para adoración no sea clara para todos. Por esta razón tomo la libertad de explicar esto para nosotros mejor apreciar a que nos comprometemos en esta etapa. Puede ser que lo tenga que hacer varias veces en el fu-turo antes de que quede aclarado. Típicamente, una capilla de adoración perpetua es un lugar sereno dónde el Santísimo está expuesto y adorado 24 horas al día, siete días de la semana. Entendido de este modo, adoración perpetua es una devoción Eucarística por lo cual los miembros de la parroquia se unen en pasar horas de adoración ante el Santísimo, en muchos casos, ex-puesto en una custodia, de todo el día y toda la noche, siete días de la semana. Esta devoción esta sólidamente ba-sada en nuestra creencia de la presencia verdadera de nuestro Señor en el Bendito Sacramento. ¿Por qué necesitamos una capilla especial en vez del tabernáculo para tener adoración perpetua? Esto es porque, en la capilla, el Bendito Sacramento normalmente está expuesto en una custodia por lo cual visualmente podemos ver a Jesús bajo la aprarencia de la hostia en la cual creemos que verdaderamente está presente, cuerpo, alma, y espíritu. Esta exposición visible es más conducente a un intimidad en vez de estar oculto en el tabernáculo. Es un hehco comprobado que donde hay adoración perpetua, beneficios enormes espírituales son normalmente recibidos. ¿Cuáles son unos de los beneficios? Después de comenzar adoración Eucarística muchas parroquias ex-perimentaron una renovación de vida comunitaria, un aumento en vocaciones, un aumento en personas que entran a la Iglesia Católica y muchos Católicos que han dejado la fe han regresado, un nuevo agradecimiento de la Misa y los otros Sacramentos, y muchos otros beneficios espírituales. Individuos también experimentan una renovación y fortaleción de enlazos familiars, y un profundimiento de la vida de oración: vienen a apreciar la oportunidad de rela-jarse y la oportunidad de hablar con Dios en un lugar silencio y lleno de paz. Estimados amigos, mientras hemos logrado unas metas de las mejoras de la Iglesia, creo que es tiempo que abor-demos este aspecto importante---las mejoras espirituales de cada uno de nosotros. Este aspecto, aunque no pueda ser físicamente verificado como las bancas, sinembargo, define quienes somos como Iglesia, como Católicos, y co-mo St. James! Por favor se unen conmigo en alcanzar esta meta siquiera con rezar un rosario cada día? Yo y Jesús estamos contando con ustedes!
