Joyful News

Continued from last week…..

I arrived in Japan on September 21, 1991.

Finally, I was in my mission. After years of

preparation, of hoping and waiting, I was

there. I had no idea what the future would

look like, but I was ready for the challenge.

I had been there to visit a friend of mine a

few years previously, so it wasn’t my first

time. But this time it was for good. I wasn’t even sure who was

picking me up at the airport. And so the adventure began. Another

PIME priest, Fr. Giorgio, from Italy, arrived two days later. We would

be studying the Japanese language together for the next two years. The

PIME Headquarters in Japan was in Fuchu, a city about 20 minutes

from Tokyo. We lived in a parish and always had contact with the

parishioners, which helped us to practice our new language.

I had spent six months in Italy and had learned the language quickly.

Asian languages are much more difficult. A whole new alphabet and,

more importantly, a new way of thinking about how to speak. School

was five days a week for two years, in the high rise area of Tokyo

called Shinjuku. Each day after school, we would try out a new place

for lunch. Luckily they have pictures of all the menu items so we could

point to what we wanted.

Even after those two years, I could barely make myself understood.

My first homily was about 4 minutes long; someone in the parish

corrected it for me; I’m sure that no one understood what I said, but at

last they smiled. They were so patient. That Fall, I was assigned as

associate pastor to the Parish in Yamato, about 30 miles west of Tokyo.

The pastor was also a PIME priest. (In Japan, although the churches are

all named after saints, they are usually referred to as the name of the

neighbor hood or city where they are located). For the next two years I

struggled through homilies and trying to make myself understood.

There was a Filipino Community in the parish, so I was able to celebrate Mass in English for them.

Faith Formation. Sessions

begin at 6:00 pm and

conclude at 7:15 pm. Choir practice follows

till 8:00 pm. Registration Forms and

calendars will be available next weekend.

Look for yours or take a blank envelope.

Faith Formation begins on Sept. 12 this

We are also looking for Catechist Aides

We are looking for children to join us

Mass. If your children are invited to

participate, please encourage them to join

the parade. This will take place after the

Opening Prayer. The children return to you

at the Offertory. We do exactly what

happens in church only on a child’s level. If

you are interested in training for this

rewarding ministry please let me know. If

we get enough interested adults and teens

we will have a good rotation going and will be

able to offer it at the 10:00 and the Noon

Masses.

We are looking for children who need to

prepare to celebrate sacraments this year.

Penance or Reconciliation will be

celebrated in November. Eucharist will be

celebrated in April and (we hope)

Confirmation will be celebrated in May.

The Bottom Line An attorney died and went to heaven. As he approached the

Pearly Gates, he noticed an orchestra

playing and thousands of angels cheering.

St. Peter himself rushed over to shake the

lawyer’s hand. “This is quite a reception,”

marveled the new arrival. “You’re very

special,” St. Peter explained. “We’ve never

had anyone live to be 130 before.” The

attorney was puzzled. “But I’m only 65.”

St. Peter thought for a moment. “Oh,” he

said, “we must have added up your billing

hours.” Sr. Gemma Legel, OSF

Fr. Ken (Continued from pg. 1)

Although I was probably not prepared for it, after two years I was named pastor of the parish in Atsugi, about 10 miles west of Yamato. I was excit-ed; I already knew some of the parishioners, especially some of the young

people. I remained in Atsugi for six and a half years, and my heart is still there. God’s graces worked overtime. When the bishop of Yokohama asked me to transfer to the parish in Futamaagawa, I was torn; it was one of the

biggest parishes in the diocese, in the city of Yokohama, but that meant having to leave the parish and city I loved. Never one to back down from a challenge, I moved to Futamatagawa, a neighborhood in the city of Yoko-hama famous because the drivers license bureau is located there. The church was a short 5-minute walk from the train station, and a ten minutes train ride to downtown Yokohama. Yokohama is a city of four million peo-ple, with a well-known Chinatown. It is a port city and, unlike Tokyo and other large Japanese cities, has had the influence of foreigners for hundreds of years. Next week….my call back to the States. God Bless, Fr. Ken, PIME

The Jubilee Year of Mercy With Pope Francis

God’s Ears

The saints are like God’s ears—one for each need of his people. We, too, can be saints in a sense. We, too, can be God’s ears for our fam-ilies, in our neighborhoods, where we move about, and where we work. We, too, can be people who listen to the needs of others, not merely to commiserate with them or to go and tell others, but rather

to gather together all these needs and present them to the Lord in prayer. -Homily, Feast of San Cayetano, August 7, 2006

Reflection: How is listening an act of mercy? It is a sacrifice of our time, our de-sires, and our preferences. Be merciful this week by truly listening to others and presenting their needs to God in prayer

EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS of the EUCHARIST

Here are some guidelines from the Archdiocese of Detroit concerning Extraordinary

ministers of the Eucharist to the homebound, nursing homes, etc.

Ideally, the ministers to the sick are sent forth from the Sunday liturgy (or weekday

liturgy) so that those who are cannot be physically present at the community celebration

may be united in the Lord with the community. The ministers should receive the hosts for

distribution to the sick in a pyx at the time that they themselves receive Holy

Communion. They should not wait until after Mass to place the hosts in the pyx. Before

the ministers receive Communion themselves, they should hold out the open pyx, say how

many hosts are needed, and wait until that many are placed in the pyx. Then they should

close the pyx and receive Communion themselves.

The ministers should go directly to the homebound. It is not appropriate to go to

breakfast, shopping or elsewhere along the way.

The Blessed Sacrament may NOT be kept in one’s private possession, either on one’s

person or in a fixed place, except when in transit to bring Communion to someone.

The extraordinary minister should consume unused hosts. Should there be a large number

of hosts remaining, they should be returned promptly to the church and placed in the

tabernacle. Care should be taken at the next visit to limit the amount of Eucharist being

brought.
