St. E Melville-1
We invite all new members of our parish community to register at the Center. We also encourage you to join one of our numerous parish ministries, so that you may acquire a deeper sense of belonging and accomplishment serving the needs of others.
Celebration of the Eucharist Weekdays (Monday to Thursday) at 9:30 a.m.
Saturdays at 5:00 p.m. (Vigil for Sunday)
Sundays at 8:00 a.m., 10:00 a.m. (Family Mass) and Noon
Holy days usually at 9:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. (Please check the bulletin or website.)
Becoming a Catholic or Adult Confirmation Are you interested in becoming Catholic? Were you never Confirmed and now find that you would like to complete your Sacraments of Initiation? Are you interested in finding out more about the Catholic faith? If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, then Faith Formation is for you! Call the Parish Center for more information.
Baptism Baptisms are celebrated on various Sundays throughout the year at 1:15 p.m. You are encouraged to register for the baptism BEFORE YOUR CHILD IS BORN, so that it is easier to attend the required Baptism Preparation Class. Please call the Center and we will be happy to set up an appointment. Many parents also use this opportunity to register in the Parish as a new parishioner. Information about Godparents is available on the website.
Marriage We are happy to arrange for your wedding. First, we have the marriage interview and then we can set the date for the wedding. More information is available on the website. Please call the Center for an appointment and we will be happy to help you!
Reconciliation Confessions are heard in our Church Reconciliation Room (in the Blessed Sacrament Chapel) on Saturdays from 4:00 until 4:45 p.m. You are also welcome to call the Center and make an appointment to celebrate the Sacrament.
Anointing of the Sick We encourage all those eligible for this Sacrament to be anointed after the Noon Mass on the first Sunday of the month or by calling the Center. Those eligible are those who are about to undergo an operation; are suffering from serious illness and the condition has worsened; or are enduring the weakening effects of advancing age and it has been one year since they were last anointed.
St. E Melville-2
Processions in Holy Week by Paul Turner
You may feel you deserve applause when you get out of bed or off the couch and go to church. After all, many Catholics don’t even do that much. You do.
During Holy Week, however, going to church is not enough. Just when you think you can settle into your favorite pew, you will be asked to stand up, leave your place, and walk. Many Catholics resist. They become pew potatoes. But those who join the processions of Holy Week will find their faith and charity rewarded.
On Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord, for example, the Mass may begin outdoors. Instead of going directly into the church as usual, you may gather in another area—indoors or out. The priest will bless the palm branches, he or the deacon will proclaim the Gospel, and then all process into the church acclaiming Christ.
On Thursday of the Lord’s Supper, the evening Mass does not conclude in the usual way. Instead, a procession forms right after communion. The Blessed Sacrament is brought to a special chapel or tabernacle. You may be invited to join this procession, singing hymns of praise and moving to a place where you may pray privately in the course of the night.
During the Good Friday liturgy, you will be invited forward to adore the cross. At the Easter Vigil, as on Palm Sunday, you may be invited to start Mass outside the church. There a fire may be burning, signifying the resurrection of Christ, the light that shatters darkness. Carrying candles, you enter the church following a pillar of fire, as our ancestors marched from slavery to freedom.
The processions of Holy Week draw us into the mystery of the death and resurrection of Christ. It is worthwhile to get up out of the pew.
Palms by Paul Turner
The Catholic faithful use palm branches at Mass on Palm Sunday and bring them home for devotional purposes. Palm Sunday is the popular name for the Sunday before Easter, though its full title is Palm Sunday of the Lord’s Passion. Two Gospel passages are proclaimed at Mass that day: one tells of people waving branches or spreading cloaks to welcome Jesus in triumph to Jerusalem, and the other tells of His passion and death.
Any branches may be used in the liturgy, but parishes usually provide palm branches, as mentioned in John’s gospel (12:13). The faithful hold them at the beginning of the Mass for the blessing and procession. After Mass, people may bring the branches home as a sacramental. Various customs have developed. Some place branches behind a wall-mounted crucifix or other religious image. Others cleverly fold them into crosses. Still others incorporate blessed branches into improvised prayers for protection during harmful weather.
Used palm branches are burned the following year, and the ashes are placed on the heads of the faithful on Ash Wednesday. Some parishes burn their own ashes. People who wish to dispose of old palm branches may offer them back for burning or dispose of them at home in some reverent manner.
Palm branches appear in religious art as a symbol of martyrdom. In the Book of Revelation (7:9), a great multitude praises God with palm branches in hand. In the apocryphal gospel of pseudo-Matthew (20-21), a palm tree miraculously bends over to nourish the Holy Family on the flight into Egypt, and an angel plants one of its branches in paradise, making the palm a sign of victory in any contest.

First Reading: This passage depicts a servant whom God called to strengthen the weary. Like many prophets, he encounters rejection, insult and violence. Confident that God will ultimately vindicate him, the servant sets his face “like flint” in endurance. Although this song comes from the time of the Babylonian Exile, it gave the early Church a way of speaking about Christ’s suffering. The Servant Songs are not direct
predictions about Jesus but a means for His followers to understand His suffering and death.
Responsorial Psalm 22: This psalm is the lament of a person who endures great suffering. Some people ridicule him, convinced that his troubles are caused by great sin. His enemies gloat, his friends desert him and his family members divide up his belongings as if he were already dead. Even so, the psalmist still expresses confidence that he will eventually be vindicated. He weaves such expressions into his cries of despair until at last he manages a vow: if God will save him he will sing a song of praise to God in the midst of all the people. Jesus will quote the psalm’s opening line from the Cross and the early Church will rely heavily on this psalm for understanding Jesus’ death. The psalm’s vivid imagery and profound insights into the suffering of the innocent make it a natural choice for explaining how the Messiah could have met such an ignoble
end.
Second Reading: This early creedal hymn, which Paul quotes, provides Christians with a framework for understanding the life, death and exaltation of Jesus Christ. Like Isaiah’s prophet, Jesus is seen as God’s servant - one who did not regard being made in God’s image as something about which to boast. Rather, Jesus chose the path of self-emptying as the way to remain faithful to his calling. “He humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Because of this, God greatly exalted him.” The early Christians who sang this hymn knew that the agony and disgrace of Jesus’ Crucifixion were to be understood only in light of His vindication by God through the Resurrection. For Paul, this creed is all one needs to know about Jesus’ life. Paul, however, is not only concerned that the Philippians intellectually know this passionate way, but he also wants them, and us, to know it in our hearts. We are to be imitators of the passionate Christ just as Paul is.
Gospel: From Jesus’ Last Supper with His disciples to His final breath on the Cross, the picture of Jesus in Luke’s Gospel is of one who is a servant faithful to God in the face of evil. The power of darkness, which left Jesus after the temptations “until an opportune time” (Luke 4:13), now returns to attack Jesus. Yet, throughout the story, we encounter Jesus’ deep compassion as He experiences Judas’ betrayal; His arrest by armed soldiers; Peter’s denial; His followers’ abandonment; His opponents' mockery and the crowd’s vilification. When one of the slaves in the arresting party has his ear cut off, Jesus heals him. When He is
shuttled back and forth from the Sanhedrin to Herod to Pilate, His faithful obedience to the demands of the moment does not waiver. When one of the criminals being crucified with Him asks to be remembered, Jesus offers him the blessing of paradise. Never does He betray His understand- ing of Himself as “one who serves,” whose life is being “given” and “poured out” for His disciples. The cry of the soldier at the Cross, “Certainly this man was innocent,” completes the picture of Jesus’ innocence in the midst of evil. While His murder was a political act that satisfied military and religious leaders whose authority He challenged, Jesus’ revolutionary work for God’s reign had just begun.
