VIDEO OF THE MONTH: Fr. Mike Schmitz explains why a Christian marriage has to be in a church. With the marriage vows, we aren’t just committing ourselves to our spouse. We are also saying in a very specific way that we will follow Christ.

Marriage is inherently connected to Christianity, and it’s not just about us. It’s also about the church community to which we belong. Visit spxreynoldsburg.com/education/adult-faith-formation (or, from the parish home page, spxreynoldsburg.com, click “Education” then “Adult Faith Formation”).Please note! Catholics who celebrated their wedding outside of a church can have their marriage “convalidated” in the Church, which is sometimes referred to as “blessing” a marriage. If you would like to find out more, call the parish office at 614-866-2859.

ST. PIUS X CHURCH REYNOLDSBURG, OHIO

SAINT OF THE DAY FOR SEPTEMBER 23

Saint Pio of Pietrelcina (May 25, 1887-September 23, 1968)Saint Pio of Pietrelcina’s Story:

In one of the largest such ceremonies in history, Pope John Paul II canonized Padre Pio of Pietrelcina on June 16, 2002. It was the 45th canonization ceremony in Pope John Paul’s pontificate. More than 300,000 people braved blistering heat as they filled St. Peter’s Square and nearby streets. They heard the Holy Father praise the new saint for his prayer and charity. “This is the most concrete synthesis of Padre Pio’s teaching,” said the pope. He also stressed Padre Pio’s witness to the power of suffering. If accepted with love, the Holy Father stressed, such suffering can lead to “a privileged

path of sanctity.”Many people have turned to the Italian Capuchin Franciscan to intercede with God on their behalf;

among them was the future Pope John Paul II. In 1962, when he was still an archbishop in Poland, he wrote to Padre Pio and asked him to pray for a Polish woman with throat cancer. Within two weeks, she had been cured of her life-threatening disease.Born Francesco Forgione, Padre Pio grew up in a family of farmers in southern Italy. Twice his father worked in Jamaica, New York, to provide the family income.At the age of 15, Francesco joined the Capuchins and took the name of Pio. He was ordained in 1910 and was drafted during World War I. After he was discovered to have tuberculosis, he was discharged. In 1917, he was assigned to the friary in San Giovanni Rotondo, 75 miles from the city of Bari on the Adriatic.On September 20, 1918, as he was making his thanksgiving after Mass, Padre Pio had a vision of Jesus. When the vision ended, he had the stigmata in his hands, feet, and side.Life became more complicated after that. Medical doctors, Church authorities, and curiosity seekers came to see Padre Pio. In 1924, and again in 1931, the authenticity of the stigmata was questioned; Padre Pio was not permitted to celebrate Mass publicly or to hear confessions. He did not complain of these decisions, which were soon reversed. However, he wrote no letters after 1924. His only other writing, a pamphlet on the agony of Jesus, was done before 1924.Padre Pio rarely left the friary after he received the stigmata, but busloads of people soon began coming to see him. Each morning after a 5 a.m. Mass in a crowded church, he heard confessions until noon. He took a mid-morning break to bless the sick and all who came to see him. Every afternoon he also heard confessions. In time his confessional ministry would take 10 hours a day; penitents had to take a number so that the situation could be handled. Many of them have said that Padre Pio knew details of their lives that they had never mentioned.Padre Pio saw Jesus in all the sick and suffering. At his urging, a fine hospital was built on nearby Mount Gargano. The idea arose in 1940; a committee began to collect money. Ground was broken in 1946. Building the hospital was a technical wonder because of the difficulty of getting water there and of hauling up the building supplies. This “House for the Alleviation of Suffering” has 350 beds.A number of people have reported cures they believe were received through the intercession of Padre Pio. Those who assisted at his Masses came away edified; several curiosity seekers were deeply moved. Like Saint Francis, Padre Pio sometimes had his habit torn or cut by souvenir hunters.One of Padre Pio’s sufferings was that unscrupulous people several times circulated prophecies that they claimed originated from him. He never made prophecies about world events and never gave an opinion on matters that he felt belonged to Church authorities to decide. He died on September 23, 1968, and was beatified in 1999.At Padre Pio’s canonization Mass in 2002, Saint John Paul II referred to that day’s Gospel (Matthew 11:25-30) and said: “The Gospel image of ‘yoke’ evokes the many trials that the humble Capuchin of San Giovanni Rotondo endured. Today we contemplate in him how sweet is the ‘yoke’ of Christ and indeed how light the burdens are whenever someone carries these with faithful love. The life and mission of Padre Pio testify that difficulties and sorrows, if accepted with love, transform themselves into a privileged journey of holiness, which opens the person toward a greater good, known only to the Lord.”

AFTER DIVORCE RETREAT: ADVENTURE INTO THE INTERIOR LIFE: A day-long retreat of healing for individuals who are separated and/or divorced, lay leaders, and clergy will take place on Saturday, September 23, from 8:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Grove City. The day will be led by Rose Sweet, Catholic speaker and author of seven books including the program, “Surviving Divorce: Hope and Healing for the Catholic Family.” Participants will have the opportunity to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation and the option to end the day with a Vigil Mass. The cost is $20.00 (scholarships are available) and lunch will be provided. Please register at DivorcedCatholicColumbus.org by Sunday, September 17.

A NEW AL-ANON MEETING IN PICKERINGTON! Hope is Found Here Al-Anon Group meets 6:30 p.m. on Friday evenings at St. Andrews Episcopal Church, 8630 Refugee Road (just West of Milnor Road). Al-Anon worldwide has long been a support and hope for those living with or affected by the addictions of a spouse, parent, relative, child or friend.

St. Pius X Church & School Annual Financial Report

Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2017 CommentaryI am pleased to report that overall we finished the Fiscal Year ending June 2017 with favorable results. On the reverse side of this letter is an Abbreviated Financial Report which outlines the various areas of income and expenses for the year.

Our net income for the year was $39,952. We thank all of our parishioners who continue to support the operational needs of the Parish through their offertory, building fund, and other special collections throughout the year. For two years in a row, we continued to exceed our offertory budget, this year by $26,838. These additional dollars help us to continue to work on unexpected issues that may arise during the year. We thank you for your generous support. Additionally, the Capital Campaign generated in donations $1,199,925, which is not included in the daily operations of the Church and is spent solely for the construction you see around the campus. We are elated that our Capital Campaign started ahead of schedule and will continue to make our community grow in faith.

The School’s income was favorable this past fiscal year mainly due to the subsidies received from other parishes for students in our school, including the subsidy St. Pius X pays for its students. Additionally, an increase in the monies received for State Funds resulted in $15,865 more than budgeted. Another favorability resulted from lower technology costs due to the monies received during the School fund raiser, “A Night in Green.” This has allowed for Chromebooks to be given to all students in classrooms from 3rd to 8th grade and allowed for new wiring for technology throughout the School building.

The Parish financials showed a positive performance for the year. The Children’s Center Silent Auction, which happens during the festival, had the best results since its inception. Also, our nine endowments, which are administered by the Diocese of Columbus, produced favorable results. Unfortunately, we did pay a slight more in expenses than what was budgeted due to the Grounds Maintenance on the campus. Major work was completed to clear dead limbs and trees throughout the whole property. As always, we continue to look for ways to maintain or reduce expenses throughout the year.

We are grateful to our parishioners for their continued support of the operational needs of St. Pius X Church and School and we are grateful to the employees for their continued contributions to the life of the Parish and success in fulfilling our Parish mission. In addition, let us not forget, we thank the many parishioners who support the Church and School by volunteering their time and talents to create a vibrant Parish community.

Yours in Christ, Monsignor David Funk
