Dear Mary Star of the Sea Parishioners:

As we begin the new School year and return from our Summer vacations it is a good time to make some resolutions about our Family-life; our Work-life; and our Prayer-life. Below is an article on coming to know Christ in the Blessed Sacrament, and the importance of Eucharistic Adoration and Devotion which we are so blessed to have here at Mary Star. I hope you find it helpful and will considerer signing up for an hour with our Perpetual Adoration Chapel. Have a Blessed Week. Fr. Harrigan Pastor Jesus waits for us in this Sacrament of Love “In the sacred Host, He is present, the true treasure, always waiting for us. Only by adoring this Presence do we learn how to receive Him properly.” O SACRAMENT MOST HOLY, O SACRAMENT DIVINE, ALL PRAISE AND ALL THANKSGIVING BE EVERY MOMENT THINE What is Eucharistic Adoration? Understood simply, Eucharistic Adoration is adoring or honoring the Eucharistic Presence of Christ. In a deeper sense, it involves "the contemplation of the Mystery of Christ truly present before us". During Eucharistic Adoration, we "watch and wait", we remain "silent" in His Presence and open ourselves to His Graces which flow from the Eucharist ... By worshiping the Eucharistic Jesus, we become what God wants us to be! Like a magnet, The Lord draws us to Himself and gently transforms us. In its fullest essence ... Eucharistic Adoration is "God and Man reaching out for each other, at the same time!" The Eucharist is: Jesus truly present - Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity! At the moment of Consecration, during the Mass, the "gifts" of bread and wine are transformed (transubstantiated) into the actual Body and Blood of Christ, at the Altar. This means that they are not only spiritually transformed, but rather are actually (substantially) transformed into the Body and Blood of Christ. The elements retain the appearance of bread and wine, but are indeed the actual Body and Blood of Christ. This is what is meant by Real Presence: the actual, physical presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. Christ instituted this Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist in order to remain with mankind until the end of time (Jn. 14:18). The ( reserved ) Blessed Sacrament serves as a focal point of devotion. Because, as Catholics, we believe that Christ is truly and substantially present in the Eucharist, the Blessed Sacrament is given the same adoration and devotion that is accorded to Christ. At the beginning of the exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, a priest or deacon removes the sacred host from the tabernacle and places it in the Monstrance on the Altar for adoration by the faithful. "Monstrance" is the vessel used in the Church to display the consecrated Eucharistic Host, during Eucharistic adoration or benediction. The word monstrance comes from the Latin word monstrare, meaning "to expose". It is known in Latin as an Ostensorium. When a consecrated host is placed in the monstrance, It is said to be a solemn exposition. When the Monstrance contains the Sacred Host, the priest does not touch it with his bare hands, but instead, holds it with a humeral veil, a wide band of cloth that covers his shoulders (humera) and has pleats on the inside in which he places his hands. At all other times, the reserved Sacrament is kept locked in the Tabernacle, so that the faithful may pray in the presence of the Sacrament. "Perpetual Adoration" is Eucharistic Adoration round the clock (that is, twenty-four hours a day). A "Holy Hour" is "Eucharistic Adoration of Reparation" which lasts for about an hour.

Did You Know?/¿Sabia Usted? Teach kids when to say something: It is important to help children understand the difference between telling on others and sharing information that could help keep themselves or someone else safe. Teach children about secrets that are okay (a surprise birthday party), and secrets that are never okay (don’t tell mom or dad that...), and, perhaps most importantly, what to do if someone asks them to keep a bad secret. Speaking up can save a kid from harm or abuse. To request a copy of the VIRTUS® article “To Tattle or Protect” email [email protected] or call (213) 637-7227. Enséñeles a los niños cuándo decir algo: Es importante ayudar a los niños a comprender la diferencia entre contar algo sobre los demás y compartir información que podría ayudar a mantenerse a sí mismos o a otra persona a salvo. Enseñe a los niños sobre los secretos que está bien no contar (una fiesta de cumpleaños sorpresa), y los secretos que nunca están bien (no decirle a mamá o papá que...), y, quizás lo más importante, qué hacer si alguien les pide que mantengan en secreto algo malo. Hablar puede salvar a un niño de daño o abuso. Para solicitar una copia del artículo de VIRTUS® “To Tattle or Protect”(Chismear o proteger), envíe un correo electrónico a [email protected] o llame al (213) 637-7508.
