August 15 - 16, 2015

   

   

At his first Audience after a summer break, our Holy Father spoke about the sanctity of marriage and reminded the clergy around the world to treat those who remarried invalidly after divorce with respect, care and concern.

     Today the priests of our diocese and our diocese as a whole have been very sensitive and pastoral in dealing with people in what we call “irregular” or “invalid” marriages. Years ago the penalty of excommunication was lifted from people who marry invalidly. Our Diocesan Tribunal has had a reputation for years as being efficient and resolving the question of validity of marriage and in the past few years has taken away the fee to process annulments and begun a program call “The First Step Program” to help people clarify their marital status.

     Attempting to pick up the pieces of one’s life after the tragedy of divorce is complex and demanding. One of the significant issues that a person faces is their place in the Church. Does the Church still care about me even though I am divorced? Am I allowed to go to Mass? Can I receive communion? How can the Church help me heal? If I decide to marry again, what do I have to do? During our Tribunal’s “First Step Program” sessions, representatives from the Ministry to the Divorced Office and the Department of Marriage and Family Ministry, together with the Tribunal staff, clarify these and other issues that come up and explain their ministry to those who are divorced.

     There are two remaining sessions scheduled for this year: Tuesday, September 15th, at 7:00pm at Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish in Cuyahoga Falls and Tuesday, October 13th, at St Ambrose Parish in Brunswick. For more information, see the Tribunal website: www.dioceseofcleveland.org/tribunal or call the Tribunal at 216-696-6525, ext 4000, or simply contact me. Remember, we care about you and are here to help.

YOUNG ADULT BIBLE STUDY

 

The program Unlocking the Mystery of the Bible helps us read the big picture of God’s plan in Scripture, find our place in that story, and live it out in our lives. Join us at Cuvilly House, 18021 Marcella Rd (convent building) on the first and third Tuesdays this fall for an informative and interactive program of scripture study.

FAITH AND VALUES

Catholic Schools are communities of faith, knowledge and service and exist to form young people in the Catholic faith. Academic success and rigorous achievement mark our schools as outstanding institutions. Essential to the Christian message is the command of Christ to serve others, and our students are taught to exemplify this command in their actions daily. Students, their parents, grandparents and other family members sacrifice to provide a Catholic education and are grateful for tuition assistance provided through the Faith and Values Appeal for Education. Please pray that the generosity of our parishioners will continue to support the formation of our youth in Catholic schools as they are taught to be the very best they can be. And please be generous in supporting Catholic Education.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

Our Parish religious education program has already started for this school year, but there is still time to register your children for classes. Children of grade school age should be receiving formal religious training, either in a Catholic school, or in a parish PSR program. Two years of Catholic instruction is required for First Communion, and Confirmation is administered in the eighth grade. Families with children who need to enroll in our PSR program, are asked to contact the parish office as soon as possible to register.

WORLD MEETING OF FAMILIES

Visit http://www.worldmeeting2015.org/ for the latest news on the World Meeting of Families Sept. 22-27, 2015 in Philadelphia, PA. The theme is: Love is Our Mission: The Family Fully Alive! The August theme is: Choosing Life - God Made Us for a Reason. His love is our life mission, one that enables us to find our true identity. If we choose to embrace this mission, we will have a new perspective on many issues, not just the family. To live the mission of the domestic church means that Catholic families will sometimes live as minorities, with different values than their surrounding culture. Our mission of love will require courage and fortitude. Jesus is calling, and we can respond, choosing lives of faith, hope, charity, joy, service, and mission.
