READERS & EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS/ LETTORI E MINISTRI STRAORDINARI DELL’EUCARISTIA We are currently trying to settle all those who have participated in our recent workshops. This will include an official installation for each group and turns on the regular weekend schedule. Just as a practical step, we would ask you to come into the sacristy a little while before Mass in order to see if we are short some ministers for your Mass. Sometimes people cannot keep their schedule at the last minute and we would be happy to have your help. We find that our Liturgies are enhanced by your participation. Sometimes we also end up having the same person performing all the different roles – like a one-man band. If you are here, why not add to the dignity of the sacred liturgy? In questo periodo stiamo cercando di sistemare tutti quelli che hanno partecipato alla recente formazione mirata ai ministri ecclesiali. In ciò consiste l’istituzione ufficiale di ciascun gruppo di ministri liturgici e la loro inclusione nei turni domenicali regolari. Come iniziativa pratica, siete pregati di passare dalla sacrestia una po` prima dell’inizio della Santa Messa a chiedere se è necessaria la vostra collaborazione per sostituire per ministri liturgici che manchino. La Vostra prestazione d’aiuto e ben gradita, perché accade a volte che alcuni all’ultimo momento sono impossibilitati alla turnazione del proprio servizio. A nostro parere, le celebrazioni liturgiche sono rese sempre più rilevanti con la Vostra partecipazione. A volte durante la Santa Messa la stessa persona svolge tutti i ruoli ministeriali, quasi come un tipo di uomo orchestra. Se siete presenti, perché non contribuite ad arricchire la dignità della celebrazione liturgica? Oggi domenica si terrà l’istituzione dei Ministri dell’Eucaristia. Vi chiediamo gentilmente di prestare attenzione per quanto sarà resa nota la lista e la data in cui avrà luogo l’istituzione dei Lettori. ORDINE FRANCESCANO SECOLARE La prossima riunione per l’ordine Francescano secolare si terrà giovedì 20 febb seguendo la S. Messa delle 8 am.

Thank you for your generosity last weekend: 84 people donated a total of $1,292. This would have been an average of $15 per envelope. Vi ringraziamo in anticipo per il vostro contributo generoso verso le bollette invernali per il riscaldamento e la luce. Anche se l’attendenza (e perciò, anche l’offerta domenicale) è diminuita, i conti arrivano lo stesso – consultatevi con la bacheca all’entrata della chiesa. Domenica scorsa abbiamo ricevuto un totale di 84 buste per il riscaldamento per una cifra di $1,292. GRAZIE! INCOME TAX RECEIPTS Income tax receipts are available in the sacristy for those who would like to pick them up. Should you have any questions please contact the parish office. EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS OF HOLY COMMUNION According to the norms of canon law, the following are authorised to be Extraordinary Ministers of the Holy Communion at St Francis of Assisi Parish. Secondo il codice del diritto canonico, le persone sopra elencate hanno ricevuto il mandato di Ministro Straordinario della Comunione alla Chiesa di San Francesco d’Assisi. Chiediamo a queste persone di venire in sacrestia 15 minuti prima della S. Messa del 15 o 16 febbraio per poter spiegarLe il rito per l’istituzione dei ministri straordinari.

LA SESTA DOMENICA — ANN0 A — 16 FEBBRAIO 2014 GOOD FRIDAY MEETING THURS 20 FEB INCONTROxVENERDÌ SANTO-GIOV 20 FEBB Our meeting to begin preparations for this year’s procession will be on Thurs Feb 20th at 7 pm in St Francis Parish Hall. This is a showcase event for the faith of our community. This year we will be a little disadvantaged with the rectory being cut off for renovations. We are hoping to carry out some re-organization including characters and a simplification of the route. We ask our groups to begin collecting names and contact information for those wanting to participate. MASS SCHEDULE FEBRUARY 15th to FEBRUARY 16TH 2014 Saturday, February 15th 11:00 AM 5:oo PM Sunday, February 16th 9:00 AM Giov 20 febb alle 7 di sera nella sala parrocchiale di San Francesco avremo il nostro primo incontro preparativo per la processione del venerdì santo. Siccome la casa parrocchiale è un cantiere di lavoro e perciò chiuso, saremo un po’ svantaggiati quest’anno. Cerchiamo di organizzarci bene e di semplificare anche la rotta della processione. Gentilmente chiediamo i capi gruppi di raccogliere i dettagli (nomi, ricapiti telefonici e indirizzi di posta elettronica) di chi vuole partecipare. 11:30 AM Monday, February 17th Seven Founsers of the Servite Order 8:00 AM COME AND SEE VOCATION RETREAT The Franciscan Vocation Office will hold a retreat weekend for single Catholic men between the ages of 1838 discerning a possible vocation to be a Franciscan Brother or Priest.
