FROM THE DESK OF FR. BONA: (1) Last Sunday God blessed us with a wonderful weather and we were able to hold a Corpus Christi procession. We chose the route that the parish used to take in the past. We went through the West Side Market parking lot, then we turned right on W. 24th street, right on Bridge Avenue, and finally W. 22nd Street to reach the main doors of our church. A 1967 document of the Holy See commented on public processions: “in processions in which the Eucharist is carried through the streets solemnly with singing, especially on the feast of Corpus Christi, the Christian people give public witness to their faith and their devotion toward this sacrament” (Instruction Eucharisticum Mysterium, n. 59). Thank you to all those who participated in the procession and gave this witness to the world. I saw from the corner of my eye, as we were going by a table where a small family just sat down to eat, how the father took his hat off as the Eucharist passed by. Some others mentioned to me how they saw people stopping and inquisitively watching the procession. Thank you to all those who prepared the four altars and those who worked in any capacity to prepare for this event. If you have some observations and comments on how we can improve on our procession, please let me know.
(2) Today, the music for the 11 AM Sunday Mass is provided by our Youth choir.
PLEASE NOTE: I am away from the parish and will be back on June 26th. There will not be weekday Masses until the 29th and substitute priests will be covering the weekend Masses. Also, we will not have 9 AM Sunday Mass while I am away. If there is an emergency, please call your neighboring parish. If there are funerals, please email me at rbona@dioceseofcleveland.org. I keep you all in my prayers.
MASS SCHEDULE CHANGE: Changes at our Shrine of St. Elizabeth of Hungary necessitate a Mass schedule adjustment for us. After consultation and considering several alternatives, I have decided to move the 9AM Sunday Mass in English from St. Emeric to St. Elizabeth. The last 9AM Mass was held at St. Emeric on June 7 and the 9AM Mass at the shrine will start on June 28 and, like here at St. Emeric, it will be in English.
GRIEF SUPPORT GROUP: The Catholic Cemeteries Association’s next Sunday Grief Support Group will be on Sunday June 28th. In-person will meet at 3pm, virtual at 5pm. In a welcoming and supportive setting, find fellowship among others who share their experiences and understand the pain of loss. Meetings will be held on the 4th Sunday this month, at no charge to you. Please join us for an hour of listening, healing, and finding comfort with others who understand.
