During the season of Lent we will be praying the Stations of the Cross every week leading up to Holy Week.  This will be on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 PM.  I hope that everyone will plan on participating in at least two of these gatherings and that you will urge your families, friends and neighbors to attend as well.  This is a beautiful and moving form of worship and it helps to focus our thoughts and prayers on our Lord and Savior as we reflect on His Passion and Death. Preceding worship, every Wednesday at 6:00 PM, we will be offering a light Lenten Meal served in the Fellowship Hall.  All are welcome and there will be no charge, although Free Will Offerings will be accepted.  I hope to see many of you there.

This Wednesday is Ash Wednesday.  The season of Great Lent begins. In order to accommodate the most people, there will be two Masses this day, 9:00 AM and 7:00 PM.  Ashes will be blessed and distributed to the faithful at both Masses.  I hope to see many of you there. 

The Liturgical Season of Pre-Lent, sometimes referred to as Shrovetide, begins today as we celebrate Septuagesima Sunday.  The PNCC continues to observe this season although other rites have abandoned it.  It is marked by the use of Rose colored vestments and a period of merrymaking including Mardi Gras before the solemn observance of Lent begins on Ash Wednesday which falls on February 22^nd this year.

Wishing everyone a Happy, Healthy and prosperous New Year! 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

 On behalf of the Parish Committee, myself and my daughter, Danielle, I would like to wish each and every one of you a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy, Blessed and most prosperous New Year!

Advent is here, and here are some changes that people often notice in Church. Probably the most obvious of these is that the color of the vestments changes to violet or blue. On the Third Sunday of Advent, which is also called Gaudete Sunday, as the Advent season is already half over, the joy of the Nativity begins to break in and on that day rose colored vestments may be used.  Also, the hymn Glory to God in the highest.is omitted at Mass, and one will find that there is a certain moderation in the decoration of the altar. While flowers may still be used, the decoration of the altar should not express the full joy of the Nativity of the Lord.

The Ladies Society for the Adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament (ANS) will be holding an all you can eat Pot Pie Dinner on Sunday, November 6th at 12:00 noon in the Fellowship Hall.  Pot Pie, Cole Slaw and rolls. Tickets are available from Cheryl Weinhold, Mary Cooper, Eleanor Kaczmarczyk and Fr. Sr. Donald.  They are $10.00 for ADULTS and $5.00 for CHILDREN ten years of age and under.  Take out is available as well; $10.00 for one quart of Pot Pie, Cole Slaw and two rolls.  Please purchase your tickets now so we know how much we need to make.

Wednesday, November 2nd is All Souls Day.  We will honor the souls of our departed loved ones by celebrating Holy Mass, reading their names aloud and lighting a battery powered tea candle for each name read.  Mass will be at 7:00PM and i hope to see many of you there.

COME AND BE A PART OF THE CELEBRATION

A very special event will take place on the evening of Saturday, October 22nd at 7:30 pm when the international concert organist, Gail Archer will perform at the Saint Stanislaus Cathedral in a concert to culminate the festivities of celebration of the 125th Anniversary of our beloved Polish National Catholic Church.  The concert will be performed on the magnificent Austin organ at the Saint Stanislaus Cathedral that consists of 3 manuals. It has 41 ranks, 45 stops and 2,327 pipes.  Ms. Archer will play works by Polish composers including Nowowiejski, Bacewicz, Gorecki, and Paciorkiewicz, to name a few.

Ms. Archer’s 2019 European tour took her to the British Isles, Italy, Spain, Ukraine, Poland, Russia and Malta, and she is dedicated to shedding a light on Polish organ music in this country and the world. Her new CD Polish organ music CD, Cantius, was released in March of 2022. One of the pieces we will hear that evening is Improvisation on a Polish Hymn (Kto sie opieke, Blessed Is He) by Surszynski. We hope you  will come and celebrate our beloved Polish National Catholic Church.

Experience a world class artist performing rare works which are so relevant to our denomination’s Polish heritage. There  is no charge for the concert. Bring your family and friends!
