From the Desk of Fr. Pat

Desde el Escritorio de P. Pat

As we begin this year focusing on our call to holiness, this month of January is filled with examples of saints of our Salesian family! On January 8th, we celebrated the feast of Blessed Titus Zeman, a Salesian priest from Slovakia. He was captured by the communist and tortured for helping young seminarians escape into free Europe to continue their studies for the priesthood. He died in 1951 as a martyr. On January 15th, we celebrated the feast of Blessed Luigi Variara, a young Salesian missionary who left his homeland of Italy and his family to go to work with the lepers in Agua de Dios, Columbia. He was just 48 years old when he died in 1923. He also founded a congregation of Sisters, The Daughters of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, to care for the sick and who work in many places in the world today. On January 22nd, we celebrate the feast of Blessed Laura Vicuña, a young Chilean girl who studied with the Salesian Sisters. Laura offered her life for the conversion of her mother. She was only 12 years old when she died in 1904 in Argentina. On January 31st, we celebrate the feast of our father, founder, friend and patron, Don Bosco. Don Bosco gave his life totally and completely for the young; he died in 1888 at age 72 of exhaustion from work! Here, in the parish, we will celebrate his feast next weekend with our Youth Rally on Saturday and our Sunday celebrations. We will also have our Triduum and sermons in preparation for his feast. On January 24th, we will celebrate the feast of St. Francis de Sales. Don Bosco chose him as our patron because of his reputation for kindness, charity, patience and simple goodness— virtues which Don Bosco believed to be most important if you are working with the young. It is from him, we Salesians get our name: Society of St. Francis de Sales. Each of these persons are great saints. Each is very different. Each lived at a different time, in a different place with a different mission. Yet, each was rooted in the “Salesian Spirit”. How can we understand that spirit and how can we root ourselves in it? At the top of all the letters and papers he wrote, St. Francis de Sales would write the words Live Jesus! For him, and for every person who follows his spirituality, it means the name of Jesus is engraved on one’s heart and in one’s mind. As one writer puts it: It was to allow that name to become one’s own true name, to allow one’s entire self— body, thoughts, affections, actions, decisions, work, devotion— to be animated by the reality of the person known by that name. To allow Jesus to live one did not simply learn about Jesus or pray to Jesus or even imitate Jesus. One surrendered the vital center of one’s being— one’s heart, as understood in the wholistic biblical sense— to another living presence. The Pauline dictum “I no longer live but Christ lives in me is at the core of the distinctive Salesian inscription.” To be “Salesian” means to be rooted in one’s baptism and so strive to live each day— in the ordinary daily duties of every day life— as Jesus Himself would live. To be Salesian means to Live Jesus! As we approach the Feast of Don Bosco we ask him, in a special way, to help us live more like Jesus in our relationships with God and with one another as the road to holiness! Live Jesus! God bless you!

Al empezar este año enfocándonos a nuestro llamado a la santidad, este mes de enero está lleno de santos ejemplare de nuestra familia salesiana! El 8 de enero celebramos la fiesta del Beato Tito Zeman, un sacerdote salesiano de Eslovaquia. Él fue Capturado por los comunistas y torturado por ayudar a los jóvenes seminaristas en la Europa libre para continuar sus estudios para el sacerdocio. Murió en 1951 como mártir. El 15 de enero celebramos la fiesta del Beato Luigi Variara, un joven misionero salesiano quien dejó su Patria de Italia y su familia para ir a trabajar con los leprosos en Agua de Dios, Colombia. Tenía solo 48 años cuando murió en 1923. El también fundó una congregación de Hermanas, Las Hijas de los Sagrados Corazones de Jesús y María, para cuidar a los enfermos y que trabajaron en muchos lugares del mundo hoy en día. El 22 de enero celebramos la fiesta de la Beata Laura Vicuña, una joven chilena que estudió con las Hermanas Salesianas. Laura ofreció su vida por la conversión de su madre. Ella tenía solo 12 años cuando murió en 1904 en Argentina. El 31 de enero celebramos la fiesta de nuestro padre, fundador, amigo y patrón, Don Bosco. Don Bosco dio su vida total y completamente para los jóvenes. murió en 1888 a las 72 años de agotamiento laboral! Aquí, en la parroquia, celebraremos su fiesta el próximo fin de semana con nuestro Rally Juvenil el Sábado y nuestras celebraciones dominicales. También tendremos nuestro Triduo y sermones en preparación para su fiesta. El 24 de enero celebraremos la fiesta de San Francis de Sales. Don Bosco lo eligió como nuestro patrón por su reputación de amabilidad, caridad, paciencia y simple bondad, virtudes que Don Bosco creía ser las más importantes si es que estás trabajando con los jóvenes. Es de él, que nosotros los salesianos obtenemos nuestro nombre: Sociedad de San Francisco de Sales. Cada una de estas personas son grandes santos. Cada una es muy diferente. Cada uno vivió en un momento diferente, en un lugar diferente con una misión diferente. Sin embargo, cada uno de ellos estaba arraigado en el "Espíritu Salesiano". ¿Cómo podemos entender ese espíritu y cómo podemos enraizarnos en él? En la parte superior de todas las cartas y papeles que escribía, San Francisco de Sales escribiría las palabras ¡Vive Jesús! Para él, y para cada persona que sigue su espiritualidad, significa que el nombre de Jesús está grabado en el corazón y en la mente de uno. Como lo dice un escritor: Era para permitir que ese nombre se convirtiera en el verdadero nombre de uno, para permitir que todo su ser: cuerpo, pensamientos, afectos, acciones, decisiones, trabajo, devoción, ser animado por la realidad de la persona conocida por ese nombre. Al permitir que Jesús viva en uno, no solo aprendió sobre Jesús o rezarle a Jesús o incluso imitar a Jesús. Uno entregó el centro vital de su ser, el corazón de uno, tal como se entiende en el sentido bíblico holístico, a otra presencia viva. El dicho paulino “Ya no vivo, pero Cristo vive en mí, es el núcleo de la inscripción salesiana distintiva”. Ser "salesiano" significa estar enraizado en el bautismo de uno y así esforzarse por vivir cada día, en los deberes cotidianos de la vida cotidiana, como lo haría Jesús mismo. ¡Ser salesiano significa vivir a Jesús! Mientras nos acercamos a la fiesta de Don Bosco le pedimos, de una manera especial, para ayudarnos a vivir más como Jesús en nuestra relaciones con Dios y entre unos con otros como el camino a ¡santidad! ¡Vive Jesús! ¡Dios te bendiga!

Da mesa do pároco Começamos o ano focalizando na santidade e vemos que este mês está cheio se santos de nossa Família Salesiana. 8 de janeiro, bem aventurado Titus Zermianni padre slovaquio capturado pelos comunistas e torturado por ajudar os seminaristas ir à Europa continuar seus estudos. Ele morreu em 1951 como mártir. 15 de janeiro, bem aventurado Luis Variara, um jovem missionário que deixou a Itália, sua terra natal para trabalhar com leprosos em Água de Dios, Columbia. Ele morreu com apenas 49 anos de idade, no ano de 1923. Ele fundou uma congregação feminina, as Irmãs do Sagrado Coração de Jesus e Maria para cuidar dos doentes e estão bem espalhadas pelo mundo hoje. 22 de janeiro bem aventurada Laura Vicunha, uma menina chilena aluna das irmãs salesianas. Ela ofereceu a sua vida pela conversão de sua mãe. Ela tinha 12 anos quando morreu na Argentina. 31 de janeiro celebramos a festa de nosso patrono e fundador São João Bosco. Ele gastou toda a sua vida em favor dos jovens. Ele morreu em 1888 aos 72 anos de idade exausto pelo trabalho. Aqui na paróquia vamos celebrar a festa no fim de semana, sábado e domingo, após um triduo de preparação para a festa. 24 de janeiro, São Francisco de Sales que inspirou o nome salesiano pela sua bondade, caridade, paciência e doçura - virtudes extremamente importantes no trabalho com os jovens. A nossa congregação e chamada de Sociedade de São Francisco de Sales. Cada um desses santos e muito diferente um do outro, mas todos são grandes santos. O que eles têm em comum e que todos foram formados no carisma salesiano. Como podemos entender esse carisma e nos inserirmos nele? No timbre de suas cartas São Francisco de Sales escreveria VIVA JESUS! Para sua espiritualidade o nome de Jesus está encravado no coração e na mente de cada pessoa. Ser salesiano significa estar enraizado no Batismo e se esforçar para vive-lo a cada dia nas atividades mais simples do nosso dia como Jesus o faria. Ser Salesiano significa VIVER COMO JESUS VIVIA. Aproximando da festa de Dom Bosco que ele nos ajude a ser mais parecido com Jesus nas nossas relações com Deus e com o próximo tornado real a santidade. VIVA JESUS! Que Deus te abençoe!

Welcome Home, Father Tim Ploch!!

From January 31st to February 4th, our parish will have with us , Fr. Tim Ploch, who, in the name of the Salesian Rector Major, will be making the extraordinary Canonical Visitation of our Salesian mission in Port Chester. Fr. Tim will be spending 4 months in our province visiting every local Salesian Community— ours will be the first!! Fr. Tim, who served as pastor of Holy Rosary for nine years, is certainly no stranger to many of us and we all welcome him home! Tim was born in 1946 in Paterson, NJ. He says that he was born with Salesian spirit in his blood because the Salesian Sisters raised his mother, Dolores, who was an orphan. Tim entered Don Bosco Juniorate in Haverstraw in 1960. The Juniorate moved the following year to Goshen, NY, and became Salesian Junior Seminary, when Tim graduated in 1964. he entered the novitiate in Newton, NJ, that fall and made his first profession on Aug. 16, 1965. He did his practical training at the Salesian High School in Cedar Lake, Ind. (1969-1972), followed by theological studies at the Pontifical College Josephinum in Columbus, Ohio, from 1972 to 1976, where he earned a master’s degree in theology. He was ordained in Westerville, Ohio, in 1976. Fr. Tim’s Salesian Priestly ministry has taken him to Salesian Junior Seminary in Goshen as principal (1976-1981), Don Bosco Prep in Ramsey, NJ, as principal (1981-1985), Salesian Center in Columbus as director of the students of theology and Salesian Boys & Girls Club 91985-1991). From 1991 to 1997 he served as Provincial Superior for the eastern Province of the United States. After his term as U.S. East provincial, he had a sabbatical in Guadalajara, Mexico, to improve his Spanish. On his return to the province in 1998, he served as coordinator of campus ministry at LaSalle HS in Miami (1998-1999) and then was named pastor of Holy Rosary Parish in Port Chester, NY, and director of the Salesian community in that village (also including Corpus Christi Parish). He remained in Port Chester until 2009 when he was appointed Provincial Superior of the Western Province of the United States. In 2014, he was elected to the Salesian General Council in Rome as the Regional Counselor for the International Region, which encompasses the 2 U.S. provinces and the provinces of Mexico (2), Central America, the Antilles, Haiti, Colombia (2), Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia.
