Only saints can sanctify the Church and convert the world. The goal of this conference is to provide practical instruction for the faithful:

• Prepare For Judgment
• Become A Saint
• Sanctify the Church
• Convert the World

Fr John Wachowicz will be coming back to St. Francis of Assisi Church in Greenlawn (on Long Island) for an evening of reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and a traditional sung Latin Mass for the  feast of St. Mary Magdalene, the prototype of the repentant adorer of Jesus.

On Wednesday, July 22, from 6:30 to 7:30, there will be a Holy Hour of Reparation to the Sacred Heart, with Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament. Fr. John will be available for confession during the Holy Hour. Mass will follow at about 7:40. The miraculous Missionary Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe will be present and will stay for veneration after Mass. She is also available for events in or outside your churches, Rosary walks, home and hospital visits, etc. Please text Jane Schiano Wigatow at 631-827-2510 if you are interested or have an idea for her.

St. Francis Church has reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus every Wednesday from 630-730 pm. Sadly, attendance at this, which has been going on for about 40 years, has dwindled just at the time when we need it the most! The Blessed Sacrament is usually exposed, and beautiful prayers of reparation for sin are offered.

St. Rocco, Glen Cove: Missa Solemnis for the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, Thursday, July 16th at 5:30pm, Consecration and distribution of the brown scapular will precede Mass at 5:00pm

St. Matthew, Dix Hills, From the bulletin: “The former regular Sunday celebration of the Extraordinary Form Latin Mass in the Chapel is simply not doable as things are now. However, the last Sunday of the month the 12:30pm Mass in the church will be celebrated in the Extraordinary Form.”

St. Rosalie, Hampton Bays: The Latin Mass will continue to be held at the Hampton Bays location (not East Quogue) at 12:45pm on the first, third, and fourth Sundays.

We received this letter from the St. Gregory Society:

We rejoice that after these long months of liturgical eclipse owing to the corona virus pandemic, regular public celebration of the Eucharist will resume in the Archdiocese of Hartford next weekend.  The Traditional Latin Masses at St. Stanislaus Church will resume with the First Friday Mass on July 3 at 8:00 am, and Sunday Mass at 2:00 pm on July 5.   

We include here the note from the Pastor regarding the reopening:

Dear Parishioners,

It is with great joy that I share with you the long-awaited news. Archbishop Blair has made the decision to open the churches for Sunday Masses next weekend, July 4th & 5th, with a limit of 100 people per Mass. If people are maintaining the six-foot distance between them, after marking off the pews, there are 60 single places in our church. Taking into account the fact that the people coming to Mass are often spouses and families who may sit together, it is apparent that in our situation, there is room for all. Masses will be celebrated according to the normal Sunday schedule. In addition to maintaining a six-foot distance, there is an obligation to wear a mask as soon as you enter the church. I am already filled with joy in anticipation of our meeting after such a long hiatus. I greet you cordially and assure you of my prayers. I look forward to when we will see each other again!!!

Fr. Tadeusz
