Roman Catholic Diocese of Paterson

World Youth Day begins tonight in Lisbon, Portugal and our Diocesan pilgrims are in the host city seeing many landmarks.

From Bishop Kevin Sweeney:

Happy Feast of St. Alphonsus Liguori🙏

Yesterday afternoon we arrived in Lisbon & I met up with the US Bishops. Last night we attended a reception at the US Embassy - see photo with the Ambassador Randi Charno Levine.

This morning we took a walking tour of the City of Lisbon, birthplace of St. Anthony of Padua (here they call him "St. Anthony of Lisbon”).

Here are highlights - starting with the Cathedral of St. Mary Major, where I learned that Lisbon has "co-patron" saints: St. Anthony & their "original patron": St. Vincent the Martyr (shout out to St. Vincent's in Madison). See photo of stained glass windows.

Tonight we will be praying especially for you & your intentions at the WYD Opening Mass🙏 Please keep praying for us 🙏

On Aug. 16-20, the relic of St. Andre Besette (1845-1937), the first saint of the Congregation of Holy Cross, who lived much of his life in Quebec, Canada, will be coming to the Paterson Diocese. Several parishes will host the relic and the faithful is invited to participate.

The Canadian saint is often attributed to the quote "Go to Joseph" because of his strong devotion to St. Joseph.

Our Diocesan pilgrims are on the move and now on a bus to their next stop to participate in World Youth Day activities📍Lisbon, Portugal.

From Bishop Kevin Sweeney:
We completed Day #2 (Sunday) participating again with the Beautiful (International) Rosary & candlelight procession in Fatima🙏

We had an early start to Day 3, 7/31, the Feast of St. Ignatius Loyola, with Mass at the Apparition Chapel, with an "International", English-speaking community, from Australia, Canada & U.S.A. - with our own Deacon Sebastian serving as Deacon of the Altar.

After Mass: a group photo, breakfast, & now waiting in front of the "Alleluia Hotel" to board the bus for Lisbon - we're praying for you & your intentions, please keep us in your prayers. 🙏🙏🙏

Photos from Day 2 of our Diocesan contingent on the World Youth Day pilgrimage. 📍Fatima, Portugal.

From Bishop Kevin Sweeney:
What a Blessing to concelebrate Sunday Mass with Cardinal Sean O'Malley of Boston at the main outdoor Altar of the Sanctuary of Fatima.

Also, a privilege for the Paterson Diocese that our Deacon Joe DeMarzo was chosen to serve as Deacon of the Altar. We prayed for your intentions at Mass, please continue to pray for us🙏

Today our young people also walked in the footsteps of the three children of Fatima.

The route includes the children's house and passing the Angel of Peace (Loca do Anjo), where the children received the visit. Our group walked the entire route in silence along with many other groups from other countries.

Last night, our Diocesan pilgrims to World Youth Day participated in the Candlelight Procession of Our Lady of Fatima at the Shrine of Our Lady of Fatima, site of the 1917 apparitions in Portugal.

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us.

Our Diocesan pilgrims have made it to Portugal and Bishop Kevin Sweeney has shared some photos and a message. First stop:📍Santarem, Portugal.

From the Bishop:
“Thanks be to God & our Blessed Mother, we arrived “safe & sound”. We went from the airport to “Santarém” - the site of a Eucharistic Miracle from the 13th Century.

We then arrived in Fatima and are getting some rest in the afternoon. To be continued… We’re praying for you. Please pray for us 🙏”

The Diocesan contingent traveling to World Youth Day (WYD) in Lisbon, Portugal has begun their journey. At noon today, Bishop Kevin Sweeney celebrated Mass with the young people at the Diocesan Shrine of St. Pope John Paul II in Passaic.

From the Bishop:
We're on our way - no better way to begin a pilgrimage with Mass and no better way to begin WYD than with Mass at the Diocesan Shrine of St. Pope JP II in Passaic!!

We have already begun praying for the intentions of all those in the Diocese who are joining us in prayer.

Our Lady of Fatima, Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us! 🙏🙏🙏

Stay tuned for photos this upcoming week from Portugal!

Tomorrow, Bishop Kevin Sweeney and 43 diocesan youths and adults, including parents, chaperones and seminarians will be traveling to Lisbon, Portugal to participate in World Youth Day, which begins Aug. 1. Pope Francis will be attending the weeklong celebration.

The Bishop wrote in his column this week:
St. John Paul II established World Youth Day in 1985. Since then, young Catholics from all over the world gather with the Holy Father every two to three years, coming together in prayer, fellowship, catechetical sessions, and in a joyful celebration of faith. I had the privilege of attending my first WYD in Denver, Colo., in 1993, after my first year in the major seminary. It was a very important moment that helped me to discern my vocation and grow in my appreciation of the “universality” of our Catholic faith. It was also an opportunity to witness Pope St. John Paul II interact and pray with hundreds of thousands of young people, seeming to inspire and speak to the heart of each and every one of them.

Father Marc Mancini, judicial vicar for the Tribunal of the Paterson Diocese, recently wrote an article in the Beacon to explain the annulment process.

Father Mancini, who also serves as pastor of St. James the Marches Parish in Totowa, writes: “Sometimes, even though a man and a woman enter a marriage with the best of intentions and great hopefulness for the future, it may end badly. Thankfully, the Roman Catholic Church has a process to determine if a marriage that ended badly may be declared invalid.”

This week in the Beacon, Bishop Kevin Sweeney writes about St. Gianna Beretta Molla, a modern day saint, who is patron of mothers, physicians and unborn babies.

The Bishop writes:
“I decided to write about Dr. Molla’s (St. Gianna Molla’s daughter) testimony because I am not sure how many Catholics are aware of the life and example of St. Gianna. In addition to her biography, there is a very good article on her life and death (she died seven days after the birth of her last child, now Dr. Gianna).”

Bishop Kevin J. Sweeney presided over the 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Masses in Spanish on July 9 in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Paterson. Concelebrating both Masses was Msgr. Geno Sylva, St. John’s rector and diocesan vicar for special projects. The Bishop was helping Msgr. Sylva with the Spanish Masses, because the cathedral’s parochial vicars were away that weekend. Assisting the priests that weekend were Deacon Guido Pedraza and Deacon German Vargas.

Last week, 54 young men took the first step in discovering their vocation — to married, religious, or single life — by asking Jesus a simple but powerful question, “Where do you want me to go?”

On a sunny June 29, these high-school-age Catholic men descended on Shiloh Bible Camp in the Hewitt neighborhood of West Milford for the Quo Vadis Day 2023 discernment retreat. There, Bishop Kevin J. Sweeney and participating priests and seminarians urged retreatants to develop a relationship with Christ as they ask him about their life’s calling. The day’s busy schedule included vocations talks, a Mass, adoration, and a rosary hike; sports and outdoor activities; and Bishop Sweeney’s first-ever remote broad­cast of his Beyond The Beacon podcast.

From Bishop Kevin Sweeney during this extended holiday weekend:

Today on July 3rd, together with the whole Church, we celebrate the Feast of St. Thomas, the Apostle.

Tomorrow on July 4th, as a country, we give thanks & celebrate “Independence Day”. I recently heard a true story that reminded me that, in the United States, there is still “a place called hope” and that our country is still blessed by people of faith, HOPE, love, & incredible generosity & gratitude.

The story also reminds us of a lesson from Mitch Albom’s book, “Tuesdays with Morrie” that, “giving feels like living”. I heard the story referenced in the latest episode of Malcolm Gladwell’s “Revisionist History” podcast, “A Good Circle.” I hope you can take/find the time to listen … and be inspired by “a place called HOPE”.

With great joy, Bishop Kevin J. Sweeney ordained two men from parishes in Paterson and Passaic as priests of the diocese during a Mass he celebrated on June 24 in the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist in Paterson. The bishop urged these two newest priests of the diocese “to get ready and be well prepared to serve the Church in challenging and exciting times” — both now and in the future.

Castaños Rodríguez of St. Anthony of Padua Parish in Paterson and Father Krzysztof Tyszko of Holy Rosary Parish/Diocesan Shrine of St. John Paul II, in Passaic. Father Castaños was born in the Domini­can Republic. Father Tyszko was born in the United States to Polish-born parents.

Bishop Kevin J. Sweeney joined the faithful of St. Gerard Majella Church in Paterson in bidding a formal farewell to the spirit-filled Vocationist priests and sisters who served this ethnically diverse faith community for 15 years. Mem­bers of the locally based religious order have continued the parish’s rich legacy of opening its doors, hearts, and helping hands to all people who seek God.

The Vocationists, members of the Society of Divine Vocations, assumed leadership of St. Gerard’s from the Paterson Diocese in 2008 at the request of Bishop Arthur J. Serratelli. This summer, the religious order will hand the administration of the parish back to the diocese. Effec­tive July 1, Msgr. George Hundt, pastor of St. Vin­cent Martyr Parish in Madison, will become administrator of St. Gerard’s while continuing as pastor of St. Vincent’s. Msgr. Hundt first served as the parish’s pastor from 1995 to 2002.

The diocese held an Evening of Eucharistic Revival at the Church of Corpus Christi in Chatham Township on June 11, the Feast of Corpus Christi.

Individuals and families were invited “to come and pray and learn and grow in understanding of who God is and what he calls us to be,” said Father Agustino Torres. He is a Franciscan Friar of the Renewal who serves as campus-ministry chaplain at William Paterson University in Wayne and is one of the National Eucharistic Preachers.

Father Agustino and Bishop Kevin J. Sweeney led the Eucharistic Revival, which included adoration, praise, worship, and Benediction to enhance participants’ understanding of, love for, and living out of the Holy Eucharist.

Earlier that day at Corpus Christi, Bishop Sweeney held a special event for children who received first Holy Communion this year and catechists, which included a catechesis on the Eucharist, adoration, a procession, and Benediction.

Along with the Church in the United States, the Paterson Diocese is in the second year of a three-year National Eucharistic Revival that is meant to demonstrate how the wonders of the true presence of Jesus can heal the soul — and change the lives of Catholics and non-Catholics alike.

Today we celebrate fathers and Bishop Kevin Sweeney shares his greetings:

Happy Father’s Day (Cheers!! Slainte!!) to all our Dads!! Here’s another picture of my Dad, may he Rest in Peace🙏, from my parents’ Wedding Album.

For this Father’s Day, sharing a playlist of songs about fathers.

There’s a beautiful Irish song about a son’s (or daughter’s) love for his/her father. It’s called “The Old Man”. One version of the song is by Phil Coulter.

Some other beautiful “Father-Son” (or Father & Child) songs: “Cat’s in the Cradle” by Harry Chapin - which should come with a reminder that no one (no parent) is perfect. The father in this song is very hard on himself.

There’s also (perhaps a little known song, from the ‘80’s) “In the Living Years” by Mike & the Mechanics.

Another, a little before my time, but I really like is “Father & Son” by Cat Stevens.

Comment below to share any other songs about dads.

St. Joseph, pray for all our fathers!
