Pastor’s Letter What’s in a Name? June 8/9 Dear Parish Family, It was just one year ago on May 27, 2012, that our beautiful church was dedicated as a Basilica Parish. The Mass of Dedication formalized the Papal Decree of November 21, 2011 and gave to us a new name — The Basilica Parish of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary. For many people a name does not mean much, but in the bible and in Catholic tradition a name marks a new identity and a new mission. When Jesus gave Simon the name Peter (the Rock) it was a sign that Peter’s discipleship would have special meaning to the Church. At Confirmation each of us received a new name to mark our identity as part of a long history of Saints who live the gospel by the power of the Spirit. What has our new name meant to us? A good hint lies in the answer to the question: What is a Basilica? I am sure you have been asked this more than a few times. The answer is that it is an honor given to a Church because of its architectural, historical, and cultural or spiritual significance. Architecture is perhaps the most easily seen. Sacred Hearts is a beautiful Church. But more than that, it is a place that speaks the peace and the love of God to everyone who comes here. Just to be in this place brings us closer to God. Our history is equally special. Sacred Hearts was built at the very end of a period of great church building for Catholics in the United States. We often forget that Catholics had been a minority in this country and that the great Churches built in the 19th century were a matter of pride and presence. The building of churches made a statement about our dignity and importance to our nation and its culture. In our own time we have had some difficult years as Catholics and it is good for us to feel and to express a sense of pride in our religion and its traditions. More locally, our parish holds a unique place in the life and spirituality of an immigrant Catholic people who lived in this part of Long Island. These first parishioners built our Church with an amazing spirit of sacrifice and determination. This spirit lives on today and can be seen in the diversity of cultures, languages, and status of those who call this Church their home. Sacred Hearts is indeed a special place. Our new name celebrates a long standing history and mission of all of us who call this home. The Basilica Parish of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary is a place of beauty, a reminder of rich history, and an ongoing place of service. May we always be a community where all are welcome. Sincerely yours in Christ, Rev. Michael A.

BARNES Executive Director Statement of the Bishops of New York State Following is a statement of Timothy Cardinal Dolan and the Bishops of New York State: We are profoundly distressed by the introduction of a bill in New York State today that would ease restrictions in state law on late-term abortion and runs the serious risk of broadly expanding abortion access at all stages of gestation. This legislation would add a broad and undefined “health” exception for late-term abortion and would repeal the portion of the penal law that governs abortion policy, opening the door for non-doctors to perform abortions and potentially decriminalizing even forced or coerced abortions. In addition, we find the conscience protection in the bill to be vague and insufficient, and we are concerned about the religious liberty of our health facilities. While the bill’s proponents say it will simply “codify” federal law, it is selective in its codification. Nowhere does it address the portions of federal laws that limit abortion, such as the ban on taxpayer funding, the ban on partial birth abortion or protections for unborn victims of violence. As the pastors of more than 7.2 million Catholic New Yorkers, we fully oppose this measure, and urge all our faithful people to do the same, vigorously and unapologetically. We invite all women and men of good will to join in this effort and defeat this serious attempt to expand abortion availability in our state and to codify the most radical abortion proposals of any state in the nation. We support the first nine points in the Governor’s agenda that enhance the true dignity of women. We commit ourselves to examining those proposals and working with the legislature on any and all efforts that help guarantee real equity for all women and men. Our position on these issues will be consistent with all the efforts of the Catholic Church throughout the world to enhance the dignity of women. The direct taking of the life of a child in the womb in no way enhances a woman’s dignity. Instead of expanding abortion and making abortions even more prevalent, we would like to protect both the woman and the child in the womb. In New York, where one in every three pregnancies ends in abortion (and upwards of 6 in 10 in certain communities), it is clear that we as a state have lost sight of that child’s dignity. We pledge all our efforts to defeat this proposal. We call on all pro-life New Yorkers to stand together with us and with all the leadership in Albany who share our conviction that we have no need for such a bill to become law. We need instead to enhance and promote the life and dignity of all human beings from the moment of conception to the moment of natural death.

Rincón de Información autor © 2012, World Library Publications. Todos los derechos reservados Dios ha Visitado a su Pueblo - "No llores", dijo Jesús a la viuda que había perdido a su único hijo. Con sólo tocar el ataúd del joven, éste vuelve a la vida y habla. La muchedumbre que acompañaba a la viuda alaba a Dios, exclamando: "Dios ha visitado a su pueblo". Las lecturas de hoy muestran la gran compasión de Dios por las mujeres y por todos los débiles. El mundo en que vivimos está lleno de problemas: mujeres que perdieron hijos y marido, multitudes sin trabajo, familias en países extranjeros esperando ansiosas la ayuda económica que sus queridos emigrantes les envían, etc. Las lecturas también nos muestran acción: Jesús se conmueve y toca; el joven habla; la muchedumbre alaba.

Padre Esteban: Cel: 631-375-1001; Fax: 631-2870986 Apostolado Hispano: 631-283-4379 APOSTOLADO HISPANO ¿Te Puedes Imaginar Esto? - Hoy encontramos dos historias excepcionales en la primera lectura del primer libro de Reyes y en el Evangelio según san Lucas. En la primera lectura Elías visita la casa de una viuda, cuyo hijo se enferma durante esta visita hasta que finalmente deja de respirar. Elías ora a Dios, el aliento del niño regresa a su cuerpo y Elías se lo entrega a su madre. En el Evangelio escuchamos la extraordinaria historia del hijo de otra viuda. Pero en este instante el hijo de la viuda ya está muerto y sus restos descansan en un ataúd. Éste es uno de esos milagros que nos atraen vívidamente. ¿Te puedes imaginar encontrarte en medio de la gente, que está cerca del ataúd y ver al joven que se sienta y comienza a hablar cuando Jesús le manda levantarse? En un impresionante paralelo con la primera lectura Jesús le entrega el joven a su madre. Se nos dice que el temor se apoderó de la gente. Lo próximo que hicieron fue alabar a Dios. Por Jerry Galipeau Derechos de Curso Pre-Bautismal Domingo, 30 de junio, a la 1:30 PM en el Apostolado o las 5 PM en la iglesia en East Hampton Favor de llevar la copia del acta de nacimiento del niño. Bautizos en Southampton serán el 7 de julio, el 4 de agosto, el 1º de septiembre y el 6 de octubre. Kid’s Page Tenth Sunday in Ordinary Time June 9, 2013
