 A MESSAGE FROM THE PASTOR 
12 JULY 2015
CAN THE FIRST SMILE LAST?
Ever since my arrival on 25 June 2008 as the Parish of Our Holy Redeemer’s tenth Pastor,
(by the way: “I would like to thank all of you who helped me commemorate my seventh anniversary
on 25 June 2015 with an increase of 25 Cents More in your weekly Offering. That 25 Cents is making a
difference)
we have regularly prayed for an increase in Vocations to the Priesthood. Over these years, those prayers have
brought us more than just 25 Cents More a Week and the many things that it pays for; those prayers have
brought us Seminarians who went on to be Priests, Priests who went on for further studies in Rome, and Bishops
who went home to God. Never before the arrival of Father Alessandro however, have our prayers for an
increase in Vocations to the Priesthood during that time, brought a newly Ordained Priest home to Our Holy
Redeemer! Here’s how the Most Reverend William F. Murphy, Bishop of Rockville Centre put it in a letter he
wrote to Father Alessandro five days before ordaining him a Priest:
“It is my pleasure to appoint you as Associate Pastor at the Church of Our Holy Redeemer in
Freeport where Reverend Douglas Arcoleo is the Pastor. This assignment commences on
Wednesday, June 24, 2015 at twelve o’clock noon, through June 2020.”
Father Alessandro’s first assignment commenced on 24 June 2015 just as Bishop Murphy
said it would. And since then he has said his first Mass at Our Holy Redeemer, heard his
first Confession at Our Holy Redeemer, Anointed his first dying person at Our Holy
Redeemer, spent his first day “on Duty” at Our Holy Redeemer, and made his first
appearance as a Priest of Our Holy Redeemer on the Nautical Mile. In all of these things
and more, our newly Ordained Priest has given our Parish a “lift” (and so have many
others as you can see from the following page).
Please pray that the joy of being a Priest will remain with him long after he celebrates all
his “firsts”, and that the smile with which he has begun his service will last.

The Family - 6. The Elderly
Dear Brothers and Sisters, Good morning!
Today’s catechesis and next Wednesday’s will be dedicated to the elderly, who in the family are the
grandparents, aunts and uncles. Today we will reflect on the current problematic condition of the elderly,
and next time, that is, next Wednesday, on a more positive note, on the vocation pertaining to this stage of
life.
Thanks to the progress of medicine life-spans have increased: but society has not “expanded” to life! The
number of elderly has multiplied, but our societies are not organized well enough to make room for them,
with proper respect and practical consideration for their frailty and their dignity. While we are young, we
are led to ignore old age, as if it were a disease to keep away from; then when we become old, especially if
we are poor, if we are sick and alone, we experience the shortcomings of a society programmed for
efficiency, which consequently ignores its elderly. And the elderly are a wealth not to be ignored.
Benedict XVI, visiting a home for the elderly, used clear and prophetic words, saying in this way: “The quality
of a society, I mean of a civilization, is also judged by how it treats elderly people and by the place it gives
them in community life” (12 November 2012). It’s true, attention to the elderly makes the difference in a
civilization. Is there attention to the elderly in a civilization? Is there room for the elderly? This civilization
will move forward if it knows how to respect wisdom, the wisdom of the elderly. In a civilization in which
there is no room for the elderly or where they are thrown away because they create problems, this society
carries with it the virus of death.
In the West, scientists present the current century as the aging century: children are diminishing, the elderly
are increasing. This imbalance challenges us, indeed, it is a great challenge for contemporary society. Yet a
culture of profit insists on casting off the old like a “weight”. Not only do they not produce — this culture
thinks — but they are a burden: in short, what is the outcome of thinking like this? They are thrown away.
It’s brutal to see how the elderly are thrown away, it is a brutal thing, it is a sin! No one dares to say it
openly, but it’s done! There is something vile in this adherence to the throw-away culture. But we are
accustomed to throwing people away. We want to remove our growing fear of weakness and vulnerability;
but by doing so we increase in the elderly the anxiety of being poorly tolerated and neglected.
During my ministry in Buenos Aires I was in direct contact with this reality and its problems: “The elderly are
abandoned, and not only in material instability. They are abandoned out of a selfish incapacity to accept
their limitations that reflect our own limitations, because of the numerous difficulties that must be overcome
in order to survive in a society that does not allow them to participate, to have their say, or be referents in
the consumer model of ‘only the young can be useful and enjoy’. These elderly persons throughout society
ought to be a reservoir of wisdom for our people. The elderly are the reservoir of wisdom for our people!
How easily the conscience falls dormant when there is no love!” (Solo l’amore ci può salvare, Vatican City,
2013, p. 83).
And it happens like that. I remember, when I was visiting a retirement home, I spoke with each person and I
frequently heard this: “How are you? And your children? Well, well. How many do you have? Many. And do
they come to visit you?. Oh sure, yes, always, yes, they come. When was the last time they came?” I
remember an elderly woman who said to me: “Mmm, for Christmas”. It was August! Eight months without
being visited by her children, abandoned for eight months! This is called mortal sin, understand? Once as a
child, a grandmother told us the story of an old grandfather who got dirty while eating because he couldn't
easily bring the spoonful of soup to his mouth. And his son, that is, the father of the family, had decided to
move him from the dinner table and set up a little table in the kitchen to eat alone, so he couldn’t be seen.
In this way he wouldn’t make a bad impression when friends came over to lunch or dinner. A few days later,
he came home and found his youngest child playing with some wood and a hammer and nails, he was
making something there, he said: “What are you making? — I’m making a table, papa. — A table, why? — To
have one for when you grow old, so that you can eat there”. Children are more aware than we are!
In the tradition of the Church there is a wealth of wisdom that has always supported a culture of closeness to
the elderly, a disposition of warm and supportive companionship in this final phase of life. This tradition is
rooted in Sacred Scripture, as these passages from the Book of Sirach attest: “Do not disregard the discourse
of the aged, for they themselves learned from their fathers; because from them you will gain understanding
and learn how to give an answer in time of need” (Sir 8:9).
The Church cannot and does not want to conform to a mentality of impatience, and much less of
indifference and contempt, towards old age. We must reawaken the collective sense of gratitude, of
appreciation, of hospitality, which makes the elder feel like a living part of his community.
Our elders are men and women, fathers and mothers, who came before us on our own road, in our own
house, in our daily battle for a worthy life. They are men and women from whom we have received so much.
The elder is not an alien. We are that elder: in the near or far future, but inevitably, even if we don’t think it.
And if we don’t learn how to treat the elder better, that is how we will be treated.
We old people are all a little fragile. Some, however, are particularly weak, many are alone, and stricken by
illness. Some depend on the indispensable care and attention of others. Are we going to take a step back?
Abandon them to their fate? A society without proximity, where gratuity and affection without
compensation— between strangers as well — is disappearing, is a perverse society. The Church, faithful to
the Word of God, cannot tolerate such degeneration. A Christian community in which proximity and gratuity
are no longer considered indispensable is a society which would lose her soul. Where there is no honour for
elders, there is no future for the young.

?
Shortly before Christmas 2014, Our Holy Redeemer's
outdoor lift became inoperable. And while it could be
repaired (again) at a cost of a few thousand dollars, I
have decided, after going “up and down” that route a
few times before, that Our Holy Redeemer has spent
enough money on repairs and that it makes more
(dollars and) sense to replace it an estimated cost
(based on the figures of three proposals) of
$40,000.00. In order to help offset that cost, the Parish
has reached out to (and is waiting to hear from) Nassau
County, the Village of Freeport, and private charitable organizations that grant funds
for services that assist the elderly and disabled. Any assistance you can provide will
literally give us a lift!
The following people have begun to lift us up:
Arnold Gallo, William Gallo, The Village of Freeport, the Friends of
Angie Cullin, Alan and Cathy Richartz, John Anzovino, Margaret
Nyland, Diana Gibson, Our Holy Redeemer Parishioners who
participate in the “Oceanside Christopher Federal Credit Union Parish
Revenue Sharing Program”, Mr. & Mrs. Walter Shorak, Gloria Di

With their help we raised nearly $15,000! And with help from you, people on the lift will soon be raised up too!

NEWS FROM THE DE LA SALLE SCHOOL
(516) 379-8660
Because of the generosity of the folks associated with the Old Westbury Summer Camp ten of
our students just concluded two weeks of swimming and other activities on the grounds of
Holy Child Academy in Old Westbury. Transportation costs were covered due to the
contributions made by those who attended our Gala and donated to procure “Camp
Balloons”. Thanks to all who enabled our young men to enrich their summer with this
experience. Each of our students was grateful for this special summer adventure.
In addition, because of the kindness of the owners of Mailbu Beach Club in Lido Beach three of our young men
are participating in their special sleep away program for a week.
It is a special blessing for these thirteen students of The De La Salle School to have the chance to enjoy the
experiences and the change of venue and change of pace that these summer camp opportunities provide for
them.

Scripture Reflection
“Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two” (See Mark 6:7-13).
In today’s readings we find one of the most moving statements from the Old Testament.
The prophet Amos is rejected and asked to leave and prophesy elsewhere. His reply? “I
was a shepherd and a dresser of sycamores. The Lord took me from following the flock,
and said to me, Go, prophesy to my people Israel.” (See Amos 7:12-15) Amos obeyed God.
Our Blessed Mother, Mary, did likewise, when asked by God to bear His Son, she replied:
“I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.” God calls
us from wherever we are, it doesn’t matter how unworthy we may feel, or what our
profession is. He says to us, “Go, prophesy to my people,” and we must. Do you have a
friend, an acquaintance, a family member, a companion at work going in the wrong
direction? Then, you know what God expects you to do. Be like Amos. Obey like Mary.

FAITH AND THE ROMAN MISSAL
PRAYERS FROM THE ROMAN MISSAL THAT YOU MAY NEVER HEAR
(WITH HELP FROM POPE SAINT JOHN PAUL II)
“2. In their journey towards the "mountain of God, Christ the Lord" (Roman Missal, Opening Prayer of the Mass in
honour of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, 16 July), the various generations of Carmel, from the beginning until today,
have sought to model their lives on Mary's example. In Carmel therefore and in every soul moved by tender affection
for the Blessed Virgin and Mother, there has thrived a contemplation of her, who from the beginning knew how to
open herself to hearing God's Word
and to obeying His will (Lk 2: 19, 51).
For Mary, taught and formed by the
Spirit (cf. Lk 2: 44-50), was able by
faith to understand her own history (cf.
Lk 1: 46-55) and, docile to the Divine
promptings,
"advanced
in
her
pilgrimage of faith, and faithfully
persevered in her union with her Son
unto the cross, where she stood, in
keeping with the Divine plan (cf. Jn
19: 25), enduring with her Onlybegotten Son the intensity of His
suffering and associating herself with
His sacrifice in her mother's heart"
(Lumen gentium, n. 58).
3. Contemplation of the Virgin presents
her Son growing up in Nazareth (cf. Lk
Palestine, helps Him at the wedding at
the Cross, becomes the Mother
to all people when Jesus Himself
(cf. Jn 19: 26). As Mother of the
the disciples in "constant prayer" (Acts
anticipates in herself what will one day
enjoyment of Trinitarian life, she is
spreads the protective mantle of her
pilgrimage to the holy mountain of
her to us as a loving Mother who sees
2: 40, 52), follows Him on the roads of
Cana (cf. Jn 2: 5) and, at the foot of
associated with His offering and given
entrusts her to His beloved disciple
Church, the Blessed Virgin is one with
1: 14); as the new Woman who
come to pass for us all in the full
taken up into Heaven from where she
mercy over her children on their
glory.
Such a contemplative attitude of mind and heart prompts admiration for the Virgin's experience of faith and love; she
already lives in herself all that every believer desires and hopes to attain in the mystery of Christ and the Church
(cf. Sacrosanctum Concilium, n. 103; Lumen gentium, n. 53).”

 MENSAJE DEL PASTOR 
12 DE JULIO DE 2015
ANTES DE ESCUCHAR A ESTOS SUPREMOS
ESCUCHE A ESTAS SUPREMAS Y
“DETÉNGASE, …¡PIÉNSELO BIEN!”
RECUERDE, NOSOTROS ESCUCHAMOS A UNA ‘AUTORIDAD SUPERIOR’
“Independientemente de lo que una mayoría estrecha de la Corte Suprema declare en este momento en la historia, la
naturaleza de la persona humana y el matrimonio permanecen inalterables e inmutables. Así como Roe v. Wade no resolvió
el asunto del aborto hace más de cuarenta años. Obergefell v. Hodges no resuelve hoy el asunto del matrimonio. Ninguna
de las dos decisiones se arraiga en la verdad, y como resultado, ambas eventualmente fallarán. Hoy la Corte se ha
equivocado nuevamente. Es profundamente inmoral e injusto que el gobierno declare que dos personas del mismo sexo
pueden constituir un matrimonio.
El significado único del matrimonio como la unión de un hombre y una mujer está marcado en nuestros cuerpos como
hombre y mujer. La protección de este significado es una dimensión esencial de la “ecología integral” que el Papa Francisco
nos ha llamado a promover. Ordenar la redefinición del matrimonio en todo el país es un error trágico que perjudica el bien
común y a los más vulnerables, especialmente a los niños. La ley tiene el deber de apoyar el derecho básico de todo niño a
ser criado, donde sea posible, por su madre y padre casados, y en un hogar estable.
Jesucristo, con gran amor, enseño inequívocamente que desde el principio el matrimonio es la unión permanente de un
hombre y una mujer. Como obispos católicos, seguimos a nuestro Señor y continuaremos enseñando y actuando de
acuerdo con esta verdad.
Exhorto a los católicos a seguir adelante con fe, esperanza y amor: fe en la verdad inmutable sobre el matrimonio, arraigada
en la naturaleza inmutable de la persona humana y confirmada por la revelación divina; esperanza de que estas verdades
una vez más prevalecerán en nuestra sociedad, no sólo por su lógica, sino por su gran belleza y servicio manifiesto al bien
común y el amor al prójimo, incluso a los que nos odian o nos castigarían por nuestra fe y convicciones morales.
Por último, hago un llamado a todas las personas de buena voluntad a acompañarnos en la proclamación de la bondad, la
verdad y la belleza del matrimonio como se ha entendido correctamente desde hace milenios, y pido a todos en posiciones
de poder y autoridad que respeten la libertad dada por Dios de buscar, vivir y dar testimonio de la verdad.”

La Familia - 6. Las Personas Ancianas
Queridos hermanos y hermanas, ¡buenos días!
La catequesis de hoy y la del miércoles próximo están dedicadas a los ancianos, que, en el ámbito de la
familia, son los abuelos, los tíos. Hoy reflexionamos sobre la problemática condición actual de los ancianos, y
la próxima vez, es decir el próximo miércoles, más en positivo, sobre la vocación contenida en esta edad de
la vida.
Gracias a los progresos de la medicina la vida se ha alargado: pero la sociedad no se ha «abierto» a la vida. El
número de ancianos se ha multiplicado, pero nuestras sociedades no se han organizado lo suficiente para
hacerles espacio, con justo respeto y concreta consideración a su fragilidad y dignidad. Mientras somos
jóvenes, somos propensos a ignorar la vejez, como si fuese una enfermedad que hay que mantener alejada;
cuando luego llegamos a ancianos, especialmente si somos pobres, si estamos enfermos y solos,
experimentamos las lagunas de una sociedad programada a partir de la eficiencia, que, como consecuencia,
ignora a los ancianos. Y los ancianos son una riqueza, no se pueden ignorar.
Benedicto XVI, al visitar una casa para ancianos, usó palabras claras y proféticas, decía así: «La calidad de una
sociedad, quisiera decir de una civilización, se juzga también por cómo se trata a los ancianos y por el lugar
que se les reserva en la vida en común» (12 de noviembre de 2012). Es verdad, la atención a los ancianos
habla de la calidad de una civilización. ¿Se presta atención al anciano en una civilización? ¿Hay sitio para el
anciano? Esta civilización seguirá adelante si sabe respetar la sabiduría, la sabiduría de los ancianos. En una
civilización en la que no hay sitio para los ancianos o se los descarta porque crean problemas, esta sociedad
lleva consigo el virus de la muerte.
En Occidente, los estudiosos presentan el siglo actual como el siglo del envejecimiento: los hijos disminuyen,
los ancianos aumentan. Este desequilibrio nos interpela, es más, es un gran desafío para la sociedad
contemporánea. Sin embargo, una cultura de la ganancia insiste en presentar a los ancianos como un peso,
un «estorbo». No sólo no producen, piensa esta cultura, sino que son una carga: en definitiva, ¿cuál es el
resultado de pensar así? Se descartan. Es feo ver a los ancianos descartados, es algo feo, es pecado. No se
dice abiertamente, pero se hace. Hay algo de cobardía en ese habituarse a la cultura del descarte, pero
estamos acostumbrados a descartar gente. Queremos borrar nuestro ya crecido miedo a la debilidad y a la
vulnerabilidad; pero actuando así aumentamos en los ancianos la angustia de ser mal soportados y
abandonados.
Ya en mi ministerio en Buenos Aires toqué con la mano esta realidad con sus problemas: «Los ancianos son
abandonados, y no sólo en la precariedad material. Son abandonados en la egoísta incapacidad de aceptar
sus límites que reflejan nuestros límites, en las numerosas dificultades que hoy deben superar para
sobrevivir en una civilización que no les permite participar, dar su parecer, ni ser referentes según el modelo
de consumo donde “sólo los jóvenes pueden ser útiles y pueden gozar”. Estos ancianos, en cambio, deberían
ser, para toda la sociedad, la reserva de sabiduría de nuestro pueblo. Los ancianos son la reserva de
sabiduría de nuestro pueblo. ¡Con cuánta facilidad se deja dormir la conciencia cuando no hay amor!» (Sólo
el amor nos puede salvar, Ciudad del Vaticano 2013, p. 83). Y esto sucede. Cuando visitaba las residencias de
ancianos, recuerdo que hablaba con cada uno y muchas veces escuché esto: «¿Cómo está usted? ¿Y sus
hijos? −Bien, bien. −¿Cuántos hijos tiene? −Muchos. − ¿Y vienen a visitarla? −Sí, sí, siempre, sí, vienen.
−¿Cuándo vinieron por última vez?». Recuerdo que una anciana me decía: «Ah, por Navidad». Y estábamos
en agosto. Ocho meses sin recibir la visita de los hijos, ocho meses abandonada. Esto se llama pecado
mortal, ¿entendido? En una ocasión, siendo niño, mi abuela nos contaba una historia de un abuelo anciano
que al comer se manchaba porque no podía llevar bien la cuchara con la sopa a la boca. Y el hijo, o sea el
padre de la familia, había decidido cambiarlo de la mesa común e hizo hacer una mesita en la cocina, donde
no se veía, para que comiese solo. Y así no haría un mal papel cuando vinieran los amigos a comer o a cenar.
Pocos días después, al llegar a casa, encontró a su hijo más pequeño jugando con la madera, el martillo y los
clavos, haciendo algo, y le dijo: «¿Qué haces? −Hago una mesa, papá. −Una mesa, ¿para qué? −Para tenerla
cuando tú seas anciano, así tú podrás comer allí». Los niños tienen más conciencia que nosotros.
En la tradición de la Iglesia existe un bagaje de sabiduría que
siempre sostuvo una cultura de cercanía a los ancianos, una
disposición al acompañamiento afectuoso y solidario en esta parte
final de la vida. Esa tradición tiene su raíz en la Sagrada Escritura,
como lo atestiguan, por ejemplo, estas expresiones del Libro del
Sirácides: «No desprecies los discursos de los ancianos, que también
ellos aprendieron de sus padres; porque de ellos aprenderás
inteligencia y a responder cuando sea necesario» (Sir 8, 9).
La Iglesia no puede y no quiere conformarse a una mentalidad de
intolerancia, y mucho menos de indiferencia y desprecio, respecto a
la vejez. Debemos despertar el sentido colectivo de gratitud, de
aprecio, de hospitalidad, que hagan sentir al anciano parte viva de
su comunidad.
Los ancianos son hombres y mujeres, padres y madres que
estuvieron antes que nosotros en el mismo camino, en nuestra
misma casa, en nuestra diaria batalla por una vida digna. Son
hombres y mujeres de quienes recibimos mucho. El anciano no es
un enemigo. El anciano somos nosotros: dentro de poco, dentro de
mucho, inevitablemente de todos modos, incluso si no lo pensamos. Y si no aprendemos a tratar bien a los
ancianos, así nos tratarán a nosotros.
Un poco frágiles somos todos los ancianos. Algunos, sin embargo, son especialmente débiles, muchos están
solos y con el peso de la enfermedad. Algunos dependen de tratamientos indispensables y de la atención de
los demás. ¿Daremos por esto un paso hacia atrás? ¿Los abandonaremos a su destino? Una sociedad sin
proximidad, donde la gratuidad y el afecto sin contrapartida —incluso entre desconocidos— van
desapareciendo, es una sociedad perversa. La Iglesia, fiel a la Palabra de Dios, no puede tolerar estas
degeneraciones. Una comunidad cristiana en la que proximidad y gratuidad ya no fuesen consideradas
indispensables, perdería con ellas su alma. Donde no hay consideración hacia los ancianos, no hay futuro
para los jóvenes

Los Diez Mandamientos Explicados por el Catecismo
Los Diez Mandamientos Explicados por el Catecismo
2584 A solas con Dios, los profetas extraen luz y fuerza para su misión. Su oración no es una huida del mundo infiel, sino una escucha de
la palabra de Dios, es, a veces, un debatirse o una queja, y siempre una intercesión que espera y prepara la intervención del Dios
salvador, Señor de la historia (cf Am 7, 2. 5; Is 6, 5. 8. 11; Jr 1, 6; 15, 15-18; 20, 7-18).
Los Salmos, oración de la asamblea
2585 Desde David hasta la venida del Mesías, las sagradas Escrituras contienen textos de oración que atestiguan el sentido profundo de la
oración por sí mismo y por los demás (cf Esd 9, 6-15; Ne 1, 4-11; Jon 2, 3-10; Tb 3, 11-16; Jdt 9, 2-14). Los salmos fueron reunidos poco a
poco en un conjunto de cinco libros: los Salmos (o “alabanzas”), son la obra maestra de la oración en el Antiguo Testamento.

Reflexion Semanal
“Llamó Jesús a los Doce y los envió de dos en dos” (Vea Marcos 6, 7-13). En las lecturas de
hoy encontramos uno de las declaraciones más conmovedoras del Antiguo Testamento. El
profeta Amós es rechazado y le piden que vaya a predicar en otra parte. ¿Su respuesta? “Yo
soy . . . pastor y cultivador de higos. El Señor me sacó de junto al rebaño y me dijo: ‘Ve y
profetiza a mi pueblo Israel.’” (Vea Amós 7, 12-15) Amós obedeció a Dios. La Santísima
Virgen María, nuestra Madre, hizo igual. Cuando el Señor le pidió que tuviera a Su Hijo, ella
replicó: “Soy la servidora del Señor, hágase en mí tal como has dicho.” ¿Tiene usted algún
familiar, o amigo, o compañero de trabajo que va en la dirección incorrecta? Entonces ya
sabe usted lo que Dios espera. Sea como Amós. Obedezca como María.

SENDING
THEM
TWO BY TWO
Jesus summoned the Twelve
and began to send them out
two by two and gave them
authority over unclean
spirits. He instructed them
to take nothing for the
journey but a walking stick
… and to wear sandals but
not a second tunic. He said
to them, “Whenever you
enter a house, stay there
until you leave. Whatever
place does not welcome you
or listen to you, leave there
and shake the dust off your
feet in testimony against
them.” So they went off
and preached repentance.
