My Dear Parish Family,

In last week’s blurb we began talking about the importance of the tabernacle which reserves the Blessed Sacrament. In today’s day and age we know how important it is to teach about the true presence of our Lord in the Eucharist.

This makes our understanding of the tabernacle and where it is positioned of great importance.

Both the Catechism of the Catholic Church and the 1983 Code of Canon Law, as well as the constant Tradition of the Church, affirm that the Eucharist is the “source and summit of the Christian life” and “all the works of the apostolate are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it.” Accordingly, Church regulations pertaining to the holy Eucharist call us to hold the Blessed Sacrament in the highest honor and give it the greatest care. A review of the documents regulating the tabernacle renders the following:

Code of Canon Law (1983): “The tabernacle, in which the blessed Eucharist is reserved, should be sited in a distinguished place in the church or oratory, a place which is conspicuous, suitably adorned and conducive to prayer.”

“The tabernacle in which the blessed Eucharist is habitually reserved is to be immovable, made of solid and non-transparent material, and so locked as to give the greatest security against any danger of profanation.”

“The person in charge of a church or oratory is to see to it that the key of the tabernacle in which the blessed Eucharist is reserved is in maximum safekeeping.” (Canon 938).

The General Instruction of the Roman Missal: “In accordance with the structure of each church and legitimate local customs, the Most Blessed Sacrament should be reserved in a tabernacle in a part of the church that is truly noble, prominent, conspicuous, worthily decorated, and suitable for prayer.

Rev. Brian Patrick Woodrow

Hope and Healing Ministry

sponsored by the Parish Nurse/Health and Wellness Ministry

*** Special Notice *** Most people are aware of the extremely high incidence of drug and alcohol abuse in the United States today, which has

resulted in a major health crisis. The number of overdoses and deaths are staggering and continue to be on the uprise.

Here at Saint Dominic’s, we the members of the Parish Nurse/Health and Wellness Ministry, together with several very

dedicated members of our parish community, have come together to develop a ministry to address these major issues.

Thanks to the love and support of our Pastor, Father Brian, we are able to now offer our new ministry, “Hope and

Healing”, whose goal it is to offer support to individuals, their family and friends who are suffering from the disease of

addiction, in a spiritual, open-minded, faith-centered community. “Hope and Healing” respects the highest ethical

standards of confidentiality, anonymity, and support with dignity and respect.

The effects of addiction go far beyond the individual addict from family and friends, to the community at large. But hope

and recovery is possible. Once addiction is understood as a chronic disease, and not a personal failing, stigma and shame

can be replaced with compassion and hope. The Hope and Healing Ministry will offer a culture of acceptance and will

provide additional informational and community resources.

We meet every Wednesday at 7:00 PM in the Community Room.

The next meeting of the Hope and Healing Ministry will be held

Wednesday, October 30th at 7:00 PM in the Community Room.For more information, please call Saint Dominic Church at 732-840-1410, ext 236

Please join us so you can learn more about this ministry.
