Come, Worship With Us on Sunday
You are invited to join us at 10:00 on any Sunday morning to attend Mass at our church. No matter your background, ethnicity, or denomination, we don't look at that. Just people with good will looking for some place to fill out their souls. If you need comfort, a place to pray, this is the place. We do not judge—it's not up to us to judge. All are welcome.
The Mass liturgy is celebrated in English and booklets are available for you to follow the service in comfort. Please come and worship along side the friendly people of St. Casimir’s.
The Solemnity of the Holy Family
Sirach 3:2-6,12-14; Colossians 3:12-21; Gospel: Luke 2:41-52
Christmas is, above all, a family feast and while our thoughts are still centered on Bethlehem and the Holy Family, the readings of this liturgy deal with various aspects of family life. Speaking about the Holy Family may be somewhat off-putting
The Solemnity of the Holy Family
Sirach 3:2-6,12-14; Colossians 3:12-21; Gospel: Luke 2:41-52
Christmas is, above all, a family feast and while our thoughts are still centered on Bethlehem and the Holy Family, the readings of this liturgy deal with various aspects of family life. Speaking about the Holy Family may be somewhat off-putting as our own home may be a far cry from this loving ideal. Let us not forget that Mary and Joseph, like any other parents, had their own problems and difficulties to face. The shadow of the cross was already beginning to form over the crib at Bethlehem when they heard Simeon's chill prophecy, that the Child Jesus was destined for the fall and rising of many in Israel and that Mary's own soul would be pierced with a sword. From the very beginning, the child they loved and cherished was a mystery to Mary and Joseph and as he grew up under their protection all they could do was to place their trust in God. We must do the same. The family is as old as humankind and has survived because it is built on the strong foundation of love. We may not be able to change many things in the world but our influence does extend over our own homes and our own family. Like any other worthwhile project, family life, to be successful, has to be given time and energy to develop. It does not happen automatically. Love, harmony and mutual respect, which are the basic ingredients of a happy family, have to be witnessed in action. Example teaches best. Attitudes of loving and caring, which are encouraged in the earliest days, have a deep and lasting influence. Children become, in later life, what their homes have made them, and when they have learned to give as well as received, they develop a growing awareness of others.
This is an opportunity for young adults to reflect on the love and respect which they ought to show to their fathers and mothers, because kindness to parents is precious in the eyes of God. Sadly they may not have always lived up to the gospel expectations in this respect. Parents are often left bewildered and wondering at what is happening as they watch their children grow up and express values and beliefs different to their generation. Grandparents must also be shown sensitive respect in their declining years and not be condemned to end their days in the pathetic isolation of a crucifying aloneness. More than anything else, the emphasis is to be at peace within our family circle. While a well-furnished home and a decent standard of living are important, it is good to remember that, unless the family keeps prayer and spiritual concerns in mind, things are bound to go wrong.
Family life never runs smoothly and today it is more difficult and trying than ever before. It is the raw material from which we fashion our sainthood. On this feast of the Holy family we ask Mary and Joseph to make our families pleasing to God, to be the heart and center of every home throughout the world and to put a new spirit into this basic unit of all society.
