FromtheDeacon’sDesk

Dear Friends:

Our Gospel story today comes from John 2:1 – 11. It is the famous story of

the wedding feast at Cana. Jesus’ a"endance at this wedding is the basis on

which the Church proclaims marriage to be a sacrament, endorsed by Jesus

himself.

I think we all are familiar with the story. The host ran out of wine and Jesus

‘mother informs him of this. At first Jesus hesitates, “Woman, how does

your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come.” Jesus is not ready to

start his ministry. However, because his mother asks, he will a"end to the

problem. Think about what Jesus does. There are six stone water jars used

for ceremonial washing. Jesus asks the a"endants to fill them to the brim.

There is now somewhere between 120 and 180 gallons of wine. Not just

any wine, it’s the best the steward ever tasted! When Jesus does someone

a favor, in this case a miracle, he doesn’t fool around.

I wonder what Jesus is trying to tell us in supplying all this really good wine?

Perhaps he is trying to make us understand that God’s goodness and kind-

ness is more than anything we can understand. Maybe he’s trying to tell us

that if we put our trust in God, God will take care of everything for us. Now

this doesn’t mean that God will come down here with a magic wand and

solve all our problems. It does mean that God is with us always and gives us

the best of care. If we accept his offer, our problems become much more

bearable. God will give us what we need to get through whatever life hands

us. Isn’t that worth le:ng God be first in our lives?

Peace and All Good!

Deacon Jim

Jubilee

In the Beginning, prior to 1866, the Catholics of Abingdon, Harford County Maryland, came to the Theodore Delmas home, Delmas Place, for

Baptisms, Confirmations and Monthly Mass by a priest who came to Abingdon from St. Ignatius in Hickory. As far back as October 12, 1847 the

St. Ignatius register records a Baptism at the House of Misses Delmas near Abingdon, Harford County by Fr. Thomas O’Neill. Through 1860-

1866 five other Baptism were done. There is one reference of Mass at the Delmas home on May 8, 1866 recorded by Fr. O’Connor from St.

Ignatius. On November 23, 1865 Archbishop Spalding conferred Confirmation in the private chapel of Mr. Delmas for 22 persons. He stated “

There are 300 Catholics in this neighborhood who contemplate building a church on a donated lot early next spring.” The Archbishop required

each head of family to pay 50 cents a month toward the cost but this is scarcely ever paid. Despite the infrequent celebration of Mass in Abing-

don, the residents never lost hope of a church of their own.

This dream of a church was rewarded by the generous gift of 4 acres of land on the west side of the Abingdon to Bel Air Road “at the top of a

hill” deeded Oct 31, 1865 by William Pannell and his wife Mary. They were non-Catholics and he was owner of the nearby Harford Furnace Mill.

He believed this would be of benefit to the Irish and Czechoslovakian Millworkers and their families. The stone work was done by Mr. George

Lochary, a member of St. Ignatius, who donated his services (valued at $600). The cost of the building amounted to about $4000. By July 12,

1866 James Cardinal Gibbons laid the cornerstone.The First Mass was said by Fr O’Connor in the new church on Christmas morning 1866. 150

years ago!

At first, it was the 3rd daughter mission church of St. Ignatius and then became mission of St. Stephens in 1871 until 1965. Early credit is given to

Fr. Francis Patrick O’Connor, St. Ignatius pastor, for building St. Francis in 1866. In 1887 a newspaper described a three day Fair for the benefit

of St. Francis de Sales Church. Hence, we begin our historical trip for our entire yearlong celebration of this sesquicentennial 150TH Jubilee

year. REMEMBER WE ARE ST. FRANCIS!!!

youth have to say!

“NCYC was an amazing experience for

me. The fact that a stadium full of peo-

ple could go from screaming to being

so quiet you could hear a pin drop

amazed me. The trip has made me re-

alize how important my faith is and has

only made me want to grow as a Cath-

olic. My experience at NCYC is one I

will never forget.”
