“From the Pen of Father Len”
Dear Parishioners and Friends of St. Titus Parish,
Praised be Jesus Christ—now and forever!
This past Monday, January 26th, was the feast day of St. Titus - our
parish’s patron saint.
Although there is not much “specific” detail about St. Titus’ personal life
(e.g., the exact dates of his birth and death, what he looked like, or his
family background and occupaon), it is quite clear from sacred scripture
that he was an apostle of St. Paul, admired and respected by St. Paul, and
used by St. Paul to carry out some very challenging tasks that required the
balance of a “firm approach” with a “gentle and likeable personality”. St.
Titus obviously had the ability to deliver the “harsh spiritual reprimands of
St. Paul” using “a spoonful of sugar” to make those reprimands understood
as coming from “loving and caring father” (St. Paul) and, consequently,
easier to “swallow” and “accepted” without being agitang or offensive.
Here is the story of St. Titus as history and tradion proclaim it to be:
Titus was a Greek, apparently from Anoch, who seems to have been
converted by Paul, whereupon he served as Paul's secretary and
interpreter. In the year 51, Titus accompanied Paul to the council held at
Jerusalem, on the subject of the Mosaic rites. Although the apostle had
consented to the circumcision of Timothy, in order to render his ministry
acceptable among the Jews, he would not allow the same in regard to Titus,
so as not to seem in agreement with those who would require it for Genle
converts.
Towards the close of the year 56, Paul sent Titus from Ephesus to Corinth,
with full commission to remedy the several subjects of scandal and
dissensions in that church. From Corinth, Paul then sent Titus to organize
the collecons of alms for the Chrisans at Jerusalem. Titus was a
peacemaker, administrator, and missionary. He rejoined Paul in Macedon,
and cheered him with the dings he brought from Corinth.
St. Paul, aer his first imprisonment, returning from Rome stopped at the
island of Crete to preach. The necessies of other churches requiring his
presence elsewhere, he ordained his disciple Titus bishop of that island, and
le him to finish the work he had begun. Chrysostom says that this is an
indicaon of the esteem St. Paul held for Titus. Paul summoned Titus from
Crete to join him at Nicopolis in Epirus. Later, Titus traveled to Dalmaa.
The New Testament does not record his death.
Peace,
Father Len

To prepare for the World Meeng of Families and Pope Francis’s visit, we are
studying a catechesis on family life called Love is Our Mission: The Family Fully
Alive. Each month, our parish is reflecng on one chapter. Previous monthly
reflecons are online at PhillyEvang.org/wmof. You can order the catechesis
and learn more about next year’s big event, at WorldMeeng2015.org.
F
2015: C
4: T B O
Our first three chapters reviewed basic Chrisan faith. We saw how confidence
in Jesus opens the door to faith, enabling us to know God and what God has done in history. God creates male and
female in his image, and makes a covenant with Israel and the Church. God is faithful to his promises, even when we
sin. Because God loved us in this way, we spend our lives trying to return our love to God and share it with our neighbor. In this month’s chapter and in the chapters to come, we will study the implicaons of these doctrines for marriage and the family. When husband and wife promise to love each other as God loves us all, they make a
commitment to love not only romancally, but also with mercy and forgiveness. Our culture somemes teaches us to
think of marriage as a negoable contract between two individuals who happen to feel sexual chemistry. This view of
love is a recipe for instability, since it is sll premised on individualism and the waxing and waning of romanc
feelings. The Church’s alternave account of love enables us to transcend the culture of individualism and become
who we were created to be. Founded on Christ, sustained in the sacraments, Catholic marriage builds humility and
self-sacrifice into the dynamic between male and female. As this month’s chapter explains in more detail,
sacramental marriage creates inmate communion even in mes of suffering and hardship. “Love is our mission,” as
our Catechism’s tle declares, because Christ’s love frees us from false, shrunken accounts of love and
makes us fully alive.
~Christopher C. Roberts, Catechism editor

AN INFORMATION NIGHT ON CHURCH ANNULMENTS
When it comes to quesons of divorce, annulments
and marriage in the Church, there are many
misunderstandings and misconcepons. Quesons
such as - “Can I receive Holy Communion as a
divorced (and not remarried) person?” “If my spouse
and I are married outside the Church, how do we go
about celebrang the Marriage as a Sacrament?“
“Why might a non-Catholic need to avail himself or
herself of the annulment process?” - are rounely
asked by many people and oen the responses to
the quesons are misleading, half-truths or
completely erroneous.
Msgr. Paul A. DiGirolarno, the Judicial Vicar of the
Archdiocesan Tribunal, will speak at St. Stanislaus
Parish to provide clear and accurate informaon
concerning annulments in the Catholic Church. He
will provide me to address quesons that may
surface. Msgr. DiGirolamo is a priest of the
Archdiocese of Philadelphia. He has spent
#095
many years assisng people who have experienced a
divorce to explore the possibility of marriage in the
Church.
While the evening is intended for divorced persons
who have quesons concerning a Church Annulment,
the presentaon is open to everyone. Perhaps there
is someone in your family, a friend or a co-worker
who needs sound, clear informaon on this process.
Be an ambassador of good news by providing people
you know with the proper informaon that seeks to
offer healing of the past and hope for a new
beginning in the future.
Tuesday evening - February 10th - 7:30pm

St. Titus Parish has been making casseroles for St.
John’s Hospice in Center City Philadelphia for over
25 years. The casseroles are the “Main
Course” of a
complete, hot meal that is served to hundreds of God’s poor and homeless who
come to St. John’s for their daily bread.
Please do not feel restricted to the recipes
which can be found on the recipe sheets near the
casserole pan in the vesbule. Your
favorite recipe is most welcome! So are store
bought casseroles such as Stouffers or Oncor.
St. John’s provides us with pans and lids for your
dishes. If you provide your own, please use a standard “half tray”. Each casserole serves 6-8 men. Each
month, St. John’s picks up the dishes from our freezer.
Here are some useful hints:
x Please bring your casseroles frozen to church
and put them in the freezer located in the vesbule of the Social Hall. If the door to the Social
Hall is locked, please leave the casserole with a
sacristan or maintenance.
x Prepare your recipe so that it can be eaten with
a plasc “spork” (a combinaon spoon and fork).
x Please mark the lid with the main ingredients

The Scriptures we heard today remind us that
Jesus, because he is God, speaks with ulmate
authority. So, when we hear him speaking to us we
should not harden our hearts, but be open to His
word (Psalm 95: 1-9; Mark: 28). Mahew Kelly, in
his book, Rediscover Catholicism, may be speaking
a prophec word to us about our Church and God’s
call to us through the Church to become all that he
wills for us to become.
Through the generosity of several parishioners,
this book was gied to substanally all families who
aended Christmas Mass. The hope being that by
taking the me to read the book, each family may
be revitalized in their love for the Church and seek
to become the best version of themselves by the
grace of God; in other words, to grow in the holiness
to which God calls each of us. Aer all, the Church
remains God’s gi to us aer Jesus ascended into
heaven. The Church gives us the Word of God and
the Sacraments and protects them because these,
through the grace won for us by Jesus, help lead to
our salvaon; to help us become the “best version
of ourselves.” However, we live in a me where in
the Western world the Church suffers at the hands
of those who chasse it and poke fun of it for its
beliefs. Further, the behavior of certain “Catholic”
individuals keeps from making Jesus’ presence felt
in the world. In other parts of the world, like the
Middle East and Communist naons, the Church
suffers physical persecuon and many are martyred
for their faith. In the face of this discouragement
then, we as Catholic Chrisans need hope. This book
provides that hope and encourages us to take a look,
or a second look, at the Church and the teachings of
Jesus Christ and why they are what this world needs
and needs in a most profound way. “If today you
hear his voice; harden not your hearts.”
Here is a sample of the many posive reviews
about this book: “As someone who was raised
Catholic and has waned in Catholic faith throughout
the years, this book came just at the right me.
When I put aside my cynical views and opinions of
the Catholic Church, I was able to learn a lot about
the tradions and how I might try to praccally apply
them to my life as an Adult Catholic. If you can just
let this book speak to your heart and let go of all the
negavity that society places on Catholic life, I
believe it can bring great spiritual growth. I love the
idea of being the best version of ourselves and I love
the reminder that God meets us as we are. ..”
Please… Read this book; be encouraged by it; and
share it with others.
If you have a theme, topic or spiritual maer that you
would like Deacon Granese to address,
please contact him at 215-292-6479 or
