Pastor’s Letter
Christmas 2015
Dear Parish Family
The Innkeeper
One of my favorite Christmas stories is about a boy who wanted to be one of the actors in his parish’s
Christmas pageant. The boy had many educational, intellectual, and emotional challenges that would make
it difficult for him to carry out a role. So the director chose him for an easy part – he would be the innkeeper
and he would have just one line to remember: “There is no room at the inn.”
Everyone tried to pull together to help him with the task. The director gave him extra time in practice. His
school teachers worked with him every day. Every night his parents rehearsed that line over and over
again. His parents were filled with apprehension that at the crucial moment his disabilities would get the
better of him. But he so wanted to take part.
Finally, the big day arrived. Mary and Joseph walked up to the inn and knocked on the door. The innkeeper
as precisely and perfectly as any Broadway actor spoke his famous line: “There is no room at the
inn!” Everyone, especially his parents, slumped back into their seats in relief. He had done it! But then, just
as Mary and Joseph turned away in disappointment, it seemed as if the tragedy of his words struck the
boy. He looked pained and panicked and in a moment of prophetic improvisation said: “But you can stay at
my house!”
As we listen to the gospel on Christmas day, I often wonder how many times the tragedy of it all comes
home to us. God knocked at the door and there was no room. I wonder if we understand that the Christmas
story is more about the way things should be than the way there were or are. How many of the world’s
problems go back to closed doors, closed hearts, and closed lives? How different the world would be if each
of us in our own way was able to say “But you can stay at my house” to someone lost, lonely, friendless,
troubled.
Those who knock on the door are everywhere. There are lonely people in our families. There are
challenged and challenging people in our communities and workplaces. There are the many who knock on
our nation’s door for help. You and I are the innkeepers. The gospel asks us to recognize the humanity, the
godliness of all who knock at any door for our help. It is always God who knocks on our door. That is the
mystery and miracle of Christmas – the Incarnation.
Pope Francis has asked us to make this year a holy year of mercy. Here at our church we are one just four
parishes on Long Island chosen to symbolically be a Holy Door of Mercy. There is no more appropriate
symbol for a church than an open door. It reminds us that the heart of God is always open and we are
always welcome to receive God’s merciful kindness. And it is also a reminder that we ourselves are meant
to be open doors of mercy to all those who we meet each day.
I am so glad that you are here today. You are a vital part of the Parish
Family of Sacred Hearts. It is in you that Christ is born today. I wish
you and all those you love a blessed and joyful Christmas.
Rev. Michael A. Vetrano

learn of mercy through Mary, the women Jesus meets along the way, and the saintly
women of our church.
Tuesday, March 8: Bishop Nelson Perez will be with us
to speak about Mercy toward the refugee and immigrant.
the Gospel.
Wednesday, March 9: Police officer Steven McDonald

Ways to Give to the Basilica Parish of the Sacred Hearts
We hope that you enjoyed your Christmas visit to Sacred Hearts. We are a small year round
community and this maintenance of this beautiful church and its many ministries are made possible
by the year round support and special holiday generosity of each of you. We are grateful for your
generosity today. If you would like to learn about other opportunities to support us please consider
the following:
Become a Registered Member or Friend of the Basilica. You are welcome to make Sacred
Hearts your home parish and if you already belong to another community we would be happy to
include you in our membership as a Friend of the Basilica. Visit: www.shjmbasilica.org/register
Support the In Nomine Domini Fund: Our In Nomine Domini fund was
established to preserve, restore, and develop the beauty of our basilica church.
Last year parishioners contributed over 1 million to the fund which will be
used to update the heating, add air conditioning, renovate the pews, and build
rest room facilities. If you would like to join this effort please make your
check payable to SHJM In Nomine Domini. These funds are only used for the
basilica church.
Abigail Hubble, Rose Kelly, and Caitlin Hubble were stars in the Guild Hall Production of The Nutcracker
Stewardship
Become a First Fruits Contributor: One of the challenges faced by Sacred Hearts is the
constantly changing pattern of giving over the course of the
year. Summers, with many visitors are strong. Winters can be
difficult. Storms, vacations, and active lives take people away
for weeks or months. First Fruits is our new program of
automatic giving which insures that even if the weather is poor
or people are away our church receives a constant and planned
level of support. If you would like to become a first fruits
parishioner please visit our website. Www.shjmbasilica.org
Music at the Basilica
A special St. Patrick’s Day Event

for St. Patrick’s Day. Tickets will be on sale the week after Christmas. Visit our website or parish office.
Think warm thoughts!

be held

event. For more information contact Fr. Mike

In this Jubilee Year of Mercy
Parish Events
Become an Anchor of Mercy
During this Holy Year of Mercy we will be offering Eucharistic
Adoration on Thursday from the conclusion of the noon mass
until Benediction at 4:00 PM. We will also have confessions
during this time and our Spanish community will pray the
Chaplet of Divine Mercy from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM. We are
very much in need of parishioners to be in church all during that
afternoon time to ensure that someone is always praying before
the Blessed Sacrament and to welcome others to prayer. I am
calling these parishioners Anchors of Mercy and I am inviting
you to become one of them. To do so you will agree to be in
church on those Thursdays for at least 1/2 hour and at least one
Thursday a month. You can of course agree to be present for
longer if you wish. But we need to be sure that our church is
never empty on these Thursday afternoons. You can use this page to sign up or send an email to
