It was on a morning sometime in 1978 when I met Bishop Romero, now Saint Romero, for the first time. We were a group of high school teenagers who had requested a meeting with him to receive his feedback and blessings for our newly-formed missionary outreach group. I can still remember him, his presence and his peaceful personality. Oscar Romero was born on August 15, 1917 in a small town in El Salvador in a faith-filled family. He entered minor seminary at the age of 13. He was ordained a priest in 1942 and served as a parish priest for 20 years. It was during the 1970s, but especially in 1975, that political polarization began in El Salvador. The conditions among people were “a time bomb.” Poverty, oppression and violence were common problems for the majority of the population in those days. There was political corruption with “democratic” elections in which the candidate was already decided by the controlling classes and a government that was looking out for themselves and not for the people. A group of the people began to arm themselves forming the resistance called “guerrilla.” It became brother against brother.

Both the government army and the guerrillas were recruited by force from the countryside, both men and women. It was in this political turmoil that Fr. Romero began his ministry as a priest. In 1970 he was appointed auxiliary bishop and then on

February 22, 1977 he became Archbishop of San Salvador. It was a violent time when people from the countryside and poor people throughout the country were being killed for selfish interests of money and power. From the beginning of his ministry as an auxiliary bishop, Oscar Romero had seen the extremely hard living conditions of the poor in San Salvador and around the country. He visited the slum areas of the city, talking to people, celebrating the sacraments with them, and listening to their hopes and sufferings. He was deeply affected by the death of one of his friends, Fr. Rutilio Grande, a Jesuit priest, a diligent and tireless evangelizer of farmers and peasants. He, his driver and a catechist while on their way to a village chapel to celebrate its patron feast, were murdered by

the death squads used by the government to eliminate their “opponents.” I remember going to Fr. Grande’s funeral Mass as part of the school outreach. He was buried under the church’s altar. I was there not even knowing this would be a pivotal moment in the life of the country. This event opened the eyes of the world to the violence being afflicted on the priests and catechists who were ministering in poor areas. Their message of the Gospel, of love and justice, was considered subversive.

Archbishop Romero’s mission was to be the ”voice to the voiceless.” He became a prophet, a messenger of justice for the poor and the oppressed. He was killed during Mass in a hospital chapel on March 24, 1980. He was beatified on May 23, 2015 and will be canonized as the first Salvadorian Saint and Martyr on October 14, 2018. Recently, as I was preparing to write this article, I came across Bishop Romero’s memoirs and I discovered surprisingly that our little meeting with him in 1978 was recorded there. We were just a bunch of high school students, but for him we were important enough to keep that event forever registered. May the message of St. Oscar Romero of justice, truth and love for the poor and the oppressed be our inspiration to always strive to imitate him to defend those values in our homes, places of work and society at large. St. Romero of America, pray for us!

A SPECIAL MEMORY OF ONE OF OUR NEWEST SAINTS: Archbishop Oscar Romero

By Deacon George Montalvo

(“From the Pastor’s Desk” will return next week.)

ALL SOULS MASS —NOVEMBER 2

A Mass commemorating the faithful departed (All Souls Day) will be celebrated at Saint Joseph Church on

Friday, November 2 at 7:30 pm. At that Mass, the names of all those who have had funerals at Saint Joseph Church this year will be read. You may also include the name of your loved one who died this year (even if their funeral was not celebrated at Saint Joseph). Please call the Parish Office at 201-261-0148 by Friday, October 26 in order to have your loved one’s name read at the Mass.

LITURGY OF THE WORD WITH CHILDREN

SUNDAYS AT 9:00 AM MASS Our children are invited to hear the Word of God at a level they can understand every Sunday at the 9:00 am Mass. Just before the first reading is proclaimed , the children attending the Mass are invited to come forward and move as a group to their own prayer space in Mary’s Chapel. (A parent or sibling is welcome to join them if they wish.) The readings are presented in an age-appropriate way that nourishes their faith and helps them to become full and active participants in the Liturgy. The children are brought back to the assembly in time for the beginning of the Liturgy of the Eucharist.

ADULT VOLUNTEERS ARE NEEDED If you are an adult who would like to become part of this very special ministry and assist our priests and deacon to share God’s message with our littlest parishioners, please see Fr. Anthony or call the parish office at 201-261-0148 ,

Pope Paul VI Paul VI, who reigned from 1963 to 1978, led the Catholic Church through the closing of the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) and the turbulent period that followed, overseeing significant transitions in liturgy, seminary formation, theological study,

and many other areas of ecclesiastical life. Paul VI also launched the Synod of Bishops in 1965, as an attempt to broaden the involvement of bishops from around the world in the governance of the Church. The next session is scheduled for Rome in October, devoted to themes of youth and vocations. He’s best known for his controversial 1968 encyclical letter Humanae Vitae, which reaffirmed the Church’s traditional opposition to artificial birth control. 2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the encyclical, with major events planned in Rome and around the world to ponder its legacy. Prior to his election to the papacy, Giovanni Battista Montini spent much of his career in the Vatican’s diplomatic service, including serving as a senior aide to Pope Pius XII, before becoming the Cardinal of Milan. Paul VI was beatified in 2014 after a first miracle was attributed to him. [More recently] a Vatican theological and medical commission approved a second miracle attributed to him. According to media reports, on Feb. 6 the Vatican’s Congregation for the Causes of Saints approved the second miracle needed for the canonization of Pope Paul VI by a unanimous vote.

Not just the ones we pick and choose, but all our gifts: our time in prayer to God, our talent in participating in parish ministries and our treasure supporting our local parish and other charities.

SAINT JOSEPH CHURCH ORADELL/NEW MILFORD, NJ

If you’ve ever attended the 10:30 am Upper Church

Mass and heard our wonderful Adult Choir sing, you’ve heard the arrangements of Bill Ryan. While the melody/words to the hymns are the work of the composer/lyricist, the specific notes assigned to the sopranos, altos and baritones and in many cases the choice of chords are the work of the arranger.

Bill Ryan’s body of work for the choir is immense and brilliant. I know because I’ve analyzed, rehearsed and conducted many of his arrangements. Some of his works include the choir’s rendition of I Have Loved You, Maranatha III, Lead Me, Guide Me, and the wonderful staple of our Christmas Concert, the Silent Night/Christmas Story medley.

I am sorry that I never met Bill Ryan. I had one lovely phone conversation with him when I was first hired in December of 2010. He spoke about both the Children’s Choir and the Adult Choir. About the latter he commented, “I wasn’t writing for the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, I was arranging for a community choir” implying that you have to know the talents and strengths (and limits) of your music ministers and write to accentuate their gifts.

Duke Ellington, the most successful jazz composer of all time, was also an amazing arranger. It is said that the sheet music he handed out to his band didn’t say “Alto 1”, “Trumpet 2”, etc. but rather ”Johnny Hodges” and “Cootie Williams.” Meaning he wasn’t writing for the first alto or second trumpet, he was writing for the specific members of the band. Bill Ryan was following that same premise.

At the start of that phone call, Mr. Ryan said to me “I hear I’ve been replaced.” How do you replace someone who was Director of Music for 45 years and who has a room named after him? (The Bill Ryan Room is in the back sacristy on the Grand Street side and appropriately where the choir stores their robes.) How I have chosen to replace him is to honor and include many of his arrangements in the choir’s weekly selections.

(continued above)

I have always thought it Divine Providence that like my predecessor, I am also an arranger.

Most Directors of Music use published arrangements for their choir. There is nothing wrong with that and I do the same. But there is something special about music content that is written specifically for one’s own parish. If you’ve heard the Saint Joseph Choir sing Gather Us In, America the Beautiful, Canticle of the Sun or Go! Tell it on the Mountain, those are songs that I have arranged for the choir. I have tried to follow Bill’s advice from that phone call and arrange especially for OUR choir.

James Conley, Bishop of the Diocese of Lincoln Nebraska, referring to

Saint Augustine, writes “… singing adds to our praise and worship of God—that our voices are gifts, with which we can make music to the Lord. Sung prayer expresses the joy of the heart, the happiness resulting from one who has encountered Jesus Christ and experienced his love. Sung prayer reminds us of the choirs of heaven, with whom we are called to praise God eternally in heaven.” I sincerely hope that this sentiment shines through when you hear the Saint Joseph Choir sing.

Peace, Monroe

If you would like to join either of our choirs, please speak with Monroe at Mass or email him at quinnm@sjcnj
