St. Pius X Parish is a diverse Catholic community of faith that
embraces everyone, without exception.

The BEST Servant of All
“But in the pillar, there is an ascent like a ladder from bottom to top.” This is to say that in the incarnate Son of God all the virtues work fully, and that He left in Himself the way of salvation; so that faithful people both small and great can find in Him the right step on which to place their foot to ascend to virtue, so that they can reach the best place to exercise all the virtues. (The path of virtue from St. Hildegard of Bingin, Virgin and Doctor) The aspiration to achieve excellent results and to do ever better is the instinctive drive that is the source of mankind’s progress. But in our fallen nature, the desire to do better is often nurtured by pride – the pride that brings us to trample on others in the eagerness to succeed. This is not what Jesus taught us. We are invited to overcome that pride with humble and generous service. In the Gospel, Jesus challenges his disciples and us to be the servant of all. That is the most practical and effective way to counteract the devastating consequences of “the passions that make war within our members.” Let us ask the Lord to grant us the grace to be able to serve, out of love and with love. Our pride, our self-trust cannot take us to ascend beyond Holy Glory, it can only give us self confidence, but with humility, the Lord can lift us up and transform us in to “Wonder Workers” just like His Saints.

Hail Guardian of the Redeemer, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
To you God entrusted his only Son; in you Mary placed her trust; with you Christ became man.
Blessed Joseph to us too, show yourself a father and guide us in the path of life.
Obtain for us grace, mercy and courage, and defend us from every evitl
Amen.
-Pope Francis
Written by Bishop Larry Silva
Dear God of all the living, you sent your Son Jesus to heal us from illness and sin. We turn to his healing power in this time of anxiety over the pandemic of this potentially deadly virus.
St. Damien and St. Marianne Cope dedicated their lives to the service of those who had an infectious disease. St. Marianne Cope said, “I am not afraid of any disease,” because she was confident in your power to save.
At the same time, she took prudent precautions of hygiene to assure that she and her Sisters would not be infected.
Let us learn from this example to put our trust in you to save us from the ravages of disease and to take prudent measures to prevent its spread. Guide us to know when to isolate ourselves from the possibility of infection, but never let anyone be left without the care and concern of others in the community.
As our Diocese of Honolulu has been dedicated to the Divine Mercy, we pray with confidence,
Jesus, I trust in you.
Saint Damien, pray for us!
Saint Marianne, pray for us! --- Amen.
As many of you know,
St. Philomena Church and Early Learning Center in Honolulu suffered a major fire on Labor Day weekend as a result of arson. The property Insurance will not cover the majority of the loss due to program deductibles and pre-existing termite damage which occurred prior to the fire. Any parish or
parishioner who can help St. Philomena with this tremendous cost can do so at: https://www.catholichawaii.org/

Your kokua will be greatly appreciated!
God bless you all!
Thank you!

Our Stewardship Prayer
Generous and Loving Creator, you have called us to M lama i ka Makana (Cherish the Gift). As disciples of your Son, we ask that your Spirit open our minds and hearts to more deeply appreciate your countless blessings. Increase your transforming spirit within us, so as to nurture our call to stewardship as a way of life marked always by faithfilled prayer, service to others and generous giving. With the kokua of St. Marianne and St. Damien, teach us to be good stewards so we may return a hundred-fold the makana entrusted to us.
We pray this through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
