Weekly Letter from

Father Hien

Lord, make me your fisher of men.

Fr. Hien's Weekly Letter 09/26/21

9/26/2021

 
My Dear Parishioners of All Saints,
     Are you ready to celebrate the life, love, and service of Father Emil Kapaun to God and to others?  Yes, our beloved Fr. Kapaun is our Kansas and American hero.  He was a saintly Catholic man, priest, chaplain, and fellow American.  He was born to be God's hands, feet, and love to all people through his skills, talents, and sacrifices.  His Catholic faith grew in him as he lived his life, even when he was captured and imprisoned in North Korea.  It was in the prison camp that his faith was most radiant to others in the manner of his life--prayers, teachings and sacrificing.  He didn't live to hate anyone, including his enemy, the communist.  He lived to love and to serve unconditionally.
     You and I are called to join thousands of people in our diocese and throughout the country to honor and to pray for the sainthood of Fr. Kapaun.  His funeral Mass will be this Wednesday, September 29th at the Hartman Arena.  There will be no 8:00am daily mass at All Saints on this day.  I will pray for his sainthood, and also for his intercession for all of us, the people of All Saints so that we too will be like him in words and in deeds in our daily lives.   Our Catholic faith must grow within us like Fr. Kapaun's.  I pray that when our earthly journey is ended, we will join Fr. Kapaun in heaven.  God made us all so that we may live on earth, and also in heaven, with God and all the angels and saints  We all will do so if today we would imitate Fr. Kapaun as he too imitated Jesus.
     Parishioners of All Saints, I strongly encourage everyone to pray the canonization prayer of Fr. Kapaun as often as you can for his sainthood.  I trust that he too will pray for you until you are in heaven with him.  If you have any special needs and intentions that you need Father Kapaun's help with, don't be afraid to pray for his help, his intercession.  Many miracles have happened through the prayer of Fr. Kapaun.  May God help us all, especially all priests, to be like Fr. Kapaun in words and in deeds with Jesus's eternal love to one another.  Fr. Kapaun, we love you and thank you for being our saintly Kansan, Fr. Hien
