Francine Butzine is retiring after 43 years at St. Henry School

WATERTOWN — The old adage “Time flies when you’re having fun” certainly applies to Francine Butzine, who is retiring this year after 43 years as a teacher and principal at St. Henry School in Watertown.

In an interview, Mrs. Butzine — as students, parents, and others fondly call her in the St. Henry community — said she has “never been bored” in her 20 years as a teacher and 23 years as a principal at St. Henry School.

Coming to a parish near you this summer!

I would like to congratulate Rev. Mr. Vince Brewer, Rev. Mr. Garrett Kau, and Rev. Mr. Steve Petrica on their upcoming ordination to the Priesthood of Jesus Christ. What an event of great joy for the diocese in this Year of Faith to have three men ordained for the ministry of the word and sacraments.

Naming the Gosnell babies — Connecting with the humanity of aborted babies

The trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell is about much more than the man himself. In a painful way, it brings America face to face with abortion, which, as the defense argued, is “bloody” and “real.”

For those who have had abortions, it brings them again in touch with a pain that is never really far away, and it brings them in touch yet again with their need for healing.

Is incontinence normal with age?

Ask Jean column by Jean MuellerQ: This is a very hard question to ask, but here goes. I have been helping my mom for the past couple of years. So far it has been house cleaning, laundry, and grocery shopping — that kind of help. Lately I have noticed a strong smell of urine on her. I also notice it when I do her laundry and I think she is having problems with incontinence. I asked her if she had problems getting to the bathroom on time and she shrugged it off saying, “You have to expect that kind of thing when you are my age.” She is in pretty decent health for her age (86) so I don’t want to push this, but is it normal to lose some bladder control as you age? (From a daughter in Lodi).

Author writes book to assist mothers in imitating Mary

Often sickly as a child, Catholic columnist and author, Marge Fenelon, spent many days lying on the living room sofa looking up at the picture of Mary and baby Jesus on the wall.

The print, a copy of Mother Thrice Admirable, was a gift to her mother from Fr. Joseph Kentenich, the founder of the Apostolic Movement of Schoenstatt, when Fenelon was just a year old.

La alegre noticia de un nuevo diácono: Scott Jablonski

Esta columna es la comunicación del Obispo con los fieles de la Diócesis de Madison. Cualquier circulación más amplia va más allá de la intención del Obispo.

Queridos Amigos,

El fin de semana pasado en Baraboo, ordené a Scott Jablonski en el diaconado y estoy muy agradecido a Scott y al P. Jay Poster y a los fieles en Baraboo por su grandiosa acogida y el gran esfuerzo realizado en la preparación de la Misa. Aquí me gustaría contar algunas cosas que compartí con nuestro nuevo diácono y los feligreses en ese lugar, compartiéndolas ahora por este medio a todos los fieles:

Hijos del obispo

Los diáconos y los sacerdotes de la diócesis son todos, de una manera especial, hijos del obispo. Y a pesar que las edades no encajan precisamente para todos los sacerdotes y diáconos, esto funciona bien en el caso del Diácono Scott.

Y es por eso que es una bendición tan grande ser un obispo, incluso con todo lo demás que conlleva el ministerio; es tan maravilloso porque el obispo puede llamar al diácono o al sacerdote, “mi hijo”.

Este año, en el Año de la Fe, hemos estado hablando de la belleza de nuestra fe — la belleza que se muestra en las obras de caridad (en las que muchos de ustedes trabajan tan bien como comunidad cristiana), la belleza expresada en la liturgia, la belleza que se manifiesta en la Verdad de Jesucristo que recibimos mediante la Iglesia y en la que creemos.

Nuestra vida de la fe es una vida en la que nos encontramos rodeados de la belleza. Y la belleza de nuestra vida de fe es una vida que ha sido captada de manera hermosa por las Escrituras que se leyeron en cada una de nuestras parroquias este fin de semana que pasó – Escrituras que se aplican también de manera hermosa al Diaconado.

Enfocándonos en la muerte, la vida y la misericordia

Esta columna es la comunicación del Obispo con los fieles de la Diócesis de Madison. Cualquier circulación más amplia va más allá de la intención del Obispo.

“Lucharon vida y muerte en singular batalla, Save

Y muerto el Príncipe de la Vida, triunfante se levanta.

“Cristo incluso de la muerte se elevó, obteniéndonos una nueva vida.

¡Ten piedad, rey vencedor, Tú que reinas por siempre!”

(Secuencia de Pascua)

Elegí estas dos líneas para enfocarnos en este Tiempo de Pascua, porque reflejan exactamente los temas que nuestro Santo Padre, el Padre Francisco, lanzó durante varios de los primeros días de Pascua. Él ha lanzado la pregunta y tratado el asunto desde las Escrituras, ¿Por qué buscáis entre los muertos al que está vivo? (Lc 24:5)

“Lucharon vida y muerte en singular batalla,” y la vida triunfó, de manera que el Santo Padre se pregunta, haciendo eco del mensaje del ángel, “¿por qué buscan entre los muertos al que está vivo?

Un segundo punto en el que se ha centrado el Santo Padre es el de asegurarnos, una vez más, que nadie con un corazón abierto y bueno está fuera de los límites de la misericordia de Jesucristo, ganada mediante Su muerte en la Cruz, y confirmada por Su Resurrección.

Y de esta manera, tenemos dos palabras, o grupos de palabras: “muerte y vida” y “misericordia”, sobre las cuales deberíamos meditar en este tiempo de Pascua.
