November 29, 2009

Our sincere condolences to the family of Regina Ciuberkis, who died this week here in Cleveland at the age of 81. Regina was a board member of the Cleveland Lithuanian newspaper Dirva, and an officer of the Lithuanian American Community. She is survived by daughters Danute Grigaliunas and Ilone Schmid, her son Arunas and sister Lilija Ramonis. The funeral mass for Regina Ciuberkis was held yesterday at St. Casimir.

The Cleveland Lithuanian Pensininkiu Klubas will hold their monthly lunch meeting and Christmas party this Thursday, December 3rd at 12 noon at Lithuanian Village.

The Lithuanian Scouts will hold their annual Christmas Fair next Sunday, December 6th
in the lower hall at St. Casimir, beginning after 8:00 am mass in the lower hall at St. Casimir, and continuing throughout the morning.

Korp Giedra will sponsor a jewelry show and sale on Sunday December 13th at St. Casimir. The show will feature works by Lina Palubinskas, Dr. Roma Jasinevicius-Degesys and Dr. Birute Balciunaite-Penkiuniene.


St. Casimir will be the host parish for an Advent Penance Service on Monday, December 14th at 7:00 pm. Six priests from St. Jerome, St. Mary, Holy Redeemer and St. Casimir will be on hand to hear confessions in English, Lithuanian, Slovenian and Italian.

Here’s a liturgical heads up for you if you’re heading to mass at St. Casimir this morning. Beginning with the Advent season, and continuing on as a regular practice, St. Casimir will be making some changes to reflect the General Instructions of the Roman Missal. The congregation is invited to stand from the end of the Eucharistic Prayer until everyone has received communion.

The world travel photography of Henrikas Stasas is available for purchase at the St. Casimir parish bookstore, in addition to all the books, CDs and Lithuanian foods.

Traditional Christmas wafers are now available at the St. Casimir rectory during business hours, and in Church after masses.
