Congratulations Father Ivan
This past Wednesday evening, at 5:00pm, our Archbishop, Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan conducted a special Vespers Service in the Lady Chapel of Saint Patrick’s Cathedral. During the service, our own Father Ivan Lovric, along with several other international priests, was incardinated (inducted) as a priest of the Archdiocese of New York. At the Cardinal’s wish, the guest list of those attending was kept small. Along with a few of father’s friends, Monsignor Nevin, Deacon Jim and several other priests were also present for the service.
As many of you may know, Fr. Ivan was here in New York when he ministered at the parish of Annunciation, Crestwood, for a little over seven years. It was during this time that father earned his doctorate at Fordham University and became a U.S. citizen. Five years ago, when father’s bishop gave him permission to return to New York and exercise his priestly ministry here, we were fortunate enough to have him come to Saint Aedan’s.
What is the meaning of incardination? Every priest or deacon must have an ordinary (bishop). Incardination ensures that no one is “freelance”, without a clear ecclesiastical superior to whom the cleric is accountable and who, in turn, is accountable for the cleric.
Incardination in one diocese does not cease until the moment when that cleric, promising obedience and respect, is incardinated as a subject another bishop. An excardination from one diocese, does not become effective until the moment of incardination to another in order that there is no gap during which the cleric is not clearly answerable to a definitely determined bishop.
The bottom line is that father’s incardination means that his bishop, in Serajevo, Croatia, officially granted permission for father to transfer from his diocese over to the Archdiocese of New York. Cardinal Dolan is now Father’s proper ordinary (bishop) and father’s status is that of an Archdiocesan priest. Fr. Ivan will also be considered a part of whatever Archdiocesan class he would have belonged to if his ordination had taken place here in NY.
We are presently working on a date for Father Ivan to celebrate a 12 PM Sunday Mass of Thanksgiving followed by a reception in the parish gym so that parishioners may congratulate father personally.
Congratulations Father Ivan. God bless you in your continuing priestly ministry to the people of our parish and the great Archdiocese of New York. Ad Multos Annos. -

Once Again, any email from Msgr like this = Fraud:
I got this myself, allegedly from Msgr Nevin:
Hello, how are you doing? I have an assignment I need you to do for me immediately. Let me know if you are available. So kindly respond back via email.
here's another one from today (12/4)!Hello, How are you doing?
I need a favor from you, email me as soon as you get this message.
May God continue to bless the joy of our fellowship as you seek to be faithfully to my calling
Rev. Msgr. Emmet
Pastor.
Another parishioner reported getting one that requested gift cards be purchased for helping out with some special project...
Key things to look for in a email like this - who does it "say" it is coming from, and where is it actually coming from.
The email says it is from "Rev. Msgr. Emmet R. Nevin" - Monsignor has no emails that say that; he never strings all the titles together.
The email return address in this case says:[officemail6515@gmail... and the new one RectorEpiscopal@ ... this one doesn't even have the right denomination]
If you are not sure, call the Rectory and confirm any inquiries - especially if it seems like someone is requesting money or 'gift cards' ... In most email programs, if you simply move your cursor over the name of the person sending you the email ("mouse-over"), it will show you in the bottom left corner of your screen the 'actual' place / person sending the email. (Though, the new format from my Optimum account seems to have removed that feature.)

Prayer to the Virgin Mary for our ProtectionO Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope.
We entrust ourselves to you,
Health of the Sick.
At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain, with steadfast faith.
You, Our Lady of New York,
know what we need.
We are certain that you will provide, so that, as you did at Cana of Galilee,
joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial.
Help us, Mother of Divine Love,
to conform ourselves to the Father’s will
and to do what Jesus tells us:
He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us,
through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen.We seek refuge under your protection,
O Holy Mother of God.
Do not despise our pleas – we who are put to the test – and deliver us from every danger,
O glorious and blessed Virgin.
PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF UKRAINE and RUSSIA“My heart aches greatly… And now I would like to appeal to everyone, believers and non-believers alike. Jesus taught us that the diabolical senselessness of violence is answered with God’s weapons, with prayer and fasting. May the Queen of Peace preserve the world from the madness of war.” Pope Francis, February 23,2022
God of peace and justice,
we pray for the people of Ukraine today.
We pray for peace and the laying down of weapons.
We pray for all those who fear for tomorrow,
that Your Spirit of comfort would draw near to them.
We pray for those with power over war or peace, for wisdom, discernment and compassion to guide their decisions.
Above all, we pray for all Your precious children, at risk and in fear,
that You would hold and protect them.
We pray in the name of Jesus, the Prince of Peace.
AmenArchbishop Justin Welby
Archbishop Stephen Cottrell
Archbishops of Canterbury & York
