PASTOR'S
MESSAGE
Since
our last Newsletter, a number of important events have taken place in
our community. Most noteworthy was the Dedication of the Chapel Our Lady of Hungary
in the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception,
Washington D.C. This is probably the last Catholic Chapel to be built
at the Basilica that represents the diverse culture of America from
Mexican-American to Hungarian-American and everything in between.
The
Concelebrated Mass was hosted by Donald Cardinal Wuerl, Archbishop of
Washington and Peter Cardinal Erdo, Archbishop of Esztergom,
Hungry. All Hungarian-American parishes were
represented. A relic of Saint Stephen was brought
from the
Saint Stephen Basilica in Budapest and placed into the Hungarian Chapel
as part of the dedication ceremony. For me, it was a deeply
spiritual experience to include the singing of the Hymn: “Gyözelemröl
énekeljen napkelet és napnyugat.”
After
Mass, Cardinal Wuel and
Erdö and the Hungarian Embassy in Washington hosted a reception for
everyone attending this special day. Laszlo Kövér, the
speaker of
the Hungarian Parliament and Reka Szerenyi Ambassador of Hungary to
Washington were also present. A Hungarian band played great
music
and we all had our fill of great Hungarian food and wine. I
felt
like I was back in Hungary.
Thank
you to the 20 members of our
Hungarian Catholic Mission that attended. I know these days
went
so quickly. This was a blessed experience and I want to
personally thank Adam Kobor for hosting our delegation at his
house.
Our
Lady of Hungary and King Saint Stephen, pray for us.

15 Our
Annual Hungarian Picnic
On
a very hot summer day, our Hungarian Catholic Mission put on a
spectacular event bringing together Bay Area Hungarians and local
Hungarian food lovers. We had a long arduous process with the
preparation of the Hungarian dishes. This year is a special year when
several of the secret recipes were handed down to the young members of
our Hungarian Mission. The event started at 11 am and we
served
sumptuous hearty food for lunch.
After
lunch Laszlo Kalman,
Consul General of Hungary delighted the crowds with his insightful
speech about the historical significance of August the 15th. While
feasting on the Hungarian fried bread `langos`, Tibor Horvath and
Yelena Savchenko entertained the guests with their beautiful
melodies. The langos is usually one of the favorite foods.
Thank
you to the Hungarian Reform Church members for making this
possible. Our guests had a wonderful afternoon with great
food.
The proceeds from this picnic will help our many charitable
organizations in Hungary.

dinner hosted by the Kobor family. Our group had a great time enjoying
their hospitality. Thank you Adam and Krisztina Kobor!
Szept 13
Scout Opening ceremony, welcoming
For
this year we had about 10 new families joining the scouts. The
Hungarian School and Hungarian Scouts fill an important role.
While the children are at the Hungarian School, the parents organize
programs together. Notably, we also have American children among the
scouts, whose parents introduce the children to the Hungarian culture.
We have placed special emphasis on the Hungarian language, and for the
children to talk to each other in Hungarian. They learn folk songs,
folk games, and folk arts and crafts.
The
scout fall camp theme
was the legends about King Mathias. It is touching to see how
much work is put in by the leaders and parents, for the scout program
and helping preserve our Hungarian identity.

History
of Woodside Priory
In
a small ranch house where Founders Hall stands today, Father Egon
Javor, OSB celebrated a Mass on November 11, 1956. It was the
feast of Saint Martin, patron Saint of his mother Abbey in Pannonhalma,
Hungary. This day also signified a new beginning for the Hungarian
community of the great San Francisco Bay Area. For
over 58
years, Hungarian priests continue to serve the
Priory. Let
us pray and reflect on the founding members of the priory which would
not exist today without their dedication. Father Egon, Father
Christopher, Father Benignus, Father Achilles, Father Leopold, Father
Stanley and Father Emod, pray for us. We are so blessed for
the
Woodside Priory, the Hungarian Catholic Mission, Hungarian Scouts and
the Center of Hungarian Cultural Activities. In all things,
may
God be glorified!

CULTURE
Enclosed
is the
invitation that was sent
out by the Hungarian Ambassador to the United States for the Dedication
of the Hungarian Chapel at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the
Immaculate Conception. It was a pleasure meeting all the
dignitaries who traveled throughout the world for this memorable
dedication.
Acknowledging
Mary as the “mother of all nations, but especially of us,” Cardinal
Péter Erdö of Esztergom-Budapest joined Washington Cardinal Donald
Wuerl in blessing and dedicating the new Chapel of Our Lady of Hungary
at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception on
Aug. 29.
In his
homily at the Mass that preceded the chapel’s
dedication, Cardinal Erdö prayed that Our Lady as the patroness of
Hungary, joined by the Hungarian saints, would intercede on behalf of
Hungarians living in America and all over the world, and also intercede
on behalf of the United States and its people.
“Our
languages,
traditions and community lives may be very different, but our Catholic
faith is the same all over the world. The Church wants to speak to
everyone so as to find the best way to one’s heart,” the Hungarian
cardinal said in his homily, encouraging people to find hope and
meaning in their lives by meeting Jesus and forming a personal
relationship with him. The cardinal concluded his homily by saying,
“May God give us that this chapel strengthened the community of faith
and love between us.”
The
1,000 pilgrims attending the Mass
and dedication included a delegation from Hungary, and Hungarians from
across the United States and Canada. Cardinal Wuerl, who as archbishop
of Washington serves as the chairman of the National Shrine’s Board of
Trustees, was the principal celebrant of the Mass. The concelebrants
included Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganó, the apostolic nuncio to the
United States and personal representative of Pope Francis; Arlington
Bishop Paul S. Loverde; and Bishop Kurt R. Burnette of the Byzantine
Catholic Eparchy of Passaic, New Jersey.
After
Communion, Msgr.
Walter Rossi, the basilica’s rector, expressed gratitude for the
assistance provided by the Hungarian government to ensure that the
chapel was built. “This is the 81st chapel to be added to the shrine,
and only the second to be financially supported by a country,” he said.
(The government of Austria provided funding for the shrine’s Chapel of
Our Lady of Mariazell, which was dedicated in 1992.)
In
addition
to the support from the government of Hungary and donations from
Hungarians of American descent, the new Our Lady of Hungary Chapel was
built with the support of the Hungarian Catholic Bishops’ Conference,
which is led by Cardinal Erdö.
In
2006 – the 50th anniversary
the Hungarian revolution – the prelate petitioned that a chapel be
established in the National Shrine to honor Our Lady of Hungary and St.
Stephen, the first Christian king of Hungary. The chapel was completed
this spring.
The
dedication of the Chapel of Our Lady of
Hungary, which is located in the basilica’s Crypt level, began with a
procession starting in the Great Upper Church, where the Mass was held.
A first-class relic of St. Stephen – a gift of Cardinal Erdö and the
Archdiocese of Esztergom-Budapest – was brought to the chapel and
placed in a reliquary there.
The
chapel features a large mosaic
of Our Lady of Hungary, surrounded by Hungarian saints Emeric, Gerard,
Ladislaus, Elizabeth, Gizela and Margaret. The altar, made of Hungarian
Tardos marble, is modeled on the design of the altar at the Basilica of
St. Stephen in Hungary. Marble reliefs depict the baptism of St.
Stephen and his coronation as king of Hungary on Christmas Day, 1000,
and St. Stephen giving his crown to the Blessed Virgin Mary on the day
of his death in 1038. St. Stephen unified Hungary into a single kingdom
and established Christianity as its religion.
Hungarian
marble and stone were used to construct the walls, floor and
altar of the chapel, which were fabricated in Hungary.
Hungarian
Scouts, including boys and girls and young adults, handed out programs
and helped serve as ushers for the Mass and ceremony. The Mass, with
readings in English and Hungarian, opened with a prelude that included
the Ave Maria by the famous Hungarian composer Franz Liszt, and music
from other noted Hungarian composers, including Zoltán Kodály, was sung
throughout the liturgy.
After
Communion, Dr. Réka Szemerkényi –
the ambassador of Hungary to the United States – noted how Hungarian
refugees fleeing Communist oppression in their country found hope in
the United States, and relied on their faith as they built new lives in
this country. “Generations of Hungarians arrived in the United States
with suitcases in their hands, and felt it was their first priority to
build churches,” she said.
The
new chapel, she said, is a source
of great joy for Hungarians. “A chapel is not about the past. It is
about our present values, and hope for the future,” the ambassador said.
Dr.
László Kövér, the speaker of the Hungarian National Assembly, also
spoke after Communion, noting, “We believe faith and morality will
always remain the foundation of the future of mankind. This chapel will
without doubt be a spiritual home for Hungarians and Hungarian
Americans.”
Cardinal
Wuerl in his closing remarks at the Mass
said, “The chapel will be a visible, physical reminder to all of us of
the bonds we share that unite us in faith and history.”
After
the chapel was dedicated, the pilgrims lining up to see it included
Maria Kauremszky, who lives in Niagara Falls, Ontario, and is a member
of Our Lady of Hungary Church in Welland, Ontario. Following the 1956
revolution in Hungary, she and her parents and four siblings escaped to
Canada, when she was 12, with “what we had on our backs. It was
difficult,” she said, adding, “We always had our faith. That’s the
foundation of our lives.”
Robert
Popper, who fled from Hungary
as a young man in 1950 and is now retired and living in Washington,
said with his Catholic faith, “I never felt alone.”
The
gift
bearers at the Mass included five young adults of Hungarian descent
wearing native costumes. Sylvia Földes-Berman, 19, wore a deep green
vest and skirt with ornate, hand-sewn embroidery, and her sister Andrea
Berman,17, wore a matching red outfit. Both are members of St. Stephen
Hungarian Roman Catholic Church in Passaic, New Jersey. When asked
about Hungarians’ devotion to Our Lady, the older sister said, “She’s
our mother, socially and religiously.”

to quickly expand our women shelters. Help us grow our Battered Women
Shelter in Budapest, Hungary.
Goal:
$50,000
Achieved:
$5,065
Disaster
Relief
In
2011, Hungary was routinely plagued by floods along the Tisza River and
there tributaries. Thousands have been left homeless and scores of
others killed. Working with government, aid agencies and local
churches, we directly distribute money to the families affected. This
year we were able to help 12 families. Your donation will allow homes
to be rebuilt, and families to start over. In 2012, our Hungarian Flood
Victim fund will add money to purchase farm equipment to displaced
Hungarian farmers.
Goal:
$50,000
Achieved: $2,925
Education
Scholarships for Hungarian Children
Approximately
3,000,000 Hungarians live in Transylvania that is now a part of
Romania. Our foundation will provide funding for Hungarian and
Romanians to improve cultural diversity, dignity, and respect programs.
Funding will also go to fund textbooks for elementary aged students.
Our goal is to also fund up to four (4) Hungarian high school students
per year to attend our Catholic High School at Woodside Priory, located
in Portola Valley, California. Funding includes tuition, food and
lodging. Two students will come from Hungary and 2 students will be
selected from Transylvania, Romania.
Goal:
$50,000

Hungarian
Ministry Abroad
Catholics
throughout the world are feeling the increased shortage of ordained
priests to serve their dioceses. There are approximately 31 Hungarian
Priests/Parishes in the United States serving the religious needs of
975,000 Hungarian Catholics. That is a priest to parishioner ration of
1: 31,451. In most Catholic dioceses in Hungary, the ratio is 1 priest
to an average of 3,000 parishioners. Our goal is to help fund part of
the seminary costs in Budapest, Hungary. We are currently working with
the Bishop in developing a joint internship program, whereby young
Hungarian priests can do a 3-5 year pastoral fellowship in any of our
31 Hungarian parishes in the United States. By establishing these
bonds, both the American and Hungarian Catholic communities will work
closer together in keeping our faith, culture and charity alive. The
average age of our Hungarian priests in the United States is 74 years
old. Without a strategic change, our Hungarian Catholic identity will
be gone forever within 10 years. Make a difference today.
Goal:
$50,000
Achieved: $14,600
The
Ildiko Zentai Foundation
The
foundation was established by the Zentai Family to preserve the memory
of Ildikó with an initial donation of $10,000. A large part of her life
in the last years were dedicated to the preservation of Hungarian
culture, education, and alleviating poverty in California and in
Hungary.
This foundation functions under the non-profit Hungarian
Catholic Mission in the San Francisco Bay Area. Everyone is eligible to
apply for funding from the Foundation, without regard to religious
preference, for their work in the preservation and advancement of
Hungarian cultural traditions, to support educational needs, and to
help alleviate poverty in Hungary, Transylvania, and
California.
Goal:
$50,000
Achieved: $17,390
General
Fund
The
Hungarian Catholic Mission is constant striving towards improving the
Hungarian identity though faith culture and charity. We are working
towards helping out with donations for Battered Women in Hungary,
Disaster Relief, Deva Foundations, Supporting Hungarian Ministry
Abroad, and Education Scholarships for Hungarian Children. In order to
do this we need to maintain our own organization.
Fortunately,
most of the overhead costs for our administrative facilities are
covered by Woodside Priory. However, we do require funding to maintain
the mission.
Goal:
$50,000
Achieved:
$11,400
