The voting by cardinals to elect the next pope takes<br />
place behind the locked doors of the Sistine Chapel, following<br />
a highly detailed procedure last revised by Pope<br />
Benedict XVI. Under the rules, secret ballots can be cast<br />
once on the first day of the conclave, then normally twice<br />
during each subsequent morning and evening session.<br />
Except for periodic pauses, the voting continues until a<br />
new pontiff is elected. Only cardinals under the age of 80<br />
when the “sede vacante,” or the period between the<br />
death or lawful resignation of one pope and the election<br />
of his successor, begins are eligible to enter the conclave<br />
and vote for the next pope. In theory, any baptized<br />
male <strong>Catholic</strong> can be elected pope, but current church<br />
law says he must become a bishop before taking office;<br />
since the 15th century, the electors always have chosen<br />
a fellow cardinal. Each vote begins with the preparation<br />
and distribution of paper ballots by two masters of ceremonies,<br />
who are among a handful of noncardinals allowed<br />
into the chapel at the start of the session. Then the names of nine voting cardinals are<br />
chosen at random: three to serve as “scrutineers,” or voting judges; three to collect the votes of<br />
any sick cardinals who remain in their quarters at the Domus Sanctae Marthae; and three<br />
“revisers” who check the work of the scrutineers. The paper ballot is rectangular. On the top half<br />
is printed the Latin phrase “Eligo in Summum Pontificem” (“I elect as the most high pontiff”), and<br />
the lower half is blank for the writing of the name of the person chosen. After all the noncardinals<br />
have left the chapel, the cardinals fill out their ballots secretly, legibly, and fold them twice.<br />
Meanwhile, any ballots from sick cardinals are collected and brought back to the chapel.<br />
Each cardinal then walks to the altar, holding up his folded ballot so it can be seen, and says<br />
aloud: “I call as my witness Christ the Lord who will be my judge, that my vote is given to the one<br />
who before God I think should be elected.” He places his ballot on a plate, or paten, and then<br />
slides it into a receptacle, traditionally a large chalice. When all the ballots have been cast, the<br />
first scrutineer shakes the receptacle to mix them. He then transfers the ballots to a new urn,<br />
counting them to make sure they correspond to the number of electors. The ballots are read out.<br />
Each of the three scrutineers examines each ballot one by one, with the last scrutineer calling<br />
out the name on the ballot, so all the cardinals can record the tally. The last scrutineer pierces<br />
each ballot with a needle through the word “Eligo” and places it on a thread, so they can be secured.<br />
After the names have been read out, the votes are counted to see if someone has obtained<br />
a two-thirds majority needed for election. The revisers then double-check the work of the<br />
scrutineers for possible mistakes. At this point, any handwritten notes made by the cardinals during<br />
the vote are collected for burning with the ballots. If the first vote of the morning or evening<br />
session is inconclusive, a second vote normally follows immediately, and the ballots from both<br />
votes are burned together at the end. If a conclave has not elected a pope after 13 days, the cardinals<br />
pause for a day of prayer, reflection and dialogue, then move to a runoff election between<br />
the two cardinals who obtained the most votes on the previous ballot. The two leading cardinals<br />
do not vote in the runoff ballots, though they remain in the Sistine Chapel. When a pope is elected,<br />
the ballots are burned immediately. By tradition, the ballots are burned dry—or with chemi-<br />
cal additives—to produce white smoke when a pope has been elected; they are burned with<br />
damp straw or other chemicals to produce black smoke when the voting has been inconclusive.
Giving through the CFA…..is giving even more to <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Leo</strong>’s<br />
This week’s message is a printed version of the homily which Father Jarek<br />
delivered on the <strong>Catholic</strong> Faith Appeal. Per request, it is transcribed here.<br />
When I visit my parents in my native Poland I sometimes like to walk<br />
down the familiar streets alone, allowing myself to be undistracted. I am<br />
always amazed by how much change has occurred in the past 20 years. I<br />
see nice homes and cars, perfectly renovated old buildings and<br />
cobblestone streets bustling with great shopping, fancy restaurants and<br />
eclectic boutiques. I am amazed because not so long ago, the economic<br />
situation in my homeland was devastated by communism and living there<br />
was not easy. Basic food products and other daily necessities were hard to<br />
come by. For instance, to get a loaf of bread or a small bottle of milk for<br />
breakfast, my parents had to stand in line, often from 4 o’clock in the<br />
morning, because the quantity was always limited.<br />
The eighties were particularly difficult. In December of 1981, I was 10 years old. My father was lucky<br />
enough to get one orange from work as a bonus. The orange was my Christmas gift that year. My younger<br />
sister and I cherished it dearly. It looked so delicious and exotic. For days we just kept looking at it and<br />
imagining that one day we would taste it. We decided that we would enjoy it on my father's upcoming<br />
birthday in January.<br />
However, at the turn of 1982, due to strange weather anomalies, the temperature rose rapidly and ice jams<br />
caused a record breaking flood on the Vistula River, twenty miles downstream from our home. Many<br />
people were left homeless and my parents decided to bring a young family to stay with us. I remember how<br />
their five year old daughter was scared. She sobbed all evening and kept asking her parents when they could<br />
return home. She cried until my mother told her: "Sweetie, don't cry, Jarek has something nice for you."<br />
To my terror, I realized that my mother just gave away my orange. orange Knowing how unhappy that made me,<br />
she approached me and whispered, “She needs it more than you. So just let her have it. I promise God will<br />
reward you one day and you will have as many oranges as you want.” Her words were prophetic. Here I am<br />
in Florida, oranges are all around. There is even one on my license plate.<br />
The motive for Christian giving should always be love, not the desire for rewards. But there are rewards<br />
nonetheless, because it is in giving that we receive. receive In his letter to the Corinthians <strong>St</strong> Paul calls the local<br />
<strong>Church</strong> to give to another church in Jerusalem and he mentions multiple tangible and intangible rewards. He<br />
tells them: You will receive unlimited blessings, your needs will always be met and you will always have<br />
resources for giving.<br />
The amount of blessing that we reap is limited only by the manner of our sowing. The proper sowing<br />
attitude is not just to "sow big," but "sow on the basis of blessings.” In other words, we should be involved<br />
in doing things which bring help and happiness to other people. Then we ourselves will reap on the basis of<br />
our blessings. We will receive unlimited help and happiness in return.<br />
The Lord can also bless us abundantly for our support of the <strong>Catholic</strong> Faith Appeal. Appeal Through its various<br />
programs, we catechize children, train new priests, and assist the hungry, the homeless, and the oppressed<br />
on a daily basis. Certainly the Lord will not leave such charity unrewarded.
In addition to spiritual fulfillment, there are also immediate tangible rewards for our parish of <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Leo</strong> when<br />
we contribute to the <strong>Catholic</strong> Faith Appeal. Appeal Let me explain, each dollar which is taken in by many parishes<br />
in the United <strong>St</strong>ates through weekly collections and certain donations are subject to an assessment, or more<br />
precisely a church tax. In our diocese the assessment for each parish is annually calculated based on<br />
income, and the bills are presented. Our bill for <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Leo</strong> for <strong>2013</strong> is $420, 000 and it must be paid. How we<br />
choose to pay it can have great consequences on the financial health and stability of the parish.<br />
Again, money brought in through weekly collections and certain other donations is subject to a diocesan<br />
assessment or taxation of 26%. However, money brought in through the CFA is NOT SUBJECT to<br />
assessment. The most economical way to pay our tax bill is directly through our CFA pledges with what are<br />
in effect pre-taxed pre taxed dollars. dollars In 2012 our CFA contributions fell short of our goal by over $170,000. Now we<br />
have no choice but to pay that bill using operating funds from the parish with more expensive, post tax<br />
dollars. And this must be done by June 30th to avoid interest accruing on the unpaid balance.<br />
According to last year’s CFA final status report there are some parishes in this diocese that have<br />
enormously successful results exceeding their assessment targets. What is it about these parishes? Are they<br />
more generous than us? Do they love our bishop more than we do? I don’t think so. I think these parishes<br />
simply discovered how to make the CFA work for them.<br />
Every dollar contributed to the CFA in excess of the goal up to 125 % is returned to the parish. And here is<br />
the best part: this money is not assessed or taxed. taxed Theoretically, we could get $105,000 returned to us<br />
completely ASSESSMENT FREE. Actually, since our parish has an outstanding debt, additional funds<br />
could also qualify for assessment free status. I guess you can call it the diocesan version of a “tax<br />
loophole.”<br />
I would like you to consider taking advantage of this little “tax-loophole” for <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Leo</strong>. If we could set our<br />
sights on pledging to the CFA 100% of our diocesan “goal” we could pay our taxes without having to use<br />
our post tax dollars from our operating budget. And even better, if we can pledge over 100% of our goal<br />
there is that beautiful “tax-loophole” waiting for us to take advantage<br />
of.<br />
I want to thank all of you who have already generously returned<br />
your pledge cards. If you have not, please consider doing so soon.<br />
You may update your pledge, or register a new one by visiting our<br />
website and clicking on the "Donate to CFA" banner, or calling the<br />
diocesan office at 941-486-4722, or contacting the parish office at<br />
239-992-0901.<br />
You have been extremely generous to this parish. I want you to be<br />
comfortable in knowing that by paying the parish assessment direct-<br />
ly through the CFA you are not only helping those in need but you<br />
are helping <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Leo</strong> in the most financially efficient manner. manner<br />
The orange story of my childhood always reminds me that God’s<br />
rewards for our generosity are plentiful. As we work to bring the<br />
light of hope to others, we actually light our own way. As someone<br />
once said, “We become more as we offer to the world our gifts of<br />
love, compassion and wisdom.” As we give selflessly, we know in<br />
our hearts that it will be returned to us one way or another because<br />
our God of goodness sees all goodness in us.<br />

Jesus. Come meet women who will change your life. (Feast Day: <strong>March</strong> 7)<br />
<strong>March</strong> 13- The Beatitudes. The teaching of Jesus that appears in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke. These ethical teachings<br />
are presented as 8 blessings in Matthew’s Sermon on the Mount. On the other hand, Luke’s Sermon on the Plain presents them<br />
as four blessings, followed by four woes that mirror the blessings. In either case, these teachings represent the very pinnacle<br />
of Jesus’ vision of the Kingdom. How can we draw from their wisdom and apply their ethic to our lives as Christians?<br />
The classes are offered in the Education Building, Room 13-14 at 9am on Wednesdays.

WELCOMING RETURNING AND<br />
INACTIVE CATHOLICS<br />
If you are a <strong>Catholic</strong> who has been away from the <strong>Church</strong>,<br />
know that we are thinking about you. We invite you to be an<br />
active part of us again.<br />
LANDINGS is a program that offers a "safe place to land," a<br />
place for listening and for being heard, a place for asking<br />
questions and for reconnecting with the faith as an adult.<br />
A small group of active <strong>Catholic</strong>s, some of them "returnees"<br />
themselves, meets with a small group of inactive or returning<br />
<strong>Catholic</strong>s to share and explore their faith together on Tuesday<br />
evenings,<br />
7-8:15 p.m., in the Parish Life Center.<br />
If you are interested and want more information, contact Peter<br />
& Paula Hand, (239) 221-8878 or paulahand416@gmail.com.<br />

Altar Servers<br />
Being an altar server is a special honor and a great<br />
privilege in the <strong>Catholic</strong> <strong>Church</strong>. Through this unique<br />
ministry a young person can spread the message of<br />
Christ through their actions and words. Being an altar<br />
server is not difficult, but you must have received your<br />
First Holy Communion and attend training. We need<br />
additional youth altar servers for the Sunday 5:00pm<br />
Holy Mass.<br />
Please contact C.J. Costino at (248) 390-7560 or at<br />

of our faith community, they attend funerals<br />
of dear ones. They honor the departed in a final act of<br />
love as they travel toward their heavenly home. Please<br />
call Kathleen Chin at 992-7937 for more information.<br />
Homebound Ministers<br />
Homebound Ministers have the privilege of taking the<br />
Lord, present in the Eucharist, to our fellow parishioners<br />
who are unable to attend Mass. Your visit will assure<br />
them that the <strong>St</strong>. <strong>Leo</strong> Community is one in spirit<br />
and prayer with them. The rewards are many for those<br />
who have a small amount of time to devote to this ministry.<br />

Benedicto XVI. Según las normas, las votaciones secretas se<br />
pueden emitir una vez en el primer día del cónclave, luego normalmente<br />
dos veces durante cada sesión subsiguiente por la mañana y<br />
por la tarde. Salvo por pausas periódicas, la votación continúa hasta<br />
que se elige un nuevo pontífice. Sólo los cardenales menores de 80<br />
años cuando empieza la “sede vacante”, o el periodo comprendido<br />
entre la muerte o renuncia legal de un papa y la elección de su sucesor,<br />
califican para entrar en el cónclave y votar por el próximo papa.<br />
En teoría, cualquier católico varón bautizado puede ser elegido papa,<br />
pero la ley actual de la Iglesia dice que debe convertirse en obispo<br />
antes de asumir el cargo; desde el siglo XV, los electores siempre han elegido un colega cardenal.<br />
Cada votación se inicia con la preparación y distribución de las papeletas por dos maestros de<br />
ceremonias, que figuran entre las pocas personas aparte de los cardenales admitidas en la capilla<br />
al comienzo de la sesión. A continuación, se eligen al azar los nombres de nueve cardenales electores:<br />
tres para servir como “escrutadores”, o jueces electorales; tres para recoger los votos de los<br />
cardenales enfermos —si los hubiera— que permanecen en sus habitaciones en la Domus Sanctae<br />
Marthae, y tres “revisores” que verifican el trabajo de los escrutadores. La papeleta es rectangular.<br />
En la mitad superior está impresa la frase latina “Eligo in Summum Pontificem” (“Elijo como Sumo<br />
Pontífice”), y la mitad inferior está en blanco para que se escriba el nombre de la persona elegida.<br />
Después de que todos los que no son cardenales han dejado la capilla, los cardenales llenan sus<br />
papeletas en secreto, de forma legible, y las doblan dos veces. Mientras tanto, se recogen y se<br />
llevan de vuelta a la capilla las papeletas de los cardenales enfermos.<br />
Cada cardenal luego camina hacia el altar, levantando su papeleta doblada para que pueda ser<br />
vista, y dice en voz alta: “Pongo por testigo a Cristo Señor, el cual me juzgará, de que doy mi<br />
voto a quien, en presencia de Dios, creo que debe ser elegido”. Pone su papeleta en un plato, o<br />
patena, y luego la introduce en un receptáculo, tradicionalmente un cáliz de gran tamaño. Cuando<br />
se han depositado todas las papeletas, el primer escrutador sacude el receptáculo para mezclarlas.<br />
Luego transfiere las papeletas a una nueva urna, contándolas para asegurarse de que se corresponden<br />
con el número de electores. Se leen las papeletas. Cada uno de los tres escrutadores examina<br />
cada papeleta una por una, y el último escrutador dice en voz alta el nombre escrito en la<br />
papeleta, para que todos los cardenales puedan registrar el conteo. El último escrutador va cosiendo<br />
todas las papeletas con aguja e hilo a través de la palabra “Eligo”, para que se mantengan juntas.<br />
Después de que se han leído los nombres, se cuentan los votos para ver si alguien ha obtenido<br />
la mayoría de dos tercios necesaria para ser elegido. Luego, los revisores Atención vuelven Padres! a verificar el trabajo<br />
de los escrutadores para detectar posibles errores. En este punto se recogen las notas manuscritas<br />
