Welcome to Our Inaugural Issue!

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +

"The Hejnał" is a new project of Our Lady of Częstochowa Church in Turners Falls, Mass.

Each month, you can expect inspiring articles that will enrich your faith. Quotes from the saints and Church Fathers will deepen your prayer life.

Each issue will have a particular focus on devotions for that month, or on items of interest to Catholics.

You can expect solid Catholic teaching, fidelity to the Magisterium of the Church, and respect for the Holy Father.

The Catholic Church has been in the news a great deal lately, and the reports are often written by the Church’s enemies. Imagine how refreshing it will be to read articles written by those who love the Bride of Christ and who defend her traditions and faith!

We hope you will look forward to this free publication in your mailboxes each month, and here on the website. We encourage you to share "The Hejnał" with your friends and families.

We welcome comments and requests for articles. Please email us at thehejnal@gmail.com or use the comment form at the end of each post.

Laughter is a gift from God.

Eddie O’Reilly, the cop, had an emergency call to come help his friend, Tim Flanigan, who was injured in an automobile accident. Eddie got in his car and drove to the spot where Tim lay in a ditch, groaning and moaning. It was a terrible night, with heavy rain, lightning and thunder.


“I ain’t gonna make it, Eddie. Call a rabbi will you? Quick!”

“A rabbi? Are you crazy, Tim? You need a priest, not a rabbi!”

“Do as I say, Eddie. I wouldn’t ask a priest to come out here on a night like this!”

************************************************************
I’ll give till it hurts,” said one parishioner, “but you ought to know I’m terribly sensitive to pain.”

Among other things to pray for when going to church
is a place to park.
