REMEMBER THOSE IN THE ARMED FORCES
Heavenly Father, keep safe the women and men serving our
country in the Armed Forces around the world, especially those
who work to bring order to Iraq and Afghanistan, and give
eternal rest to those who have died in the struggle for peace
and freedom.
The Chaplet of Divine Mercy will be publicly prayed Monday Friday following the 9:30 am mass and every Saturday after
the 8:30 am mass in the Church Cry Room. This will bring
many graces and blessings to our parish family. We all have
many intentions and this is a powerful devotion to draw down
all the graces we need especially at this critical time in our
nation and culture. Come join with us after Mass and
experience for yourself the "font of love, peace and mercy that
Jesus promises to those who honor Him with this devotion!"
For more information, contact Sandy Cunningham at 609-2077563.
“Each day the people are to go out and gather their daily
portion; thus will I test them, to see whether they follow
my instructions or not.” (EXODUS 16:4)
When the Israelites gathered more than
their daily portion of manna, the surplus
became wormy and rotten. In the same way
today, God calls us to be content with a fair
portion and to be willing to share the rest.
CHOOSE LIFE
“It’s scary, and it knocks the breath out of you.
It takes a long time to come to terms with a
disease, especially a terminal illness. And then
you start thinking, ‘Okay, this is the new me,
this is the new normal, and I can still
appreciate every moment.’”
— Maggie Karner in “Maggie’s Story,” a 3-minute video available
at www.bit.ly/MaggiesStory (wife, mother of three, living with
terminal illness)

GROWING
IN FAITH TOGETHER
GIFT is family-based, rather than strictly classroom based,
religious education held once a month instead of every week.
The children and their parents attend one three-hour session
each month, based on their choice at registration and
availability of space in each session. The family attends the
same weekday and time each month. Most sessions are
planned to be on or near the third/fourth weekend of each
month. At this time, families with children with special needs
will have their session on Saturdays only.
Each month a new educational topic is discussed. The entire
group meets first in the Cafeteria, where prayer and a light
meal take place. Then Grades K through 8 participate in age
appropriate classroom instruction while the parents/adults have
a speaker in the Cafeteria to inform them of the month’s topic.
All children return to their respective families near the end of
the session to discuss that month’s topic together. Dismissal
with prayer and the monthly handout for families to continue
their education together until next month is last. Adult children
or family members, in addition to those pre-registered, are
welcome each month. Childcare, for children age 2-5 who are
potty trained, is also offered. ALL PARISHIONERS ARE
INVITED TO ATTEND
We will have 6 sessions (3rd / 4th weekend of the month - dates will
vary)
– Saturday 9am to 12pm
– Monday 6pm to 9pm
– Sunday 10:15am to 1:15pm
– Tuesday 5pm to 8pm
Registration is offered on a first come, first-served basis. Class
size will be limited. Please mail or hand-deliver your
COMPLETED registration form WITH the registration fee to the
GIFT office. All currently registered families received
registration forms in their respective G.I.F.T. folders during
April G.I.F.T. sessions. New registrants may obtain a
registration form with complete instructions from the table in
the lobby or at the GIFT Office (Room 4) in the school.

Over the centuries, prayer shawls have come to symbolize
shelter, peace and spiritual sustenance. The members of our
Prayer Shawl Ministry have lovingly donated their time and
talents by creating hand-knitted and crocheted shawls, filled
with the power of prayer, for those in need. The prayer shawl
maker begins with prayers and blessings for the recipient. The
intentions are continued throughout the creation of the shawl.
Upon completion, a final blessing is offered before the shawl is
sent on its way. The blessing of the Prayer Shawl provides
healing and comfort to the sick, the lonely and the elderly. Like
all acts of generosity, the presentation of a Prayer Shawl
enriches the giver as well as the recipient. The blessing
ripples from person-to-person, with both the giver and receiver
feeling the unconditional embrace of a sheltering, loving God!
Since the first official meeting of the Prayer Shawl Ministry in
June 2010, we have distributed 113 shawls and 23 lap
blankets. Our thanks to everyone who contributed to this
venture so far. To request a prayer shawl, please call Maria
Tiberi at 732-254-1775, or Paula Liquari at 732-251-0586.
