The founders of our nation understood that religion and morality are essential to the survival of a freedom-loving society. Our constitution was made for a moral and religious people. Remember that the first right listed is the right to life. Catholics must not forget that their obligation is to assert the values and principles that we hold essential for the common good, beginning with the right to life of every human being, born and unborn. With this in mind, our Pro-Life Coordinator is inviting us to follow the directions listed on the Pro-Life section of the bulletin board in the church lobby. 3 All families and parishioners are invited to buy SCRIP during the school year: our new hours Tuesdays 8am 10am Wednesdays 1pm 3pm Fridays 8am 10am, and 1pm 3pm Please notice the many new vendors we offer in stock such as BP Gas, Robinson Mall, Starbucks, Valley Wine Cellars, Sunoco, Walgreens, and now, Target!

CONDOLENCES: (CCC 1405) There is no surer pledge or clearer sign of this great hope in the new heavens and new earth in which righteousness dwells, than the Eucharist. Every time this mystery is celebrated, the work of our redemption is carried on and we break the one bread that provides the medicine of immortality, the antidote for death, and the food that makes us live forever in Jesus Christ. With this great hope we pray for our brother and sisters who have died: Glenn Cain, 49, October 10 Rose Pace, 93, October 14 Eunice Catozza, 85, October 14 May they enjoy the eternal banquet the Lord has prepared for them.
