OFFICE OF THE CARDINAL 1011 FIRST AVENUE NEW YORK, NY 10022 October 2018 Dear friends in the Lord: At Baptism, each of us is marked by the Lord and entrusted with a special responsibility to tell the world of His message and invitation. We are, indeed, called to serve as His missionaries. World Mission Sunday affords all baptized Catholics an opportunity to celebrate their missionary vocation through prayer and sacrifice for the missionary work of the Church. This year s World Mission Sunday, October 20th, marks the 110th Anniversary of our mission independence. Through 1908, the Church in the United States was the beneficiary of the generosity of the Catholic faithful of Europe through the Society of the Propagation of the Faith. In fact, two-thirds of the very first collection of the Propagation of the Faith, in 1822, was sent to the Church in America, making it possible to build churches and schools, educate clergy and religious, provide for the good works of religious communities, and support evangelization here at home. By a 1908 papal decree, the designation mission territory was removed from the United States. More than one hundred years later, as we recall our own mission history, we are called upon to assist both spiritually and financially the more than 1,150 young churches in Asia, Africa, the Pacific Islands, and Latin America, all of which have the same needs that the United States once had. With this in mind, please be as generous as your means allow this World Mission Sunday so that the Propagation of the Faith can continue to spread the Good News to the growing faith communities of our day. So, too, following the call of our Holy Father, Pope Francis, let us pray that our celebration of World Mission Sunday will generate within us a renewed awareness of the need to proclaim the Gospel to all corners of the world. With prayerful best wishes, I am, Faithfully in Christ, +Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan Archbishop of New York Rosary Rally Come join The Carmelite Sisters for the Aged and Infirm for their annual Rosary Rally Saturday, October 20, 2018 Outdoor Procession begins at 2:00pm Enjoy our beautiful property on the banks of the Hudson, followed by Mass in our Chapel.

Skillfully laid out by Uncle Al s talented volunteers, it was a sight to behold. And many parishioners and folks from the community took advantage of the big sale. A huge thank you to all who helped in any way. Many hours were spent planning, carrying in display items and transferring clothing, etc. to the school, not to mention the cleanup. Teamwork and a sense of humor worked together to create a unique shopping experience. Uncle Al s on Franklin Avenue continues to thrive. Our display window announces the arrival of fall. Step inside and see the lovely colors of autumn displayed in the clothing and in the shop. Halloween is all around costumes, accessories, decorations to place in your home or outside. Our generous parishioners and community friends continue to bring in wonderful donations that get priced and placed for sale as quickly as possible, so if you think the 3-day sale depleted the stock, that s not so!
