Today’s Scripture

Philippians 4:6-9

Matthew 21:33-43

The God of peace is with us.

By God’s grace, modern medicine and science have made great strides in helping people deal with anxiety. Today, we are encouraged to know that being grounded in a good prayer life can also go a long way toward lessening the anxieties that disrupt the quiet of our hearts.

SAFETY TIP of THE WEEK -

PARKING RULES The lower and upper parking lots are striped to indi-cate available spots for parking, including ones closest to the Church building for handicap-accessibility. AT NO TIME should anyone be parking “three deep” on the lower lot. Parking is also not allowed between the end of the lined spots and the grass on the edge of the lot, as this lane must be kept available for official emer-gency vehicles, i.e. ambulance or fire truck. Following these guidelines will help keep our park-ing lot safe and accessible for all parishioners and guests. Please take note. Questions or concerns may be be directed to Fr. Paul, the Church office (845-733-1477) or Sam Osborne (845-978-9702).

Ushers’ Meeting

on October 14 All Ushers are asked to come to a special meeting on Saturday, October 14 at 10:00 AM in the Church. We’ll be sharing some important points re-garding Operation Archangel. If you

have questions, call Rich Cinque at 845-733-4740.

Come to our Next Youth Mass! The Religious Education students and Catechists will host their next Youth Mass on Saturday, October 14 at 5:30 PM. It will be followed by a bake sale to support-the Helping Hands Food Pantry.

From Thea Woodward “I wish to thank the wonderful OLA family for their beautiful prayer shawl. I also want to give you my heart-felt thanks for your prayers.”

Sgt. Trazino of the O.C. Spe-cial Operations SWAT Team recently visited our Church properties with Fr. Paul and some members of OLA, after which he made a number of recommendations how to make OLA a safer place in

which to worship and hold our activities. Our Operation Archangel steering committee met and is prioritizing some safety-related changes. One is that beginning to-day, each week’s bulletin will have a “Safety Tip” of the week. We appreciate your patience, cooperation and help with this important initiative!
