The New Energies InitiativeOur New Energies initiative between the
Church of Saint Mary and Saint Josephcontinues to move along. While it has beenawhile since our last update, Father Mike andFather Joe have met with Bishop da Cunha torecharge our efforts.
The Implementation Teams from bothparishes, Father Mike Kreder, Mary Lanni,Sister Ines Marie, Nancy Barckett, DaveValente, Betty Hatler and Debbie Moranfrom Saint Mary and Fr. Joe Astarita, FranAlberta, Marian Koob and Verna Paiotti fromSaint Joseph and Gladys Pozza from theArchdiocese of Newark have been meeting torevitalize our efforts to share programs,
resources and enhance the worship experience for all ourparishioners. Our meetings have been productive and energizing. Both parishes have a strong sense of community with goodliturgy so in looking at ways that we could make things evenbetter, the teams focused on areas that needed support.
We see opportunities to share retreat experiences, adulteducation programs, RCIA, family faith sharing and some verypractical matters as sharing expertise in management andfinances. So our recommendation to the Archdiocese was thatwe would partner with each other in these areas. We are now inthe implementation stage of the initiative. We will be meetingover the next few months to co-develop the required action steps. We look forward to this association with our neighbors as wejointly work toward serving the people of God well in this areaof God’s kingdom.
Going forward, keep checking this section of the bulletin forupdates to our plan as well as upcoming events. If you areinterested in joining our team, please contact your respectiveparish office and leave your name and contact information. Morehands make the work easier.
ARCHBISHOP’S ANNUAL APPEALOur parish and the Archdiocese are ONE. Both need yoursacrificial support. It's never too late to a make a financialcommitment to our AAA. Those donors who share a portion ofwhat they have, are the first ones to benefit from their own senseof gratitude of God. As of July 17th, 443 parishioners fromSaint Mary have donated $127,467.00 to the Archbishop'sAnnual Appeal. To date, $100,365.00 has been paid of thispledged amount. Envelopes can be found in back of church. Think how you may be able to help those less fortunate thanourselves. Why not give today?
REMEMBER YOUR PARISH
Some people wait until the end of summer to put in a ‘catch-up’
envelope for the Sundays they might have been away. The “Way
of Stewardship” is NOT to ‘catch up’ after everything has been
used for vacation but to give from the “first fruits.” Why not
consider “catching up” before you leave for vacation as an act
of gratitude to God for all you have been given.
MEMORIAL WALL
We recently began a Memorial Wall in Church by the Blessed Sacrament Tabernacle. Ten phtographs of thosemost recently buried from Saint Mary will be hung on thewall. Families can provide the undertaker with the photowhich they will scan and email us or a picture can bedropped off at Saint Mary. Only those buried from SaintMary will be displayed on the wall. Kindly pray for thepeaceful repose of their souls and ask the intercession ofour Blessed Mother or light a candle to remember ourdeceased parishioners.
BAPTISMSWe are STILL SEARCHING! If you
are an expectant parent thinking about
your child's baptism, why not consider
this! We are looking for 2 babies
approximately 3 months of age or
younger to be baptized during Mass in
October - exact weekend not yet determined. The babies will be
baptized by full immersion by Father Mike. If interested, call
the Parish Office.
PRAY FOR OUR SICK
Please PRAY in the name of JESUS, the healer, that
the SICK of SAINT MARY PARISH may be
restored to health and all those who ASSIST and
CARE for the sick will be given the STRENGTH to
continue GOD’S good WILL:
Ray Anderson, Margaret Curtin, Gilda Danza,

SIXTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
First Reading: Jeremiah 23:1-6
In this passage, God denounces false leaders who have scattered
his people. He promises that they will be reunited and led by one
who is just and wise.
Second Reading: Ephesians 2:13-18
Paul explains that through Jesus Christ, there is no longer
hostility between Gentile and Jew. Instead, through the Spirit of
Christ, both groups become one body and are equal in the eyes
of God.
Gospel: Mark 6:30-34
The apostles returned after their first mission and told Jesus what
they had done and taught. He told them to rest, but the people
kept coming to them. So they went to find a private place, but the
people learned where they were going and arrived first. Jesus felt
sorry for them and decided to teach them instead of resting.
