May 12th, 2019—Fourth Sunday of Easter
Grateful, as a parish, for being
under the protecting wing of
Archangel Raphael through the years.
FROM THE PASTOR… Dear Parishioners, Sobering thought for Mothers Day, courtesy of the New York Times this past week:
―Mothers still shoulder 65 percent of child-care work. All this comes at a cost to women’s well-being, as mothers forgo leisure time, pro- fessional ambitions and sleep.‖ And from Pope Francis:
Blessings in abundance to all who exercise the family ministry we honor this day!
-Father Jerry Jecewiz
“A mother defends herself with a heart filled with love before doing so
with words. I wonder whether there is any love for the church in the
hearts of those who pay so much attention to the scandals.”
Sister Ave Clark, O.P. presents…
