INCREASED OFFERTORY PROGRAM
This week you will receive a brochure detailing the Increased Offertory Program St. Barbara Parish will be participating in over the next few weeks. This informative brochure is intended to
communicate how we, as a parish, want to advance our mission and how we are serving God’s people in our community. Commitment Weekend for this program is next weekend, October
6th & 7th. We encourage all parishioners to spend time in prayer and discussion with your family reflecting on how you are able to help us. We look forward to seeing all of our parishioners at
Mass next weekend for this important Commitment Weekend. If you have any questions regarding the Increased Offertory Program, please feel free to contact the parish office.

UPCOMING EVENTS IN THE NORTH REGION
We are all living through such difficult times in our Church and it is confusing where to turn to for solid an-swers and for any idea what each of us can do. The North Region Office is offering occasions where our voices
and our prayers can be heard.
1. On Tuesday, October 16 at 7:00pm Saint Theresa Parish, 63 Winter Street, North Reading, will be holding a Rosary for Healing and Protection to pray for victims of abuse including those abused by clergy. This event had been scheduled with the Archdiocesan Office of Pastoral Support & Child Protection prior to the latest revelations. Bishop O’Connell cannot think of a better way to react to the crisis in our Church than to come and pray with those who have been victimized. Stand with the victims and show our support by at-tending this event. What a powerful statement we could make if this becomes an event that draws a lot of people. It is humbling that those who have been hurt by priests will come and pray with us. Surely many of you can make this a priority to come.

Meet Father Donohoe-“I am with you; wherever you are, wherever you go, I am with you.”Father Stephen Donohoe embraced a vocation to serve as a priest of the Archdiocese of Boston. As a young man, he felt the first signs of God’s presence in the Holy Eucharist; that force would become what he describes today as “the bedrock of his priesthood.”
After ordination, Father Donohoe became a military chaplain. During deployment, he provided for the spiritual needs of men and women facing combat. He never abandoned those entrusted to his care and stood by them at every point. Father Donohoe continues this steadfast ministry today in the parishes of the Archdiocese. He says “a great joy of ministry is to see the grace of God enlighten the lives of other people. If we bring people to the Lord, He’ll do everything.”
To help ensure priests like Father Donohoe are cared for as they live out their vocation, please support the special collection on September 15-16.
