New Year Greeting… We would like to wish everyone
happiness, good health, good fortune, and good times together with family and friends. Why don’t we make our slogan for the New Year
“Nothing new, but everything better.” –
Fr. Ruane
Thank You… The responses to our Angel Tree was
very generous, and united with your generosity to the Food Pantry, we feel that as a
Church Family we were able to join John the Baptist in preparing a way for the Lord, by
bringing happiness and joy to several children and families.
Sincere Gratitude … I would like to take this opportunity
to thank the Choir, Lectors, Eucharist Ministers, Mass Servers, those who decorated our
church so beautifully and anybody who helped in any way to prepare for the Birthday Mass,
in honor of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Sincere Gratitude…“I would like to thank our church
family members who remembered me in a special way at Christmas. I cherish your goodness and kindness and pray, God
will Bless all of us in 2011.” Fr. Ruane
R.C.I.A.… We are taking a break until after
Christmas to give everybody a chance to get ready for the
Birthday of Christ. Watch bulletin announcement for next
meeting.
January (1st) First… Because January 1st falls on
a Saturday it is not a Holy Day of Obligation. Never the less it is a wonderful way to
begin the New Year. We will have Mass on New Years Day at 9:00am.
Regular Schedule… We will go back to our regular schedule
this coming weekend with our Saturday Mass at 6:00pm and Sunday at 9:00am.
Calendars… If you have not already picked up one
of our beautiful church calendars, there are still some available.
Choose Life… “In every child which is born and
in every person who lives or dies we see the image of God’s glory. We celebrate this
glory in every human being, a sign of the living God, an icon of Jesus Christ.” [Pope John Paul II, The Gospel of Life]
1. “Every decision you make – every decision – is not a decision about what to do. It’s a decision about
Who You Are. When you see this, when you understand it, everything changes. You begin to
see life in a new way. All events, occurrences, and situations turn into opportunities to
do what you came here to do.” (Neale Donald Walsch, Author of
Conversations with God)
2. “I don’t think of all the
misery but of the beauty that still remains.”
(Anne Frank)
