Vocation reflections

In today’s gospel Jesus sees a vast crowd. “He pitied them, for they were like sheep without a shepherd; and began to teach them at great length.” Is your heart moved with compassion and mercy for God’s people? Do you want to make a difference? How about becoming a priest, deacon, religious sister or brother?

If so, please contact the Vocations Office at 973-497-4365 or by e-mail at platebri@rcan.org or visit our website at www.rcan.org.

It is an hour of prayer for the priests, DIVINE MERCY and religious men and women of the church. Prayers are also said for an increase of vocations to the priesthood and religious life. Pray for our priests and for all religious - help guide them through your prayers.

How Sweet It Was!

Did you visit the Candy Booth at last year’s Festival? Jackie O and the “Candy Booth Crew” are planning an even bigger and sweeter collection of your favorite treats for Festival 2003. However, in order to make it as successful as last year, we are once again asking for monetary donations.

Last year, all of the contributions towards the Candy Booth were clear profit because many of you had made generous donations. If you can help again, please leave donations at the Rectory marked “Candy Booth”-Attn: Jackie O.

Thank you...and don’t forget to stop by the ‘Sweetest Booth at the Festival 2003’.
