niedziela 2 listopad 2014 – Niedziela-Dzień Zaduszny
W domu Ojca mego jest mieszkań wiele ... Jezus nie kryje przed nami ani konieczności swego własnego "odejścia", swojej własnej śmierci, ani konieczności naszego odejścia, śmierci każdego z nas. Nie mówi nam "nie bój się nie umrzesz". Ale mówiąc o konieczności śmierci pokazuje nam jednocześnie drogę jaką powinniśmy kroczyć, aby dotrzeć do domu Ojca i pokazuje nam ostateczny cel naszej wędrówki. Jego słowa: "Ja jestem Drogą, Prawdą i Życiem" można także zrozumieć w następujący sposób: "Ja jestem prawdziwą droga życia", albo "Ja jestem drogą w prawdzie do Życia". Naszym zadaniem jest do tego Życia Wiecznego dotrzeć. W domu Ojca czeka nas prawdziwe życie, czeka nas Życie Wieczne, czeka nas Ten, z Którego rąk wyszliśmy, nasz Ojciec i nasz Zbawiciel i cała rzesza przyjaciół. Nie zmarnujmy tego zaproszenia ...Znamy drogę, znamy cel ... czemu mielibyśmy przez własną głupotę dotrzeć tam, gdzie nikt na nas nie czeka ?

DIVINE MERCY HEALING MASS
Sunday, November 9, 2 PM
Holy Family Chapel
MASS OF REMEMBRANCE We are celebrating a Mass of Remembrance for
all of those who have died this past year. The
Mass will be at 10:30 AM in Holy Family
Chapel on Saturday November 8. Light
refreshments will follow.
MASS INTENTIONS FOR 2015
Requests for Mass intentions for 2015 will take
place during this entire month of November.
Because of the large number of requests for
intentions, we will still keep the same
limitations that we had last year.
All intentions are for deceased individuals
announced by their first and last name. Since
the parish now automatically schedules a
‘month’s mind’ and anniversary intention for
those who have recently died, we will send any
extra intentions that come in for that deceased
person to the missions. Any other intention
requests will be collected during the month of
November and then scheduled as best as we
can, casting lots if there are conflicts. It is not a
first-come, first-served policy. Everyone is
limited to two Masses. You may include more
than one person for a particular Mass. Forms for
your Mass requests are available at the rectory.
during this month.
Opportunities for additional memorials will be
the Mothers Day Novena intentions; the Fathers
Day Novena intentions; and the All Souls
intentions. Also, the vigil and sanctuary lights,
and the bread and wine offerings may be
memorialized. Also, Mass intentions for the
deceased or for other intentions may be sent to
the missions.

ATTENTION LECTORS Workbooks are now available for the upcoming

the new liturgical year.
ALTAR SERVERS NEEDED Do you want to know a sure fire way to assist
your children in following the Mass more
closely or helping them to develop a deeper
relationship with Christ? Perhaps the answer is
by your saying yes. If you are already going to
Mass, it doesn’t take all that much more effort
to attend Mass as an altar server but the benefits
are huge. It is as easy as coming to your first
Altar server training session. There are six one
hour sessions and by Christmas we hope to
have your children prepared to serve at the table
of the Lord. You will be able to set your own
schedule for serving (it can be as often as you
like or only once a month at a particular Mass
time on a given Sunday.) We all are very busy
but this is a simple way to help our children
learn and grow in their faith. The next training
session is Thursday evening November 6th at 6
PM at Holy Family, or Saturday morning
November 8th at 12:30 PM at St. Mary of the
Lake. If you have questions please call the
rectory 732-363-0139.
ATTENTION SNOW BIRDS!
Please notify the rectory of the dates you will be
away for the winter season. We will be happy to
suspend your envelopes until your return in the
spring!

RESPECT LIFE
SPIRITUAL ADOPTION
Our spiritually adopted baby is almost 7 months
old. The baby really fills out over these next
few weeks storing fat on the body and weighing
4-4½ lbs. The bones are fully developed but are
still soft and pliable. Some rhythmic breathing
movements are occurring.
We continue to pray for the well-being and safe
delivery of the baby.
CEMETERY NEWS
Our “clean-up” in the cemetery and
mausoleums is a work in progress. We
encourage you to keep your space tidy and
clean. Overgrown shrubs that are obscuring the
view of the headstone are being removed. If
you’re not sure what the regulations are in your
area, please call the office, 732-363-8262, and
we’ll be happy to provide you with the
regulations.
Effective immediately, no live plants are
permitted in any of the mausoleums. The
stagnant water is drawing bugs. Artificial
flowers are still permitted.
Look for more information in the mausoleums
of a photo program of your personal photo to be
affixed to the crypt/niche front of your loved
one.
INTERFAITH HOSPITALITY
NETWORK
On behalf of our Guests from IHN, I would like
to thank you for the tremendous outpouring of
your physical help, your time, and your
financial support during our Host Week. During
this week we housed 4 families which included
4 moms, 2 dads and 7 children.
On October 19, we had over 20 volunteers who
helped transform Guild Hall into a home for our
guests. (This was exciting just to watch.) Our
families had hectic schedules but at dinner time
they were able to sit down with their children
www.smlparish.net 732 363-0139 8
and enjoy fabulous home cooked meals and
desserts that were prepared by our parishioners.
(They were especially happy to have leftovers
for lunch the next day to take to work.) When
you heard that we were having such a large
group, many of you stopped by and dropped off
extra supplies for the children or added an extra
course for their dinners. This was so much
appreciated by our guests. Thank you for
making our Interfaith Hospitality Guests so
comfortable and safe.
Many of you shared your time by conversing
with our guests through hosting and sleeping
over, thank you! Thank you to the man and
women who helped clean up at 7 am Sunday
morning . Thank you also to those of you who
took the laundry, which really helps out when
our host week is over. There were many of you,
who did not have the time during this week, but
you offered assistance by dropping off
donations and Shop Rite Gift Cards, thank you.
Without each one of you, we would not be able
to help the families of Interfaith Hospitality
Network. All of you helped make this week’s
hosting so much easier because we shared the
work. One more thank you goes out to our
Parish Priests, who were extremely supportive.
Our next guests from Interfaith Hospitality
Network will arrive on Sunday, January 11, and
will stay until Sunday, January 18. We are
always looking for new volunteers to help;
make it a family evening, sleepover or just
come over and help set up or break down.
Thank you for making this ministry a part of
our Parish. For more information please call:
Pat Rainer 732-300-8288 or e-mail
VOCATION AWARENESS WEEK
Did you know that in our country, compared to
50 years ago, there are 20,000 fewer priests and
129,000 fewer religious sisters? At the same
time, the Catholic population has continued to
grow steadily. Many factors have contributed to
the decline: growing secularism a lengthened
period of adolescence, attitudes about celibacy,
etc. During Vocation Awareness week, please
pray that young people in today’s society will
hear and respond to God’s call. And do your
part to encourage them to consider the
priesthood and religious life.

FAITHFUL CITIZENSHIP
All are encouraged to read and prayerfully
reflect on the non-partisan document the U.S.
Bishops put out called: Forming Consciences
for Faithful Citizenship: A Call to Political
Responsibility which provides a framework for
Catholics in the United States to apply their
faith and Church teachings to political issues.
And then, most importantly, be actively
engaged in the democratic process, not only by
voting in the upcoming election, but through all
the means of political activism which we as
citizens have a right – and a duty – to perform.
Their document can be found online at:
www.tinyurl.com/USBcitizenship
Reminder – November 4
This is an honor and privilege we should not take for granted!
