God's Abundance Surrounds Us

7/26/2015

0 Comments

 
Hello, friends:

It seems that the summer is coming to end, or at least, the break, before the academic semester starts again, in just a few short weeks. I hope that the summer break has been good, as well as an opportunity to rest and reflect on the many gifts God has given us. This weekend the scripture readings invite us to reflect on God's abundance that surrounds us; in our particular family as well as our parish faith family. If you'd like to take a "homework assignment" for this week re-read the Gospel (John 6:1-15). In the midst of this abundance though we sometimes wonder if we will have enough and if we are, in fact, equipped to share the "good news." All we have to do is look at the biblical characters, particularly the apostles, who were closest to Jesus. They all came to understand that they were totally dependent on Jesus for their ministry. So are we! I'd invite us to consider, identify and name just a few of the things that we are grateful for and then to share this good news with others!

Peace,
Fr. Ray

Mass for Children & Families with Special Needs

7/12/2015

0 Comments

 
Hello, friends: 

A couple of months ago, after prayer and reflection, and some preparation, we began a mass for children with special needs. We’re going into our third month; the next mass will be celebrated next Saturday, July 18, at 10 a.m. If you know of any person who might enjoy or benefit from this celebration, please invite them and if you’re interested in helping, in any way, please call the office. I’d like to thank those who are already helping. 

Members of the Parish Finance Council are preparing to share important information of the fiscal year 2015/16 the last weekend of July. Should you have any questions or concerns they can be directed to any of the members of the council or to me. 

Blessings, 
Fr. Ray

Thanks for Your Feedback!

Hello, friends: 

Special thanks to the members of the Visioning committee for their leadership and for their outreach, especially at the weekend masses. Initial numbers of the ballots are very good and we are pleased with the number of folks who took the time to offer their comments and feedback. We hope that the presentation offered clarification and we hope to be able to offer a more substantial analysis in the next couple of weeks. If you were not present at the weekend masses and are interested in filling out a ballot or would like more information on the process please do not hesitate to contact any of the members of the Visioning committee or you can call me at the parish office. You can also vote online at stalbertnewmancenter.org The deadline for submitting a ballot is Friday, July 10, 2015. 

You’ll be happy to know the report from CARA (Center of Applied Research in the Apostolate) with results from the parish survey we did a few months ago is on its way. I took a very quick glance at the digital report and once the Parish Pastoral Council decides how to best share this information, I’ll offer those details in the very near future! 

Happy Independence Day! 
Fr. Ray
