Dear Friends,
We wish all our boys and girls a good school year filled with learning, personal growth, and good friendship. May our young people going away to college be blessed in their new adventures. And, we offer a special "welcome back" to our St. Joseph School students and teachers, including our new principal, Dr. Robert Murphy.
Religious education classes and activities will resume this month in each parish. Parents, please register your child/children as soon as possible. Please contact one of our Religious Ed Coordinators, Doreen Breen (781-396-0423, [email protected]) or Mea Mustone (781-396-3400, [email protected]).
Please continue to pray for Father Ed Doughty, who has taken a health leave and resigned as pastor of our collaborative parishes, which he announced at the Masses on August 22. He regrets that he cannot continue here as pastor, but his first priority now is recovering his health. To send Father Ed a thank-you card or note, please send it to either rectory and we will forward your correspondence.
We look back with gratitude at the beautiful summer that is quickly coming to a close. May this new school year be a time for new resolutions, new hope, and a renewed trust in our Lord Jesus who continues to work in our lives. For some extra inspiration, pay attention to the news reports about Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who will be canonized a saint this Sunday, September 4.

Good news.Good works.Good faith.
Boston Priests. There for us.
At Saint Stephen Parish in Framingham, the lively multicultural community with a strong Hispanic presence has become an extension of Fr. Francisco “Paco” Anzoategui’s family. “We may speak di�erent languages and have di�erent traditions, but we are not two separate communities,” said Fr. Paco. “We are one family of believers with the same faith, and we are united in a wonderful bond that we call our spiritual family.”
To help ensure a continuum of care for Fr. Paco and all our devoted priests who faithfully serve our Catholic family please support the special collection on September 17-18.
To see Fr. Paco’s full video story, visit clergytrust.org.
