Dates to Remember
Religious Education Registration for the 2013-2014 school year has begun. Information and forms have been given to the children. Forms are also available on our website. Please register as soon as possible, so that we can order books.
Are you a registered parishioner? Occasionally there is a misunder-standing about Parish Registration; every family should be properly regis-tered by filling out a Parish Census Form. If you do not receive collection envelopes in the mail, chances are,
you are not “officially” registered. Forms are available at the rectory, or you can get started by filling out the form on page 5 of this publication and dropping it in the collec-tion basket. It’s that easy! All personal information is al-ways kept confidential.
Archbishop’s Annual Appeal --- Making a Difference Last month, in the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Newark, Archbishop Myers ordained eight men to the Priest-hood and eleven men as transitional Deacons for service to the Church of Newark. Transitional deacons serve in parish-es for one year before they are ordained to the priesthood. While many dioceses in the United States have no candi-dates for the priesthood and clergy shortages are wide-spread, the Archdiocese of Newark is blessed with several men each year who are willing to answer God’s call to serve, insuring that the Church will be present for future genera-tions. The seminary training and formation of our new priests is funded primarily by the Archbishop’s Annual Appeal. Thank you for your support of the Archbishop’s Annual Ap-peal which makes educating our future priests a reality!
RCIA: Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults RCIA is a process of faith formation for people who may wish to become a member of the Catholic Faith Community. Some people may not have any religious affiliation and may not have been baptized. This may be for you! Some people may have been baptized in another religion or faith tradition but wish to become Catho-lic. This may be for you! Some people may already be Catholic through Baptism but have never received the Sacraments of Holy Eucharist and/or Confirmation and now want to do so. This may be for you! For more information, please contact Fr. Kevin or fill out the form below and drop in the mail or collection. Name ____________________________________ Address __________________________________ _________________________________________ Telephone number _________________________ e-mail ___________________________________ I am a Catholic but never received Holy Eucharist ____ I am a Catholic but never received Confirmation ____ I am from another religion but wish to become Catholic ___ I have never been Baptized ____ I wish to receive more information ____

Upon entering the little country store, the
stranger noticed a sign saying "DANGER!
BEWARE OF DOG!" posted on the glass
door. Inside he noticed a harmless old hound
dog asleep on the floor beside the cash regis-
ter. He asked the store manager, "Is THAT
the dog folks are supposed to beware of?"
"Yep, that's him," he replied.
The stranger couldn't help but be amused. "That certainly
doesn't look like a dangerous dog to me. Why in the world
would you post that sign?"
"Because," the owner replied, "before I posted that sign, people
kept tripping over him."
Get Involved... Adult Handicraft Our craft ladies are working on several projects. They will continue to make afghans for our Veterans, and “hug-a-bear” dolls for pediatric patients in local hospitals. Their newest project is crocheting hats for children struggling with cancer. The ladies are in need of light colored yarn. If you wish to donate yarn, please leave it with an usher after masses or drop off at the Rectory during regular business hours. The ladies will be crafting on Monday, August 5 at 10 a.m. They will meet every Monday through the summer months. New members are al-ways welcome. There will be no meeting on August 26.
Knights of Columbus The next K of C meeting is on Tuesday, August 13 at 8 p.m. To join, call Fred, (973) 667-7663 or email Michael at [email protected].
Women’s Auxiliary The ladies are taking a well deserved break during the summer months. Meetings will resume on Monday, September 9 at 1 p.m. If you’re interested in joining, call Linda, (973) 661-0090.
Parish Support Groups YANA (You Are Not Alone) Our Parish Bereavement Support Group will meet on Wednesday, August 7 from 7:30 p.m.-9 p.m. in the Par-ish Hall. Our Support Group is open to anyone (parishioner or non-parishioner) who has suffered the loss of a friend, relative or a loved one. There is no charge and reservations are not required. All you need is an open mind and an open heart. Let us try to help you through this time of grief. Support Group for Those Who are Separated or Divorced In September, OLMC is starting a 10-session program, for those who are separated, recently divorced or going through the process of divorce. Our mission is first, to support emotionally and spiritually those who have suf-fered the loss of the marital relationship, and second, to offer a caring, compassionate and confidential environ-ment for the sharing of experiences. The group size is limited and advance registration is required - no walk-ins. Please call the Rectory during regular business hours to register. All sessions will be held on Monday evenings from 7:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the Parish Hall. All calls are confidential and there is no fee in order to attend.
Summer Fun in Atlantic City The Women’s Auxiliary is hosting another fun-filled bus ride to the Showboat Casino in Atlantic City on Wednes-day, August 21. The fare is $25. In return guests will re-ceive a $25 voucher from the casino. The bus will depart from the Church on Prospect St. at 9 a.m. Please park in the Church lot. For reservations, call Dottie at (973) 759-3189.
The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary The Feast of the Assumption is cele-brated every year on August 15. It commemorates the death of the ever-Virgin Mary and her bodily assumption into Heaven. The mass schedule is as follows: Wednesday, August 14: 7 p.m. Vigil, Thursday, August 15: 7
a.m., 8 a.m., and 12 noon. This Feast Day is a Holy Day of Obligation.
Stewardship We have an obligation to share with others, that which God has given us. Share your time, and talents. Men and women can become involved in the life of our Parish by becoming an Altar Server, Catechist, Choir Member, Extraordinary Minister of the Eucharist, Lector, and/or Usher. By taking an active role in the liturgical life, and service of the Parish, you can have a wonderful experi-ence. We are especially in need of men and women to volunteer their time as Lectors and Eucharistic Minis-ters. Feel free to fill out the form on page 5 and drop it in the collection basket or call the Rectory.
If you want to touch the past, touch a rock. If you want
to touch the present, touch a flower. If you want to
touch the future, touch a life. ~Author Unknown
