“You did it for Me,” says the Lord Support the 2019 House of Charity-Bishop’s Annual Appeal

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ STEWARDSHIP
Stewardship Standards: “For behold, some are last who will be first and some are first who will be last.” LUKE 13:30 Our standards in society are different from God’s standards. We often rank people by what they have, how powerful they are, or how successful they are. Jesus reminds us that God will not judge us by the same earthly standards. When God asks you, “what have you done with the gifts I have given you?” Will Stewardship be your response?

THIS IS OUR FAITH The SACRED that surrounds us
Credence Table
Located in the sanctuary, the credence table is a small table that holds all the sacred vessels needed for the celebration of the Eucharist. The
vessels are moved to the altar at the appropriate time. These vessels are a clear indicator of the Christian Mass. The credence table helps to offer a
Clear distinction between the Liturgy of the Word and the Liturgy of the Eucharist.
The items on this table are to be treasured, and each one serves a beautiful and practical purpose.

A grief support group, will resume its Fall session on Thursday,

is grieving/mourning the loss of a loved one, whether recent or not. The support group runs for approximately 10-12 weeks on consecutive
Thursday nights. The cost of the program is free, and one need not be catholic to attend. Having the opportunity to share one’s grief, mourning, thoughts, tears, fears, and yes, even laughter with others who are going

beneficial to them. Space is limited to 10 people. To register or for more information, kindly call Ellen at 856-825-8195 or

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ WE NEED YOUR FAITH, WE NEED YOUR HELP
Catechetical Sunday is September 15, 2019. This is the day that the whole Church in the US celebrates the ministry & gift of Catechesis. The theme this year is “Stay With Us.” Throughout the years we have noticed that young adults have lost their affiliation to the faith. This has happened
for several reasons, one of which is that young people reach their adulthood without having had a genuine encounter with God & their faith. The ministry of Catechesis is more than just a training in doctrine, it is a
time for our children to experience their faith & have a meaningful encounter with God. This year we are focusing our formation programs on
providing moments of encounter. This requires the help & dedication of our parish members. Encounters happen when we share our own faith experience & love for God. Please consider sharing your time with our
young people. We need catechists for Monday nights from 6pm -7:30pm at Bishop Schad School, Tuesday nights from 5pm-6:30pm at St. Mary
School, Sunday mornings from 10:15am-12pm at Divine Mercy Parish & 12 Thursday a month at Sacred Heart School We are also in need of
classroom aides & hall monitors. You may email [email protected] or [email protected] for
information. You can also call your rectory & they can put you in touch with a catechetical leader. Thank you in advance for your consideration &
your support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
