Announcements:
Confessions will be heard on Sunday mornings from 8:45-9:15am and by appointment. All faithful are encouraged to come to the Sacrament every 8 weeks, on average, to help maintain spiritual health. This is especially for those who frequently “with Faith and with Love come forward” to receive the Body and Blood of Christ.
In case of emergency, if Father cannot be reached at the church or at the rectory, his cell phone number is 914-844-9057.
There will be a brief meeting of the Sunday School Faculty during the Coffee Social this morning. This is to give Father an update on classes.
A reminder to all parents: Sunday School Classes will begin on Sunday 9 September. Classes begin at 9:00am. Please make sure that your child(ren) are in class on time.
Any information for the bulletin should be given to Father by Thursday evening. Call the rectory, hand in a note or email.
