NY/NJ Seniorate Adoration Society Convention

The delegates came from SS. Peter and Paul Parish in Passaic with their Pastor, Very Rev. Stanley Skrzypek, Holy Name of Jesus, Passaic, NJ with Rev. Marian Tarnowski, delegates from Transfiguration of Our Lord Parish in Wallington, NJ and the host members of our parish ANS with Fr. Joseph.

Joseph led the service and in his sermon he spoke about the importance of the Holy Eucharist which we have the privilege to venerate and receive in the Holy Communion. Altar server was Gabriela Rotsaert.
The meeting continued in the parish hall with reports from ANS activities in different parishes, election of officers for year 2016-2017, Oath of the new members, prayers for the deceased members and the meeting was concluded with dinner and refreshments.
Before the election of officers, the Vice-President Alice Kriskewic asked to be replaced by the new officer. We thanked Alice for many years of her dedication and service. We thanked also Mrs. Stella Zak who recently stepped down from her 15 years of service as the recording secretary.

God bless David and Jessica
We congratulate and pray for David Wei-Ying Yip and Jessica Natalie Gesualdi who received the Sacrament of Matrimony on Saturday, August 20th. Arthur Yip was the Best Man; Jennifer Gesualdi was the Maid of Honor. We also congratulate, parents, family members, relatives and friends.
Marriage is a sacrament which makes a Christian man and woman – husband and wife, gives them the grace to be faithful to each other and to bring up their children in love and devotion to God. The sacrament of Marriage is the image of the unconditional love of Jesus toward his Church. He showed us His love till the end. His love included compassion and forgiveness. Marriage is a package, first of a great happiness, support, understanding, but also time and moments of overlooking others differences and consequently moments of understanding and forgiveness.
A special thank you to the lectors who read the Holy Scriptures and our organist, Neil Estasnislao, who beautified the liturgy.
