We thank the Prime Bishop for his celebration of Mass, preaching the Word of God and administering the Sacrament of Confirmation. We congratulate our new confirmands, their sponsors, family members and friends. I also thank Deacon Mark and Deacon Bill for helping me in preparing our students for this important sacrament.
The Sacrament of Confirmation is the sacrament through which we receive gifts of the Holy Spirit to make us soldiers of Christ, ready to profess our faith in word and deed. There are seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, wisdom, understanding, knowledge, counsel, strength, godliness and fear of the Lord. Confirmation imprints on our souls that sacramental character which gives us the strength needed to profess and defend our Christian faith. (Catechism PNCC)
The New confirmands were invited to participate in different ministries in our parish such as lectors, substitute teachers in our School of Christian Living, members of Adoration Society and other groups. God bless you all.
At 11 AM Holy Mass today, November 9th, the Sacrament of Confirmation will bw administered by Prime Bishop Anthony Mikovsky. Our Candidates for Confirmation are: Jazlyn Batista, Jaylin Batista, Roselyne Caceres, Sebastian Gomez, and Sophia Vogel.
After Holy Mass we will gather for a luncheon with Prime Bishop. Tickets are required.
The menu includes: Pepper Steak, Salmon, Pierogies (With Buffalo Chicken and Potatoes & Cheese), Lasagna, Rice and Vegetables, and Chicken Tenders (for children).
With Grateful Appreciation to our Organist, Neil Estanislao, For his seventeen years of service at our parish.

With agreement of the Parish Committee we have hired Brian Borowski as our new organist beginning on Sunday, November 2nd. Jessica Muccilli continues to serve in our parish as a substitute organist. We are grateful for her service and dedication.
We are so thankful that our parish continues to have organists to play music, which is a very important part of the liturgy of the Church.
