September 11th Remembrance – 23rd Anniversary

Events, Parish Life, PNCC /

On Wednesday, September 11th our parish offered prayers for the victims of 9/11/2001 on the 23rd anniversary of the terrorist attacks in New York, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. We also remembered the Solemnity of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary which occurred on September 8th reflecting on the role of Holy Mary our Spiritual Mother praying with her for peace in our country and in the world. We prayed in the presence of the Most Blessed Sacrament.

Two dozen of attendees came for  the service followed by a reception in the parish hall. The next service will be held on Wednesday, October 16th at 7 pm.
All are welcome to attend.

Congratulations to the oldest couple at Holy Cross

Parish Life /

On May 27, 2009 George and Gene Kapchonick will be celebrating their 71st wedding anniversary. They are lifelong parishioners, having been married at Sts. Peter and Paul PNCC in Passaic and transferring to Holy Cross, first in Paterson then Woodland Park (formerly West Paterson). Their marriage is blessed with their daughter Alice.

When the Holy Cross Church in Woodland Park was being built George was at the site daily and was Fr. John Slysz’s right hand man. He was a board member for years and active in the many activities and fund raisers.

Gene was involved in the ANS (altar guild) and helped maintain the altar linens. For years she grew a garden of flowers just for the church. Her prize gladiolas adorned the altar for many years. She was also involved in many fund raisers.

While they are no longer able to attend the church due to the distance, they live in Tom’s River, NJ, Father Joseph visits them on holidays and special occasions such as their 70th Anniversary of marriage.

Congratulations to George and Gene and their daughter Alice. Sto Lat! George and Gene.
