Scripture Corner: TWENTY-THIRD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
First Reading: Ezekiel 33:7-9 God has appointed the prophet as a watchman over his people. If he fails to give them warning against sin, he will be held responsible.
Second Reading: Romans 13:8-10 In this beautiful letter, Paul says that all command-ments are contained in this: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
Gospel: Matthew 18:15-20 Jesus explains to his disciples how to respond to those who wrong them – with gentleness and practi-cal wisdom. He promises that whenever “two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in their midst.”

In an effort to maintain health and safety for all
involved, there will NOT be a regular in person
opening day as in the past. Masses may be
requested by mail or dropped in the collection box in
the church and will be filled in the order they were
received. Forms can be found on the website or
you may call the rectory if you would to have one
mailed to you. The actual form is not required to
request Masses as long as you send in your full
contact information (name, address, phone

dates/times and your donation of $20 per

September 22nd.
At the suggestion of the Archdiocese, after consulta-
tion with the chairman of our Parish Council, our
Parish Trustees, and a random sampling of parish-
ioners, it has been decided that we will adjust our
Sunday Mass schedule. As a result of the recent
pandemic, the numbers of people coming to Sunday
Mass have dropped greatly. On the whole, our five
Sunday Masses at St. Marys average a total of 180
people. In particular, attendance at the 8:45 am Sun-
day Mass has been about 15 people.
Therefore, starting with the first Sunday in October
(Oct 4th), our Sunday Mass schedule at St. Marys
will be as follows:
Saturday Vigil 5:15 pm
Sunday 7:30 am, 9:00 am, 11:00 am.
Any Mass intentions originally schedule for the 8:45
am Mass will be transferred to the 9:00 am Mass.
Any intentions originally schedule for the 11:30 am
will be transferred to the 11:00 am Mass.
Mass intentions scheduled for the 10 am Mass will
be transferred to an available Mass at St. Marys. We
will attempt to notify all those with 10 am Mass in-
tentions of the new date and time. Please call Jane at
the rectory if you have not received information
about the rescheduled Mass by September 15th.

The exterior of both churches will be washed, have any needed carpentry repairs made, and the exteriors will be painted.

Thank you for all you do, Fr. Duff
September 6, 2020 Month of the Sorrowful Mother
Dear friends on the Lord:
The COVID-19 pandemic concerned many countries and in several of them, preventative measures precluded the normal community celebration of Holy Week. The Christian communities in the Holy Land, also exposed to the risk of contagion and living in contexts already full of serious sufferings, benefit every year from the generosity of the faithful from all over the world. This solidarity enables them to continue their evangelical presence, in addition to maintaining schools and charitable structures that assist all citizens with healthcare, education, and peaceful coexistence, attending above all to the weakest and poorest.
For this reason, Pope Francie has approved the proposal that the Pontifical Good Friday Collection for the Holy Land, for the year 2020, take place on Sunday, September 13, near the feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross.
The celebration that commemorates the discovery of the Relics of the Cross by St. Helena also marks a new beginning of public worship in Jerusalem, with the construction of the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre. May it be a sign of hope and salvation after the pas-sion to which many peoples are now associated, as well as solidarity with those who continue to live the Gospel of Jesus on the Land where “it all began”’
This offering allows God’s people to inhabit the Holy Places and in doing so bears witness to the Resur-rection of Christ. Your support helps the Franciscan friars to preserve the sacred shrines. I am asking you once again to be as generous as your means allow.
With prayerful best wishes, I am,
Devotedly yours in Christ, Archbishop of New York
