A Note from Fr. Quealy

Some pearls of wisdom from Abraham Lincoln:

“My great concern is not whether you have failed,

but whether you are content with your failure.”

“I do not think much of a person who is not wiser

today than he was yesterday.”

God Bless,

Fr. Quealy

Remember you must be a registered parishioner of

O.L.S. to enroll your child/children in our Religious

Before registering, please discuss with your family

the importance of placing Religious Education and

attendance of Holy Mass as a priority on Sunday

mornings.

Due to the increasing size of our program our classes

will not exceed 25 children. We will NOT have a

Kindergarten class this coming year due to the need

for additional classrooms for our upper grades.

Session 2 will begin at 10:15am and end at 11:35am.

Religious Ed Teachers & Assistants Needed

Will you help our children to learn and live their

faith? Become a Religious Education teacher

(catechist) and use the talents God has given you to

help teach the tenets of our faith. Please contact Jen

– St. Josemaria Escriva

Next week is Augusts’

Brown Bag Sunday.

Today for your

convenience we are again

providing brown paper

bags at all three entrances

to the church. Each bag

will have a suggested

shopping list attached. All

food donations should be non-perishable, nothing should

be in glass containers and no expired items should be

included. For those wishing to make a financial

donation, checks should be made payable to Feeding

Westchester and placed in the basket at the altar next

week or given to the volunteer in the community room.

Last month you donated 298 pounds of food and $1,180.

Brown Bag Sunday started at O.L.S. in April of 2011 and

since then you have donated over 43,900 pounds of food

and $112,459. Every $1 collected buys $4 to $7 worth of

food. The need is great - but so is the generosity of our

parishioners. May God Bless you.

A PERSPECTIVE ON THE SUNDAY READINGS

HIS WORD TODAY by Rev. William J. Reilly

Twentieth Sunday in Ordinary Time - Aug. 18, 2019

“Jeremiah ought to be put to death: he is demoralizing the

soldiers that are left in the city, and all the people, by

speaking such things to them; he is not interested in the

welfare of the people, but in their ruin….let us rid

ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us and

persevere in running the race that lies before us while

keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the leader and perfecter

of faith.”

Jeremiah, the prophet, spoke for God. The role of the

prophet is to disturb the comfortable and calm the

disturbed. Unlike our current political promises, he was

calling people back to the Lord. It is not easy to keep our

eyes fixed on Jesus, as our culture of selfishness, greed,

and consumerism, are the cause of detours and

distraction, of sadness and division.

As a missionary disciple, I am counter cultural, seeking

to walk with others in pursuit of the values of the gospel.

In this way I work for the well being of all. Where are

your eyes and efforts directed?
