THE 2017 ANNUAL CATHOLIC APPEAL Live In Faith, Give In Love

If you did not get a commitment envelope last weekend, please pick one up today for this year’s Annual Catholic Appeal. I am encouraging everyone to take part in this program, especially at this time because St. Augustine Church can benefit significantly from your support and serve literally hundreds in need through our vast network of programs and services. Please join me in making this a successful appeal by making your pledge today. Our goal this year is $37,584.00. Please help us reach our goal by making a pledge. Thank you for your consideration.

H.O.P.E. DINNER Are you available to help with the HOPE dinner on Sunday, May 21? The dinners serve home-cooked meals to people affected by HIV/AIDS, on the third Sunday of every month. Volunteers are always needed to either help set-up or to prepare food. If interested, please contact Wendy, Douglas-Nathai at 718-450-0575. The Sacrament of Confirmation for Adults… will be celebrated here on Pentecost Sunday, June 4th at the 12 noon Mass, for adults who are already baptized and have received their First Communion. Those planning to marry in the church and are not confirmed should prepare now. There will be 4 hours of instruction. For more information on class dates see future bulletins. Please call Fr. Ahern to register. You will need to bring a copy of your baptismal certificate or begin the process of obtaining one. Young adults who are confirmed but are returning to the church or desire an update are welcome as well since this program will cover the major areas of Catholic faith, practice, and spirituality.

Bereavement Group The death of a loved one is a very difficult period in one’s life. The grief process is a painful journey that changes our lives forever. Grief is a natural response to loss and in order for grief resolution to be attained we must work through our loss. The Fall Bereavement group will meet every 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m., in the recto-ry. Please mark your calendar. Any questions? Please call Cleveland Linder at 718-743-4600.

Motherhood By Helen Steiner Rice

The dearest gifts that haven holds, The very finest, too, Were made into one pattern That was perfect, sweet, and true; The Angels smiled, well-pleased, and said: “Compared to all the others, This pattern is so wonderful Let’s use it just for Mothers!” And through the years, a Mother Has been all that’ss sweet and good For there’s one bit of God and love, In all true Motherhood.

Happy Mother’s Day!
