During the month of May, our Altar & Rosary Society will be honoring our Holy Mother by leading parishioners in the rosary starting a half hour before each weekend Mass -- Saturday evening at 4:45 pm; 8:30 am before the 9 am Mass; and 10:30am before the 11am Mass. Please come join us as we honor our Blessed Mother and answer the invitation of Bishop Schlert to make this year a special Marian Year of Grace.
If you wish to leave flowers for the Blessed Mother, you may do so at either the statue by the altar or the statue outside of the children's room (facing the parking lot).
Friday, May 15th, is the 50th anniversary of
Father Buckley's ordination!
What a wonderful occasion to celebrate the blessings of fifty years of generous service. Thank you, Fr. Buckley, for your holy devotion to the Lord and to His Church! With deepest gratitude to God, we honor and celebrate 50 years of your faithful and devoted priesthood. For five decades, you have been a shepherd to the flock, a voice of wisdom and truth, a comforting presence in times of need, and a faithful servant of Christ’s mission. Through every Mass celebrated, every soul counseled, every prayer lifted, and every moment of quiet faithfulness, you have been a living reflection of God’s love and grace. As you mark this Golden Jubilee, may your heart be filled with peace, your spirit renewed in joy, and your future blessed with continued purpose.
“Well done, good and faithful servant.” -Matthew 25:21
The Allentown Diocese is consecrating itself to the Holy Eucharist for its 65th Anniversary. As part of this celebration, starting on May 5, all parishes are invited to participate by following the daily prayer and reflection provided in Dynamic Catholic's 33 Days to Eucharistic Glory. At the end of this 33-day program, each Parish will say a consecration prayer to the Holy Eucharist on June 7, the feast of Corpus Christi.
Pick up your free copy of 33 Days to Eucharistic Glory this weekend in the church. This journey can be done individually, as a family, or with a group.
Would you like to meet for reflection and discussion in a small group? If so, please join us for a guided discussion in the church meeting room every Monday evening from 7-8 pm, beginning on May 11 and continuing until June 8. Bring your book!
