LABOR DAY PRAYER
On this weekend, when we rest from our usual labors, loving Father, we pray for all who shoulder the tasks of human labor—in the marketplace, in factories and offices, in the professions, and in family living.
We thank you, Lord, for the gift and opportunity of work; may our efforts always be pure of heart, for the good of others and the glory of your name.
We lift up to you all who long for just employment and those who work to defend the rights and needs of workers everywhere.
Amen.
Today's Gospel
Gospel: Mark 7:31-37
Some people brought a deaf man who could not speak to Jesus and begged Him to lay his hand on the man. Jesus opened the man’s ears and cured his speech impediment. He ordered the people not to tell anyone, but they were too amazed to keep this to themselves.
PRAYER AT THE BEGINNING OF A NEW SCHOOL YEAR
Gracious and loving God, we ask you to send your Holy Spirit upon our parish at the beginning of a new school year to fill us with love. Make us instruments of your love to everyone that we encounter at home, at work, in our neighborhoods, and in our parish community.
Work through us so that we can bring your truth to those who are searching for you.
Help us to grow in gratitude so that we can recognize and thank you for all the good things you have given us.
Instill in us a deep sense of generosity so that we are willing to share our gifts, our talents, our time, and our financial recourses.
Deepen our desire to follow your will and to do all things for your honor and glory. We ask this through Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior.
Amen.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
The Parish Religious Education Program is in need of catechists for the 2021-2022 school year. Sharing the Catholic Faith with the youth of our Parish is a rewarding and faith-affirming experience.
Classes are held on Sundays from 9:30 am -11:00 am, Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons from 3:45 pm - 5:00 pm, and Tuesday evenings from 7:00 pm - 8:15 pm.
Please consider volunteering. For more information email Mary Humphrey at mhumphrey@respreprye.org, or call 914-925-2754.
RCIA
Have you ever thought about becoming a Catholic? Are you a baptized member of another Christian denomination who seeks full communion with the Catholic Church? The RCIA is a formation process through which adults prepare to receive the sacraments of Christian initiation: Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist.
You are most welcome to explore this wonderful process. Registration is required for the process which will culminate with the administration of the Sacraments at the Easter Vigil.
Please contact Fr. Epi at (914) 967-0142 for additional information.
Do you long to get your priorities in order?
Have you been going through the motions in your spiritual life but wonder how it all relates to your day-to-day life?
Do you want to know Christ in a personal way?
Opening Your Heart explores the fundamental questions of our Catholic faith and our relationship with Jesus Christ. We'll dig into topics like prayer, reading the Bible, the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives, and what we're supposed to do with suffering that feels senseless. As we're wrestling with our questions through the study, we'll be challenged to open our hearts to the only One who can bring the healing and transformation we so desire.

3 MINUTE RETREAT
SAVE THE DATE
HELLO! I’M YOUR ENVELOPE REMINDER ANGEL
I’ve been assigned to watch over you for the summer months. While you are enjoying the summer sun and activity, don’t forget your church here at home. Your help will still be needed to meet the current expenses. If while on vacation you cannot contribute regularly, may we suggest that you keep unused envelopes on hand and bring your contributions up to date when you return.
May God Bless you and keep you all safe and well!
PLEASE PATRONIZE OUR LOYAL ADVERTISERS WHO HAVE BEEN SO GENEROUS DURING THIS PAST YEAR OF THE PANDEMIC.
