RESURRECTION CHURCH BULLETIN
September 11, 2022
Jesus beloved Savior,
in remembering these terrible events,
of September 11, 2001
we recognize our great need for Your
guidance and protection.
We have painfully learned that our country
is vulnerable and that violence can disrupt
both individuals and nations.
We pray then for healing for all the
people whose lives were shattered in
the attacks.
We pray for those who defend our freedom.
We pray for wisdom for our national leaders.
We pray for peace, for our country and our world.
Jesus, beloved Savior,
as we remember, hold us in Your loving hands.
Amen

SCHOOL TUITION FOR UKRAINIAN REFUGEES
AT RESURRECTION SCHOOL
As you know a full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in late February, 2022 Fr. Igor Voronstov from White Plains is a native of Ukraine and spoke at masses here in mid-March soliciting humanitarian aid for his fellow countrymen. Over $60,000 was collected and sent to The Ukraine from the good people of our parish.
Over the last 6 1/2 months, 13 million Ukrainians have been displaced. It is the largest refugee crisis since World War II ! They have had to flee their homeland and over 500,000 children have been enrolled in new schools in Europe and the United States.
Resurrection School has welcomed three new students from the same family this week from Kharkiv, Ukraine who were displaced by the war. They lived 20 miles from the Russian border. They moved to Port Chester during the summer.
This family was assisted by ReSET Westchester Inc. whose mission is to welcome displaced Ukrainian refugees and provide a safe home and enroll their children in good schools in Westchester. The Church of the Resurrection is a proud co-sponsor.
We are appealing to parishioners to assist with the tuition costs for the 2022-2023 school year for these three new Ukrainian students.
If you would like to donate toward their school tuition, please be generous THIS WEEKEND September 10th and 11th Special Second Collection.
Thank you for your anticipated generosity for this distraught family - our brothers and sisters who were forced to leave their homeland because of the war in Ukraine.
They will have the blessing of a top-notch Catholic Education thanks to you!
Today's Gospel
Gospel: Luke 15:1-32
The Pharisees grew angry because of the Jesus' compassion toward sinners. In response, Jesus tells of a son who squandered his inheritance, then returned to his father and asked to be treated as a hired hand. The father rejoiced, angering his older and more obedient son. The father explained that everything he owned belonged to his older son; but he had to rejoice for the son who was lost and had been found.

The music ministry will begin soon! We still need people for the adult choir. If you have ever thought about singing in the choir or you really want to but don’t think you can make the commitment, I urge you to pray about it. I guarantee you the rewards, spiritually mentally, and physically will be so rewarding! Specific start dates will be announced next week, but to help in your own planning here are the rehearsal times for our groups. Adult Choir rehearses on Thursday evenings at 7:00 pm and the children’s choir rehearses on Thursdays from 6:00 pm to 6:45 pm. The instrumental group will be “as needed” and you will have the dates well in advance.
Our handbell group will be tentatively on Wednesday evenings at 6:30 pm. To sign-up for any group please click on the link below.
As announced last week, we will hopefully be starting a handbell choir but we need people to ring! As you may have seen in the video posting last week handbell ringing IS FUN!
Take a look at this next video which shows you a little bit about handbell music.
DON'T BE INTIMIDATED BY IT. You will be taught how to read it, how to play it and you'll be so happy that you are in the group.

Walking with Purpose...more than a bible study.
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.
Classes will begin in the fall on either Tuesday mornings or Wednesday evenings.
PLEASE PATRONIZE OUR LOYAL ADVERTISERS WHO HAVE BEEN SO GENEROUS.
