THE SECOND COLLECTION TODAY
ST. JOSEPH SEMINARY
There will be a Second Collection at Masses This Weekend, September 23rd and 24th.
Thank you for your anticipated generosity in the Second Collection. It is the annual Appeal for Saint Joseph Seminary Dunwoodie in Yonkers. There is an extra offering envelope in your packet that was mailed home today.
Seminarian Joseph Lettieri will be speaking about this important collection at masses. A native of Long Island, Joseph will be ordained a Deacon shortly, and a priest next year.
Please pray for him and pray for all Seminarians at Dunwoodie.
Join us next Sunday ~ October 1st ~ at our Annual Scholastic Book Fair !!

All our welcome and It is always a fun, family event.
Coffee and donuts will be served.
And please know that a portion of all sales will go back to benefit the school.
It's a wonderful way to spend time after mass.
We hope to see you there !
Our music ministry and especially our adult choir could really use your help. Would you please pray especially hard this weekend while you're at Mass and see if the Holy Spirit will guide you to answer the call and help revitalize our Choir. If you have any doubt, any question as little or as silly as you may think it is, PLEASE let me know. I am willing to work with each and every individual so that together we can make this work for the benefit of the Parish.
Our Choirs begin rehearsal NEXT WEEK! The adult choir will begin on Thursday, September 28 at 7:00 p.m. in the choir room located on the first floor of the PREP building next to the church.
The Children's Choir will also begin on Thursday, September 28. The children rehearse at 6 pm in the Grammar School music room. The music room can be accessed directly from the main parking lot to the left of the main school doors. The Handbell Choir will begin on Wednesday, September 27 @ 6:30 pm in the Middle School Music room. The Middle School Music room is on the lower level off of the cafeteria. Please enter the M.S. from the main doors under the blue awning.

SO MUCH MORE THAN A BIBLE STUDY!!
Do you long to get your priorities in order?
Are you tired of constantly worrying and long for a more peaceful life?
Have you been going through the motions in your spiritual life but wonder how it all relates to your day-to-day life?
Opening Your Heart explores the fundamental questions of our Catholic faith and our relationship with Jesus Christ. We'll dig into such topics as prayer, conquering our fears, 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.

Today's Gospel
Matthew 20:1-16a
Jesus tells the parable of the owner of an estate who hires workmen for his vineyard. When, at the end of the day, he pays a full day’s wage to those who worked only one hour, those who worked all day complained bitterly. But the owner says, “I am free to do as I please, am I not?” Jesus reminds us through this parable that “the last shall be first and the first shall be last.”
PLEASE PATRONIZE OUR LOYAL ADVERTISERS WHO HAVE BEEN SO GENEROUS.
