The Book Fair is finally here!
Join us after mass TODAY for our annual Scholastic book fair located just across the parking lot in the grammar school lower gym.
We have books for all ages. It is always a fun, family event and all are welcome to shop the fabulous assortment.
It's a wonderful way to spend time after mass. Coffee and donuts will be served. And please know that a portion of all sales will go back to benefit the school.
We hope to see you after mass!
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.
Registration will be ongoing for the next several weeks.
If you can't make it this week or next week then come in three weeks. If you have ever wondered what it would be like, come and see. You don't have to sing the first time, just come and watch and see what it's about. You don't have to be an opera singer or be able to read music. Just a good ear, a love for music and a willingness to serve your parish.
The final group I'd like to highlight in our Music Ministry is a new group that consists of absolutely no one at this very moment. Our parish instrumental ensemble. We are looking for musicians in our parish to join the choirs for special occasions such as Easter, Christmas, Pentecost, and Holy Thursday. If you play any string, woodwind, or brass instrument please let me know. I am building a database to see which instruments could be represented in the ensemble. The musicians for this group must have good music-reading skills. If you are a high school instrumentalist and have scored well in NYSSMA (Level 5 or higher) then you would be a good fit for this group.

Meals on Main Street (MOMS) will race our Third Annual MILES FOR MOMS event in downtown Port Chester on Sunday, October 15th at 8:30 am.
This year, proceeds from the race will go directly towards the 120,000 pounds of food needed to feed our community during the holiday season - meals for everyone's table from Thanksgiving through New Year, to be enjoyed with family and friends, for everyone and anyone in need. Will you race with us to help distribute these meals for our neighbors during the upcoming holidays?
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 21:28-32
Jesus speaks words of rebuke to the chief priests and the elders because they are not believing the teachings of John the Baptist. He warns them that tax collectors and prostitutes, who do believe John, will enter the Kingdom of God before them.
PLEASE PATRONIZE OUR LOYAL ADVERTISERS WHO HAVE BEEN SO GENEROUS.
