...from Father Gerard HOLY FAMILY FESTIVAL FINANCIAL RESULTS - Because
I can do all things in him who strengthens
me.
“I can’t do it.” How many mes have
you given up? How many mes have you lost
confidence in yourself? How many mes have you
stopped believing in your abilies? My guess is that
the answer most of us would give to the above
quesons is, “oen.” There are so many reasons to
be discouraged or to just give up on our dreams and
hopes. The reality is we have successes and failures
in life—somemes without any effort or fault of our
own. A failure or an obstacle does not necessarily
mean we can’t do something. What it may mean is
that we need a strength or a movaon that comes
from beyond our abilies.
In the spiritual life, we pursue not simply our own
plan, but we allow ourselves to be directed, oen in
a way that we do not want to go. “I can’t do that,”
more oen is really, “I won’t do that.” Fear is the
emoon that most oen causes us to believe that
something is impossible.
But what if it is not about me or what I want? If God
is truly calling us to something, will God not provide
us with the ability to do so? I don’t hold myself up
as an example of self confidence by any means, but I
do know that many accomplishments have occurred
because it has been the abilies that God has
bestowed on me. My own vocaon of priesthood
has provided me with many examples of what has
been done by him who strengthens me.
So to what is it that you keep saying, “I can’t?” Is it a
career advancement, a relaonship, a health
improvement, a religious vocaon, seeking
forgiveness or an act of mercy? Instead of saying, “I
can’t,” let us replace that phrase with another that
is just as familiar, “thy will be done.” When we say
these words in the Lord’s Prayer, we are
surrendering the personal concept of, “I can’t” and
accepng that with the Lord all things are possible.
I can’t but you can, O Lord, and may your will be
done through and with all of us who place our hope
in you.
all of the bills from the fesval have now been paid,
we can announce that this year’s fesval produced a
profit of over $77,000. It is, therefore, the most
financially profitable fesval in our seven year history.
Thanks to all who work so hard to make it a success
and to all of you who support the fesval.
I am oen asked what are we spending the fesval
money on? My answer always is, without the fesval
and our summer camp we would not have the funds
needed to operate our parish. As you will see when
this past year’s financial report is published, we
finished the fiscal year with a $77,000 operang
surplus. This small surplus is needed for, at best, the
building up of our savings and, at worst, to pay for
unexpected expenses that occur. The fesval profits
therefore are necessary to sustain our parish’s
everyday operaon.
THANK YOU! - A few recent events have occurred in
our parish that have happened only because of the
generous efforts of some dedicated parishioners. A
few weeks ago we held an outstanding Fall Fesval/
Carnival for families, last weekend we enjoyed a Fall
Party and dance and this past week our annual Golf
Oung occurred. I want to thank the members of the
Family Life, Fall Dance and Golf Commiees for making
these events possible. Being able to socialize and build
relaonships is an important part of our communal
life. We are all very grateful to those who have
worked so hard to bring us together in these ways.
CHILDREN’S LITURGY OF THE WORD - This week we
have begun an experience that we hope will enhance
the experience of our twice monthly preaching to
children. On the first and third Sunday of the month at
the 10:30 mass, the other priests and I have called the
children forward to share in the homily. Beginning this
week on the second and fourth Sunday of the month
at the same mass, children 5-10 years old will be
dismissed during the Liturgy of the Word, so that they
can have a more meaningful opportunity to reflect on
the Sunday scriptures. They will return as the
Offertory begins. As we begin this venture, the
separate experience will be led by the priests,
deacons, and Mrs. Cathy Weiss. We look forward to
this new way of sharing faith with our young people.
Peace,

REFLECTING ON THE WORD (from Sadlier Publicaons)
Gospel: Mahew 22:1-14 or 22:1-10
This is a story that actually happened: When a groom-to-be called
off the wedding, the bride decided
to go ahead with the wedding banquet. Instead of inving friends
and relaves, she invited some homeless people. These
unlikely guests in their thri-shop clothes had a wonderful me. And the bride who didn't become a bride had
the joy of sharing her banquet with them. This story is
very similar to today's gospel and the parable Jesus tells
about the feast hosted by God. The invited guests do not
show up, so other guests are gathered from the streets

On October 4th & 5th,
Holy Family will once again
be hosting a Baby Bottle
Fundraiser to benefit The
Life Center of Long
Island. The Life Center is
a crisis pregnancy center that counsels women
and men who are experiencing an unplanned
pregnancy. They provide maternity housing,
medical care, referrals, cribs, car seats,
diapers and ALL other baby items that are
needed. We are asking that you pick up a baby
bottle and fill it with your change. Most
importantly, we are asking you to recite the
prayer on the bottle.
The prayer attached to the bottle will enable
the counselors at The Life Center to say just
the right words a mother or father may need to
hear. It especially opens a mother’s heart to
accept the truth.
We believe these prayers
