PASTOR’S MESSAGE Pristine Churches Our two churches are the oldest, territorial churches in Hoboken. Our Lady of Grace is the oldest and the mother church. As the Catholic population swelled, a second parish was opened on the Jersey City border. The remaining three churches are technically ethnic parishes though today any one may attend any church. OLG is one of the largest churches in the country and one of the top five in the state of New Jersey. When it was completed in 1878, it was the largest in the state. It is amazing to behold. Through the years, work has been done. In the 1990’s the pastor painted the church and created the blue ceiling with stars. However, the roof needed work and Msgr. Herbster, my predecessor, raised $500,000 to put on a new slate roof, which should last 100 years. Since I became pastor we have addressed smaller projects to refresh the church. The Finance Council has been asking to address the entire church. Thanks to a family foundation grant, we are beginning to paint the church starting with the ceiling. After several bids and the assistance of the Property Management Office of the Archdiocese, we have contracted with Sumberac Painting and Plastering. They will use spot scaffolding so we can continue to worship regularly every weekend. At times, we will have to adjust our seating. It will take months for this to be completed. But it will be worth the wait. We are using the same colors. Since we are completing the parish center work and funding, last Easter we started our Church Restoration Fund. This Christmas our gift to the parish will be to continue to raise funds for church restoration. We are also addressing work on St. Joseph Church and I will discuss this in another bulletin. Thank you for your generosity. Please consider your Sacrificial Giving each week in the first collection. Peace, Fr. Alex Santora COME TO NOVEMBER FIRESIDE CHATS We continue our Wednesday evening Fireside Chats sponsored by our young adults and open to all parishioners. Please come to the OLG Rectory at 7:30 PM. This week’s topic is “How are we Sinners? I try to live a good life”. Some gather for Mass in the Chapel at 7 PM. Please check p. 7 of this bulletin for the month’s schedule. DONATE TO THE NOVEMBER SHELTER COLLECTION Each November, we hold our annual collection for the Hoboken Shelter. They recently served their 2 millionth meal. Located at Third and Bloomfield, the Shelter serves hot meals, counsels for jobs and transitions to permanent housing. We cannot do this alone but by supporting the Shelter we can live out our corporal works of mercy. Next week’s bulletin will contain an envelope for you to make your donation. 2015 MASS BOOKS ARE NOW OPEN A church tradition invites people to offer a Mass for a loved one or an intention. This is both for living and deceased. So you can offer a Mass for the anniversary of parents, or someone’s birthday, or the recovery of a sick person. We have living Mass cards for these intentions. Most people remember a deceased loved one. Please come to either rectory or mail in your requests. TODAY IS THE DEADLINE TO ORDER 2015 MISSALS We are accepting orders for the 2015 Missals, which contain all the readings and prayers for the Sunday Masses. Complete order form with your payment. $5 English; $8 Spanish.

HELP OUR MARINE Marine Captain Nicholas DeGregorio has returned home. He was very grateful for the three large boxes of items we mailed to him and his colleagues. Thank you for your generosity. He is living in Hoboken and worshipping with us. He has a request. There is a White House petition his Marines have created to honor our troops. Currently there are 1,500 service members in Iraq and thousands of others in the Persian Gulf supporting the fight against ISIS. And yet, there is no campaign medal for these brave men and women, as is customary. It is unfortunate that these warriors' efforts are being ignored. If any of our church members would like to vote on our petition to have a medal created for these great Americans who are away from their families and in harm's way, they can visit this link: https:// petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/create-operationinherent-resolve-campaign-medal-honor-ourdeployed-servicemembers-fighting-isis/dSt1ZzQZ.
