A Word from the Pastor …
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
Last Sunday’s Gospel on the care for the House of the Lord impelled me to write today about progress on two major projects
we are undertaking here at St. Peter’s. These projects can only happen through the generosity of parishioners like yourselves.
Church Handicapped Ramp - Thank God, last
week saw the pouring of the last batch of concrete,
which means that the ramp can now be used. Few
people can appreciate the amount of work (as well
as the amount of metal and concrete!) involved in
the construction of such a ramp. The old ramp,
built along with the Church 101 years ago, had
become not only an eye-sore, but had become even
dangerous to use (especially after the beating it
received with last winter’s storms). The new
ramp, which is over 75 feet long, not only makes it
much easier for disabled persons to use, but will
also allow access to the elevated Sanctuary Area of
the Church without the need to use any steps. It is
also designed in a way that a extra-heavy casket
can be wheeled to the Church without breaking
anyone’s back.
The about to be completed Church Handicapped Ramp
We are now waiting for the railings to be installed in the coming days. I am sure you will all be happy with the outcome of
this project.
Blessed Mother Grotto – We are now in the final stages of the construction of a grotto that will host a statue of the Blessed
Mother. The grotto is located just in front of the former Convent building (now used as the Parish Retreat House). Great care
has been taken to ensure that the structure blends well with the building just behind it. Work is progressing well on the construction of four arches, which are made of brick. The placing of the roof, the installation of railings all around, and the placing of the pedestal and statue should bring this project to its conclusion.
The grotto and statue will remain as a testimony to
the love that the parishioners (and others who participated in the project) have for the Blessed Mother.
The architect, contractors and many others are offering their services pro bono. We are only paying for
the materials.
It is also worth mentioned that all the money that is
being collected is coming from parishioners who are
not seeking any human recompense. I have resisted
the temptation to hold fund raisers to underwrite the
project … so that no one donates in the hope of getting anything in return (such as winning a raffle, or
any such thing). Every cent is a sign of gratitude
towards the Blessed Mother for the Maternal love
she continues to shower on all of us.
It is still not too late to donate towards the completion of these two projects. Why not consider contributing to two worthy projects that will be enjoyed by future generations of parishioners, just as we worship in a beautiful
Church built by poor immigrants over a hundred years ago?
Work on the Blessed Mother Grotto in front of the former convent
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Fr. Ivan Sciberras

POPE FRANCIS AT GENERAL AUDIENCE:
PRAY THAT THE PASTORS OF OUR COMMUNITIES
MAY BE THE LIVING IMAGE OF COMMUNION AND OF GOD'S LOVE
What is required of ministers of the Church –
bishops, priests and deacons – for their service to be authentic and fruitful?” This was the question posed by
Pope Francis in his catechesis during this Wednesday's
General Audience in St. Peter's Square.
In his pastoral epistles, St. Paul lists, alongside
faith and spiritual life, a number of human qualities essential for these ministries: hospitality, temperance, patience, gentleness, reliability, and goodness of heart.
These, said the Holy Father, are “the alphabet, the grammar at the base of every ministry! Without this predisposition to encounter, know, enter into dialogue with, appreciate and relate to one's brethren in a respectful and
sincere way, it is impossible to offer a service and a truly
joyful and credible witness.”
Pope Francis greets people as he arrives for his weekly open-air general
There is another basic attitude that Paul recomaudience in St. Peter's Square at the Vatican on November 12, 2014.
mends to his disciples and, consequently, to all those in
whom pastoral ministry is invested: the continual renewal of the gifts received. “This means always keeping alive the
awareness that one does not become a bishop, priest or deacon for being more intelligent or better than others, but by
receiving a gift from God … for the good of His people. This knowledge is truly important and constitutes a grace to be
asked for every day. Indeed, a pastor who is aware that his ministry stems solely from the mercy and from the heart of
God can never assume an authoritarian attitude, as if he had everyone at his feet and as if the community were his
own property, his own personal kingdom.”
“The awareness that it is all a gift, it is a grace, also helps the pastor not to give in to the temptation to place
himself at the centre of attention and to trust only in himself. These are the temptations of vanity, pride, sufficiency,
arrogance. God does not like it when a bishop, priest or deacon thinks that he knows it all - that he always has the
right answer for everything and has no need for anyone else,” exclaimed Pope Francis. “On the contrary, the knowledge that he, first and foremost, is the object of God's mercy and compassion must lead a minister of the Church always to be humble and understanding towards others. While aware of his being required to courageously guard the
Faith entrusted to him, he must always be willing to listen to the people. Indeed, he is aware that there is always
something to learn, even from those who may be distant from the Faith and from the Church. All this must lead him
to assume, with his brethren, a new attitude characterised by sharing, corresponsibility and communion.”
“We must always be grateful to the Lord Who, in the person and the ministry of the bishops, priests and deacons, continues to guide and form His Church, enabling her to grow along the path of sanctity. At the same time, we
must continue to pray, so that the pastors of our communities may be the living image of communion and of God's
love,” concluded the Bishop of Rome.
At the end of the General Audience, Pope Francis added: “It is with great trepidation that I follow the dramatic events of Christians who in various parts of the world are persecuted and killed for their religious beliefs. I feel
the need to express my profound spiritual closeness to the Christian communities who are so badly afflicted by an absurd violence that shows no sign of stopping, and I encourage the pastors and all faithful to be strong and firm in their
hope.”
The Pope thus launched a heartfelt appeal to all those with political responsibility at local and international
levels, as well as all persons of good will, “to mobilise consciences on a large scale in favour of persecuted Christians. They have the right to find safety and serenity in their own countries, freely professing their faith.”
THE ARCHBISHOP JOHN J. MYERS ANNUAL LECTURE SERIES ON LAW, SOCIETY AND FAITH
Noted theologian Dr. Regis Martin sheds light and hope on the nature of a “fallen world” for the
Archbishop John J. Myers Lecture Series with “Still Point: Loss, Longing, and our Search for God.”
The second annual lecture series continues on Wednesday December 3 at 5PM in Jubilee Hall
Auditorium, Seton Hall University, 400 South Orange Avenue. All are welcome and admission is free;
guests are encouraged to R.S.V.P. to Alexandra Benson at [email protected] or (973) 2752808.

FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK. . .
St. Peter’s School has been participating in
the SEEDS Program (Securing Elementary Education
through Development Solutions) during the past several years. Letters were mailed to alumni asking
them to participate in contributing to the Annual
Alumni Fund. I received a call from a graduate of St.
Peter’s class of 1947 Mr. Henry Watters, now living in
Arizona. He recalled fond memories of his alma mater and spoke of his brother one of whom is a Jesuit
Priest who also attended St. Peter’s School. Through
donations from our alumni, we will be able to continue to offer a quality Catholic School Education. If
you are interested in the school’s annual fund drive,
please call the school office for more information.
We at St. Peter’s continue to strive to make a
difference and follow in the footsteps of Jesus.
Throughout the next few weeks our students will be
conducting a school-wide food drive as the Thanksgiving holiday approaches.
“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of
the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did
for me”.

DAILY PRAYER
FOR THE HOLY SOULS IN PURGATORY
Immortal God, holy Lord, Father and Protector
of all You have created, we raise our hearts to You
today for those who have passed out of this mortal life.
In Your loving mercy, Father of all, be pleased
to receive them in Your heavenly company, and forgive
the failings and faults they may have done from human
frailty.
Your only son, Christ, our Savior, suffered so
cruelly that He might deliver them from the second
death. By his merits may they share in the glory of His
victory over sin and death.
For all the faithful who have died we pray, but
in particular for those dear to us, parents, relatives and
friends. Nor do we forget who did good to us while on
earth, who helped us by their prayers, their sacrifice
and their example. We pray also for any who may have
done us harm, as for all who stand in need of your forgiveness.
May the merits and prayers of our Virgin
Mother, Mary, and those of all Your Angels and Saints,
speak for us and assist them nw. This we ask in Christ’s
name. Amen.
