PARISH LIFE SPRING CALENDAR

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND

Running the Race-sports images in St. Paul

Father Frank Berna OFM, Ph.D Director of Ministry Graduate Studies at LaSalle University will be here on April 29th 7-9pm in the crypt chapel

presenting on this current topic. St. Paul uses some powerful sports imagery to describe the Christian life. Come hear how being a good athlete can help one be and even better disciple of Jesus. Get a glimpse of the relationship between sports and spirituality. We have had wonderful speakers all this year as we have learned more about St. Paul. Father Berna will be our last speaker on the topic and we left him till now so our young people could bring their teams or sport friends. Parents please bring your child and enjoy an evening of togetherness.

BOOK CLUB

 Please check back for more dates of our Book Club Meetings.

GATHERING SUNDAY

This is our third year of Gathering Sunday where we come together over coffee & donuts in the school cafeteria to welcome newcomers and to visit with friends. This gathering follows the 10:30 am mass on the third Sunday of each month. The cafeteria is wheelchair accessible from the front of the school building.

PRAYER SHAWL MINISTRY

Shawls continue to arrive at the parish from our busy knitters and are delivered to those who are ill, lonely or who need comfort and extra prayers. Shawls have also been given in times of celebration. Our parish ladies have been very generous and shawls have gone out to other parishes, organizations and hospitals. 

Please look for updates on these programs in the church bulletin and online at our parish website.  If you are interested in helping with any of these programs you are most welcomed. Contact person is Jane McCorkell, Director of Parish Life Ministry and may be contacted at 235-2374 or email mccorkellj@ olgcnj.org.
