Dear Friends in Christ,

Congratulations to Reggie and Coleen Spinello. On

October 14th, Bishop Murphy awarded them the St. Agnes Medal for service to the Church. We are all grateful for their efforts on behalf of our parish and our feast! Thank you.

Please see the Bulletin for the Mass Schedule for All

Saints for Glen Cove and its environs. This year All Saints is a Holy Day of Obligation. One fulfills this obli-gation by attendance at a Mass, either here or at another parish. At Saint Rocco, we will celebrate a Vigil Mass on October 31 at 7:30 pm and two Masses on the day at 7:30 am and 8:45 (in Italian). Additional possibilities are found at the neighboring parishes at Saint Patrick, Saint Hya-cinth and Saint Boniface.

The Novena for All Souls starts this Friday. This year

we will intercede for the beloved dead of our families and parish with three Masses on November 2 at 7:30 am, 11:00 am (First Friday Lunch follows) and 7:30 pm. The evening Mass will be a sung Mass in Latin in the Ordi-nary Form (Novus Ordo) and the music will be furnished by the Our Lady of Angels Young Women’s Choir. For nine days (November 2-11) Masses will be offered for the holy souls to aid them on their way to God.

From November 7-9 I will be away at the semi-annual Chapter in Klosterneuburg. I will be literally in Austria for about twenty hours. I return for the Annual Service Auction of All Saints Regional Catholic School. Anyone interested in attending this event should check out the website for information at www.asrcatholic.org or call the school at 676-0762.

On Tuesday, October 23, the school prayed the Rosary to honor Our Lady as is customary in October. What made this year special, however, was the fact that our Ro-sary was made of balloons. After the Middle School chil-dren led the Rosary, we brought outside, and released it, so we could watch our prayer rise up to Heaven. We will hope to do this again in May. Also, this coming week, on All Hallow’s Eve (Halloween), the school we end the day with an assembly in the parish center featuring a morality play. Children will be attired as saints and we will sing and honor the saints as preparation for our patronal feast, All Saints’ day.

OCTOBER 28, 2012: THIRTIETH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

Cari Amici in Cristo, Congratulazioni a Reggie e Coleen Spinello. Il 14 Ottobre, Mons. Murphy ha conferito loro la medaglia di S. Agnese per il servizio alla Chiesa Siamo tutti grati per il loro impegno a favore della nostra parrocchia e della nostra festa! Grazie. Vi prego di consultare il Bollettino per il Programma di Messe per tutti i Santi a Glen Cove e dintorni. Quest'anno Tutti i Santi è una festa di precetto. Si adempie tale obbligo quando assiste ad una Messa, sia qui o in un'altra parrocchia. A San Rocco, si celebrerà una Santa Messa della veglia il 31 ottobre alle 19:30 e due Messe il giorno di Tutti i Santi alle 7:30 am e 08:45 (in italiano). Altre possibilità si trovano presso le parrocchie vicine a San Patrizio, San Giacinto e San Bonifacio.

La Novena per tutte le anime comincia Venerdì. Quest'anno vogliamo intercedere per i nostri cari defunti delle nostre famiglie e la nostra parrocchia con tre Messe del 2 Novembre alle 7.30, 11.00 (segue il pranzo del primo Venerdì) alle 19:30. La Santa Messa serale sarà una Messa cantata in latino nella forma ordinaria (Novus Ordo) e la musica sarà condotta dal coro delle ragazze, “La Madonna degli Angeli”. Per nove giorni (2-11 Novembre), Messe saranno offerte in suffragio per le anime sante per aiutarli nel loro cammino verso Dio.

Dal 7-9 NOVEMBRE sarò al semestrale capitolo a

Klosterneuburg. Sarò letteralmente in Austria per una ventina di ore. Torno per l'annuale "Asta Servizio" Scuola per Tutti i Santi Regionale cattolica. Chiunque sia interessato a partecipare a questo evento dovrebbe controllare il sito web per informazioni a www.asrcatholic.org o chiamare la scuola a 676-0762.

Martedì scorso, 23 Ottobre, la scuola ha recitato il Rosario per onorare la Madonna è come consuetudine in Ottobre. Ciò che ha reso quest’anno speciale però, era che il nostro Rosario è stato fatto di palloncini. Dopo che i ragazzi della Scuola Media hanno recitato il Rosario, abbiamo portato fuori i palloncini, e li abbiamo lasciato, quindi abbiamo potuto osservare la nostra preghiera salire al Cielo. Noi speriamo di fare di nuovo a Maggio. Inoltre, la prossima settimana, su All Hallows Eve (Halloween), la scuola finisce la giornata con un’assemblea nel centro parrocchiale con un dramma morale. I bambini saranno vestiti come santi e canteremo ed onoriamo i santi come preparazione per la nostra festa patronale, il giorno di Tutti i Santi.

BULLETIN REFLECTION Today’s Psalm says, “The Lord has done great things for us; we are filled with joy.” Good stewards show by their living and giving that they understand God as the Source of all they are and have. We are grateful this week for all stewards in our parish whose outlook is challenged and changed as a result of embracing Stewardship as the heart of Christian discipleship, leading to a new way of life!

Bible Study Prayer Group Meeting will start

Tuesday, October 30th. at 7:30p.m. In the parish center All are welcome.

We also have set the tuition for this program for 2013-2014, and have various financial incentives for families with multiple children in our school.
