BULLETIN Announcements
►First Confession & Solemn Communion will be celebrated on Sunday, June 26, 2022 with a Solemn Divine Liturgy at 8:30am. The candidates this year are: Elizabeth Smithler and Cooper Ruff. Please pray that God blesses them with all the necessary graces, as they are making this important step forward in their spiritual life! I urge all parents of the candidates to receive the Sacrament of Confession a week before this celebration. I will be available to hear confession before or after each Liturgy on Saturday and Sunday. It is extremely important that parents set an example to their children who are preparing to receive God’s forgiveness for the first time.
► Sloatsburg Pilgrimage – The Sisters Servants of Mary Immaculate joyfully announce the 68th Holy Dormition Pilgrimage, August 13-14, 2022 at their motherhouse in Sloatsburg, NY. Considering the current and sad events happening in Ukraine the Sister Servants chose the theme for this year: “Our Loving Mother, Under your Patronage, Welcome Your children, We beseech You”. For additional information please visit the Sisters Servants webpage at: www.ssmi-us.org or call the parish office at (315) 252 5573.
►BISHOP’S APPEAL 2022 - Dear parishioners, every year during the month of May we start to support a special Eparchial fundraising called the Charities Appeal {or Bishop’s Appeal}. Our parish’s goal for this year is to collect $ 5,800 to support the Stamford Eparchy in its charitable actions. Through your generosity we were always able to successfully support our Stamford Eparchy. On behalf of our bishop, I want to thank you for you support!
►Food Pantry: Dear parishioners, if you have the opportunity please continue to support our local food pantries. When you come to church, you can bring non-perishable food and leave it in the church basement. Local food pantries help many people who are struggling, and our support is also needed to locally enhance this noble cause! Thank you!
