Oktoberfest CelebrationOur Stewardship Committee invites you to a free Oktoberfest on Sunday at 5pm. Father Matt and Stewardship Chair, Jeff Bodenmann (and others who are invited to help cook!), will provide a feast of Bratwurst, Kielbasa, Sage Sausage, Pretzels, Sauerkraut, Potato Salads, and Oktoberfest Beer, Wine, and Soda! If one the Yankees or Mets are playing in a playoff game that night, we will also show that on the Jumbotron in Hoag Hall, and TVs will be set up for any NFL Football games (and RedZone) as well. This event is free though we are asking people to RSVP, and you are welcome to make a donation to help cover the cost of the event if you want. It will be epic! |

The Missionary Church... both There and Here!" The Missionary Church... both There and Here!" A conversation with Sr Gwendolyn Hoeffel RSCJ who spent 50 years as a missionary nun in Japan, and now back in America for 10 years. A Missionary Religious, an Educator, Japanese School Administrator, caregiver to elderly Sisters, a Trustee at Convent of the Sacred Heart - 91st street, NYC...and a delightful woman of faith! How can we each be missionaries of the Church today! |

O God, the King of saints, we praise and glorify your holy Name for all your servants who have finished their course in your faith and fear: for the blessed Virgin Mary; for the holy patriarchs, prophets, apostles, and martyrs; and for all your other righteous servants, known to us and unknown; and we pray that, encouraged by their examples, aided by their prayers, and strengthened by their fellowship, we also may be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light; through the merits of your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. |

Whether you’re showing a car or coming to admire them, bring your friends and family for a day of great vehicles, food from our food truck, music from our DJ, an enormous ticket auction, and even the chance to meet a pet available for adoption.
