Girls (and guys) just wanna have fun! Our parish’s “Hands of the Holy Spirit” Card Ministry group has found its niche, making cheerful cards for our sick parishioners and sympathy cards for families of deceased parishioners. An uplifting experience for our group as well as being fun! We recently reached out to our local nursing facility, Forest Manor, and spent a morning there interacting with residents to make cards, an event that was well received and energizing to our group. We would like to invite you to join us at our monthly card-making meetings, which are held the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 7 pm in the Religious Education Building. All supplies for card-making are provided, no special skills needed, so please consider joining us. Upcoming meeting dates: November 13th and December 11th. Any questions?

Vote Expected on NJ Assisted Suicide Bill – Action Required!

On Monday, October 29, 2018, the New Jersey General Assembly very likely will vote on the Aid in Dying for the Terminally Ill Act (A1504). The bill would allow physicians to prescribe drugs to end the lives of terminally ill individuals considered to have six months to live. The facts are clear - in California, in Vermont and in Oregon - states that have passed assisted suicide bills - insurance companies have denied individuals expensive healthcare coverage but offered them low cost drugs to end their life. In an era of cost control and managed care, patients with lingering illnesses may be branded as a financial liability for the insurance company, and decisions to encourage death could be driven by reducing costs. Please contact your state legislators and tell them that you oppose A1504. (votervoice.net/NJCC/Campaigns/57657/Respond).

SEEKING A CAR We have a family in desperate need of a car. If you have a car in good working condition that you no longer drive can you please donate it to our church? Call the church office if you can help, 908-637-4269.
