FEAST OF THE ASSUMPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY

We are happy to offer you a beautiful liturgical hymn for your prayer this week in honor of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin

Mary on Monday, August 15, 2016. It is a beautiful prayer to Mary and her divine Son, Jesus, taken from the Divine Office Liturgy of

the Hours:

MARY’S ASSUMPTION INTO HEAVEN

Mary, the dawn, Christ the Perfect Day:

Mary the gate, Christ the Heavenly Way!

Mary the root, Christ the Mystic Vine;

Mary the grape, Christ the Sacred Wine!

Mary the wheat, Christ the Living Bread,

Mary the stem, Christ the Rose blood-red

Mary the font, Christ the Cleansing Flood,

Mary the cup, Christ the Saving Blood!

Mary the temple, Christ the temple’s Lord;

Mary the shrine, Christ the God adored!

Mary the beacon, Christ the Haven’s Rest;

Mary the mirror, Christ the Vision Blest!

Mary the mother, Christ the mother’s Son

By all things blest while endless ages run. Amen

God Bless,

Fr. Herb

WORDS OF TITHING FROM THE PEWS:

From the pastor: Jesus even gives us His Mother, Mary, to

be our Mother. And Mary loves each one of us with a

mother’s love. God’s giving to us knows no bounds. Our gifts

to Him are our humble and generous response.

Words on tithing from the Pews: With Tithing, we are

teaching our children that they, too, have an obligation to give

back to God and to be thankful with their money for

everything given to them.

Thank you for your sacrifice of Tithing!

WE HAVE A PARISH SEMINARIAN

PRAY FOR VOCATIONS TO

OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN!

Our parish is being blessed this year with a young man, our

parishioner, Elmer Nieto, who has been accepted by the Diocese as a

seminarian to begin pursuing a call to become a priest for the Diocese

of Paterson. Elmer will begin his academic studies and spiritual

formation this September at Saint Andrew’s College Seminary a part

of Seton Hall University in South Orange. Over the next several years

he will be discerning and the diocese will also be evaluating whether

God has called him to become a priest for our Diocese. As Elmer’s

parish family, we promise to pray for him and with him so that God’s

plan will become clearer and clearer during his seminary years.

Elmer came to our community from his home country of Mexico

when he was a teenager. He was diligent in learning English while

attending Parsippany Hills High School. He has worked hard to earn

his own living ever since he came to New Jersey. In recent year, he

has been employed in his brother’s family business. For the past 8

years, he has been the Leader of Music at our regular Saturday

evening 7:00 PM Spanish language liturgy. Elmer leads a music

group which has played at many Catholic Church events and at

cultural and family celebrations. We are proud of Elmer Nieto and

pray that one day he will be, God willing, a priest of the Diocese of

Paterson.

Another young man from Mexico, Eduardo Maceda, who worshiped

here in our parish for a while recently returned to Mexico where he

has begun studying with the Conventual Franciscan Friars to discern

whether God is calling him to be a priest. Please keep Eduardo

Maceda in your prayers, too.

Jesus calls us to pray that the Master of the Harvest - His Father and

Our Father in Heaven – will send laborers into the harvest. We need

priests, deacons, religious and lay ministers for the work of the

Church. “Ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his

harvest.” Luke 10:2. Because Jesus is calling on us to pray

specifically to His Father, the Harvest Master, I personally offer one

Our Father every day asking Our Father in heaven to call young

people living in our Diocese to become laborers for His harvest right

here in the Paterson Diocese. Please resolve to pray one Our Father

every day for vocations in our Diocese and in a special way

please include Elmer Nieto and Eduardo Maceda in your daily

vocation prayer.
