July 4th Weekend
Pray for Our Country and Leaders

JMJ
Dear parishioners.

Happy 4th!  St. Thomas Aquinas teaches that it is part of justice to be patriotic; to love one's country and be thankful for all our benefits.  Growing up we learned that we were to love God, family and country in that order. We have a great country with freedom won by the sacrifices of so many.  Of course we need to change things; such as the protection of the unborn in the womb and many other things. Nonetheless this is a country that has generally been God fearing. Let us pray for all to have peace in their hearts and turn to God in prayer and adoration. Let us ask God to bless our nation- protect and guide us.

We hope you will come to Holy Mass on the weekend or during the week.  The Outdoor Mass isn't ideal but we believe it is very safe. We encourage our parish family (those vulnerable - should stay home but it is their choice) to come to the Most Important thing we do each week - Go to Holy Mass and Recieve Jesus.  "Unless you eat of my flesh and drink of my blood, you have no life in you." We need this Sacrament so much. Please send an email to Linda at lbuckley@srydio.org or leave a voicemail telling us you are coming (that suffices for registering) at 315-963-7182.

POWER OF PRAYER: We are calling on all the parishioners to pray the rosary for peace every day!  Our Lady of Fatima, so important in our times, told us to pray the Rosary every day for peace.  Our Holy Father and the Church have repeatedly encouraged us to pray this amazing prayer that brings so much peace.  It is THE GIFT one receives from the Holy Father if he or she meets him - a blessed rosary. If only people would say this rosary - so much will change. There are live rosaries on youtube and facebook if you need help. 
 
Weekday Masses
 
Masses during the week are in the church and we ask you to observe social distancing at our Daily masses and adoration time. Masses on the weekend are outdoors and due to space we are asking you to register. Thank you!  See instructions below.
 

 

MASSES THIS WEEKEND WILL BE OUTDOORS IN OUR PARKING LOTS. 

• FOR CHRIST OUR LIGHT:  THE CHURCH PARKING LOT.

• FOR ST. ANNE, MOTHER OF MARY: THE NEW LIFE PREGNANCY CENTER PARKING LOT BEHIND THE RELIGIOUS EDUCATION BUILDING.

• 
  BTW - We are so grateful for the notes, prayers and financial support we have received.  IT IS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED. May the Good Lord Bless you and reward you.  Keep praying the Rosary and other prayers.  July is the month of the Precious Blood of Jesus - a very wonderful novena where we repeat after each invocation the words ' Save us!@'  Consider saying the Litany.
