We are working on three initiatives: (1) A Welcoming Committee. This committee collects contacts of new parishioners and sends them invitations to a breakfast in order to welcome them. This committee is also (2) updating information on all Parish activities in order to print a Parish Directory for new and current parishioners. A (3) third venture is to constitute the council’s membership which has three categories: (a) ex -office members, (b) elected members, and (c) representatives from major Parish organizations. The council is about to nominate its officers for the coming year: President, Vice President and Secretary.

The Spiritans send their thanks for the generous response by the people of Holy Rosary Parish to their mission-sharing visit on the weekend of September 29-30, 2018 and for the gracious welcome given to Father Obu-Mends, CSSp, representing the Spiritans. Be assured of the prayers of the Spiritans worldwide for you, and for your intentions, and we ask for your continued prayers for us and for our shared ministries to God’s people everywhere. Do please continue to keep the missions of the Church in your hearts, the work of the Spiritans in mind, and the never-ending need to proclaim and witness to the Gospel in your own lives.

During the summer Iona Prep sponsored a Father-Son Mission to Peru. Sean Astorino, a student at Iona and a parishioner at Holy Rosary, went with his dad, Rob, for nine (9) days building and painting homes and painting a Catholic school. Rob, who is a lector here, served as a lector in Peru in Spanish. We are proud of you!
