Finals Week Prayers

St. Mary's just wanted to let all the students know that we're praying for them during this exam week.  Here's a prayer that may be of assistance as you work on your finals:  

Christ my Lord, the Giver of light and wisdom, who opened the eyes of the blind man and transformed the fishermen into wise heralds and teachers of the gospel through the coming of the Holy Spirit, shine also in my mind the light of the grace of the Holy Spirit. Grant me discernment, understanding and wisdom in learning. Enable me to complete my examinations to the best of my ability and to abound in every good work, for to You I give honor and glory. Amen. 

St. Mary's Welcomes New Catholics

On Sunday St. Mary's welcomed our beloved bishop, the Most Rev. Joseph Cistone, to our parish.  

Bishop Cistone, Successor to the Apostles, brought the apostolic ministry to St. Mary's and received these eight candidates into the Catholic Church.  The bishop then, through the laying on of hands and the anointing with Sacred Chrism, imparted the gift of the Holy Spirit to them in the Sacrament of Confirmation and also gave them their first Holy Communion.  In addition to these eight, one adult Catholic student received the Sacrament of Confirmation.
