PARISH APPEAL - PETER'S PENCE COLLECTION
Next week our parish will take up the Peter's Pence Collection. This Collection allows the Holy Father to cast the light of Christ upon the world by providing emergency assistance to those who need it most around the globe. Please be generous in next week's Peter's Pence Collection.



MISSION STATEMENT
In a pre-revolutionary war multi-Christian environment St. Michael's Church, Cedarville, was incorporated in 1942 under the episcopal jurisdiction of the Diocese of Camden dedicated in the Catholic tradition through its assigned pastors and competent leaders for spreading the fullness of the faith by the preaching of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the priestly worship of Almighty God: "I will build my Church." (Matthew 16:16). Prior to the 20th-Century it's original jurisdiction fell to the Catholic Diocese of Trenton with the missionary foundation of St. Anthony's Church in Port Norris in 1913, later embraced as one of St. Michael's several missions in a 400 sq. mile wooded, farming and bayside region. Now in it's 21st-Century, St. Michael's Church having consolidated as a newly formed Parish of the Holy Cross with the merging Catholic Churches in Bridgeton and Rosenhayn continues its same mission challenging the faithful in a more dedicated Stewardship of time, talent and treasure for the building up of God's Kingdom on earth to His great honor and Glory until He comes again. Rev. William Bleiler

MERGER CORNER
The Core Team made plans for writing a Mission Statement for the four merging parishes, reviewed recommendations from the Transitional Liturgy Committee and discussed reports from the Transitional Finance/Facilities, Religious Education, and Ministry Committees last Tuesday at a meeting at St. Teresa's.

Parishioners from each of the four merging parishes will be asked to join a committee in writing the new Mission Statement.

The Core Team approved recommendations from the Transitional Liturgy Committee on areas such as Ushers/Greeters, Music Ministries, Decorations/Environment, Lectors and Eucharistic Ministers and Altar Servers.

Included in the report from the Transitional Ministries Committee were recommendations on Outreach/Social Concerns/ and the St. Vincent de Paul Society, the Altar and Rosary Society and Youth Ministry. The Transitional Ministries Committee will continue its work with a meeting Wednesday at Immaculate Conception. Also, our second Unity Hymn Sing will be held this Friday at 7:00 p.m. at St. Teresa's. We encourage our fellow parishioners to attend. If you have any questions about the merger of the four parishes or wish to provide input, please contact one of the Priest Co-Conveners or a Core Team member.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"Stewardship Nourishment"
"Get up and eat, else the journey will be too long for you!" (Kings 19:7b)
Jesus knew that the Stewardship journey would be difficult, so He gave us the nourishment of the Eucharist. When we join our sacrifices with the sacrifices of the mass, we find the strength to live out our calling to Stewardship.




COMBINED PARISH BBQ
The Annual Chicken BBQ held at St. Teresa of Avila is quickly approaching. It will be held on Sunday, September 13th. Please join us for a great time, and a chance for all the merging parishes to have a "get together." If anyone is interested in helping with the BBQ or wants to donate something for the Chinese Auction held that day, just call St. Teresa of Avila's rectory at 455-2323. We need lots of volunteers! Please join us - hope to see you there!



HYMN SING FOR UNITY!!

As a reminder, please use your current 2009 offering envelopes for the Sunday collection. On occasion we have received envelopes that are out-dated or without a name on it. Thank you very much for making sure your envelopes are current and correct. ~Sarah



A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE By Bud Ozar
Jesus tells us in today's gospel to "stop complaining among yourselves." Family conflict is inevitable but constant whining destroys relationships. We may feel better but others feel bitter. Address differences honestly and respectfully. Don't make them personal attacks.



MARRIAGE MOMENTS
Dates don't always have to be in the evening. Consider a lunch date. It's cheaper than dinner and if your kids are in school you don't have to get a babysitter.
