HEART TO HEART…

Dear FRIENDS in CHRISTmas JOY,

We all have a need to be loved. We are co-creators with God in giving new life to a very needy world. Every gift of self, every smile, every outward sign of friendship, and every prayer bring new life and new hope to a world filled with sadness, confusion, and strife.

It is our pleasure to let you know that we have found so much love, warmth, and giving in the Catholic Community of Bridgeton, Cedarville, and Port Norris. The Spirit of Christmas is alive and well here. Just look around….

The Churches look absolutely magnificent. The many who took their time, gave of their talents, and expressed their love, reflect who and what we are—a people in love with God, with Jesus, with Jesus’ Mother Mary, and with God’s Church. The Spirit of the Living God is alive and well and living through, with, and in us. God bless you all—YOU are wonderful!

We would like to thank everyone for all you have done to Keep Christ in Christmas and for showing us, and so many others, that Jesus is the Reason for the Season. We are all grateful for your time, talent, and treasure.

Thank you for all of your many cards, as well as gifts and foods of all sorts. Thanks also for your generosity for the Salvation Army Giving Tree as well as for the coat drives. The coat drives still continue. Be assured of our prayers and our deepest thanks.

May 2010 be a Happy, Healthy, and Holy Year for your and yours. May the Spirit of Christmas remain alive in you and continue to deepen your faith and foster your fellowship. May this New Year bring us all closer to God, the Church, and each other.

May Our Heavenly Mother Mary intercede in all our needs of 2010.

Rev. Ariel Hernandez, Rev. William Bleiler, Rev. Daniel DiNardo, Rev. William Kelly, Deacon C.J. Achee, Deacon, Carmen Bischer, Deacon William Johnson, Mother Graciela and The Sisters, and The Staff of Our Parishes.

Family Perspectives By Bud Ozar
If the way your family communicates or resolves conflicts is not working, then take a tip from the Magi in today’s gospel and find “another way.” Be a “wise” person in this New YEAR and change what isn’t working!!!
