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!!!

ST. ANTHONY'S ORGAN FUND DRIVE
Thank you to all of our parish families and friends who have contributed generously and helped us meet and exceed our goal of $4,000.00. We raised $4113.60 with your support. With happy, hopeful expectation that St. Anthony’s Mission is not closing, we anxiously await the new organ which is estimated to arrive near Christmas.

Stewardship Reflection
Humble Stewardship
“You, Bethlehem-Ephrathah, too small to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel.” - Micah 5:1

We may think that the gifts we have to offer may be too small or too inconsequential to give to God. Today we are reminded that God brought forth His greatest gift to mankind, His own Son, through the humble town of Bethlehem. He can also accomplish great things through our Stewardship if we generously offer our gifts to Him.

Retirement Fund for the Religious
Religious give thanks. Our parish contributed $341.47 to the Retirement Fund for Religious in the second collection on December 13, 2009. Of the support offered by this appeal, one religious writes, “We deeply appreciate this assistance. God’s loving care touches us through the hearts of thousands of Catholics who give so generously to this collection year after year.” Women and men religious throughout the country send their abundant thanks for your donation.

Marriage Moments by Susan Vogt The winter solstice brings the longest night of the year. Warm it with candlelight. For some couples, however, dark nights bring depression. If you are among those who are currently struggling in your marriage, turn to the power of prayer as one resource.

Petition Drive to Protect Marriage - In New Jersey, we are in the midst of a major effort to protect marriage as the union of a man and a woman. Governor Corzine has said he intends to enact a law that would make same-sex “marriage” legal in our state. The Bishops of New Jersey have united to oppose this effort to redefine marriage, while speaking out more clearly on the necessity to protect marriage as the foundation of the family and society. Part of the effort throughout the state is a petition signature drive in our parishes. This is your opportunity to send a message to your legislators that you want to protect and preserve marriage as the union of one man and one woman. This signature petition drive is set to take place later in the month of September, so that the signatures may reach the legislators before the November elections. Please read the petition below and take the time to sign the petition on the weekend(s) that the sheets are available. Petition: We, the undersigned parishioners, petition our members of the New Jersey General Assembly and Senate to preserve the definition of marriage as the union of one man and one woman. The institution of marriage existed long before any government, religion, or law. The Civil Union Act (NMJ Statutes 37:1-28) Chapter 103 of the laws of 2006 was enacted to give same-sex couples all the same rights and benefits as married couples. We respectfully ask you to enforce the Civil Union Act, and to reject all efforts to redefine marriage.

Retirement Party for Father Bill Details are not finalized but the planning committee has begun meeting. We are starting early with planning the program booklet and need pictures of Father Bill. If you have any pictures that you would like to donate, you can send them to the Rectory or email them to us. Originals will not be returned. Color copies or duplicates are preferred. We are also accepting tax-deductible monetary donations to help defray the cost of the expenses. Thank you.

Stewardship Reflection
Stewardship Evokes Trust
“Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petitions, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God.” ~Philippians 4:6-7 St. Paul reminds us that our God is an abundant God, the ultimate giver of gifts. He promises to give us all that we need. When we live Stewardship, and trust that God will take care of us, it is easier for us to share what we have been given.

Retirement Fund for the Religious
Religious face rising costs. Data submitted to the National Religious Retirement Office reveals that the average annual cost of care for women and men religious age 70 and over has more than doubled since 1989. Current statistics put this figure at $35,077 per person annually, with skilled care reaching nearly $55,000. Your donation to the Retirement Fund for Religious provides critical support to religious institutes in meeting the escalating costs of elder care. Please pray for all religious and give generously to today’s second collection. www.retiredreligious.org

Stewardship Reflection
Stewards Stand Erect
“But when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise you heads because your
redemption is at hand.’” (Luke 21:28)
Images of the final judgment can be scary. However, living as good Stewards, we have carefully planned our giving and followed Our Lord’s example of service and sacrifice. Thus, no matter the day or the hour we will be ready to stand erect and raise our heads to meet God face to face.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION - Stewardship Responsibility
"It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for one who is rich to enter the kingdom of God." (Mark 10:25)

These words of Jesus are so harsh that sometimes we are tempted to ignore our Stewardship responsibility, thinking that He really could not have meant them. Yet when our lives revolve around too many material possessions it is difficult to find the necessary time for God, for salvation and for God's beloved poor.

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE by Bud Ozar
Today's gospel is about a "new math." In a Christian marriage, 1+1 does not equal 1 or 2, but 3. Each person retains their own unique identity but together create another identity (the "one flesh" Jesus speaks of in the gospel) which is greater than the sum of the individuals. Christian marriage is a challenge to be greater than ourselves.

MERGER CORNER
The Transitional Ministry Committee met Sept. 16. Among the recommendations made by the Transitional Ministry Committee to the Priest Co-Conveners and Core Team is that ministries should remain in the churches that currently run them but that a common bulletin should be created and dispersed at all four merging churches announcing all ministry events for all parishes. The Transitional Ministry Committee will meet again on Sept. 30, 2009 at St. Teresa's.
The Core Team also formed a committee to write a Mission Statement for Holy Cross Parish using guidelines supplied by the Diocese. That committee will meet Oct. 5, 2009.
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.

THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!!
This year's Chicken BBQ was a great success! We sold out of chickens, all 1400 dinners! There were so many wonderful people from all four parishes pitching in to make it such a great event. We want to thank everyone who came out to help on Friday for prepping food, Saturday for setting up tents and getting chickens, and on Sunday for any and everything that needed doing. If this is any indication of the future, Holy Cross parish is going to have an enormous Chicken BBQ!! If was a pleasure working with all of you who volunteered, we couldn't have done it without you! We are looking forward to seeing even more people lending a hand for next year! God Bless, From the Contino and Maier Families

MERGER CORNER
The Core Team's Transitional Finance and Facilities Committee formed a Human Resources subcommittee that will review the staffing needs of the new parish and report back to the Core Team.
The Transitional Liturgy Committee met to review the lists of tasks sent by the Diocese for the committee to complete before the merger, and it was determined that the committee had addressed all of the issues. The Transitional Liturgy Committee also shared ideas about the Liturgy for the merger and will continue that discussion at the next meeting. Included in the agenda for the next meeting will be the formation of a Music Council.
The Transitional Ministry Committee also met and among the topics discussed was a Youth Ministry for the new parish.
The Core Team has also begun the process of writing a Mission Statement for the new parish through a subcommittee that will include members from each of the four merging parishes.

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.

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.

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.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"Stewardship not Hoarding"
"Each day the people are to go out and gather their daily portion; thus will I test them, to see whether they follow my instruction or not." (Exodus 16:4b)

Stewardship is about responsibility. God tested the Israelites when gathering manna, not to hoard unneeded amounts. We are also called to be content with a fair portion and be willing to share the rest with compassion.

MERGER CORNER
The Transitional Liturgy Committee discussed ways how the music ministries from the four merging parishes could be combined at a recent meeting held at ICC. Among the ideas discussed, one suggestion was that the choirs could rotate among the four churches. The Transitional Liturgy Committee also discussed forming a "Music Council" that would plan and develop our music ministry and include the music/choir director from each of the four merging parishes. The Transitional Liturgy Committee's next meeting is August 17 at St. Teresa's. Also, our second Unity Hymn Sing will be held on August 21 at 7:00 at St. Teresa's. Our first Unity Hymn Sing was a great success. We encourage our fellow parishioners to attend on August 21 and enjoy the musical talents of the men, women and children of our merging parishes.

Welcome Father Michael Goyette from St. Teresa of Avila, Bridgeton. He is our visiting priest celebrating Mass this weekend at St. Michael's and St. Anthony's.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"Stewardship of Sharing"
"There is a boy who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are these for so many?" (John 6:9)

The miracle of the Loaves and Fishes is the only one of our Lord's miracles which is recorded six times in the Gospel. It carries two important messages. First, no matter how little we have, we always have enough to share in Stewardship. Second, Christ can take our humble gifts and do great things with them if we are just willing to let him.

COMBINED PARISH BBQ
The next planning meeting will be held at St. Teresa of Avila Rectory Meeting Room August 6, 2009 at 7:00 p.m. Call (856) 455-2323 for more information. We need lots of volunteers! Please join us!

F.L.A.M.E. III Sessions - Discernment and the Laity's Call to Ministry
When having to deal with major career and life events, have you ever asked yourself how do you know that you are moving in the correct direction? With such choices, where is God in all of this? Wondering how God is REALLY working in your life?

These are but a few number of interesting, challenging, and practical topics which will be addressed in our next F.L.A.M.E. series. Discernment and the Laity's Call to Ministry.
From this two-session program, attendees will be exposed not only to the real meaning of discernment, but how, if we are open to such an experience, it can dramatically and positively change our lives.

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, Absecon - Aug 12; Aug 19

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"Stewards Lack Nothing"
"The Lord is my shepherd, there is nothing I lack." (Psalm 23:1)
Modern advertising tempts us to want so many things. Yet a faithful Steward knows the difference between what he wants and what he needs. We can give generously when we trust that the Lord will provide for all our true needs.

MERGER CORNER
The Priest Co-Conveners and Core Team thank our fellow parishioners for their participation in the naming of the new parish. The results of balloting over two weekends at the four merging parishes have been forwarded to Bishop Galante for his review.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"Stewardship Baggage"
"He instructed them to take nothing for the journey but a walking stick - no food, no sack, no money in the belts." (Mark 6:8)
How different are we than the Apostles who took nothing when they ventured out to serve God? Today, we make our journey through stewardship more difficult if we drag along too much material baggage. The more we can let go, the freer we are to serve God with love and joy.

FAMILY PERSPECTIVES By Bud Ozar
Jesus sent out His apostles without a lot of "things." Today's gospel challenges us to look at the "things" crowding our lives; we collect, possess, argue over, and worry about "things." Often we are so busy doing "things" we don't have time for the people closest to us. Are "things" separating you from your family?

MARRIAGE MOMENTS
What's the most important factor in choosing a spouse? Not even Solomon should attempt to answer this, but consider the following three ingredients: Physical attraction + shared values + full commitment = a good chance to make a marriage work.

PARENTING POINTERS
Do summer days with kids wear you out? Even if your children are past the napping stage, consider an "after lunch quiet hour." Kids don't have to sleep, just spend some time reading, drawing, or daydreaming. Having moments of quiet during the day give God space to enter our lives.

SILENT RETREAT
A Woman's Silent Retreat sponsored by The Mother of Divine Mercy Center of the Church of the Immaculate Conception and spiritually directed by Father Ariel Hernandez will be held on July 17-19 at Pope John Paul II Retreat Center in Vineland, NJ. All are invited to the peace and quiet that the presence of God provides, and to awaken a new life filled with faith, where you will come away and experience the companionship and comfort of the One who says, "Be still and know that I am God."

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"On our Feet Stewardship"
"As he spoke to me, spirit entered into me and set me on my feet, and I hear the one who was speaking say to me: Son of man, I am sending you . . . " (Ezekiel 2:2 and 3a)
God sends each of us to do some special work for Him. He gives us all the talents that we need to do that work. However, do we listen to God when he calls? Do we get up on our feet and give our time to do the work of our calling? This is the basis for good Stewardship.

FAMILY PERSPECTIVES By Bud Ozar
Today's gospel is so familiar it hurts! The home town folks couldn't accept the presence of God in Jesus. After all, they had seen him grow up. We can easily make the same mistake if we don't see God present in the ordinary routines of family life. "The Lord be with you" is a statement of fact. Believe it. Live it.

MARRIAGE MOMENTS
"[Love] is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury." (Corinthians 13:5)
Sure, you might be right. Yes, you might be justified in feeling offended. Nursing that grudge, however, will not heal your relationship. Get some distance then let go of the negative feelings.

SILENT RETREAT
A Woman's Silent Retreat sponsored by The Mother of Divine Mercy Center of the Church of the Immaculate Conception and spiritually directed by Father Ariel Hernandez will be held on July 17-19 at Pope John Paul II Retreat Center in Vineland, NJ. All are invited to the peace and quiet that the presence of God provides, and to awaken a new life filled with faith, where you will come away and experience the companionship and comfort of the One who says, "Be still and know that I am God."

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Conscious Stewards

"Your surplus at the present time should supply their needs." (II Corinthians: 14a)
As conscious stewards, we count our blessings and when we see that we have been abundantly blessed by God, we become willing to share our time, talent, and treasure with those who we are called to support.

SILENT RETREAT
A Woman's Silent Retreat sponsored by The Mother of Divine Mercy Center of the Church of the Immaculate Conception and spiritually directed by Father Ariel Hernandez will be held on July 17-19 at Pope John Paul II Retreat Center in Vineland, NJ. All are invited to the peace and quiet that the presence of God provides, and to awaken a new life filled with faith, where you will come away and experience the companionship and comfort of the One who says, "Be still and know that I am God."

For more information, please contact Cynthia Radano (856) 451-0880.

MERGER CORNER
The balloting for the naming of the new parish began last weekend and will conclude today. Please make your selection and return your ballot today. The results will be forwarded to Bishop Galante, who will review the results and select a name. Your input is very important in this process and your participation is much appreciated.

The Transitional Liturgy Committee met June 15 at St. Michael's and started the process of selecting chairpersons for the various subcommittees. Nancy Ewing, from St. Teresa's, and June Seiber, from St. Mary's, will co-chair the Decorations/Environment subcommittee. The Transitional Liturgy Committee also decided that the Liturgy Committee for the new parish would be formulated in the same manner as the Transitional Liturgy Committee, with representation from each of the four merging parishes along with the Priests and Deacons. There was also a review for the various ministries at each church, particularly the music ministries, in preparation for the merger. The next meeting of the Transitional Liturgy Committee is July 6 at Immaculate Conception. The next meeting of the Transitional Finances/Facilities Committee will be on June 30.

A second Unity Hymn Sing is scheduled for August 21. The site is yet to be determined.

We thank you for your prayers and support as we move through this process.

CAST YOUR VOTE FOR THE NEW MERGED PARISH NAME

2009-06-22T13:24:00.005-04:00

The following choices for the name of our merging parishes of St. Michael, St. Mary of Rosenhayn, St. Teresa of Avila and Immaculate Conception will be printed in our upcoming bulletin. Your help in casting the vote for our new name is an integral part of our four churches becoming one merged parish. Please cast your vote and drop your choice in the collection plate during Mass. Thank you.

List of suggested names for our Parish Merger

1. THE HOLY CROSS
The Holy Cross represents the triumph of God's great love. Jesus, the Lamb of God, died on the Holy Cross for each of us, for our salvation, and for our healing. The Holy Cross is a sign of love, mercy and forgiveness. Let us look to the Holy Cross for unity and healing. The four churches in our parish merger form the horizontal and vertical beams of the cross.

2. MARY HELP OF CHRISTIANS
Throughout history, Mary has been the Help of Christians. She interceded at the Wedding Feast of Cana. She saved Europe in the Battle of Lepanto. She continues to bring heavenly help at Fatima and at Lourdes. She intercedes for all those who seek her help, especially through the rosary.

3. MARY QUEEN OF ALL THE SAINTS
Mary is the model of discipleship for all the saints. Many of the saints consecrated their lives to Our Lady, seeking her guidance and protection. Our merger has two churches named for saints and two churches named for Mary.

4. ST. JOHN OF THE CROSS
St. John of the Cross was a Spanish Carmelite priest, a great mystic and a Doctor of the Church. With Teresa of Avila, he reformed the Carmelite Order. He was the spiritual director of Teresa of Avila.

5. ST. VINCENT de PAUL
St. Vincent de Paul was a French priest who founded the Vincentians and cofounded the Sisters of Charity. He dedicated his long life to helping the poor and needy. The St. Vincent de Paul Society is named for him.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"Then he asked them, 'Why are you terrified?' Do you not yet have faith?'" (Mark 4:40)

The thought of Stewardship terrifies some of us. We may feel that we cannot afford to give God a grateful share or to give the first fruits rather than the leftovers. It takes great faith and trust to believe that God will always provide us with all that we need, if we trust Him enough to give to Him first.

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE
By Bud Ozar
The apostles in today's gospel were amazed at the power of Jesus. Children are amazed at our lack of fear of dark rooms or monsters in closets or under beds. As the apostles depended on Jesus, children depend on us to restore quiet to their lives. Getting out of bed in the middle of the night to quiet a child's fears is the stuff of holiness.

SILENT RETREAT
A Woman's Silent Retreat sponsored by The Mother of Divine Mercy Center of the Church of the Immaculate Conception and spiritually directed by Father Ariel Hernandez will be held on July 17-19 at Pope John Paul II Retreat Center in Vineland, NJ. All are invited to the peace and quiet that the presence of God provides, and to awaken a new life filled with faith, where you will come away and experience the companionship and comfort of the One who says, "Be still and know that I am God."

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"The Perfect Steward"
"Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it." (Mark 14:23)

Jesus, the perfect steward gave thanks, offering His disciples, including us, a chance to drink from His own cup. We can respond to the Eucharist by offering our time, talent, and treasure as a means of sacrificial giving.

GIFTED BY GOD: A PROGRAM FOR DISCERNING YOUR SPIRITUAL GIFTS
Are you interested in finding out your strengths and talents, and how you can use them for the betterment of your community as well as personal satisfaction? The Cumberland County Servants of the Church will sponsor a seminar, "Gifted by God: A Program for Discerning Your Spiritual Gifts" on Saturday, June 20 from 8:30am to 1:00pm at St. Mary's Church, Morton Ave., Rosenhayn.

The program will include speakers Deacon Bill Johnson of St. Teresa of Avila, Bridgeton; and Deacon Chris Nichols of St. Mary's; as well as an opportunity for all to take and score a spiritual gifts inventory to identify your own individual gifts.

Coffee, tea and pastries will be served at a late-morning break. Music will be provided by Darrin and Sarah Krug.

To register, call Dolly Smith (856) 825-6988, or you may register at the door. There will be a $10.00 fee to cover the cost of books and materials. Please join us for a stimulating and informative session.

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE
By Bud Ozar
In the gospel today, Jesus tells his disciples, "you will meet a man. . . follow him . . . he will show you." Every child needs "a man" to "follow" who gives them direction, not so much by words, but by "showing." Fathers are called to be "the man," the "show-man."

SILENT RETREAT
A Woman's Silent Retreat sponsored by The Mother of Divine Mercy Center of the Church of the Immaculate Conception and spiritually directed by Father Ariel Hernandez will be held on July 17-19 at Pope John Paul II Retreat Center in Vineland, NJ. All are invited to the peace and quiet that the presence of God provides, and to awaken a new life filled with faith, where you will come away and experience the companionship and comfort of the One who says, "Be still and know that I am God."

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"Stewardship Spirit"
"The spirit itself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ." (Romans 8:16, 17a)

If we are heirs to the Kingdom of God, should we not work to build up that Kingdom, by being good stewards of our inheritance, using our time, talent and treasure to care for the treasured heirloom of our church?

Thank you in advance for your generosity in the second collection today which is taken up for the Brazilian Missions. Your support will help assist this important mission work in South America.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"Stewardship Benefit"
"To each individual the manifestation of the spirit is given for some benefit." (1 Corinthians 12:7)

Our Stewardship calls us to use our giftedness for some benefit in God's plan. The sum total of the Stewardship of the body of believers helps fulfill God's plan. Each gift of time, talent and treasure, is promised to bless and to herby, benefit us as we see God using us in His plan.

Do you love Jesus? Stewardship is a way of life following this commandment. We give our time, talent and treasure as an act of imitating Jesus' actions and loving one another.

HOUSE OF CHARITY
"Helping others reach for a new day rejuvenates us in ways that more stuff, a fatter resume, or a super-sized house can't begin to. We want to feel useful. We want to find meaning. We want to feel this alive and on fire with possibility." Susan Skog

Let a gift to the House of Charity allow the fire of love to grow in you. Your donation helps ensure that vital programs continue, which not only give financial support but teach others to improve their difficult situations and become more independent.

MERGER CORNER
The Transitional Liturgy Committee met last Monday at St. Teresa's. Representatives from each of the four merging parishes provided an overview of some of the liturgical ministries of their parishes. The members of the Transitional Liturgy Committee will review the reports from the four parishes on their liturgies and return to the next meeting with recommendations. That process will be repeated until all of the liturgical ministries at each parish have been reported on and reviewed and presented to the Transitional Liturgy Committee for recommendations in the formation of the new parish. The Transitional Liturgy Committee plans to meet twice a month.

The other transitional committees - Finance and Facilities, Religious Education Committee and Ministry Committee - plan to hold their first meetings before the end of the month.

A second Unity Hymn Sing will take place in July. A date will be announced soon.

The Priest Co-Conveners and Core Team end each Core Team meeting with a prayer from our parish planning process. We thank our fellow parishioners for your support and ask you to join us in this prayer.

Heavenly Father, we ask You to guide us as we enter into and continue the task of creating our new parish. Help us to maintain a balance between what we would like the parish to be and what we are capable of becoming. We pray that You send us the Holy Spirit, that he grant us the graces needed; not be threatened by the enormity of the task nor by the nature of what we have been entrusted to do. We ask Our Lady to intercede for us, and to keep us always focused on the fact that we are on this Earth to prepare for an eternity with You in heaven, and that all we do is for Your greater honor and glory and not our own. We ask this through Christ, Our Lord. Amen.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Stewardship Really Matters
"Better to take refuge in the Lord than to put one's trust in mortals." (Psalm 118:8)

Too often our society trains us to take refuge in man-made riches. Too many possesions can leave us empty, always questing for more things that do not really matter. The good we do and blessings we recieved from giving our time, talent and treasure in Stewardship really matter.

HOUSE OF CHARITY
Please begin to think about your annual contribution to the House of Charity as we start our campaign with the shore parishes of the Diocese of Camden. The parish successfully raised it's goal of $13,000.00 during our last campaign and as a result, we received a check in the amount of $1,300.00 (10 percent of the goal.)

Father Bill will be coordinating the House of Charity campaign as he has done before. Again, thank you for your generosity in the past.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Hands and Feet of Stewardship
"Then he said to them, "Why are you troubled? And why do questions arise in your hearts? Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have." (Luke 24:38-39)

These words from the Risen Christ are good advice when we are troubled or doubtful about our stewardship decisions. Just look at the hands and feet of the Lord. How can we refuse to be the hands and feet of Jesus, living out the sharing of our time, talent and treasure here on earth.

FAMILY PERSPECTIVES
By Bud Ozar
In today's gospel, the disciples recognized Jesus only after they ate with Him. Only then did their fear leave them. Perhaps we would relieve anxiety in our homes if we shared in more focused family meals.

Diocesan Wedding Anniversary Mass

Marriage Moments
It's so tempting when another insults or hurts you to reply in kind. Tempting, but not helpful to your marriage. It may seem counter-intuitive to suck it up, but it's not a new idea. Consider the scripture "Do not return evil for evil, or insult." (1 Peter 3:9)

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
"The comunity of believers was of one heart and mind, and no one claimed that any of his possession was his own, but they had everything in common." (Acts 4:32)

Stewardship calls us to recognize, just as the early Christians did, that none of our possessions are our own. All that we have - our health, our education, our skills, our talents, and our livelihood - are gifts from God. How do we give back of our time, talent and treasure to God?

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Thankful Stewards
“Give thanks to the Lord, who is good, whose love endures forver." (Psalm 118:1)

We thank God for His Son Jesus, who died and arose for us. We celebrate and sing, "Alleluia." But how do we live the responsibility of our Stewardship all year, showing our gratitude to the Lord who spread out His arms on the cross to save us and show us the way to salvation.

FAMILY PERSPECTIVES
By Bud Ozar
Look at all the running on the first Easter as Mary, John and Peter searched for Jesus. Easter announces we don't need to run around to find the Lord. He is discovered in sacrificial love of parents, in moments of forgiveness, in laughter and love shared, in a comforting hug and a meal shared together.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Stewardship is Needed
If anyone should say to you, "Why are you doing this?" reply, "The Master has need of it and will send it back here at once." (Mark 11:3)

Why are you doing this? This is a question that could be asked of anyone who gives time, talent and treasure to the church. An answer is found in these words, "The Master is in need of it." As stewards, we are called to give of ourselves to the Lord in the ministries where we are most needed.

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE
By Bud Ozar
Following Christ is not easy. Like Jesus we will experience betrayal, denial, being ignored, falsely accused and left alone. Even friends will "look on from afar." Family is the gift given to us so we never stand alone. Being together is the stuff of holiness.

EASTER FLOWERS
All Flower money needs to be in by this weekend. We will print a list in the Easter Bulletin.

DAY AT SACRED HEART HIGH SCHOOL
On Friday, April 24, 2009, all 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students are invited to attend "DAY AT SACRED HEART HIGH SCHOOL." It will be an interesting, informative and enjoyable day. It is designed to better acquaint the students with our fine school.
The program will begin at 8:30am and conclude at 1:15pm. Parents are certainly invited to spend the day with us also. Please call us at (856) 691-4491 ext. 1111 to advise if you will be attending.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Stewards are God's People
“But this is the covenant which I will make the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord. I will place my law within them, and write it upon their hearts; I will be their God, and they shall be my people." (Jeremiah 31:33)

What does it mean to be God's people? It means that first we recognize that everything we have and everything we are truly belong to God. It also means that we are willing to use our gifts and lives in Stewardship. We are to take care of the world as God takes care of us.

FAMILY PERSPECTIVES
By Bud Ozar
Today's Gospel teaches about sacrificial love. Dying to our selves is the key to successful relationships. Forgiveness is heart of communal living. Family life and relationships require us to "love one another as I have loved you."

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Stewardship Sacrifice
“For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes might not perish but might have eternal life." (John 3:16)

Of all the wonderful gifts that God has given to us, the gift of His own Son is truly the greatest. How can we ever thank God for a gift like that? God does not ask us to sacrifice our own precious first born, but He does ask that we give sacrificially of our time, talent and treasure in service to His people.

HOUSE OF CHARITY
All donors should complete their pledge payment by March 31.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
“You shall not crave idols for yourself in the shape of anything in the sky above or on the earth below or in the waters beneath the earth.” (Exodus 20:4)

Have you created idols for yourself in earthly shapes? An idol, which blocks stewardship, can be in the shape of money, sports, fashions, travel or anything else we value more than God and His word to us.

FAMILY PERSPECTIVES
By Bud Ozar
Listen to Jesus in today's Gospel "Stop making my father's house a marketplace." Has your home become more a place of business rather than a sanctuary of love and intimacy? Make your home a haven for your family, a harbor of safety from the stormy seas of life.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Withhold not your Stewardship
“Do not lay your hand on the boy,” said the messenger. “Do not do the least thing to him. I know how devoted you are to God, since you did not withhold from me your own beloved Son.” (Genesis 22:12)

Abraham was so devoted to God that he was willing to sacrifice his only son. How does our own devotion compare? Do we withhold time, talent, and treasure from the God who sacrificed His only Son for us?

FAMILY PERSPECTIVES
By Bud Ozar
In today’s Gospel, Jesus was transfigured, revealing His Glory that will overcome His passion and death. The suffering in our own lives and families will also be overcome by the Glory of Jesus. And we will share in that glory!
