A Letter From Gary Maccaroni
Dear Friends,
As we continue our Christian journey, we await the Season of Lent. Lent
is a season that invites us into conversion and deep personal
reflection. It is a time of new beginnings, new starts and new life. One
important way that the parish supports this invitation is through our
ongoing Adult Faith Formation events. These opportunities give us time
to reflect on our faith or some aspect of our Catholic tradition with other
people of faith. Such opportunities can provide a new start, aid our
reflection, or be a sign post giving us direction along the way. We hope
that you would take the opportunity to participate in one or more of these
events. Here are the different events we have planned—winter/spring
2015. Please check the parish bulletin and the church website for
details, times and dates. All are welcome! In January and February, we
complete our Christian Art Series with lectures on Church Architecture
and Pilgrimage, by parishioner Aneta Samkoff.
We continue our exciting Wednesday evening scripture study on the
Gospel of John led by parishioner Fred Vasapolli.
Parishioner, Dr. Laura Dunham, who is writing a new book on Mary, will
help us experience Lent with Mary, a six week course offered both in
the day and evening to accommodate parishioners. Laura will also help
us find and appreciate what particular Catholic prayer practice we are
best suited for in a mini-workshop, Exploring Prayer Practices.
Fr. Vince will return to facilitate an evening of reflection during Lent for
the men of the parish, Preparing Our Lenten Journey. And, once
again the women of the parish will come together for a day of reflection.
Kean University Church historian Dr. Chris Bellitto returns to focus on the
Church and reform, Reforming a Challenged Church: Six Lessons
From Church History. This is a timely presentation that follows the
World Synod on the Family (Fall 2014), as we await Pope Francis’s visit
to Philadelphia in 2015 to address the family.
On Passion Sunday, our Adult Choir presents The Shadow of the
Cross—A Contemporary Tenebrae Service by Lloyd Larson.
Sr. Rita Woehlcke, SSJ, will join us to facilitate a workshop for all those
who participate in a parish ministry, The Body of Christ at Work, as we
explore what it means to work together for a common purpose or
mission.
Our science and faith offering is Evolution and Theological Identity
which explores the relationship between science and faith, asking the
question, “What does it mean to be made in the image of God if we
accept that human beings have evolved?” Our goal is to update
participants on the Catholic approach to the relationship between science
and faith, and the Church position on biological evolution.
For the fourth consecutive year, we will offer small groups and participate
in Living the Eucharist, a program designed by the Paulist
Fathers. This six week Lenten program introduces participants to the
practice of lectio divina, a unique way to pray and experience God’s
active presence through scripture. Groups start meeting the week of
February 15. Today’s bulletin has an insert with more information and a
way to sign-up for a small group.
How will you participate?
We regret any misspellings in the Mass intentions.

NEXT WEEK’S
GOSPEL
ALTAR SERVER SCHEDULE
February 7/8, 2015
5:00 PM
7:30 AM
When it was evening, after sunset, they brought to him all
who were ill or possessed by demons. The whole town
was gathered at the door. He cured many who were sick
with various diseases, and he drove out many demons,
not permitting them to speak because they knew him.
Rising very early before dawn, he left and went off to a
deserted place, where he prayed. Simon and those who
were with him pursued him and on finding him said,
“Everyone is looking for you.” He told them, “Let us go on
to the nearby villages that I may preach there also. For
this purpose have I come.” So he went into their
synagogues, preaching and driving out demons
throughout the whole of Galilee.
REFLECTION QUESTION
Notice that Jesus gives all of us a perfect example.
Jesus does what he needs to do
and then takes time to be in pray.
How often do we set aside quality time for prayer?
Remembrance in Your Will
A remembrance for your parish in your will
is a wonderful way to provide for the future
well-being of your parish community.
Thank you for considering this very special way
of sharing with your parish family.

On leaving the synagogue Jesus entered the house of

mother-in-law lay sick with a fever. They immediately told
him about her. He approached, grasped her hand, and
helped her up. Then the fever left her and she waited on
them.

REPEATED ON WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1:30 P.M. TO 3:00 P.M.
Dr. Laura Dunham
Lent is a season for deep prayer and reflection focused on the Paschal Mystery, penitence, and redemptive
suffering. In this two-hour class, we will explore spiritual and prayer practices that enable us to accompany
Jesus to the cross and beyond. These include journaling, the daily Examen, fasting, walking the labyrinth,
retreats, and forms of prayer and meditation such as Lectio Divina, contemplative and Centering Prayer, the
rosary, and the Stations of the Cross. This class stands alone or may serve as an introduction to the six week
class, "Lent with Mary," which begins February 17/18.

Dr. Laura Dunham
In this six-week class participants will journey through Lent with Mary and with artists, poets, and musicians who
have sought to experience the Paschal Mystery through her eyes. Using journaling, Lectio Divina and other
forms of prayer and meditation, we will accompany Mary, sharing in the sorrow of the Crucifixion and the joy of
the Resurrection.
Instructor: Laura Dunham teaches and writes about Christian spirituality. Author of Path of the Purified Heart:
