We follow Jesus Christ in the Catholic tradi on of worship, community and service to each other.
PASTOR’S MESSAGE
Pristine Churches
Our two churches are the oldest, territorial churches in Hoboken. Our
Lady of Grace is the oldest and the mother church. As the Catholic
population swelled, a second parish was opened on the Jersey City
border. The remaining three churches are technically ethnic parishes
though today any one may attend any church. OLG is one of the
largest churches in the country and one of the top five in the state of
New Jersey. When it was completed in 1878, it was the largest in the
state. It is amazing to behold. Through the years, work has been
done. In the 1990’s the pastor painted the church and created the
blue ceiling with stars. However, the roof needed work and Msgr.
Herbster, my predecessor, raised $500,000 to put on a new slate roof, which should last 100 years.
Since I became pastor we have addressed smaller projects to refresh the church. The
Finance Council has been asking to address the entire church.
Thanks to a family foundation grant, we are beginning to paint the church starting with
the ceiling. After several bids and the assistance of the Property Management Office of
the Archdiocese, we have contracted with Sumberac Painting and Plastering. They will
use spot scaffolding so we can continue to worship regularly every weekend. At times,
we will have to adjust our seating. It will take months for this to be completed. But it
will be worth the wait. We are using the same colors.
Since we are completing the parish center work and funding, last Easter we started our
Church Restoration Fund. This Christmas our gift to the parish will be to continue to raise funds for church
restoration. We are also addressing work on St. Joseph Church and I will discuss this in another bulletin.
Thank you for your generosity. Please consider your Sacrificial Giving each week in the first collection.
Peace,
Fr. Alex Santora
COME TO NOVEMBER FIRESIDE CHATS
We continue our Wednesday evening Fireside Chats sponsored by our young adults and open to all parishioners. Please come to the OLG Rectory at 7:30 PM. This week’s topic is “How are we Sinners? I try to
live a good life”. Some gather for Mass in the Chapel at 7 PM. Please check p. 7 of this bulletin for the
month’s schedule.
DONATE TO THE NOVEMBER SHELTER COLLECTION
Each November, we hold our annual collection for the Hoboken Shelter. They recently served their 2 millionth meal. Located at Third and Bloomfield, the Shelter serves hot meals, counsels for jobs and transitions to permanent housing. We cannot do this alone but by supporting the Shelter we can live out our corporal works of mercy. Next week’s bulletin will contain an envelope for you to make your donation.
2015 MASS BOOKS ARE NOW OPEN
A church tradition invites people to offer a Mass for a loved one or an intention. This is both for living and
deceased. So you can offer a Mass for the anniversary of parents, or someone’s birthday, or the recovery
of a sick person. We have living Mass cards for these intentions. Most people remember a deceased loved
one. Please come to either rectory or mail in your requests.
TODAY IS THE DEADLINE TO ORDER 2015 MISSALS
We are accepting orders for the 2015 Missals, which contain all the readings and prayers for the Sunday
Masses. Complete order form with your payment. $5 English; $8 Spanish. Today, November 2, is the
deadline to order
HELP CLEAN OLG CHURCH
We need volunteers to help clean OLG Church on Saturday, Nov. 15th, 10am - 1pm. Sign-up sheets are on
the church tables. Please enter from the ramp side of the church. For more info., contact Megan Moffit.

HELP OUR MARINE
Marine Captain Nicholas DeGregorio has returned
home. He was very grateful for the three large
boxes of items we mailed to him
and his colleagues. Thank you
for your generosity. He is living in
Hoboken and worshipping with
us. He has a request. There is a
White House petition his Marines
have created to honor our troops.
Currently there are 1,500 service
members in Iraq and thousands of others in the
Persian Gulf supporting the fight against ISIS. And
yet, there is no campaign medal for these brave
men and women, as is customary. It is unfortunate
that these warriors' efforts are being ignored. If any
of our church members would like to vote on our
petition to have a medal created for these great
Americans who are away from their families and in
harm's way, they can visit this link: https://
