SERVICE PROJECT OPPORTUNITY

On Saturday, October 3 at 11 AM, St. Joseph Parish will celebrate the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick, an annual event intended for:
-Those of the faithful whose health is seriously impaired by sickness or old age
-A person facing surgery
-Elderly people who have become notably weakened even though no serious illness is present
-Sick children or people of any age in need of healing
-Those suffering mental or spiritual illness in search of healing in a time of crisis or pain.

A light luncheon will be served for participants after Mass.

Christian Service Opportunity for Confirmation Candidates:
1. (BEFORE MASS) to help and assist the sick and the elderly as they arrive in Church, help set up the reception and food table which begins at 10:30 AM. (30 Minutes)

(Note: Being at Mass is a Catholic Way of Life and does not count as a Christian Service Opportunity)

2. (AFTER MASS) to help and assist the elderly after the mass of the Anointing of the Sick (approxiamtely 12 Noon until 12:30 PM) (30 Minutes)

Since help has to be assured, I ask those who will avail of this opportunity to call Kathy at 973-761-5933 on or before Thursday, October 1.

Please remember that during our next Session which is on October 11, you are already expected to have rendered 2 (two) hours of Christian Service.
