MISSION SUNDAY
Next Sunday
is World Mission Sunday, a day all of us are asked to support the
missionary efforts of the Church throughout the world. We do this by praying
for the success of our missionaries and by contributing to support their
work. We invite you to participate in this effort by donating to the Mission
Sunday appeal. Please use the envelopes provided for this appeal next
weekend
PASTORAL
COUNCIL
 We
have begun the nominating process for new members of our Pastoral
Council. This year, we will be electing four members to our Pastoral Council
for a two year term beginning January 1, 2019. Application forms are
available in the Book Room and will be accepted through November 4, 2018.
Voting will begin November 18th and conclude December 2nd.
Any member of the parish, age 16 and older, with a few exceptions, eligible
to run for a seat on the Pastoral Council. We invite you to seriously
consider serving on this important advisory body in our Parish.
PRIESTHOOD SUNDAY
On
October 28th Catholics will celebrate Priesthood Sunday, a
day set aside to celebrate the importance of the gift of priesthood in the
life of the Church and for us to reflect on the ministry that our priests
share with us - when we gather at the Table of the Lord, and when we call on
them in our times of need. Consider sharing a personal note or a card of
thanks with them. We pray that our young people will be inspired by the
ministry and witness of our priests and that their hearts be open to hearing
and responding to God’s call. More information on priesthood can be found at

FALL
FUND RAISER
 Our
Eighth Annual Clambake/Steak Bake/Autumn Raffle will take place on
Saturday, October 27th, beginning after the 5:30 Mass in our
upper hall. Raffle tickets are now available at the back of the Church.
All parishioners are asked to pick up their envelope with Raffle tickets,
as this will save us the cost of mailing them to everyone.
This year we have a new caterer and are able to lower the prices and
improve the quality of our food. Dinner tickets are now available
after all the Masses at the main entrance to the church and in the hall
after the 10:00 Mass. They can also be purchased during the week at the
rectory during business hours. Ticket prices are: Clambake - $30, Steak-bake
- $35, extra dozen clams - $10. In addition to great food, there will be
plenty of refreshments, a basket auction, split raffles, and much more.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS to help with this project: to
set up, clean up, bake, and help in other ways. Please sign up in the
church’s main entrance to help us out. We look forward to seeing everyone on
October 27th.
PROGRAM BOOK
Again this year, we are printing a program book for our
Fall Fund-Raiser. Parishioners, Parish Organizations, and businesses are
invited to advertise or send their greetings showing support for our Parish.
An ad can be placed in the book for as little as $10. Ad forms are in
everyone’s ticket envelope. Additional forms are available at the back of
the church. Everyone is invited to participate.

Over the past several weeks I have placed an announcement in the
bulletin asking for volunteers to run for a seat on our Parish Pastoral Council.
As of today, we have received no applications.
Our Pastoral Council is the most important advisory group I have in the
parish. The Pastoral Council advises me on all aspects of parish life, from
making up Mass schedules to setting priorities for property repairs and
improvements. Every year we elect four members and I appoint one member for a
two year term. Two members of the Council must be from the Lithuanian community
and two members must be from the non-Lithuanian community. They can be
re-elected once, and then are ineligible for one year.
This year, two members are ineligible to run for another term. Also, I was
unable to appoint a member last year, as those I approached would not accept the
appointment. I am sure that there are at least five members of our parish who
would be willing to serve on the council. The application process is easy and
application forms are available in the Book Room. We would like all applications
to be submitted by Sunday, November 4th.
It is easy to sit back and watch, or to complain and criticize. It takes
effort and commitment to become involved in the life of the parish. Being able
to make a difference and be involved in Parish Life is a rewarding experience
and worth the effort that goes into it. I invitie you to consider serving on the
Parish Pastoral Council.
God
Bless ! Fr. Joe Bacevice

HURRICANE FLORENCE AND 2018 CALAMITIES
This weekend and next
weekend, we will accept donations for the 2018 Calamities as requested by
the National Bishops’ Conference. This money will be used to assist in the
recovery from the devastation brought about by Hurricane Florence and other
anticipated calamities. Envelopes are at the entrances to the Church.
ALL SOULS DAY and CANDLES
 Friday,
November 2nd, is the Feast of All Souls,
the day we remember our dead. Three traditional All Souls Day Masses will be
offered: 7:30am (EN), 12:00 noon (EN) and 7:00pm (LT). Following the evening Mass we will have the traditional
Lithuanian All Souls procession and prayers for the dead. We invite the
families who have lost a loved
one since last November 2nd, to participate in the
commemoration. An All
Souls Day envelope is included with the offering envelopes with space to
include the names of the dead you want to be remembered in the Masses.
In addition, we have ALL SOULS DAY CANDLES, which can be
inscribed with the name of the deceased you want remembered. These candles
will burn for 5 days beginning on November 2nd. The donation for
each All Souls Day candle is $5. For your convenience, candle request
envelopes can be found at the church entrances. We invite everyone to
participate.
