From the Pastor's Desk 1/19/2025
Dear Parishioners,
Tomorrow is Inauguration Day. Whatever our political party or leanings, let us take to heart the instruction of Saint Paul to Timothy: “I ask that supplications, prayers, petitions, and thanksgivings be offered for everyone, for…all in authority, that we may lead a quiet and tranquil life in all devotion and dignity. This is good and pleasing to God our savior, who wills everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” (1Tim 2: 1-4) Almighty God, as we come to this time of transition,we commend our country to your merciful care.Give to our President and Vice President,our elected representatives and judicial officials,wisdom and strengthto know and carry out your holy will.Fill them with the love of truth,honesty, and righteousness.May they always rememberthat they are your servantscalled to lead and serve our nation.Grant that officers in every branch of governmentmay be accountable to all the people.Help them seek justice, protect the weak,and lead them in constructing a civilization of love.God bless our nation!Msgr. Gervasio___________________________________________
Chè pawasyen,
Demen se jo envestiti. Kelkeswa pati politik ou oubyen tandans politik ou an nou pran akè pawòl Sen Pòl te di Timote a : « Mwen mande w se pou ou fè lapriyè demand, aksyon gras ak siplikasyon pou…. Sila yo ki genyen otorite, dekwa pou nou ka mennen yon lavi tankil, nan devosyon ak dinite. Bagay sa a bon e li agreyab nan je Bondye sovè nou an, ki vlepou tout moun sove e rive nan konesans laverite a. » (1 Tim 2 : 14)
Bondye Granmèt, nan peryòd tranzisyon sa a ,Nou lage peyi nou nan swen mizèrikòd ou.Bay prezidan ak vis prezidan nou an, reprezantan nou yo ki eli ak tout majistra yo,sajès ak fòs pou yo konnen laveritee pou yo fè volonte Bondye.Plen yo ak renmen laverite, onètete e dwati.Se pou yo toujou sonje yo sesèvitè ki la pou dirije ak sèvi.Pèmèt fonksyònè tout branch nan gouvènmanan vini rekonsab devant tout pèp la.Se pou ede yo chèche lajistis, pwoteje sila yo ki fèb yo, e gide yo nankonstriksyon yon sivilizasyon renmen.Avék afeksyon,
Msgr. Gervasio -

January 16On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court legalized abortion throughout the United States. Although the Dobbs v. Jackson decision by the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, it left the decision on abortion to the states, and our state of New Jersey is one of those which are hostile to unborn children. Our prayer and advocacy are still very needed.
