An Act of Spiritual Communion
My Jesus,
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.

Thanksgiving Craftsfor Nursing Homes
This Thanksgiving we will be trying something different!
Usually we gather in the cafeteria on a Saturday afternoon with a large group of parishioners to make crafts for nursing homes. Because of COVID, we cannot do that. So, we will try making crafts at home! I have ordered a variety of simple
Thanksgiving crafts. Most are peel and stick, some need a glue gun, others are
coloring/scratch activities.

Please call or email Maureen at 914-946-9334 or email

Please put your donation in the collection baskets or drop off at the rectory in an envelope labeled "Thanksgiving Baskets” by Monday, Nov. 23.
Your generosity during this challenging time is greatly appreciated! -
