Light it Up - A Tree of Hope and Joy

People are invited to sponsor a light in memory of someone deceased or in honor of a living person. The project requests a contribution of $ 6 per light. All of the names will be inscribed in the " Light it Up - A Tree of Hope and Joy " book, which will be on display. Each donor receives a card of acknowledgement. The Tree will be lit on Saturday, November 30th after the 4:30 pm mass, with music and refreshments and will remain lit through the Christmas season.

RENEW Fall Season
Please consider joining a small faith-sharing group. The groups will meet once a week for 6 weeks staring the week of October 13th. Renew groups generally involve 5 to 10 people. Faith sharing is not discussion, nor problem solving, nor scripture study. Each person shares at the level where he or she feels comfortable. The groups can choose from a variety of topics and meeting formats. All are welcome. We share our faith to help each other see God in our lives. “Only where God is seen does life truly begin. Only when we meet the living God in Christ do we know what life is. We are not some casual and meaningless product of evolution. Each of us is the result of a thought of God. Each of us is willed, each of us is loved, each of us is necessary.” (Pope Benedict 16th) Please contact Tom Babcock at 732-530-9282 if you have any questions or would like to sign up for a group.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED for Children's Liturgy of the Word
 Who will bring Jesus' message of love and peace, the WORD, to the children? If you have musical, talent we need you too! The children sing a song at the beginning and also sing the Psalm and Gospel Acclamation. It takes quite a few volunteers to facilitate this worthy endeavor! Please consider signing up to help out. There are lesson plans available at our website. If interested please contact Annie DiDomenico at VBS@NativityChurchNJ.org Thanks so much. |

We pray that this ministry will bring all those who receive these prayer blankets comfort, peace and hope. No skill is necessary, just a prayerful and willing heart!
