"But from the beginning of creation,
God made them male and female.
For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother
and be joined to his wife,
and the two shall become one flesh.
So they are no longer two but one flesh.
Therefore what God has joined together,
no human being must separate."
My dear friends,
Today, our Archdiocese celebrates the Feast of the Dedication of Saint Patrick's Cathedral - Happy Feast Day!
May I strongly urge all of us to VOTE NO on NY STATE PROPOSITION 1 called the ERA (Equal Rights Amendment) and to spread the word to family, friends and neighbors.
Our New York State Catholic Bishops have been writing about the serious problems of this amendment that is being presented one way on the surface, but will have consequences that are very problematic in its details such as enshrining abortion up until birth in our New York State Constitution, allowing children to make life-altering medical decisions without parental consent and it may loosen age-appropriate restrictions for the young and seniors.
Please see the flier below for more details.
I have been meaning to share the sad news that on September 23rd, Fr. Thumma's extended family in India lost a 15 year old. His grandnephew took ill just a few days before he died. Our parish's condolences to Fr. Thumma and to his family on such a young and sudden loss. We will pray for the repose of Ashrith Reddy at all the Masses this weekend.
Thank you to the Parish Council for hosting Coffee and Donuts last weekend, as well as to the Knights of Columbus for serving after the Sensory Mass. Thank you to Emily Theisen for coordinating this wonderful and needed Mass.
Soon I hope to have a sign-up portal for those who would like to volunteer in our parish. Usually when asked for ways to help out, in the moment an exact project slips my mind, but this may help us connect parishioners looking to serve with areas that need to support.
Congratulation to our parishioner and student Olivia Stella on the Ursuline cereal drive!! Thank you to Mrs. Debbie Bracken and others for assisting with the collection!
Why do we stand and witness on the Life Chain this Sunday?
May we realize the full magnitude of abortion in our land. Each number stands for a life, and the profound impact that has occurred on the child's mother, father, the doctor and nurses and all involved for what was neglected in properly welcoming and caring for this gift of God and what was done to cause an abortion.
NPR reports just over a million abortions in our country in 2023 and in New York State US News and World Report mentions 131,440 in 2023 - about 10k abortions a month. As we seek to be a spiritual field hospital to our fellow men and women, this is the reality first and foremost that needs to be addressed in renewing a civilization of love. We seek to follow Jesus in love of God and love of neighbor.
Now is also the time for people to seek God's Mercy and renewed peace in their lives.
I am scheduled for the 5:30pm Vigil Mass tonight, as well as the 9am and 12noon Sunday Masses. Fr. Thumma will celebrate the 7:30am and 10:30am Sunday Masses.
This weekend visit the Eucharistic Miracle Exhibit in the lower church! Thank you Mrs. Laura Covais, CRE of Religious Ed, and Mrs. JoAnn Douglass, for brining it to IHM and setting it all up.
This Sunday a class of 8th grade Religious Ed Confirmation students will be selling baked good to raise money for a charity. Each class hopes to do it on a monthly rotation.
I look forward to my uncle and aunt, both retired US State Department employees, who will be visiting later in the week for a few days - please welcome Kevin and Marilyn Connors if you see them on Thursday evening, Friday or Saturday morning!
Next weekend we will take up a second collection to assist in recovery after Hurricane Helene.
By the way, Ian Mendoza did such great work promoting the seminary collection last week, and the fruits of his work were so effective, I am sure the archdiocese will be calling to ask him to work a day each week in the development office!
;)
A blessed Respect Life Sunday to all!

Sunday, October 6, 2024 | Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time | Mark 10:2-16
Friends, in our Gospel, Jesus defines the fundamental sacredness of marriage. I’m convinced that the deep sacramental and religious meaning of marriage—even within the Church—has been, in recent years, dramatically compromised. We say that marriage is a vocation, but do we mean it?
We can look at human sexual relationships at a number of different levels. Two people can come together purely for physical pleasure, for economic reasons, or for psychological companionship. And we might witness two people coming together out of authentic love.
But none of these levels is what the Bible means by marriage. When I was doing parish work, I would invariably ask young couples, “Why do you want to get married in church?” Most would say something like, “We love each other.” But I said, “Well, that’s no reason to get married in church.” Usually, they looked stunned. But I meant it.
You come to church to be married before God and his people when you are convinced that your marriage is not, finally, about you; that it is about God and about serving God’s purposes; that it is, as much as the priesthood of a priest, a vocation, a sacred calling.
Bishop Robert Barron

Thank You to the Parish for your Contributions to the Cereal Effect!
My parents and I picked up the cereal boxes, with the help of Mrs. Debbie Bracken, from the Christ the King altar, and transported them to Ursuline this morning. In total, the parish contributed a staggering 98 boxes to the Cereal Effect! I was touched and impressed by the dedication of the parishioners.
This astounding contribution would not have been possible Mrs. Tormey without your support and patience throughout the entire process. It was through your consistent communication and dedication to facilitating the parish's involvement that I was able to reach so many people, and the Ursuline School will be able to help many more as a result! IHM's compassion for the needs of others is truly admirable, and I could not be more grateful. On behalf of myself, my supervisors Riya Buddhavarapu ('26) and Caralyn LoConte ('25), and the entire TUS Cereal Effect committee, I would like to thank you and the parish for your participation in this year's Cereal Effect food drive.

On May 9, 2024, the 2025 Jubilee of Hope was announced by Pope Francis. It will run from December 24, 2024 to January 6, 2026. Holy doors will be opened at St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican, the Cathedral of St. John Lateran, the Papal Basilica of St. Mary Major and the Papal Basilica of St. Paul Outside-the-Walls.
The Holy Father also gave indications that, in all the cathedrals of the world, diocesan bishops would celebrate the Eucharist as a solemn opening of the jubilee year. However, unlike the Jubilee of Mercy of 2016, local dioceses will not have a holy door, but the papal bull does encourage local pilgrimages to cathedrals and other sacred places where indulgences may be obtained.
The office of family life will continue to provide Jubilee 2025 resources on their website at: https://archny.org/ministries-and-offices/family-life/.
Download the Jubilee 2025 app at: https://www.iubilaeum2025.va/en/applicazione.html which is available in multiple languages.
