Page 3 September 15, 2019 READING CATHOLIC COMMUNITY A Note from our Pastor, Fr. Rock In spite of the Town Faire I want to thank all those who were able to attend my Installation Mass last Sunday morning. The weather was perfect! I want to thank the members of the Parish Pastoral Councils who put it all together as well as the Collaborative Staff and parishioners who made this celebration so special. I also want to thank Fr. Victor, Fr. Ed, Fr. Rich, Fr. Jeff from BC and Fr. Jim from BC High who have supported all of us with their ministry. My hat also goes off to Deacons Neil, Matt and Bill for their support. We have a long way to go but together and with the guidance of the Holy Spirit we will succeed. On my part I promise to do all that I can to build up our Reading Catholic Community. On the back cover of the Installation program were the words of the Prophet Jeremiah: “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” ~ Jeremiah 29:11 ~ These words can give us hope! God Bless, Fr. Steve Over 300 came to celebrate at Fr. Steve’s Installation Mass. The photo collage opposite captures the Spirit of the community: joyful smiles, young and old: “surely the presence of the Lord is in this place!” Catechist Training/Enrichment Faith Formation - Grades 1 through 10 Catechist meetings to prepare for the upcoming year CLASSES BEGIN THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 6 are now underway!

    The Benedictine TraditionLives ______________________Z______________________ …in the hearts and through the good works of the Sisters, their benefactors, alumni, oblates, friends, and relatives. Annual Report and Annual Appeal 2011 Benedictine Sisters of Pittsburgh Annual Appeal 2011 Dear Friends and Partners of St. Benedict: Last year about this same time, I wrote to you about how our world is constantly changing, that no matter what our calling, all of us are often challenged to adapt our perspectives and expand our horizons so as to remain vibrant and strong. And never has this been truer for the Benedictine Sisters of Pittsburgh than it is today! To be the best stewards of our resources and to better meet the needs of the people we serve and the Sisters, we have put our property up for sale and we are making plans to build a smaller, greener monastery. Adaptability is built into our monastic tradition. St. Benedict knew that the spiritual tradition he started more than 1500 years ago had to be kept alive with the Gospel spirit. Consequently, the heart of the mission he established is always growing to encompass new things. So we go forward in faith, committed to remaining vibrant and strong by building a new and more efficient home from which our ministries will flow and grow. I invite you to join us in our work today and for the exciting work ahead. With your partnership, we know we can do whatever is necessary to continue our mission of seeking God in community, prayer and ministry. Men, women and children in need are counting on us, and we in turn, are counting on you.

Please join Catholic Charities of Santa Clara County as we unite policy-makers and people of good will to find effective solutions to this injustice. The Campaign to Cut Poverty is about who we are as a region.

Dear Friends of Catholic Charities of Santa Clara County, We are pleased to present our annual report to the community for fiscal year 2007-2008. This was a very important year for us as the groundwork was laid for Catholic Charities to launch the Campaign to Cut Poverty with Step Up Silicon Valley, a coalition we are leading of more than 90 service organizations, corporations and government agencies, whose goal is to cut poverty in half by 2020 in Santa Clara County.

  • Saint Athanasius
    October 6, 2019 Twenty Seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time Father John R. Rushofsky [email protected] Pastor 412 364 8999 Administrator’s Perspective What’s Up? By now you have seen the new Mass schedule that will go into effect on the First weekend of Advent, November 30—December 1. Some of the Masses have remained the same as the former interim schedule, but there are also a few changes. We know that some people will not be particularly thrilled, but these new Mass times reflect what we feel will best serve the needs of the entire grouping. And that brings up two more points. First, it is time for us to begin the process of choosing a new parish name as we move steadily toward our merger date in nine months. We’ll be asking for your input, but there are criteria and guidelines for names we will be permitted to use, so we will be providing that information soon. Please don’t send in suggestions until you’ve seen the parameters. Second, since we are committed to keeping you informed about all the steps we need to take before next July 1, we will soon be making available a timeline for the merger process, with a month by month schedule of everything we need to do. On another topic, some are inquiring about the financial situation of our four parishes. The short answer is: not good. The longer answer is: We will be posting the results of the Saint Athanasius Festival and the Saint Teresa Festival, both of which were quite successful; and we will also post the financial reports of the four parishes so you can see for yourself how our Offertory collections are down.

Roman Catholic Archbishop of Boston My Dear Friends in Christ, Last November we gathered at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross for a magnificent celebration of the Archdiocese of Boston’s Bicentennial. The depth and breadth of our history and the vitality of our local church in this present time were brought forth as we made the commitment to continue building on the foundations established by our predecessors. This annual report shows us that the Archdiocese’s overall financial condition has improved over the last year, continuing the positive trend of recent years. The report also indicates that we face a number of challenges, including an unprecedented number of requests for services for the poor and those who find themselves in a never expected circumstance of need. The economic declines and job losses of the past year have impacted many people.
