Dear friends in the Lord: On May 18 and 19, our archdiocese will collect an offering for Aid to the Church in Central and Eastern Europe. From 1922 to 1991 the Ukrainian people lived under a repressive communist government that restricted both religious and cultural practice. In that time, Ukrainians faced multiple wars that left a suffering people in their wake. Still today, Ukraine is rebuilding from this difficult past. Eastern Ukraine especially suffered for many years as a stronghold of communism. The Catholic faith was illegal or restricted, so atheism grew stronger and family values deteriorated. Today, the Church is working to rebuild these values. Some women there find themselves in unplanned pregnancies. They believe that abortion might be their only answer. But, you have given these women an option to protect life. Your generosity has made it possible to create two homes for single mothers where they can live with their children. They receive help with child care and employment. You have not only helped them choose life, but also gave them tools to create stable living and working situations for themselves and their children. I am counting on your usual generosity again this year. Your support is vital as they bring new life into the world. When you contribute, you become an instrument of peace and join with Catholics around the world in solidarity with them. If you would like more information, visit www.usccb.org/ccee. Thank you for your help to restore the Church and build the future in Central and Eastern Europe. With prayerful best wishes, I am, Faithfully in Christ, +Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan Archbishop of New York

UNCLE AL’S THRIFT SHOP Did you get to the shop in the last few weeks to take advantage of the one-week sales? If so, you know that Uncle Al’s really knows how to feature sales that make you smile all the way home. Of course, it doesn't have to be a special sale to be a bargain. Recently, there was a lovely brand-new (with tags) leather handbag that was $9.50. Dress shoes, never worn, were $8.50. And several (famous label) men’s shirts at unbelievable bargain prices. It’s not just clothing either — jigsaw puzzles still wrapped, games— great for all these rainy days, dolls, stuffed toys (large and small). It’s just plain fun to browse through the shop; new things are added all the time, so it’s never boring. Come on in — you will be greeted by one of our friendly volunteers. Have clothing or other items to donate? Bring them in any day Uncle Al’s is open: Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 10:00am to 4:00pm. And don’t forget to tell your friends and relatives about this nifty thrift shop at 3275 Franklin Avenue in Millbrook! All proceeds benefit St. Joseph-Immaculate Conception Church.
