Question of the Week: If you are a lamb, who are the wolves Jesus sends you out to?
Dear Parishioners of OLM & OLS:
With the passing of our celebration of Independence Day, last Thursday, I am beginning to feel as through it is really vacation time. I am leaving for six days in Wildwood Crest after the 10am Mass today at OLM. I will spend next weekend in Maryland with colleagues with whom I used to collaborate in a national pastors’ training process. It will be pleasant to meet with them for relaxation rather than planning! I’ll be back in the office next Tuesday. I’ll take the remainder of my vacation time the last two weeks of August and the first week of September.
I am looking forward to this time of relaxation, as I am sure most of you are also.
Enjoy and be safe!
My love and my prayers,
Father Jack

We need your help, please!
