IMPORTANT: Please be kind enough to contact Lynn at the Rectory if you would like your loved ones removed from or added to our Prayer List . RESPECT LIFE… —The weekend to return your baby bottle filled with pocket change for the four Life Centers on Long Island has passed. This year, we have experienced a great reduction in the number of bottles returned on time. If you have neglected to return your bottle, it is not too late! There will be a white crate placed at each door to the church for the next two weekends. In addition, you may turn your bottle, during business hours, to the Rectory, the School, Religious Ed., and Parish Social Ministry Office. Please be mindful of the fact that the Life Centers lose $1 for each unreturned bottle. Over the years, the parishioners of Our Lady of Peace have been generous in supporting the work of the Life Center, a pregnancy care center with four locations (Deer Park, Hempstead, Massapequa & Riverhead). We thank you for your donations of baby clothes, diapers, and infant formula. However, there remains a number of mothers and babies needing assistance, counseling and help, especially in these tough economic times. With our staff of volunteers, we are ready and willing to meet these needs with compassionate hearts and unconditional love, but we need your help to ensure that we have the resources to continue to provide the level of service necessary. The Life Center is supported entirely by charitable gifts from you; our baby bottle drive is the largest fund-raiser. Also, and most importantly, please pray often for God’s blessing on the mission of the Life Centers, and on the precious women, men and children we serve. Thank You! LOST AND FOUND Any lost and found articles will now be in one receptacle in the Martha Mary Room in the church. 4 419 MARRIED 50 YEARS OR MORE… TIME, TALENT & TREASURE This Week’s Stewardship of Time and Talent In gratitude for God’s gifts of time and talent to use, we gratefully salute our RCIA Team. This spring, couples that have been married fifty years or more will be honored at liturgies on Sunday, April 19th at the Church of St. Lawrence the Martyr in Sayville and on Sunday, April 26th at the Church of Maria Regina in Seaford. Both liturgies will begin at 2:30PM. Couples may register for ONE liturgy. Registration forms and complete instructions can be obtained at Our Lady of Peace Rectory. Registration must be received by the Office of Worship a few weeks before the liturgies, therefore please complete the form and return it to our Rectory by April 1st if you are going to the April 19th liturgy and by April 7th for the April 26th liturgy. There will be additional celebrations in the fall for those who may find that more convenient. If you have any questions you may call (516) 678-5800, Ext. 207.
