FROM THE PASTOR
PASTOR’S DESK:
This week a6b Saint Hugh of Lincoln the Saint Hugh Productions will present “Seussical the Musical“on Saturday at 7:30 and on Sunday at 2:00 in the Auditorium. I managed to take some time out this past week to stop
in and watch a part of their dress rehearsal. All I can say is “WOW!” I was amazed by the talents of those who
are performing and completely taken with the bright and creative scenery and costumes. The music (They
even have a vibraphone!) and the dancing will have your feet tapping in no time. I can’t wait now to see the
complete production and plan to be there this weekend. If you were raised (0r raised their kids)on The Cat in
the Hat or Horton Hears a Who this is the place to be this weekend. So take a few minutes for yourself and
gather your children (no matter how old they are!) and treat yourself to “Seussical the Musical” at Saint
Hugh of Lincoln.
I was also discussing the Holiday Season with Elia, the rectory cook this week. We both feel that of all the
celebrations at this time of the year, Thanksgiving Day is the best. Not only because of the delicious meal and
the tasty treats that appear on the table that day (and for days afterward) but because it is a real family day. Of
all the days it seems to be the least hectic (Christmas), it has no distractions (New Year football) and everyone
contributes (their favorite vegetable or dessert). Afterward, I was thinking about tall those who have no family
or whose means are so depleted that there will be no special treats this year. It saddens me to think that such
people exist right here in our Huntington Station community. But they do, and in larger numbers than you may
think!
What to do??? Saint Hugh Saint Vincent de Paul (SVdeP) and our Outreach program have an answer for
us. The Saint Vincent de Paul Society is already planning their Thanksgiving Basket program and their fully
cooked and served Thanksgiving Dinner which they offer each year in our cafeteria on Thanksgiving Day. It is
an enormous task for them. Each year the number of needy seems to be growing. In the Outreach we are serving mor4e and more families each week. Both SVdeP and the Outreach need your help. Indeed, they cannot do
it without you. Without the resources they cannot fill the baskets for the poor and there will be no Thanksgiving for many who depend on us. So I ask you to dig a little deeper this year and help those who need you. This
week we will be putting out the brown bags again so that you can fill them with food for the Thanksgiving
baskets: a can of vegetables, a bag of potatoes or rice, some dessert items or even some stuffing mix. Whatever you can do to help will be greatly appreciated. But be careful. Please don’t everyone buy cans of cranberry sauce even if they are on sale! One year we were flooded with it – cans and cans of every type! One can
is more than plenty! Try to keep away from perishable goods. Milk goes sour and ice cream melts pretty
quickly!
Whatever you can do to help, your sharing in this important work of the parish will make your Thanksgiving
celebrations all the more fulfilling and provide a cause for a prayer of thanksgiving by those who receive the
fruit of your goodness.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION NEWS 631- 271-6081
Is God calling you to be a catechist?
Our Religious education program is well under way and I’m very thankful for all the wonderful
people who step forward every year and volunteer to share their faith with our children. There’s still a need for substitute catechists to fill in
whenever someone calls out due to emergency or illness.
If you accept and live the Gospel and the teachings of the Church, try to grow in your personal spiritual formation and have a deep love for God,
you would make a great catechist! While classes are in session we also have a number of adults and older teens who monitor the hallways of the
building. If you think you may be able to help, please call or visit the office for more information.

CULTURE OF DEATH
Why is our culture of death afraid to talk about death? Many people like to watch slasher
movies, video games and movies that promote violence, but talk about the death of a baby
through abortion and people are shocked! They say that's violent, I don't care to hear
about it. As a nation we are sticking our heads in the sands of apathy. Please,
God, motivate us to speak out for your unborn babies.
