Are You Going On Vacation? Many of our parish families plan to get away for some summer fun and relaxation in the next few months. We pray for that your vacation time will be safe and a source of many happy memories. However, please don’t take your parish offering with you. Each summer the parish struggles to juggle the bills as Sunday offerings decrease significant-ly. If you find that you tend to forget your envelope more often during the less structured weeks of summer, please consider our electronic giving program. Go to http://thestmaryparish.org/ways-to-give/. It’s simple! It’s safe! And it keeps God at the top of your giving list even when you are away!

The Sister Isaac Center Mary Ann Kotas, Director
Although the Sister Isaac Center is a ministry of the Basilica Shrine of St. Mary, we are helped by many other neighboring churches. St. Mark, Immaculate Conception, St. Brendan and St. Therese parishes are home to many of our volunteers . St Mark supports us generously with funds each quarter; we are able to give extra help to many families in need. Their school moms organize clothing drives for us; they even help with the sorting and shelving of the items; they organize drives to help us with food and gifts for families at the holidays. The Columbiettes are busy contributing all year long - bags of hygiene items, holiday baskets and more. Immaculate Conception runs a Souper Bowl party each year, re-sulting in hundreds of cans of soup for us. St. Therese organized a huge diaper drive for us a couple months ago. Immaculate Conception and St. Therese also provide us with funds. We have volunteers that are members of Grace United Methodist, Little Chapel on the Boardwalk Presbyterian, Goshen Baptist, and St. Nicho-las Greek Orthodox to name a few. Little Chapel gives us funds and they often bring in donations of clothing and household items as well. The Agape Circle from Grace United often brings in cash donations, brand new items of household goods and year after year they bring in brand new toys for us to share in our Christmas room. The United Meth-odist women recently invited me to visit and presented me with a check.
This is just a sampling of the ways we are supported throughout the church communities - I surely have not named them all. These are all relationships that were built through the years since we were founded by Sr. Isaac. We are blessed to have their continuing support as we carry on with our mission to serve needy men, women and their families by offer-ing a hand up, not just a hand out. Special Need of the Week: - Cereal and umbrellas to share with our guests. Also, during the summer weeks, we see many more children coming in along with their parents. Our supply of small toys is running low and we’d like to have more to be able to share with them. The Sister Isaac Center’s last date for the summer is Tuesday July 31. We will then be closed until September (exact date to be an-nounced). To contact The Sister Isaac Center, please call us during normal hours at 762-5491, ext. 135. RCIA (Beverly Setz) - RCIA will begin again in the fall. For more information, you may leave a message at 762-5491, ext. 121
