Dear Parishioners,

The Irish Invasion! I am delighted to tell you that tomorrow, Monday, my brother Jim and his wife Regina will arrive
from Dublin. Their three children will travel with them. Connor in his late 20s is my special needs nephew, Maeve in
her early 20s studying in medical school and Owen in his late teens, is going into his senior year in high school. It will
be so nice to have them visit, and I know they are looking forward to exploring the area. My nephews and niece all
have red hair so you will know they belong to the Moran family, please say hello. Family indeed is such a special part
of our lives and I feel blessed that I will have these special weeks to just spend me together, enjoy my family and
make new memories.

Congratula ons to Grace Soltes who received the Knights of Columbus scholarship. Grace comes from a wonderful
family, her mom Jeannie is our Pre-K director, and her dad, Bryan is very involved in their volunteering. Grace has
been a catechist here for many years and her two sisters are following in her footsteps. I am very proud of Grace and
wish her well in her new life in college.

Many people have been surprised that the church revitaliza on has gone so well and that all the contractors have
been on me. I teasingly pointed up to heaven and said, “They are afraid of my boss”, but seriously they have not
only been punctual but very professional. It is such a blessing to work with trades people who are both professional
and proud of their work. A big thank you to:

x   Todd Umbel and his team from New Holland Church Furniture who designed, made, and installed our
     beau ful church pews and church furniture.
x   Ma Zahornasky of Artech Church Interiors who coordinated the project.
x   Johnny and his team from John Tiedemann, the liturgical pain ng company for an amazing job on color and
     design.
x   Naerr Hernandez and his staff of K&C Services who buffed, cleaned, and grouted the church les.
x   Kevin Dorlon and his crew from All Seasons LLC who installed our beau ful new entry doors, the molding
     above the sanctuary, extended the sanctuary area, and moved our beloved crucifix over the tabernacle.
x   Bill and his crew from Viking Demoli on for removing the old les in the narthex on an expedited basis.
x   Rich Blaszak from Blaszak Tile & Marble for the beau ful job installing the porcelain les in the narthex.
x   Tom Mezey for restoring and refinishing the Sta ons of the Cross.
x   Dean of Harty Brothers for installing the beau ful runner.
x   Mary Marino, our parishioner for her advice on interior design.

I so appreciate the help and invaluable advice of our parishioners, Fred Fania and Charles Vizzini for their input on
pew design and placement. Fred also coordinated the beau ful le installa on in the narthex and Charles designed
the new lectern. Thanks to Vinnie on his con nuing guidance and assistance with sound and visual ministry and to
those who advised and coordinated especially, Ron Cohen, Joe Perno, Ann-Marie Vizzini and Jodi Galloway. It
certainly takes a village, and our village came worked together and supported wherever the need was. I am sure our
parishioners join me in thanking everyone involved.

    Registra on has begun for St. Luke’s CCD 2022-2023 year! All informa on can be found on the parish
                     website and for your convenience, all registra ons are now online
  Religious educa on programs are staffed mainly by volunteers and volunteers are needed for this coming
  year. Some mes they are “real” teachers who share their talent and me on weekends; more o en they
       are people who enjoy being with children and choose to share their love of our Catholic faith by
    volunteering to be a catechist. Every program director thanks God for the good-hearted people who
                                        answer the call to volunteer.
  Becoming a catechist means becoming part of a team. It means becoming God’s human hands and voice,
 instruments of his peace. The main qualifica ons are openness to God and a willingness to learn and grow
   in faith. God works miracles through ordinary people. Please prayerfully consider joining our team. The
                                           benefits are heavenly!
