Pastor's Message for the Week of January 29


Oops! Last week was again so busy, I forgot to write a Pastor’s Message. Actually, I was in Buffalo, visiting my dad in the hospital. Thanks for your prayers, as he awaits an angioplasty procedure. Our secretary and receptionist for the last 29 years Pat Harter is resigning February 29. What will we do without Pat? We wish her well, and will need a great person to replace her. If you’re bi-lingual and have what it takes, contact Fr. Jud. 31 people attended CCOP’s (Camden Churches Organized for People) 2-hour mini-training on Saturday, Jan. 21 at St. Joe’s. We’re working on finding ways to reduce the violence in Camden. Good news, our weekly collections are now up 24% over last year. But we’re aiming for 100%, to be able to pay all our bills and ensure the parish stays alive and vibrant. Seven of us went on the March for Life in Washington last Monday, January 23. We’ve been recognized by various people for our Consistent Life Ethic. We protest not just against abortion, but against war, violence, etc. Don’t forget this Saturday, Feb. 4 is our SuperBowling for St. Anthony's bowling gala at Laurel Lanes. Should be lots of fun! It’s $25 for bowling and food from 6:15 p.m. to 8:15 p.m. Click on the tab at the top of the left margin for more information. Starting on Feb. 10 we will offer a course on Non-Violence Peacemaking, in English, for eight Friday evenings as part of our JustFaith venture. It’s intense, and lasts 2-1/2 hours, but is well worth it. Contact Kristen for details. We still have no volunteers (21 years or older with a good driving record and current license) to drive people to Sunday Mass in our parish van. Please call me at 856-963-5884 if you can drive. If you have other suggestions on how to reach out to others, please let me know.
 
 
 
 

 

Peace and all good,

Mensaje del Párroco para la semana 29 de enero

 

¡Oops! La semana pasada fui tan ocupado, yo olvidé escribir Mensaje del Párroco. Actualmente, estuve en Buffalo, visitando a mi papá en el hospital, Gracias por sus oraciones, mientras el espera un angioplasty. Nuestra secretaria y receptionista por los últimos 29 años, Pat Harter, está jubilandose el 29 de febrero. ¡Extrañaremos de ella! Si está interesado en ese trabajo y si es bilingüe, llame al Padre Jud. 31 personas asistieron en el entrenamiento contra la violencia, hecho por CCOP (Iglesias de Camden Organizadas para el Pueblo) el sábado 21 de enero en la parroquia San José. Buena noticia, la colecta semanal ha subido 24% sobre el año pasado. Pero queremos 100%, para pagar todas las cuentas y asegurar que la parroquia esté viva. Siete de nosotros fuimos en la Marcha pro Vida en Washington el lunes, 23 de enero. Personas nos reconocen por nuestro mensaje contra no solamente el aborto sino también contra la guerra, la violencia, etc. No olvide el sábado, 4 de febrero es nuestro “SuperBowling” para recaudar fondos para la iglesia en Laurel Lanes. ¡Estará muy divertido! Cuesta $25 para bowling y comida de 6:15 p.m. hasta 8:15 p.m. Toque el tab en la parte izquierda de esta página para más información. Lee el mensaje arriba en ingles para información sobre un taller de No-Violencia. Todavía, nadie ha llamado para ser un chofer voluntario (21 años o mayor, buen chofer con licencia corriente) para llevar personas a la misa los domingos en el van de la parroquia. Por favor llámame as 856-963-5884. Si tiene otras sugerencias como evangelizar, notifícame.

Paz y bien,

Padre Jud Weiksnar, ofm
Párroco

Letter from Most Reverend James V. Johnston, Jr., Bishop of Springfield-Cape Girardeau, Missouri:

May God's blessings be with you.  I write to express my deep gratitude for your generous spirit and the donation made by the people of St. Anthony of Padua parish to assist with the response to the tragedy in Joplin.  The scale of the destruction from the recent EF5 tornado there is almost incomprehensible.  But, as is often the case, facing suffering together brings out the good in our hearts.

As the Catholic Church joins with others in the community to respond to the many needs, your generous gift will enable us to provide much needed assistance.  Thank you for such a kind gesture of compassion.  Please continue to keep us, especially those most affected by this crisis, in your prayers.

(On May 29, we took up a 2nd collection and sent $1,874.75 to help the Adams family in Joplin, Missouri, and their church, St. Mary's.)
