PARISH PRAYERS FOR SICK LIST A NEW BEGINNING FOR NEW YEAR UPDATED PRAYER LIST
Since January 1, 2022, we have been compiling a new list of names for our parish PRAYERS FOR THE SICK LIST. All current names will be removed. If you have a seriously or even chronically ill loved one who would like to be placed on our parish list so they can be prayed for each week, please contact our parish office and speak with Fran Amendola, our parish secretary. (845-735-7405)
PLEASE PROVIDE A CAR
FOR OUR AUGUST RELIEF PRIEST
FR. STEPHEN ANNAN
Our parish is pleased to welcome back a priest who was well received by our parishioners the last time he was with us, back before the Covid. We are so very fortunate to having Father Stephen with us this August, as many of our international priests are unable to obtain VISAs at this time. In order for Father to fully exercise his priestly ministry while with us, he needs the use of a car.
In the past, we have been very fortunate that one of our parishioners had stepped forward and generously allowed father the use of a car and I am hoping that, this August, we have another generous heart who will do the same. How about you? If you are able and willing to help Father this August, please contact Msgr. Nevin and let him know.
GARDEN MINISTRY TO HOST...
St. Aedan's Parish Spring Clean-up Day
The beautiful gardens of St. Aedan’s are maintained by our Garden Ministry. If you admire the Church gardens, this is a perfect opportunity to take part in their preservation. To make the Church property even more stunning, we are asking adult and PREP student volunteers to participate in a clean-up day on Saturday, May 21, between 9:30 am – 1:00 pm. We will meet behind the 11 Reld building. Tasks will include cleaning up winter garden beds, planting summer flowers, removing debris and tree limbs/ branches from around the forest perimeter, and cleaning the white fence. The town will pick up green refuse in 2-3 weeks. PREP students can earn service hours. If you can help for even an hour, that will be much appreciated!
Please call Chris Wilson at 914 261-6635 (cell) if you have questions or would like to volunteer. We look forward to seeing you on May 21st!

POPE CONSECRATED RUSSIA AND UKRAINE TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY
Friday, March 25th, the Feast of the Annunciation, our Holy Father consecrated and entrusted Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary at 5:00p.m. Rome time (12PM EDT). Cardinal Dolan joined in that consecration from Saint Patrick’s Cathedral immediately prior to the Noon Mass.
The consecration in the Cathedral took place before the Ukrainian Cross which has been residing in the Cathedral for the last two weeks. This special cross, which has travelled around the world, has become a symbol of hope and trust in the Lord during this time of unspeakable horror and tragedy that has been unfolding in Ukraine. If you’re by the Cathedral in the next few days, please stop in to visit the cross and say a prayer for the suffering people in Ukraine.

Once Again, any email from Msgr like this = Fraud:
I got this myself, allegedly from Msgr Nevin:
Hello, how are you doing? I have an assignment I need you to do for me immediately. Let me know if you are available. So kindly respond back via email.
here's another one from today (12/4)!Hello, How are you doing?
I need a favor from you, email me as soon as you get this message.
May God continue to bless the joy of our fellowship as you seek to be faithfully to my calling
Rev. Msgr. Emmet
Pastor.
Another parishioner reported getting one that requested gift cards be purchased for helping out with some special project...
Key things to look for in a email like this - who does it "say" it is coming from, and where is it actually coming from.
The email says it is from "Rev. Msgr. Emmet R. Nevin" - Monsignor has no emails that say that; he never strings all the titles together.
The email return address in this case says:[officemail6515@gmail... and the new one RectorEpiscopal@ ... this one doesn't even have the right denomination]
If you are not sure, call the Rectory and confirm any inquiries - especially if it seems like someone is requesting money or 'gift cards' ... In most email programs, if you simply move your cursor over the name of the person sending you the email ("mouse-over"), it will show you in the bottom left corner of your screen the 'actual' place / person sending the email. (Though, the new format from my Optimum account seems to have removed that feature.)

Prayer to the Virgin Mary for our ProtectionO Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope.
We entrust ourselves to you,
Health of the Sick.
At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain, with steadfast faith.
You, Our Lady of New York,
know what we need.
We are certain that you will provide, so that, as you did at Cana of Galilee,
joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial.
Help us, Mother of Divine Love,
to conform ourselves to the Father’s will
and to do what Jesus tells us:
He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us,
through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen.We seek refuge under your protection,
O Holy Mother of God.
Do not despise our pleas – we who are put to the test – and deliver us from every danger,
O glorious and blessed Virgin.
PRAYER FOR THE PEOPLE OF UKRAINE and RUSSIA“My heart aches greatly… And now I would like to appeal to everyone, believers and non-believers alike. Jesus taught us that the diabolical senselessness of violence is answered with God’s weapons, with prayer and fasting. May the Queen of Peace preserve the world from the madness of war.” Pope Francis, February 23,2022
God of peace and justice,
we pray for the people of Ukraine today.
We pray for peace and the laying down of weapons.
We pray for all those who fear for tomorrow,
that Your Spirit of comfort would draw near to them.
We pray for those with power over war or peace, for wisdom, discernment and compassion to guide their decisions.
Above all, we pray for all Your precious children, at risk and in fear,
that You would hold and protect them.
We pray in the name of Jesus, the Prince of Peace.
AmenArchbishop Justin Welby
Archbishop Stephen Cottrell
