Week of June 1 2014
A Word from Father Sam
Our receptionist, Mr Davide Capone, is moving on and after
seven years at the front desk is going to explore new horizons. We wish Davide every success and many blessings as
he explores new endeavours. We will miss his sense of
humour, his technical computer skills, his gentile manner and
his sharing of movie trivia with me. We pray God’s blessings
with his new career choices and I know we’ll stay in touch.
As our school year winds down many of us head to the cottages on the weekend so please be careful driving (no drinking and driving). Our bulletin will be printed until the last
week of June. Special announcements will be printed on the
reverse side of the mass intention sheet during July and
August. During July and August the office will be closed on
Mondays.
Have a wonderful week and after this horrible winter let’s
not complain about the summer heat (if it really comes).
Please Print Clearly
When filling out donation or mass envelopes please make
sure to print your information clearly on the front. Neatly
printing your information will assure we correctly record
your donations and mass requests.

What is RCIA
If you have found yourself asking questions for which you
have no answers, consider joining others like you on a journey of faith called the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults.
The RCIA is the process by which adults join the Catholic
Church. It uses Scripture, the tradition of the Catholic
Church, prayer and service to help a person reflect on his or
herown journey of faith.
It is designed to allow a person to explore membership in the
Catholic community, and in our case, the local Church of
Holy Rosary.
Who is this process for?
This process is for the unbaptized who wish to become
Catholic, for those baptized in another faith who wish to
become Catholic, and for those baptized as infants in the
Catholic Church who never received any formal religious
education in the Catholic Church.
If interested in finding out more please feel free to call Holy
Rosary Church and ask for:

ASCENSIONE DEL SIGNORE
La Parola di Padre Sam
Church Office Summer Hours
Il nostro ricezionista, il signor Davide Capone, ci lascia dopo
sette anni presso la ricezionesta andando ad esplorare nuovi
orizzonti. Auguriamo a Davide ogni successo e molte benedizioni, mentre egli esplora nuovi impegni. Ci mancheranno il
suo senso dell'umorismo, le sue doti tecniche informatiche, i
suoi modi gentili e la sua condivisione di film trivia con me.
Preghiamo benedizioni di Dio con le sue nuove scelte di carriera e so che resteremo in contatto.
July: Tuesday – Friday 9:00am – 7:00pm
August: Tuesday to Friday 9:00am – 4:00pm
Mentre il nostro anno scolastico sta’finendo molti di noi ci
dirigiamo verso il cottage al fine settimana quindi per favore

intenzione di massa nei mesi di luglio e agosto. Nei mesi di

speriamo verra).

Grazie e Addio
Colgo l'occasione per dire addio a tutti nella comunità della
Chiesa del Santo Rosario. Sono molto grato per l'opportunità
di servire i meravigliosi parrocchiani della chiesa e porterò
tanti dolci ricordi di tutti voi con me. Vi ringrazio per la
gentilezza e la pazienza che mi avete dimostrato nel corso
degli ultimi sette anni e spero che vi ho servito bene.
A tutti il personale, i volontari e parrocchiani di Santo Rosario
vi auguro buon proseguimento al tuo lavoro. Possano le vostre
vite essere benedette con la felicità, buona salute e,
soprattutto, l'amore.
Cordiali saluti,
Davide Capone
