Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, to you we turn in humble prayer. Look with favor upon all young people, bearers of hope for the Church and the world.
Jesus Christ, the companion of youth and young adults, bless the paths of discovery and discernment, through times of joy and experiences of hardship, with the constant love and support of your Church.
Jesus Christ, alive in the hearts of all your people, grant that we may “journey together, young and old… to nourish our enthusiasm, cause dreams to emerge, awaken prophecies and enable hope to blossom.”*
Jesus Christ, Redeemer of all humankind, opens our hearts to encounter all young people, to accompany and be in community together, and as one Church, embark upon our holy mission.
Jesus Christ, in the company of the Father and the Holy Spirit, graciously hear our prayer and be with us forevermore.
I hope and pray that you are all happy, healthy, and well!

A representative from Avalon Nursing Home called and is looking for volunteers to come in at 1-2 pm or 3-4 pm every day, incl. weekends, to do crafts/sing along/ play an instrument/ play cards with the residents. Anyone under 18 would need an adult with them. She asks that anyone who is coming call her at 845-463-0500 and let her know when they can come and what they will be doing.
The amazing opportunity of attending Camp Veritas is a perfect and awesome lifetime opportunity. Please see the brochures that were sent home or visit https://www.campveritas.org/ for additional information and registration information. Again, this is TRULY an AMAZING opportunity and would indeed meet and exceed all "requirements" but MOST importantly be an awesome faith and friendship-building experience! "The recipe is play-and-pray with a full immersion in the Catholic Faith through sacraments and activities." (Camp Veritas website)
