RCIA FOR TEENS
We have had an increasing number of high school students coming to us to learn about our faith who have no, or limited, prior religious education. We will be conducting a two year program to give ninth, tenth or eleve nth graders a background in the faith and the opportunity to receive sacraments they may have missed. If you are, or know of such a student, contact Heidi Reale in the Re. Ed Office at 227-1710x3.

True Reformers:
Saints of the Catholic Reformation  A FORMED.org Series

       Fall 2018 Adult Faith Formation Series
              with Fr. Matthew Mac Donald

 True Reformers: Saints of the Catholic Reformation is a study series that is crafted to teach about those who led the Church’s rebirth from the ashes of confusion caused by the Protestant Reformation. In these six sessions, participants will learn about the true benefactors of the human race: the saints. The saints of the Catholic Reformation show us just how powerful—and beautiful—is the human heart’s free response to God’s generous grace.
Please join us on Wednesday Evenings from 7:30PM – 9:00PM in the Meeting Room at the Church of St. Kateri Tekakwitha for each episode of this series.
       Wednesday, October 17: Saint Charles Borromeo – The Good Shepherd
      Wednesday, October 24: Saint Teresa of Avila – A Study in Perseverance
·      Wednesday, November 7: Saint Francis de Sales – Pastor of Souls
 All are welcome to attend. If you have any questions, please contact Fr. Matthew MacDonald at the Partish Office.

AN INTRODUCTION OF CATHOLIC SPIRITUALITY FOR MEN

Many individuals and families have wandered away from their faith in God, or from involvement in the Catholic Church. Sometimes a simple invitation can lead them to return. Some might be in life situations that prevent them from fully participating in the sacramental life of the Church, and feel they are no longer welcome or allowed to be part of the parish family. They must be told this is not true. At St. Kateri Tekakwitha Parish All are Welcome! 

If you know anyone who would like to be invited back to the Faith and to the Church, have them contact the Parish Office at 845-227-1710x2.   Also see:   www.catholicscomehome.org/

NEW YORK CATHOLIC RADIO

Catholic Bytes Podcast offers short, dynamic talks about the faith. Like our own Fr. Brian Graebe, priests studying in Rome created these podcasts "to offer dynamic catechesis for people on the move. Most people do not have time to sit down and study the faith, so these episodes offer an opportunity to learn more about Catholicism or to grow in your relationship with the Lord, in short 5-10 minute sessions."
" Episodes offer listeners a variety of themes ranging from faith fundamentals, Scripture, dogma, morals, liturgy, spirituality, saints, and Church history."Listen to this one about St. Kateri.
"Get to know Christ and His Church through this dynamic and engaging media!"
