The Sunday Pilgrimage to our Lady of the Island Shrine 7/20/2014

Father's Club sponsored an outing to the L.I. Ducks Game and reported in the Oceanside Herald below (June 21):

St. Anthony's Feast nets the most in 4 years!

The numbers are in, showing the Net profit to be the best in four years at $97,739.55! And that's despite inflation and increased expenses! So thank you to our chairman for the feast, John Fellin and all the many and dedicated volunteers. The profit goes a long way to helping us meet our expenses and for the many ministries St. Anthony's can offer. This is the five year comparison:

SUMMER SCHEDULE:
The Chapel will be closed during July and August. All Masses will be celebrated in the Church during that time. The 12:45 Mass in Spanish will be held in the Church, replacing the 12:30 Mass. The regular schedule and Chapel Masses will resume on Sunday, September 7th.

Thanks to our many parishioners, the Knights of Columbus, the Squires, the Fathers' Club and all who volunteered to make the visit of the relic of St. Anthony from Padua to Oceanside such a joyful experience this Saturday, June 14, 2014.

Parish Revenue Sharing with Oceanside Christopher Credit Union

Recently we received our quarterly revenue sharing check from Oceanside Christoper Federal Credit Union Parish Revenue Sharing Program. Since this program began, our parish has received a total of $11,506. The amount we receive each quarter is determined by the number of our St. Anthony parishioners who are members of the credit union and their usage of the Oceanside VISA Credit and Debit Card. So, a special thanks to our parishioners who are members. Your credit card usage benefits our parish and these days it is especially helpful. For those of you who are not members, we encourage you to consider joining and getting a credit card at the Credit Union. This is great way of helping the parish just by using the card. For more information visit www.thecatholiccreditunion.org or call 516-620-8100. The credit union has branches in Oceanside and Seaford.

We're planning to have our own Christmas Cards for next year and would like you to pick your favorite picture from the ones we have available. Select your choice(s) here.
