We Need Your Help!
We would like the names and ranks of the men
and women from our parish who are now serving in
our military. We want to pray for our enlisted in a
more personal way.
Everyone can benefit from additional prayers,
but considering the state of our world today, those
serving in the military can use our prayers more then
ever.
Please call the rectory with the information so
that the names and ranks can be listed in our weekly
bulletin.
New Year Donations
for Saint John’s Soup Kitchen
“When you do this for the least of your brethren, you
do it unto me”; words from our Lord.
Each month, a group of Summit Knights of
Columbus and other church parishioners visits Saint
John’s soup kitchen in Newark, NJ on the second
Thursday to serve the noon meal and on the second
Saturday to make and serve breakfast to the
homeless and unfortunate in the Newark area. With
other soup kitchens closing this past year, the
number being fed has nearly doubled. During a
typical noon meal we serve a full dinner to about
400 people. The Summit Knights of Columbus
started a Saint John’s Fund several years ago and
some of our parishioners and Knights have
contributed regularly to the fund. In the last several
years we have brought about $8500 in food to the
soup kitchen. Our funds are nearly depleted.
Please consider making a donation as a New
Year’s offering to feed the homeless. Make your
checks to Knights of Columbus, Summit Council
783 and in the memo section write Saint John’s
fund. Donations can be mailed to Jim Gallo, 52
Greenwood Road, New Providence, NJ 07974.
Also if you would like to participate on a
Thursday for the noon meal or early on a Saturday
morning serving breakfast, call Jim Gallo at 908-
464-1861. Jim has been leading the soup kitchen
ministry since 1999. This year, Mike Savage has
taken on the responsibility for leading the service on
Saturday mornings.

Sunday, January 2, 2011 OUR LADY OF PEACE CHURCH
To the generous students and
members of the parish that helped
bring a little bit of Christmas to our
brave soldiers:
Thanks to you, over 75 lbs of home made
cookies, hand written letters, snacks and snowman
soup was sent to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Following is from the soldiers that received the
Halloween candy and letters from the Academy of
Our Lady of Peace and the letters and photos from
the OLP Youth Groups.
From 1st LT Dale in Iraq:
"Dear Mrs. Sullivan:
I just wanted to send you a note to tell you how
much I appreciate the packages that you, the ladies
from the area, and the children sent me. I don't have
a platoon anymore, so I shared the goodies with the
men I work with at the Battalion Command Post.
The timing of your package could not have been
better, it came on a day when everyone needed a
lift. I actually got the snowman soup
packages in the afternoon on 21 November, earlier
that morning we had a soldier in one of the
companies KIA. It was a terrible day, and getting
those packages, especially the letters, and seeing
how much people back home still cares about the
fight we have going on here meant so much to
everyone. I actually got the Halloween candy about
a week later, it had to be forwarded from my old
address, but Halloween candy is good year round, it
was another boost at the end of a very long week. "
From 1st LT Patrick in Afghanistan:
Mrs. Sullivan - the packages made it... thanks so
much for all the great stuff - huge morale boost for
the Holidays! The goods will be disseminated shortly
and I'll have something coming back your way as
soon as possible... in the meantime please let
everyone involved know that all the men are very
appreciative. Always, Patrick

know that if you want to send cards, letters or care
packages to our soldiers, but don't

I'll make sure the package gets to a deployed

Thank You from
St. Joseph’s Social Service Center
We are very grateful to all who donated food,
money and time at Thanksgiving. Your generosity
enabled us to provide turkeys with all the
trimmings to 775 households. Thank you so much
for helping to do God’s work!

Make a Gift through an
IRA Charitable Rollover
Normally, a distribution from your IRA is
taxed as ordinary income. However, tax legislation
just enacted extends the opportunity for the
remainder of 2010 and throughout 2011 for
individuals 70½ or older to make a direct
distribution from your IRA to a qualified charity,
such as (PARISH NAME), the Archbishop’s
Annual Appeal, the Archdiocese of Newark, or
another archdiocesan institution. Such qualified
direct distributions to charity from your IRA are
not subject to income tax. The new law also
provides that you may consider such distributions
made in January 2011 as made in 2010.
For more information about how you and the
Church can benefit from an IRA charitable
rollover, contact the parish office or the
Archdiocese of Newark’s Planned Giving Office
at 973-497-4048 by e-mail at PGINFO@rcan.org.
