Last Sunday the ANS sold stuffed cabbage in between Holy Masses. Renata volunteered her time and talent to help raise money for the Society by preparing this delicacy. We thank her for offering to do this and we thank those who support us. There may be a few in the freezer, for sale, if you missed out last week. DELICIOUS!

The annual ANS Agape was held in Wallington last Sunday. It was truly inspiring. The imagery of our sins completely disappearing was amazing! We each wrote what bothered us most on a special piece of paper. One by one, we were escorted to the altar; put the paper in a bowl of water and it disappeared. As always, Father Nowicki did a wonderful job putting the service together and the Wallington Parish prepared a fantastic meal. They were very welcoming. It was nice to see so many priests from the Seniorate in attendance.

On April 22nd the ANS is having Bring A Sister Sunday. It will be held in between Masses. We will have a short meeting and introduce interested woman to what we usually do. There will be no pressure to join, but new members are very welcome at anytime.

The members wished each other a happy, healthy and blessed New Year and shared those same sentiments with all other members of the Society and the parish. The society takes care of the needs of the church sanctuary such as liturgical vessels, altar linens and candles. They sponsor parish youth activities such as the annual Acolyte Retreat in the summer. They organize fundraisers and social activities. Baking for various church dinners is their specialty. They welcome new members to join this friendly group of ladies dedicated to mutual support and honoring our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, in the Most Blessed Sacrament of the Altar. Thank you for your wonderful service.

Adoration of the Most Blessed Sacrament Society (ANS) News

Events, Parish Life, PNCC /

The New York/New Jersey Adoration Societies were honored this year to have our Prime Bishop, the Most Rev. Robert M. Nemkovich, as our guest speaker at the annual convention held on September 19, 2010 at the Transfiguration of Our Lord Parish, Wallington, NJ. He made some wonderful suggestions as to how to increase our membership by getting some more people involved in our projects, or just by asking them to sit with us and hold a candle to adore the Blessed Sacrament. It was very inspiring.

Right now our Society is selling raffles to win a gift certificate to a local restaurant worth $100. The drawing will take place at Christmas Dinner on December 5, 2010. Our last raffle, a Basket of Cheer, enabled us to buy four new liquid wax candles for our altar. We sell majority of our tickets at the various dinners held at our parish.

In the spring on Saturday May 14, 2010 from 9 AM to 4 PM we will be holding a Flea Market at which time we will be selling homemade food including stuffed cabbage. In 2009 Mrs. Renata Cyman and Fr. Joseph made quite a few, but they were sold out before Lunch. Next year the women will be helping so that we can make many more.

We are very fortunate that the Daughters of Holy Cross chose to join our ANS. Combining the two has enabled us to accomplish so much more.

We are also blessed to have dedicated members such as Alice Kriskewic, who has faithfully taken on the job as treasures for so many years. Also, Nelly Cabrejos washes and changes the altar linens whenever it is needed. We have much to be thankful for.

We are looking forward to the upcoming beautiful and joyous holidays. Greetings to all members of the ANS.

Karen Peano, Holy Cross ANS President
