On this Patriot Day, we remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honor the courage of first responders and all who showed heroic love. As Catholics, we place our trust in Christ, the Prince of Peace, asking Him to bring healing, unity, and hope to our nation. May we honor their sacrifice by living as people of faith, compassion, and peace.
We're halfway to the weekend!! Keep going!😇
With the first days of Fall upon us we are reminded that there are many among us for whom securing a
good winter coat will be difficult. Please go through your closets to locate NEW OR GENTLY USED coats
and snow pants that are clean. Adult and children’s sizes are needed.
The Ladies of Charity, a Catholic Women’s organization, will be distributing them in October to families residing in Cohoes, Green Island, Waterford and Watervliet. You may leave coats in the collection boxes in the Atrium until Sunday, October 5th .
Thank you for your continuous help as many families are supported by your generosity with lovely coats year after year. If you have questions, please call Mary Ann Sekellick, Pastoral Care Coordinator at 518-371-7372 ext. 224.
This is true! We sometimes get in the way of our own selves despite God giving us all the tools we need!
As we celebrate Labor Day, we are reminded of the Catholic teaching that work is more than just a means of earning a living, it is a way to participate in God’s ongoing creation. St. John Paul II taught that “work is a good thing for man, a good thing for his humanity, because through work man not only transforms nature, adapting it to his own needs, but he also achieves fulfillment as a human being.”
On this day, we pray for all workers and for fair wages, safe conditions, and respect for their dignity. We lift up those who are unemployed, underemployed, or burdened by unjust labor practices. And we remember that every job, no matter how humble, is a chance to serve others and give glory to God.
May St. Joseph the Worker, the patron saint of laborers, guide and protect all who labor in body, mind, and spirit.
"May the favor of the Lord our God be ours. Prosper the work of our hands!" – Psalm 90:17

Did you know pull tabs on drink cans are worth more than the can itself? This is a simple way to help raise funds for a great cause!
100% of all funds raised from the redeemed pull tabs are put into the direct operations of the local Ronald McDonald House of Albany. These funds help support the health, development, and well-being of the children and families they serve by giving them a "home away from home" while receiving treatment for serious illnesses. For more information, please call 518-438-2655.
Happy Funny Friday! We can't wait to see you, and your kids, at Mass!
Supplies can be left in the atrium until 8/15. Thank you for your continued support!!
Amen!
Our first Shine Your Light group of the summer was last week! Mrs. Hayden started the group with a craft, and then they taste-tested some chocolate zucchini muffins Mrs. Hayden had made. Red hand faces show they didn't like the muffins at first glance, but when they tasted them, some of the hand faces turned to green. This was used to teach that we shouldn't "judge a book by its cover." The group also toured the community garden outside of St. Ed's and had a fantastic tour guide - Stanley!
If you would like to attend a Shine Your Light group, please register at www.stedwardsny.org and join in the fun lessons of faith! Thursdays, 7/24, 7/31 & 8/7 at 1:30 PM.
Monday Night Madness will be held at St. Edward's this evening from 6-8 PM. High School Hang Out will be from 8-9:30 PM. We hope to see you there!
