INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS AND OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD
Each Week on Thursdays, October 15 – November 19
A Virtual Lecture Series with Fr. Robert Braunreuther SJ
“What makes us deep-down glad, happy, and at peace? I believe that it is when we are able to make and maintain good, deep, open human relationships. I think that such relationships come about as the result of four basic acts: believing, trusting, loving and forgiving. These are present and active in all good human relationships and in our relationship with God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.” – Fr. Bob
Listen here to a recording of the first session.
If you would like to join the sessions, contact Colm McGarry to receive the readings and Zoom link.

The Weston CARES Fund in partnership with Society of St. Vincent de Paul wants to Help Neighbors in Need During the Pandemic
In just a matter of months, COVID-19 has upended life as we know it. The disruption caused by the virus has been fierce and far-reaching, affecting everyone, especially and disproportionately, our most vulnerable residents. COVID-19 has killed over 400,000 people worldwide and over 7,000 Massachusetts residents.
Millions more have lost their jobs and face food and housing insecurity. It is hard to imagine, much less measure the full impact of this pandemic. Where does one begin to help when the magnitude of need is enormous and getting larger?
Many in our midst have said “I received a CARES check from the Federal Government. How can I help local organizations and people in need…right now?”
This is where the Weston CARES Fund and Society of St. Vincent de Paul can help!
The Weston CARES Fund (WCF) provides emergency grants to local non-profit agencies and residents of Weston and surrounding towns confronting food and housing challenges caused by COVID-19’s detrimental impact on the local economy. The WCF is hoping to currently raise $100,000 to assist neighbors in need.
Please consider how you can help your local neighbors in need right now and donate through the Weston CARES Fund.
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul, St. Joseph Conference, is our Catholic parish’s non-profit organization serving those locally in our midst, who are in need of food or emergency assistance, or who are seeking guidance about availability of other resources.
Do you or someone you know need food or help? Please learn about our services or donate to the parish’s Society of St. Vincent de Paul.
“Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food.
If one of you says to them, ‘Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,’ but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?
In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.”
— James 2:14-17
