Mission Statement
Under the patronage of Mary, Mother of the Redeemer, we are a growing faith community
centered in the Eucharist and dedicated to worshiping God, our Father.
In response to our baptismal call, we commit ourselves to promote the gospel of His Son, Jesus
Christ, through Christian hospitality, spiritual nurturing, evangelical outreach, and shared social experience.
We call upon each parishioner to share his or her talents in addressing the needs of our parish and
society at large. We implore the Holy Spirit to consecrate each of us in this mission.
Mary, Mother of the Redeemer, help us share in the work of redemption.

From Our Pastor
Dear Parishioners,
I sincerely thank the countless number of parishioners, and friends
of MMR, who so generously contributed to making the Lenten and
Easter seasons here beautiful and inspiring! I very much appreciate those people who decorated the interior of our church for
both seasons. I thank those who did the “grunt work” of cleaning,
covering the statues and crucifixes, making sure that the grounds
were in good order, and building the New Fire for the Vigil. I’m
most grateful to our talented musicians and singers for providing
inspiring music for our many liturgies, as well as sacristans, greeters, ushers, altar servers, lectors and extraordinary ministers of
Holy Communion. I thank our committed parish staff for the extra
hours and extra care they put into preparations for the added
activities of these holydays and holidays. On behalf of the needy,
I thank all of you who donated to “Operation Rice Bowl,” and
other efforts to assist the less fortunate. I am deeply touched by
those of you who so thoughtfully sent greetings and goodies to
clergy and lay staff. I pray that you and your loved ones continue
to enjoy the Easter season. God bless you all!

Chapter 6: All Love Bears Fruit
“Love is our mission” for everyone –
not just those who are married.
Catholic marriage is a beautiful sacrament, but it is not necessary for a
fully human life. In any society, many
will be marginalized if marriage is
seen as mandatory, as if one needs
a sexual partner in order to be complete. Celibacy in the Church resists
this misleading idea, insisting that
life outside of marriage is also
meant to be beautiful, social, and
sacramental. Catholic celibacy and
marriage have the same inner rationale, for in both cases, love commits us to service and joins us to the
cross. A life of celibacy may be lay
or ordained. Celibacy can be chosen, as in vowed religious life, or the
result of being unable to marry, due
to disability or circumstance. There
are many ways of being celibate,
each with important distinctions, but
to be fruitful, they all require a similar internal motion of soul, an offering of our heart to the Lord. Wise,
mature celibates and spouses practice many of the same spiritual skills.
Celibacy and marriage both proclaim that sexual intimacy cannot be
a temporary experiment or conditional audition. Both celibacy and
marriage create solidarity between
the sexes, rejecting sex in the context of what Pope Francis called the
“throwaway culture.” To create communities where unmarried men and
women experience joy and live their
mission is something Christians need
to do for one another.

SUMMER FESTIVAL
Yes, it's that time again and plans are already in the works.
*** June 16 th - 20th ***
SAVE THE DATE: setup day is Saturday, June 6th...lots of hands and feet needed that day!
We have great live entertainment lined up and lots of terrific plans, but to make the Festival a success
we need YOUR help!
Ways you can help right now:
1. Contributions for our Chance Baskets. Themes that are very popular include:
 tickets to events/attractions (Phillies, Eagles, Flyers, Union, Hershey Park, museums,
movies, Morris Arboretum, Longwood Gardens, etc.);

 gourmet food baskets for relaxing at home; and, of course
 bottles of cheer - to expand these drawings to NIGHTLY!
 Please note: in order to plan and build the theme baskets,
we need ALL basket donations by May 17th.
Donations received after that date might not be used directly in the chance baskets,
but may go towards other Parish fundraisers.
2. Donations of “Gently Used Books”
 we need novels, travel guides, special interest books (please, NO textbooks)
 we make it easy by unloading your books in the Parish parking lot on drop-off evenings
which we will announce in the coming weeks
 or you can bring books to the recruiting table outside of Church starting May 16th
3. Sponsors and vendors
 local businesses play a VERY important role in supporting our Festival
 sponsors are featured on our display board directly across from the main kitchen area
 vendors are provided space to promote their products or services to our nightly patrons
 please mention this opportunity to business owners and have them call the Parish Office
and let’s all pray for good weather for the Festival!
There is something for every parishioner to do. And every little bit counts.

WELCOME TO THE MMR FAITH COMMUNITY
Neophytes who were baptized at the Easter Vigil on April 4, 2015
Ali Seyed Mirfakhar (right)
Christian name: PAUL
Parish sponsor/godparent – YOME HOANG (left)
Ali comes from Iran where he practiced as a veterinarian. Currently he is studying to become a physician’s assistant.
I came to RCIA because I always had a need for God inside my soul. I was Muslim
and because of my background He was like a monster to me. Now I know He is our
loving Father.
The most important and interesting part of this journey for me is the people who
are so kind with each other and help everybody to reach his goal. Also, they always pray in groups for others, and as a result of that, there is peace in my soul. I
believe this journey is a blessing by Jesus Christ.
Jonathan Tran (right)
Confirmation name: JONATHAN
Parish sponsor/godparent – ARMANDO MORAL (left)
I was raised loosely Catholic without religious pressure and never received the sacraments. As I attended college out of state, I was faced with hard times. It was
through attending mass regularly with my relatives that I found even in dark times,
I was and never will be alone.
As a person who was raised practicing Catholicism, even though I had not received
the sacraments as a child, I felt I had a firm grasp of the teachings and I thought
that there was not much more for me to learn. However, I have found I could not
be more wrong, and that my relationship with Jesus is a constant learning process
that I accept.

Hearing Assistance
System in Church
Soon, we will provide churchgoers
at MMR with a hearing assistance system. In fact, the transmitter already has been installed
in the church. Prior to making this
system available, and possibly
purchasing more receivers, we
would like to get a sense of how
many folks would need/want to
take advantage of this aid. If you
are hearing impaired, and would
be looking forward to having this
system in operation for your personal use, kindly contact the Parish
Office. Let us know of your interest. In doing so, you’re not making
any kind of commitment to use it.
We just want to be able to
properly prepare for the general
number of people who might be
using the system.

Welcoming the newly
baptized!
With the help of our fourth grade
students, we now have a special
program designed to celebrate the
baptism of our youngest parishioners. Under the direction of their
teachers, Mrs. Gifford, Mrs. Brody
and Miss Collins, the students wrote
persuasive letters to new parents
about the importance of reading to
their children. The advice offered
by these ten year old students is
truly precious. Included with the letter is a book from each student,
given in a beautifully decorated
gift bag. Recently, the first of these
gifts were given to families who
recently had their child baptized.
The fourth grade students are honored to welcome the youngest of
our parishioners to the MMR family.
Looking for members of
MMR School’s Class of
2005!
