This Week’s Readings
There will be Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament following the 9:00 a.m. Mass, until 3:00 p.m., in the Chapel of the Holy Cross located in the Parish Ministry Building.

Faith on Tap What does your selfie say about you? Faith on Tap is a forum engaging young adults in straight talk and honest answers to questions of faith. Faith on Tap offers young adults a place where they can meet others who are also living out their faith.

Auditions for the Diocesan Choir The Diocesan Choir of Rockville Centre, which sings for the principal Diocesan liturgies, is currently holding auditions on all voice parts (soprano, alto, tenor, bass). Singers with previous choral experience and basic music reading skills are encouraged to fill out an application form by visiting the choir website at www.drvc.org/diochoir. This group of 100 singers leads the music for all the principal diocesan liturgies at the Cathedral, frequently appearing on Telecare as they sing for the Ordinations of Deacons, Priests, and Bishops, as well as Advent Lessons and Carols, the St. Agnes Awards, and other celebrations. The choir also performs concerts of sacred music, often with orchestra, including the Gounod St. Cecilia Mass, the Haydn Te Deum, and works by other classical and contemporary composers. The repertoire of the choir includes a wide variety of music from chant to contemporary compositions. The choir rehearses on Monday evenings (every other week) at St. Kilian Church in Farmingdale. Since many in the choir also belong to their parish choirs, the Diocesan Choir schedule is careful to avoid conflicts on Sunday mornings, and avoids important liturgical weeks like Christmas and Holy Week. In addition to Diocesan Liturgies, the choir has brought their joyful music to additional locations in Montreal, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, as well as St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City. In 2010 the choir made their first European tour to Salzburg, Munich and Vienna, and most recently embarked on a Pilgrimage to England and Ireland celebrating their 25th anniversary season. This coming September, the choir will be accompanying many Diocesan pilgrims to the Basilica of National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C.

The IRA Charitable Rollover is back and is now permanent!
What’s called a rollover is actually a “qualified charitable distribution” that can be made to our Parish.
If… 1. You are at least 70 1/2 years old on the date you make your gift 2. Your IRA is a traditional or Roth 3. You don’t exceed your personal maximum of $100,000 per year in qualified charitable distributions You will not have to report your distribution as income. It will be free of federal and New York State income tax, and it will count toward your required minimum distribution (RMD). The best way for you to start is with your IRA custodian. Tell them you want to make a "qualified charitable distribution". In most cases you will only have to fill out a simple form. VERY IMPORTANT!! Your gift must go directly from your IRA to the Parish. If you receive the money first then you’ll be taxed on it like any other distribution. Example: Mrs. Connors, age 76, has $125,000 in a traditional IRA and would like to contribute $5,000 to her Parish in 2016. Upon hearing of the Charitable IRA Rollover opportunity, she directs the custodian of her IRA to transfer this amount not later than December 31, 2016 directly to the Parish as a 2016 gift. She will not be subject to income tax on her $5,000 qualified charitable distribution.
