ABIGAIL HUTCHISON AWARDED
RESURRECTION SCHOLARSHIP
We are proud to announce that Abigail Hutchison, 18, a senior at Rye High School has been awarded the 2020 Monsignor Patrick J. Boyle scholarship for $2000.
Msgr. Boyle was the dedicated pastor of our parish from 2002 to 2011.
Abigail attended Resurrection Grammar School and was an altar server and lector here. At Rye HS, besides getting excellent grades, she was a member of the National Honor Society and editor of the senior yearbook. She was captain of the Rye volleyball team and is a junior black belt in taekwondo. She also enjoys scuba diving. She volunteered at POTS for many years. She will attend the College of Charleston (Honors) in the fall.
May God bless Abigail, a bright and strong woman of many talents, in her future endeavors. The parish of Resurrection salutes and acknowledges her. We are sure that Monsignor Boyle is smiling on her from above!

10. The Rye Rec and Rye YMCA summer day camps have been canceled for the summer 2020. Both camps were supposed to take place at Resurrection because of construction at city schools.

Many interesting topics were brought up like resuming mass in church, also resuming school and religious education classes. We are grateful for the service, advice and wise counsel of our parish council. (see zoom photo below)
12. All weekend masses and weekday masses continue to be CANCELED. Cardinal Dolan had a press conference on May 21 outlining the initial procedure to reopen over the next several weeks.

All Services are private and NOT open to the public.

MEMORIAL DAY PRAYER
On this Memorial Day, we pray for those who courageously laid down their lives for the cause of freedom. May the examples of their sacrifice inspire in us the selfless love of Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. Bless the families of our fallen troops, and fill their homes and their lives with your strength and peace. In union with people of goodwill of every nation, embolden us to answer the call to work for peace and justice, and thus, seek an end to violence and conflict around the globe. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
