This.

Before the costumes and candy, Halloween was, and still is, deeply rooted in our Catholic Faith. The word Halloween comes from “All Hallows’ Eve,” the vigil of All Saints’ Day, when we celebrate the countless saints in heaven and remember that we are all called to holiness.

The line at the food pantry is increasing.

Please consider supporting our ongoing food drive. Christ calls us to the corporal works of mercy, including feeding the hungry.

Baskets are in church. Monetary donations are welcome. We are also sponsoring the Ithaca Smart Snack program.

Ongoing food drive!

Please bring non perishable food donations starting this weekend, or a monetary donation for the pantry. We are also going to collect money for the Ithaca schools healthy snack program— hopefully we can raise enough to sponsor a snack day or week.

People are in need. Any donation is appreciated. If you are one in need, and unable to donate, please support this effort through your prayers so that we may provide for the pantry and our school kids.

The following message is from Patti Farber. She is the sister of Donna Durst.

St Mary's at Keyesville has been praying for our son Chase for an extended period of time now. We cannot tell you how much your prayers are appreciated! As a recap, Chase (47 yrs), suffers with esophageal cancer which involves the inside base of his esophagus, and a nodal tumor next to his pancreas. Unfortunately this nodal tumor is hooked into the top part of his pancreas, so surgery to remove it was unsuccessful. He is and has been on many different types of chemotherapies since July of 2024. Along with two other weekly and daily programs, his life is about constantly driving to appointments and setting timers to remember to take his meds and supplements. The good news is he has had two CT scan reports since July of this year that have shown significant reduction in his nodal tumor and cancer in the base of his esophagus. This was SO encouraging to hear and see on the scan! While we are extremely grateful to God for this news, the hard news is that Chase has very rough days with fatigue, dizziness, nausea, low or no appetite, intense pain and neuropathy in his hands. He struggles to maintain a healthy weight. The chemo drugs and other drugs are very hard on him.
Aside from all this, Chase is a fighter and believes he is going to make it through this dark and difficult time.
His words many times are "I believe the prayers from everyone for me is what has brought me this far"
So THANK YOU Keyesville parishioners for your constant vigil of prayers and support. It really means a lot to us.

In faith and love, Patti Farber
