SPECIAL HONOR
for ROSEMARIE LEEK
On Sunday, May 15th,
the Feast of
Pentecost, Bishop Serratelli honored families,
couples, and men and women from around the
Diocese of Paterson with a special award.
This
award is called “Vivere Christus Est,” and was
created by Bishop Serratelli in 2009 to honor
individuals and families throughout the diocese who
have given themselves to promoting the Catholic
faith through their commitment to living the Gospel.
“Vivere Christus Est” means “to live is Christ.”
This year 112 people were honored for their
contributions to Catholic life in our diocese. These
are the people who make our parishes the
communities of faith they are and who are involved
in many kinds of parish ministries. Many parishes
would have a difficult time functioning without the
contributions of these people.
I nominated Rosemarie Leek, better known to
us as Roit Leek, from Our Lady Star of the Sea
parish this year. Rosemarie has been an active
member of our parish for over 40 years. Roit is a
teacher by profession and is now retired. She has
been a catechist in our Religious Education program
for 31 years, and has helped to mold the faith of
hundreds of our children over these years. She is a
very active member of our Rosary Altar Society and
is involved in the Pro-Life movement protecting the
life of the unborn. Rosemarie attends Mass on a daily
basis without fail and can make it to church even
when it snows, as she lives just a short walk away.
She is a volunteer gardener and helps take care of
our altar flowers, and the shrubs and flowers around
the church. You can admire some of her handiwork
by taking a moment on the way into church to enjoy
the array of color around the walkway and
entrances.
Rosemarie is very dedicated to living out her
faith and we are very lucky to have her here at Star
of the sea parish. The Vivere Christus Est Award is a
beautiful brass medal with the diocesan crest and a
portrait of St. John’s Cathedral in Paterson on it.
We congratulate Rosemarie on receiving this
award for 2016 and pray that she will continue to be
an active member of our parish for many more
years.
May the Lord shower His choicest blessings on
Rosemarie Leek, our Vivere Christus Est Award
recipient for this year.
Sincerely in Christ,
Father Chris
