With the largest representation, the St. Monica youth
group was able to win all categories of competition at

to win the tug of war. Thank you to all who donated
diapers for the pamper pyramid. With the support of
the parish the youth were able to construct the highest tower that remained standing while making a sizable donation to the most worthy cause. A special
thanks to Trish Kuper and Amy Highfill for accompanying the youth and making the day possible.

October 12, 2014
FROM THE PASTOR
We had nice turnouts both at the parish and at
PetSmart this past Saturday for the blessing of pets.
We’ll hope to continue the blessing at PetSmart, especially as an opportunity to help non-Catholics find a
connection with Jesus in his Catholic Church. I can
see this being an easy but important evangelization
opportunity in years to come.
I ask for your prayers as I leave Sunday, October 12,
for an 8-day silent retreat. A priest is required to
make an annual retreat since guarding and nourishing
his own spiritual life is one of his most sacred duties.
This retreat is part of a training program in spiritual
formation that the Archbishop asked me and four
other priests to participate in. The program is a three
-year program. It meets three times each year at the
seminary just outside of Chicago. Two of the meetings each year are classroom type meetings and one is
the annual retreat. I count on your prayers for the
grace of a good retreat!
We have our fall parish workday on Saturday,
October 25, in the morning. Please see information in the bulletin, or call the Parish Office, and plan
to meet here that morning to assist with various outdoor and indoor projects to clean and maintain our
parish campus. We can use lots of help. Breakfast is
provided. This is a great stewardship opportunity and
it is a way your entire family can come together to
help.
Sincerely in Christ,
Rev. Stephen Hamilton

Smart in Edmond to bless pets there, in

Twenty-Eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time
MENSAJE DE NUESTRO PÁRROCO
Tuvimos buena concurrencia tanto en la parroquia como
en PetSmart el sábado pasado para la bendición de mascotas. Esperamos continuar esta bendición en PetSmart especialmente como una oportunidad para ayudar a los no
católicos a encontrar una conexión con Jesús en su Iglesia
Católica. Esto es una oportunidad importante de evangelización para los años venideros.
El domingo 12 de octubre empiezo mi retiro de silencio
de 8 dias. Les pido sus oraciones durante este tiempo. Es
requerido que cada sacerdote participe de un retiro anual
ya que proteger y alimentar su vida espiritual son deberes
sagrados. Este retiro es parte de un programa de capacitación en la formación espiritual que el Arzobispo me ha pedido participar junto con cuatro sacerdotes más. Este es un
programa de tres años. Nos reunimos tres veces al año en
un seminario en las afueras de Chicago. Dos de las reuniones de cada año son las reuniones propias de educación y
una es el retiro anual. ¡Cuento con sus oraciones por la
gracia de un buen retiro!
Un monje de la abadía de Saint Gregory celebrará las Misas el 18 y 19 de octubre para hablar sobre la Universidad
Saint Gregory y ofrecer la oportunidad de apoyar a su fondo de becas.
La jornada de trabajo de otoño de nuestra parroquia se
llevara a cabo el sábado 25 de octubre en la mañana. Por
favor, consulte la información en el boletín, o llame a la
oficina parroquial, y planee estar aquí esa mañana para ayudar con varios proyectos afuera y adentro para limpiar y
mantener nuestra parroquia. Necesitamos mucha ayuda. El
desayuno está incluido. Esta es una gran oportunidad de
vivir nuestra corresponsabilidad y una manera para que
toda la familia se reúna a ayudar.
Sinceramente en Cristo,
Padre Hamilton
“Si crees en el Señor Jesús, te salvaras tú y tu familia”.
