Weekly Reflection
Reflexión Semanal
Faith’s Yield
La Cosecha de la Fe
Today’s readings and prayers focus on the end of time
when Jesus will return “with great power and glory.”
This truth can cause uneasiness as Daniel writes in the
Old Testament, “it shall be a time unsurpassed in distress since nations began.” It is wise to stop and reflect
on these readings which signal that the liturgical year is
drawing to a close. We are reminded of our mortality,
our inevitable death, and our immortality, our everlasting life. Each day is a dying. We are constantly moving
toward our death and final triumph. The Collect reminds
us that our confidence in the final triumph comes to us
through “the full and lasting happiness to serve with
constancy the author of all that is good.” Whenever we
acknowledge the Responsorial Psalm’s refrain, “You
are my inheritance, O Lord,” disquietude and anxiety
dissipate. We believe that Jesus hears each one of us
when we cry, “my heart is glad and my soul rejoices, my
body, too abides in confidence; because you will not
abandon my soul to the netherworld.” This surety allows
us to welcome these “end of the year” readings that
remind us that each of our journeys will draw to a close.
The seasonal markers of harvest and dormant fields
call us to reflect on life’s cycle. Our time on earth is
temporary and Saint Paul reminds us in his letter to the
Hebrews that “Jesus offered one sacrifice for sins, and
took his seat forever at the right hand of God,” to open
heaven to all who believe and trust
in Him. It is with this unwavering
belief and trust that we joyously
proclaim, “You will show me the
path to life, the fullness of joys in
your
presence,
forever” (Responsorial Psalm).
Las lecturas y las oraciones de hoy se enfocan en el fin
de los tiempos, cuando Jesús regrese “con gran poder y
gloria.” Esta verdad puede causar incomodidad como lo
escribe Daniel en el Antiguo Testamento, “Sera aquel un
tiempo de angustia, como no lo hubo desde el principio
del mundo.” Es prudente detenernos y reflexionar sobre
estas lecturas las cuales indican que el año litúrgico se
acerca. Recordamos nuestra mortalidad, nuestra muerte inevitable, y también nuestra inmortalidad en la vida
eterna. Cada día es un morir. Constantemente nos movemos hacia la muerte y el triunfo final. La Oración Colecta nos recuerda que nuestra confianza en el triunfo
final viene a nosotros al “entregarnos fielmente a tu servicio porque solo en el cumplimiento de tu voluntad podremos encontrar la felicidad verdadera.” Cuando consideramos el refrán del Salmo Responsorial, “El Señor es
el lote de mi heredad,” la inquietud y la ansiedad desaparecen. Creemos que Jesús nos escucha a cada uno
cuando lloramos, “por eso se me alegra el corazón, se
gozan mis entrañas, y mi carne descansa serena, porque no me entregaras a la muerte.” Esto verdaderamente nos permite darle la bienvenida a estas lecturas
de “fin de año” que nos recuerdan que cada jornada termina. En este tiempo del año vemos la cosecha y los
campos silenciosos, esto nos llama a reflexionar sobre
el ciclo de la vida. Nuestro tiempo en la tierra es temporal y san Pablo nos recuerda en su carta a los
Hebreos que “Cristo ofreció un solo sacrifico
por los pecados y se sentó para siempre a la
derecha de Dios” para abrir el cielo a todo el
que crea y confié en El. Por lo que creemos y
en quien confiamos es que proclamamos gozosos, “Me enseñaras el sendero de la vida, me
saciaras de gozo en tu presencia.” (Salmo
Responsorial)

NOTICE TO All PARISHIONERS
In anticipation of the upcoming rainy season, Our Lady of
the Assumption Parish has arranged to have the 62-year
old church roof replaced during the next month. The work
will be done by Midwest Roofing, Inc. The existing roof
materials contain non-friable asbestos, which will be removed. The work will begin approximately November 15,
weather permitting, and the entire process is expected to
take several weeks.
The removal of the existing roof material will be done entirely at night. No abatement will be done while OLA
School and Religious Education classes are in session.
Workers will wear protective clothing, and will bag and
seal the materials on the roof, sending the bags down
chutes on the west side of the church, where they will be
moved to a truck and disposed of. The parish has contracted with a licensed independent observer to monitor
the entire removal process. He will be onsite during all
the work to ensure that safety procedures are followed. Air quality will be monitored throughout the process.
The installation of the new roof will take place next, working around scheduled masses and services in the
church. Some of this work will take place during the
school day. Sections of parking places near the church
may be reserved for work areas on some days. We anticipate no interruption of the school schedule, including attending morning masses.

There is no better time of year to review
the important family rules that help to
keep all children safe. It takes just a few
moments to review with your children
what to do in an emergency, who the
special and safe adults in their life are,
and the importance of not keeping secrets. Some secrets, like a gift for a special occasion, can
be fun and safe to keep. Secrets that hurt others, involve
any kind of unsafe or inappropriate touching or anything
that bothers a child – are secrets that are NOT safe to
keep. Help your child understand the difference. For a

Cuando los secretos se vuelven peligrosos
No hay ningún mejor momento durante el
año para repasar las reglas familiares sobre
la seguridad de los niños. Tome sólo unos
minutos para repasar con sus hijos qué
hacer durante una emergencia, quiénes son
los adultos especiales en su vida con quienes están
seguros, y la importancia de no mantener secretos.
Algunos secretos, como un regalo para una ocasión
especial, pueden ser divertidos y seguros de mantener.
Secretos que hacen daño a otros, que implica contacto
físico inapropiado, o cualquier cosa que molesta a un
niño, son secretos que NO son seguros de mantener.

NOTIFICACION
Tamales, tamales, tamales!
Anticipando una temporada de lluvia, remplazaremos el
techo del templo, el cual tiene 62 años sin
renovaciones. Midwest Roofing, Inc. se encargará del
trabajo, el cual se anticipa inicie el 15 de noviembre y que
durará varias semanas. El primer paso es quitar el techo,
incluyendo el manejo apropiado de los asbestos. El
trabajo se hará durante la noche y no afectará las clases
de OLA ni el catecismo. Los trabajadores usarán ropa
que los proteja y todo el material del techo será puesto en
bolsas antes de ser bajado a la basura. Un observador
independiente estará encargado de supervisar el trabajo,
asegurándose que se sigan todos los procedimientos de
seguridad y se mantendrá un monitor de la calidad del
aire. Una vez removido, se instalará el nuevo techo,
respetando los horarios de misas y servicios de la
iglesia. Parte de este trabajo se llevará a cabo durante
las horas de escuela.
Algunas partes del
estacionamiento
cerca
del
templo
estarán
reservadas. Anticipamos que no se interrumpa el horario
de la escuela, incluyendo la asistencia a las misas por la
mañana. Cualquier pregunta o preocupación por favor
llame a la oficina parroquial al (805)642-7966.

St. Vincent de Paul Society
The Society of St. Vincent de Paul at
OLA is part of a worldwide organization of lay Catholic men and women
who are committed to live and grow in their Christian faith
through prayer and personal involvement in charitable
works. The Society’s mission is accomplished through
parish and community-based groups called Conferences
(volunteers) and programs called “Special Works.” The
Society’s work includes any actions that promote the dignity of the person, alleviate suffering and distress, while
correcting the conditions that cause them. Here in the
Ventura area, the Society has provided for rental assistance, food, pharmacy and medical needs, utility bills,
lodging, clothing, as well as transportation. This weekend
a second collection will be taken up St. Vincent de Paul.
We here at Our Lady of the Assumption can proudly say
that 100% of the funds donated have been used to assist
those in need. If you are in need of assistance please call
the SVdP office at 642-4104 and make an appointment to
discuss your needs with one of our office Vincentians. Please leave a message if the phone is not answered and your call will be returned.
