What is Spiritual Direction?
Sometimes we need a caring presence to walk with
us on our spiritual journey and help us reflect on our
relationship with God. This can bring much needed
clarity and spiritual growth. Spiritual Direction is, in reality,
nothing more than a way of leading us to see and obey the real
Director—the Holy Spirit hidden in the depths of our soul.

Hallmark Moments in the
Life of our Parish
On Sunday, November 1st, 1200+ gathered with
His Eminence Daniel Cardinal DiNardo to
celebrate the 9am mass of thanksgiving for our
50th anniversary as a parish. Founded in 1965,
we celebrate our golden anniversary and began a
year of celebrations and activities with our
Ordinary, Cardinal DiNardo. I am deeply grateful
Fr. Wayne Wilkerson
to all who came to join us in this liturgy and
celebration that followed in our Family Life Center and Old Hall. A
special thanks to Sandra Godfrey who took on the task of organizing our
brunch which followed the mass. As well, a round of thanks to our
parish staff and all who worked behind the scenes to make this a
memorable day. On Sunday, November 22nd, our parish along with
Bishop George Sheltz celebrated the Rite of Confirmation. We
presented 178 candidates for Confirmation…combined with our
Confirmation in April, those who received the Holy Spirit at St.
Bartholomew the Apostle Catholic Church number 370. Bishop Sheltz
himself praised our parish for such an outstanding number of newly
confirmed Catholic Christians. He encouraged our newly confirmed
“not to be bench warmers” but rather, to get involved into the life and
fabric of our parish. I thank Beth Rady, Director of Youth Ministry,
and her team who took on the great task of formation and
implementation of the Rite of Confirmation. As well, I thank all
who took part in the planning and execution of the liturgy. As we
celebrate 50 years as the “mother parish of Katy”, it is most
edifying to watch to rapid growth of our faith community. What a
pleasure it is to serve you and embrace who God will call us to
become in the next 50 years.
50th
I would like to purchase a new set of gold vessels to be used on
Sundays of Ordinary Time and during the Easter season. As well,
a new set of white vestments with palls for funerals that are
matching in design would add much to the liturgies of our parish.
If you are able, will you please consider gifting the parish at
Christmas? Any and all gifts are gratefully received. May God
Bless You and Your Generosity.

“Your task is to write down everything that I make known to you about My mercy for the
benefit of those who by reading these things will be comforted in their souls and will have the
courage to approach Me.” (Diary, 1693)
From the Diary of St. Faustina
Pray for Those Who Made You Suffer...
It is not always within your power to control your feelings.
You will recognize that you have love if, after having
experienced annoyance and contradiction,you do not lose
your peace, but pray for those who have made you suffer and wish
them well. (Diary #105)
For more information on the Divine Mercy Devotions,
please contact Maria Beck at 832-618-0726.

It’s time to rediscover God’s mercy,
Pope says at Jubilee launch
By Ann Schneible
Vatican City, Dec 8, 2015 / 04:50 am (CNA/EWTN News).- Pope Francis
has officially commenced the Jubilee of Mercy, calling those who pass
through the newly-opened Holy Door to rediscover God’s mercy and
experience the mystery of his love. “This Extraordinary Holy Year is itself a
gift of grace,” Pope Francis said in his homily for Mass, just before opening
the Holy Door in St. Peter’s Basilica. “To pass through the Holy Door means
to rediscover the infinite mercy of the Father who welcomes everyone and
goes out personally to encounter each of them. This will be a year in which
we grow ever more convinced of God’s mercy.” Mercy, he said, must be
placed before judgment, though “God’s judgment will always be in the light
of his mercy.” “... may we feel that we ourselves are part of this mystery of
love,” he said. “Let us set aside all fear and dread, for these do not befit
men and women who are loved. Instead, let us experience the joy of
encountering that grace which transforms all things.”
The Dec. 8 opening of the Jubilee of Mercy, ...coincided with the Solemnity
of the Immaculate Conception. The Holy Year will close Nov. 20, 2016 with
the Solemnity of Christ the King. The Jubilee was officially inaugurated by
the opening of the Holy Door in St. Peter’s Basilica. Pilgrims who pass
through the door -- which is only opened during Jubilee years -- can receive
a plenary indulgence under the usual conditions.

By Joe Kralo
Recently, the major relics of St. Maria Goretti journeyed across the United
States. Thousands of people came to the various cities ...to venerate her
and to ask for her intercessions. Her life was quite short. She is one of the
youngest canonized saints, tragically dying a martyr at the age of 11. Her
attacker, and murderer, Alessandro Serenelli had tried to seduce the young
Maria. Alessandro became so enraged that he not only tried to rape her, but
when she again reminded him of his sin, he stabbed her 14 times.
While she is known for her purity, Fr. Carlos Martins says, “there is
something much deeper within Maria from which her glory flows, her
identification with the Mercy of Christ. No doubt, Maria’s mercy is something
that was supernaturally profound especially given the fact that she did not
die immediately after attack. She suffered tremendously and it is in her
suffering that one can see how she best imitates Christ. As she was about
to receive the Viaticum, the hospital chaplain reminded her how Christ
forgave His murderers while on the Cross. Maria’s biography states when
she was confronted with this reality that she replied, “Yes, for the love of
Jesus I too pardon him, and I want him to be with me in heaven” (St. Maria
Goretti: In Garments All Red, Ch. 10, pg. 47).
...The Catechism states, “The works of mercy are charitable actions by
which we come to the aid of our neighbor in his spiritual and bodily
necessities. Instructing, advising, consoling, comforting are spiritual works
of mercy, as are forgiving and bearing wrongs patiently. ... St. Maria Gorretti
shows an extraordinary respect for not only human dignity, but for the
sexual act as well. As a child killed by violence herself and as the patron
saint for youth, she understands that violence towards the most innocent,
including the unborn, is contrary to not only the mercy of Christ, but His
justice as well.

Laudato Si’ - A Condensation
(“Praise Be to You: On Care for Our Common Home”
by Pope Francis - May 24, 2015)
CHAPTER ONE
II. THE WISDOM OF THE BIBLICAL ACCOUNTS
66. The harmony of St. Francis of Assisi with all creatures was seen as a
healing of the break in the harmonious relationship between humans and
nature. This is a far cry from our situation today where sin manifests itself in
all its destructive power.
Adult CCE
Classes!
Wednesdays at 5:30pm in T-16
or 7pm in FLC Room 201
Thursdays at 6:30pm,
in REC Room 210
67. We are not God. The earth was here before us. This allows us to
respond to the charge that the Genesis account grants man an absolute
“dominion” over the earth. This is an incorrect interpretation of the Bible as
understood by the Church. We must reject that our being created in God’s
image and given dominion over the earth justifies absolute domination over
other creatures. The biblical texts tells us to “till and keep” the garden of the
world. “Tilling” means cultivating, while “keeping” means caring and
preserving, a mutual responsibility. Each community can take from the earth
whatever it needs while protecting the earth for coming generations. “The
earth is the Lord’s.” God rejects every claim to absolute ownership; “…for
the land is mine. You are strangers and sojourners with me.”
This is an open class and you may come
whenever you are able. For more info
contact Joan Summers at 281-391-4758
ext 437.
68. This responsibility for God’s earth means that human beings must
respect the laws of nature and the equilibrium existing between the
creatures. For “he commanded and they were created.” He established
them forever. The laws found in the Bible dwell on relationships, not only
among individuals but also with other living beings. “You shall not see your
brother’s donkey or his ox fallen down and withhold your help.” Clearly, the
Bible has no place for a tyrannical man-centered unconcerned for other
creatures.
Join Us as We Stir Into Flame
the Gift of The Holy Spirit!
69. By virtue of our dignity, we are called to respect creation and its inherent
laws. In our time, the Church does not simply state that other creatures are
completely subordinated to the good of human beings, as if they have no
worth. The German bishops have taught that “we can speak of the priority
of being over that of being useful.” Man must therefore respect the
particular goodness of every creature, to avoid a disordered use of things.
70. In the story of Cain and Abel, envy led Cain to commit the ultimate
injustice against his brother, rupturing the relationship between Cain and
God, and between Cain and the earth. This is seen in the dramatic
exchange between God and Cain. “What have you done? The voice of your
brother’s blood is crying to me from the ground.” Disregard for maintaining a
proper relationship with my neighbor ruins my relationship with my own self,
with others, with God and with the earth. When all these relationships are
neglected, when justice no longer dwells in the land, the Bible tells us that
life itself is endangered. We see this in the story of Noah as well. These
ancient stories bear witness that everything is interconnected. Care for our
lives and our relationship with nature is inseparable from fraternity, justice
and faithfulness to others.
Please Note: Laudato Si’ is available through local Catholic bookstores or
on the web at EWTN or the Vatican.

Life patterns change and the process of
adjustment can be very difficult if one has
to go through it alone. The trauma, pain
and agony that accompany a loss can be
made bearable, and the grief process
worked through more effectively, with the
assistance of others who have had a
common experience.
