Pastoral Thought
Many of you remember Francisco Barragan.
Eleven years ago he lived with us for a year, as a
seminarian for our diocese. Good-natured, goodhearted, outgoing—he had wonderful qualities for
a future parish priest. In the end he returned to
Mexico and was ordained for the Pacific Coast
diocese of Ensenada. After a niece’s wedding in
Southern California, I took the opportunity to visit
him down below the border.
At 35 Fr. Carlos has 40 years fewer than I, but
he is already an experienced and proven pastor,
with diocesan responsibilities also. His parish,
Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe, in Maneadero,
has 20,000 people, 90% Catholic. The two priests
offer weekend Mass in nine locations; 600
children are in religious education; 235 made First
Holy Communion, and they average ten baptisms
a week. He has it well organized, and is out much
among the people.
It’s a joy to see a young priest whom I lived
with become a good shepherd. It’s a joy, too,
seeing how much he remembers St. Catherine’s,
both English and Spanish. It’s affirming for all of
us when he says he learned much at SCS about
“how to be a pastor down here.”
‘The young have time and the old have
money…’ So this Elder will send to the Younger
Man a little donation—to help build their Parish
Center with a hall and classrooms. I’ve seen the
need and the plans...nothing could give me more
pleasure!
This week we celebrate Thanksgiving. One of
the keenest gratitudes we can have—and I feel it
right now—is for having been able to participate in
the development and competence of another
person. I know many of you understand—let’s
give thanks!

BREAKFAST
IN
BETHLEHEM is coming soon!
Saturday,
December 6, from 9:30 to 11 in the Martin
Center. Experience what Christmas is really
about – hear and see the story of Jesus’ birth,
meet some real shepherds with their sheep, enjoy
muffins and hot chocolate, play games, and make gifts
for the people you love! There is no charge, but please
RSVP so we have enough supplies for everyone.
Volunteers are needed and welcome, call Eva, 633-4903.
EMMANUEL DINING ROOM
We will be serving Shepherd Pies at the EDR on Friday
the 28th ( black Friday ). Please consider preparing
your Shepherd Pie early in the week due to the
Thanksgiving Holiday. Return to the gathering space
by 9:30am NOT FROZEN. Also, we are accepting old
kitchen towels to be used at the EDR. Thank you again
for caring for the poor in our community.
The GUADALUPE NOVENA will begin in homes of
our parish on December 4. Each evening through
December 11 groups of fellow parishioners will meet
at 7PM to recite the Rosary, sing, hear scripture and
pray for the community. A little repast follows (e.g.,
hot chocolate and buns). Some of the meetings will
be bi-lingual in Spanish and English. Would you like
to take part? To join in, call our Christian Formation
Office, 633-4903, or sign up at the table in the
Gathering Space.
HAPPY 7Oth ANNIVERSARY
to WALT and KATHERINE
CHRISTIAN!
Walt and Katherine were married in Henderson KY on
Nov. 11, 1944 after having known each other only
three months. They moved to Delaware after the war,
had 3 sons, 5 grandchildren and 2 greatgrandchildren, so far. They were very involved in St.
Catherine Parish right from the beginning with masses
in the fire hall and school at New Castle Airbase.
Walt, like his son Larry today, was a big help then to
our founding pastor, Father Lutz, in maintaining our
grounds and facilities.
Walt and Katherine have lived in the same house
for 65 years; they worked, retired and spent summers
at Indian River Bay. They now pretty much stay at
home, enjoy visits from family and friends, count down
the days until spring training, then cheer on their
beloved Phillies. Their advice for a long and happy
marriage: “Do not have serious arguments.” (We will
analyze this statement and convey its application to
our current engaged couples.)
November 23, 2014
JESSE TREE
Once again during advent we will
have our Jesse Tree. In the past, St.
Catherine’s parishioners have given
generously to those in need. Last
year we helped 28 families as they
struggled with difficult circumstances
during the holiday season.
Those involved behind the scenes of this
ministry have always taken this responsibility very
seriously and striven to make sure that your
donations of gifts and rental assistance have gone
where they are truly needed. Interviews, home
visits, documentation from landlords, conversations
with utility companies and more are all a part of the
work leading up the appearance of our Jesse Tree
on Saturday, November 22.
Most of the tags on the tree will be for the
necessities of life—things like food certificates,
requests for electric assistance, gas cards,
department store certificates, and drug store
certificates to help with medical needs. There will
be a limited number of tags for clothing, household
items and perhaps a few special wishes.
We ask that you pray for those families that we
will be helping this year through our Jesse Tree
project; and we sincerely hope that you will give to
those in need whatever you can share, knowing that
your donations will continue to be handled
responsibly. Many tags will have no dollar amount
specified—no gift is too small or too large.
We cannot possibly help every person who will
walk through the door asking for help from now until
Christmas, but with your generosity, we will reach
out to as many as we can.
The tree will go up on the 22nd of November and
we ask that you return your gifts by the weekend of
December 6th and 7th, or to the Pastoral Center by
December 12th.
If you have any questions, please contact Linda
Micucio at (302)239-7584. God bless you.
One act of thanksgiving, when things go wrong
with us, is worth a thousand thanks when things
are agreeable to our inclinations.
—Saint John of Ávila

We would like to remind our parishioners that
because of new privacy regulations, we must rely
on you to let us know when you or family members

We also remember all our parishioners who are serving in our
Armed Forces (although we do not have their names, we
remember them in prayer).
Please Note: Names of the sick will be listed in the Prayer of
the Faithful for two weeks then removed. If there is a need
to repeat them, please call the Parish Office.
Happy Thanksgiving from All Saints Catholic School!
We give thanks for all of our students, families, and
parishioners like you for your support of All Saints.
On Tuesday, October 28 the All Saints Catholic
School community raised $500 for Breast Cancer. All
of the money that we collected will be going to the
Delaware Breast Cancer Coalition. Our gift will help
serve breast cancer patients, survivors, families, and
friends right here in our community. Student Council
would like to thank all the students, teachers, and
parents who contributed to the donations.
It’s not too early to begin thinking about next school
year! Our Early Childhood classrooms begin to fill
up quickly. We currently have a waiting list for our
PreK-3 Program for this current year. School Tours
are available at any time if you are interested in any of
our programs. All Saints is a Pre-K (ages 3 and 4)
through Grade 8 school. Please call Stephen Adams,
Assistant Principal, if you are interested in obtaining
more information about ASCS or would like to schedule a
tour: 302.995.2231 or [email protected].
