November 16, 2014 Pastoral Thought A special day for our parish—we celebrate the rededication of our worship space and also the 54th anniversary of our founding, in November 1960, on the feast of Christ the King (next Sunday). I would like to comment on our present year (2014-15) objectives which you see printed in the bulletin attachment. They express our ongoing commitment to live and act as a faithful Christian Community. Preceding the objectives are our 5-year goal statements. Goal 1: Christian Formation “Foster a Christian community where adult members live in a conscious spiritual life and evangelize in our area.” The objective: “Urge reform of diocesan church priorities” sounds bold, even brash. Yet Pope Francis wants a synodal church [much consultation] that is not ‘self-referential’ [concerned only about its own interests]. So a special committee of parish council will be responsible for expressing grass roots concerns to our diocesan leadership this year. Goal 2: Liturgy “Provide vital and prayerful liturgy and actively involve youth and Hispanic members.” Less attention was given to this due to so many recent improvements. Goal 3: Pastoral Care and Community Building “To know all of our members and connect them with small communities, ministries and activities.” Objective 3: “To install greeters/ministers of hospitality at all Masses.” We want no one to feel a stranger, or that no one cares about them. Objectives 5 & 6: “Improve publicity to the Hispanic community of non-Hispanic events, and vice-versa.” As integration occurs we need announcements and prayer intentions to be shared. Goal 4: Service/Social Ministry I would like you to read the entire six objectives. With mentoring, and outreach to the disenfranchised (LGBT, divorced, etc.) we are working for societal reconciliation, however humbly. This again is part of Evangelization, cf. Pope Francis. Goal 5: Hispanic Ministry “Form a community of disciples who assume increased responsibility for the parish.” Objective 2: “Institute a pastoral agent…” This role is crucial. The pastoral agent acts as leader of the community in the absence of the priest. Especially (though not only) among our Hispanic people this leadership is overdue. Goal 6: Finances and Goal 7: Facilities are being handled steadily and well. No comment is ventured at this time. Father John Hynes Page 3 Mark your calendars: BREAKFAST IN BETHLEHEM is coming soon!

ASCS will hold its Fall OPEN HOUSE this Thursday, November 20th from 6:00-7:30pm. 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 PreK3 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]. Each fourth grader at ASCS researched a saint and shared important facts with their classmates. They decorated a pumpkin to show a representation of their saint. Then they created a scavenger hunt map on the iPads. The kindergartens and second graders used the map and some written directions to find the pumpkins, which were hidden in the garden. The fourth grader then shared their report with the younger students. It was a great way to celebrate our feast day! ~ ~ ~ American History Erased “History is not history, unless it is the truth.” ~Abraham Lincoln In 1782 the United States Congress voted this resolution: “The Congress of the United States recommends and approves the Holy Bible for use in all schools.” Most of our Founding Fathers’ statements about the importance of religion, scripture and the Ten Commandments in forming this country have been erased from textbooks. Revisionists have rewritten history to remove the truth about America’s Christian roots. November 16, 2014 PARROQUIA SANTA CATALINA DE SIENA Rev.
