FROM THE PASTOR/ DE PARTE DEL PÁRROCO
Next Sunday, Nov. 2 is St. Mary’s Golden Harvest Dinner:
This is our parish’s opportunity to invite the public to enjoy a
good meal and support our parish financially. I hope every
parishioner will do his part to help in this effort. Special
thanks to all who have purchased raffle tickets and the
various chairmen working so hard to make it all happen!
ALL SOULS DAY this year falls on a Sunday (which happens
to be the same day as St. Mary’s Golden Harvest Dinner).
The prayers and readings will supplant the regular Sunday
readings and prayers. Every year the Church sets aside this
special day for us to remember the souls of all the faithful
departed in a special way. You might have noticed a
special envelope in your box. If you wish, you may list the
names of your departed loved ones you would like to
remember on the back and return it in the collection basket.
The envelopes themselves will be placed by the tabernacle
for the next year. Also, those whose names are listed will be
remembered in a Mass every month for the next year on or
near the first Friday of the month.
This message about the upcoming election on Nov. 4 was
presented by “Catholics Called to Witness” (CC2W.org):
In generations past, the Church has always been able to
count on the faithful to stand up and protect her sacred
rights and duties. The current generation of Catholics must
do the same. This November Catholics across the nation will
be put to the test. Many issues in America require hard
work. But how do we know if we are building in vain? As we
read in Psalm 127:1, “Unless the Lord builds the house, those
who build it labor in vain.” Catholics across the nation will
have an opportunity to shape the future for our generation
and generations to come. Many issues are at stake but some
issues are not negotiable. Pope Benedict XVI said, “ The
protection of life … from conception until natural death.”
Marriage should be reinforced not redefined. Forcing the
Church to buy insurance that goes against her teachings is a
violation of religious freedom (guaranteed by the
Constitution of the United States). “When the government
tampers with a freedom so fundamental, one shudders to
think what lies ahead” (Cardinal Timothy Dolan). Your vote
will affect the future and be recorded in eternity. Will you
vote the values that will stand the test of fire (marriage, life,
freedom)? If you have internet access a very powerful video
presentation of this message may be found at https://
www.youtube.com/embed/D9vQt6IXXaM (make sure to
type everything carefully in your web browser). The video
may also be play from a link on St. Mary’s Facebook page.
Thank you to the St. Francis Prayer Group for their
donation of $970 from the Retreat they held on Oct. 11-12
and $1,938 in offerings from Masses from July—October.
Gracias al Grupo de Oración de San Francisco por su
donación de $970 del retiro que fue el 11-12 de octubre y
$1,938 en ofrendas para las Misas de julio a octubre.
St. Teresa of Jesus (whose feast was October 15) wrote:
“How different our love would be, how much more like that
of heaven, if we really knew our Lord!” Are the practices in
your spiritual life helping you to really know Our Lord? Are
they shaping your love to be like that in heaven?
Repairs at St. Mary’s: I am waiting for the bill for the three
trips the roofer made to address issues on the flat roof
portions of the church. A different company works on the
slate tiles on church and rectory. The cost for those repairs in
a few weeks will be $5,643. Please remember that when
the monthly repairs collection comes.
