PASTOR’S NOTES MASS INTENTIONS

We Are ...

This coming week, we will celebrate two very important Holy Days in the Church’s Calendar of Feasts: Nov. 1, the Feast of All Saints, a Holy Day of Obligation, and Nov. 2, All Souls Day. To make it as con-venient as possible for all to attend, Mass times for those days are scheduled as follows:

Oct. 31 (Vigil of All Saints): 6:00 pm Nov. 1 (All Saints): 6:30 am, 8:15 am, 12:10 pm and 6 pm Nov. 2 (All Souls): 6:30 am, 8:15 am

As baptized Christians, we are part of a vast family known as the Communion of Saints. Each year the Church honors those who have gone before us in faith, especially those whose brave and unwavering witness to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit has inspired us to live a life more committed to the Triune God.

Since his election as Pope in 2013, Pope Francis has canonized many saints. On October 14, 2018, he elevated seven more to the status of Sanctus (saint). Among these are a pope, Paul VI, and an archbish-op, Oscar Romero who was martyred while celebrating Mass in San Salvador. Archbishop Romero was known for his speaking out against social injustice and violence. Also canonized were two women: one from Germany, Mother Catherine Kasper, and another from Spain, Nazaria Ignacia March Mesa, who were founders of religious orders. Included in the group of seven were two Italian priests, Fr. Francesco Spinelli and Fr. Vincenzo Romano.

Completing the group was a teenager from Naples, Nunzio Sulprizio, who died in 1836. He was beatified by Pope Paul VI, and now they both were formally named saints in the same canonization ceremony.

Not all saints are formally canonized – but we can all strive to be-come saints, to achieve a place in the Kingdom of Heaven. We believe that our final destiny is to be with the God who created us. When the soul unites with its Creator, only then will we be at true peace.

There are three stages of the Kingdom, i.e. three stages of the Mys-tical Body of Christ, of His only Church: the Church Militant (we Christians who live on earth), the Church Triumphant (our brothers and sisters who have died and whose souls are already in heaven for eterni-ty) and the Church Purifying (Christians who have died and are in pur-gatory).

Thus we have the Communion of Saints. All members of the three stages of the Church live in the same Body of Christ. Those in heaven already, the Angels and Saints, can help us. We are called to pray for our brothers and sisters in purgatory. As we celebrate these very Holy Days, we the Church Militant, ask for the Saints’ intercessions, and we assure those in the Church Purifying of our prayers. Together we are the Body of Christ.

As members of the Body of Christ, let us make attending Mass on these Holy Days a top priority.
