CONFIDENCE IN THE LORD We are nearing the end of the liturgical year. Today’s readings remind us that our own lives will draw to a close one day, and we can be certain that the Lord will encourage, strengthen, and save us—both now and at the last. The astonishing story of the Maccabees invigorates our faith as we behold an entire family willing to die rather than deny the Law of Moses. The psalm response echoes the faithful cries of the Maccabees: “I call upon you, for you will answer me, O God.” That same confidence appears in Saint Paul’s letter to the Thessalonians. “The Lord is faithful,” he testifies; “he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.” In the Gospel, Jesus explains just how long God’s protection will endure. The children of God whom God guards, Jesus says, will live forever like angels. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION In the seventeenth century, English Catholics, many of them wealthy and well educated, looked to the American colonies as a place to regain a measure of religious freedom. In Ireland, the so-called penal laws were even harsher than in England, as a minority Parliament tried to force the conversion of the population by denying the majority political and economic power. Beginning in 1691, laws were passed that punished dissenters, principally Catholics, but also causing hardship for Jews, Quakers, and others. There were acts forbidding “mixed marriage” or sending children “beyond the seas” for schooling. Catholics were taxed at double the common rate, barred from the legal professions and from university, and not allowed to build churches or own a decent horse. In 1793 the situation began to change, as it became clear that the economic persecution would not drive the majority away from Catholicism. Gradually, laws were repealed until by 1829 freedom was won, although Catholics at university were ineligible for honors, and until the 1920s when the Republic was formed, the Church of Ireland was the state church, funded by the taxes of all citizens. —James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

THE BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE

You will notice a BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE at each worship site near the sanctuary. Please take time to write the names of a loved one in these books as we will remember them at each of the Masses we celebrate during the month of November. It is a beautiful way to

remember and honour our loved ones. Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord. And let perpetual light shine upon them. May their souls and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. AMEN.

THIRTY-SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME The dead will rise

Reading I 2 Maccabees 7: 1 — 2: 9-14 (martyrdom of a mother and her sons) Reading II 2 Thessalonians 2: 16 — 3: 5 (the gospel versus empty fables) Gospel Luke 20: 27-38 (the resurrection of the dead)

Key Passage: Now he is God not of the dead, but of the living; for to him all of them are alive (Luke 20: 37-38)

Adult: How does your belief in the resurrection of the dead affect the way you live?

Child: Has someone in your family or among your friends died? Do you think about that person in heaven? What do you hope to talk about with this person?

Hebrews 13: 2

CHURCH CHUCKLE

Timmy didn’t want to put his money in the offering plate Sunday morning, so his mother decided to use some hurried creative reasoning with him.

“You don’t want that money, honey,” she whispered in his ear. “Quick! Drop it in the plate. It’s tainted!”

Horrified, the little boy obeyed.

After a few seconds he whispered, “But, mommy, why was the money tainted? Was it dirty?

“Oh, no dear,” she replied. “It’s not really dirty. It just ‘taint yours, and it ‘taint mine,” she replied. “It’s God’s.”
