Scripture Insights Today’s readings remind us that God can work through the most unlikely avenues and agents to produce a good outcome, provided we are willing to trust in God’s pow-er. In the First Reading from the Book of Isaiah, we hear about Cyrus, king of Persia, whom the prophet calls the “anointed” (or messiah) of God. Although Cyrus was not an Israelite and did not even know the name of God, we are told that God grasps his right hand (a sign God approves the king’s enthronement) and calls him to re-lease Israel and Judah from their bondage. Thus, after the Babylonian exile in the sixth century BC, the Jewish people, through Cyrus, experience a new exodus to their homeland. In the Second Reading, Paul praises the Christian com-munity in Thessalonica because their “work of faith and labor of love and endurance in hope” confirms their identity as God’s choses. Especially in the face of per-secution, one would not expect them to live their faith so robustly, except that the Holy Spirit inspires to bring forth good work. The Gospel depicts a potentially explosive scene in which some Pharisees, scholars of the Law, and people from the party of Herod Antipas try to entrap Jesus. But Jesus deftly turns the question on his opponents, declar-ing that they ought to pay to the emperor what is his due and pay to God what they owe God. Thus they unwit-tingly become the agents of Jesus’ proclamation, that we must acknowledge God’ sovereignty by doing God’s work. Clearly, Jesus’ opponents were doing neither. How would you describe God’s relationship with Cy-rus? How might it relate to your own relationship with God? Prayerfully reflect on the phrase “Work of faith and la-bor of love and endurance in hope.” What new insights does it offer about these cardinal virtues-faith, hope, and love? What does the statement “Repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God’ mean to you in your life experience?

PLEASE PRAY FOR….those who are sick or suffering in any way, we

After two weeks, if prayers are still needed for that person, we ask that you call the office and request that their names remain on the list. Thank you for your understating. For all those that are incarcerated , lonely, sick or dying… . We pray to the Lord

Remembrance Book In many Christian traditions November is a month of remembrance, initiated by two special autumn feasts. All Saints on November 1st and Feast of the Holy Dead on November 2nd. These feast help us remember those we have loved who have jour-neyed through death. Though they have died, they can be very real and close to us because “One lives forever in the hearts of those who remember.” Here at St. Vin-cent’s in a very special way, we remember the holy dead of our families and our friends—those who have recently died and also those who have died years ago and continue to live in our “memory hearts’ by placing their names in the Book of Re-membrance at the front of the Church.
