Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick at Mass On Sunday November 17th

Father Stan will be offering the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick following the 7 AM Mass. This Sacrament will be offered at various Masses in our parish again in subsequent months. The 1972 ritual indicates that this Sacrament is for “Christians whose health is seriously impaired by sickness or old age” “In the case of a person who is chronically ill, or elderly and in a weakened condition, the Sacrament of Anointing may be re-peated when in the pastoral judgment of the priest the condition of the sick person warrants the repe-tition of the sacrament.” People of all ages, includ-ing children, who suffer from a serious illness or are facing major surgery can be anointed.

A Sunday Gospel Reflections October 27th. – Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary Time Luke 19:1-10 Gospel Summary Children may know just how Zacchaeus felt in today’s Gos-pel story. Have you ever lifted your children to your shoul-ders so they might see over the crowds at a parade, waiting in a long line, or at a local sporting event? Zacchaeus was short and climbed a tree to get a better look at Jesus. Something surely stirred in his heart because it seems that he may have already given some thought to changing. Jesus reached out to Zacchaeus in friendship, and Zacchaeus responded with gen-erosity and true remorse. Reflection for Families Among our children’s playmates we may find some who try our patience. It may be that they come from different back-grounds or circumstances than our own family, and we may hold similar reservations regarding their parents. Perhaps to-day’s Gospel challenges us to encounter those who may be outcasts in a more loving way—as Jesus did. Bringing the Gospel into Your Family Imagine that Jesus has joined your family (you may even want to set an extra place for him at the table). What kinds of things would you want to talk about with Jesus? Do you have some questions to ask him? Are there some things that you would be willing to change about yourself or your family in order to respond to Jesus as Zacchaeus did? In your discus-sion, think of some occupations in our own time that would be hard to have and still live the way Jesus wants us to. Discussion Starters I need to forgive . . . Someone I know (of) repaid a debt like Zacchaeus when . . . Someone I need to reach out to even though he/she is different from me is . . .

Recent Deaths Our Condolences are extended to the family of

Leo Coleman

who has recently passed away. May the Lord bless him and keep him. May the Lord let His face shine upon him, and be gracious to him. Lord, look upon him kindly and

give him peace.

Dear Parishioners, If you are ever approached by anyone asking for help or money, please make sure that you refer them to the Parish Office, as we do have resources and funds to help them through our Social Ministry Department. Thank you.

Thank you!

Regarding having a 5:30pm daily Mass on Thursday Yes, I would love it if we had a 5:30pm Mass on Thursday

NO, please leave all the daily Masses at 12:10. I cannot make it at 5:30pm

A Weekday Mass at 5:30 PM? Someone asked me if I would be willing to move one daily Mass a week to 5:30pm. I looked at my schedule and brought it to the Liturgy committee; and I could do that on Thursdays at 5:30 pm if that is what the people of the parish desired. So, I ask you to complete the form below and put it in the collection basket or get it to the office; or even send me an email to my email address in the bulletin. – Father Stan
