Mercy In Action Ministry - What can you do for a loved one that is deceased? How does the Catechism of the Catholic

Church define "purgatory? The Catechism defines purgatory as a "purification, so as to achieve the holiness necessary to enjoy the joy of heaven," which is expressed by those, "who die in God's grace and friendship, but still imperfectly purified.” (CCC 1030)

All Souls Day is set aside for praying for the dead. Praying for the dead is a Christian obligation. The Church devotes the month of November to pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory. Although it is not a Holy Day of Obligation, we hope you will mark your calendars and join us for a bilingual mass, Saturday, November 2, 2019 at 8:45 am with a rosary procession in the cemetery immediately following. We will begin by praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet. Ideas for Praying for Our Deceased Loved Ones and All Souls in Purgatory 1. Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet for the intention of the Holy Souls. 2. Sacrifices: practice small acts of self denial throughout the day and offer these penances up for the poor souls. More to come... Please join us for our next Mercy In Action Ministry Meeting October 9th at 5:00 pm at the Church. Call Lisa for more information.

October 6, 2019 27th Sunday in Ordinary Time SECOND COLLECTION The second collection today is for Respect Life Sunday. Please be generous. COFFEE AND DONUT SOCIAL The Coffee and Donut Social hosted by the Men of St. Patrick’s is Sunday, October 6th after the 8:00AM and 10:00AM Masses in the parish hall. See you there. BISHOP’S REFLECTION FOR OCTOBER Dear Brothers and Sisters, in October we will once again celebrate Respect Life Month. This year’s theme, chosen by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, is Christ Our Hope: In Every Season of Life. In this time of ever increasing attacks on the life and dignity of the human person, we as the people of God need to be conscious of our call to evangelize, to bring Christ, our hope, into every season of life. When I came to the Diocese I was happy to learn that the people of the Diocese of Stockton, through generous contributions to the Respect Life Sunday Second Collection, support the Church’s efforts to build a Culture of Life. In the past your support has allowed the diocese to: -Establish a network of parish Respect Life Representatives; - Educate on life issues; - Promote local Pregnancy Resource Centers; -Offer reconciliation and healing to men and women hurt by abortion; -Advocate for just laws at the local, state and national level; -Work to improve the care of our sick and elderly. While all of this work is extremely important and will continue into the future, we have come to realize building a Culture of Life in the Diocese also requires an outreach to our families. To better serve God’s people and meet the needs of families, we plan to expand our office of Respect Life to include Family Life Ministry. With this expansion we will provide resources and support to address the everyday realities of marriage and family life. As the theme for October indicates, we need Christ as our hope in Every Season of Life. We need to have Diocesan resources for the many seasons a family might encounter including: -Christian Marriage (preparation and enrichment); -Natural Family Planning; -Parenting (in times of crisis and just the everyday); -Single, Divorced and Separated Catholics; -Experiences of death and/or End of Life. Preparation I am asking for your increased support of the Respect Life Second Collection to help us realize our vision of expansion and development of the new diocesan Office of Family and Respect Life. As we work together promote a Culture of Life, let us ask the Lord of Life, Jesus, to lead us on the way. In the Peace of Christ, Bishop Cotta

6 de Octubre 2019 27º Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario SEGUNDA COLECTA La segunda colecta hoy es para Domingo de Respecto a la Vida. Por favor sean generosos. REFLEXION DEL OBISPO PARA OCTUBRE Queridos Hermanas y hermanos, En octubre celebraremos una vez más el mes De Respeto Por La Vida. La Conferencia De Obispos de los Estados Unidos ha escogido como tema: Cristo Nuestra Esperanza: En cada época de nuestras vidas. En este tiempo de ataques a la vida y dignidad de la persona humana, nosotros como pueblo de Dios necesitamos ser conscientes de nuestro llamado a evangelizar, de traer a Cristo, nuestra esperanza, a cada época de nuestra vida. Cuando vine a la Diócesis estaba feliz de saber que el pueblo de la Diócesis de Stockton, apoya a la Iglesia en el esfuerzo por construir una Cultura de Vida, a través de sus generosas contribuciones en la segunda colecta en el domingo dedicado al Derecho por la Vida. En el pasado su apoyo ha ayudado a la Diócesis a: • Establecer una red de representantes de parroquias por el Derecho a la Vida; • Educar sobre cuestiones de La Vida; • Promover centros locales de recursos para el embarazo; • Ofrecer reconciliación y sanación a hombres y mujeres dañados por el aborto; • Abogar por leyes justas a nivel local, estatal y nacional; • Trabajar para mejorar el cuidado de nuestros enfermos y ancianos. Aunque todo esto es extremadamente importante y continuara siéndolo para el futuro, hemos llegado a la conclusión en la Diócesis que para crear una Cultura de Vida también es necesario llegar a las familias. Para mejor servir al Pueblo de Dios y cumplir con las necesidades de las familias, tenemos planeado expandir nuestra oficina del Derecho a la Vida e incluir el Ministerio de La Familia. Con esta expansión proporcionaremos recursos y apoyo para abordar las realidades cotidianas del matrimonio y la vida familiar. Como indica el tema de octubre, necesitamos a Cristo como nuestra esperanza en Cada época de la vida. Necesitamos tener recursos diocesanos para las muchas estaciones que una familia podría encontrar, incluyendo: • Matrimonio Cristiano (preparación y enriquecimiento); • Planificación Familiar Natural; • Como ser Padres (en tiempos de crisis y en el día a día); • Católicos solteros, divorciados y separados; • Experiencias de muerte y/o preparación para el final de la vida. Les pido su mayor apoyo en la segunda colecta para el Derecho por la Vida, su donativo nos ayudara a realizar nuestra visión, expandir y desarrollar la nueva Oficina de la Familia y Respeto a la Vida. Al trabajar juntos para promover la Cultura de Vida, pidamos al Señor de la Vida, Jesús, que nos guie en nuestro camino. En la Paz de Cristo, Bishop Cotta ROSARIO VIVIENTE El mes de octubre es el mes del rosario. Los ninos/as de los grados K-6 haran un rosario viviente. Les invitamos a que nos acompañen el martes 8 de octubre o miercoles 9 de octubre a las 4:30 de la tarde en el fil de soccer. ¡LA IGLESIA DE SAN PATRICIO NECESITA SU AYUDA! ¿Puede usted dar su tiempo para limpiar la iglesia? Necesitamos voluntaries. Favor de llamar a la Oficina Parroquial al 838-2133. MISA CON UNCIÓN CADA PRIMER VIERNES DEL MES Padre Raju tendra Misa con Unción cada primer viernes del mes para los que necesitan sanación física, emocional o espiritual a las 8:00 de la mañana en la Capilla de los Santos Ángeles. ORAR POR VOCACIÓNES Personas que desen llevar el nuevo cáliz a casa para orar por vocaciones tienen que llamar a la oficina parroquial (838-2133) para apuntar un tiempo con la secretaria.
