Weekend at Birney’s

Congratula�ons on First Reconcilia�on I offer my congratula�ons to our young people on the occasion of their

first celebra�on of the sacrament of reconcilia�on. As each of these chil-

dren experience God’s love and mercy through this sacrament, it is in

prepara�on and an�cipa�on for the recep�on of yet another sacrament—

the source and summit of our faith—the Eucharist.

Please con�nue to pray for each of these children, that they will always

know God’s mercy and love through the grace of forgiveness.

Happy Thanksgiving As we gather together for the Thanksgiving holiday with our loved ones,

be they family, friends or strangers, I am ever mindful of all that I have to

be thankful for as the pastor of Cabrini. There are so many people who

help to make our parish such a vibrant and faith-filled community, people

who give without coun�ng the cost, who serve without no�cing the �me.

While the list is endless, I would like to highlight a few groups, to whom I

offer my Thanksgiving:

To all of our dedicated liturgical ministers—Ushers, Lectors,

Sacristans, Eucharis�c Ministers, Greeters, Altar Servers,

Choir Members, Decora�on Commi/ee … without your

willingness to serve, our celebra�on of the Eucharist would

be incomplete and void of its’ beauty.

To all the members of our Parish Council; Finance, School Advi-

sory, Chris�an Service, Youth Ministry and School PTG Com-

mi/ee’s; Boosters, Chris�an Women, Knights of Columbus,

Intercessory Prayer Group and the countless other parish

and school organiza�ons…without your �meless energy

and care for the temporal and spiritual needs of the parish,

we would struggle to provide the ministry we offer to our

people.

To the Funeral Luncheon Commi/ee, Funeral Ministers, Home-

bound Communion Visitors, Morning School Greeters,

Money Counters, Wedding Coordinators, Catechists, Reli-

gious Educa�on personnel, RCIA leaders, Confirma�on

Mentors, and Chris�an Service coordinators….you provide

an example for all to follow as you volunteer your �me and

talent to serve the ‘other’.

To our hard working parish and school employees…over 100

strong…simply put, your ministry is not just appreciated,

but integral to the success of crea�ng ‘joy-filled missionary

disciples’ to/for our parish/schools, and her many minis-

tries.

To all our parishioners, to all the volunteers and supporters of

our parish and schools, may you always know the gra�tude

of this Pastor, this Parish, and most especially, your loving

God.

For all the above, and all that I may have failed to men�on, I give

thanks!

A Thanksgiving Prayer Thank you, Lord, for bringing together our family and friends for this

special day.

Through this day of Thanksgiving we present ourselves before you in

gra�tude, and we are especially aware and grateful, for what you have

provided for us this past year.

We are blessed, each in different ways, and because of this, are ever

more a�en�ve to your presence in our lives. Lord, we are grateful for the

food, drink, rela�onships and conversa�on before us this day.

When so many people are suffering, or without someone in which to

share their love, you place before us a bounty of grace upon grace.

We are blessed by the realiza�on that you have connected each of our

lives in ways that can honor you.

We give praise and thanks to you Lord for all you have sacrificed for us

through the passion, death and resurrec�on of your son, our savior, Jesus

Christ.

Help us to be ever grateful for your forgiveness when we fail to live as

we should.

We are grateful for your guidance when we need help finding the right

path. You are always there to welcome us home, to give us comfort, to

shower us with your love.

Our Thanksgiving is complete, when it includes not just food for the

day, but faith for a life�me. Amen.

Football Predic�ons U of M 37 – Indiana 17 (another easy contest for the surging Wolverines)

MSU 27 – Nebraska 17 (if Sparty can’t beat the lackluster Cornhuskers,

we’ll have to rename them Lions)

Notre Dame 30 – Syracuse 27 (a late season test for the Irish…but one they

will pass)

Panthers 28 – Lions 21 (don’t know what to say, but it appears to be, once

again, same old Lions)

Quote for the week “If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, ‘thank you,’

that would suffice.” - Fr. Meister Eckhart, OP

That’s all for now, see you in Church,

Fr. Tim Birney, pastor

The Parish Office will close at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 21, for Thanksgiving and reopen at 8 a.m. Monday, Nov. 26.

Enjoy the weekend with your family and friends.

The Spread of the KingdomThe Spread of the KingdomThe Spread of the KingdomThe Spread of the Kingdom

Tuesdays Dec. 11 -Jan. 8, Feb. 12, March 12, April 2 and May 14

7 to 8:30 p.m. in Holy Family Hall

The Acts of the Apostles is a story of hope.

It’s a story of how a few Chris�ans empowered by the Holy Spirit were chosen

to bring Christ and the Good News to the ends of the earth.

They taught as Christ did.

They performed miracles as he did. Some even gave their lives for him.

They faced secular forces, internal strife, hos�le crowds,

yet, despite all of this,

they brought the kingdom of God to a broken world

and the love of God to the hearts of men.

Acts will enrich your faith and rekindle your love for Christ as you live the lives of the

first disciples.

Cabrini parish really knows how

to Unleash the Gospel

WOW! Who says pennies don’t add up? Cabrini Parish – you raised more than $2,500 for the recent Crisis Pregnancy Center Bottle Drive. Your participation in this fundraiser will help us provide free pregnancy tests and counseling as well as material needs and education pro-grams. Christmas is coming and the needs of our clients and their infants and children are many. Your charitable act of mercy brings the message of the Gospel to life today, and we thank you. Your generosity is a wonderful exam-ple of Jesus loving the little children.

For Christian stewards,

Thanksgiving is a good

time to reflect on our

many blessings. In the

Archdiocese of Detroit, our community of

faith has much to be thankful for, especially

the programs, services, and ministries funded

by the Catholic Services Appeal.

Your gifts to the CSA touch the lives of thou-

sands of Catholics each day through the good

work of the Central Services departments of

Communications; Development and Steward-

ship; Evangelization, Catechesis and Schools;

and Parish Life and Services.

Whether we are evangelizing, teaching,

enhancing our sacramental life, or bringing

comfort to those less fortunate, we have

much to be grateful for in this season of

Thanksgiving. If you have yet to donate to this

year’s Catholic Services Appeal, please prayer-

fully consider your blessings and make the

most generous gift possible. For information

about CSA-funded ministries, programs and

services, go to www.AOD.org.

Trees are up -

Take a tag!

Seven trees are in the Narthex for our annual Advent outreach to programs and agencies caring for

the needs of infants, children, adults and veterans. There are still tags for the taking. Items represent the Wish Lists of each agen-cy.

♦ Families who reach out to the parish for assistance ♦ Crisis Pregnancy Center in Lincoln Park ♦ Penrickton Center for Blind Children in Taylor ♦ Veteran’s Hospital, Detroit ♦ Core City Neighborhood, Detroit

♦ Most Holy Trinity Parish, Detroit ♦ St. Christine Parish, Detroit Choose one or more items and place your ‘gifts’ back under the same tree (tags and trees are color-coded to make sure we match gifts and agencies) by Dec. 10. Also, keep items in their original packaging, but do not gift wrap. Thank you for your kindness and compassion as we support the efforts of these organizations that care for individuals and families throughout the year.

33nd Sunday in Ordinary Time

With Thanksgiving fast approaching, we

would like to express our deepest gratitude for your continued sup-

port for the work of our St. Vincent de Paul Conference here at St.

Frances Cabrini. The real “thanks” comes directly from our neigh-

bors in need who are grateful for your compassionate hearts.

You have been a source of great hope to so many in our commu-

nity. Steady, generous financial support is truly a blessing.

Yet our needs remain high. So as you reflect on your blessings,

large and small, we are appealing to your generosity again to reach

out with your Thanksgiving Day offering to help those in our com-

munity who are hurting.

This Thanksgiving, your donation will ensure that this is bountiful

for everyone … especially those in dire need.

When you help a person or family in need, the goodwill you

share comes back to YOU. When you gather with family or friends

this Thanksgiving, your own day will be richer and more joyous be-

cause you cared enough to reach out to help someone in our com-

munity. You recognized a need … and you responded.

On behalf of those we serve … God bless you for your generous

heart.

Happy Thanksgiving!
