STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT
The Gospel reading today starts with a question: “Lord, will only a few people be saved?” Jesus
offers only a simple reply: Strive to enter through the narrow gate. Many will try to enter and will not be able. Good stewards know there is only one, narrow gate. Not everything will fit.
This narrow gate has no room for our accomplishments, our money or our
possessions. No room for anything else but those who’ve been good stewards of the Gospel.

Fast Facts About Our Patron Saint San Luis Rey
Louis IX (25 April 1214 – 25 August 1270), commonly Saint Louis, was crowned King of France when he was 12 years old. He ruled for 44 years.
Saint Louis was celebrated for his piety and kindness towards the poor.
His life was lived for the welfare of his subjects, making him a model for future kings.

MENTAL HEALTH MINISTRY
Research shows that depression has nothing to do with being lazy or weak. It
often results from changes in brain chemistry or brain function. Therapy
and/or medication help people to recover.

Franciscan Thought for the Week
The gospel message is a call to intimacy, to love, to forgive, to embrace, to include,
to bring joy, to offer hope, to develop relationships,
to offer a path to a meaningful life, to challenge practices that may demean people.
~ Lester Bach, OFM, Seeking a Gospel Life
