OCTOBER 11, 2015 TWENTY- EIGHTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
DEAR PARISHIONERS and VISITORS:
In Canada, we celebrate Thanksgiving day on Monday, October 12. Most people plan get-togethers on this week-endwith family and friends. It is important to thank people who carefor us, assist us and support us. Speaking words of gratitude toeach other and showing it by our actions deepens and strengthensour relationships.
On the spiritual level, being grateful and thankful to God isvery important. Psalm 92.1 says “it is good to give thanks to theLord, always and for everything.” St. Vincent de Paul often said”the grateful heart doesn’t want for anything because you cannotbe both grateful and unhappy at the same time.”
On this Thanksgiving weekend, let us rightly give thanks toGod for the blessings He gives us: family, material goods, ourCatholic faith and parish, health, our citizenship, the forgivenessof sins and other graces from God. The Eucharist is the greatestprayer of thanksgiving – we give thanks to the Lord at Mass forall He has done for us especially His saving death andresurrection.
May we also resolve to be even more committed to show ourgratitude to God by sharing our blessings with others . The 2015Project Advance appeal is an excellent way for us as members ofthe Archdiocese to share God’s gifts to us with others who havereal needs. Our Cathedral parish benefits as well through therebate program which returns offerings to Holy Rosary once ourshare of the Archdiocesan program is covered.
If you have participated already this year in the ProjectAdvance appeal – thank you! If you have not so far, we plan tosend you a letter soon inviting you to make a sacrificial offeringto Project Advance. When you receive it please prayerfullyconsider your participation.
Wishing you and your family a blessed Thanksgivingweekend . . .
Fr. Galvon

Prayer of Thanksgiving
Almighty God of all mercies,
Father, we Your unworthy servants,
Give You most humble and hearty
thanks for all Your goodness and loving
kindness to us and to all your people.
We bless You for our creation,
preservation, and all blessings of this life.
But, above all, we thank You for Your
infinite love in the redemption of the world
by our Lord Jesus Christ, for the means of
grace and the hope of glory.
And, we pray, give us a due sense of all
Your mercies, that our heart may declare
Your praise not only with our lips but in our
lives, by giving ourselves to Your service and
by walking before You in holiness and
righteousness all our days;
Through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom,
with You and the Holy Spirit, be all honor
and glory world without end. Amen.

Jesús se dispone a seguir su camino
De pronto un hombre corrió a su encuentro. Correr significa
que tiene un interés grande. El hecho de arrodillarse ante
Jesús muestra su veneración al Maestro, a quien da el
nombre de " Bueno ". Lo que interesa al hombre es saber
qué debe hacer para heredar la " vida eterna ". Aquí la vida
eterna es la vida futura escatológica, la vida por excelencia
y definitiva. Jesús reacciona ante el calificativo de bueno,
que le da aquel hombre: " Nadie es bueno sino sólo Dios
".
La Palabra en tu vida
¡ Qué actual es el mensaje de Jesús ! Vivimos en una
sociedad que privilegia el tener y no el ser. Los seres
humanos que tienen riquezas son los que pueden opinar en
nuestra sociedad. Y, en algunos casos, hasta disponer de
la vida de los demás.
Padre Santo, haz que desapeguemos nuestro corazón de
las cosas pasajeras.

STEWARDSHIP IN OUR PARISH
Stewardship Profile of the Week
LUCAS, YOLANDA, JACEK and
PETER
Jacek and Yolanda have been
coming to the cathedral for 22 years.
Jacek is an usher and Knight. Sons
Lucas and Peter are altar servers.
Peter is also a Knight.
Motto: “Not unto us but to Your
Name be glory.”
Thanks, Jacek and Yolanda, for your
devotion to the cathedral as a family,
and for inspiring your sons to offer
service. Thanks, Lukas and Peter,
for your reverent devotion as altar
servers, and thanks, Peter, for
showing other young men a model of faithful service as a
Knight.
STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
Jesus offers a hard lesson regarding wealth and possessions
in today’s Gospel. The rich man whom he encountered could
not part with his possessions as a condition to becoming a
disciple of Jesus. W ould our response be the same as the rich
man? Do we place our trust in our money and possessions
instead of trusting in God’s generosity? Do we seek security in
our possessions? Good stewards realize that their possessions
must not possess them, lest those possessions block their
relationship with the Lord. www.catholicstewardship.org
