us to pray together for our dear departed. After the Mass of Remembrance there

will be a reception for the parishioners, their families and friends.

Live the Liturgy - Inspiration for the Week When we take the time to prayerfully reflect on Scripture, we discover that

we find pathways to God. Sacred Scripture allows us to know God more deeply

and heightens our awareness of how God acts in all of the events of our lives.

Sacred Scripture tells the story of God's love relationship with His people and

demonstrates His patient willingness to wait for us to freely love Him in return.

XXIX Sunday in Ordinary Time Gospel Meditation - Encourage Deeper understanding of

Scripture

"Will not God then secure the rights of His chosen ones who

call out to Him day and night?" The widow in today's parable

didn't give up. She kept "bothering" the judge by coming to him

and asking for a decision in her favor. Ultimately, her persistence

caught his attention and influenced his behavior. Jesus seems

to be teaching us today that this quality of faithful persistence is a

good one to have. Thus, He advises us to call out to God not

once, not twice, but "day and night." This is a fitting image for

the idea of continual prayer; it goes on all the time without ceasing.

As this Gospel reading says in the opening line, Jesus

wanted to teach His disciples how to "pray always without

becoming weary." It's interesting that the method He used for this

instruction was to emphasize the reward of such persistent prayer.

The parable's conclusion assures us that for those who pray

without giving up, God "will see to it that justice is done for them

speedily." Perhaps this attractive promise is supposed to keep us

from losing hope, from throwing in the towel, from becoming

"weary" when our requests don't seem to be getting heard.

Following the example of this determined widow, we need not fear to repeatedly make our requests known to God. In fact,

we should make a point of it! If we only offer our prayers of

petition halfheartedly, without real conviction, persistence, or

sincerity, they are not as powerful as they could be. But when we

truly commit to taking these requests before the Lord, day after

day (and night after night!) then we are displaying a kind of

profound faith in God's ability to act on our behalf. So, full of

hope and trust, let's keep "bothering" this truly just Judge!

World Mission Sunday this Weekend This weekend, we will celebrate World Mission Sunday.

Pope Francis invites the entire Church to support the mission

dioceses in Africa, Asia, the Pacific Islands, and parts of Latin

America and Europe, where priests, religious and lay leaders

serve the world's most vulnerable communities. Please keep the

Pope's missions in your prayers, and be generous in next week's

collection for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.

Feast of Saint John Paul II: October 22 It is traditional to celebrate saints' feast days

on the anniversary of their deaths, but that of John

Paul II (22 October) is celebrated on the

anniversary of his papal inauguration. Born Karol

Wojtyla in Krakow, Pope John Paul II became the

first-ever Polish pope. He came of age in the early

20th century and lived through both the Nazi and communist

occupations of Poland. His resistance activities were cultural,

operating an underground theater company and entering a secret

seminary. Karol was ordained a priest in 1946 and later a bishop.

He was elected pope in 1978. As pope, the interests that captured his heart as a young man continued -- his pastoral concern for

young people, his philosophical emphasis on the human person,

and his devotion to Mary and to the mercy of God. St. John Paul

II, pray for us! John Paul, who was pope from 1978 to 2005, was

canonized, that is, declared a saint, by Pope Francis in 2014. on

Divine Mercy Sunday.

Praying for Missionaries Let us ask God’s blessing on those men and women from

other countries who are in our midst as priests, brothers, and sis-

ters. And when we pray, let us also ask God to change our hearts

so that we will again produce a society that brings forth more

vocations. Let us pray...

God of every nation,

you commissioned us at Pentecost

to go and make disciples of all nations.

When we take up your commission,

we become missionaries of your Gospel.

Bless all missionaries in our communities with your love that surpasses all understanding.

Change our hearts so that we become

the missionaries you expect us to be.

We ask this through Jesus,

the first missionary of your Gospel.

Amen.

Respect Life Month Baby Drive!!! October is Respect Life Month! The Breath

of Life Ministry will be collecting baby items

from Oct. 12-27. All donations will help families

in need or crisis meet the needs of their newborn.

The donations will be distributed through the Focus Pregnancy

Center, Women’s Care Center and the Margaret Home. The most

critical needs are: clothes for newborns such as onesies,

layettes, baby bottles with nipples, baby blankets, baby

shampoo & lotion, baby wipes, pacifiers and formula. FYI,

many couples choose an abortion out of fear due to not being able

to meet the day to day needs of caring for a newborn. Thank you

for your generous response! Sonja Stenclik and Dorothy Hayes

(Co-Chairpersons of the Breath of Life Ministry).

zmarlych, przyjaciól i znajomych do uczestniczenia w Eucharystii

w Piątek 8-go Listopada o godzinie 6:00 wieczorem. Wieczny

odpoczynek racz im dać Panie…

Placki Ziemniaczane w Niedzielę 27 Października Serdecznie zapraszamy wszystkich na wspaniałe Placki

Fall - Back to School Food Drive! Now that school is back in session many school age children

receive breakfast and lunch at school. But, many times these

same children come home to an empty cupboard or refrigerator

and often go to bed hungry. Parents are trying to

make at least simple meals but struggle to have

the needed ingredients. Your donations of even

JUST ONE can, box or bag of food can provide

at least something to ease the pain of hunger. The

GREATEST NEEDS are: crackers, canned

fruits and vegetables, spaghetti, macaroni-elbow, rotini, bows

and sauce PLUS CEREAL and rice.

XXIX Niedziela Zwykła Wiara i modlitwa są ze sobą bardzo ściśle związane. Kto ma

małą wiarę, modli się mało, rzadko kiedy, i przede wszystkim

prosi Boga o rzeczy mało wartościowe. Dlatego też Bóg nie

wysłuchuje takich próśb.. Kto ma wielką wiarę, modli się głębią

swego ducha i bezustannie, i prosi o dary wielkie, nawet o Dar

Ducha Świętego. Taki człowiek, wcześniej czy później, zorientuje

się, że jego modlitwy zostały wysłuchane przez Pana.

Aby nauczyć się więcej i bezustannie modlić, prośmy

zawsze naszego Pan aby przymnożył nam wiary.

”Ewangelia jest radością trudu — i jest równocześnie trudem

radości, trudem zbawienia”. ~St. John Paul II

"The Church does not offer to the people of today riches that

pass, nor does she promise them a merely earthly happiness. But

she distributes to them the goods of divine grace."

~St. John XXIII
