Dear St. Matthew Parishioners, Families and Friends,
Month of the Rosary
Let us remember that this month of October is dedicated to the Rosary. Consider taking some time out of our busy lives to pray the Rosary, as a family or meditating alone. This would be an ideal opportunity to introduce the rosary to young children. Start out with using the beads. Children need to touch, count and know what the different beads mean. At the end of this time the child would have acquired a loving and respectful familiarity with the beads. Sometime along this apprenticeship you should introduce the real meaning of the rosary by telling your children the story of our salvation as expressed in the fifteen mysteries, as a simple story. John Paul II called the Rosary his favorite prayer. He offered mass in Fatima on May 13th, 1982, to give thanks for Mary’s intercession in saving his life a year earlier. He reminded the faithful that the message of Fatima is a call to conversion and repentance, the nucleus of the message of the Gospel. He re-consecrated the world to Mary’s Immaculate Heart and called all to prayer, especially the Rosary. (Continued on page 2)

Dear St. Matthew Parishioners, Families and Friends, (cont’d)
Let us consider this beautiful prayer of the Rosary as a means that we too can use in order to draw closer to Jesus and Mary by meditating on the great mysteries of our salvation. Blessings, Ann Connelly
Dear Mother, I bring Thee roses Because they are so sweet,
But lilies, my favorite flowers I am placing at Thy feet.
Accept with each Hail Mary
A rose for Thy crown so bright; Please don't forget the lilies, The lilies so pure and white.
Let them be a bond of love
And understanding rare, And send a blessing from above
In answer to my prayer.
Loneliness would be unknown If more people came to Thee, With their trials and sorrows
And said their Rosary.
With each Hail Mary, they would find Their load much lighter grow, And in humility, kiss the cross In peace, would onward go.
Queridos Parroquianos , Recordemos que el mes de octubre está dedicado al Rosario . Considere la posibilidad de hacer un poco de tiempo para rezar el Rosario en familia o meditar a solas. Esta es una oportunidad ideal para dar a conocer el rosario a los niños pequeños. Comience con el uso de las cuentas. Los niños tienen que tocar , contar y saber lo que significan los diferentes misterios y así un día, el niño adquiri-rá una familiaridad amorosa y respetuosa con las perlas. En algún momento a lo largo de este aprendizaje se debe intro-ducir el verdadero significado del rosario diciendo a sus hijos la historia de nuestra salvación, como se expresa en los quin-ce misterios, como una historia simple. Juan Pablo II llamó al Rosario su oración favorita. Ofreció una misa en Fátima el 13 de mayo de 1982 para dar gracias a Dios por la intercesión de María por haber salvado su vida un año antes. Recordó a los fieles que el men-saje de Fátima es una llamada a la conversión y al arrepenti-miento, el núcleo del mensaje del Evangelio. Re consagró el mundo al Corazón Inmaculado de María y llamó a todos a la oración, especialmente el Rosario . Vamos a considerar esta hermosa oración del Rosario , como un medio que nosotros también podemos utilizar con el fin de acercarnos más a Jesús y María meditando en los grandes misterios de nuestra salvación. Bendiciones, Ann Connelly
Oración del Papa Francisco a Nuestra Señora del Santo Rosario
«Virgen del Santo Rosario, Madre del Redentor, mujer de nuestra tierra encumbrada por encima de los cielos, humilde
sierva del Señor, proclamada Reina del mundo, desde lo profundo de nuestras miserias recurrimos a ti. Con confianza
de hijos miramos tu rostro dulcísimo. Coronada con doce estrellas, tú nos llevas al misterio del Pa-dre, tú resplandeces de Espíritu Santo, tú nos donas a tu Niño divino, Jesús, nuestra esperanza, única salvación del mundo.
Brindándonos tu Rosario, tú nos invitas a contemplar su Rostro. Tú nos abres su corazón, abismo de alegría y de dolor, de luz y de gloria, misterio del Hijo de Dios, hecho hombre por no-sotros. A tus pies sobre las huellas de los santos, nos sentimos
familia de Dios. Madre y modelo de la Iglesia, tú eres guía y sostén seguro.
Haz que seamos un corazón solo y un alma sola, pueblo fuer-te en camino hacia la patria del cielo.
Te entregamos nuestras miserias, los tantos caminos del odio y de la sangre, las mil antiguas y nuevas pobrezas y sobre
todo nuestro pecado. A ti nos encomendamos, Madre de mi-sericordia: obtennos el perdón de Dios, ayúdanos a construir
un mundo según tu corazón. Oh Rosario bendito de María, cadena dulce que nos anuda a Dios, cadena de amor que nos hace hermanos, no te dejare-mos jamás. En nuestras manos serás arma de paz y de per-
dón, estrella de nuestro camino. Y nuestro beso a ti, en nuestro último respiro, nos sumergirá
en una ola de luz, en la visión de la Madre amada y del Hijo divino, anhelo de alegría de nuestro corazón con el Padre y
el Espíritu Santo».

The Gabriel Project – Second Collection October 13/14th 2018
Dear parishioners, The Gabriel Project ministry, serving the needs of pregnant women, has been in operation for almost 9 years here at St Matthew’s. Our sincere grati-tude to Msgr. Talesfore for again permitting a
second collection next weekend, October 13/14th. We serve all pregnant mothers in need through the 24-hour helpline (800-910-2848) and extend our help to non-pregnant moms as well. Our clients have many and varied needs including emotional support, baby items, financial assistance, help accessing pre-natal care etc. This year, thanks to your generosity, we have been able to provide new strollers and car seats – a basic, not a luxury, cribs, mattresses, bedding, clothing, diapers and wipes, diaper bags, and toiletries for the wellbeing of our newborn ba-bies and their families. These small acts of kindness help to ease the burden of poverty often experienced by mothers who are blessed with the gift of new life. We wish to acknowledge our neighboring parishes: St Gregory, St Catherine, and Our Lady of Angels, for their contributions of material goods to aid our efforts. It’s won-derful to collaborate and it has enabled us to share items with other parishes throughout the archdiocese where there is need. Your financial contributions help build a Culture of Life, One Mom and One Family at a time. Thank you and God bless you all, Janet Healy and The Gabriel Project Team

Un regalo perfecto Lea la versión completa en
bit.ly/un-regalo-perfecto-2018. Poco después de nacer mi hijo Charlie,* que tiene síndrome
de Down, un visitante preguntó si era “leve, moderado o seve-ro”, refiriéndose a su nivel de impedimento cognitivo. Me que-dé sorprendida. En mis brazos tenía a mi hermoso bebé, a quien no se podía clasificar fácilmente. Es como mirar un vitral desde afuera: los
colores se ven oscuros, y no se pueden dis-tinguir bien las figuras. Sin embargo, desde dentro, cuando el sol lo atraviesa, el efecto puede ser brillante. Dentro de nuestra familia, el amor ilumina nuestra vida con
Charlie. Lo que puede parecer sombrío para otros, tal vez in-cluso insoportable, realmente está lleno de belleza y color. Nuestro amor no tiene nada que ver con sus capacidades. Lo amamos simplemente por lo que es, y comprender esto nos enseña una verdad fundamental: cada vida es un regalo bueno y perfecto.

A Perfect Gift Read the full version at usccb.org/perfect-gift.
Soon after the birth of my son Charlie,* who has Down syn-drome, a visitor asked whether he was “mild, moderate, or se-vere”—referring to his level of cognitive impairment. I was shocked. In my arms I held my beautiful baby boy, who defied easy categorization. It’s like looking at stained glass from the outside: the colors look dark, and you can’t see the figures. But inside, with the sun shining through, the effect can be brilliant. From inside our family, love illuminates our life with Charlie. What may seem dreary to others, perhaps even unbearable, is actually filled with beauty and color. Our love has nothing to do with his abilities. We love him simply because of who he is, and understanding this teaches us a fundamental truth: every life is a good and perfect gift. *Name changed for privacy.
