Welcome!
New parishioners are asked to register by calling or visiting the parish office
or by speaking to one of the parish staff.
WHY A CATHOLIC CHRISTIAN SHOULD BE A REGISTERED PARISHIONER
1. The precepts of the Church explained that: we need to belong to a parish
(your parish is the Church in the City where you are domiciled) and to contribute
to its support. Everyone should do this (Canon 107).
2. To identify yourself with a worshipping community of faith. Salvation comes
to us by God in community. Religion is not meant to be individualistic.
Membership in a parish community is the norm.
3. To allow the priest of the parish to know you so that Letters of
Recommendation can be given when needed. (Sponsorship/certificates)

Gospel: Luke 10:1-12, 17-20
Jesus sent forth seventy-two disciples to preach his
good news, telling them "the harvest is rich, but the
workers few." He also gave them detailed instructions on
how to act towards the people. Jesus then reminded
them not to be happy because of their power over evil,
but to rejoice in the salvation they would achieve.

LOVE IS A JOURNEY FROM THE WELL
TO THE INN
Fed by misunderstanding,
mistrust, opprobrium, and
violence “bad blood” has
persisted between the Samaritans
and the Jews. In 72 BC, when
Sargon of Assyria destroyed the
northern kingdom of Israel and its
capita, Samaria, he settled
outsiders in the land. These
outsiders were allowed to marry
with the Israelites remnants. The people worship the God of
Israel, but elements of foreign worship were also brought in.
In the Gospels we see how this enmity touches
Jesus and his disciples. And yet, the Samaritans figure
positively and prominently in the Gospels. Two “icons”
especially stand out: the Samaritan woman whom Jesus
encounters by Jacob’s well in Jn 4 and the “Good Samaritan”
in today’s Gospel parable. They not only complement each
other as woman and man; they also speak of the two
aspects of authentic Christian spirituality.
In November 2004, some 850 consecrated men and
women gathered in Rome for the First International
Congress of Consecrated Life on the theme “Passion for
Christ, Passion for Humanity.” Two images were offered:
The Samaritan woman at the well and the Good Samaritan.
The Samaritan woman is the icon of the “seekers of
the well,” of water quenching the thirst that makes us look
for the fullness and the joy of communion. The woman
realizes that the water from the well and the
companionship of a man are not enough, and she is
intrigued when Jesus offers her “living water,” drinking of
which one will never be thirsty again. Jesus here speaks of
the divine gift that he as Messiah gives. The woman leaves
behind her water jar; she recognized the Pone who fills her
entire being.
The Samaritan man in the parable reminds us that
the great commandment of love is not a matter of the mind.
What matters is not so much knowing who one’s neighbor is
as having in one’s heart the disposition to be moved by
compassion for whoever is in need.
The Samaritan woman and the Samaritan man are
the icons of the two inseparable aspects of love. The
Samaritan speaks of loving God with or whole heart,
desiring who alone fills our heart. The Samaritan man
declares that to love one’s neighbor is to feel compassion,
to care, and to help.
