HIS WORD TODAY
by Rev. William J. Reilly
Twenty-eighth Sunday
in Ordinary Time
October 9, 2016
“They stood at a distance from
him and raised their voices,
saying, ‘JESUS, MASTER!
Have pity on us!’ And when he
saw them he said, ‘Go show
yourselves to the priests.’…
‘Has none returned but this
foreigner returned to give
thanks to God?’ Then he said
to him, ‘Stand up and go, your
faith has saved you.’”
A familiar gospel passage,
usually
attached
to
our
celebration of Thanksgiving.
Nine did what they were told to
do, don’t chastise them for that.
One had a deeper insight to what
happened, and he was praised and
came back to Jesus.
As we soon will bring the Jubilee
Year of Mercy to a close we, like
the ten, call out ‘have pity on us.’
Why not take the seven works of
mercy and put a name or face on
them, as we find leprosy and hurt
in those around us. ‘Jesus
Master’, help me feed the hungry,
support a shelter. Help me ease
the thirst of someone. Assist me
in giving some good clothing to a
needy person. May we cry for the
refugees and welcome the
immigrant in our community.
Allow me the privilege of praying
for an incarcerated person, or lift
this or another family’s burden. A
phone call to an elderly shut in,
or a card to a person in rehab
makes Jesus’ compassion present.
He didn’t even touch the leper,
but spiritually reached out to him.

Simple things, but expressions of
compassion, mercy, making
Christ present to those whom
Pope
Francis
calls
the
marginalized.

WEEK OF OCTOBER 9, 2016
IN LOVING MEMORY OF
VERONICA PFEIFER
REQUESTED BY FRAN & PAUL WEEKS
THE GIFT GIVEN: “Fr om Conflict to Communion” is a
study document created by a joint commission of Lutherans and
Roman Catholics, in preparation for the commemoration of the
500th anniversary of the Reformation (Oct. 31, 2017). You are
invited to 3 evenings of discussion/prayer/fellowship with our
brothers and sisters of St. Mark RC Church in Sea Girt and Holy
Trinity Lutheran Church in Manasquan. We’ll discuss the
events that led to division in the Church 500 years ago, the differences that still exist between our denominations, but mostly
the common things we celebrate: our unity in Christ, the similarities in our theology, liturgy and practice of faith-active-inlove. Mark your calendar for 7-8:30 p.m. the 2nd, 3rd and 4th
Tuesdays in Oct.:
10/11 – St. Mark Church, 215 Crescent Pkwy, Sea Girt
10/18 – Holy Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church, 6 Osborn
Ave., Manasquan
10/25 – St. Denis Church
Let’s learn about our faith and grow in respect of others’
faith! In a secular world our Christian witness is needed! Lutherans and Roman Catholics gather with the “Gospel of Jesus
at the Center."
Curiosity – learn more about the history of “From Conflict to
Communion.” Tour the churches.
Community – come together to give witness to our Christian
faith, hope and love.
Christ – pray together in song and word as One in the Body of
Christ.

During Regular Business Hours.
Happy Feast of St. Denis! We recall the sacrifice
of St. Denis and his two companions, Sts. Rusticus and
Eleutherius, as they brought the Good News of Jesus Christ
to the people of France, and Paris in particular. Their mission made the heathen priests angry and they incited the
Roman Governor to put a stop to St. Denis teaching about
Jesus; St. Denis and his companions were beheaded about
the year 275. St. Denis is one of the 14 Holy Helpers, early
saints asked to intercede for a person in an old but good,
private devotion. We pray for the intercession of the “Holy
Helper” for all of us.
On the occasion of our patronal feast, I hope that
you have taken part in the Ministry Fair. For the strength of
our parish, and honestly, to continue the mission of St. Denis to make the Gospel known, in word and deed, to a world
that needs it, we all must do our part. We all must take part
in the work of our parish in some way and we must all be
part of the events that we have in order to grow as a faith
community. At one time, you feel a call to participate in a
ministry, and at another time you feel called to be served by
a certain ministry/event. We need to feed and be fed for
spiritual growth and well-being.
Please be aware that there will not be a new priest
assigned to the parish. Fr. Villanova has graciously accepted my invitation to assist us on the weekends, along with the
amazing Fr. Joe Miele. I am thankful for the ministry of
these two priests and also Deacons Gary and George.
Hopefully, you see the need to pray for vocations and invite
men to think about the priesthood and deaconate as ways to
serve God and his people. Please invite them to speak to us
to learn more about it.

MOVED BY MERCY - RESPECT LIFE MONTH 2016
“Moved by Mercy” is the theme this year, during the Jubilee
Year of Mercy, for Respect Life Month. The inspirational quote
comes from Pope Francis: We are called to show mercy because
mercy has first been shown to us. This year we are called to
Respect Life through the lens of Mercy. We respect life as an
aspect of mercy. First, we realize that God has shown us mercy
by giving us our life. We were given being by the Holy Spirit,
the Lord and giver of Life. We were made in the image and
likeness of God and not aborted. God has shown us mercy indeed. Therefore, we should be moved by mercy and act –
through the spiritual and corporal works of mercy – on behalf of
the right to life of each person. No one should be made to feel
that it would be better if they did not exist. (In 2015, 48% of
those who died under Oregon’s assisted suicide law cited being
a “burden” on family, friends, or caregivers as a reason for their
suicide. If only they were shown mercy to not feel that way.)
As we reflect on the theme, Moved by Mercy, may God inspire
us to be agents of mercy. As an old Irish proverb says, “It is in
the shelter of each other that people live.” Indeed, we are created to depend on one another and walk together in the joys and
sorrows of life, with faith, hope and love.
BECOME A HOSPICE VOLUNTEER– Training will be
provided by members of the VNAHG Hospice Team on 3 consecutive Thursdays: 10/13, 10/20, & 10/27, 9:30 am-3:30 pm

St. Denis offers a Recovery Ministry dedicated to
anyone recovering from any of life's challenges.
You may be recovering from addiction to alcohol
or a co-dependent relationship, fighting a gambling obsession,
be a child-abuse survivor, your parents may have been alcoholics, you may have a child addicted to heroin, or anything in between. The point is that we are all affected by the struggles of
life and may try to find solace in our favorite escape/addiction,
or be close to someone spiraling out of control in their own escape/addiction. Join the St. Denis Recovery Ministry on Thursday at 10:00 am or 7:00 pm in the St Denis church basement as
we support one another while learning about recovery from
life's difficulties using the Life Recovery Bible. This is a Christcentered recovery through scripture support group and class. All
are welcome. Call Laura C. @ 848-333-7085 or email [email protected]. Find us on FaceBook at St Denis
Recovery Ministry.

weekend to see how you can serve at your parish and let us pray
for one another and for Fr. Michael in his time of transition, and
for all who live within the boundary of our parish.
Prayer in Honor of Saint Denis
O God, who did confer your saving faith on the people of France
through the holy Bishop and Martyr Denis, and did glorify
him before and after his death by many miracles; grant us,
through his intercession, that the Faith practiced and preached by
him be our light on the way of life, so that we may be preserved
from all anxieties of conscience, and if by human frailty we have
sinned, we may return to You speedily by true Confession and
penance. Through Christ our Lord. Amen
Novena
Glorious servant of God, St. Denis, with intense love you devoted
yourself to Christ after learning to know Him through the Apostle
St. Paul, and did preach His saving Name to the nations and did
not shrink from Martyrdom; implore for us God's Blessings for
these our intentions (mention intentions). Through your help, St.
Denis, may we have continual growth in the knowledge and love
of Jesus, so that we may experience that peace which He alone
can give. Help our parish, by your powerful intercession, to serve
God with willing hearts, and show God's Love and Mercy to all
we meet, so to give God glory and attain the eternal bliss of Heaven. Amen.
