Even more, they seal their own death when they answer Jesus that those violent tenants will be killed. The death of the chief priests and elders will be that the kingdom of God, the vine of life, will be taken away from them. Those who are faithful and accept the Son, receive the Life only God’s kingdom can bring. They receive the very life of God. Upcoming Events of Interest Respect Life Prayer Chain ~ Sunday, October 5 @ 2 PM Trunk or Treat ~ October 17 @ 6:30 PM Party on the Plaza ~ Saturday, October 18 following the 4:15 PM Mass All Souls Masses ~ November 1 and 2 Parish Auction Dinner Dance ~ November 15 @ 6 PM St. Cecilia Sing ~ November 16 @ 2 PM Thanksgiving Eve Mass ~ November 26 @ 7 PM New Server Training Today/Sunday ~ A server training session will be conducted today, Sunday, October 5 following the 5:15 PM Mass.

The Synod of Bishops, created at Vatican Council II and meeting first in 1967, meets at fixed times to assist the pope in his governance of the Church by addressing questions of faith, morals and the Church’s activity in the world. The upcoming synod is what is called “extraordinary” and will only be the third of its kind called for by a pope. An extraordinary synod consist of a smaller body of bishops, with others involved as well, to address a topic of urgency. Pope Francis calls this extraordinary synod, not in anticipation of any change in doctrine, but to address the growing challenges facing the family in today’s world. I would encourage all of us to remember the work of the synod in our prayers. Prayer for the Extraordinary Synod on the Family Jesus, Mary and Joseph, in you we contemplate the splendor of true love, to you we turn with trust. Holy Family of Nazareth, grant that our families too may be places of communion and prayer, authentic schools of the Gospel and small domestic Churches. Holy Family of Nazareth, may families never again experience violence, rejection, and division: may all who have been hurt or scandalized find ready comfort and healing. Holy Family of Nazareth, may the approaching Synod of Bishops make us once more mindful of the sacredness and inviolability of the family, and its beauty in God’s plan. Jesus, Mary, Joseph, graciously hear our prayer.

One of my favorite books about St. Francis is Francis, The Journey and the Dream by Murray Bodo. It is a biography that is interlaced with Franciscan spirituality and poetry. I first read it about twenty years ago and have re-read it many times. He presents Francis’ interior life in a manner that is reflective and moving, yet down-to-earth, with insights that speak to many situations that we often worry about today. The style of the writing often reminds me of Psalms. Francis is known for embracing “Lady Poverty”. He aligned himself with those in need rather than with those who had privilege. In Bodo’s biography of Francis he writes “The town of Assisi was divided into the majores and minores, and Francis had moved from the “greater ones” to the “lesser ones” when he finally met Jesus. He called his brotherhood the Frates Minores, the Lesser Brothers, and he wanted them always to be associated with the poor, and the lesser people in society. This was a constant source of amazement to people. People wanted to “better” their condition and become more wealthy. This secured their castles against the storms of circumstances and their faith in money was their foundation. Francis and the brothers had battered against these frail foundations, and in the course of years, many in Umbria had come to see that the brothers were right.” Francis and the brothers embraced “Lady Poverty” to be in solidarity with those in need. The ways and the words of Jesus were the foundation and cornerstone for them. Our Pope Francis took on the name Francis and has, in his capacity as Pope, given us examples of ways that we can live out the essence of St. Francis’ spirituality in our world today. He has challenged us several times to consider our faith and Jesus as our solid foundation and our cornerstone, not privileged association, power or wealth. In an address at World Youth Day in July of 2013, Pope Francis stated that, “ He (St. Francis of Assisi) understood that true joy and riches do not come from the idols of this world—material things and the possession of them—but are to be found only in following Christ and serving others.” In the prayer of St. Francis we pray, “Where there is sadness let me sow joy.” In serving others we can know this joy.

S T E W A R D S H I P Weekly Financial Report September 22 – 28, 2014 Children & Stewardship Operating Income and Expenses Every parent wants to raise children who share and give generously. When our children someday meet God face Church & School Income to face, we want to know that they will hear Jesus say to Envelopes 15,535.00 them the same words the master said to those who used 850.88 their talents wisely, “Well done, my good and faithful Loose Electronic 2,075.00 servant...Come, share your master’s joy.” (Matt 25:21) However, raising a generous child is a challenge in a society that constantly teaches children to want more and more things for themselves. One of the key factors in teaching children to be generous is to let them see you giving. After all, children mimic what they see, not what they hear. Stock Dividend/Matching 0.00 Misc Income (Baptisms, weddings, etc.) 0.00 Pre-School Tuition 0.00 Today many donations to the parish Offertory may be made electronically, monthly, quarterly, or via mail. Thus, children may never actually see their parents give. Therefore, it is important that parents talk with children about the charitable gifts the family makes. If you would like to increase your giving, you might even ask your kids about ways the family budget could be adjusted so that there is more to share with God. Their suggestions might surprise you! Hot Lunch Use an allowance to help teach stewardship. We all know that money can’t buy happiness. Wealthy people can be just as unhappy as poorer people. Rather, happiness comes from being content with what we have and feeling like we are making a difference in the world. We can put our children on the path to a happy and successful life by teaching them how to use and manage money so that it brings them contentment, fills their needs and allows them to help others.
