Paul tells us that if we die with him, we will be resurrected and if we try every day to follow his example, we will live with him forever in heaven. The challenge is great, but the reward is fantastic. There is much work for us to do with our own lives and the world around us if we take up this challenge. We will need the Lord’s help but also each other’s help and support as we live this life together in and through Christ Jesus. This week let us pray with and for each other that we will be able to follow Christ’s example and die to self. Sincerely in the Lord, Father Kindon SCRIPTURE READINGS FOR THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 9, 2016 Monday Gal 4:22-24, 26-27, 31-5:1 October 10 Lk 11:29-32 Tuesday Gal 5:1-6 October 11 Lk 11:37-41 Wednesday Gal 5:18-25 October 12 Lk 11:42-46 Thursday Eph 1:1-10 October 13 Lk 11:47-54 Friday Eph 1:11-14 October 14 Lk 12:1-7 Saturday Eph 1:15-23 October 15 Lk 12:8-12 Use the website below to hear the readings of the day to reflect on them: hp://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/051115.cfm Saturday, October 8 Weekday 9:00am-Mass for Ed Kuehnle By The Kuehnle Family Anoinng of the Sick during Mass Rosary Prayed aer Mass 5:30 pm-Mass for Jane Duggan By John Duggan Sunday, October 9 28th Sunday In Ordinary Time 8:30 am– Mass for Henry Baker & Mary Jane Kelly By The Family No Confirmaon Class 11:00 am– Mass for St Claire Distler By Karlyn Distler Monday, October 10 Columbus Day 8:30am-Mass for Msgr Carl Hinrichsen By June Coates 9-10:00am-Eucharisc Adoraon No Confirmaon Class 7-8:00pm-CHRP Meeng Tuesday, October 11 St John XXIII 7:30pm-Mass for Angel Lopez By The Del Prado Family Wednesday, October 12 Weekday 8:30am-Mass for Steven Poole By The Rickert Family 6:45pm-Cantor Pracce 7:30pm-Choir Pracce Thursday, October 13 Weekday ~No Mass~ 3:00pm-Visit the Pt Pleasant Facility 6:30-7:30pm-Endow Friday, October 14 St Callistus 8:30 am-Mass for Ray Armento By Jovina Armento CHOP Lunch Delivery Saturday, October 15 St Teresa of Jesus 9:00am-Mass for Richard Scherr By Connie Scherr Anoinng of the Sick during Mass Rosary Prayed aer Mass 5:30 pm-Mass for Anthony Badolato By The Badolato Family Sunday, October 16 29th Sunday In Ordinary Time 8:30 am– Mass for Richard Scherr By Connie Scherr 11:00 am– Mass for Louis DeLia By The Cipriano Family The Sanctuary Lamp burns this week for .
