happy thanksgiving! - Our Lady of the Airways
28th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME October 13th - 19th 2014 O God, when I have food, help me to remember the hungry; When I have work, help me to remember the jobless; When I have a home, help me to remember those who have no home at all; When I am without pain, help me to remember those who suffer, And remembering, help me to destroy my complacency; bestir my compassion, and be concerned enough to help; By word and deed, those who cry out for what we take for granted. Amen." HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

OLA CHARISMATIC GROUP REFLECTING ON THE PASTORAL PLAN OF THE ARCHDIOCESE OF TORONTO I Parish Life And all who believed were together and had all things in common... – Acts 2:44 Our parishes are spiritual homes where we meet one another to encounter Christ. Our plan calls on us to make our 225 parishes places of welcome and hospitality, both for those who are with us each week and those who return home after many years. We will prepare ourselves with care each week to celebrate the sacraments and encourage attentive and active participation from everyone. We will support our priests and deacons as they lead the way, and when asked to assist, we will respond. We're all in this together. It's important that we celebrate the many parishes already engaged in outreach ministries and programs that support the family, the domestic church. We can learn from their wonderful example.

Come far sedere alla tavola di questo “banchetto di grasse vivande, di cibi succulenti, di vini raffinati” un’umanità apparentemente senza appetito? Questo compito appassionante di tutta la Chiesa - questa nuova evangelizzazione - deve occupare tutti i figli del nuovo popolo di Dio. Ne va di mezzo la vita e la vita del mondo. Sembra che annunciare l’invito con un nuovo ardore, con nuovi metodi, con una nuova espressione non sia un mezzo superato. Alcuni tra coloro che trasmettono questo invito alle nozze saranno forse maltrattati, forse uccisi. Ci saranno certamente quelli che rifiutano l’invito. Poco importa. C’è gente agli angoli delle strade. Basta annunciare con convinzione che noi andiamo a un banchetto, che l’invito di Cristo è arrivato fino a noi e che noi conosciamo le portate. Basta sapere che noi possiamo tutto in colui che ci conforta. L’annunciamo così? Siamo convincenti perché abbiamo già partecipato a questo banchetto? Non c’è niente di più ripugnante di coloro le cui parole ripetono quello che dicono gli altri, senza dare prova di alcuna esperienza. THOU SHALL NOT PARK!
