Our Parish Life Director, priests, and all our parish family extend to you the hospitality of Jesus Christ. If you would like more information about our parish or wish to join our faith community, please visit the Welcome Center on Sunday mornings or contact the Pastoral Center. Holy Family Mission Statement Holy Family Church is a welcoming Catholic Eucharistic community of disciples connecting faith with life and reaching out to those in need. HOLY FAMILY CHURCH Sharing as Beloved Disciples through Grace, Gratitude and Generosity Holy Family’s theme this year is: Sharing as Beloved Disciples. We have integrated this theme into the different facets of our parish life through the prism of Grace, Gratitude and Generosity. Spending time in prayer with God, sharing our gifts and talents in our parish community and in the whole world, giving generously to support the church and its ministerial and outreach programs—all these are ways in which we are invited to share as Beloved Disciples. Cambria Smith, our Parish Life Director, will speak at all the Masses this weekend on the state of Holy Family as a vibrant community of disciples following the path of renewed relationship with Jesus. During the following week, you will receive a brochure which will invite you to consider your commitment of Grace, Gratitude and Generosity to the parish. A commitment card will also be enclosed which you may bring with you to Mass the following Sunday or mail back to the Pastoral Center. You are all invited to use your God-given gifts to serve one another, our Church and our world. 1501 FREMONT AVENUE SOUTH PASADENA, CALIFORNIA 91030 Cambria Smith, Parish Life Director Reverend Jose Parathanal, Priest Minister Fr.

It has been a few months since Cambria made her appeal for Together in Mission. So far, our parishioners have paid $146,515 the $154,658 pledged. We have made great strides toward our goal of $146,862, but still need to raise $347 by November. Can you help us reach our goal? No amount is too small (or too big!). If we exceed our goal, the surplus will be used to support Holy Family’s ministries. The 35 parishes and 52 schools that receive funding from this 2013 campaign are depending on the generosity of those who contribute, in order to continue providing sacramental, ministerial, and educational services to those who live in the most financially disadvantaged areas of the Archdiocese. If you have not already made a donation, please call Carol Joe at 626-403-6101 to arrange a contribution. If you have already done so, please accept our thanks and appreciation for helping to keep our parishes and schools alive and functioning in God’s name. ENDOWMENTS Holy Family Church established two endowment trust funds in March 2001. The first one is the Parish Endowment Trust Fund and its purpose is “Solely to perpetuate, support, and uphold the work of Holy Family Parish, South Pasadena.” Through generous donations from the people and friends of Holy Family, we will be able to support our many ministries. This fund will also enable Holy Family to care for and safeguard its historic church building. The second fund is the Education Endowment Trust Fund. Its purpose is “Solely to perpetuate, support, and uphold the work of Holy Family School, Religious Education Program and additional Educational Programs for Children.” This fund will assure the continued education and religious formation of our children. By supporting one or both of these funds, you are ensuring that the legacy of our vibrant faith-filled parish will be enjoyed by future generations. SAFEGUARD THE CHILDREN Training Sessions The Archdiocese has mandated that all adults who work with or around children in any capacity must know how to recognize and prevent child sexual abuse by attending a “Protecting God’s Children” VIRTUS awareness session. All adults are encouraged to attend VIRTUS sessions at Holy Family. Please pre-register by visiting www.virtus.org and click on “Registration.” If you need assistance with registration, contact Elizabeth Calciano Fagan, 626.437.3865. Virtus Re-certification Anyone who attended a Virtus class prior to December 31, 2009 needs to be Recertified. Classes at other parishes may be available. Call the Pastoral Center at 626.799.8908 for more information. Fingerprinting View the complete fingerprinting schedule at the Welcome Center or at: http://www.archdiocese.la/about/ hr/index.php or call to schedule an appointment. Appointments are still necessary to facilitate a smooth operation in the field. Tuesday, November 5, San Gabriel Mission, San Gabriel, 626.457.3035 Tuesday, November 12, Our Lady of Guadalupe, Los Angeles, 323.261.8051 Did You Know? What is ‘relational bullying’? Relational bullying is unwarranted, persistent, unwelcome behavior in the form of criticism, isolation, or fabricated allegations that can damage relationships. Examples include social exclusion (“You can’t be with us”), spreading rumors (“Did you hear…?), and withholding friendship (“I won’t be your friend if you…”). Though relational bullying can often seem ambiguous to outside observers and often garners less attention than physical bullying or verbal bullying, it should not be discounted simply as normal, adolescent behavior. In fact, several recent studies suggest relational bullying is more strongly related to emotional distress and teen depression than any other form of bullying. Make sure your child’s school does not tolerate such behavior among its students. WORSHIP THIRTY SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME November 10, 2013 “They are like angels; and they are the children of God because they are the ones who will rise.” - Luke 20:27-38 If you are interested in bringing up our gifts of bread & wine, please see an usher before Mass begins.

Contact: Pastoral Center, 626.799.8908 4 LITURGY MATTERS Session Three Continued Cardinal Tesserant, president for the day, announces that no vote will be taken in this session of the Council on the document on religious liberty. The curialists have taken advantage of a minor role to manipulate this postponement in order, they hope, to kill the document. Immediately, petitions are circulated on the floor of the Council, and nearly 1000 signers call on the Pope to intervene to stop this move. In the end, however, the Pope allows the minority to sway him, causing anger, resentment, and hostility. The Pope does promise, however, that this document will be treated first in the fourth session. There is also a move on the same day by the same minority to postpone actions on the document of ecumenism. To please the curialists, the Pope sends last-minute changes to this document. Cardinal Bea must write them into the document before the Council can vote on it. There is a general sense in the Council that time is running out because this was to have been the third and final session. Much work remains to be done, however, on multiple documents, including the important and controversial document on the church in the modern world. The minority has been successful in delaying final action on several items and a sense of gloom is palatable in these final days. November 20, 1964 a large majority approves the declaration on the church’s relation with non-Christians (Nostra Aetate). The document on Eastern churches is also approved the following day. Likewise the document on ecumenism is approved, including 19 out of the 40 last-minute changes ordered by the Pope. November 21, 1964 the third session is closed by Pope Paul VI, who takes the occasion to proclaim Mary the mother of the church, a move that disappoints the Protestant observers and adds to the general gloomy feeling at the end of the stormy session. Three documents are promulgated: the church, ecumenism, and Eastern churches, and that there will be a fourth session is also announced. Still Need BIBLE STUDY We'll be continuing our study of the Book of Isaiah this week. The prophet told the people of Jerusalem to give up their idols and trust in "The Holy One of Israel" 740 years before the birth of Christ. And he tells the people of southern California to do the same thing 2,700 years later! How did they respond and how will we respond to this message? Let's talk about it this Wednesday evening at 7:00 in the Galilee Room. FR. NIALL Fr. Niall has transitioned into an independent living facility that better suits his current physical needs. He continues to visit the sick, along with other priestly duties and still plans on being an active part of the Holy Family Community. To get in touch with him, please call the Pastoral Center front desk at 626.799.8908. CELEBRATING YOUNG ADULTS IN MINISTRY November 16, 2013 marks the 17th annual “Celebrating Young Adults in Ministry,” an event which recognizes the contributions that young adults make to the life of our local faith communities.

For you know someone who would like to take a journey of faith and explore the Catholic faith, please call Dawn 626 4036128 or email: [email protected]. Andrew Miller said: God’s grace and guidance and support of the church. HOLY FAMILY TUTORING MINISTRY You may just be the person one of our two Catholic schools needs to tutor a child in reading or math.

We would like to put two volunteers a morning to help children check out books. The library is open Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays only.

KINDRED SPIRITS Parish life can be strongly marriage and family oriented with few opportunities for single adults to feel comfortable at social gatherings or in vounteer capacities. Kindred Spirits was formed to create comfortable ways for single adults, over 40 to get to know each other, and to build supportive friendships that enhance their participation in parish life as well as create meaningful connections in their lives outside of church. Truly great friendships have evolved through sharing in social events, volunteer projects, and spiritual enrichment activities together. We attend the Saturday evening vigil Mass each first Saturday, followed by going to a different local restaurant. Other potential activities are discussed and plans made during these First Saturday gatherings. If you would like additional information, please email [email protected]. 7 COMMUNITY LIFE HOLY FAMILY 50+ CLUB Our regular meetings will be held on the first Thursday of the month at 1:30 p.m. followed by light refreshments.

Volunteer Coordinator, @contact 626-403-6113 or email: For bulletin submission, Bette Gillette, [email protected] ENVIRONMENTAL MINISTRY Holy Family’s neighboring city of Pasadena has a goal of becoming a zero-waste community. The Zero Waste Pasadena 2040 campaign aims to drastically reduce the amount of trash sent to landfills by virtually every waste producer in the community. In reality, “zero waste” doesn’t always translate to absolutely no waste, according to a 2011 report in the “Wall Street Journal, which marks success at 90 percent diversion or higher. According to Pasadena’s Department of Public Works, the benefits of a zero-waste objective are plentiful. Not only will the initiative help shape a healthier environment and save useful materials from languishing in landfills, but it may even boost hiring in the recycling and manufacturing industries. For Catholics, the importance of such efforts was made plain at Pope Francis’ installation Mass when he said, “The vocation of being a protector is not just something involving us Christians alone; it also has a prior dimension which is simply human, involving everyone. It means protecting all creation, the beauty of the created world, as the Book of Genesis tells us and as Saint Francis of Assisi showed us. It means respecting each of God’s creatures and respecting the environment in which we live.” Also, visit us on the Holy Family website at www.holyfamily.org/environmental-ministry/. The ministry meets on the third Thursday of each month at 7 p.m. in the Pastoral Center. New members are welcome. Contact Carol Polanskey at (626) 398-4262 or [email protected]. How many are your works, Lord! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.

GREG AND HOMEBOY LOOK TO HOLY FAMILY - Tattoo Removal Are you a Physician Assistant, Nurse Practitioner or Physician willing to give a few hours per month to Homeboy Industries’ tattoo removal program? Medical Professionals are needed to assist in the Homeboy tattoo removal program, Y’a Estuvo (I am ready). The Restorative Justice Ministries of Holy Family Church have been asked by Fr. Greg Boyle, S.J., to assist in recruiting physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners who are willing to give 2 to 5 hours per month to Homeboy Industries’ tattoo removal program. Physicians do not need a dermatology specialization, only a desire to share their gifts and to have a positive impact in the lives of everyone at Homeboy. Mental Health Workers Also Needed Homeboy is launching a new Volunteer Therapist Program called “Homeboy Heals”. Licensed psychologists, social workers and marriage and family therapists who are willing to donate from one to four hours each week, are encouraged to consider applying for our new Volunteer Therapist Program, Homeboy Heals. The Program has two parts. Option One asks providers within a 5mile radius of our facility to counsel one Homeboy client weekly – at no charge – in his or her private office. The Second Option, for those whose offices are further away, is to schedule a three to four hour block of time each week at our Homeboy Industries’ First Street location. Please contact Mary Schimmoller, Holy Family Volunteer Coordinator, at 626.403.6113. or [email protected].

Fundraisers include the Fair, Raffle and Auction. The income sources listed above in our Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 have made it possible to support our various ministries. Our ministries, under the Administration, Worship, Education/Formation, Community Life and Outreach Commissions, are recipients of your generous donations and allow us to bring our vision and mission to life. They are the embodiment of Holy Family’s mission as a “welcoming Catholic Eucharistic community of disciples connecting faith with life and reaching out to those in need”. Comparing the current year to last year, we show that generous donors have stepped up to give us an increase in special one-time donations as well as in regular Sunday collections. Expenses in all categories have gone up with inflation, with the exception of Ministry Support. A change in ministry youth programs has led to less spending, and food and other donations to the Giving Bank have reduced its cash outlay. Overall, we ended the year with a surplus of $234,000 that enables us to address our immediate needs as well as save for future goals like capital improvements and technology in education. As disciples of Christ, we extend a helping hand not only to those in our community, but also to those beyond our parish boundaries. We give to different causes through the Archdiocese. Through Together in Mission, the Archdiocese has been able to keep open many of its parishes and schools in financially disadvantaged neighborhoods. Mission Haiti has elevated the lives of the children and adults in the slums of Haiti.

Let us pause for a moment, and listen attentively to this week’spassage. THE WORD OF GOD Luke 20:27-38 Some Sadducees, those who deny that there is a resurrection, came forward and put this question to Jesus, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote for us, If someone’s brother dies leaving a wife but no child, his brother must take the wife and raise up descendants for his brother. Now there were seven brothers; the first married a woman but died childless. Then the second and the third married her, and likewise all the seven died childless. Finally the woman also died. Now at the resurrection whose wife will that woman be? For all seven had been married to her.” Jesus said to them, “The children of this age marry and remarry; but those who are deemed worthy to attain to the coming age and to the resurrection of the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. They can no longer die, for they are like angels; and they are the children of God because they are the ones who will rise. That the dead will rise even Moses made known in the passage about the bush, when he called out ‘Lord,’ the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; and he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.” FAITH SHARING Children: What is the possession that you love the most? And why? Teens: If God is in all people, how should it make a difference in the way I treat other people? Adults: How should it make a difference in the way we treat the gifts God has given Still Need IN THE SPOTLIGHT GRACE, GRATITUDE AND GENEROSITY Thank you to our fair chairs for making this year’s fair one of the best ever!
