Church’s ministry, whether they are homebound or
have been hospitalized. We are happy to bring the
Eucharist to those who cannot get out and attend
Mass. And if someone is ill or declining in health
the pastor is happy to come to their home, anoint
them and bring them Holy Communion.

THANK YOU
The Tabernacle Society would like to say “thank-you” to
everyone who made last week’s Fall Sale a success—
from those who cooked, served, crafted, sold raffle tickets, donated to the penny sale or just came to enjoy the
day with us. A new addition this year was our jewelry
table, loaded with any kind of new and used jewelry that
was artfully arranged and presented by Maggie Tenney
and her assistant “Monique.” We heard someone say it
was better than Jarrod’s!
Thank you to all the merchants and parishioners who
donated items for all the tables. You’re so generous, we
always have to find ways to fit it all in, and that’s a great
problem to have! We thank Sally Beattie and her kitchen
crew who prepared the 5-Star Chicken ‘n Biscuits dinner
that still has everyone talking! It was scrumptious. Sue
Tibbetts coordinated a wait staff comprised of several
young parishioners and a couple dedicated adults, and we
thank Kelley Brooks and Sara Beaulieu for heading up
the team, and Ansen Cassady, Luke Beaulieu, Lydia
Beaulieu, Catrina Boggess, Morgan Doolan, Amelia
Daigle, Delenn Brooks, Patty Foster, Marcie Nadeau,
Maria Nadeau and Elise Temkkit. (A retired teacher
who came to the sale said she had never seen such a wonderful group of young men and women working so hard
and being so polite.) Good job, everyone! We are really
proud of you!
We thank Ginny Gainer who made and donated the
beautiful quilt. It is so appreciated. And of course we
always want to thank those who helped lug, tug, set up,
take down, and set up again—Ben Pellerin, Tyler
Pellerin, J.D. Nadeau, Noah Nadeau, Jeannie Nadeau,
Dick Belmore, Don Doolan, Alan Brasseur and Leo
Enos and his crew. You all were awesome!
PRIZE WINNERS
The TABS Fall Sale rewarded several folks with door
prizes and raffle gifts. They included:
Paulette Couture of Jefferson won the Fruit Basket,
Sharon Sweeney won the Wine with accessories and
Marceline “Margo” Nadeau won the handmade cutting
board. Lorraine Patnaude of Jefferson won the quilt, and
Patty Gilman of Lancaster won the portable air conditioner. The $100 gift card to Shaw’s was won by Jean
Dubreuil of Lancaster, the $100 gas card by Crystal
Lewis of Gilman, VT, and the $100 of fuel oil by Bob
Reynolds of Dalton. Congratulations all!

THE BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE
The month of November is very important in the liturgical life of the
Church. It has been set aside as the
month during which we honor and
pray for the souls in purgatory and for
all those family members and friends who have gone before us. As a parish we make sure to pray for all the faithful departed at Masses during the month. November 1 the
Book of Remembrance was put in All Saints Church and
in St. Matthew Church. It lists the names of all those in
our parish who have died throughout the years. You are invited to sign the book with the names of those you have
loved and lost, so we may continue to pray for them
throughout the month of November, and throughout the
coming years as well.

PRECIOUS IN GOD’S EYES
By Kimberly Baker
Every year on November 2, the Church observes the Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed (All Souls’ Day). This is a time
when we remember all who have died and commend their souls to
God. It also reminds us that we all will face death someday, yet hope
that by God’s grace, we will be welcomed before the face of the
Lord. This can be a motivation to reflect on the present direction of
our lives and how we are using our time in this world. It heightens
awareness of the preciousness of our lives.
Every soul is precious to God, who creates each person to share in
his love and goodness. The psalmist profoundly captures the beauty
and mystery of each person’s origins under God’s watchful care:
“You formed my inmost being; you knit me in my mother’s womb.
I praise you, because I am wonderfully made; wonderful are your
works! My very self you know. . . . Your eyes saw me unformed; in
your book all are written down; my days were shaped, before one
came to be” (Psalm 139:13-14,16).
When we reflect, for even just a moment, how precious we are
to God, it changes our perspective on how we live out each day
and use our time. What a beautiful and comforting thought to
know that from all eternity, God was already thinking of us,
that he knew our names, that he knew everything about our
lives already. Each one of us was created because of God’s
love, and he has a special plan for each of us to know, love, and
serve him in our own unique ways. The more we discover that
plan and follow it, the happier we will be, the more we become
our true self, the person each of us was meant to be.
When we remember those who have died, especially loved ones and
others we personally have known, we are reminded how valuable
each life was in our own experience. Imagine how much more so in
God’s eyes. With the heightened awareness of the gift of time we
have in this world, we can also be mindful of those who are near
death, such as the terminally ill and the elderly. We can be the face
of God’s love to others by caring for their needs, assuring them of
the healing and comfort of God’s mercy, and witnessing to the
sacredness of their lives.
As we begin the month of November and observe All Souls’
Day, let us use this opportunity to remember those who have
died and commend their souls to God. Let us reflect on the
remaining time we have in our lives to focus on what truly
matters - with our loved ones, those we know, and those we
may encounter who are suffering, alone or broken in any way.
Let us resolve to help everyone we meet, whether man, woman,
or child, to understand how precious they are in God’s eyes.
Today’s readings celebrate the Dedication of the Papal Archbasilica of St. John Lateran, the cathedral of the Bishop of Rome
and mother church of Roman Catholicism. Though destroyed
often since its dedication in A.D. 324, each time it has been rebuilt. The readings express Christians’ esteem for this ancient
and sacred space.
The First Reading from Ezekiel portrays the inexhaustible vitality
of God’s house, the holy Temple in Jerusalem. In the wake of
its disastrous destruction in 587 B.C., the prophet envisions an
even greater future Temple pouring forth grace for the whole
world. The flow of blessing begins as a trickle but becomes a
torrent that refreshes polluted waters and makes fruit trees flourish. Ezekiel’s message gave great hope at a time of deep despair.
The Responsorial Psalm picks up the theme of the faith of the
community that trusts in God as its refuge and strength and so
drinks from the living river of grace that gladdens the holy city.
In the Second Reading, we see again the strong endurance and
joy of God’s people when Paul compares the Christian community to a massive stone edifice. All Christians together make up
this new Temple of God whose foundation is Christ alone.
Christ gives the Church strong unity by imparting his holiness to
the whole and all it parts.
John, earlier in his Gospel account, has already pictured the Word
made flesh as the new “dwelling place of God” (John 1: 14). Jesus’s
actions confirm his identity, which the disciples will understand
only after his Resurrection: his risen body is the new Temple, the
source of ever-flowing eternal life. Disciples through all time
draw on his life by recalling his Death and Resurrection.
1.
How should being a temple of God affect how we live
and treat others?
2.
How would you explain the ways that an individual
Christian’s choices, words, and actions could build up
or tear down the larger Church community?
3.
How are you able to recognize the Church as Christ’s
holy Temple despite the disheartening sins and scandals of its people?
