In my 41 years as a priest I’ve been in quite a few
parishes. While all parishes have a lot in common, there is a
great deal of diversity. Part of that is due to each parish’s
unique history, its location, its composition, and many other
things. I can honestly say that my experience in each parish
has enriched me spiritually. Parishioners individually and as
a group have helped me become more aware of the presence
of Jesus.
I was in two parishes with strong African American
participation: St. Anthony in Madisonville and what was
then St. Agnes in Bond Hill. Celebrating Mass, especially at
St. Agnes, opened me up to the role music can play in my
prayer. As I mentioned in a couple of Masses last week, “It
is okay to move with the music.” One of the joys of parish
ministry is having the opportunity to listen to people’s stories of faith. That may be an elderly parishioner whose is
dealing with loss of independence, a young couple sharing
dreams as they prepare for marriage, or the trials of parenting. It may be someone whose cultural heritage is German,
African, or Latin American.
November is Black Catholic History Month.
Unfortunately, most of us are unaware of the many saints of
African heritage. We have never thought much of the contributions to the Church in the U.S. by Catholics of African
heritage. During November and December the bulletin will
occasionally include a “blurb” about topics of importance
such as Father Augustus Tolton, an
African
American
whose cause for
beatification is in
Rome. Let us continue to celebrate our
diversity!

Message of Lourdes as given
by Our Lady to St. Bernadette. You will have the opportunity to touch the Grotto
Rock and to experience the liquid grace of Lourdes
Water. As part of this spiritual opportunity to draw

ROSARY DEVOTION IN PREPARATION FOR
FEASTS OF
OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE & CHRISTMAS
Mexican families have the tradition of praying the rosary
with family and friends each evening prior to the great feasts
of Our Lady of Guadalupe (Dec. 12) and Christmas. It is
done in their homes before an image of Our Lady of Guadalupe. The image travels each day from family to family. We want to
invite English-speaking parishioners to participate in this by being with a
family in their home any evening from November 26 through Dec.
20. You can pray along in either English or Spanish. If you would like to
pray in Spanish, we can give you a CD with the rosary prayers in Spanish
to practice.
Let Tami Urcia or Fr. Mike know of your interest and which day(s) you
would like to participate. We will call the host family and tell them to
expect you. We will give you the family’s names, address, and phone
number. We hope many families will take advantage of this great opportunity to participate in a multicultural experience of devotion
and tradition!

XXX DOMINGO DEL TIEMPO
LEER: Éxodo 22:20-26, Salmo 17,
1 Tesalonicenses 1:5-10, Mateo 22:34-40
La Fiesta de San Judas Tadeo
El martes, 28 de octubre habrá
una misa especial a las 7:00pm
para la fiesta de San Judas
Tadeo, uno de los 12 apóstoles
quien predicó el Evangelio en
Judea, Samaria, Siria, Mesopotamia y Libia y por fin murió
como mártir. Es conocido como
el patrón de casos perdidos o
casos imposibles.
“A veces el gran mandamiento de amar a Dios
sobre todas las cosas causa cierto temor, porque pensamos que, para cumplirlo, hay que estar constantemente realizando actos heroicos de virtud y perfección, y sabemos que rara vez somos capaces de hacer
cosas grandes y virtuosas. Pero en realidad, esta forma de pensar impide experimentar el verdadero sentido del gran mandamiento de Cristo.
“La vida con Dios es principalmente un constante
diálogo de amor. Por ejemplo, la Escritura dice que
Moisés era amigo de Dios. (Éxodo 33:11) Durante
toda su vida, Moisés llegó a tener una gran intimidad con el Señor. Nosotros también debemos acercarnos a Dios como a un amigo, con la seguridad
que nos da la fe en la muerte redentora de Cristo y
su resurrección. Dios es nuestro amigo; él nos fortalece y nos guía cada vez que lo “visitamos” en la
oración, en la meditación bíblica y en la Santa Misa.
“Padre celestial, enséñame a recibir tu amor incondicional e infinito. Ayúdame a entrar en tu presencia y dialogar contigo. Quiero que seas parte de
cada momento de mi vida.”
(Tomado de La Palabra Entre Nosotros)
