CONTACT NUMBERS ADMINISTRATION BOOKSTORE Parish Hall, lower level . . . . 626.403.6133 TOGETHER IN MISSION CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS & REMEMBERING CHURCH How is Holy Family Responding to Together in Mission? It has been a few months since Cambria made her appeal for T ogether in Mission. So far , our parishioners have paid $145,405 the $153,548 pledged. W e have made great strides toward our goal of $146,862, but still need to raise $1,457 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 gener osity of those who contribute, in or der to continue pr oviding 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 alr eady done so, please accept our thanks and appr eciation for helping to keep our parishes and schools alive and functioning in God’ s name.

Contact: Pastoral Center , 626.799.8908 LITURGY MATTERS Session Three part 5 Session 3 part 7 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 tr eated 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 befor e 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 r emains to be done, however, on multiple documents, including the important and contr oversial 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 palpable in these final days. November 20, 1964 a large majority appr oves the declaration on the church’s relation with non-Christians (Nostra Aetate). The document on Eastern churches is also approved promulgation the following day. Likewise the document on ecumenism is appr oved, including 19 out of the 40 lastminute 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 chur ch, a move that disappoints the Pr otestant 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. That there will be a fourth session is also announced. BIBLE STUDY We'll be continuing our study of the Book of Isaiah this week. The pr ophet told the people of Jerusalem to give up their idols and trust in "The Holy One of Israel" 740 years befor e the birth of Christ. And he tells the people of souther n 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. WHITE MASS Today October 27, 3:00 p.m. Celebrant: Archbishop José Gomez In recognition of the dedicated work of Catholic Health Car e Professionals, the Archdiocese of Los Angeles and Mission Doctors invites all Catholic physicians and medical personnel to the celebration of a White Mass at Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels.

OUTREACH MISSION HAITI Mission Co-Op Appeal 2013 Each year the Society for the Propagation of the Faith invites Catholic mission groups to speak one Sunday a year at each parish in the United States. Fr. Tom and Hands Together, our Haiti Mission, are assigned 50 plus parishes in the U. S. Fr. Tom and Doug Campbell do the bulk of these presentations all over our wonderful country. However as you can imagine they cannot possibly speak personally at all of the assigned parishes. Fr. Tom and Doug annually ask Karl Holtsnider and Mary Nally for assistance fr om Holy Family’s Mission Haiti. This year Karl asked Margo and me if we would be available to speak at St. Rita’s Parish in Fairfax, California. (Fairfax is in Marin County just north of San Francisco adjacent to San Rafael) For such a good cause to help raise money for Hands Together and the poorest of the poor in Haiti we of course said yes. After calling to coordinate available dates we settled on July 13 and 14 to make the appeal. Getting ready to make a presentation on Haiti can be daunting. What do you tell those that may know nothing about this poor country? How do you describe the terrible conditions in which these people live day by day? Do you r elate the horrific conditions in Haiti or do you narrate the positive that Fr . Tom and Hands Together are accomplishing? So much material that can be cover ed but all must be summarized in less than 15 minutes. Margo and I chose to incorporate both the harsh conditions of the people of Haiti along with the very optimistic programs that Fr. Tom has put in place to try and make the lives of those he touches just a little bit better . We tried to appeal to the heart of all of these good parishioners at St. Rita’s. St. Rita’s is a medium sized parish with one Mass on Satur day afternoon and three Masses on Sunday. We spoke at all four of these Masses and wer e greeted very warmly by the congregation after each of the Masses. Fr. Kenneth Weare is the pastor and along with Deacon Peter Kehrlein is r esponsible for the liturgy at St. Rita’s. Fr. Ken welcomed us as beggars fr om Haiti, a country he too has visited twice. His introduction to our homily/presentation was generous and introspective. We are pleased to have been able to participate in such a worthy cause. One other thing we learned from our visit to St. Rita’s was that they too have an outreach like our Mission Haiti. Their Mission is in Guatemala will be described next week. Dan and Margo Bruich The Mission Haiti Committee THE ROAD TO THE DIACONATE Please keep in prayer this week Jay Krueger as he is formally accepted as a candidate for ordination to the Diaconate for the Ar chdiocese. Many of you may follow the blog in the Bulletin or on the website r egarding this journey towards ordination. Jay and Candy have been part of a formation pr ocess for the last 18 months. Since Holy Orders is a sacrament of the Chur ch, the spouse of any interested person must be very involved in the whole process. They have both had to undergo psychological tests, formation classes, retreats, and have spiritual directors. This first period is formally called the period of Aspirancy, where the individual is aspiring to be a Deacon. The spouse must give permission for her husband to be part of this formation process. Candy has given this testimony and Jay has written the Ar chbishop requesting his admission to be a candidate for the Diaconate. This Satur day, November 2, Jay will be formally accepted as a candidate for or dination as a Deacon in our Chur ch. Please keep Jay and Candy in prayer as they continue to pr epare for ordination in June of 2017.

Let us pause for a moment, and listen attentively to this week’ spassage. THE WORD OF GOD Luke 18:9-14 Jesus addressed this parable to those who wer e convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else. "Two people went up to the temple ar ea to pray; one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector. The Pharisee took up his position and spoke this prayer to himself, 'O God, I thank you that I am not like the r est of humanity -greedy, dishonest, adulterous -- or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week, and I pay tithes on my whole income.’ But the tax collector stood of f at a distance and would not even raise his eyes to heaven but beat his br east and prayed, 'O God, be merciful to me a sinner.' I tell you, the latter went home justified, not the former; for whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted." FAITH SHARING Children: Children: If you were getting a grade in prayer, would it be an A or a B or…? Why? Teens: It has been said that those who ar e humble approach God with reverence and respect. How are you humble? Adults: How would your life be different if Jesus stood right by your side all day , every minute of the day? In grace: As we pray as a community ar e we drawing attention to ourselves, or to the greater glory of God? How do you know the dif ference? IN THE SPOTLIGHT GRACE, GRATITUDE AND GENEROSITY Thank you to our fair chairs for making this year’s fair one of the best ever! Your energy and enthusiasm shined through this event and your hard work paid off as everyone had such a wonderful time. Thank you again!
