Dear Parishioners:
This weekend we celebrate the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick at all Masses at St. Joseph The Worker. Everyone is welcome to participate. In this Year of Mercy, remember that God is abundant in mercy to all who re-ceive Him.
In the Parable of the Rich Man, Jesus offers us: Woe to the complacent; take responsibility of spiritual life; and a warning from the dead. Jesus calls us to full commitment! Are we actually helping the eternal life of ourselves and others? Are we listening to those who have gone before us in faith? The time to respond to God is now!
Blessings upon you, Fr. Gabriel

On Hospitality Sunday, October 16th , we invite all families of children bap-tized this 2016 year to join us in the school meeting room after the 11:00 Mass. There will be a special treat for everyone!

GRACE 2.0 Always sitting before our leaders is the ominous overhanging shingle: “Woe to the complacent!” What does complacent faith life look like? Perhaps like a savings account – it’s there for an emergency, or perhaps like our favorite chair – it comforts us. Transforming faith needs to be much more. For the committed believer, it drives our decisions; it leads our day; it informs our thinking; it challenges our littleness; it pushes us toward
the unexpected, it opens up new vistas, and it immerses us in unexpected grace. Who is the Lazarus at our door? What situation cries out for my help? How can I take a step toward greater faith, trusting in God’s abundance to carry me be-yond my uncertainty and fear? If each of us truly invests in something beyond ourselves (and self-interest), how might our lives change? How might our parish change? Two challenges right now: How have I invested in the Parish Festival – am I helping? Can I come, and contribute my gifts to Grace 2.0 during October? Lets go for it!

There is a popu-lar way to do this: coloring. Discov-er the psychological and spiritual benefits of coloring, and have a chance to try it for yourself. Pieces to be colored will be provided. Bring your own colored pencils or markers and be prepared to experience.
