Mission Statement

Through our gifts of time, talents, and treasures, we serve our parish as we journey together to the Kingdom of God.

DIGNITY REVOLUTION~ is a program that has an

anti-bullying theme. It talks about the worth and value of

every person. Open to the public on, Wednesday,

October 9th, 6:30 p.m., at the

St. Marys Area High School

auditorium-all are welcome at

this event with Bob Lenz,

international speaker & author.

Special guest AJ The Animated

Illusionist. This program is

coming to our area with the help of Laura Kleppinger,

Mandy Assalone, local churches and businesses.

Laura & Mandy have formed Faith Forward-a non-profit

community group dedicated to promoting faith and unity in

Elk County. Donations for this program can be mailed to:

c/o Mandy Assalone, 152 Hemlock Rd., St. Marys, PA.

15857. Questions, call Mandy at 814-594-6148

WORD OF LIFE!!

Wonder how to protect your child from being vulnerable

to manipulation or abuse by bullies? There's no magic

vaccine but a child who knows they are unconditionally

loved and respected by their parent (s) is inclined to

accept their own worth and not depend on validation

from others.

BAKING & OR KITCHEN HELP~ The Social Committee

will soon be under way getting ready for the

Bah Humbug which will be held on December 14, 2019.

It takes lots of helping hands to make this event a

HUGH SUCCESS. If you have any time and would like

to help, please give Helene Burdick (594-0439) or

Linda Brunner (335-4083) a call.

STUDENTS~ keep in mind that if you need Service

Hours, this is a GREAT way to receive hours and give

back to YOUR Church.

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE

In today’s gospel the rich man died and was condemned

to “a place of torment” because he ignored the poor.

He asked Lazarus to go and warn his five brothers to

change their ways. Evidently ignoring the poor was a

family pattern. What is your family’s attitude toward

those who are poor?

Sins of omission come from a habitual attitude

of self-centeredness.

The story of a missionary named Marcela, still living

today, is a perfect example of the exact opposite

attitude.

At a young age, Marcela consecrated her life to

Christ and became a full-time lay missionary. Soon

thereafter, she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, a

degenerative and incurable disease that saps your life

away painfully and relentlessly. Marcela had always

been afraid of suffering. Now she had to suffer. She

did so physically, giving herself shots every day, and

literally feeling her strength, energy, and coordination

drain away.

She also suffered spiritually - her dreams of a long life

of active missionary service were gone. Marcela asked

God to show her his will in this trial.

He reminded her that her sufferings, united out

of love to Christ's sufferings, can have a purpose. They

can be offered to God as sacrifices to win graces for

other members of Christ's mystical body, others who

are in need. She realized that her suffering could

become her missionary activity. So Marcela began to

offer every shot, every new manifestation of her

disease, for someone who needed help: a young man

struggling with his call to the priesthood, an elderly

woman dying of cancer, a friend who had turned away

from God. Soon others heard of what she was doing,

and a flood of requests began pouring in.

"Please offer your shot today for my uncle who is near

death and has not yet gone to confession."

"Pray for my brother who is starting to do drugs, and

please offer some of your sufferings for him...."

It was the beginning of a new ministry. Within a year

Marcela had gathered a small army of two hundred

fellow-sufferers who were doing what she was doing,

and who were now suffering with purpose. It's that

habitual attitude of self-giving, that missionary attitude

that is always on the lookout for opportunities to build

Christ's Kingdom, which will defend us from the dangers

of the sin-of-omission mentality that was so deadly for

the rich man in the parable.

COMMUNITY ENCOURAGED TO PARTICIPATE IN

NORTH AMERICAN LIFE CHAIN EVENT~ The North

American Life Chain is held annually on the first Sunday

of October. The local Life Chain in downtown St. Marys

scheduled for October 6 from 2 to 3 pm. Students and

families are especially encouraged to attend.

Participants are asked to meet between 1:30 and 2 pm

at the K of C building on the corner of N St. Marys and

Washington Streets to pick up a pro life sign. During the

one-hour chain, participants are asked to pray on

suggested topics listed on the back of the signs. Given

the state of our nation regarding abortion, the issue calls

for action now more than ever and Life Chain is an

excellent opportunity to stand up

and be counted on the value of all

lives, especially the unborn and

mothers in crises pregnancies.

For info please contact

Mary Bea Maloney, 834-3834.

Ever Wonder Why .... ? (Part I)

There is a multitude of anomalies, inconsistencies and downright deceit surrounding the abortion issue.

Why is it. .. one never sees the word "abortion" on the buildings or signs at abortion clinics? If abortion

is such a good "choice", why hide what it is they really do?

Why is it. .. when three people die from E.coli poisoning, spinach is immediately pulled off the shelf in

every corner of the nation, but when eight women die from the RU-486 (the at-home abortion pill) no

one even raises an eyebrow?

Why is it. .. that on one floor of many US hospitals they will abort babies left and right, but on another

floor, we spend tens of thousands of dollars to save a child born at the same gestational age as the

children being aborted floors below?

Why is it. .. when a woman goes into an abortion clinic, the champions of "choice" only offer the choice

of abortion?

Why is it... that Planned Parenthood has a budget well over $800 million a year, while pro-life

organizations are forced to eke out projects and programs on a shoestring budget?

Why is it... that we are flooded with images of violence in our media, yet it is deemed entirely

inappropriate to provide any photos or images related to an abortion and

even provide the public with a factual description of what takes place?

Why is it... that abortion protagonists use incomprehensible language such

as "disarticulating a fetus" or .....

Pro-Life Articles

Ever Wonder Why .... ? (Part II)

Why is it... that when a woman is happy about her pregnancy, it's a "baby"?

She is asked questions like, "when is your baby due?" When she goes to an

abortion clinic, she is often told that "it" (the growing child) is only a blob of

tissue or a product of conception?

Why is it... so many people are uninformed about abortion and it receives

so little coverage in the

media, despite the fact that it is the number-one cause of death in the US

every year.

Why is it... that you can kill an unborn baby anytime you want to, for any reason under the sun, but if

you destroy a turtle egg on a Florida beach, you go to jail?

Why is it..." if abortion is supposed to be available to give a woman a "choice", that illegal coercion is

the number-one cause of abortion in America today? Also, the number-one cause of death among

pregnant women is murder.

Why is it. .. that many do not see the handwriting on the wall. .. that abortion is a catalyst to infanticide,

euthanasia, assisted suicide, human cloning etc. only to name a few contemporary assaults on the

sanctity of human life?

Why is it... that the major Fortune 500 companies will proudly support Planned Parenthood, the largest

provider of abortion, but pro-life companies are scared to death to openly support the unborn, for fear of

retribution in the marketplace?

Why is it... that in every election cycle, God-fearing citizens cast their vote for politicians who support
