The Greatest Law is the Law of Love
Matthew 22: 34-40
Once more the first reading and the Gospel go
hand in hand. Indeed, the reading of the Book of
Exodus prepares us for the answer given by
Jesus in today’s Gospel. Jesus is faithful to his
Jewish religious tradition that asks us to love
God above all things, but at the same time
challenges the believer of all times to put that
love to God in concrete love towards our
brothers and sisters. For Jesus, only when we
love our neighbors, do we fulfill the whole law.
In this short time as pastor, I have experienced
multiple ways as many of you love and serve our
sick brothers and sisters, immigrants, abandoned
and/or single mothers.
Once again Jesus reminds us that prayer must
go hand in hand with action.We cannot say that
we love God if we are not in solidarity with
those who suffer today in our society. Jesus
teaches us that everything comes from God and
that everything that we are is from God.
Likewise, we cannot fall into the trap of
separating from what is essential of what is
apparently secondary divine law. Jesus asks us
not to neglect the baptismal call and his
implication of making us brothers and sister with
all who form his Church. Jesus manifests that we
must love God with our entire person (heart,
soul and mind) and makes it visible in the love
of our neighbor. Let us work together to recreate
this law of love in our parish.
Conversation with Christ:
Dear Jesus, give me the grace to love others with
all my effort and good will. I want to
contemplate you, Lord, so that I may learn from
you how to love them to the point of giving my
life for them.
Resolution:
I will practice charity towards others in a very
concrete way.

NEWS FROM OUR CCD PROGRAM - Attendance and participation in the weekly mass is the best way to grow in faith.
The candidates of the sacraments must attend mass regularly. We also encourage parents and relatives to attend along with the candidate. Every year, we use cards to confirm the candidates’ attendance to the mass. Attendance cards have been given to the candidates. When you attend mass, you must put the card in your alms envelope and then place it in the offering basket at the time of collection. At the end of mass, the priest will be busy tending to the parish community. If a child loses their mass attendance card, be sure to inform the office and meanwhile you can ask the priest to sign that Sunday's bulletin and you can hand in that bulletin as proof of attendance.
ALL SAINTS’ DAY - We remind our parishioners that Thursday, November 1st, is All Saints’ Day. It is also a Holiday of
