CARING AND SHARING
What a powerful Gospel for us all ~Mark 10:51
“Master I want to see.” That is a prayer for each of us.
I find it fitting especially after loss of loved ones. Help
us see where you are leading us now. We begin our new
journey a bit in the dark and alone but you are with us.
At times we beg to be healed of the pain that loss
causes us. We too feel blind and need a cure. In the
meantime we want to reach out and be there for others
in their struggle — special thanks to those who help us!
Bless you, Yvonne We are very thankful for our 6th and 7th grade classes for their joining together for our retreats at Cannelburg. What special days to pray together. How blessed we are to be able to use the Holy Ground at All Saints Parish. — Bless you all.
I recall taking many of your parents on retreats a “few” years ago.
Called to be Faithful and Prudent Stewards “The Father Deydier House of Discernment opened upon its third year in the fall of 2020. Four new House residents
began their discernment under the leadership of House Chaplain, Father Tyler Tenbarge. The House exists to
serve young men as they discern whether God is calling them to seminary in the year after they live at the House. The House also hosts a weekly Monday Night Holy Hour & Mass for Vocations at Sacred Heart Church, at which
more than 150 people usually attend, about half of whom are young adult Catholics. The third component of the
House is the monthly Savio Night gatherings for teenage guys. There, these young men are formed in the faith and
have begun their own discernment of their vocations.” http://www.evdio.org/impact-report.html. The Office of Vocations is supported by our contributions to the
Catholic Parishes Campaign.
We have pecan halves, pecan pieces, english walnuts, cashews, mixed nuts and sliced almonds, all for
$10.00 for 1 pound bag.
Black walnuts are $12.00 for 1 pound bag.

GOSPEL MEDITATION
Centuries of God’s devoted people have found this prayer on their lips: “Hear, O Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord alone!” The fundamental prayer has been laid as the cornerstone of many spiritual lives. Where did you learn how to pray or did you? Maybe there is a wisdom figure in your life who inspired and guided you by the genuine, holy simplicity of their lives. His or her example may have led you to God and taught you how to pray. Or perhaps you discovered this art on your own after stumbling over yourself enough times and finally realizing it was time to reach out to Someone greater than yourself. There is a timeless truth that we not only tend to forget, but may have never learned. There is only one God, the Lord alone! As a result, we often worship other gods rather than the One true God. Everything in our life gets distorted and we find ourselves lost and off center.
If we haven’t learned it yet, there is a life lesson at the top of all of the possible lessons to be learned. There is One True and Eternal God who alone has a solitary claim on us and must be loved with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. Until we learn this primary lesson, we run the risk of getting distracted and sidetracked. We will also never really figure out what is at the heart of the relationships we share with the other human beings on this planet with whom we share life. That one primary lesson will teach us the second most valuable lesson: that we must love our neighbor as ourselves. You cannot have one without the other. The presence of God in the core soul of each one of us requires that all of our relationships work together. This truth is at the heart of the Gospel.
If every human being, each in their own way, could stumble upon and genuinely embrace this truth, look how different life would be! Our priorities will immediately shift from “I and me” to “us and we” and we will develop a more inclusive vision for our brothers and sisters. Concerned not only about my own wellbeing and happiness but also that of our brothers and sisters, humanity stands a chance at succeeding in the struggle with injustice, abuse, inequity, violence, war, entitlement, and privilege. It seems that getting to this point has been at the heart of the Gospel and the kingdom of God from the moment Jesus first started to preach. It’s a wonder why, then, why so many centuries later, we have still failed to achieve his vision. Maybe we just haven’t learned our primary lessons yet.
MEDITACIÓN DEL EVANGELIO
La palabra amor está bien trillada en la sociedad, muchas veces llamamos amor a lo trivial y fácilmente se confunde con el amor verdadero. Como aquel amor, por ejemplo, de nuestros padres, quienes al contraer matrimonio se juraron amor eterno el uno para el otro y dieron ejemplo de su compromiso en las buenas y en las no tan buenas. Ellos no tiraron la toalla a las primeras señales de cambio como algunas parejas modernas, que al surgir los primeros problemas en la familia se separan.
El papa Francisco, nos explica que el enfoque central del Evangelio de este domingo está en el mandamiento del amor: amor a Dios y amor al prójimo. Un amor muy diferente al que estamos acostumbrados a ver en la sociedad. Dios nos pide sinceridad de corazón y espera que el amor y nuestras energías sean dados en colaboración al servicio de los más necesitados. Jesús lo explica muy bien al maestro de la ley: “Amarás al Señor tu Dios con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma, con toda tu inteligencia y con todas tus fuerzas. Y después viene este otro: Amarás a tu prójimo como a ti mismo. No hay ningún mandamiento más importante que estos” (Marcos 12:30-31). Con esto se indica que la vida debe ser un ejercicio de amor siempre alegre y duradero. ¿Cómo es tu amor al prójimo y a ti mismo? ¿Tienes alguna práctica de misericordia con los que te rodean? Tengámonos claro, o no, toda nuestra vida está implicada en el amor de Dios y a los demás. ¡Actuemos ya!

Feast of Christ The King. It was promulgated by
Pope Pius XI on December 11, 1925. The first time it
was celebrated was October 31, 1926.
The empire of our Redeemer embraces all men
(people). In Him is the salvation of the individual as
well as all of society.
The Feast of Christ The King is designed to embolden
Catholics to march into whatever public square in
which they find themselves a part and declare Christ's
gentle, but firm sovereignty over society.
It is a fitting transition from the triumph of Christ in
his members... All Saints (Nov. 1) and All Souls
(Nov. 2).
Christ the King, saves us, Holy Mary, Queen of all
Saints, pray for us. Amen, Fiat.
