We have had about 100 pledges so far. I look forward to those yet to come. We are blessed by all the good work Melodie Harding did to put together our promotional material with Anne West and Jen Marsh. Thanks also to Molly Pautz and the great committee she assembled to pull off a wonderful Tailgate Party. We had a nice crowd who really enjoyed themselves. The music was great. The food was awesome and the kids had plenty to do with the bouncy houses that were donated. This next week, John, Feargal and I go back to our Parish Catalyst Group to look at what we have accomplished and where to go in the future. Since Father Rubén is gone, we will be without a priest until Thursday evening this week. I ask your patience at daily Mass with Communion services since there was no one I could get to celebrate Mass. Have a Blessed Week! Father Paul WE OFFER OUR PRAYERS FOR: All the homeless, the unemployed, the military, the addicted, the grieving, the imprisoned, and the physically and emotionally ill.

For further information contact Jim O’Hagan at 815-385-4038. Helping Hands Are Needed We are all so busy that we sometimes feel we have no time to participate in any ministries at Holy Apostles, but here we offer the opportunity of a valuable yet not time-consuming ministry: be a “helping hand.” We have many people in the parish who are at various times in need of help. A nice home-cooked meal, a cake or cookies, a ride to church or to the store would be so appreciated by them. Would you be willing to volunteer to help on an as-needed basis for the homebound or for special events at church? Please contact Jeanne Fraser, Pastoral Care office, at 815-385-5673, x 124, or jfraser@ Thechurchofholyapostles.org.

Our nation is in great need of prayers—let’s pray together. The Church of Holy Apostles, McHenry, IL Holy Apostles Mission Day—October 17 Many of us would love to reach out and be the face of God by serving others in need but are unable to take a mission trip to do so. Mission Day is an opportunity for everyone to serve people in our community just for a day. Set aside Saturday, October 17, to work on a team of parish members to give a hand to someone who needs assistance maintaining their homes. Register online on the parish website or pick up a form in the narthex. Are you or do you know someone in our community (need not be parish members) who needs help at their home with cleaning, yard work/ landscaping, painting, or light electrical, plumbing or construction repairs? Let us add your needs to our “to do” list on Mission Day. (We cannot guarantee that all requests for help will be met.) Contact Joe Filpi at 815385-5673 or jfilpi@thechurchofholyapostles.org with your requests for help. Jesus’ Greatest Expression of Love... ...is the Divine Eucharist. Take a little time each week to visit Jesus in the Divine Eucharist in the All Saints Perpetual Adoration Chapel. and thank Him and be refreshed. Pray, listen, and feel the peace that He gives us so lovingly. Take a break from your busy life to acknowledge His comforting love. Jesus will bless you, your family, and the whole world for this hour of faith you spend with Him in the Blessed Sacrament. Please pray about committing to one of these open times: Monday: 8:30 to 9 AM Tuesday: 4 to 5 PM Wednesday: 2 to 3 PM Friday: 2 to 3 PM Call Mike Thielsen at 815-385-8562 to commit your time. Adoration Ministry Meeting Scheduled A group of Holy Apostles’ staff enjoyed a fun afternoon last Tuesday of lunch outdoors followed by bowling! Everyone is highly encouraged to attend a meeting of current, past, visiting and interested Adorers at our All Saints Adoration Chapel on Tuesday, October 20, at 7 PM in Sherry Center. For more information about the meeting and/or about becoming an Adorer, please contact Mike Thielsen at 815-385-8562 or mthielsen@live.com. Offer Your Intentions with Candles Four large candles surround the Blessed Sacrament in the All Saints Perpetual Adoration Chapel, each burning for 14 days. Request your own personal intentions for their duration by contacting the Parish Office. The suggested donation is $15 per candle. From September 27 through October 10 with these candles, your prayers have been requested by Debbie Welter, Belen Cervantes and the Community of Holy Apostles.. Page 5 Twenty-sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time We Share Our Blessings This week, our Parish Tithe will be given to the Saint Vincent de Paul Society. Annual Blessing of Animals Our pets are beloved members of our families. Bring them to receive a blessing next Sunday, October 4, at 11:30 AM outside near the gazebo in the Sherry Center parking lot. Your Prayers and Gifts Help Needy Many of us, at one time or another, have needed to live paycheck-to-paycheck. Do you remember how one large bill could throw off your entire budget, leaving you unable to pay for necessities? The St. Vincent de Paul Society often helps people in just such a circumstance. A higher-than-usual electric bill left a middle-aged woman unable to pay for her needed prescription. Thanks to your generosity to the poor box and SVdPS, this medicine was purchased and prayers shared with this thankful individual. This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

Prayerfully Consider a Cursillo Weekend Cursillo (pronounced kur-see-yo) is a Spanish word meaning “little” or “short course.” The Cursillo weekend begins on Thursday night and ends on Sunday evening. Candidates attending live and work together listening to talks given by religious and lay people to gain a deeper awareness of their faith. The goal of the Cursillo weekend is to form small Christian communities or groups that meet weekly to help us with being accountable in our faith lives and to help to accomplish the mission of the Church. It is a blend of seriousness, light heartedness, spiritual exercises, talks and discussions and is presented in an atmosphere of joy and song. The whole point of the Cursillo movement is that ordinary people can steadily grow in love and service of God and man for the rest of their lives. Christian growth is not easy, but the Cursillo weekend provides a framework for it, both during the three days and afterwards.
