“Amen
I say to you,
whoever does
not accept
the kingdom
of God
like a child
will not enter it.”
— Mark 10:15
C OMING TO J ESUS L IKE C HILDREN
Oh Son of God and my lord! How is it that you give so much all together in the first words? Since you humble yourself
to such an extreme in joining with us in prayer and making yourself the Brother of creatures so lowly and wretched, how is it that
you give us in the name of your Father everything that can be given? For you desire that he consider us his children, because your
Word cannot fail. You oblige him to be true to your Word, which is no small burden since in being Father he must bear with us
no matter how serious the offenses.
If we return to him like the prodigal son, he has to pardon us. He has to console us in our trials. He has to sustain us in
the way a father like this must. For, in effect, he must be better than all the fathers in the world because in him everything must be
faultless. And after all this he must make us sharers and heirs with you.

RESPECT LIFE SUNDAY: EVERY LIFE IS WORTH LIVING!
Each year October is designated as Respect Life Month by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and this year's theme is
"Every life is worth living". Sunday, October 4th is Respect Life Sunday.
Prayer is the foundation of all that we do in defense of human life. Parents, join your children in saying a short prayer or
blessing. Meditate or ask for God's intercession for mothers, fathers, couples or grandparents. Devote some time to pray a Holy
Hour (Wednesdays while your children attend FF), or commit to a novena or Stations of the Cross. We should also offer special
prayers for those who have lost a child due to miscarriage, abortion or other causes.
“Even the weakest and most vulnerable, the sick, the old, the unborn and the poor, are masterpieces of God’s creation, made in his own image, destined to
live forever, and deserving of the utmost reverence and respect.” — Pope Francis’ Day for Life Greeting
Faith Formation Classes:
Meet Wednesday evenings 6pm to 7:15pm. Classes go down to the Church at 7:00pm for prayer, adoration and benediction.
Parents are invited to join the youth for prayer, adoration and benediction. Parents are responsible for picking up their children
directly from the catechist following benediction in front of the church.
Homework folders: will go home with students each week. Parents are asked to review their folders with their children as well as
read and discuss what they are learning in class.
Note: Mixed Sacramental prep classes to be announced—no classes at this time for those children who are past second grade and
are seeking preparation for the sacraments of Penance and First Holy Communion.
WOMEN’S GROUP
“Untold Blessing: Three Paths to Holiness”
Tuesday Evening, October 6th — 6:30 to 8:00pm
Ladies, we thank all of you who are participating in this series. If
you have not attended a session as yet but would like to, we
welcome you! This series is a six-part series running through the
end of October. Rev. Robert E. Barron paints a beautiful and
mysterious image of what it takes to be a follower of, “the One
who is, Jesus Christ.” The greatest calling for all of us is to be a
saint. Our ultimate path to holiness is full of untold blessing. We
hope you will join us this Tuesday, October 6th in the parish
center at 6:30pm. Bring a friend!
"Few souls understand what God would accomplish in them if they were to
abandon themselves unreservedly to Him and if they were to allow His grace
to mold them accordingly."
— St. Ignatius of Loyola
The desire for God is written in the human heart, because man is
created by God and for God.”
--CCC, no.27
