SUBSTITUTES NEEDED
While we have many dedicated
Guardians of the Eucharist there is
always a need for substitutes in the event that
someone becomes ill or goes on vacation. The
greatest need is for coverage for the hours from
midnight to 6AM, although there is still a need during
the day and evening also. As a substitute you would
be called occasionally, as the need arises.
If you are interested in becoming a substitute
please call the rectory at 343-6013 to leave your
name and phone number and specify when you are
available. We would be most grateful for your help.
You may wish to be a Guardian of any hour of
your choosing.
Hours of need:
Sunday 2-3AM
Sunday 5-6PM
Monday 1-2PM

40 DAYS FOR LIFE
We are nearing the end of this campaign of 40
Days and it has been full of blessings! Worldwide
there have been 297 babies saved!
Thank you to all who have stood as prayer
volunteers to be a witness to all that God is the
author of life and no one has the right to take the life
of another. We have had good participation from our
parish. Thank you too, to all who have been praying
and fasting for the end of abortion.
COMMEMORATION OF ALL THE FAITHFUL
DEPARTED (ALL SOULS’ DAY)
First Reading: Wisdom 3: 1-9
Those who left this earth before us are at peace, in
the hands of God. The Lord is their King forever,
and His grace, mercy and love are with His elect.
Second Reading: Romans 5: 5-11
Rejoice in our Lord Jesus Christ! For through His
death and resurrection we have been reconciled and
shall have eternal life. By the power of the Holy
Spirit God has given us hope, and hope does not
disappoint.
Gospel: John 6: 37-40
Jesus calls Himself the Bread of God, the giver of
life to the world. True bread from heaven, not the
manna Moses fed his people in the desert. Through
the Eucharist we remember, celebrate and believe.
All who believe in Him will have eternal life, and the
Father will raise them up on the last day.
