Stewardship
A Way of Life
This Week’s Readings
St. Paul reminds us in the second reading that “I live by
faith in the Son of God who has loved me and given
Himself up for me.” What do we give to - and do - for
others? What do we give to - and do - for Jesus?
Living Stewardship
We are grateful this week for all stewards of God’s
mercy in our parish who care for the sick by visiting
family members and friends who are ill, praying for the
sick individually by name or making a meal for people
who are facing difficult situations in caring for a sick
loved one.

forgotten. We include those taken among our Village’s

2017 Mass
Intentions
The Mass intention book
for 2017 is now open and
having a Mass offered for a
loved
one
on
their
birthday, date of death or some other significant date in
their life can be arranged at the Rectory Office. Having
one’s loved ones remembered at Mass is a tradition that
dates back to the early Church. Inscriptions on the walls
of the ancient catacombs ask people to pray for those
who have fallen asleep in death. St. Ambrose (d. 397)
preached that just as we have loved people during life,
we love them in death as we pray for them.
St. Augustine (d. 430) recorded the dying wishes of his
mother, St. Monica in his Confessions: “One thing only
I ask you, that you remember me at the altar of the Lord
wherever you may be.”
More recently, Pope Leo XIII explained that the
Mass is the means by which we are especially connected
to those who have gone before us. For it is at Mass,
Pope Leo wrote, that we “all form one city, whose head
is Christ, and whose vital principle is love.” And it is
through the Mass, St. John Paul II wrote, that “the
Church prays that God, the Father of mercies, will grant
His children the fullness of the Holy Spirit so that they
may become one body and one spirit in Christ” and live
in the presence of God for all eternity.
Please feel free to speak to one of the priests
should you have any questions.
