Dear Friends,
The readings for this weekend's liturgies of the 32nd Sunday in ordinary time feature widows who are generous to an extreme degree.
Of course we are called to radical giving too. Of course we all fall short. But our gracious God can take what we do give and work wonders with it, just as he did with the little boy's lunch of five loaves and two fish.
And our compassionate God knows that sometimes the little we can muster is truly all we can do, and he blesses us for it.
Thank you all for what you give in our liturgical celebrations!
At our 9:00 a.m. liturgy two baptized Christians will be received into full Communion with the Catholic Church, and we rejoice with them.
A separate Petitions is listed for the 9:00 a.m. liturgy.
7:30 Fr. Joel Henson, presider; Luke Cardella, sacristan; Ike Edie, lector A; Paul Rockenstein, lector B.
9:00-Fr. Jarlath, presider; Joe Torti, deacon; Don Moloney, sacristan; Pat Chojnicki, lector A; Katie Williams, lector B.
11:00-Msgr. Michael Bunny, presider; Arnold Reyes, deacon; Kevin Niehus, sacristan; Cynthia Nalevenko, lector A; Chris Niehus, lector B.
A reading from the first Book of Kings
In those days, Elijah the prophet went to Zarephath.
As he arrived at the entrance of the city,
She left to get it, and he called out after her,
She answered, "As the LORD, your God, lives,
Just now I was collecting a couple of sticks,
Elijah said to her, "Do not be afraid.
For the LORD, the God of Israel, says,
She left and did as Elijah had said.
She was able to eat for a year, and he and her son as well;
The word of the Lord.
A reading from the Letter to the Hebrews
Christ did not enter into a sanctuary made by hands,
Not that he might offer himself repeatedly,
if that were so, he would have had to suffer repeatedly
But now once for all he has appeared at the end of the ages
Just as it is appointed that human beings die once,
The word of the Lord.

a widow was gathering sticks there; he called out to her,
"Please bring me a small cupful of water to drink."
"Please bring along a bit of bread."
I have nothing baked; there is only a handful of flour in my jar
and a little oil in my jug.
to go in and prepare something for myself and my son;
when we have eaten it, we shall die."
Go and do as you propose.
But first make me a little cake and bring it to me.
Then you can prepare something for yourself and your son.
'The jar of flour shall not go empty,
nor the jug of oil run dry,
until the day when the LORD sends rain upon the earth.'"
the jar of flour did not go empty,
nor the jug of oil run dry,
as the LORD had foretold through Elijah.
a copy of the true one, but heaven itself,
that he might now appear before God on our behalf.
as the high priest enters each year into the sanctuary
with blood that is not his own;
from the foundation of the world.
to take away sin by his sacrifice.
and after this the judgment, so also Christ,
offered once to take away the sins of many,
will appear a second time, not to take away sin
but to bring salvation to those who eagerly await him.
Lector: We pray for the parishioners of our parish especially those who are in need at this time...., we pray to the Lord:
9:00 a.m.: and for those we remember in our All Souls Novena of Masses …,
we pray to the Lord:
and for those we remember in our All Souls Novena of Masses …,
we pray to the Lord:
