Louis Manna (Mary Cannello) Sunday, December 22nd – The People of the Parish Sunday, December 29th – The People of the Parish Lord, what commandment do we live by? To look after Number One? To seek comfort in retail therapy or selfish pleasures when we are down. What is it, to love you with all our heart? We think that only you can do that for us. You purify our hearts by chipping away at our selfishness and our illusions, by showing us that you have made us for yourself, and our hearts are restless till they rest in you. The 31st Sunday in Ordinary Time (Keeping the Commandments) Moses instructs the people to hold fast to the commandments of the Lord. In this way they shall love God, and they will prosper in the Lord’s favor. RESPONSORIAL PSALM 18 (God Our Helper) I Love you, Lord, my strength.
2nd READING HEBREWS 7:23-28 (Jesus The High priest) Jesus has a priesthood that will not pass away. He is a high priest holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners and higher than the heavens. He offered one sacrifice for sin. THE GOSPEL OF MARK 12:28-34 (Love For God and Neighbor) Jesus describes the first commandment- the total love for God- and the second- love for neighbor.

While in the Church…… Be silent. Be thoughtful. Be reverent. This is God's house. Before Mass, speak to God. During Mass, let God speak to you. After Mass, speak to one another.

AMERICAN MARTYRS The church will be holding a silent basket auction at the Knights of Columbus Wine Tasting to raise money.

All money raised will go to American Martyrs. AMERICAN MARTYRS SOCIAL NIGHT American Martyrs Thanksgiving social night will be Saturday, November 16th. Turkey and stuffing will be provided by the church. All are welcome. If you would like to bring a side dish or dessert, we have a sign-up sheet this year to prevent too many duplicate sides.
