Next Weekend—World Mission Sunday!
On World Mission Sunday, Catholics of the world unite at
Mass to recommit ourselves to our vocation, through Baptism, to
be missionaries. We are called in a special way to be missionaries through prayer and participation in the Eucharist, and by giving generously to the collection for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.
Our brothers and sisters in the Missions themselves offer their
prayers and sacrifices so that others may come to know Jesus!
In a world where so much divides us, World Mission Sunday
rejoices in our unity as missionaries! It provides an opportunity
to support the life giving presence of the Church among the poor
and suffering in more that 1,150 mission dioceses.
Thank you for your generosity!
*****************************************************
During the month of October the Rosary will be recited before the 5:00 p.m. & 10:00 a.m. weekend
masses. There is a sign up sheet in the back of church
for volunteers to lead the rosary.

PRO LIFE NEWS
The Bishop's Pastoral Plan for Pro Life Activities regrets to inform you that in Nebraska, 204
babies were killed by induced abortion during
April; 226 during May; 168 in June and 191 In
July. Unfortunately, the year to date total is 8% higher than the
same time frame in 2013. Since 1973, there have been 181,499
babies killed by induced abortions in Nebraska. Nationally, more
than 55 million abortions have been done since 1973. Please
pray for an end to this destruction of human life and for the
spiritual and psychological healing of all persons wounded by
abortion.
Is there an abortion in your past? Do you feel a sense of
loss? Despair? Alienation and guilt? Do you feel distant from
your Church? PROJECT RACHEL can help heal the wounds
of abortion. For private, sensitive and confidential counseling
and/or reconciliation, call 1-800-456-HOPE (4673). More information is available online at www.hopeafterabortion.com.
