28th Sunday of Ordinary Time
“And my God will supply every
need of yours…”
- Philippians 4:19
God really does provide for those
who are grateful and generous.
This is very difficult for people
who don’t live a stewardship lifestyle, to believe.
People are skeptical and say it’s just coincidence. If
you are skeptical, try living a stewardship lifestyle
for just one month – be generous with your gifts of
time, talent and treasure and see how God provides
for your needs.

and serving pieces. She will serve the guests at her
table. (Refreshments can be a piece of pie or appetizer with cookies. You are the hostess, it is your
choice.)

advent wreaths for each table, coffee, hot tea,
creamer, sugar and sweetener and pitchers of ice
water.
An informational meeting will be held this Thursday,

How to ‘Rightsize’ as Opposed to ‘Downsize’
Presenter: Heartful Home Solutions, LLC.
Deadline, this Thursday, October 16th
Many people assume that when their children are
grown they need to ‘downsize’ and fear they have
to get rid of everything. Actually, it is more about
‘rightsizing’ and keeping the things that you use,
need or hold sentimental value. If you don’t know
where to start, this workshop will help guide you on
ways to organize. Location: Immaculate Heart of
Mary, 4092 Blow St. RSVP: 481-7543. Free
lunches provided after presentations.

a loved one. Please call the Rectory at 481-9385, if

COME TO THE FEAST
“On this mountain, the Lord of hosts /
will provide for all peoples / a feast of
rich food and choice wines” (Isaiah
25:6). That’s what Isaiah tells us today. God is putting together a huge
party for “all peoples,” to “wipe away /
the tears from every face”
(Isaiah 25:8).
And what does Jesus tell us? The reign of God, he says,
“may be likened to a king who gave a wedding feast for
his son” (Matthew 22:2). When the guests didn’t come, the
king had his servants go out “into the main roads and invite to the feast whomever you find” (Matthew 22:9). We
are called to deliver that invitation.
One of the themes woven into today’s liturgy is that of divine generosity. Asleep to reality, people often think they
have “earned” what they have. In our better moments,
though, we know that all our gifts—even the spiritual
gifts—come through God’s generosity. Our vocation is to
invite people, to remind them the tickets aren’t for sale.
We can only show up and say thank you.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
The confessional is a familiar setting in
literature and drama. Everyone from
Doestoevsky and Shakespeare down
the line to Seinfeld has used the sacrament to tragic or comic effect or to reveal aspects of character otherwise
hidden. All of this theater, from world
classics to slapstick, has had a numbing effect on our own expectations, and
has skewed how the culture looks at us and our struggle
with sin and forgiveness, hope and healing.
Yet the artists are on to something. The reconciliation
chapel is a place where hearts are laid bare, where honesty is the watchword, and people confess their deepest
needs. It is also a place of rebirth, or at least realignment.
It is, like the baptismal font, a place where something dies,
and where something else is born. Today, although literature has barely caught up, the place is usually not the dark
and gloomy cabinet of old; rather it is a chapel that speaks
of peace, serenity, and the comfort of a welcome home.
People in one parish were astonished recently to see their
children skipping with delight as they left the place of their
first confession. We have to wait a bit for world literature
to catch up with this reality, but at least we can experience
the joy of penance, the thrill of a new beginning, the assurance of God’s love.
