28th Sunday in Ordinary Time
If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities, Lord, who
could stand? But with you is found forgiveness,
O God of Israel.
The Faith Formation Program is dedicated to the
children’s Faith education and at the same time, our priority is to keep every child safe. Once they are on the
church grounds, your children become our responsibility
and we take their safety seriously! Therefore, over a
period of two class days, we reviewed and then practiced
emergency procedures. The children and catechists, while
at St. Anthony’s know exactly what to do in case of several
kinds of emergencies. We will run a drill again when the
children come back from Christmas break. This will help
keep safety preparedness fresh in everyone’s minds.
The 6th Grade Family Mass will be Sunday, October 26th
at 9:00 am. The students will be doing the readings, the
Prayers of the Faithful and bringing up the Gifts as well as
the donations to the charity they have chosen.
Anointing Mass—Ever wonder who should
receive the Anointing Sacrament? The
Anointing of the Sick is not a sacrament for
only those who are at the point of death. As soon as
anyone of the faithful begins to be in danger of death
from serious or chronic physical or emotional illness,
or who struggles with the infirmities of age, the time
for the person to receive the sacrament has arrived.
Please join us for the Healing Mass next Sunday,
October 19, 2014 at the 11:00 am Mass.
Altar Servers Needed—Our parish is in need of
additional Altar Servers for all Masses. This is a
great opportunity for boys and girls 3rd grade and older to
participate in a special way at Mass. Servers must have
received their First Holy Communion. Confirmation candidates will receive parish service hour credit for serving at
Masses. Training for new Altar Servers will be conducted
in late October and November and new Servers will start
serving in November. Anyone who is interested can
contact Brian Barr at 382-9033 or [email protected] or
leave your name and contact information at the rectory.
Since 2003, the Knights of Columbus have
sponsored over 45,000 wheelchairs to children,

28th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Fellow Members of Jesus,
When the Jewish leaders rejected Jesus, he
tells a parable about the banquet being thrown open
to everybody, even Gentiles. But something more
is required—the wedding garment. Saints Augustine
and Gregory say it is more than Baptism that gets
us into the Church or the sacramental life but it is
the love of God and neighbor with which we live the
Christian life. The Jewish leaders are not the only
ones who are required to be open to God’s call, but
all of us have the same requirement—to actively love
God and neighbor, to put our union with Jesus into
practice.
~ Fr. White
