A Serious Moment and the Gift of Life
It seems that this week the weather has taken a definite turn towards fall and winter and away from
the halcyon days of summer. I who like being cold, have even risked opening my windows a few
nights to let the cold, fresh autumn air into the house. The
clouds in the sky are no longer the billowy summer white,
but are flattening out into the slate of winter. The days are
shorter and last week we saw the last after 7:00 p.m.
sunset until March 8, 2015. We are entering into a serious
time of year with a difficult and perhaps disappointing
harvest before us. The Church, too, has turned away from
the call to discipleship of Ordinary Time and to the
consideration of the meaning of death, judgment and
God’s plans for us to live with him forever.
Today’s first reading and Gospel are parables about how
the choices we make now will shape our eternity. In the beautiful lament of the vineyard owner for
the ruin of his vineyard we hear God’s longing for us to accept his love, to be cared for in his mercy
and to embraced by his life-giving power. The melancholy of this passage is a moving expression of
God’s mourning over his rejected offer of salvation, care, mercy and life. In a simple and almost too
obvious parable, Jesus leads us into a confrontation with our own hard-hearted rejection of God’s
merciful desire to work by our side in transforming our lives and the life of the world.
Today we observe Respect Life Sunday, and at the heart of our observance is the simple and
undeniable truth that God’s desire for us is life. God shares his life with us and calls us to live day
after day in grateful recognition of that gift. We are called to do all we can to create a society, culture
and world that affirm the life God has given us. Our words, actions and choices can embrace or shun
this gift, and we are called to embrace it with all its challenges and difficulties. We rejoice in its
varied forms, its sorrows and joys, its challenges and triumphs, its hidden, messy and yet glorious
reality. Life is an eternal gift, granted by a loving God to us. It is a confusing, maddening,
cacophonous, tumultuous, mysterious and joyful mystery to be experienced with wonder and awe.
At this rather serious moment of the year we may ask, how we can grasp and live this gift. St. Paul
sums it up quite eloquently in the end of his letter to the Philippians, “Finally, brothers and sisters,
whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely,
whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about
these things. Keep on doing what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me. Then the
God of peace will be with you.”

ST. PIUS X MOTHERS' GROUP - SATURDAY, OCTOBER 11:
The 10 Habits of Happy Catholic Mothers - Workshop Edition! As
moms, we're called to a deeper purpose. However, many moms
undervalue themselves, fall prey to competition and fail to take time
with God. They aren't happy and live in fear of not being "good
enough." Meg Meeker, Catholic writer and pediatrician provides
ways to become a happier mom in her book The 10 Habits of Happy
Mothers. Dr. Meeker wrote the book for all moms of all faiths.
Looking at data collected from interviews with happy moms, those
habits will be addressed with the Catholic mother in mind. Reading
the book is not a prerequisite! After discussing each habit,
participants will work on their Happiness Toolkit, a workbook
designed to make those habits stick. We will pray a rosary at
9:00 a.m. in the church. Our meeting will begin at 9:30 a.m. in the
lower level meeting room. All women of the Area Faith Community
are welcome to attend! For more information, contact Sue Mielke at
320-395-2571.
A GENTLE REMINDER ABOUT PARKING: Please remember
that parking is allowed only in the striped areas of the parking lot.
The open lane from the entrance around the oval and past the school
and church to the exit is an emergency lane, and we ask that you do
not park in those areas. We understand that this may mean walking a
little further than you would prefer, but your cooperation keeps us all
safe in case of an emergency. Remember that there are some spaces
in the lower level parking lot also.

“PAVING THE WAY WITH PRAYER” SCHOOL
MARATHON UPDATE: We ask all parishioners to please make a
donation to this fundraiser that provides 100% profit to our school.
This year our goal is $25,000. As of October 2 we have collected
$9,574.01! We thank everyone who has already made a donation to
our marathon. Last weekend we collected $1,971.25 during the
weekend Masses which means our Knights of Columbus will match
$1,000 of this amount! Thank you! Thank you! We also thank
Fr. Tony for his donation of a Mexican dinner for 12 people. The
winning bid was $800! Thank you to those who donated toward this
dinner. A special thanks to Kathy Krone for leading this auction after
Mass.
After weeks of preparation and hard work by our parents, students,
HandS Advisory Association members, and Knights of Columbus,
we completed our Marathon walk on Friday, October 3, 2014. We
thank everyone in the parish for keeping us in your prayers and for
making a donation to help support this big fundraiser. The Marathon
total will be announced soon. The prayer intention display will be in
the Gathering Space for the remainder of the school year.

second collection for the work of the National Council of Catholic
Women. This collection is part of their “We are One!” campaign. We
ask that every woman, and for that matter every person, make at least
a $1.00 donation to this collection. Your donation will help the
NCCW to further their mission. As their motto for the campaign
states the NCCW is, “United in one faith; combined for effectiveness,
joined in action, organized to serve, connected to succeed, bonded by
friendship and unified in our mission.” Please recognize the great
contribution the CCW makes to our parishes by your participation in
this collection.

Classes and in school. Money and slips are due to Mrs. Kahle by
