Points of Ellipses...
...by Fr. Jeff
ou may or may not have been aware that the Holy
Father had convened an extraordinary Synod for the
Family in Rome these past few weeks, which ends this
weekend. A synod is an official gathering of the Church for the
sake of studying a particular issue in order to give guidance to
pastors and faithful alike. In this case, Pope Francis had invited the
Church to spend time examining the particular issues and
challenges to family life in the modern world.
Bishops,
theologians, married couples, and non-Catholic Christian
observers were invited to participate in this month’s proceedings.
It should be kept in mind that this extraordinary synod was
convened for the sake of laying the groundwork for the ordinary
synod, which will take place in October 2015.
his past week, the news media erupted with sensational
stories about how the Church was adopting new
teachings on divorce-and-remarriage, same-sex unions,
cohabitation before marriage, and so forth. These stories were
based on a working draft of a document being produced by the
synod participants that was made public earlier this week. In its
rough state, neither was its language precise nor did it yet reflect
the input of all the participants. Any faithful Catholic should
know, however, that the doctrine of the Church and the Gospel of
Jesus Christ are unalterable. As St. Paul wrote in his letter to the
Galatians, “There are some who are disturbing you and wish to
pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from
heaven should preach [to you] a gospel other than the one that
we preached to you, let that one be accursed! As we have said
before, and now I say again, if anyone preaches to you a gospel
other than the one that you received, let that one be
accursed!” (1:7-9).
ope Francis has asked the synod participants to address
the issues facing the family today and to discuss new
ways to support those families trying to live the truth of
marriage and family life. Additionally, he has asked them to
address ways that the Church can better reach out to those who
are not living in conformity with God’s plan for marriage and the
family. In neither case has he asked for an alteration of the Gospel
or the teachings of the Church. Despite the wishful thinking of
the secular media, the Church cannot adopt the ways of the fallen
world. Rather, she must always speak prophetically about the
beauty of the Gospel and the goodness of God’s plan for us.

available this Wednesday evening at 7:00—8:00 p.m.
 ALL SAINTS & ALL SOULS DAY M ASSES: This year, All
Saints Day (Nov. 1) falls on a Saturday, which means
that Mass attendance is not obligatory—though still
encouraged—for the Holyday. Holyday Masses will be
offered both on the evening of Friday, Oct. 31st and
on the morning of Saturday, Nov. 1st. The evening
Mass on Nov. 1st (5:30 p.m.) will be the Vigil Mass for
All Souls Day, which falls on a Sunday this year.
 ALL SOULS DAY INTENTION ENVELOPES: Please note
that there are two envelopes in your stewardship
packets for November 2nd: one is for the usual
Sunday offering and the other is for All Souls Day.
Please keep these separate. Only offerings in the
Sunday envelope will be recorded as regular
stewardship to the parish. The envelope for All Souls
Day is for Mass intentions for those who have died.
Mass will be offered each First Friday of the month
throughout the year for these intentions. Please
include in your All Souls Day envelope a list of the
names of your beloved dead whom you would like
remembered in our monthly Mass intentions for All
Souls. Additionally, you may include a stipend with
your Mass request in this envelope. This stipend is
not recorded as stewardship to the parish as it is your
gift to the priest who celebrates those Masses.

led by Carrie Hochstein. November’s cleaning group

The
Homeless Jesus
Sculpture by
Timothy P. Schmalz
Detail of the
Precious
Wounds of
Christ.
This striking and challenging statue by Timothy Schmalz is being made available to Catholic parishes across
the country for the special purchase price of $39.00, which includes free shipping to the church. The
inspiration and creation of this masterpiece came from Tim’s encounter with Christ in a homeless man on the
streets of Toronto in 2012. Last year, Pope Francis viewed and blessed Tim’s original statue in Rome. As
one gazes upon this statue, one cannot help but remember Bl. Teresa of Calcutta’s words about finding Jesus
in the “most distressing disguise” of the poor. A replica of the statue will be available at the Fall Dinner and
at the parish offices this week for viewing. Orders will be taken through October 31st.

2014 Cedar Catholic Annual Fund Chairpersons
Tom and Beth Stevens & Family
October 2014
The Stevens’ Support the Tradition of Catholic education. They invite you to also support the 2014 Cedar Catholic Annual Fund Drive.
Dear Holy Trinity High School/Cedar Catholic High School Alumni & Friends,
We believe Catholic education gives children a strong foundation to their faith by providing
religion classes and Mass almost every school day.
We wanted our children to get a firmer foundation in their faith by attending a Catholic School.
Being around that environment every day is a constant - a habit for them.
We send our children to Catholic schools to continue what our parents and grandparents started.
It benefits the children while passing on the gift previous generations gave to us.
Catholic education can build a firmer ground hopefully strong enough that when our kids are
faced with tough trials they know where to turn and get strength from. They will also know where all
their blessings come from and who to thank.
We invite you to help strengthen Cedar Catholic today with a gift to assist the School’s annual
budget. A gift to this years’ Annual Drive will help general budget costs of education and help complete the
school bus loan close to term. Cedar Catholic basically operates on donations and tuition. The school’s
needs are funded by gifts and fundraising, parish subsidy via donations and tuition.
It is amazing that our Catholic high school has been operating for 110 years on generosity and
commitment.
It seems obvious. Why shouldn't we send our children for a Catholic education? It’s available to us.
We should utilize it. We are thankful we have the Catholic school so close.
Thank you for your support of the 2014 Cedar Catholic Annual Fund Drive. Thanks to you will
also be offered and remembered at school Masses said for alumni, friends and benefactors on October 23, 2014
at 2:45 p.m., January 30, 2015 at 2:50 p.m., February 27, 2015 at 2:45 p.m. and March 27, 2015 at 2:45 p.m.
