Stewardship Corner
We fulfill the commandment to love our
neighbor when we exercise good stewardship
— joyfully sharing our gifts of life, abilities,
and resources to meet our neighbor’s need.
All Saints Library Update
A sincere thank you to those who have generously donated
new or gently used books for others to enjoy. As we are
updating the library system, we are removing duplicates to
create more shelf space. They will be on the library cart in
the narthex for anyone one who wants to give them a new
home.
PLEASE NOTE We cannot take any more donated
books at this time. We want to preserve the quality of
books available and not overcrowd the space.
Taking Out Books
When you take out books or CDs please put the information
called for on the clipboard on the small table between the
library shelves.
Returning Books
Put returned books and CD’s on the bookshelves next to the
entrance marked “Return Books Here.” Please do not try to
put them on the shelves as we need to check them in. Then
cross off the information on the clipboard and note the date
you returned them.
Again, thank you for your generosity in donating books the
past few years. Our goal is to offer Catholic classics, spiritual
renewal, daily meditation, saints, up to date information
about our Catholic faith, and resources for specific topics for
those in formation and those seeking good Christian fiction.
Supporting Education in Haiti
See the smiling faces, and the serious ones,
too? These are the children and youth of our
sister parish, Notre Dame De Lourdes, Belle
Fontaine, Haiti. Please join in supporting their education.
Take a picture home and pray for all these students. Their
opportunities may seem limited but each year we learn more
and see the light grow brighter as we support, encourage and
empower this rural Haitian community.
Through your generous efforts Fr. Magloire provides for the
education of 4,500+ students. To fund their schooling
for a year we ask for $150 per student. Form a team:
families, classes, any group can share a student sponsorship.
Donations in any amount may be placed in the collection
basket at Mass or mailed to All Saints Parish business office.
Checks should be made out to All Saints Parish. Please write
“Haiti Students” in the memo line and on the envelope.
Thank you from the students of Notre Dame de Lourdes and
the Haiti Committee!
“Priye pou nou, nap priye pou ou.”
“Pray for us we pray for you.”
Please Pray For the Following People
Our RCIA Candidates Need Sponsors!
(Why people want prayers isn't important, the prayers are!)
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults and
children over the age of reason (7) [RCIA], is
the process for non-Catholics to join the
Church. An important part of that process is
those who walk with the Candidates and
Catechumen as their sponsors. This season we
have 9 adults and 3 children so far. Some have a sponsor but
we need 3 more for the adults and 3 for the children (ages
10,12 & 7).
Who can be a Sponsor?
Anyone who is a baptized and Confirmed Catholic who is
active in the Church is eligible to be a sponsor. Your witness
as a practicing Catholic is the most important qualification.
No special degree is required, just a prayerful and caring
heart.
What is the Time Commitment?
From now until Easter Vigil in early April you will be asked
to give an hour to an hour and a half a week, either Sunday
morning or Thursday evening. But those who have been
sponsors can tell you, it’s addicting! You learn as much as the
candidates do in the process. We are forming a community,
not just learning about the Church.
What does a Sponsor do?
1. Prays for the person they are sponsoring.
2. Represents the community of All Saints.
3. Listens to their needs and questions.
4. Is a companion, sharing time and support.
5. Is respectful of the person’s faith background, and
becomes a bridge during the transition from their former
religious affiliation to Catholicism.
6. Is present for the main Rites and as often as possible for
the weekly sessions.
Can you help?

A Changing Way of Life for Priests
On the one hand, the core role of the priest is clear and neverchanging. On the other, there has been a dramatic change in
what priests do and in the presence of priests within the
Catholic Church in the United States.
Think about a priest in 1950 and think about one today. In
1950 there were 652 Catholics per priest, most of whom were
in active ministry. By 2000, there were 1,257 Catholics per
priest, and nearly a third of all priests are retired or over the
age of 70.
Today, priests collaborate in ministry with a wide variety of
specialized lay ecclesial ministers and deacons who serve as
Directors of Religious Education, youth ministers, pastoral
associates, and many other roles.
Of the more than 19,000 Catholic parishes in the United
States, a little more than 4,000 have more than one priest. On
the other hand, over 2,000 parishes have a pastor who
simultaneously pastors another parish. Another 8,000 parishes
are served by a single priest-pastor who pastors no other
parish.
Priests live in their parish communities—typically the same
building where parish offices are located, "above the store" so
to speak, often with a minimum of privacy. Almost all
diocesan priests in active parish ministry are on call 24 hours a
day—more than 90 percent, according to one recent survey of
priests conducted by CARA, the Center for Applied Research
in the Apostolate at Georgetown University.
From 1970 to the present, the total number of priests fell by
20,000, or one-third of the total number of priests in 1970.
Yet priests' dedication to their people has dramatically
cushioned this remarkable reduction in numbers. As a result,
almost all Catholics say they are aware that there are fewer
priests, but only one in four report that this has affected them
(CARA Catholic Poll 2000).
Like Protestant seminarians, Catholic seminarians are now
spread across the entire age range. More than a third of
seminarians are over the age of 35. Combined with fewer
vocations to priesthood in general, this means that there are
now dramatically fewer priests under the age of 35. In 1965,
one in five of all active diocesan priests were under 35. By
2000, fewer than one in twenty active diocesan priests were
under 35. Priests are older today and there are simply fewer
priests to whom they can turn for assistance and support.
In spite of all these challenges, priests are not merely satisfied
in their ministry; they report being highly satisfied. Only a
handful of priests say they would not become a priest if they
had it to do all over again. In a survey conducted for the Los
Angeles Times, just 7 percent of all priests who were polled
felt this way.
The sheer giving nature of priests. It's something to celebrate.
It's something for which we need to thank God. It's something
for which we need to thank priests.
Counters Wanted!
Looking for a way to give your
Power of One hour of service?
We are looking for people
interested in offering counting.
Volunteers will come in on
Sunday once a month (or less if
we get more volunteers/1) to count the offering.
If interested, please contact Jenn Boyens, bookkeeper for All

A Reflection on the Catholic Vision of Respect for Life
Excerpt By Peter J. Cataldo, Ph.D.,
Each of us is called to respect life. It is a call that resonates in
the heart and conscience of every person in every time, place,
and circumstance. St. Paul tells us today that the human body
is “for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body,” that the body is
from God, and that we are not our own. What Christ offers to
every human being is that fullness of life which shares in the
life of God. This sharing in God’s life gives human life an
inestimable value and makes it a sacred reality entrusted to us
by God. We, the recipients of God’s precious gift of life, may
not dominate this gift and treat it as a mere object but are
called to be good stewards of it. “In giving life to man,” the
Holy Father tells us, “God demands that he love, respect and
promote life. The gift thus becomes a commandment, and the
commandment is itself a gift” (The Gospel of Life, 52).
The gift and dignity of life, however, face multiple threats
today both old and new. There are the “ancient scourges,” as
John Paul II calls them: poverty, hunger, endemic diseases,
violence, and war. The list of threats includes genocide,
mutilation, torture, subhuman living conditions, arbitrary
imprisonment, deportation, and disgraceful working
conditions. The newer threats include widespread abortion,
euthanasia, human cloning, human embryonic stem cell
research, drugs, and tampering with the world’s ecological
balance.
As the threats to human life and dignity are many, so also are
there many dimensions to respecting life. In his eloquent
reflection on the commandment, “You shall not kill,” found in
his encyclical The Gospel of Life, Pope John Paul II explains
how this commandment is both an absolute prohibition against
murder and an absolute positive requirement. This imperative
is “to respect, love and promote the life of every brother and
sister, in accordance with the requirements of God’s bountiful
love in Jesus Christ” (The Gospel of Life, n. 76). To preserve the
commandment not to murder is at the same time to work to
protect and serve all those who are weak and vulnerable: the
sick, the poor, victims of racism, immigrants, widows and
widowers, orphans, the hungry, the thirsty, the naked, and the
imprisoned. “The deepest element of God’s commandment to
protect human life,” the Holy Father writes, “is the
requirement to show reverence and love for every person and
the life of every person” (The Gospel of Life, n. 41).
Because the right to life is the foundation of all the other
inalienable rights, to be pro-life is to contribute to and
acknowledge the common good in its entirety, and likewise,
to advance the common good is to acknowledge and defend
the fundamental right to life (see The Gospel of Life, n. 20). This
means that whoever is committed to respecting human life and
dignity must recognize two things: that any single issue does
not exhaust respect for life, and that preeminent among the
threats to human dignity are those that directly and
intentionally take innocent human life. Who among us is not in
some way discouraged and disheartened about the way in
which people are marginalized, how human life is treated as a
mere object, and how our society in many ways seems
engulfed by a culture of death. To be counter-cultural can be a
lonely task. Nevertheless, we are a people of hope. Pope
Benedict XVI has taught that “Man’s great, true hope which
holds firm in spite of all disappointments can only be
God,” (Saved in Hope, n. 27).
Prayer for Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Father, for the strength you have given me I thank you.
For the health you have blessed me with, I thank you.
For the women who are going through breast cancer and
their families
I ask you to strengthen and to heal as you see fit.
Lord we know you want us to be in good health and to
prosper.
Lord use us to do the work you have for us to do.
For we know time is getting short on this earth.
Lord be with every woman who is sick
and encourage them as only you can.
I know how faithful you are.
You have shown yourself to be everything
you say you are in your Holy Word.
I praise you for you made this body
and you can heal this body.
In Jesus Name I pray.
Amen.
