Parish News
Mayonnaise Sunday is Today
Our Mayonnaise donations enable the Catholic Workers
to make their famous French dressing. Three times a
week they chop and toss fresh greens and vegetables
with the salad dressing accompanied by beans, lentils
or other one-meal hot dishes to our happy guests at the
Hospitality kitchen. The Community so appreciates St.
Cyril’s for all our help in serving the poor. Envelopes for
your donations are available at the entrances of the
Church.
The Friendship Circle
The next dinner meeting of St. Cyril's Friendship Circle will be at the 94th Squadron Restaurant at 6 PM on Monday, October 27,

Thank you to all the families who attended our Open
House last Sunday. We had a wonderful turn-out of current and prospective families. School Tours are offered
every Tuesday at 9:00 am. Call the school office at 818501-4155 to reserve a space.
Did you know that St. Cyril School’s 6th, 7th and 8th
Graders participate in the Los Angeles Mock Trial Program. This is an academic competition in which senior
high schools and middle schools compete at the county
level. This year, participation is expected to include
over 2,000 students in Los Angeles County. The trial
itself is a simulation of a criminal case, in which students portray each of the principals in the cast of
courtroom characters. Student teams study a hypothetical case, conduct legal research, and receive guidance from volunteer attorneys in courtroom procedures
and trial preparation. Students participate as lawyers,
witnesses, court clerks, and bailiffs, thus acquiring a
working knowledge of our judicial system. The Mock
Trial Program encourages young people to develop their
analytical abilities and communication skills while gaining increased self-confidence. Good luck to our Teams!
CHARACTER
Character is much easier kept than recovered.
--Thomas Paine
Life Matters
Seventy years ago, abortion was a crime against humanity. Four decades ago, abortion supporters talked
about the “tragedy” of abortion and the need to make
it safe and rare. Not anymore. Now abortion is not
just a right, but a right that claims positive dignity,
the license to demonize its opponents and the precedence to interfere with constitutional guarantees of
freedom of speech, assembly and religion. We no
longer tolerate abortion. We venerate it as a totem.
Over the past 41 years, the profile movement has
been written off as dying too many times to count.
Yet here we are, again and again, disappointing our
critics and refusing to die. And why is that? It’s because the Word of God and the works of God do not
pass away. No court decision, no law and no political
lobby ever change the truth about when human life
begins and the sanctity that God attaches to each and
every human life. Our lives matter not because of
who we are. They matter because of who God is. His
mercy, His justice, His love -- these are the things
that move the galaxies and reach into the womb to
touch the unborn child with the grandeur of being human. And we become more human ourselves by seeing the humanity in the poor, the weak and the unborn child and then fighting for it.

Did You Know?
Talk with your children about safety at school
Back-to-school does not have to mean back-to-worrying.
Though safety inside school is ultimately the responsibility of the principal and school staff, parents can take a
few basic steps to ensure a safe school experience.”
Talk with your child about safety. Be specific. Talk
about instinct and paying attention to funny feelings of
fear. Explain what to do if she doesn't feel safe (find a
teacher, call 911, etc.). Make sure she knows how to
contact you or a trusted neighbor who is likely to be at
home. For more information, please visit: scholastic.com/parents/resources/article/parent-teacherpartnerships/6-rules-school-safety
