Held in front of Planned Parenthood on Almond Ave. BANNS OF MARRIAGE Jeovany Silva Selene Mendez VOCATIONS CORNER About my life? Your will be done, Lord! PASTOR’S CORNER “Philadelphia Couple creates ‘bucket list’ for terminally ill, unborn son.” This headline introduced me to the most inspiring pro-life story I’ve seen in years. Jenna and Dan Haley were told in April that their son, who they named Shane, has anencephaly, a defect in which the baby is born without parts of the brain and skull. Almost all babies born with the condition die shortly after birth. Most parents are so devastated by such news that they go along with the standard medical advice to abort the child as soon as possible. However, strengthened by their Catholic faith, Dan and Jenna respected the intrinsic dignity of their son as a gift from God and would not consider the direct killing of their child. A post on their Facebook page read, “We are asking for your prayers and support and that God grants us as much time as possible with our beautiful son. Shane has already proven to us that each day must be lived to the fullest, and that is exactly what our little family is doing.” The Haleys visited the places associated with their favorite childhood memories: baseball games, museums, the beach and a pumpkin patch. Little Shane was born on October 9. He survived for four hours, surrounded by unconditional love, baptized into the Catholic Faith, dying peacefully in his mother’s arms, and then, passing into the glory of God’s eternal Kingdom. October is Respect Life Month. Praise God! Blessings, Fr. John ST. MARELLO BOOKSTORE The bookstore is in need of volunteers! Training classes will be November 1st and 8th at 2:30 pm.

MARRIAGE, DIVORCE & ANNULMENT There is no other topic more sensitive to many Catholics than the Church’s teachings on marriage and divorce. Why so many rules about marriage? Can I attend a wedding of a Catholic marrying outside the Church? What about Catholics married only civilly? Why does the Church oppose divorce? What is an annulment? Can divorced and remarried Catholics receive Holy Communion?

RINCÓN DEL PÁRROCO Pareja en Filadelfia crea una “canasta antes de morir” para su hijo no nacido con una enfermedad terminal”. Este titular me introdujo al cuento más inspirante de pro-vida que he visto en años. En abril Jenna y Dan Hailey recibieron la noticia de que su hijo, a quien nombraron Shane, tenía anencefalia, un esta condición mueren muy pronto después de haber nacido. La mayoría de los padres están tan lo más defecto en el cual él bebe nace sin partes de su cerebro y su cráneo. Casi todos los bebes nacidos con pronto posible. Sin embargo, fortalecidos por su fe Católica, Dan y Jenna respetaron la dignidad intrínseca de su hijo como un obsequio de Dios y nunca su madre, y después, pasando a la gloria del Reino eterno de Dios. Octubre es el Mes del Respeto a la Vida, ¡Alabado sea Dios!entristecidos por estas noticias que deciden seguir los consejos médicos estándares consideraron el asesinato directo de su hijo. Una entrada en su página de Facebook dijo, “Les estamos pidiendo sus oraciones y apoyo y que Dios nos otorgue el más tiempo posible con nuestro hermosos hijo. Shane ya nos ha comprobado que cada día se necesita vivir a plenitud y eso es exactamente lo que nuestra pequeña familia está haciendo.” La familia Hailey visitó los lugares asociados con las mejores memorias de su niñez, juegos de béisbol, museos, la playa y el huerto de calabazas. El pequeño Shane nació el 9 de octubre. Él vivió por cuatro horas, rodeado de un amor incondicional, bautizado en la fe Católica, muriendo en paz en los brazos de de abortar al niño Bendiciones P.
