Distributing Clothes to the Homeless

the homeless with the PB & J Outreach –our first trip was in
August and the teens were blown away by the experience.

Detroit. We will arrive back at approximately 10:15AM. Please
dress warmly.

Men’s Hat and Glove Drive for Homeless
The PB& J Outreach has been struggling to provide enough
warm hats and gloves for the gentlemen they serve. So when we
bring our group to work with this Outreach on November 22,
we are hoping to bring a substantial donation of men’s hats and
gloves to hand out. Any teen or parishioner who is interested in
contributing to our donation is invited to drop off gently used or
new men’s hats and/or gloves in the “Life Teen—Donations for
PB & J Outreach” box in the coatroom next to the vestibule.
Camp Covecrest (Tiger, Georgia): July 27—August 1. 2015
For over 10 years, Life Teen International has provided

What Camp Covecrest Offers High School Teens: Ropes
courses, messy games, many opportunities to encounter God
through the Sacraments, powerful talks given by some of the
best speakers in Catholic Youth Ministry, dynamic worship lead
by some of the most gifted music ministers, a chance to develop
a deeper and more meaningful prayer life, a time to strengthen
existing friendships and create new ones…the list goes on! Visit
http://lifeteen.com/camps/ for the promotional video.
Information Meeting for Parents: 20 teens will have the
opportunity to experience Camp Covecrest. Interested in your
son or daughter being one of those blessed teens? There will be

St. Cyril Book Club
"For 60 years, St. John Bosco had many vision-like dreams
that foretold the extraordinary mission God had for him, and
also guided him as it came to fruition. Fr. Bosco shared the
dreams with his boys. Sometimes the youths faced tremendous
challenges, and in other dreams the state of their souls were
revealed. The remarkable dreams/visions continue to provide
us in the modern era with important lessons and insights as we
grow in sanctity and fulfill our purposes in life."
"The Forty Dreams of St. John Bosco" is the book selected for
the month of November. St. Cyril's Book Club will meet on
Monday, November 24, at 7:00PM in Room #112. This book
can be purchased on line or at Faith@Work at (248) 250-9216.
Come join us!
"Trust all things to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament
and to Mary, Help of Christians,
and you will see what miracles are." ~ Saint John Bosco

Investiture of the
Miraculous Medal
On November 27, 1830, the Blessed
Virgin Mary appeared to Sister
Catherine Labouré and left a concrete
sign, the Miraculous Medal. This
medal signifies her maternal love for
us, and serves as her invitation to assist
her in building the Kingdom of God.
On November 22, there will be a solemn ceremony of
investiture of the Miraculous Medal, during which the Church
blesses the medal with solemn prayers and invests it upon the
shoulders of the candidate who according to Holy Mary’s
promise will thereby “receive great graces.”
Preparation for the investiture:
Novena from November 13 to 21, 2014
Confession at least 2 weeks before the date
Enrollment Deadline November 14, 2014
A packet containing the Novena, miraculous medal and the
blue ribbon will be available at the Parish Office. A small free
will donation for the packet is appreciated.
If you wish to be conferred or if you have any questions,
please contact: Donna Mazurkievicz, (586) 268-4235 or
Susan Schoenstein, (248) 652-2856
We need your contact information so we can form a company
of prayer warriors whom we can quickly contact via internet if
possible when the need arises. We will keep your information
confidential. Please watch the bulletin board for more details.

ADORATION 101
“Lord, stay with us.“ (St. Luke 24:29)
As we introduce Perpetual Adoration to Ss. Cyril & Methodius in the coming year,
we will print installments in the bulletin of what we call “Adoration 101.” Adoration 101 will be a reflection on the sheer beauty and wisdom of Holy Mother
Church and the Saints as they reflect upon our Lord Jesus Christ truly present,
body, blood, soul and divinity in the Most Blessed Sacrament and our own devotion (response) to Him. What makes Catholicism so unique is that she offers all of
us the opportunity to live a life fully alive! Pope St. John Paul II said that, “The
Church draws her life from the Eucharist” (Encyclical; Ecclesia de Eucharistia, 1) and we need to come to realize the great
opportunity we’ve been given as Catholics that we too, individually within the Mystical Body of Christ, draw our life from
Jesus Christ in the Eucharist as well.
Consider the following: Already in the infant Church, the faithful did not doubt that by the words of consecration said by the
priest during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, what had once been bread is now the living Christ. However, as certain theories
began to emerge that called the Real Presence into question, two things happened: The Church's magisterium began to express her Eucharistic faith in even sharper and clearer terms; and the Church's saints began to foster devotion to the living
Christ who is present in our midst in the Blessed Sacrament.
The classic expression of faith in the Real Presence was drafted by Pope St. Gregory VII in a Eucharistic Creed that leaves
no room for compromise: “I believe in my heart and openly profess that the bread and wine placed upon the altar are, by
the mystery of the sacred prayer and the words of the Redeemer, substantially changed into the true and life-giving flesh and
blood of Jesus Christ our Lord, and that after the consecration there is present the true body of Christ which was born of the
Virgin and offered up for the salvation of the world, being hung on the cross and now sits at the right hand of the Father,
and there is present the true blood of Christ which flowed from His side. They are present not only by means of a sign and of
the efficacy of the sacrament, but also in the very reality and truth of their nature and substance.” (Council of Rome, February 11,1079)
As we continue our own journey in life, let us examine ourselves in light of Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist and recognize
all that He offers us. Can you say this Eucharistic Creed with full conviction, trusting our Lord and Savior that He really is
truly and physically present to us just as He was truly and physically present to the disciples almost 2000 years ago in Palestine? Ask the Holy Spirit to strengthen your faith where needed and watch, and exclaim with St. Thomas, “My Lord and my
God!” (Jn. 20:28) as our lives become radiant beams of faith, hope and most especially love!
Lord, “stay with us” (Lk. 24:29) as we bring You to your people; change hearts and enlighten minds to the
truth that You truly are the way, the truth and the life (Jn. 14:6) and that You are the authentic path to lasting
happiness! Paul A. Ray
If you feel God is calling you to stay with Him for one hour each week
and would like to volunteer your time to sit with Him in quiet prayer and adoration please either:
email Julie Varchetti, Paul A. Ray or David and Nicole Maul at [email protected]
or call Julie Varchetti, (586) 214-1825
to let us know what time(s) work the best for you!
