Saint Joseph Parish Mission Statement
Declaración de la Misión de la Parroquia de San José
We, the people of Saint Joseph Parish, by the grace of God,
born again in the waters of Baptism, seek to create a
community where our mutual faith in Jesus as Lord and
Savior, encourages us to continue growing as disciples. We
believe that discipleship is a way of life. We strive to show
that we are committed disciples, eager to welcome the
stranger, feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, and comfort
the bereaved. Inspired by God’s word and nourished by the
Eucharist, we pledge ourselves to active discipleship all for
God’s greater glory and honor.
Nosotros, parroquianos de San José, por la gracia de Dios,
nacidos de nuevo en las aguas del bautismo, buscamos crear
una comunidad donde nuestra fe en común en Jesús como
Señor y Salvador, nos anime a seguir creciendo como
discípulos. Creemos que el discipulado es una manera de
vida. Nos esforzamos por demostrar que somos discípulos
comprometidos, deseosos de dar la bienvenida al extranjero,
alimentar al hambriento, abrigar al desprotegido y confortar
al afligido. Inspirados en la palabra de Dios y alimentados
por la Eucaristía, nos comprometemos a ser discípulos
activos para mayor gloria y honra de Dios.

On October 14th, Saint Joseph Academy held their annual
Pumpkin Patch for all students. Older students assisted their
‘buddies’ in the younger grades pick out a pumpkin and fun
was had by all. Pictured above are seventh grade students,
Alex and Amadeo, with their Kindergarten buddy, Emilio.
TUITION ANGEL FUND
As we know, the downturn of the economy in recent
years has had a tremendous impact on all of us. Many families
who have students in Catholic schools feel the ever increasing
pressures of meeting their family's needs along with the additional
impact of tuition.
We here at Saint Joseph Academy have established a
"Tuition Angel Fund". The purpose of the fund is to help families
who are struggling financially yet are committed to providing their
child(ren) with a Catholic education. We look to our parishioners
to help us keep this vital resource available to the young families of
our parish. Please consider making regular donations to this fund
knowing that you are helping spread the word of God through your
generosity by supporting some very needy families and their children in Saint Joseph Academy. Donations may also be made in
memory of a loved one or a friend with an acknowledgement
being sent to their family. We even have children that look to share
their blessings by asking their families to make donations to the
"Tuition Angel" fund instead of receiving presents at birthdays,
holidays, etc.
Also, if your resources are such, please consider
"adopting" a student, thus supporting a student(s) by paying all or
part of the monthly tuition. We have many single parents
and families who desperately would like their child to attend Saint
Joseph Academy but do not have the resources to pay. Please feel
free to add your check to the weekly collection basket in an
envelope clearly marked "Tuition Angel" or contact the school
office for more information at 201-487-8641. May God bless your
generosity. Your donations can truly make a difference in a young
child's life.

LOOKING TO THE LAST DAY
Today the Church remembers all who have walked the way
of Christ and passed from this life. The readings all look to the last
day, when we shall all rise from the dead and be reunited.
The prophet Daniel announces words of warning and welfare.
He cautions us against the judgment to come, but he also comforts
us and assures us that all who live a life of virtue and justice will
find life eternal.
The reading from Romans reminds us that, because of
Christ’s passion, death, and resurrection and our entrance into that
paschal mystery through baptism, we now share in the new life
won by Christ. This recognition has repercussions: we need to live
righteously now, that we might rise to life forever with Christ on
the last day.
In the Gospel Jesus pledges that all the Father has given him
will not be lost. All the faithful will be raised to joy and live
forever in the presence of God. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TODAY’S READINGS
The readings listed here are chosen from the broad selection
available for this Sunday.

(Psalm 23).

MIRANDO HACIA EL ÚLTIMO DIA
Hoy la Iglesia recuerda a todos los que han caminado el
camino de Cristo y han pasado a la otra vida. Las lecturas todas
miran al último día, cuando todos resucitaremos de entre los
muertos y nos encontraremos de nuevo.
El profeta Daniel anuncia palabras de prevención y
bienestar. Nos previene sobre el juicio que ha de venir, pero
también nos consuela y nos asegura que todo el que vive una vida
de virtud y de justicia alcanzará la vida eterna.
La lectura de romanos nos recuerda que, por la pasión,
muerte y resurrección de Cristo y por nuestra participación en ese
misterio pascual mediante el Bautismo, nosotros ahora
compartimos esa nueva vida que Cristo nos ganó. Este
reconocimiento tiene repercusiones: necesitamos vivir justamente
ahora, para poder alcanzar la vida eterna con Cristo en el último
día.
En el Evangelio Jesús promete que ninguno de aquellos que
el Padre le ha confiado se perderá. Todos los justos serán
resucitados para gozar y vivir eternamente en la presencia de
Dios. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

PASTOR’S DESK—ESCRITORIO DEL PASTOR
Last week we heard the first of our presentations on
Stewardship. Many thanks to Myrna Bruno, Joan LaSala,
Kathleen Roche, Lorraine Kolinkowski and Miguel and Rosa
Jimenez who shared about the Stewardship of Time. Their
very personal sharings showed each of us how best we can use
our time for growth in a life of intimacy with the Lord and
service to others.
This weekend we will hear about the Stewardship of
Talent. How best do we use our talents that God has given to
us. In a few weeks all will be asked to consider becoming
more involved in the life of our parish and various ministries.
Above all this is meant to be a time of prayer and reflection
for each of us as we look at our relationship with God and our
life of service.
May this be a time of blessing for each of us and our
parish family.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
For those of Mexican heritage, November 2 means
celebration of el Dia de Los Muertos,or “the Day of the Dead.”
One of the most important days of the year for many, they join All
Saints and All Souls together, visiting the graves of babies and
children on All Saints, since they are santitos (little saints) or angelitos (little angels). Flowers, their favorite toys, favorite music,
and so on, are taken to them. The following day, people spend
time—some of them all day—at the cemetery with their loved
ones who have died. From the ancient customs of the Indians the
families pray, talk with them, and take them their favorite food. It
is a most solemn but joyful day. It is a day to celebrate Christ’s
victory over death: “Death, where is your sting?” There is a mocking of death as people make skeletons, candy that represents death,
and Pan de los Muertos (bread of the dead) and consume them in
a kind of role reversal. One of the customs is to build an altarcito
(little altar) where one places mementos and pictures of those who
have died. There are also favorite foods, candles, statues or pictures of favorite saints, books, and Bibles. Some parishes have
begun to build an altarcito where all parishioners can join in honoring the deceased. A remembrance book can be placed to write
names in. The altarcito is traditionally left up for the month of
November. -Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
La semana pasada nos enteramos de la primera
de nuestras presentaciones sobre la Corresponsabilidad.
Muchas gracias a Myrna Bruno, Joan LaSala, Kathleen
Roche, Lorena Kolinkowski y Miguel y Rosa Jiménez, quienes
compartieron sobre la mayordomía de tiempo. Sus puestas en
común muy personales mostraron cada uno de nosotros la
mejor manera que podemos utilizar nuestro tiempo para
crecer en una vida de intimidad con el Señor y el servicio a
los demás.
Este fin de semana vamos a oír hablar de la Administración de Talento. ¿Cómo hacer mejor usamos nuestros talentos que Dios nos ha dado. En un par de semanas todo se les
pedirá que considere la posibilidad de participar más en la
vida de nuestra parroquia y varios ministerios. Por encima de
todo esto está destinado a ser un tiempo de oración y reflexión para cada uno de nosotros si nos fijamos en nuestra
relación con Dios y nuestra vida de servicio.
Que este sea un tiempo de bendición para cada uno
de nosotros y nuestra familia parroquial.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Cuando era niño tuve problemas con inaguantables
dolores de cabeza. Después de casi tres meses batallando
con esta enfermedad una señora me regaló una estampita
de san Martín de Porres que contenía un pedacito de su
hábito. Dormí con esta estampita debajo de mi almohada y
al tercer día sané de mi dolor.
Martín fue un religioso dominico de nacionalidad peruana que vivió de 1579 a 1639 y fue canonizado en 1962.
Sin lugar a dudas, es uno de los santos más populares de
América Latina. En él encontramos una persona con la cual
nos podemos identificar ya que muchas veces a nosotros
nos limitan las oportunidades debido a nuestro origen y el
color de nuestra piel. Por su origen (era hijo de un español
y de una africana) ilegítimo y su color mulato, Martín tuvo
problemas para ingresar a la Orden de los Predicadores.
Eventualmente la santidad de sus obras y la fama de sus
milagros le abrieron camino para incorporarse plenamente
a los dominicos.
Normalmente es representado con una escoba y unos
animalitos, recordando la humildad de su servicio pastoral.

“DEATH IS AS MUCH A PART OF LIFE AS BIRTH.
It is a universal human experience, yet the grief that results from the death of a loved one-and how we process itis uniquely individual. There are many personal, cultural,
and situational factors that determine the grief reaction”
-Coping with the Death of Your Loved One
Janet McCormack, Office of Family Life Ministries
Over the next several weeks there will be more information about the grieving process which is called
“bereavement”. If you or someone you know has experienced a loss and would like to speak with a bereavement
counselor, please leave your name and phone number with
