THE TEMPLE AND WORSHIP
In all of today’s readings, the temple is prominently mentioned. Ezekiel
speaks of streams of living water
flowing out from the temple, watering
the desert, bringing life to all living
things, offering fresh healing to God’s
people.
Paul reminds the Corinthians that
their faith rests upon the firmest of
foundations, Christ himself. More
than that, Paul reveals that those who follow Christ are themselves temples, temples of the Holy Spirit; that is, God dwells
not only with them, but in them.
For the Jews of Jesus’ time, the temple had come to be identified with the presence of God and the only place where authentic worship of God took place. Jesus had a different perception.
Jesus identified himself not with the temple, but as the temple. In
so doing, Jesus indicated a dramatic shift in what it means to
worship God, to be in God’s presence. No longer was a place to
be the focus of prayer. Instead, a person, the person of Jesus
Christ, becomes the center of our worship.
.
Life is here at St. Francis de Sales.
I wish you all a peaceful week!
Father Hand

Is Your Marriage Blessed by the Church ?
Archdiocesan Tribunal May Be of Help
Do you, or someone you know, have a problem with
marriage in the Catholic Church because of a prior
marriage which has ended in divorce? When a divorced person remarries outside of the Church, he or
she does not receive the grace of the Sacrament of
Matrimony, and separates himself or herself from receiving the Eucharist.
The staff of the Archdiocesan Tribunal—a group of
specially qualified priests, sisters, and lay persons
with the responsibility to assist persons who have experienced divorce– can possibly be of help.
The Tribunal
222 North 17th Street
Philadelphia, PA 19103-1299
215-587-3750
http://archphila.org/tribunal/
The annulment procedure is designed to study the history of the marriage and why it failed. It does not affix
blame. A Decree of Nullity has no effect on the legitimacy of children, or other matters such as custody or
property settlements which are decided by civil law. If
the marriage is annulled, both parties are free to marry
in the Catholic Church.
If you are divorced and remarried outside the Catholic
Church, please contact the Tribunal Office. All interviews are private.
Couples married outside the Church with no previous
marriages should see Father Hand, or Deacon John

you for your prayers and support.
THANKSGIVING DAY MASS
THURSDAY, November
27 is Thanksgiving Day.
There is no better way to
begin this day of thanks
than by attending Mass
with our family and friends to give thanks to God for
all His many blessings. Even in the midst of economic hardships, unemployment, sickness, etc., we have
much for which to be thankful. So before you go to
the parade, the football game or prepare your meal,
come to the 9 AM Mass on Thanksgiving Day and
“Give thanks to the Lord … for He is good.”
