Dear Friends,
As we wrap up National Vocation Awareness Week, the
readings are very appropriate as we hear about building. Our
second reading speaks of the building of our lives as temples
in the Lord, and the building of the Church, making it what
God has called it to be. All of this must start with a firm
foundation, and that foundation is in Christ. Our call to build
the Church means that we need to reach out to our young
men and women and encourage them to consider the
vocation that God is calling them to live. Especially as we
conclude Vocation Awareness Week, lets consider who in
our parish community may have a call to serve as a priest or
in the religious life and encourage him or her to prayerfully
consider their calling in God. Thank you to all who have
offered prayer and support to help increase vocations in our
diocese
WE ARE DELIGHTED TO INVITE YOU TO SEE AND
PURCHASE HANDMADE RELIGIOUS ARTICLES
MADE BY THE SISTERS OF ST. ELIZABETH
CONVENT (BELARUS). The expedition will take place after
all the masses next weekend Nov. 15/16. Please be attentive to
the flyer in this week’s bulletin for full details.
THE FLAG WILL FLY on Tues., Nov. 11, in memory of
Albert Colatruglio, this being the anniversary of his birth.
The flag will also fly on Fri., Nov. 14, in memory of William
E. Terihay, this being the anniversary of his birth.
IN YOUR CHARITY, please pray for soul of Anthony
Rivalsky, brother of Roseanne Duraney, who recently passed
away. May his soul and all the souls of our faithful departed, rest
in peace.
The month of November is a time set aside to especially
remember in prayer those of our family and friends who have
died. Just inside the doors of the church (to your right
coming from the gathering space), you will find a stand that
holds the Book of Remembrance of the Dead. You are
invited during this month to put the names of family and
friends in the book who died from November 1, 2013 to
now. All of the names listed in the book will be remembered
in a special way at all our Masses during November.
HAPPENINGS ELSEWHERE:

Thank you to those who have returned your baby bottles
filled with change for the First Step for Change program.
This program benefits those who cannot afford the basic
necessities for their babies and toddlers. The proceeds will
help buy formula, diapers, and other necessary items for
those in need. Thank you for your generosity.
Light And Hope During The Holidays: Normally a time of joy and
celebration, the holidays often have a much different effect on those who
have experienced the death of a loved one. For some, they can result in a
renewed sense of personal grief, accompanied by feelings of sadness, loss,
loneliness, and emptiness. “It’s a perfectly understandable reaction,” says
Sr. Pat Fessler, H.M., Bereavement Coordinator at Higgins-Reardon
Funeral Homes. “The holidays are such a special time and there is a great
deal of emotion and activity associated with them; yet if a loved
one has died, the holidays are not the same. They can be
difficult and painful yet joyous.” Please join us at HigginsReardon Funeral Homes for one of the following programs
on “Light and Hope During the Holidays:” Sun., Nov. 16,
2PM, 3701 Starr’s Centre Dr., Canfield; Tues., Nov. 18, 6:30PM, 439 S.
Salem-Warren Rd., N. Jackson; Thurs., Nov. 20, 7PM, 2726 Center Rd.,
Poland. In keeping with the spirit of giving, please bring a gift of mittens,
gloves, scarves, hats, or socks in memory of your loved one to be given to
the needy. Please tag gifts: male, female, adult, child, boy, or girl. To
RSVP, call (330) 792-2353.
If you have watched any amount of TV you most likely have
noticed that we are being inundated with Christmas
commercials. As the Christmas season gears up, let us keep
in mind daily what really matters, the birth of our Lord Jesus
Christ. Keeping this as part of our prayer will help us to put
all else into proper perspective.
Stay warm with God’s Blessings,
Fr. Chris
