FROM THE DESK OF MSGR. DANIEL DEUTSCH
My experience with The Light of the World retreat has been profound. It has literally changed my life and
priesthood. The encounter with the Holy Spirit that I had that weekend and the many since in parishes where
I have served, has been exciting and challenging. Please join me and the staff of St. Bridget next weekend
for this time with Jesus and the renewal of your spirit. All of the teachers and staff are in the process of going on the retreat. Either they have already or they will be making it by next spring at the Spring LOTW
retreat. See this bulletin for details and see you there.
I'd also like you to take up your copy or pick up a new one of 33 Days to Morning Glory. This Consecration
is also a way to deepen your relationship with Christ through Mary. Even if you have already made the
consecration, you can do it again and again. I've made many, always finding new ways to grow. It started last Wednesday
and goes through December 8th. Even if you’re picking it up late, just catch up the days you missed and settle into a nice
month of prayer and inspiration.
I will be talking this Tuesday night on the 4 last things: Heaven, hell, judgment and purgatory. It should be fun and won't last
more than an hour. See you Tuesday at 7pm in the church.
I also want to comment on one of the great strengths that I have noticed about St. Bridget: her community and the way she
always finds ways to bridge differences so that we can really be one body in Christ. In parishes, there is always a tendency
to form isolating groups and cliques. That is human nature. But our super nature, life in Christ, always calls us to look for ways
to reach out and love in and through the things that typically divide us. In our ministries, school and programs, parishioners
cross lines and help. The guiding principle is to help, love and serve. I've never seen it as strong as I do here. Thank you for
your prophetic witness.
Tonight is Paul George for the youth; last week we opened the Bridge coffee house and had Susan Tassone come and talk.
Peace, Msgr.

BAPTISMS
Please welcome into our Catholic Community the following
children who received the Sacrament of Baptism:
Alana Marie Reese Lucas Walker Reese
WITH SYMPATHY
Please pray for the sick and homebound of our parish and for
the repose of the souls in Heaven of:
Carole Bergman, wife of Ron
Dorothy Tillotson, mother of Yolanda Holmes
Margaret Hayenga, mother of Tom
Mary’s Corner
Veteran’s Day is coming up. Let us
pray to Our Lady and ask her to protect our men and women in uniform.
Let us ask her to protect the veterans
who have served our country and let us ask her
to welcome those veterans whom Our Lord has
called home.
Pantry Note: The winter weather is coming soon. I received a notice of the area
"warming" centers for this year. It is rather sad that they are needed and
used. Furnaces break, utilities get shut
off, not a day goes by that I don't meet
someone with electric or gas shut off. These are tough
times. As the nightfall comes more quickly, it becomes
harder for some to cope. A woman called this week
seeking help. She was crying. She has a brain tumor
and she finds it hard to remember things and keeping
track of things. She asked me to call her sister and explain LIHEAP. As I visited with her sister, I learned
more of her plight. Her emotional center of her brain is
being effected by the tumor and so every thing has a
catastrophic edge to it. I explained to her sister what I
needed to help her apply for LIHEAP and we agreed to
meet next week. Some people have asked me if this
work is really necessary. If this woman with the brain
tumor were the only one we helped this week, I'd say of
course. The reality is that she is just one of many.
~Teresa Marotta

Understanding Our Faith Series: Faith Questions, Catholic Answers
During November, we are called in a special way to remember and pray for our deceased loved ones who have gone
before us in light of the solemnity of All Saints and the Commemoration of All Souls. On Tuesdays, November 11th,
18th and 25th, we will have some sessions on what our Church believes about the afterlife. Join us at St. Bridget
Church at 7:00 PM.
Tuesday, November 11th—The Four Last Things: Heaven, Hell, Judgment and Purgatory—Msgr. Daniel Deutsch
Many people have questions about the afterlife. What will we be judged on when we come before the judgment seat of
God? What will heaven and hell be like? What will we do for all eternity? What age will we be in heaven? What will we
look like? Will we recognize our loved ones? Where does the Catholic belief in Purgatory come from and how long does
one remain in Purgatory? Why do we pray for the dead? If God is all-loving, why would he allow anyone to go to hell?
Can a person who commits suicide be saved? What does the church teach about reincarnation? What does the church teach
about cremation and proper burial?
Tuesday, November 18th—Mary and the Saints—-Father Keith Romke
All of us are on a journey that has a common goal: to dwell in heaven with our Lord for all eternity! We can learn a whole
lot by looking at the examples of those who have already completed the journey before us! In this talk, we will take a look
at the journeys of Mary and the Saints, so that we can learn how to join them!
Tuesday, November 25th—Angels and Demons—Father Christopher DiTomo
Just because we cannot see them, doesn't mean they are not real. Join Fr.
DiTomo for this lively discussion as he answers such questions as:
-How many different kind of angels are there? What are the different choirs of
angels?
-What is a guardian angel? How do I relate to my guardian angel?
-What is a demon?
-Is the devil a real spiritual being, or just a literary image?
-Does the Church still do exorcisms?
-What is "spiritual warfare"? How can demons harm us?
Evangelize through God Is! A one day journey closer to God.
The God Is! Day of Renewal is a lived experience; a one day journey
that brings people into a (closer) personal relationship with God. The
participants hear the Good News of Salvation proclaimed succinctly
and personally by their peers in a way that invites them to accept the
truth and be transformed by it. The participants are also led through a
renewal of the Sacraments in order to promote a better understanding
of and love for them, especially Reconciliation and the Mass.
St. Bridget Church will be putting on this retreat for parents of children
preparing to receive Reconciliation, Holy Communion and Confirmation.
It will be open to the parish as well. The date for this event is Saturday,
February 21st, 2015 beginning at 8:30am and closing with Saturday
evening Mass.
We are in need of:
2 or 3 for hospitality
4 or 5 to give talks and witnesses
If you are interested in helping evangelize our parish this winter, please
contact Olivia O’Connor at 633-6311.

Vocations Corner: The Advice
of a Mother
Ever since I was a little kid, I
have loved attempting to do
things on my own! From time
to time this has turned out well, on some
other occasions it has allowed me to get by,
but more often than not it has gotten me
into all kinds of trouble. The funny thing is
though, that no matter how many times this
strategy has yielded poor results, I just keep
on going back to it again and again. Usually, there is one thing that can finally get me
to snap out of this cycle and to do what is
actually best for me: listening to the advice
of my Mother!
This same reality is even more true when it
comes to living out our spiritual lives. I can
try on my own to figure things out, but
when it’s all said and done, the goodness
of God’s plan is just way too big for my
finite and limited mind to fully understand
or grasp. But this doesn’t mean that any of
us are without hope, because we all have a
Mother that we can turn to in the midst of
our struggles. Mary longs to aid us through
her intercession and by her example. If we
want a guaranteed way to discover God’s
will for us, all we need to do is to ask her
intercession and to pray according to her
example: “Be it done unto me according to
thy Word” and “do whatever He tells
you!”~Fr. Keith Romke

A reality of war is the MIA
(missing in action), those who
did not return home. In the war
on the pre-born, 57,000,000 human beings are missing in action
as well. They, too, did not return
home. Those soldiers who did not return from war,
and those pre-born who died are all a great loss to
our nation and weaken us as a country.
