settled accounts with them. The
one who had received five talents
came forward bringing the

Pope Francis
Speaks to Our Hearts
Our special gifts and talents
Everyone has a special gift or talent to offer the whole
church, just make sure it is used to serve everyone and
not to puff up one’s own pride or to create division,
Pope Francis said. It is a gift that God has given to
someone not because he or she is a better person than
someone else or because she or he deserves it. God
gives gifts freely, out of love, so that they can be “put at
the service of the whole community for the good of all
people”.

Supporting Right to Life Programs
Your support of the Bishop deGoesbriand
Appeal for Human Development makes a real
difference in the daily lives of Vermonters. In
2013, thanks to your generosity, Vermont
Catholic Charities awarded grants to agencies
that assist with pre and post-natal care. Good
Beginnings of Central Vermont commented, "The critical
support of the Bishop deGoesbriand Appeal for Human
Advancement allows us to serve as the missing link in
postpartum care for families; providing early interventions
and tools for stability so that infants have every chance to
thrive and succeed in loving homes" Please donate to the
second collection the weekend of November 22-23. 100%
of the collection stays in Vermont.

church has never looked so beautiful.
INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN CATHOLIC
EVANGELIST RICHARD BINGOLD
A HEALING SERVICE
Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish
Mon., Nov. 17, 2014, 18 Lincoln Avenue, Rutland, Vt.
At 7:00 P.M.
We are happy to have Richard Bingold, Catholic Lay
Evangelist, at Immaculate Heart of Mary to testify and pray
over all who attend. He speaks openly on his own life of
perdition and how God saved him at the moment of death
from “The brink of hell…” God changed his heart of stone
to a heart of flesh. Richard travels the world with the
permission of a Cardinal and several American Bishops to
speak and to pray over the faithful. He prays for those in
need of spiritual and physical healings. His apostolate has
been graced with an extraordinary number of healings of
mind and body. He declares, “God is the healer from whom
all graces flow; focus on the Giver, and the gift.”
He answered the call of God’s servant, Pope John Paul II, to
“put out into the deep to save souls.” He will pray over all
individually with the “Miraculous Pilgrim Rosary. The The
service starts at 7:00 P.M. with a ½ hour of Adoration, then
Richard’s testimony, followed by the healing service. Priests
will be available to hear confessions.
Father Daniel, Administrator
