Thirty-Third Sunday November 16, 2014 SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS A LETTER FROM OUR BISHOP WELCOME to all who gather in our Cathedral Church for the Thirty-Third Sunday of Ordinary Time. Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ: The Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) has come to the aid of communities nationwide for over 40 years in an effort to eradicate poverty. During World Youth Day, July 25, 2013, Pope Francis told us to “never tire of working for a more just world, marked by greater solidarity.” CCHD puts these words into action by funding housing, education, the development of job opportunities and lifting up and helping solve the needs of poor and low-income communities all across the nation. WEEK OF PRAYER: We ask each member of our Cathedral parish to pray for the members of one of the parishes or missions in our diocese this week. As a Cathedral Church, all our parishes are linked to us and we wish to deepen the spiritual bond with them. Therefore, we will pray this week for St. Andrew, Tipton. CONGRATULATIONS to Maximilian Reeves, son of John and Natalie Reeves who was baptized in the Cathedral last week! Projects supported by CCHD work to build healthy, sustainable futures for communities. Ten years ago, Boston’s Haley House began offering bakery training at the request of a few regular guests at the soup kitchen. Experiencing a tremendous demand, Haley House created a six-month course that includes customer relations and basic business principles. Haley House currently has 70 trainees who have completed the program and are now employed in the Boston area. FROM DEATH TO NEW LIFE-The Cathedral Parish Family extends its sympathy and prayers to the family of Curt Lepper, nephew of Jacob Lepper. May he have eternal rest in his heavenly home and may the Lord give comfort to his loved ones who mourn their loss. ADOPT-A-FAMILY PROGRAM The Cathedral's ‘Adopt-A-Family’ Christmas program for needy families is drawing near. We are in need of your help. There will be gift tags and cash donation envelopes on the Christmas tree in the front entrance of the Cathedral the weekend of November 22/23. You can make Christmas merrier for families in need by taking a tag (s) to purchase gifts, or contribute a cash donation to help purchase food and gifts. All gifts should be returned to the Cathedral by December 7. If you have any questions, contact Ann Bax at 636-5895 or [email protected]; or Claudia Kehoe at 634-4151 or [email protected]. Thank you for your generosity! This Collection is the primary source of funding for CCHD’s anti-poverty grants and education programs. Collection funds offer new hope each year to those living in poverty throughout the United States. And remember, 25 percent of the Collection’s proceeds stays here in our Diocese to fight poverty in our communities and defend the dignity of our neighbors. Help us defend human dignity and show Christ’s charity to those in need. With the 25 percent of the Collection we keep in our Diocese, we funded three important local projects. The Central Missouri Foster Care & Adoptive Association (CMFCAA) received funding for its Adoptive Parent Network (APN) program and for its Tuesday Night Training program. CMFCAA is the only organization in central Missouri that provides post-adoption services to families. The Adoptive Parent Network program provides professional trainers in the areas of child trauma, grief, attachment, bonding, adoptive family respite services, mental health, insurance coverage, and renegotiating adoption contacts. The Tuesday Night Training program provides monthly professional parent training for foster care and families that have adopted through the foster care system, as well as those resource providers who care for abused and neglected children. These programs serve some of the poorest and most vulnerable children in our state. CHRISTMAS BAZAAR RESULTS CONGRATULATIONS to Millie Schell, winner of the $5,000 Grand Prize and to Harry & Helen Cook, winner of the $500 Second Prize in the Cathedral Christmas Bazaar Raffle. The sponsors of the Grand Raffle extend their sincere thanks for your tremendous response in purchasing $16,150.00 in tickets! Thank you to all who attended and worked at this year’s bazaar. 1564 Adult and 132 Child Dinners were served! More details will follow! MILITARY SERVICES COLLECTION The other important work of local CCHD in our Diocese is the Rural Community Workers’ Alliance (RCWA) based in Milan, Missouri. The RCWA works with the immigrant and lowwage worker community in northern Missouri. The program seeks to secure improved community health systems and services, and to assure workplace safety for immigrant and refugee food sector workers and their families. Thank you to everyone who participated in the Collection for the Archdiocese for the Military Services. Your prayers and support are truly a blessing. As Catholics in a worldwide faith community, we treasure our belief that we may be continually transformed by participation in the sacraments. The Archbishop, clergy and staff of the Archdiocese thank everyone for sharing the mission through your prayerful and generous support.
