Happy 32nd Sunday of Ordinary Time! This Sunday’s gospel is rooted in the wedding traditions of Jesus’s time. The 10 virgins (bride maids) accompanied and assist the bride before the wedding. The groom and best man (friend of the bridegroom) prepared the wedding feast plus new home for the new couple. After the home and wedding feast were ready, the friend of the bridegroom and groom would go get the wedding party at an unknown hour. I wil expand more in the homily, but Jesus is reminding us that we always need to be vigilant and ready for His call in our lives. On Nov. 8, we will have our last talk of the Sacred Art Series. We pray that you have enjoyed this series and grown in appreciation of Sacred Art plus devotion to our Lord Jesus and His Saints. Reminder, our Pre-Advent Mission is coming on Nov. 15-16. Fr. Jayke and I wil be looking at Nativity Artwork and gleaning lessons from the artwork for Advent. Next weekend, Altar and Rosay wil be having the annual baked goods and frozen soup sale.

Happy All Saints Day! What a great joy that All Saints Day falls on Sunday this year. As I have said many times, the goal of the Christian life is friendship with Jesus Christ in the Church. The saints show us what friendship with Jesus looks practically. Today we rejoice and celebrate the saints’ witness to Jesus. Our 1st session of the Sacred Art Series went very well and had a nice turn out. Everyone is welcome to attend Nov 1 and 8. Fr. Jayke will talk on Nov. 1 about the painter Rembrandt. Thanks to all the men who came out for Cigar Night. It was a great night of fellowship that we will do again sometime. We also have Mass of Remembrance coming on Nov. 7 at 4:30pm. At this Mass, our beloved parishioners who passed away this past year will be remembered and prayed for. We will start Mass with a special procession with 1 family member representative carrying a candle forward to honor their beloved family member. The procession will take roughly 15 minutes.
