It's that time of year again! Catholic Charities will be displaying their Angel Tree in the narthex of our
church the weekend of November 15-16. We are once again asking our generous parishioners to take an
angel (especially the ones that are for the older children from the same families) and bring the item(s) back
to the church office or to the church during mass times by no later than December 10th. Please place
unwrapped gifts in a black plastic bag and staple the angel to the bag. We have always taken care of those
children in our parish and community and know we will once again bring joy to God's littlest ones!

COME TO THE FEAST
“On this mountain, the Lord of hosts / will provide
for all peoples / a feast of rich food and choice
wines” (Isaiah 25:6). That’s what Isaiah tells us today.
God is putting together a huge party for “all peoples,” to
“wipe away / the tears from every face” (Isaiah 25:8).
And what does Jesus tell us? The reign of God, he
says, “may be likened to a king who gave a wedding feast
for his son” (Matthew 22:2). When the guests didn’t
come, the king had his servants go out “into the main
roads and invite to the feast whomever you
find” (Matthew 22:9). We are called to deliver that invitation.
One of the themes woven into today’s liturgy is that
of divine generosity. Asleep to reality, people often think
they have “earned” what they have. In our better moments, though, we know that all our gifts—even the spiritual gifts—come through God’s generosity. Our vocation
is to invite people, to remind them the tickets aren’t for
sale. We can only show up and say thank you.

VENGAN A LA FIESTA
“El Señor de los Ejércitos preparará para todos los
pueblos en este cerro, una comida con jugosos asados y
buenos vinos” (Isaías 25:6). Esto es lo que Isaías nos
dice hoy. Dios está organizando una inmensa fiesta
para “todos los pueblos”, para “enjugar las lágrimas de
todos los rostros”.
¿Y qué es lo que Jesús nos dice? “El reino de Dios”, él
dice, es como “lo que le sucedió a un rey que celebró
las bodas de su hijo” (Mateo 22:2). Cuando los invitados no acudieron, el rey mandó a sus sirvientes a que
fueran “a las esquinas de las calles y conviden a la boda a todos los que encuentren” (Mateo 22:9). Nosotros
somos llamados a distribuir esta invitación.
Uno de los temas entrelazado con la liturgia de hoy
es el referente a la generosidad divina. Ausente de la
realidad, la gente a menudo asume que ha “ganado” lo
que tiene. En nuestros mejores momentos, sin embargo, somos conscientes de que todos nuestros dones,
incluyendo los espirituales, provienen de la generosidad de Dios. Nuestra misión es invitar a la gente, recordarles que las entradas no están a la venta. Lo único
que podemos hacer es acudir y dar las gracias.

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Each October we celebrate “Respect Life Month,” a time when we reflect more deeply upon the sanctity of
life, from conception to natural death. We pray for the weak and vulnerable, the unborn and the elderly, for
the innocent in the womb, as well as for the most guilty. We pray for a spirit of mercy and not vengeance, for
an overturning of the death penalty as we pray also for the victims’ families of violent crime, for Christ’s
peace through His mercy and love to comfort them. We pray for Christians and minorities throughout the
world who suffer from war and persecution. We pray that Amendment One and other legislative measures
that affirm a “yes to life” will be sustained with your vote for life. In the darkening clouds of violence, war,
and persecution, pray for Christ’s peace to reign in mercy and love.—Bishop S ka
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
One of the great privileges of living in a democracy is the right of its citizens to vote. Although the Catholic
Church will never identify itself with any political community or system, we can and must speak up in support
of moral issues. One such issue that we as Catholics will have an opportunity to vote on November 4th is
Amendment One. This amendment is neither a Republican nor Democrat issue, but a moral and life issue of
greatest magnitude. A yes vote on Amendment One, a prolife amendment, would neutralize the extreme
interpretation taken by the Tennessee State Supreme Court in 2000 in which they declared that our State
Constitution guarantees the right to an abortion. Passage of this Amendment would restore back to the voter
the “life” decisions that were taken from them by the state court decision. For this reason, I and my brother
Bishops in Nashville and Memphis wholeheartedly ask for your support for “life” by voting for “Yes on One”
this November 4th .—Bishop S ka
October is Right to Life Month
Vote Yes on 1 to open the door for informed consent for women and girls
considering abortion, inspection or regulation of abortion facilities, and
hospitalization requirement for later term abortions.
YES on 1
