Her feast day is on Nov. 22, and she is the patron saint of one of the parishes in our region. Each parish in our region has a love for the music in the Mass. The music directors from our regional parishes have a great love for the liturgy and put a lot of time into planning beautiful Mass settings. It is said that as the musicians played at St. Cecilia s wedding, she sang in her heart to the Lord. I think we can say the same about each of our choir members. It is so important that the music helps support the Gospel message. It makes such a difference when you see the parishioners singing or listening attentively to live the Gospel more fully through the music that is played. Amen? Amen! Thanks to all who supported the Annual Turkey Dinner at St. Margaret-St. John. It was a great success. We thank all the workers who baked turkeys, peeled potatoes, baked desserts, and worked the day of the dinner. Many of you have given your time and talent for many years and we thank you! National Night of Prayer for Life This year for the first time, our Eastside Region will join together with parishes and nations around the world to celebrate the National Night of Prayer for Life. This very special night will take place from 9 PM on Dec. 8 until 1 AM on Dec. 9. at St. Cecilia Church. Our Prayer for Life prayer service will consist of: exposition and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, the Rosary, the prayer to St. Michael the Archangel and silent prayer, music and hymns. This wondrous night unites the Feast of the Immaculate Conception with the Feast of St. Juan Diego. It was on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception in 1531 (at that time celebrated on Dec. 9), that Our Lady of Guadalupe, patroness of the Americas and the Unborn, first appeared to St. Juan Diego. The Fatima message continues to be most relevant today. Churches and nations around the world are called this night, to join together and to pray to our Blessed Mother for her protection of life and families and that she renews the Church and establishes peace. Please join us for an hour or all of this important night. the hours that you will be able to be present between 9 PM and 1 AM to bswartz@fuse.net. We look forward to celebrating this blessed feast with you.

4 PASTOR S R AMBLINGS 4 ALL SAINTS MASS: We had good turnouts for our annual All Saints parades at St. Anthony and St. Cecilia. I did the Mass at St. Anthony, and Fr. Jacob had the Mass at St. Cecilia (photo 1). It was his first time to meet with the little saints, Fr. Jacob did a nice job asking the children about what saints they were dressed up as (photo 2), and after Mass, they all got a special cookie for participating. I got to talk to the little saints at St. Anthony, who are part of our PREP class. We also had an All Saints School Mass where the children dressed up (photo 3). 1 ALL SOULS MASS: At both St. Margaret-St. John and St. Cecilia, we had our annual All Souls Masses. Thank you to all of the people who helped put these beautiful liturgies together. St. Cecilia had a candlelight Mass that evening celebrated by Monsignor Lane and Fr. Jacob (photo 4). A big thankyou to Barb Browasky and her team for putting together the lovely reception after Mass. I also want to thank Helen Davis and the Bereavement Committees from St. Margaret-St. John and St. Anthony Parishes. 1 HALLOWEEN PARADE: The schoolchildren dressed up in their Halloween costumes and had their annual parade. I dressed up as Darth Vader and joined them in the gym (photo 5). The kids really went all out on their costumes (photos 6-7) this year!

5 NEW S & NOTES 5 Memorare Society of St. Cecilia The Memorare Society was established to create a reserve fund that is used for future restoration projects and major maintenance needs. The society is funded through bequests and special gifts to St. Cecilia. During November, we especially remember those who continued their giving to the parish through a bequest. We encourage you to remember St. Cecilia Parish by including it in your estate plan and will. Contact Bob Kellison at , ext. 208, or bkellison@ stceciliacincinnati.org for more information. Annual Thanksgiving Collection The St. Margaret-St. John Conference of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul will be held on the following three weekends: Nov , Nov , and Dec. 1 & 2. Donations from this collection will be used throughout the year to help our neighbors in need. Marriage Annulments The Catholic Church dedicates much time and effort to prepare couples for marriage. However, despite the couples best efforts, unfortunately a marriage union sometimes fails to reach fulfillment for both parties and may end in a civil divorce. The Catholic Church has mechanisms and processes in place to assist people in these situations, especially if they anticipate another marriage. If you find yourself in this circumstance, we would like to help. To learn more about how to get assistance, please contact Joe Fondacaro in our pastoral region at , ext. 222, or at jfondacaro@eastsideregion.org. All inquiries are kept in strict confidence.

Ephesians 6:16 WALKING THE CAMINO DE SANTIAGO A 9-DAY YOUNG ADULT PILGRIMAGE JUNE 6-14, 2019 FOR MORE INF ORMATION AN D TO REGISTER, VISIT STCECILIA CINCINNATI.ORG. The Road to Canonization Venerable Henriette DeLille was born in 1812 in New Orleans, Louisiana, as a free woman of color. At 24 years of age, Henriette experienced a religious conversion, and proclaimed: I believe in God. I hope in God. I love. I want to live and die for God. Henriette eventually founded the Society of the Holy Family, responding to the need for treatment of the enslaved, elderly and sick, and care and education for the poor. Henriette received tribute for her life s work in these words from her obituary,...(henriette) devoted herself untiringly for many years, without reserve, to the religious instruction of the people of New Orleans, principally of slaves.... The last line of her obituary reads,...for the love of Jesus Christ she had become the humble and devout servant of the slaves. Archbishop Philip M. Hannan began the canonization process for Henriette DeLille in A special commission in Rome gave approval in 1988 after a review process. In 2004 a biography of her life, written by Fr. Cyprian Davis, OSB, was published. The canonization process is comprised of four phases: Servant of God, Venerable, Blessed and Saint. As of this time, an alleged miracle attributed to Henriette is being tried in a Catholic Tribunal, and the decree of judicial validity was issued in the investigation of her life, virtues, and reputation of sanctity. Henriette was bestowed with the title of Venerable by Pope Benedict XVI in Becoming Catholic Curious about the Church? Want to learn more? Call us today at , ext. 215.

7 THE LAST PAGE 7 St. Cecilia Thanksgiving Day Though many people believe that Thanksgiving has been celebrated since the time of the pilgrims as a day of thanks for the harvest season, in fact it wasn t until 1863 that President Abraham Lincoln instituted this holiday in order for Americans to give thanks to God and celebrate our unity after The Civil War. Given that, no other American holiday so closely resembles the profound symbolism and deep meaning of our Sacrament of the Eucharist than Thanksgiving. Therefore, we will celebrate Thanksgiving as a day for renewed American unity and profound thanks to God for our great and abundant gifts on Thursday, Nov. 22, at the 9 AM Mass. We encourage you to share your personal abundance by bringing canned and boxed foodstuffs and/ or monetary donations and place them in front of the altar at the Offertory. These will then be donated to St. Vincent de Paul and to the Oakley Food Pantry. Our annual Thanksgiving Day dinner will be held from noon until 2 PM on Thursday, Nov. 22, in the school cafeteria. The dinner is free of charge and open to all ages. We would love to see you there. Transportation to the dinner and meal delivery are available by calling Margie at All requests for meal deliveries must be made by 5 PM on Monday, Nov. 19. One of our greatest needs each year is for individuals to donate and roast a turkey. We use nearly 70 each year. If you can help in this manner, please call Dee at (513) Of course, monetary donations are gratefully accepted and can be dropped in the collection basket or mailed to the rectory. For any of the numerous volunteer opportunities available, please call Dan at (513) We will need people to carve turkeys (especially Wednesday evening prior), serve, wash dishes, prepare carry-out and delivery meals, engage in hospitality, and clean-up. In addition, we always have a great need for drivers to deliver meals. Text your offertory gift to Giving has never been this easy.
