2 2 Jubilee Year of Mercy Amos castigates religious people who, comfortably complacent (6:1, 5), ignore the unfolding collapse of culture, nation, religion (6:6). In Jesus parable, such complacency becomes the rich man s undoing. He neither hurt nor harmed Lazarus, neither denied him leftovers nor ordered him removed. That is Jesus devastating point. The rich man did nothing wrong to Lazarus; he just did nothing at all good for him. Only in death, separated by a great chasm (Luke 16:26), could the rich man finally see Lazarus, whom he had failed to see in life, right before his eyes. Like the rich man s five brothers still in my father s house (16:27 28), we who are alive in the Church still have time to see that same Someone, Jesus, lying neglected right at our door and time to do something. Who, specifically, concretely, practically, is Lazarus in my life? What can I do for that Jesus-in-the-flesh during this Jubilee Year of Mercy? -Fr. Peter Scagnelli, JS Paluch Co Año Jubilar de la Misericordia Amos castiga a personas religiosas confiadas (6:1, 5) que ignoran la caída de la cultura, de la nación, de la religión (6:6). En la parábola de Jesús esa confianza es la perdición del hombre rico. Él no lastima o perjudica a Lázaro, tampoco le niega las sobras ni pide que lo quiten de la entrada de su casa. Y ese es el punto principal que Jesús menciona. El hombre rico no hizo ningún mal a Lázaro, pero tampoco hizo algo bueno por Lázaro. Solo después de la muerte, separados por un abismo inmenso (Lucas 16:26), pudo el hombre rico ver a Lázaro, a quien no se atrevió a verlo mientras vivió, justo ante sus ojos. Así como los cinco hermanos que quedaban en la casa del hombre rico (16:27 28), nosotros los que vivimos en la Iglesia todavía tenemos tiempo para ver a ese alguien, a Jesús que está a la entrada de nuestra puerta y que es tiempo para hacer algo. Quién, practica, concreta y específicamente es Lázaro en mi vida? Qué puedo hacer por ese Jesús de carne y hueso durante este Año Jubilar de la Misericordia? -Fray Peter Scagnelli, JS Paluch Co eventos en la Diócesis de Lexington MARY QUEEN FALL FESTIVAL - 1 de Octubre PEREGRINACIONES en al Año de la Misericordia 55 Crawford Lane, Mount Vernon, KY Sábado, 8 de Octubre, :00 AM - 2:00 PM Our Lady of Mount Vernon in Mount Vernon Tour e Historia de la Parroquia, Confesiones, Celebración de la Eucaristía por la Sanación de Las Familias con el Obispo John Stowe y Adoración Eucaristía DISCIPULOS MISIONEROS : Fechas en el Catholic Center : 1310 West Main Street, Lexington Sábados: 15 de Octubre 9:30 am Misa 19 de Noviembre (no se puede el 12) 9:30 Misa Sunday Support September 15 - September 21, 2016 GENERAL OPERATING FUND: Beginning Bank Balance: $2, Deposits - Offertory Collection: 4, Deposits - 2nd Collection: Ordained & Lay Checks Written: 7, Ending Bank Balance: $ BUILDING FUND: Beginning Bank Balance: $8, Deposits Made To Building Fund: 2, Mortgage Payment Made: 7, Ending Bank Balance: $3, Outstanding Loan Balance as of September 21, 2016: $220,

Brian Wentz Darlene Holt Melanie White Warren Jackson ALL SOULS DAY MEMORIAL CANDLES It is that time again to order Candles to remember our beloved dead. The cost is $10 per globe with insert. The DEADLINE for ordering is October 3. Sign ups are in the Foyer. Please indicate your name and the In Memory Of name. Last year s globes may be reused. Inserts for those will be made available in October at a cost of $3.00 each. The candles will be used in the 4:30 PM Vigil Mass on October 31 and the 6:30 PM Mass on November 1. You may pick up your candle/s after Mass on November 5 or 6. Christmas Bazaar November 18 & 19 We are asking everyone in the parish to start thinking about how they can contribute to make this a successful bazaar. This year, we are asking each of you to craft an item, make some ornaments, and/or put together a theme basket. We would like for these things to be made at home individually, as a family, or get together in small groups. Then bring in your donations starting October 20 th. There will be forms in the foyer for you to sign up for baskets. We will be happy to offer theme ideas. Also, we will be available to assist you if you gather your items and need help putting the basket together. We are in need of handmade ornaments, wreaths, and donations for both the raffle and silent auction. We will also be doing a children s table where items will be available for children to purchase gifts for their parents and siblings. Contributions for this table would be greatly appreciated. Contacts: Warren Jackson Pat Isaman (Not available Sept. 1-Oct. 10) Darlene Holt We will also need volunteers for the Bazaar itself as well as workers for the Luncheon. At our last meeting we decided to read How's Your Faith: An Unlikely Spiritual Journey by David Gregory, the former NBC reporter and moderator of Meet the Press. This book is "a thoughtful, introspective, and moving account of Gregory's life, family, and beliefs, including his struggles with his other's alcoholism, with interfaith marriage, with anger (over losing his job at NBC), with God." (The Washington Post) When he was a reporter at the White House, President George W. Bush asked him, "Gregory, how's your faith?" In writing this book David Gregory realized that perhaps his story will inspire others to examine their lives and seek answers to that same question. We will divide the reading into three sections and meet on Monday, October 3, 10, and 17 for discussion. The cost will be approximately $10.00 each. I will check around to see if I can find it any cheaper. If you would like to be added to the list or if you would like to host one of the meetings, please contact Mickie Noel at (859) or (859)
