1 St. Agnes Catholic Community 1025 Masonic Ave. San Francisco, CA Inclusive Diverse Jesuit November 26 & 27, 2016 Dear Friends, Happy Thanksgiving Weekend! Gratitude is such a wonderful quality for one to possess. It makes us an open loving, generous person. It s something we should all work towards. Ignatius of Loyola in his famous Contemplation for Obtaining Love asks us to reflect on the many gifts in our life, those of Nature, Personal and of Grace. And to also realize that the giver is also in the gift. Liturgy Schedule Sunday: 8:30am Saturday Vigil: 4:00pm 10:30am Weekdays: 8:30am 6:00pm Holy Days: 8:30am & 5:30pm Mission Statement We the people of Saint Agnes are: an inclusive urban community, rich in diversity of age, ethnicity, gender, orientation, culture, talent, & treasure; a faith community, enlivened and empowered through Baptism to celebrate and proclaim the presence of Christ among us. We declare to one and all that we commit ourselves to: grow spiritually as disciples of Christ to become men and women for others build community through hospitality, ecumenism and social & cultural events understand cultural differences and accept them as sources of enrichment give loving service & outreach to those in need promote social justice issues in our neighborhood and in the larger community of city, nation, and world. When you give a loved one a gift your love is in the gift as is your creativity in choosing that particular gift. God s beauty and power are in each of the gifts. Yet, God does not only give us gifts, and reside in the gifts, but God labors in the gifts. God continues to keep them in existence. God works in our developing relationships, in our struggles and achievements. Yes, God surrounds us with love in the continual outpouring of gifts, like rays from the sun or streams from river. How should we respond to God as the gift giver: Take, Lord and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding and my entire will, all that I have and possess. You have given all to me. To you Lord, I return it. All is yours. Give me only your love and your grace. This is sufficient for me. May your love dwell in the gift of yourself that you give others. We pledge ourselves to be a light in the darkness through the love that we share in the name of Christ and through the power and guidance of the Holy Spirit.

5 Apostles Creed I believe in God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, Our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; And ascended into heaven, And is seated at the right hand of God, the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church; the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. Stewardship Prayer Lord and source of all gifts, I rejoice in the fullness of your generosity. I thank you for those whose lives are visible signs of your love and blessing to others. Give me the courage to do the same. Make me a good steward of all I have received generously sharing my time, abilities and material resources to build up your kingdom of love and justice. We ask this through Jesus Christ, in whom we begin and end all things. Amen. Prayer of St. Francis (Prayer for Peace) Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved, as to love; for it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life. Amen
