2 Page 2 With Burning Hearts We Proclaim the Good News October Twenty-seventh Sunday in Ordinary Time A dog is a man s best friend. Yes, well, maybe not. While we get quite attached to our pets and other animal friends, it is other persons who are our real friends. That is why a man leaves his father and mother and clings to his wife, and the two of them become one flesh. The best marriages, according to studies, are ones in which the husband and wife view each other as equals and share equally in the running of the home and the family. Tasks and decisions are shared, and there is agreement on the raising of children and they always have each other s back when the little ones like to push their buttons. If Daddy says no ask Mommy. Oh no! You don t get away with that trick, little one! Couples who have been married many years, have seen their children grow up and have seen their grandchildren and even great-grandchildren, are often seen happily conversing and holding hands in their nursing homes or other residences. It s that lifelong respect for the other that keeps a marriage happy, despite the occasional disagreement. Respect is key. If this respect is missing, especially from the beginning, perhaps a true marriage did not exist. This is a mystery we deal with in sincere prayer. ALL HAVE ONE ORIGIN We hear in the Letter to the Hebrews that Christ is made one with us in his suffering He for a little while was made lower than the angels, that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone. He who consecrates and those who are being consecrated all have one origin. Therefore, he is not ashamed to call them brothers [and sisters]. We are all made in the image of God, and therefore are one in Christ. We sometimes forget that Christ is our brother as well as our Lord. The love he has for us is faithful and never ending. For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife. For God made them male and female, equal in love and respect for one another. LET THE CHILDREN COME TO ME Jesus love extends not only to adults. It extends not only to those in loving and respectful marriages, but extends to all people, especially children big and little. The disciples tried to prevent parents from bringing their children to Jesus for a blessing. Jesus rebuked the disciples and said, Let the children come to me... for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. His teachings always emphasized humility and trust, and he held up these children as the best examples. Whoever does not accept the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it. Children are by nature curious and humble; they know that they are small and depend on their parents for everything. Likewise, we must be humble and recognize that we are small before God and depend on God for everything in our lives that is good. To have this attitude is to look for the kingdom of God and to be ready to enter it. And, like the children, we will be touched and blessed by Jesus and welcomed into his arms.

4 Page 4 With Burning Hearts We Proclaim the Good News October 7, 2018 Let Us Love Together In Mission is an important program that keeps many of the needy parishes and schools in the Archdiocese open to serve their communities and fulfill the important mission of the Church. As a parish, we must meet our commitment to the program by the end of this year - and your support is vital to our success. We thank those who have already pledged or donated, however, while we are near our goal, we are still behind in pledges and need the help of all our parish families. So if your family has not yet made a pledge, please consider what you can give and make a pledge or donation today - whatever amount you can. Pledge envelopes are available in the church pews or narthex and Parish Office. Please help Together In Mission keep the hope of Christ alive in all the parishes in our Archdiocese. Note: Donations to Together In Mission are dedicated solely to help needy parishes and not used for any other purpose, except that any donations in excess of our goal will be returned to our parish for local needs and programs. Jog-a-thon is on Thursday, October 11. NO SCHOOL on Friday, October 12 due to WASC In-service. Classes resume on Monday, October 15. The school, mindful of its mission to be a witness to the love of Christ for all, admits students regardless of race, color or national and/or ethnic origin to all rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. The school does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, disability, sex or national and/or ethnic origin in the administration of educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs, although certain athletic leagues and other programs may limit participation and some archdiocesan schools operate as single sex schools. While the school does not discriminate against students with special needs, a full range of services may not always be available to them. Decisions concerning the admission and continued enrollment of a student in the school are based upon the student s emotional, academic and physical abilities and the resources available to the school in meeting the student s needs. 1st Year Confirmation October 14th, 4:00pm 2nd Year Confirmation October 21st, 4:00pm For more information call Edgar Contreras at and ask for ext. 121.

9 Page 9 With Burning Hearts We Proclaim the Good News October 7, 2018 Evangelization The Mission of Religious That consecrated religious men and women may bestir themselves, and be present among the poor, the marginalized, and those who have no voice Mutual Respect is Key for Friendships Your child will make many friends throughout his lifetime. As children grow, their interests change and develop, and they meet many new people along the way. But as children make new friends, mutual respect should be the guiding principle of these relationships. Parents, talk to your children about how they should feel in a friendship true friends care about each other and respect each other s thoughts and feelings and personal boundaries. If your child isn t receiving respect from her friends, she is learning to accept less than she deserves in a relationship. And if she is the one who doesn t give respect to her friends, she is learning emotional power. For more information on teaching your children about true friendships, jvienna@la-archdiocese.org.
