Joseph Zaleski, Deacon, John Farrell TWENTY-NINTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME ~ OCTOBER 21, 2018 Celebrate World Mission Sunday World Mission Sunday is for Catholics worldwide to recommit themselves to the Church s missionary activity through prayer and sacrifice. World Mission Sunday the main way to collect funds for the Propagation of the Faith. As described by Pope John Paul II, World Mission Sunday is an important day in the life of the Church because it teaches how to give: as an offering made to God, in the Eucharistic celebration and for all the missions of the world (see Redemptoris Missio 81). Your ongoing support is vital to the missionaries in dioceses around the globe. Your generosity makes it possible for local priests, religious, and catechists to reach out to communities, families, and children in desperate need, bringing the light of Christ to the darkest of circumstances!

Questions call Colleen The Archdiocese of Philadelphia will continue to enforce its zero-tolerance policy for clergy, lay employees, and volunteers who engage in the abuse of children or other misconduct with minors. We take immediate action when an allegation of misconduct is made. We report all alleged criminal activity to law enforcement and we cooperate with them fully. Research and experience have shown that sexual abuse plagues every corner of society from sports and entertainment industries, public institutions and the political arena. We know that prevention of abuse comes from training and sustained vigilance, and the prevention of abuse along with support for survivors remains a constant priority for our Church and Archdiocese. If God is all-good and all-powerful, then why is there evil? This is perhaps the most vexing challenge that non-believers pose to Christians. Our world of violence, greed, and suffering seems incompatible with the God of the Gospel. How can we answer the challenge? In The Problem of Evil, Jimmy Akin tackles this most difficult of apologetics questions. He builds a biblical and philosophical case for understanding how God s perfections are not disproved by the existence of evil, but in fact allow for a world in which pain and sin may be mysteriously ordered by Providence towards a greater good. Jimmy offers valuable practical tips for discussing the question with skeptics, such as how to avoid certain wellmeaning but incorrect answers Christians often give (plus the one thing you should never say). He also gives you seven useful approaches you can take when people s faith (or your own) is shaken by suffering. Watch The Problem of Evil and learn how God s love does not fail in the face of evil, but shines through it and will triumph over it in the world and in our lives
