2 November Month of Remembrance _ àâüzç VÉÜÇxÜ During the month of November, we take time to remember all of the loved ones who have gone before us marked with the sign of faith. There is a special Book of Remembrance located near the Sanctuary next to the Paschal Candle (the symbol of Christ as our eternal light). You are most welcome to write in the book the name(s) of deceased loved ones. We leave the book throughout the month of November to remind us all that November is a month to pray for the deceased. We will also include these names in our weekend Universal Prayers. Mass Intentions Each time we gather for Mass, we hear the priest say in similar words, Remember also our brothers and sisters who have fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection, and all who have died in your mercy; welcome them into the light of your face. Readings for the Week Monday Rom 11:29-36; Ps 69:30-31, 33-34, 36; Lk 14:12-14 Tuesday Rom 12:5-16b; Ps 131:1bcde, 2, 3; Lk 14:15-24 Wednesday Rom 13:8-10; Ps 112:1b-2, 4-5, 9; Lk 14:25-33 Thursday The Dedication of the Lateran Basilica Ez 47:1-2, 8-9, 12; Ps 46:2-3, 5-6, 8-9; 1 Cor 3:9c-11, 16-17; Jn 2:13-22 Friday Saturday Sunday Saint Leo the Great, Pope and Doctor of the Church Rom 15:14-21; Ps 98:1, 2-3ab, 3cd-4; Lk 16:1-8 Saint Martin of Tours, Bishop Rom 16:3-9, 16, 22-27; Ps 145:2-3, 4-5, 10-11; Lk 16:9-15 Thirty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time Wis 6:12-16; Ps 63:2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8; 1 Thes 4:13-18 or 4:13-14; Mt 25:1-13 Parking Reminder..... Please Remember to park only in parish parking lots or in legal places on the streets. Police are watching the area during Mass and will ticket those who are illegally parked in no parking zones or on the grassy areas near sidewalks. Thank you for your cooperation! Therefore, at every Mass, we remember those who have gone before us, whether or not their name is specifically mentioned during the Mass. We entrust their souls to God and know that he, in his infinite wisdom, will mercifully receive them into eternal life. It is nice to remember someone by name at a Mass but our prayers for them and for all who have died are received just as equally at every Mass, whether or not the name is specifically mentioned.

3 Religious Education News Why did God make you? a catechism of the 1950s asked. It answered: God made us to know, love, and serve him in this life and to be happy with him in the next. That is what catechesis religious education is still about today. You can make a difference in the faith development of children by helping in our religious education programs as a catechist or assistant in the classroom. Teaching children in Pre-K through Grade 8 will deepen your own understandings of our faith and love of God.

Healing, Deliverance and Peace Father Jose Maniyangat is a world known speaker and is an instrument of healing. He was ordained in 1975 in the Diocese of Thiruvalla, India. In 1992 Father Jose came to the St. Augustine Diocese and worked in several parishes. He retired from active parish duties April 15, 2016 to be able to share the Ministry invested to him by God with people around the world. On Divine Mercy Sunday, April 14, 1985, Father Jose was on the way to celebrate Mass when he was in a fatal collision with a drunk driver. Father Jose, accompanied by his Guardian Angel visited Hell, Purgatory and Heaven. During his time in heaven, Father Jose received a special message from God. He was told by Our Lord that the world was in great need of healing: I need you. I want you to go back. In your second life you will be an instrument of healing, deliverance and peace to My people and you will walk in a foreign land and speak a foreign tongue. and was given the gift of healing. Fr. Jose has traveled to major cities of the United States and countries overseas to conduct Eucharistic Healing Services, retreats and conferences. Many miraculous healings have occurred at these services. Those who are looking for healing of the mind, body and soul are invited to come and receive the healing power of Jesus Christ who is the Supreme Healer. Come experience the touch of God through the Eucharist, the Mass, worship and prayer. Eucharistic Healing Mass will be celebrated Tuesday, November 14, 7:00 pm Visit Fr. Maniyangat s website at:
