Each previous episode thus far has resulted in his recovery, but he has grown increasingly weak and every occurrence has taxed his system. His condition remains guarded.

DON T FORGET YOUR PLEDGE PAYMENT. Arriving Late for Mass & Holy Communion Simply put, the Mass is a unity from beginning to end. Those attending should be there for the entire Mass. If you are the cause of your lateness, due to negligence or casualness, you should not receive. If someone or something else caused your lateness, then you may be able to receive Holy Communion if you have not missed a major portion of Mass. While there are no strict rules on this matter, common sense should apply. Remember, also, that Mass is not celebrated simply so that people might be provided Holy Communion. No one is obliged to receive Holy Communion during Mass, except the celebrant. Therefore, reason would indicate that a timely arrival and preparation should be the norm when one does intend to receive. Correction Last week, I printed something erroneous about the marriage of baptized non-catholics. To clarify: first, the marriage between a baptized non-catholic and a Catholic-- is already a sacrament by its very nature. Second, I had intended to write about the marriage of a Catholic and a non-baptized person. This marriage is raised to the dignity of a sacrament when the non-baptized person accepts baptism, and is thus received into the Church. A Novena of Masses (Nov. 2-10) will be offered for the All Souls intentions submitted, as well as their remembrance during the remainder of the month. On Nov. 2, Fr. McCarthy will offer three consecutive Masses, beginning at 6:30am. This fulfills an All Souls Day practice of earlier days. Those who attend the first Mass, may leave after Holy Communion has been distributed. New in the Library DVDs: 1)Blessed Duns Scotus, 2)Vianney Speaks.
