Hermes & Luz Agravante Thomas & Stephanie LeBlanc Scott & Heather Schube 2 OUR LADY OF MERCY PARISH

LOVE IS OUR MISSION HELD EVERY THREE YEARS AND SPONSORED BY THE HOLY SEE S PONTIFICAL COUNCIL FOR THE FAMILY, the World Meeting of Families is the world s largest Catholic gathering of families. Each World Meeting of Families has a theme that energizes and enlivens the event while adding great depth of meaning to our understanding of families. The theme of the World Meeting of Families Philadelphia 2015 is, Love Is Our Mission: The Family Fully Alive, emphasizing the impact of the love and life of families on our society. THREE OF OUR OWN MERCY FAMILIES EMBARKED ON A JOURNEY LAST WEEK NOT ONLY TO ATTEND THIS DYNAMIC CONFERENCE, there was an added bonus of a very special guest who just happened to be in town at the time, Pope Francis. The Hermanns, the Lairds, and the Romeros, with kids in tow, arrived in Philadelphia on Monday, September 21 via planes, trains, and automobiles to hear reassuring messages that the family is the source of light in the darkness. Nationally renowned speakers, Dr. Greg Popcak and his wife Lisa advised young families, the key to evangelization is wasting time, i.e. playing with your kids. An echo to the words of Pope Francis who said to an August 12 audience, we must never be slaves to work but rather its master. The Holy Father went on to explain in the same address that the different rhythms of family life should shift and focus on celebration, work, and prayer. DURING THE WORLD MEETING OF FAMILIES, the Popcaks went on to encourage realistic views of family life. Family life is not always easy; we are teaching our children that love is in fact demanding but through loving each other in a family, we learn how to love others in the world. THE ULTIMATE MESSAGE OF THE CONFERENCE - LOVE TRULY IS OUR MISSION. Let us learn how to give of ourselves for the sake of others, loving and caring for the weak and learning discipline and mercy.

Called to Prayer IN REMEMBRANCE Sanctuary Light Memorials The sanctuary light in the church burns this week in loving memory of Louis T Louie Comeaux, Sr. The sanctuary light in the Adoration Chapel burns this week in loving memory of Joseph Delaune In Sympathy to the Families of Dr. Wrendell Nealy Altar Flowers Memorial Each week you may honor a loved one with a gift of $150 to dedicate the floral arrangement that adorns our sanctuary. Please call the Church Office to make your gift. Memorial Gifts At the death of a loved one, many choose in lieu of flowers to encourage friends and family to make a donation to a special charity or cause. Our Lady of Mercy has nourished the spiritual life of so many parishioners and those throughout the Diocese who come here. A Memorial Gift to our parish and school is a wonderful way to acknowledge the lives of our beloved dead with a gift of loving generosity to the church that has been such a spiritual home. Ms. Deanie Smith can discuss beautiful ways for you to remember your loved one. OLOM is a beautiful place - it starts with the eyes, passes to the heart, and settles in the soul FR.

In anticipation of the Holy Year of Mercy proclaimed by Pope Francis, a tour of the remains of St. Maria Goretti seemed a natural choice to promote the Holy Year. WITH GREAT EXCITEMENT, THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF OUR LADY OF MERCY RECEIVING HER REMAINS was made at the unveiling of our master plan. Receiving the remains in our parish is certainly the greatest of honors as Our Lady of Mercy is the only stop between Florida and Texas. We anticipate guests from all over our region to join us in public veneration. We ask for your prayers at this time as we prepare for the Pilgrimage of Mercy. To learn more about St. Maria Goretti and for the full tour schedule, visit www.olomchurch.com.
