Over and over again he calls out to us to Director of Facilities and Maintenance come to the banquet of life, the table of plenty, the wedding feast. It is [email protected] for us an invitation to faith in Jesus Christ and to a share in the Ken Danchik Associate Organist Eucharistic table where we are nourished and strengthened by the [email protected] Body and Blood of our Savior. But this is also a foretaste and promise Beverly Farinelli of the eternal banquet in heaven, the wedding feast of the Lamb. The Wedding Coordinator prophet Isaiah uses beautiful images in speaking of “the feast of rich [email protected] food and choice wines, juicy, rich food and pure, choice wines.” He Don Fellows promises that on this holy mountain, God will destroy sin and death Director of Music and Organist forever and wipe away the tears of every face. We know of course that [email protected] this was the mountain of Calvary where Jesus’ sacrifice on the Cross Erica Gamerro redeemed the world and it is this sacrifice that is made present for us Part-time Pastoral Associate in every Mass when the Eucharist is celebrated. But he also holds out [email protected] for the Israelites the vision of heaven that will be the mountain upon Eileen Lancos which the fullness of God’s revelation and glory will be made manifest Sacristan for all who hold fast to faith and to the covenant. Jean Malek Parish Secretary This invitation from God calls us to faith in the person of Jesus Christ [email protected] and the truth of his Gospel. As St. Paul says in our second reading Christina McCann today, “God will fully supply whatever you need, in accord with the Wedding Coordinator glorious riches in Christ Jesus. “We who respond to the invitation to [email protected] faith will be given the strength we need to live in any circumstance of Mike Pittek life with the fullness of God’s saving love. Indeed like St. Paul, we can Office Manager [email protected] do “all things in him who strengthens me.” Faith calls to obedience, to trust, and to fidelity in God’s way of life, to embrace his Terri Taormina Director of Religious Education commandments, to live out fully the mandates of the Gospel. [email protected] Ted Wojcik But all too often, as the Gospel parable relates, we refuse God’s Sacristan invitation to life and to grace. Those who were invited in the parable Greg Zigray have a thousand excuses. Yes, of course, the parable speaks about Business Manager the chosen Israelites who have refused to believe that Jesus is the One [email protected] sent by God as the Messiah and they have lost their inheritance. But it speaks also of each one of us who have a multitude of excuses for not responding to God’s call to holiness of life, to conversion from our sins and to full faith in Jesus Christ and his Gospel. Faith requires great QUOTE OF THE WEEK things of us – that we will be able to love God with our whole heart, soul, mind, and strength and that we will love our neighbor as “We must never be ourselves. Dressing properly for the feast means that we continually strive to grow in the things that please God and put off the earthly discouraged or give garments of envy, greed, lack of forgiveness, selfishness, pride, way to anxiety… but ever stubbornness, impurity, and sloth. As we embrace the virtuous life and clothe ourselves with humility, compassion, forgiveness, have recourse to the kindness, patience, and love we dress ourselves in the wedding adorable Heart of Jesus.” garment that speaks to our dignity and beauty as a child of God. As ~ St. Margaret Mary Alacoque we sing today in our Gospel acclamation: “May the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ enlighten the eyes of our hearts, so that we may know what is the hope that belongs to our call.” Jesus says to us each day: “Christianity is greatest “Come to the feast.” May we always respond with a sense of urgency and desire to join ourselves more closely to Jesus Christ and the food when it is hated by the world.” of life and grace he provides. ~ St. Ignatius of Antioch 3 OCTOBER 11, 2020 | TWENTY-EIGHTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME SOCIAL MEDIA For parish updates, news, and more REFLECTIONS find us on Twitter and Facebook: twitter.com/saintpaulpgh FROM THE HEART OF OUR PASTOR, FATHER STUBNA facebook.com/stpaulpgh 1.

    From My Vow the Mexican ex-voto and the secular-sacred in poetry By Jen Hadfield I The witnessed miracle From Francisco Trujillo... Candelaria Arreola... Miss Josephine Rivera... from the place where you find Braulio Barrientos... Al Señor de los milagros... To our little mother... our most mysterious... the holiest Virgin...1 Before I begin to describe my research visit to Mexico, in the Año Nuevo of 2008 (an account that will reveal that I'm a terrible traveller, being neither courageous, resourceful, social nor spontaneous), I need to deliver a little spiel on Mexican devotional folk-art, in particular, the ex-voto. This is a votive painting on a small rectangle of tin, reliably possessing a trinity of consistent elements. First, the image of the holy person, generally cushioned by a nimbus of stylised light, occupies one corner of the upper part of the ex-voto. The remaining space is shared by the retablo scene – the depiction of a calamity in which a person finds themself at the moment of the saint's miraculous intervention – and an explanatory text: 1 All italicised excerpts from ex‐voto texts from Miracles on the Border, Retablos of Mexican Migrants to the United States, Jorge Durand and Douglas S.

  • East Side of Saint Paul Crime Related Needs Assessment
    EAST SIDE OF SAINT PAUL CRIME RELATED NEEDS ASSESSMENT A REPORT TO THE SAINT PAUL FOUNDATION FEBRUARY 2003 PREPARED BY THE COUNCIL ON CRIME AND JUSTICE RACIAL DISPARITY INITIATIVE EAST SIDE OF SAINT PAUL CRIME RELATED NEEDS ASSESSMENT TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 3-4 HISTORY OF THE COUNCIL AND RACIAL DISPARITY INITIATIVE 5 PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION 6-7 PROJECT RESULTS 8-21 IMPLICATIONS FOR FUTURE PROJECTS 22-25 2 Acknowledgements First and foremost, our sincerest thanks to the Saint Paul Foundation for investing in Payne- Phalen and Dayton’s Bluff so that we might assess the needs of the two communities relevant to crime. Thank you also to the many men and women who shared their personal experiences relevant to crime in their communities. There is a certain amount of vulnerability that is associated with opening up to a group of total strangers and sharing stories and experiences that are near and dear to our hearts. Stories that included, but were not limited to: • random crimes (often senseless acts of violence, vandalism and theft) • fear that has and continues to exist among various communities and within the hearts of community members • potential solutions to these problems • mixed emotions about law enforcement (the role officials currently play as opposed to the role that would best serve the community) • and tackling the seemingly unanswerable question of what would give the community in which you live more hope that crime can be reduced. Again, thank you for the courage and the willingness to trust and open up to us. Thanks are also extended to the focus group facilitators: Jeff Groves, Gaoxee Yang, Lynn Adkins and Bibiano Colon for the tremendous service rendered to the Council and their community by allowing us to train them in focus group facilitation and put their new found skill to work.

  • High School & Faculty
    High School and Faculty Suggested Reading List Summer, 2014 Abbott, Alysia. Fairyland: a Memoir of My Father. When Alysia Abbott is just two years old, her mother dies. Her father, struggling to meet his own needs as well as his daughter's, moves them to San Francisco, where he can live as an openly gay man in a thriving artistic community. This is one family's story, set against the backdrop of gay life from the poetry of the 1970s through the AIDS crisis of the 1980s and beyond. (Hannah Mermelstein) Adichie, Chimamanda Ngozi. Americanah. R The novel opens with Ifemelu getting her hair braided in preparation for a move back to Nigeria after living in the states for thirteen years. As she sits in the hair-braiding chair, we learn about her growing-up in Nigeria (and about her first love, Obinze), how she came to the United States to study, and all the highs and lows of her time here. By far the most interesting aspect of this novel is Ifemelu's observations about race as seen through posts in her widely read blog called Raceteenth or Various Observations About American Blacks (Those Formerly Known as Negroes) by a Non- American Black. At times profound, usually perceptive, and occasionally infuriating, this novel is nothing if not thought-provoking. (Ragan O’Malley) Alexie, Sherman. What I’ve Stolen, What I’ve Earned. In what I think is his best collection to date, Alexie re-invents the sonnet, inverts the abecedary, Use the and consistently delivers poems that make us reconsider who and what we Saint Ann’s Digital Library really are.

  • 1 INTRODUCTION Charteris and His Work Every Year the UK Crime
    1 INTRODUCTION Charteris and His Work Every year the UK Crime Writers' Association holds its prestigious “Diamond Dagger” ceremony. The Diamond Dagger is awarded annually to crime writers whose careers have been marked by sustained excellence, and who have made a significant contribution to crime fiction published in the English language. Winners have included Ian Rankin, Eric Ambler, John le Carré and Ruth Rendell. On 7 May 1992 the Chairman of the Association presented the Diamond Dagger to the 84-year old Leslie Charteris, whose fiction featuring the gentleman warrior, vigilante adventurer and modern knight-errant Simon Templar, known as the Saint, first appeared in 1928 and is still being published today. Outperforming both heroes and villains and a destroyer of society's enemies for decades, the central protagonist of Charteris’ twelve novels, thirty-four novellas and twelve volumes of short stories excelled in popularity. As Clive Bloom has warned, figures relating to book sales, at least in Britain, “must always be approached with considerable caution,”1 but based on known editions and reprints, publishers’ remarks and information from Charteris’ letters, it has been estimated that Charteris’ sales have topped forty million.2 While small in relation to the huge output and marketing of authors like the early twentieth-century thriller writer Edgar Wallace, or the famous Agatha Christie whose sales run into billions, Charteris’ sales record for his more modest output remains very substantial. Publication of his fiction tailed off in the 1980s, but from December 2012 Mulholland Books at Hodder and Stoughton commenced republication of thirty-five Saint titles.

  • Hello, If You Don't Already Know Me, My Name Is Ryan Hart. I'm 14, A
    Hello, If you don’t already know me, my name is Ryan Hart. I’m 14, a freshman at Pope John Paul II High school, and a graduate of last year’s class at St. Michaels School. I was invited to come here today to talk about a pretty touchy subject. Your hard earned money. Now I know for most people this is a hard thing to talk about. So I thought I’d start out by telling you all how many others and I have already benefited from the annual Catholic appeal. I attended Saint Michael School Kindergarten through 8th grade. Nine years in all. It was clear from the beginning that God was put first. I still remember my very first test at St. Mikes in Kindergarten. It was a prayer test of the sign of the cross and to this day I’m still embarrassed that I went “Father, Son, Holy Spirit” going right to left instead of left to right. For the record, I never made that mistake again. The school has been a wonderful part of my life as I have really spent half of my life there. I made amazing friends. More than half I’m still with because they wanted to continue their Catholic Education at Pope John Paul II High school. The teachers are the best of the best, and Fr. Jim and Father Cody come in quite often (added bonus, you get to see Fr Cody do way more backflips), but most importantly I understand so much more of my beautiful faith.
