Our long-awaited First Holy Communion days have become a reality for our children who have waited for it for five months longer than usual. I hope that they will treasure this moment in their life not so much because it came at a uniquely historical moment in our world brought on by the Covid-19 virus, but because they now had a little extra time to prepare themselves more thoroughly to receive this great Sacrament of God’s love. I do hope that they will realize that this is one of many sacred opportunities to prepare them for the day when they will meet Jesus and, hopefully, be invited by Him to enter into Paradise. But this can only happen if the guidance they receive in life through the good example of their parents continues throughout their maturing process. Please pray that these little ones stay close to Jesus. This Sunday is Priesthood Sunday, and we especially honor our priests who serve us in our parish and our diocese. They, like the First Communicants, have found the “love of their life” in Jesus because they were raised in a home atmosphere of faith, love, virtue, devotion and good example. They are able to understand better the meaning of sacrificial service and are willing to offer themselves to God for the sake of His Kingdom. So, as we honor those priests who truly are witnesses of fidelity and obedience, let us pray a constant strengthening of their vocation. In our parish, we honor and pray for Father Danis Ridore, Father Jay Haskin (returning October 8th), Father Charles Perricone, as well as Seminary professors Monsignor Steven Bosso and Father Stephen Olds (returning to us when they’ve received the “all-clear” signal from their seminary rector, who also holds the entire seminary student body in self-imposed containment for the time being). Please remember to pray for me, too, that I may be a faithful and worthy minister the divine mysteries of Jesus. The Catholic faith formation of any human being, whether it’s an infant at Baptism, a child receiving First Communion, a man being ordained a priest, a couple marrying before God’s witness in church, or a servant dedicating their life as a consecrated religious, is best carried out in an atmosphere marked by love, fidelity and obedience. It can only grow when nurtured Saint Paul says that the obedience of Jesus was not simply a submission to the will of the Father; rather, Our Lord perfectly united Himself to his Father’s plans for our salvation. In doing so, Jesus gives us, His disciples, an example of what perfect obedience is: to make an active choice to follow the will of God in our lives. Like that of Jesus, our obedience to the will of God in our lives begins with freedom, the freedom to choose to follow the path that will lead to even greater freedom and ultimately our heavenly reward, or to follow the path that focuses on ourselves and the goods that the world gives, which will lead to a restriction of our relationship with God and, if not corrected, to our loss, ultimately, of eternal life in Heaven. In this regard, following the will of God for our lives gives us direction in roughly the same way that markings on the road give direction to travelers. When driving, we don’t feel restricted by the markings on the highway; on the contrary, they give us the freedom to focus on other things. So too, our obedience to the will of God in our lives gives us the freedom not to spend all of our time focusing on what is next or what we should do; rather, it frees us up to focus on living authentic lives that are committed to being Christ’s disciples and good stewards of the many gifts that we have been given.

Once again, the Columbiettes are selling fresh evergreen wreaths, table centerpieces and small trees for Christmas. They make beautiful and delightful gifts and are known to last well past the holidays. All wreaths are shipped directly to you or your gift recipient, so the order process is simple. You can order them through a Columbiette, the Gift Shop or the rectory office. You can also order them online at www.GiftItForward.com using the promo code: STVINCFL001 - enter COLUMBIETTES as the referring member or the name of the Columbiette who referred you. Orders are due by October 21st.

Our Treasure Coast Chapter is doing a special collection for the Forgotten Soldiers. These are for the “We Care” packages that are sent to soldiers overseas who may not ever receive packages from home. It reminds them that we care and appreciate what they do for our country. The Forgotten Soldiers Outreach, who sends out these care packages, has informed us that their cupboards are bare and items are desperately needed. Some of the items they need are travel and individual sizes of these: baby wipes, dental floss, lip balm, Chapstick, hand sanitizer, shave cream packets, shampoo, deodorant, lotion, sunscreen, mouthwash, and body wash. No hotel toiletries or used items are accepted. Parishioners are invited to help! Items can be dropped off in the office or given to a Columbiette. Additional items will be listed next week.

The Columbiettes continue to offer bottles of Holy Water at the east church doors. To help offset the cost, the suggested donation is $1.00 per bottle and it is set up for self-service. We truly thank everyone for the generous support they have shown us. While they are an important sacramental to have at home, they also make thoughtful little gifts for those who may not be able to attend church personally. You also may want to check the Gift Shop for a Holy Water font for use in your home as a way to establish a nice tradition. From The Power of One Drop of Holy Water: “The devil hates Holy Water because of its power over him. He cannot long abide in a place or near a person that is often sprinkled with this blessed water, by himself or someone else.”

Answer a prayer and remember the poor, especially during this pandemic. The Care Ministry is back to collecting food, so please feel free to bring in food donations for the poor boxes which are located near the church doors. Money along with your prayers are always appreciated as well.

Congratulations to all our children who recently received their First Holy Communion.

Thank you to all supporters of the Care Ministry. Today's Sunday Mass supersedes the feast of St. Vincent de Paul, the patron of all Catholic works of charity, including our own Care Ministry. St. Vincent de Paul had an extraordinary gift for organizing charity in impoverished 17th Century rural France. He solicited the rich, founded religious orders devoted to the poor, and built orphanages and hospitals. The St. Vincent de Paul Society was founded in his name a century and a half after his death and eventually became the worldwide Catholic charity that it is now. In the words of this great saint, "It is not sufficient for me to love God if I do not love my neighbor. I belong to God and to the poor." The Care Ministry helps area citizens with emergency situations such as utility payments to avoid disconnection, rent help in the event of an eviction notice, grocery store cards to purchase food, and help with other unforeseen events affecting them. If interested in joining our ministry, please call 561-272-7580 and leave a message for Jackie expressing your interest. You are also welcome to visit during one of our Wednesday night meetings in the rectory conference room (once we resume in-person meetings).

They support the work of our church. 2. It keeps money in our community. For every $100 spent at a locally owned business, $68 goes back into the community and your tax base. For every $100 spent at a chain store, only $43 comes back. Online purchases bring nothing back to our local community.

3. Keeps our community unique.Where we shop, where we eat and have fun—all of it makes our community home. Our one-of-a-kind businesses are an integral part of the distinctive character of our community.

4. Creates more good jobs. Small local businesses are the largest employer nationally and in our community.

5. Get better service. Local businesses often hire people with a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know customers.
