There is a rather famous set of Mass Schedule & Intentions examples in this gospel of Jesus saying to cut off the hand or foot that SUNDAY, S EPTEMBER 30 TWENTY -S IXTH S UNDAY IN O RDINARY T IME offends – gouge out the eye. Was Readings: Nm 11:25-29/ Jas 5:1-6/ Mk 9:38-43,45,47-48 Jesus exaggerating when he urged his Psalm Response: Ps 19:8,10,12-13,14 followers to use drastic measures to 9:00 AM Resident Parishioners avoid evil and its harmful 11:00 AM Youth consequences? Jesus set before his 7:00 PM Student Parishioners disciples the one supreme goal in life 9:00 PM Staff of St.Tom’s that is worth any sacrifice, and that goal is God himself and his will for our lives which leads to everlasting peace and MONDAY, O CTOBER 1 S T. T HÉRÈSE OF THE C HILD J ESUS Readings: Jb 1:6-22/ Lk 9:46-50 happiness. 11:30 AM Mark Shatava We must be ready to part with anything that causes us to sin. I 5:30 PM Missionaries am going to repeat that because it is very important. We must TUESDAY, O CTOBER 2 M EMORIAL OF THE G UARDIAN A NGELS be ready to part with anything that causes us to sin. And more. Readings: Jb 3:1-3,11-17,20-23/ Mt 18:1-5,10 We are not to give offense or bad example that might lead 11:30 AM Volunteers another to sin. 5:30 PM Lay Ministers

We live on rivalry. Our rarest concern is the other’s good. WEDNESDAY, O CTOBER 3 There are exceptions that are won through relationships of Readings: Jb 9:1-12,14-16/ Lk 9:57-62 commitment and trust – usually marriage and deep 11:30 AM Priests of St. Tom’s friendships. We talk a lot of love. But the living of it requires a 9:00 PM Awakening Community great testing in our lives, a shaking down of our pretense. Love in dreams, Dostoevsky wrote, is easy; but the reality of it is THURSDAY, O CTOBER 4 S T. F RANCIS OF A SSISI something very different. Readings: Jb 19:21-27/ Lk 10:1-12 11:30 AM Franciscan Sisters, Priests and Brothers We are not in it alone – thanks be to God. We – you and I - are 5:30 PM World Peace in this together.

The problem of Readings: Gn 2:18-24/ Heb 2:9-11/ Mk 10:2-16 Dostoevsky’s doctor is that he wants love, but not its cost. Psalm Response: Ps 128:1-2,3,4-5,6 Love is more than logic, proofs or rationality. It is a risk of the 9:00 AM Christoph Neugebauer ego, an emptying of the self, the mystery of love: first, that God 11:00 AM Brothers and Sisters in Haiti would love us; second, that we, given such a gift, might 7:00 PM St. Francis Xavier, Baudin, Haiti generously love others. 9:00 PM Dominicans We must ask the Lord to fill us with the fire of his purifying love that we may rejoice in the good of others, even in those who cross us or cause us difficulty.
