From the Pastor: Mass Intentions for the Week Christian author C.S. Lewis once wrote that Christi- anity is not so much about being nice people but in being Saturday, October 13 "new men." We see this contrast in today's Gospel. 5:00 PM Church Mary O’Reilly "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" Jesus first answers in the predictable way. “Follow 5:00 PM Chapel Tim Healy the commandments! "Teacher, all of these I have observed from my youth." Sunday, October 14: Twenty-eighth Sunday in Ordinary Perhaps for some of us it's easy to answer this Time way. "I'm a good person!" he seems to reply. Does he truly 8:00 AM Kay O’Neil follow all the commandments he professes to follow? Does he -- in word and deed -- check off all the boxes of 10:30 AM Church Prayer petitions of OLSH parishioners the moral law? Perhaps. Whether he's being honest or fudging the truth, Jesus accepts his answer at face value 10:30 AM Chapel Leelamma Philip with compassion. "Jesus, looking at him, loved him."

12 Noon Patrick Teahan But he's not done yet! Jesus wants to remind us Monday, October 15: St Teresa of Jesus, Virgin, Doctor of that this attitude alone is not enough. "Go, sell what you the Church have ... then come, follow me." Jesus' invitation to the young man is radical. Abandon everything that gives you 8:00 AM Dorothy & William Murtha any sense of security.

"How hard it is to en- Mary Alacoque, Virgin ter the kingdom of God!" It's easier, Jesus says, for a gigan- tic camel to squeeze itself through a tiny needle's eye. But 8:00 AM Leocadio Bonifacio the God of the universe creates out of nothing, breaks the bars of hell, and raises the dead to life. Is a needle's eye 12:30 PM Zelko & Stanko Grbic really such an obstacle? Wednesday, October 17: St. Ignatious of Antioch, Bishop, Jesus' invitation is always bigger than our own limi- Martyr tations.

St. Luke the Evangelist

On October 18, Catholics and other Christians around the world will celebrate the feast of St. Luke, the physician and companion of St. Paul whose gospel preserved the most extensive biog- raphy of Jesus Christ.

St. Luke wrote a greater volume of the New Testa- Weekly Intercession during Respect Life ment than any other single author, including the earliest history of the Church. Ancient traditions Month: October 14 also acknowledge Luke as the founder of Christian iconography, making him a patron of artists as well as doctors and other medical caregivers. For all of us, who are called by name Luke came from the large metropolitan city of Antioch, a part of modern to be disciples of Christ: May he give us -day Turkey.. Historians do not know whether Luke came to Christianity from Judaism or paganism, although there are strong suggestions that courage to open our hearts to those Luke was a gentile convert. who are most vulnerable during this Educated as a physician in the Greek-speaking city, Luke was among the Respect Life Month and always; most cultured and cosmopolitan members of the early Church. Scholars of archeology and ancient literature have ranked him among the top We pray to the Lord historians of his time period, besides noting the outstanding Greek prose style and technical accuracy of his accounts of Christ's life and the apostles' missionary journeys.

Albertus Magnus High School Other students of biblical history adduce from Luke's writings that he recently welcomed another large freshman class, was the only evangelist to incorporate the personal testimony of the and we look forward to the new wave of AM Falcons, Blessed Virgin Mary, whose role in Christ's life emerges most clearly in Class of 2023. his gospel.

Two New Canonized on October 14

Pope Paul VI, a pope of dialogue

Born Giovanni Battista Enrico Antonio Maria Montini on Sept. 26, 1897, Pope Paul VI led the from 1963 until his death on August 6, 1978. Succeeding John XXIII, Paul VI continued the Second Vatican Council implementing its numerous reforms. He wanted a Church that was in dialogue with the modern world. He treated the theme of dialogue at great length in his encyclical Ecclesiam Suam, released on Aug. 6, 1964, exactly 14 years before his death. In it, he wrote he felt a “vocation” to dialogue between the Church and the world. Faced with the issue of whether to change the Church’s longstanding opposition to artificial birth control, Paul VI penned his landmark encycli- cal Humanae Vitae in 1968, delivering a strong “no” to change and re- affirming the Church’s teaching on contraception. Even though his papa- cy lasted for another 10 years, this would be his last encyclical. Once described by Pope Benedict XVI as “superhuman,” Paul VI governed the Church in the turbulent post-conciliar phase. In the words of Pope Francis, he was a man who “knew how to witness, in difficult years, to the faith in Jesus Christ.” Pope Francis has spoken repeatedly about his predecessor, and earlier this year he confirmed that Paul VI would be made a saint before 2018 was over. Even though Humanae Vitae has garnered much of the discussion over the legacy of his predecessor, for Francis there’s another document that is “the greatest pastoral document written to date” - Paul VI’s 1975 ex- hortation on evangelization, Evangelii Nuntiandi (On Proclaiming the Gospel). In Evangelii Nuntiandi, Paul VI wrote that the Church itself “has a con- stant need of being evangelized,” and that people today listen “more willingly to witnesses than to teachers, and if he does listen to teachers, it is because they are witnesses.” “The world calls for, and expects from us, simplicity of life, the spirit of prayer, charity towards all, especially towards the lowly and the poor, obedience and humility, detachment and self-sacrifice. Without this mark of holiness, our word will have difficulty in touching the heart of modern man. It risks being vain and sterile,” Paul wrote. Paul will become the third pope that Francis has made a saint since his election five years ago. Oscar Romero, El Salvador’s first saint Oscar Romero, who will become the first Salvadoran saint, was born on August 15, 1917. He was gunned down during Mass in a hospital chapel March 24, 1980, a day after telling an army made up largely of peasants that they were killing their own people. “No soldier is obliged to obey an order that is contrary to the will of God,” he said. He was shot through the heart by gunmen linked to a right-wing death squad while celebrating Mass, after saying, “one must not love oneself so much as to avoid getting involved in the risks of life that history demands of us, and those who fend off danger will lose their lives.” Romero was outspoken against military oppression during his country’s bloody civil war in the 1980s, and also of the role the United States played in it. In a letter he sent to U.S. president Jimmy Carter in February of 1980, he urged America not to send military aid to El Salvador: “You say that you are Christian. If you are really Christian, please stop sending military aid to the military here, because they use it only to kill my people.” His death is considered by the Catholic Church to have been in “odium fidei,” meaning in hatred of the faith. Romero was beatified in San Salvador on May 23, 2015, in a ceremony that drew an estimated 250,000 people, believed to have been the larg- est religious gathering ever held in Central America. https://cruxnow.com/vatican/2018/05/19/pope6 -to-canonize-paul-vi-oscar-romero-in-rome-oct-14/ Pizzi Funeral Home Family Owned & Operated LLC Michael Pizzi, Mgr.
