The Parable of the Bags of Gold Thirty- Third Week of Ordinary Time - Year A- Psalter Week 1 Saturday 14th November – Saturday 21st November The Parable of the Bags of Gold 14 “Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his wealth to them. 15 To one he gave five bags of gold, to another two bags, and to another one bag,[a] each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. 16 The man who had received five bags of gold went at once and put his money to work and gained five bags more. 17 So also, the one with two bags of gold gained two more. 18 But the man who had received one bag went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money. 19 “After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20 The man who had received five bags of gold brought the other five. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five bags of gold. See, I have gained five more.’ 21 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’ 22 “The man with two bags of gold also came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with two bags of gold; see, I have gained two more.’ 23 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’ 24 “Then the man who had received one bag of gold came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 So I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.’ 26 “His master replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? 27 Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest. 28 “‘So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags. 29 For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 30 And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The Papal Nuncio to Great Britain, Archbishop Antonio Mennini, speaking on behalf of Pope Francis, said: “It gives me great joy to be here today for the installation of your new Archbishop, especially as you have chosen this particular day of St Joseph the Worker. This marks a new beginning for you all.” Following the Gospel, Archbishop Malcolm McMahon gave an inspiring homily during which he highlighted the Hillsborough inquests as a shining example of the search for truth. Archbishop McMahon said that justice will be done for the 96 people who lost their lives and for their relatives. He said the families of the victims had shown a dignity over the last quarter century, which was an example to everybody. "God has endowed the people of Liverpool, Lancashire and the Isle of Man with many great gifts, not least constancy in our Catholic faith,” he said. “The Martyrs of Lancashire testify to their love of Jesus’ name and their fidelity to the truth.

  • THE LATERAN TREATY 11Th February, 1929
    THE LATERAN TREATY 11th February, 1929 1. CONCILIATION TREATY In the name of the Most Holy Trinity. Whereas the Holy See and Ital have recognised the desirability of eliminating every reason for dissension existing between them and arriving at a final settlement of their reciprocal relations which shall be consistent with justice and with the dignity of both High Contracting Parties. And which by permanently assuring-to the Holy See a position de facto and de jure which shall guarantee absolute independence for the fulfilment of its exalted mission in the world permits the Holy See to consider as finally and irrevocably settled the Roman Question which arose in 1870 by the annexation of Rome to the Kingdom, of Italy, under the Dynasty of the House of Savoy; Whereas it was obligatory, for the purpose of assuring the absolute and visible independence of the Holy See. Likewise to guarantee its indisputable sovereignty in international matters, it has been found necessary to create under special conditions the Vatican City, recognising the full ownership, exclusive and absolute dominion and sovereign jurisdiction of the Holy See over that City; His Holiness the Supreme Pontiff Pius XI and His-Majesty Victor Emmanuel III, King of Italy, have agreed to conclude a Treaty, appointing for that purpose two Plenipotentiaries, being on behalf of His Holiness, His Secretary of State, viz. His Most Reverend Eminence the Lord Cardinal Pietro Gasparri, and on behalf of His Majesty, His Excellency the Cav. Benito Mussolini, Prime Minister and Head of the Government; who, having exchanged their respective full powers, which were found to be in due and proper form, have hereby agreed to the following articles: Article 1 Italy recognizes and reaffirms the principle established in the first Article of the Italian Constitution dated March 4, 1848, according to which the Catholic Apostolic Roman religion is the only State religion.

    ‘TEST YOUR FAITH ’ QUIZ FOR ADULTS August 2, 2020 “ O F P O P E S A ND C A R D I N A L S” Msgr. Pat Stilla (Scroll down to pages 2 & 3 for the correct answers ) T F 1. “The Vatican ” is an Italian City under the jurisdiction of the City of Rome. T F 2. St. Peter is buried under the central Papal altar in St. Peter’s Basilica. T F 3. “Roman Pontiff”, which is one of the Pope’s titles literally means, “Roman Bridge Builder”. T F 4. The Pope, who is sometimes called, the “Vicar of Christ”, is always dressed in white, because Christ wore a white robe when He walked the earth. T F 5. When one is elected Pope, his new name is chosen by the Cardinals. T F 6. After St. Peter, the name, “Peter” has never been chosen as a Pope’s name. T F 7. The name most frequently chosen by a Pope after his election, has been “Benedict”, used 16 times. T F 8. Since the Pope is not only the “Holy Father” of the entire world but also the Bishop of Rome, it is his obligation to care for the Parishioners, Bishops, Diocesan Priests and Parish Churches of the Diocese of Rome. T F 9. The Pope’s Cathedral as Bishop of Rome is St. Peter’s Basilica. T F 10. One little known title of the Pope is, “Servant of the servants of God”. T F 11. “Cardinal“ comes from a Greek word which means, a “Prince of the Church”.
