Saturday/Sábado OCTOBER 5 My dear People at 4:00 pm: For the Parishioners of Blessed Seelos 7:00 pm: Neocatechumenal Way Mass in Cenacle Blessed Seelos Parish:

Sunday/Domingo OCTOBER 6 8:00 am: They say there are two kinds of people, those who think + Patricia Thompson there are two kinds of people and those who don’t. That’s + Evelyn Schoonenberg just a joke. Read it again and eventually you will get it. It + Ascencio means that using such redundancy, proves the point. I + Souls in Purgatory have always felt it gives us a good insight about people and + Souls of the Innocents 9:30 am: how to understand them. For example, my favorite singer + Gloria Feindell & Fam (L&D) says that he divides people in two kinds: Those who bring + Edgardo Ávilez peace, and those who take it away. Jesus in the Gospel + Blessed Seelos Altar Society Members (L&D) today tells us: When you have done all you have been + Souls of the Innocents + Souls in Purgatory commanded, say, 'We are unprofitable servants; we have For the Health of: done what we were obliged to do.'" In the Christian life, we • Leonard J. Brune can divide people in two as well: Those who came to be 11:30 am: served, and those who serve. Obviously, Jesus reminds us + Teresa Ruíz Ramos + Marcos Dubon that we should be on the side of those who serve. It would + Josefina Gutierrez be a good examination of conscience every day to check + José Trinidad Hernández where did we fall on that line scale. Read the life of Blessed + Aurora Hilda Navarrete Gómez Seelos. He was definitely on the side of those who came to + Francisco “Paco” López + Nancy Parker Boyd serve. + Jesús Vargas + Vilma Ponce Dicen que hay dos tipos de personas, los que piensan que + Eduardo Rodriguez Ruberté hay dos tipos de personas y los que no. Eso es un chiste. + Herminia Lanza + Cristina Mendoza Léelo otra vez y seguro que eventualmente lo entiendas. + Almas en el Purgatorio Quiere decir que el usar la redundancia prueba el punto. Intenciones Especiales: Siempre he pensado que esto nos da un buen entendimiento • & Stephanie Cajigas Loyola y Fam de las personas. Por ejemplo, mi cantante favorito le gusta • Carlos A. Vargas & Family (L&D) • María A. Loyola Santiago & Fam. (L&D) decir que él cataloga las personas en dos grupos: Los que Monday/Lunes OCTOBER 7 nos traen paz, y los que nos la quitan. Jesús en el evangelio 8:00 am: Joy Nugent de hoy nos dice: Cuando hayan hecho todo lo que se les ha Tuesday/Martes OCTOBER 8 encomendado, digan, “Somos siervos inútiles; solo hemos 8:00 am: Communion Service Wednesday/Miércoles OCTOBER 9 hecho lo que se nos ha encomendado.” En la vida cristiana, 8:00 am: +August P. Borges, Jr podemos dividir las personas en dos grupos también: Los Thursday/Jueves OCTOBER 10 que vinieron a ser servidos, y los que vinieron a servir. 8:00 am: + Charlotte Lightell Obviamente, Jesús nos recuerda que debemos estar en el 6:00 pm: Stephanie & Michael Cajigas-Loyola Friday/Viernes OCTOBER 11 grupo de los que vinieron a servir. Sería un excelente 8:00 am: + Harold Lightell examen de consciencia cada día ver donde caemos en esta SANCTUARY LAMPS escala. Lean el ejemplo del Beato Seelos. Definitivamente él estaba en el lado de los que vinieron a servir. CHURCH: + Jan Carlos Bermúdez Fr.
