3 Where will you be 100 years from now?

High blood pressure is known as a Silent Killer since very often the individual experiences no symptoms. Getting your blood pressure checked is a short and simple health screening that you should do regularly. Plan to stop in the back of Church next weekend. Remember, it is a quick way to monitor your health! Adoration takes place every Wednesday in church starting at 1pm. At 3pm we conclude with the Chaplet of Divine Mercy and Benediction. Come and spend time with our Lord. Ever wonder who the Knights of Columbus are? Ever consider becoming a member?

We invite them to the 10:00 a.m. Mass on Sunday, November 9, 2014 followed with breakfast in the Queen of Peace Room RSVP: Please leave a message on Mr. Ron Mazzoni s parish phone Adoracja Najºwiêtszego Sakramentu w naszym koºciele odbywa siê w kaýdà ºrodê od godz. 1 do 3:00 po po³udniu. Na zakoñczenie adoracji udzielane jest b³ogos³awieñstwo Najºwiêtszym Sakramentem. EVERYTHING BELONGS TO GOD The first reading from the prophet Isaiah concerns the Persian King Cyrus, called the Lord s anointed. Cyrus deserves this title because he ended the Babylonian captivity of the Jews. However, Isaiah reminds us that it was God who gave Cyrus his power. He may be a great king, but I am the LORD and there is no other, says God (Isaiah 45:5). Today s Gospel is also concerned with worldly power. In the passage from Matthew, the Pharisees try to trick Jesus into speaking against the emperor. His famous answer is the perfect reply. Like the kings of old, Caesar can be given the respect due his position, but everything belongs to God. In the second reading, Paul gives thanks for all who are faithful to Jesus Christ and his gospel. He, too, reminds us that our call and the power to be faithful come from God. The month of October is dedicated to praying the Rosary. All year long a group of people pray the rosary after the daily 8:30am Mass from Tuesday through Saturday. Consider joining them or commit to a time each day during the month to pray.

6 St. Thecla School Our annual Pet Blessing Mr. Cerjak's 5th Grade Class Our 4th, 5th, and 6th Grade classes recently attended a special program hosted by Roden Library. We joined Mad Science as they walked us through an entire science fair project while we learned about the steps of the scientific method. We constructed a hypothesis and then tested it out by conducting a real experiment simulating the sun's rays. Our Young Scientists then collected data on what we observed and made conclusions based off of our results. What a fun time! Mr. Cerjak Our school is growing! Have you considered Catholic school for your children? We have 3 and 4 year old preschool with half-day and full-day options. K through 8th grade receive auxiliary classes as well as traditional academics; 1:1 ipads; technology; and a curriculum that is based on the Catholic Faith.
