Conflicts, civil strife and economic conditions in the Middle East, Asia and Africa have dramatically increased the flow of refugees and economic migrants to Europe. As the Syrian conflict enters its fifth year, a combination of desperation and hope is leading growing numbers of Syrians to attempt an extremely perilous journey toward Europe. Harrowing stories have emerged of death, starvation and abuse at the hands of people smugglers. This year 2,000 Syrians have drowned in the Mediterranean in their attempt to reach European shores. To donate; either put a donation in an envelope marked Catholic Relief Services/Syrians & drop in the brown box in middle of church or mail it to: Migrant & Refugee Crisis Emergency Appeal, CRS, 3525 S.

4 Page Four St. William MASS FOR HOPE & HEALING Saturday, October 17, at 9:30 a.m. Why is our parish named after St. William? The booklet written for the dedication of the church in 1960 states that Since there was no church named for St. William in the Archdiocese, then St. William would have plenty of time in heaven to devote to this new church. Another idea is that the founding families had many men named William. Choose the reason that you like! Have you noticed the logo for our 100 th anniversary and wonder the inspiration was behind it? The cross is not just the cross of Jesus, but it is the shape of our church from up high in the sky. It is also a reminder of our church spire. The Star of Bethlehem behind the cross is the same one that is on the mosaic behind the altar. Are you starting to get hungry? Don t forget our International Octoberfest on Sunday, October 11 th.

7 MEDYTACJA AD IEDZIEL Ą EWA GELIĄ 25 iedziela Zwykła Moc w słabości 1. Prowadzeni przez Jezusa. Dzisiaj w Ewangelii Jezus idzie z uczniami przez Galileę. Pismo Święte nazywa tę krainę Galileą pogan. Tak jak Jezus prowadził swych uczniów przez pogańską Galileę, tak i nas prowadzi przez nasze miejsca zamieszkania i pracy, w których żyjemy i obracamy się na co dzień. Nie są one idealne, może są nawet jak Galilea takie jakieś bezbożne i pogańskie, ale Panu to nie przeszkadza. On chce być z nami wszędzie, zaprasza nas do cichej z Nim przyjaźni. 2. Bezradni wobec krzyża. A jak się z Nim zaprzyjaźnimy i zżyjemy, to tak jak apostołom i nam wtedy powie, że będzie cierpiał, będzie prześladowany, zabity; a po trzech dniach zmartwychwstanie. Ta tajemnica przerasta uczniów i ich przeraża, dlatego boją się pytać i nie chcą wiedzieć więcej. Z nami jest podobnie. Co roku przeżywamy Wielki Piątek i Wielką Noc. A jednak, gdy staniemy wobec naszego krzyża czy krzyża najbliższej osoby, wtedy nic nie rozumiemy i boimy się pytać o więcej. Jezus przychodzi, aby uczyć nas, że moc w słabości się doskonali, że Bóg paradoksalnie okazuje swą moc najpełniej wtedy, gdy człowiek w swej słabości potrafi powierzyć się Jemu. 3. Owoce miłości. Wobec tego Jezus proponuje nam pewną drogę przygotowania. Wie On dobrze, jak ufamy sobie i jak wywyższamy się nad innych. Nasze postawy podobne są do postaw uczniów, którzy idąc za Jezusem, sprzeczali się, kto z nich jest największy. Mówi On im i nam: Chcesz być pierwszy, bądź ostatni i bądź sługą wszystkich (Mk 9,35). Jezus chce, abyśmy Jemu całkowicie powierzali nasze życie. Pragnie, abyśmy pozwolili prowadzić się Jemu przez nasze Galilee, w intymności z Nim, bez rozgłosu. Prośmy Pana o dojrzałe owoce miłości Zapraszam do parafii św. Williama na spotkanie biblijne w piątek, 25 września, godz. 7:30pm na plebanii!
