Those who are sick in turn, remember all of us daily in their prayers and in their sufferings. Mary Ayello Anthony R.

No servant can serve two masters. He will hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon (wealth). LUKE 16:13 Is money a god that you put before God? Giving money to support the Church and other charity is a pillar of our Faith, just like a ending Mass every Sunday and par cipa ng in parish ministry. Giving money frees us from being a slave to money and increases our dependence on God and to trust that He will provide all that we need. Thank you! Sincere THANK YOU to all who give their me to keep our church clean. Thank you for your faithfulness and dependability. Please know that your help is very much valued and appreciated.

If you wish to schedule Mass inten ons for next year, please come to the Rectory basement from 4:00 p.m. un l 6:00 p.m. Sanctuary Lamps may be also scheduled on or a er the 6th. What does it mean to have a Mass offered" for someone? An individual may ask a priest to offer a Mass for several reasons: for example, in thanksgiving, for the inten ons of another person (such as on a birthday), or, as is most common, for the repose of the soul of someone who has died. One must never forget the infinite graces that flow from the Sacrifice of the Mass which benefit one s soul. We find not only the origins of this prac ce da ng to the early Church but we also clearly recognize its importance.

7 October 2, th Ordinary Sunday Page Seven OCTOBER IS THE MONTH OF ROSARY AND THE RESPECT LIFE MONTH For us Catholics October is Respect Life Month, the Month of the Rosary and the Month of the Missions. The first Sunday of October is Respect Life Sunday; October 7 is the Memorial of Our Lady of the Rosary; and Sunday October 23rd is World Mission Sunday. This might be an appropriate me to think about personal or family recita on of the Rosary. So many people think that the Rosary is the repe on of prayers when it is really medita on on the mysteries in the life of Our Blessed Lady and the Lord Jesus. Try this during the month of October this year! Begin the Rosary in the usual way and when you come to the mysteries just say the Our Father, read the verse in the Scripture that corresponds to the mystery, be silent for a few moments, say the Hail Mary and Glory be and move on to the next mystery. Legend has it that the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to St. Dominic in 1206 and gave him the Holy Rosary to pray in his fight against the here cs of the me and to preach its use and efficacy. History is replete with both personal and worldly triumphs a ributed to the devout devo on of the Holy Rosary. The Rosary is Christ centered se ng forth in its mysteries the en re life of Christ. At the same me the Rosary honors and contemplates Mary also because of the mission she received from God. The prayers of the Rosary are directly from Christ himself, from Scriptures or from the Church. The rosary consists of two elements: the recita on of the prayers and the medita on on the mysteries. While recita on of the rosary has its origins several centuries ago, it is a very contemporary prayer that nurtures our faith. Pray the rosary this month for world peace and for the protec on and dignity of all human life from concep on to natural death.

FERDYNANDA Odmawiajcie Różaniec ile to już razy słyszał świat to wezwanie Maryi? W różnych zakątkach ziemi, w różnych sytuacjach, świat otrzymuje od Matki Bożej wciąż to samo przesłanie: "Odmawiajcie Różaniec!" Jest to w pewien sposób testament naszej Matki i Królowej - Maryi, która czeka na naszą modlitwę by uprosić uzyskanie łaski pokoju miedzy narodami i ludami, w rodzinach, w ognisku domowym, w sumieniach, miedzy Bogiem i ludźmi. Różaniec jest modlitwą uciszenia naszego życia codziennego, pełnego rytmu pracy, zagonienia, a często także cierpienia. Październik jest miesiącem modlitwy różańcowej w całym Kościele, dokładnie 1-go października, 21 lat temu 30 osób w naszej parafii za podpowiedzią ks. dr Jerzego Bieleckiego - zapoczątkowało, nieustanne, modlitewne czuwanie z Różańcem w rękach. Jest to szczególny rok dla naszej wspólnoty Kół Żywego Różanca, ponieważ poprzez modlitwę wspólne rozważania przygotowujemy się do obchodów 100 lecia objawień w Fa mie, które będziemy obchodzić w przyszłym roku. Codziennie 120 osób modli się jako "Żywy Różaniec" w intencji wspólnoty parafialnej, całego Kościoła, tak ważny w dzisiejszych czasach pokóju na świecie. "Żywy Różaniec" służy pomocą Księdzu proboszczowi w działaniach duszpasterskich. Koła różańcowe uczestniczą w życiu liturgicznym Kościoła parafialnego poprzez posługę modlitwy różańcowej podczas świąt i uroczystości maryjnych oraz kościelnych, poprzez comiesięczne pierwszo-sobotnie czuwania maryjne i sobotni różaniec przed polską Mszą św. Z myślą o coraz większym zawierzeniu Matce Najświętszej Uczestniczymy w Pielgrzymkach do Sanktuarjów Maryjnych. Ponadto w miarę możliwości wspomagamy różne placówki duszpasterskie oraz misyjne w Polsce i na innych kontynentach. Jeśli pragniesz doskonalić swoją duchowość i pobożność maryjną zapraszamy do Kół Żywego Różańca w parafii św. Ferdynanda. W każdą drugą niedzielę miesiąca gromadzimy się o 6:20 rano na wspólnym różańcu, Mszy św. o godz. 7:00 rano i krótkiej konferencji duchowej. Zapraszamy do naszej wspólnoty Kół Żywego Różańca, prosimy o kontakt z główną zelatorką p. Heleną : 773/

Niech Bóg wynagrodzi dobroć i obdarzy potrzebnymi łaskami Panią i całą rodzinę. Szczesc Boze! 29 i 30 października Picwick Theatre 5 S.Prospect, PARK RIDGE, IL October 2, 2016 PIERWSZY PIĄTEK MIESIĄCA Najbliższy piątek, 7 pazdziernika to Pierwszy Piątek miesiąca. Spowiedź święta od godz. 6:00PM dp 7:30PM. Msza św. o godz. 7:00. OTWARCIE KSIĄŻKI INTENCJALNEJ NA ROK 2017 Osoby, które pragną zamówić Msze św. Na rok 2017 zapraszamy w czwartek, 6 pażdziernika od godz. 4:00 6:00 wieczorem do biura parafialnego. Eucharys a jest źródłem i zarazem szczytem całego życia chrześcijańskiego. Msza św. jest największym DAREM, jaki zostawił nam Zbawiciel. On sam ofiaruje się za swoich wyznawców. Spełnia się Pamiątka Wieczernika, uobecnia ofiara Jego Męki, śmierci i zmartwychwstania. Kapłan w imieniu Chrystusa modli się za lud i ofiaruje intencje polecone mu przez wiernych. Potrzeba zamawiania Mszy świętych to wyraz szukania Bożej pomocy, duchowego wsparcia, czy dążenia do skrócenia mąk czyśćcowych naszym zmarłym. Możemy zamawiać Msze św. za bliskie nam osoby. Są one zawsze najlepszym prezentem i darem serca, jaki możemy ofiarować drugiej osobie. Bywa czasem, że nie bardzo potrafimy sformułować swoją intencję. Nie musimy pisać wielu słów. Pan Bóg doskonale wie czego nam potrzeba.

12 October 2, th Ordinary Sunday Page Twelve

13 October 2, th Ordinary Sunday Page Thirteen ON FAITH, AND SMILING IN THE DARK Copyright 2015 by John B. Reynolds Today s readings are all about faith. Like every Scripture passage, these passages I m sure mean different things to different people. Perhaps, then, all of the defini ons of faith from dic onary.com apply in one way or another, depending on circumstance. Like confidence or trust in a person or thing. Or belief that is not based on proof. Or belief in God or in the doctrines or teaching of religion. Or even the obliga on of loyalty or fidelity to a person, promise, engagement, etc. To me, though, a key element of faith is not even referenced here. This element has to do with ming (as in, precisely when one s faith is invoked). It s easy to have faith, a er all, when all is well with us. But some mes many of us... Forgive the presumed inclusion. Some mes I want everything to be lined up before I walk in faith. For example: God, I ll take this step of faith if you put a rainbow in the sky for me this a ernoon, and just this once, I d like you to mix up the order of the green and blue, and then seal the deal for me by sending two shoo ng stars my way come night fall. Uh, yellow shoo ng stars Yeah. It s easy to walk in faith when we know the path. But that s not faith. I had a poster in college that showed a wide-eyed cat miraculously clinging by its front paws to a horizontal metal bar. The cap on was something like: It s not really faith un l it s all you have to hang on to. To an extent, the prophet Habakkuk in the first reading is s ll trying to grasp this principle. I can t blame the guy, for albeit less eloquently, my pleas for help over the years--for myself and for the world-at-large- -have echoed the prophet s own plea. How long, O Lord? I cry for help but you do not listen! I cry out to you, Violence! but you do not intervene Destruc on and violence are before me; there is strife, and clamorous discord. To my ear, God s response is gentler than Christ s Oh-you-of-li le-faith response directed to his disciples before he calmed the storm at sea. By comparison, God tells Habakkuk: the vision s ll has its me, presses on to fulfillment, and will not disappoint; if it delays, wait for it, it will surely come, it will not be late I wrote an anniversary song for my wife a few years back, and the repea ng chorus goes like this: I m smiling in the dark because of you Ul mately, this defines faith. It s knowing--and I mean deep, deep down--that even during the hard and some mes terrifying mes, God is for us, and all is well. I m not saying that such faith is easy to come by. I am saying that such faith is the faith Jesus calls us to. Paul puts it this way to Timothy: Do not be ashamed of your tes mony to our Lord but bear your share of hardship for the gospel with the strength that comes from God, and when the apostles ask for increased faith, Jesus himself responds: If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you would say to this mulberry tree, Be uprooted and planted in the sea, and it would obey you. Man, what a powerful image! And if we could all embrace it--and I mean deep, deep down embrace it--then every day and always, we d be singing to our Triune God the same song I sang to Gail a few years back: I m smiling in the dark because of you.
