DISCIPLESHIP AND WEALTH Sometimes we get the idea that having material wealth is a bad thing. We may convince ourselves that it is the poor who are favored. In today’s readings, we discover that material wealth alone does not keep us from discipleship. We will see that there are other gifts more important than material wealth, but even so, it is how we use our gifts that matters most. Today’s scriptures point to the value of the gifts of wisdom, trusting in God, and letting our actions reflect the love of God from within. It is not gold that causes us to fall, but rather the desire for gold above all other things. From the readings in Wisdom and Hebrews, we find the source of God’s gifts in our lives. Wisdom is more valuable than worldly possessions. In Hebrews, we are challenged to look at our own values and admit honestly what controls our lives. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
LOS DISCÍPULOS Y LA RIQUEZA A veces creemos que tener riquezas materiales es algo malo. Nos convencemos a nosotros mismos que los pobres son los más favorecidos. En las lecturas de hoy, descubrimos que las riquezas materiales no son lo único que nos impide ser discípulos. Ya veremos que hay otros dones más importantes que esas riquezas. Pero así todo, lo que más importa es el uso que hacemos de nuestros dones. Las Escrituras de hoy señalan el valor de los dones de la sabiduría, la confianza en Dios y una cualidad que permite que nuestras acciones reflejen el amor de Dios que llevamos en nuestro interior. No es el oro lo que nos hace tropezar, sino el desear el oro por encima de todo lo demás. En las lecturas de la Sabiduría y Hebreos, descubrimos la fuente de los dones de Dios en nuestra vida. La sabiduría vale mucho más que las posesiones materiales. En Hebreos, se nos motiva a examinar nuestros valores y a reconocer con honestidad qué es lo que rige nuestra vida. Copyright © J. S.

Just Chillin’2 will host “GAME ON” night on Friday, October 16th! This sports themed evening will be lots of fun featuring games, prizes and stadium style foods (Nachos, Hot Dogs & Special Desserts). Wear your FAVORITE team sports apparel. Donation of $5 is greatly appreciated.
Gospel Reflection: Today’s Gospel has a few key phrases. Focus family attention around these two: “sell what you have” and “follow me.” Do we simply say we want to follow Jesus because it seems like the right thing to do, but then pull away when we have to do the hard work of sacrificing our wants? Following Jesus demands that we choose not to be possessed by things, but by Jesus himself. To be possessed by Jesus, we must even give up our greatest possession of all: our very selves
What’s Ahead in R.E. Classes? CLASSES RESUME THIS WEEK!!! Teaching Touching Safety Program will be taught in all R.E. classes beginning the week of October 18. Permission forms for this program will be handed out in class. Please sign the forms and return to your child’s teacher.
Any child without a permission form on record, will NOT be admitted to the class. Home Study families must notify office if your child will attend a regular class session that week or if you will teach materials at home. For questions about this program, call Nancy Nazarian-Medina, DRE at 661.252.6950. Respect Life Week is October 26-30. Activities in classes will focus on the beauty of God’s creations and supporting our call as Catholic Christians to support the dignity of all human life.
Eucharistic Adoration for 1st and 6th grade families. Spend time with Jesus on Friday afternoons for 10-15 minutes or more from 4PM-7PM in the Chapel. Don’t forget to sign the R.E. Chapel Guest Book! Guides on Eucharistic Adoration will be given out during classes.
Meet 2nd grade R. E. teacher – Missy Kidd! Mrs. Kidd is currently in her 17th year as a volunteer cate-chist for St. Clare’s R. E. Program. For many years, Mrs. Kidd has taught the 2nd grade sacramental preparation class getting the children ready to receive their 1st Holy Com-munion. In this capacity, Mrs. Kidd has organized many retreats for families and has been instrumental in oversee-ing 1st Communion Masses. In addition, Mrs. Kidd is a known face around St. Clare because of her involvement helping out at church whenever needed. When asked what motivates her to continue in the ministry of education, Mrs. Kidd states, “I hope my students leave my class with a spark in their hearts that is ready to ignite when they are ready for it. I hope when they are ready to fully embrace their faith they will remember what they learned in my classroom.” We know that many young children grew in their faith be-cause of Mrs. Kidd’s generous way of sharing her own love for Christ. Thank you for continuing to spark that in today’s 2nd grade class!
Bring a friend! This event is open to all 7thAnd 8th grade students in Santa Clarita.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE La mayoría de las personas que viven en Estados Unidos han emigrado para mejorar su situación económica. Muchísi-mos lo han logrado mediante mucho trabajo, un buen salario y comprándose una buena casa en un vecindario tranquilo. En pocas palabras, se han hecho ricos. No obstante, éste mismo sueño se ha convertido en una pesadilla, pues todos sueñan con ser famosos, ganar mucho dinero, tener el carro más lujoso y vivir en un condominio muy exclusivo. El chiste es hacerse ricos a toda costa. Muchas veces sin importar los medios. En la Palestina del tiempo de Jesús todo mundo soñaba con hacerse rico. Las riquezas eran consideradas bendición de Dios, por eso los discípulos se asombraron cuando Jesús declara: “Es más fácil que un camello pase por el ojo de la aguja, que un rico entre en el Reino de Dios” (Marcos 10:25). El ojo de la aguja era una puerta baja y estrecha por la cual pasaba la gente común a Jerusalén. Jesús no está negando la entrada al cielo a los ricos, basta que hagan lo que hace el camello para pasar: despojarse de su carga. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Rachel’s Vineyard Weekend Retreat (for healing after abortion)
Rachel’s Vineyard is a safe place to renew, rebuild and redeem hearts broken by abortion. Weekend retreats offer a supportive, confidential and non-judgmental environment. Rachel’s Vineyard facilitates an experience of God’s com-passion on a profound level. It creates a place where you can share, often for the first time, your deepest feeling about abortion. Troubling secrets are allowed to be dismantled in an environment of emotional healing and spirituality. Rachel’s Vineyard is therapy for the soul. Participants who have been trapped in anger toward themselves or others, experience forgiveness. Peace is found. Lives are re-stored. A sense of hope is rediscovered.
