31st Sunday of the Year

Shema Yisrael

This Sunday Jesus is giving the “Shema Yisrael” to us. The Shema Yisrael is the prayer

that all Jewish people around the world recite twice a day; once in the morning when

they rise and again in the evening before they sleep. It is considered the most essential

prayer in all of Judaism. The actual word "Shema" means to hear or to listen. It surely

sounded important.

Jesus has given us this Shema as the first and the second commandment, to love God and

to love our neighbour as ourselves. These two principles are inseparable. We cannot love

truly God without loving our neighbour, and in loving our neighbour we are, at the same

time, loving God. It is ingrained in our hearts, our histories, our home, our souls and our

memories. Everyone has a Shema story.

All Saints Day – Nov 1st

The Saints are not born, but made! They are ordinary people like us, of the same flesh

and blood as we. But they had the courage to be different, to do the ordinary things of

life in the extraordinary way of Christ from whom they drew their courage. There are

over 10,000 canonized saints. We not only acknowledge the saints whose names we

know that appear in the Catholic calendar, but also those unnamed saints in heaven that

have lived a faithful and blessed life on earth and attained their eternal reward. The

mission of the Saints in heaven is best expressed by what St. Therese of Lisieux said: “I

will spend my heaven doing good on earth”. We give thanks for those who have gone

before us and who intercede with God for us. Let us rejoice with them!

All Souls Day – Nov 2nd

We celebrate All Souls Day on Tuesday, 2nd November. Our masses will be at 7.30 am

and 6.00 pm. There will be blessing of Columbarium after each mass in our church. The

Lakes Lawn cemetery service will be held between 9.30 am to 10.30 am. Our priests

would be available in the cemetery. Those of you wish to offer masses for the departed

ones, you may either put your mass envelopes in the box kept inside the church or

entrust to the parish office.

Eucharistic Retreat Days – Nov 6th

and 7th

All are invited for a Eucharistic retreat on 6th and 7th of November in our parish centre

led by Fr. Dough Harris from Perth Archdiocese. Let us make this opportunity to be with

the Lord and make a deeper friendship with Him. More details are given in the bulletin.

AGM – Nov 14th

The annual general meeting of the Parish Pastoral Council is on 14th November after the

9.00 am Mass in our parish centre. Kindly note that we have only one morning mass that

day and it will be at 9.00 am. Very Rev. Fr. Tony Chiera, Vicar General of the diocese,

has agreed to be the main celebrant.

Have a beautiful weekend,

Fr. Johny Arattukulam, OCD

RESPONSORIAL PSALM Ps 17:2–4, 47, 51 R. I love you, Lord, my strength. I love you, Lord, my strength, my rock, my fortress, my saviour. My God is the rock where I take refuge; my shield, my mighty help, my stronghold. The Lord is worthy of all praise: when I call I am saved from my foes. R. Long life to the Lord, my rock! Praised be the God who saves me. He has given great victories to his king and shown his love for his anointed. R.

First Reading

A reading from the book of Deuteronomy 6:2–6 Moses said to the people: 'If you fear the Lord your God all the days of your life and if you keep all his laws and commandments which I lay on you, you will have a long life, you and your son and your grandson. Listen then, Israel, keep and observe what will make you prosper and give you great increase, as the Lord God of your fathers has promised you, giving you a land where milk and honey flow. 'Listen, Israel: The Lord our God is the one Lord. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength. Let these words I urge on you today be written on your heart.'

The word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

We welcome all friends, families and visitors to Our Lady’s Assumption Catholic Church. We are grateful of your presence

here today. We hope that you will have a wonderful and uplifting time with us. God bless you all.

Page 4: 31st Sunday in Ordinary Time (Mission Sunday)

SECOND READING

A reading from the letter to the Hebrews 7:23–28 There used to be a great number of priests under the former covenant, because death put an end to each one of them; but this one, Christ, because he remains for ever, can never lose his priesthood. It follows then, that his power to save is utterly certain, since he is living for ever to intercede for all who come to God through him. To suit us, the ideal high priest would have to be holy, innocent and uncontaminated, beyond the influence of sinners, and raised up above the heavens; one who would not need to offer sacrifices every day, as the other high priests do for their own sins and then for those of the people, because he has done this once and for all by offering himself. The Law appoints high priests who are men subject to weakness; but the promise on oath, which came after the Law, appointed the Son who is made perfect for ever. The Word of the Lord Thanks be to God.

Gospel acclamation

Alleluia, alleluia! All who love me will keep my words, and my Father will love them,

and we will come to them. Alleluia!

GOSPEL

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Mark 12:28–34 One of the scribes came up to Jesus and put a question to him, 'Which is the first of all the commandments?' Jesus replied, 'This is the first: Listen, Israel, the Lord our God is the one Lord, and you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: You must love your neighbour as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these.' The scribe said to him, 'Well spoken, master; what you have said is true: that he is one and there is no other. To love with all your heart, with all your understanding and strength and to love your neighbour as yourself, this is far more important than any holocaust or sacrifice.' Jesus, seeing how wisely he had spoken said, 'You are not far from the kingdom of God.' And after that no one dared to question him any more. The Gospel of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

What is God asking the of Church of Australia today?

That is the question that 283 other Plenary Council members and I prayed on, discerned, listened, discussed, and tried to answer. What can I say about the whole experience? In truth it was very, very difficult and draining at times. The immensity of the task before the Council, the complexity of the problems, and the frustration at the slow pace got to all of us members at some point. Sitting at a computer for almost seven hours also didn’t help. All of this made me (and I am sure all the other members) very appreciative for all the prayers and support for the Council, so thank you! Despite all this the Council was a really positive experience and filled me with hope. We should all take heart that the process is one of prayer, of listening to the Holy Spirit and of discernment first and foremost. Whatever the outcomes of the Plenary Council, the Spirit was truly present with us and in us. It leads me to what might be the most inspiring part of the Council – the people. The 284 members represented a cross section of the Church in Australia. There was a range of views and opinions reflecting the diversity we find in the Church today. There was a lot of disagreement. Yet people were respectful, deeply listening and loving. The Council is made up of good, genuine people, all trying to do their best. As we move toward the second assembly in July 2022 we ask you to continue praying for us, continue engaging with the Council and continue listening to the Spirit. If you are interested you can find recordings of some of the morning plenary sessions plus the minutes of the Council on the Plenary Council website. More documents for

prayer, discernment and discussion will be released in the leader up to the second assembly in July. www.plenarycouncil.catholic.org.au God Bless.

Pope Francis @ Pontifex “True freedom - freedom in Christ - does not seek personal interests, but is

guided by love and is expressed in service to others, especially to the poor. Love

makes us free, it leads us to choose and to do good, it motivates us to serve.”

Preparing to hear God’s word How would you describe what a rule is? Why do we need rules? Can you name some rules in your family or school?

The Gospel story One of the important men in the community asked Jesus what the most important commandment is. Jesus tells the people, 'You must love your neighbour as yourself. However Jesus took the command a little further. In its original context, 'neighbour' meant only the Jewish people. However, Jesus' mission is to everyone. The command is to love all people, not just our own kind.

Reflection & Commentary

Jesus told the people: Love God and love people. These two commandments were not new. What was new and a challenge was that Jesus put these two commandments together and said that one depends on the other. Loving God means that we have to love people.

On All Souls Day (Nov 2), we not only remember the dead, but we apply our efforts, through prayer, almsgiving, and the Mass, to their release from Purgatory. There are two plenary indulgences attached to All Souls Day, one for visiting a church and another for visiting a cemetery. (The plenary indulgence for visiting a cemetery can also be obtained every day from November 1-8, and, as a partial indulgence, on any day of the year.) While the actions are performed by the living, the merits of the indulgences are applicable only to the souls in Purgatory. Since a plenary indulgence removes all of the temporal punishment for sin, which is the reason why souls are in Purgatory in the first place, applying a plenary indulgence to one of the Holy Souls in Purgatory means that the Holy Soul is released from Purgatory and enters Heaven. Praying for the dead is a Christian obligation. In the modern world, when many have come to doubt the Church's teaching on Purgatory, the need for such prayers has only increased. The Church devotes the month of November to prayer for the Holy Souls in Purgatory, and participation in the Mass of All Souls Day is a good way to begin the month.— excerpts from catholicculture.org, thoughtco.com/religion

Holy Histories… Read all about it!!

All Saints’ Day (November 1) All Saints' Day is a solemn holy day of the Catholic Church celebrated annually on November 1. The day is dedicated to the saints of the Church, that is, all those who have attained heaven. It should not be confused with All Souls' Day, which is observed on November 2, and is dedicated to those who have died and not yet reached heaven. All Saints' Day was formally started by

Pope Boniface IV, who consecrated the Pantheon at Rome to the Virgin Mary and all the Martyrs on May 13 in 609 AD. Boniface IV also established All Souls' Day, which follows All Saints. St. Charles Borromeo (November 4)

Saint Charles Borromeo was born on October 2, 1538 at the castle of Arona on Lake Maggiore near Milan. His father was the Count of Arona and his mother a member of the House of Medici. At the age of 12, the young Count Charles Borromeo dedicated himself to a life of service to the Church. The young count suffered from a speech impediment that made him appear slow to those who did not know him. Despite this challenge, he performed well and impressed his teachers. He attended the University of Pavia and learned Latin. He was praised because he was hardworking and thorough. In 1554 his father passed away and although Charles was a teenager, responsibility for his household fell to him. Charles continued in his studies and earned a doctorate in canon and civil law. In 1559, when his uncle, Cardinal de Medici was elected Pope Pius IV, he made Charles cardinal-deacon and administrator of the Archdiocese of Milan. At the time Charles was still a layman and a young student. Because of his intellectual qualities Charles was entrusted with several important offices connected with the Vatican, and later appointed secretary of state with responsibility for the Papal States. The untimely death of his elder brother brought Charles to a definite decision to be ordained a priest, despite his relatives’ insistence that he marry. Soon after being ordained a priest at age 25, Borromeo was consecrated bishop of Milan.

Eventually, Borromeo was allowed to devote his time to the Archdiocese of Milan, where the religious and moral picture was far from bright. The reform needed in every phase of Catholic life among both clergy and laity was initiated at a provincial council of all the bishops under him. Charles took the initiative in giving a good example. He allotted most of his income to charity, forbade himself all luxury, and imposed severe penances upon himself. He sacrificed wealth, high honours, esteem, and influence to become poor. During the plague and famine of 1576, Borromeo tried to feed 60,000 to 70,000 people daily. To do this he borrowed large sums of money that required years to repay. Whereas the civil authorities fled at the height of the plague, he stayed in the city, where he ministered to the sick and the dying, helping those in want. Eventually, the Archbishop's life of work and toil began to take its toll. In 1584, he became ill with a fever. He returned to Milan where his conditioned worsened. When it became obvious he would die, he was given his last Sacraments. He died on November 3, at the age of 46. He was beatified on May 12, 1602 by Pope Paul V. He was subsequently canonized by Pope Paul V on November 1, 1610.

Jokes of the week—31 October ( contributed by Fr Johny)

Living In God’s Will with Luisa Piccarreta Zoom meetings 6pm Thursdays. Inquiries: please contact Dawn on 0455 130 699 Join us via the link below. meeting id is 77150640515 password is Luisa https://us04web.zoom.us/j/77150640515?pwd=cW10TjFwZnBxRWplMStzeWY1YTEvdz09

1. At an art gallery, a woman and her ten-year-old son were having a tough time choosing between one of my paintings and another artist’s work. They finally went with mine. “I guess you decided you prefer an autumn scene to a floral,” I said. “No,” said the boy. “Your painting’s wider, so it’ll cover three holes in our wall.”

2. On the way to meet my husband at a restaurant, I realized that I didn’t have my phone and immediately panicked. I needn’t have worried. He saw my phone on the couch at home and brought it with him. When he arrived, I checked my texts. There was only one, and it was from him: “I’m on my way, and I have your phone.”

3. My memory is getting so bad, I asked the pharmacist, "Do you have any Acetylsalicylic acid?" "You mean aspirin?" asked the pharmacist. "That's it! I can never remember that word."

4. “I would like vitamins for my son,” a mother said. “Vitamin A, B or C?” the pharmacist asked. “It doesn’t matter,” the mother replied. “He can’t read yet.”

5. My boss arrived at work in a brand-new Lamborghini. "Wow," I said. "That's an amazing car." He replied, "If you work hard, put all your hours in, and strive for excellence, I'll get another one next year." – A motivated Boss!

6. As church secretary, I prepare the bulletin for each week’s services. One Sunday morning, I heard snickering from the pews. Quickly grabbing the bulletin, I found the cause. The sermon title for that day was: "What Makes God Sick” - Father Johny!

7. Did you hear that Santa knows karate? He has a black belt!
