Welcome to Holy Rosary Parish

Dear Friends,

October is an important month in the life

of the Church. It is a month of special

devotion to the Blessed Mother Mary and it

is also Respect Life month. You might want

to combine these two priorities by praying

the Rosary with special intentions for life

issues. In Gaudete et exsultate (84), Pope

Francis shared this timely reflection.

“Our defence of the innocent unborn, for

example, needs to be clear, firm and passionate, for at

stake is the dignity of a human life, which is always

sacred and demands love for each person, regardless of

his or her stage of development. Equally sacred,

however, are the lives of the poor, those already born,

the destitute, the abandoned and the underprivileged,

the vulnerable infirm and elderly exposed to covert

euthanasia, the victims of human trafficking, new forms

of slavery, and every form of rejection.”

Through the intercession of Blessed Mother Mary,

may we grown in our respect of human life in every

aspect.

Christ’s peace,

Fr. Bernie

Queridos amigos,

Octubre es un mes importante en la vida

de la Iglesia. Es un mes de especial

devoción a la Santísima Madre María y

también es el mes del Respeto a la Vida. Es

posible que desee combinar estas dos

prioridades rezando el Rosario con

intenciones especiales para los problemas

de la vida. En Gaudete et exsultate (84), el

Papa Francisco compartió esta oportuna

reflexión.

“Nuestra defensa del inocente nonato, por

ejemplo, debe ser clara, firme y apasionada, pues

está en juego la dignidad de una vida humana, que

siempre es sagrada y exige amor por cada persona,

independientemente de su etapa de desarrollo. Sin

embargo, son igualmente sagradas las vidas de los

pobres, los que ya han nacido, los indigentes, los

abandonados y los desfavorecidos, los enfermos

vulnerables y los ancianos expuestos a la eutanasia

encubierta, las víctimas de la trata de personas, las

nuevas formas de esclavitud y todas las formas de

rechazo."

Por la intercesión de la Santísima Madre María,

crezcamos en nuestro respeto por la vida humana en

todos los aspectos.

La paz de Cristo,

P. Bernie

Holylands Arts at Holy Rosary

With the hostilities worsening in the Holy

Land and due to lack of Christian pilgrims

because of COVID-19, unemployment rate

increased to almost 80%.

Holylands Arts is one of the few

Christian Organizations that took the

responsibility of helping Christians of the

Holy Land market their hand crafts in the United States.

Many Christian Palestinians have responded by fleeing

the Holy Land. And, it is conceivable that all Christians could

leave. However, the absence of a living Christian community

is very dangerous for the Holy sites such as the Nativity

Church in Bethlehem.

Artwork will be available in the atrium after each Mass on

November 6/7. By purchasing these engraved pieces of art,

you help strengthen the Christian presence in the city of

Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus Christ, and the

surrounding areas.

Proceeds go to the Christian families (the artisans) who

have been working hard since ages in this type of tourism

related hand-carvings.

For more information,

please visit www.theholylands.org

A Stewardship Prayer for October.

My Lord Jesus, As the rains hide the stars, as the autumn

mist hides the hills, as the clouds veil the blue of the

skies, so the dark happenings of the world hide the

shining of your face from me. Yet, if I may hold your

hand in the darkness, it is enough, since I know that, as

the steward of your grace, though I may stumble on this

journey of mine, you will not let me fall. Amen.

(Inspired by a Celtic prayer)

October is Respect for Life Month

During the weekend liturgies on October 30/31, we

will be remembering those from the parish who have

died in the past 12 months.

The names of each person will be read at all the

Masses and a candle will be displayed in their

memory through the month on November.

If you cannot join us in person, please know that you

can hear the names read within the livestreamed

liturgies on Facebook live @HRCatholicChurch or

YouTube.com at Holy Rosary Catholic Church EVV.

We pray with our parish families who have lost loved

ones this year.

Stewardship Food for Thought

Twenty-ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Weekend of October 16/17, 2021

In today’s Gospel Jesus teaches his disciples that

whoever wishes to be great among them must be a

servant, just as he came to be a servant. Good stewards

know that their “greatness” is found in God, and is

affirmed by a serving heart, a Spirit-filled life, a humble

walk and a commitment to acting in ways that glorify

God. The “greatness” we feel about ourselves is rooted

in a proper view of God in our lives and a proper view

of our place in creation. It is from here that we derive

our sense of identity and our belief that human life is

particularly valuable. Not to be a servant of the Gospel

and others would be poor stewardship. In what ways do

we serve the Gospel in our daily lives?
