Have a Blessed Thanksgiving! C.L.O.W. will resume next weekend.
SJ Children’s Liturgy of the Word during 9am Mass
“In the kingdom of God, there are not front-door people
and back-door people. In the reign of Christ, all are
welcomed through the front door, all have a place at the banquet table of heaven, all stand before God humbly and gratefully as children of the Father. In the parable of the sheep and goats, Jesus the Shepherd-King calls us to
see him in the faces of the poor, the hungry, the needy, the lost. Our care for the poor, our work to alleviate poverty and injustice in our communities, our holding ourselves accountable for creating more opportunities for
the under-educated and under-employed is our first and most meaningful response to our baptismal call to proclaim the coming of God's Kingdom in his Christ. On this last Sunday of the church year, may we embrace
God's vision of his creation and our place in it; may God's spirit instill in us the compassion and wisdom to recognize every human being as the manifestation of
God's life and love in our midst.
