REFLECTING THROUGHOUT THE WEEK

Assembly and Faith-Sharing Groups
Passover, Jerusalem, and the Temple were central to Israel’s identity; what has been central--persons, places, or things-- for your religious identity?
In what ways have you interiorized your religious identity (“you are the temple of God”; second reading)? Or, how have you come to know the holiness inside of you and of others?
How has Christ become the “foundation” of your identify (second reading)?

Hospitality Ministers
Consider how your hospitality is meant to build up “God’s temple” with the mortar of warmth, kindness, and self-sacrifice (second reading).

Music Ministers
How dies your music-making build up the Church? How does it help the community celebrate their baptismal identity? In what ways does it deepen your own sense of being God’s dwelling place?

Altar Ministers
Consider how serving is a way of dedicating yourself as “God’s temple.”

Lectors
Consider how God, “like a wise master builder,” uses the word to fashion you into his holy temple (second reading). In what ways, and how willingly, do you surrender to this?

Eucharistic Ministers
Consider how the Eucharistic names you as “the (holy) temple of God, which you are” (second reading). How do you name others into this same identity?

Helping Those in Need - Once again the generosity of our parishioners was expressed throughout the past year. A total of $11,620 was donated for use by the St. Vincent de Paul Society to furnish emergency help to the less fortunate. These funds were used to help 133 people with food, rent, clothing, utilities and used furniture. We are not requesting food donations. The envelope enclosed in your November packet can be put in any time in November. This money will benefit the work of the St. Vincent de Paul Society. Thank you and God bless you.
