PASTOR'S PAGE
Dear Christ Our King and Savior Parish Family,

The sinful filth of the continually unfolding abuse and cover-up scandal has hurt peoples’ lives and has caused many faithful Catholics to feel helpless and confused. Every day, it seems, the web of deception and darkness stretches ever further. Many high-ranking bishops have been implicated, and accusations have even been made to the heights of Vatican authority. It is undoubtably the biggest and most shameful scandal in American Catholic history.

I know many people have many thoughts and perhaps do not have a venue to express them. Many people also have questions that they would like someone to address. And the whole Church needs the reassurance that those who are of good faith, in the clergy and the laity, are standing by the victims and fighting for the full truth to come to light.

To those ends, I would like to personally invite all of you to a “town hall” meeting on Thursday, September 13 th , at 7:00PM in the Social Hall on the topic of the unfolding abuse and cover-up scandal in the Catholic Church. If that venue proves to be too small, we will move upstairs to the church.

We will start in prayer, then I will offer a summary of where we are of the relevant facts, then we will have a time for discussion and open-floor questions. We will close in prayer no later than 8:30PM.

You are not alone, and your anger and confusion are justified. Let’s be part of the solution.

Confident in the love Christ has for His people, I remain

Yours in Him,

Fr. Michael Silloway
Stewardship Scripture Reflection
Twenty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time

The good steward must not show favoritism. The rich may have many material gifts to share, but St. James reminds us in the second reading that God has chosen the world’s poor to be rich in faith and inheritors of God’s kingdom.
