29th Sunday in Ordinary Time
“For the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (Mark 10:45)
If you held a mirror up to your life, would it reflect God’s love and mercy? If you are struggling with this, try changing your attitude from “I want more” to “thank you God for everything you have given me, I have enough to share”. This change in perspective will bring you joy through service to others. Pray daily to become less self-centered and to become more God-centered.

October is Respect Life Month and the headlines read:
1. The ‘Equality Act’ has been passed by the House on 2/25/2021. This legislation is aimed at denying the fundamental differences between men and women.
2. The ‘Women’s Health Protection Act’ has also been passed by the House. This legislation would allow for unlimited taxpayer funded abortion nationwide.
3. A Federal Judge, at the request of the Biden administrations’ Justice Department, has blocked the enforcement of Texas recently passed pro- life law restricting abortion once a child’s heart beat can be detected. Coincidently, abortion rights activists in the State claim: Planned Parenthood said the number of patients decreased by nearly 80% in the first two weeks after the legislation took effect.
|
|
The picture is not pretty. Many of us (270) signed the letter to the Pope last weekend encouraging him to take Biden to task regarding his stance on abortion. This is great. What else can we do? Simple, we need to pray. We need to pray to St. Joseph as our model for 2021 Respect Life Month. |

We want to wish a
Happy 40th Anniversary to
Mary and Todd Sterrenberg
CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Pope Francis’ Prayer to Saint Joseph
Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer,
Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary. To you God entrusted his only Son; in you Mary placed her trust; with you Christ became man.
Blessed Joseph, to us too,
show yourself a father

Obtain for us grace, mercy and courage,
and defend us from every evil. Amen.
