Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time
“Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s and to God the things that are God’s.” - Matthew 22:21
Everything we are and everything we have belongs to God. We aren’t “owners” of anything, we are merely “stewards” of the gifts God has given each of us. All God is asking is that we give back a portion of what He gave us. This is the essence of Stewardship. God should be our first priority in everything. All else comes second, especially our money.

TEMPORARY SUNDAY MASS ADDED
We have been truly blessed with an increase in attendance at the Sunday Mass at 9:00am. We presently have chairs set up downstairs in the Social Hall to accommodate for the overflow. To help out with this situation, we have added, for the remaining month of October, a 7:30am Mass on Sunday morning.
The following is our current schedule for Sunday Mass times:
Sunday, October 11th 7:30am, 9am, and 12pm (Spanish)
Sunday, October 18th 7:30am, 9am, and 12pm (Spanish)
Sunday, October 25th 7:30am, 9am, and 12pm (Spanish)
We hope to see you soon!

We are prayer warriors. Abba, teach us to pray.
We are servant leaders. Jesus, help us follow your example to serve.
We are a giving people. Holy Spirit, enkindle the fire of our love to give.
Let us pray, serve and give to the Lord…
We give of ourselves, our resources and from our abilities. What are some examples in the Bible?
· Ourselves: the Parable of the Good Samaritan, Luke 10:25 - 37
· Our resources: the Lesson of the Widow’s offering, Mark 12: 41 - 44
· Our abilities: the Parable of the Talents, Matthew 25: 14 - 30
Moral of giving: help those in need, contribute generously, and use your God-given skills in serving the Lord!

Hurricane Laura is another tragic reminder of the suffering that can be caused by natural disasters. Whether these catastrophes occur in slow motion as Laura has or with little or no warning at any hour of the day or night, people of faith naturally want to offer assistance.
Electronic donations may be made to Catholic Charities USA. They and their member agencies respond to immediate emergency needs for such necessities as water, food, shelter and medical care, as well as to the long-term need to rebuild and recover after widespread destruction. They also assist the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops with pastoral and reconstruction needs of the Church. Their address information follows:
