Bartimaeus, reaching out to the Lord, offers a helpful reminder that what God has for us is indeed for us. Even in the midst of people attempting to silence Bartimaeus, he persisted by continuing to call on the Lord, the only person who could help him. May all who suffer in body or spirit be encouraged to call on the Lord.

Second Collections for October
Today is World Mission Sunday. We celebrate this day by remembering our baptismal call—to bring the Gospel to all! The collection today for the Society for the Propagation of the Faith supports the work and witness of the Mission Church, as it provides for priests, religious and lay leaders who offer the Lord’s mercy and concrete help to the most vulnerable communities in the Pope’s missions. Thank you for your generosity.
Knights Kickoff Annual Tamale and 250 Club Sales
The Knights of Columbus will start selling delicious tamales and 250 Club tickets after each of the masses this weekend.

Delicious Tamales will be sold throughout the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holiday season. Prices: 1 dozen - $15, 2 dozen - $28, 3 dozen – $40. The 250 Club tickets will be sold through late November, or until 250 are sold.

We appreciate your support, especially in these difficult times.

A Word from Servant of God Isaac Hecker, Founder of the Paulist Fathers
A Word from Servant of God Isaac Hecker, Founder of the Paulist Fathers
"What is the meaning of these many pilgrimages to holy places, to the shrines of great saints, the multiplication of novenas and new associations of prayer? Are they not evidence of increased action of the Holy Spirit in the faithful?" (CA, 30)
If you have asked Father Hecker to pray for you or another person who is ill, and you believe something miraculous has happened, phone Father Paul Robichaud, CSP, at 212-265-3209 x350 and tell him your story.
