Project Renew 2018 has been revised to replace the existing parish center rather than a parish center addition to the church. Fr. Mike and other parish leaders will be in Winona on November 20, to present the new plan to Bishop Quinn and the College of Consultors. It would be great to show the Bishop and his advisors that we are continuing to raise funds and getting close to goal. If you haven’t yet made a gift or pledge, now is the time.
Thank you.

EMOHC: Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion
As we edge closer to the closing of the liturgical year, the Church selects readings that remind us of the final close: the second coming of Christ.
It's easy, perhaps, to forget that this is a dogma of our Catholic faith. We see this dramatic end times language in today's Gospel. "The sun will be
darkened ... and the stars will be falling from the sky."
As Christians and as human beings, we know all things will come to an end. "But of that day or hour, no one knows." The "end of the world" and end of time at Jesus' coming is in a future unknown. But God has given us beautiful reminders of this truth. We see the signs and symbols of ending all around us -- nightfall at the end of each day; the life cycle of crops coming alive, bearing fruit, and being harvested; our own death. That, too, will come at an unknown day and hour. But that is the way of things.
Even as God created in Genesis, He gave us a sense of time -- the sun rising and setting, a beginning and an end -- to mark our days.
So how do we welcome these built-in forms of measurement? Do we take time to quietly recollect at the end of each day? Do we see every morning as a fresh start for mercies new? Do we observe the seasons and reflect on what they might be speaking to us of God and His glory?
"Heaven and earth will pass away, but my works will not pass away." The little beginnings and little ends are opportunities to renew our faith in Jesus, if only we have the eyes to see!
Prayer for Vocations
God our Father, You made each of us
to use our gifts in the Body of Christ.
We ask that you inspire
young people whom you call to priesthood and consecrated life to courageously follow Your will.
Send workers into Your great harvest so that the Gospel is preached, the poor are served with love, the suffering are comforted, and Your people are strengthened by the sacraments.
We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

Often it uses a gmail address like:

Please know that this is fraudulent activity and we are working with IT specialists, banking officials, and law enforcement to deal with this problem which is more common than we think.

Congratulations to Rhett Oelke of St. Ann Parish who achieved the honor of Eagle Scout.
Bonnerup Funeral Service will offer an event for Survivors of Suicide Loss from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM on Saturday, November 17, at 2210 E. Main Street in Albert Lea. The program features an American Foundation for Suicide Prevention documentary of “A Daughter’s Journey” that follows a young adult through her story of milestones, family coping and positive growth after the loss of her father. This year’s film shares hope, connection and resilience in the aftermath of a suicide loss. The intent is that survivors will know they are not alone and can find hope, meaning and even joy after losing a loved one. There is no cost for this event. You do not need to stay for the entire event if you are unable to do so. Register by calling 507.373.2461 or by email:
judy@bonnerupfuneralservice.com Additional information is available at:

SURVIVORS OF SUICIDE DAY PORNOGRAPHY AWARENESS

www.ReclaimSexualHealth.com to begin a journey of healing. There is a lot of information available at www.EndSexualExploitation.org. Please join the growing movement!

The ancient Greek dramatist, Euripides, wrote, "No one can confidently say that he will still be living tomorrow." We seldom focus on that reality and often act like we are confident of a tomorrow. However, we all know names of those who died suddenly, maybe in tragedy or simply in the quiet of sleep. Calling those names to mind will probably still not force most of us to contemplate our own mortality tonight before placing our head on the pillow, but
perhaps it should.
We don't need to obsess about dying or fear the unknown, but realizing the gift of today and reflecting on the possibility that it may be our last day can cause us to act differently. We might forgive more easily, argue less, and embrace one another.
Rather than procrastinate, we might act now. We could become more mindful of our surroundings, see the needs in people, and reach out to those who are lost.
I write these Everyday Stewardship reflections every Sunday. You might read them in your parish bulletin, on a website, or in social media every Sunday. Just in case this is the last Sunday you ever have a chance to read these reflections, what is God calling you to do now before it's too late. If you are still here next Sunday after taking all this seriously, you might wonder at what it was to live more fully and to give of yourself more freely. Don't let a single day pass you by without truly loving others and your God. One thing you can be confident about: This day will never come again.
--Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS
