Men's Hostel in need of belts

We are so thankful for the many gifts of socks and underwear, but did you know we have a real shortage of another clothing item we don’t often talk about – belts! We have over 1,000 men who stay with us at our Emergency Homeless Shelter. We provide thousands of pairs of socks, underwear, and lots of other donated clothing. However, we don’t see nearly enough belts, something that is quite important to a man’s wardrobe. Any and all sizes welcome. Please bring them to the Men’s Hostel at 828 Cambie Street Downtown, but if you cannot then please bring items to the John Paul II Pastoral Centre

Catholic Teachers Needed

The Catholic Independent Schools of the Vancouver Archdiocese (CISVA) representing 40 elementary schools and seven high schools, is accepting applications for teaching positions. Interested applicants are encouraged to visit the CISVA website, www.cisva.bc.ca, to view available postings for September 2018. Our Catholic schools are dynamic, faith-filled communities that provide high-quality Catholic education in our Archdiocese. We ask all parishioners to seek out and invite qualified and talented individuals, those living in B.C., across Canada, and abroad, to consider opportunities in teaching in CISVA.

Stewardship Reflections

“And Jesus said to him, ‘Go your way; your faith has made

you well.’ And immediately he received his sight and

followed him on the way.” MARK 10:52

Faith is believing in something even though you may not be able to see it. Many people think that miracles don’t happen anymore. But, if you focus on the positive, not the negative, focus on your blessings instead of your hardships, miracles

will seem common and you will see God’s active presence in your daily life.

30th Sunday in Ordinary Time

This coming Wednesday is not only the end of the October, but Halloween. I have

included a page 4 to give a little background to that day on our calendar. There are a few things

to summarize about Halloween (and many Catholics and Christians disagree on how to keep

Halloween):

1) It is the feast of “all hollows eve.” This is really important for us Catholics to remember. The

next day is the Solemnity of All Saints. This is the day when the Church gives thanks to God for

HIS victory in the lives of the saints – those known and unknown to us. There are an untold

number of souls in heaven. They are what the Epistle to the Hebrews speaks to us about:

Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside

every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is

set before us..” (Heb 12:1) To celebrate, the saints give glory to God and then encourages us to

persevere in the race to eternal life. If they did it (with God’s help) you and I can do it as well.

2) It is important to be safe if you will be going out in the evening. Some people strive to

“Christianize” this day by either having private parties for their children, or if they go out

having them dressed up as saints. St Sebastian was a Roman Centurion of the Imperial Guard!

Friday is All Souls Day (Nov. 2nd). This is the day when we pray for the dead – those

who have died in Christ and are now undergoing the final purification for their sins which were

forgiven, but for which they did not do sufficient penance. This is a place of great mercy, but it

is also important to recognize that purgatory can also be accurately described as a “waste of

time”. What I mean by this is that all the souls there – while they are going to heaven – are there

because they did not use the gift of time here in this world to do penance, to offer reparation

(for their sins) in union with Christ when they could have. Let us pray for them especially, but

not only during this month. Let us resolve to use our time well, to give thanks to God, and do

penance for His merciful forgiveness of our sins.

Let us complete these days of October by way of sharpening our devotion to Mary. It is

the “Marian key” that holds the answer to ‘how do I get to heaven?’ The answer is by striving

to live the life that Mary did; “be it done to me according to Thy will.” Doing God’s will. We

can learn from her what this means in our day to day life. Pray the rosary every day; pray it …

not just saying it, but, praying it … reflecting on the mysteries of salvation and contemplating

Jesus through her eyes.

Fr. Hamilton

本堂神父的話

常年期第三十主日

本周三是十月的最後一天, 也是萬聖節。我會在第 4 頁提供一些背景資料來談談這日子。

雖然不少天主教和基督教信友不認同慶祝萬聖節, 我想藉此提出以下兩點:

l) 萬聖節的慶祝是在諸聖瞻禮的前夕, 所以天主教信友應緊記翌日是諸聖瞻禮, 不論我們

是否認識那些聖人, 教會在該天感謝天主, 天主藉聖人的一生顯示祂的光榮。天堂裏有不

少靈魂, 希伯來書 (12:1) 告訴我們:「所以, 我們既有如此眾多如雲的證人圍繞著我們, 就

該卸下各種累贅和糾纏人的罪過, 以堅忍的心, 跑那擺在我們面前的賽程。」聖人讚頌上

主的光榮, 然後鼓勵我們堅毅地走向永生。藉主的助佑, 這些聖人做到了, 你我也可做到的。

2) 倘若你準備晚上外出, 請小心人身安全。有些人嘗試「基督化」這天, 他們可能為孩童

安排慶祝聚會, 又或把孩童裝扮成聖人外出。事實上, 聖 Sabastian 就是羅馬御林軍的百

夫長。

周五是追思已亡日, 我們在當日為亡者祈禱, 為那些在主懷內去世, 而尚待淨化其已獲赦的

罪過, 但他們生前尚未為已罪作出足夠的補贖。煉獄是充滿極大恩寵的地方, 但我們也知

道, 煉獄正確來說會被形容為虛耗光陰。

我想指出, 煉獄的亡魂期盼升天堂, 他們要在煉獄那裏, 是因為他們沒有善用在塵世的時間,

懺悔己罪並作出補贖, 也沒有偕同基督一起奉獻給天主。 讓我們多為這些亡魂祈禱, 不單

只在這個月。我們也應決意善用時間、事事感恩, 為祂慈愛地寬恕我們的罪過而誠心懺悔。

在十月餘下的日子, 讓我們向聖母瑪利亞強烈地表達忠誠。聖母就是「如何到達天國」的

鑰匙。嘗試以聖母的方式生活, 依循「願照你的話成就於我」, 我們應向聖母學習, 如何在

日常的生活中承行天主的旨意。每天誦念玫瑰經, 記緊是禱告, 不是背誦, 祈禱是…… 不斷

反思救恩的奧妙和透過聖母默想基督。
