200th Anniversary of Blessed Marie Rose Durocher: Come celebrate with the Sisters of the Holy Names. This
Merci - Thank you!
Canadian foundress of our Congregation, a lay person and religious,
was prophetic in her actions, taught in her parish, formed youth
groups and involved them in social actions. Marie Rose’s mission
was education and the full development of the human person. She
was always concerned about the poor, disadvantaged and inspired us
to be Gospel Women for liberating action. Please join us on October
6th at Assumption Church, Windsor, for 6:30 pm Eucharist.
The second son in today’s Gospel said he would do
his father’s will but did not. Initially, the first son
balked at the request, but then repented and did as
he was asked. How do you respond to God’s will in
your life? To what service is God calling you?
Good stewards joyfully and generously respond to
the personal vocations to which they are called.

Holy Land Wood Art:
The main income for the
Christian community of Bethlehem is selling their hand
crafted olive wood religious items to the pilgrims who visit
the area. The past few years have been extremely hard for
the community as a result of declining tourism. Some Christians responded by fleeing the Holy Land, and the absence of
a living Christian community is very dangerous for the Holy
Sites such as the Church of the Nativity.
On Oct. 8th & 9th, we will be having some of their beautiful art held for sale in an effort to strengthen the Christian
presence in the Holy Land.
Sunday School: Children ages 4 to 7 years are welcome to attend Sunday School at the 11 am mass. Registrations are still being accepted. We welcome all our students
and hope you have a wonderful year.
Teachers and helpers are still needed. Please see Jody or
