Jesus, this week Your church celebrates the feast day of St. Luke the evangelist.
St. Luke wrote two books of the new testament that gives us information about the
workings of the early church.
Help us Jesus, to really pray for our church and especially the leaders of the church.
Jesus, let us be prayer warriors for our bishops, priests, and deacons as they lead us to
You.
Let us truly see that the Catholic Church is our guide that directs us to eternal life with
You forever.
Amen and Amen.
Thank you Lord, for loving us totally.

This weeks readings and reflections
Sunday G.P.
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?d=10/16/2011
"Grace and peace be yours." -1 Thessalonians 1:1
Paul almost always began his letters by wishing the churches "grace and peace." Grace is the
presence and power of God. We need grace because we cannot live for Christ by our natural
power. We need God's supernatural power. We accept grace because we have faith in the God of
grace, because we have a personal relationship with Him.
Peace in the Bible is not what our culture means by peace. Many people consider peace to be
a sense of contentment and security. The Bible's meaning for peace is based on the Hebrew
"shalom." Shalom means order and harmony. Shalom-peace means that everything is in its proper
place. The Lord masterfully made this world with a physical, psychological, social, and
spiritual ecology. When everything is in its proper place, we have paradise; we have
shalom-peace. Shalom implies repentance for our sins and the submission of our lives and
lifestyles to God's authority. Of course, this can only be done by grace.
"Grace and peace be yours" (1 Thes 1:1).

"Then I will say to myself: You have blessings in reserve for years to come. Relax! Eat
heartily, drink well. Enjoy yourself." -Luke 12:19

Pope Benedict XVI, Shepherd of Truth
http://presentationministries.com/BST/bst2011-09.asp?navlink=latest
Notable quotations from Pope Benedict XVI and official
teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
PROCLAIMING THE GOSPEL
ESSENTIAL MISSION
Attention to and cooperation in the Church's evangelizing work in the world cannot be
limited to a few moments or special occasions nor can they be considered as one of the
many pastoral activities: the Church's missionary dimension is essential and must ...
always be borne in mind.
TOTAL INVOLVEMENT
It is important that both individual baptized people and ecclesial communities be
involved in the mission, not sporadically or occasionally but in a constant manner,
as a form of Christian life.
MISSIONARY REVIVAL
May World Mission Day revive in each one the desire to go and the joy of "going" to
meet humanity, bringing Christ to all.
(Souce: Message for World Mission Sunday, 1/6/11)
