St. James asks what our love for Jesus Christ can possibly
mean if it does not result in action on behalf of our neighbor.
He suggests that that faith is demonstrated most acutely in
care for the needy, the suffering, and the underprivileged.
Stewardship includes proclaiming the Good News by putting
our faith into action on behalf of others. In what ways
have we been willing to make sacrifices and renunciations
for the sake of Jesus Christ and our neighbor?

TWENTY-FOURTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Saint Vincent’s Corner
In today’s Gospel Jesus says “If a man wishes to come after me, he must deny his very self, take up his cross,
and follow in my steps.” The cross of Jesus and the crosses of his members can evangelize us: the sick, who
bear illness with courage; the grieving, who hope against hope; the dying, who clearly trust in the resurrection; the
suffering of our poor brothers and sisters who are hungry and homeless, but who still trust in God’s love.
Is there a neighbor or friend of yours who is in temporary need because of a loss of a job or an illness?
Please leave a message for the Society of St. Vincent de Paul…we want to help!
The Pro-Life Place
Be a part of the LIFE CHAIN in Georgetown, Texas on Sunday, October 7, at 1:15 p.m.

Williams Drive in Georgetown. The event includes songs and prayer for the dignity of mother and child, for our
nation, and for an end to abortion. It is a silent vigil, it is a powerful, peaceful, public witness for life.

Renovacion de Fe Trinitaria—13 de octubre
Learning about our faith begins in the home, the domestic

about God and acknowledge his presence in their lives.

Iglesia doméstica. Los padres y adultos son testigos de su fe a
los miembros de su familia y comunidad a través de la oración
familiar y la participación en la vida parroquial. Las actividades
cotidianas de la familia, tales como comidas y viajes familiares
pueden ser la oportunidad de enseñar a los niños acerca de
Dios y reconocer su presencia en sus vidas.
Haz pensado como tu Bautismo afecta tu vida cotidiana? Muchos de nosotros
no lo hemos hecho. Es por medio de nuestro Bautismo que entramos en una
relación personal con el Padre, el Hijo, y el Espíritu Santo. Para muchos de
nosotros esto merece mas investigación. La parroquia Saint William esta
ofreciendo la Renovación de Fe Trinitaria; una oportunidad para avivar y
fortalecer las gracia del Bautizo y de la Confirmación. El evento es el sábado,
13 de octubre, de 8 a.m.—6 p.m. en el Salón Parroquial. Habrá guardería.

CATHOLIC SOCIAL TEACHINGS
In today’s Gospel, even though Peter proclaims the truth that
Jesus is the Messiah, the disciples are ordered not to tell
others. Jesus had to remove their false ideas about the Messiah. Jesus would not be a great political savior, but rather, a
suffering servant who would save us through his passion and
death on the cross. Jesus taught his disciples then, and
teaches us now, that his disciples must accept the cross of
dying to self in order to follow him. Following Jesus will bring
us into direct confrontation with the values of our culture:
materialism, consumerism and a callous disregard for human
life and dignity. Are we ready to carry that cross?
