Adult Faith Formation
Thanks to the team and participants of our first Day of Spiritual Renewal (GOD’S DARE) for the Parish! If you had to
miss it----fear not! The next Renewal Day will be January 14th,
2012! Mark your calendar today and save the date!
The New Roman Missal
COMMUNION: At the beginning of the 2nd century, in the time of St. Justin the Martyr, after the
presider had offered the great prayer of thanksgiving, the people would simply approach the altar to
receive Communion. But quite soon, rites began
to develop to mark this solemn moment, to step
back, as it were, and prepare for the communion
procession. These rites include moments for private preparation, as well as prayers that remind us that Communion is also
a radically communal act. In eating and drinking the Body and
Blood of Christ, we become the body of Christ. The Lord’s
Prayer is sung or said almost every time the Church gathers for
prayer. Even when Communion is taken to the sick, the brief
prayers accompanying the rite always include the Lord’s
Prayer. It’s prayed at every Mass, and it marks the beginning
of the Communion Rite. The Lord’s Prayers is a prayer for the
coming of the Kingdom, an “Advent” prayer, so to speak. But
it’s also a community prayer for reconciliation and forgiveness.
When Jesus taught us to pray, he taught us to pray together:
“US”--- not me. He taught us to look, as a community, to the
coming of the kingdom, without neglecting to ask for “our
daily bread”. And he taught us to seek forgiveness, not only
from God, but from each other: “forgive us our trespasses, as
we forgive those who trespass against us”. For St. Augustine,
these words of forgiveness had special importance when the
prayer was prayed at Mass. He reminded us that, “As a result
of these words, we approach the altar with clean faces; with
clean faces, we share in the body and blood of Christ.” In the
new translation of the Roman Missal, the Lord’s Prayer is unchanged. WHY? It is taken from Scripture: Matt 6: 9-13 and
Luke 11: 2-4. Some scripture scholars considered they should
update the Old English “thy” to the modern “your”. After
some debate, though, it was decided that this English translation—which English speakers have used for many, many years--has achieved a level of holiness that simply can’t be replaced, so the Lord’s Prayer will remain the same.

fundraising efforts. These efforts help our youth attend retreats,
conferences, and other events. It's not a large commitment and
any help you might be able to contribute would be of benefit.

office if you feel that you might be able to help.

Inclusive Ministries
INAUGURAL WHITE MASSES IN THE DIOCESE OF RICHMOND
Bishop Francis X. DiLorenzo invites you to attend one of the
Inaugural White Masses honoring the giftedness of individuals
with disabilities.
The Masses will bring together all Catholics of good will who
have special needs and those who work to support them. The
Masses have the designation of white because of that color’s
connection to Baptism. “By reason of their baptism, all Catholics are equal in dignity in the sight of god and have the same
divine calling”
Our Lady of Mount Carmel Parishioners are invited to participate in the White Mass in the Eastern Vicariate at the Church of
the Resurrection, Portsmouth on October 30th at 5:00pm with
Msgr. Walter Barrett presiding.
SPRED (Special Religious Education) invites you to consider
becoming a “helper catechist” to a special friend this year. We
currently have additional friends who have expressed an interest in
participating in a new group, and we need helper catechists to walk
the journey with them. SPRED is designed to form small adult
faith communities into which adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities are welcomed. This ministry provides a way for
the participants to encounter God in community, in a manner that is
appropriate to their gifts.
Please consider whether the Lord is calling you to offer the gift of
yourself in this ministry. Contact Dave Dwyer at 817-5960 or
Christa Blomstrom at 595-0385 ext. 119 for more details.
Do you have a child with special
needs or know someone who may

October - The Month of the Rosary
October is traditionally known in the Church as the Month of the Rosary. The rosary is a devotion and a sacramental given
to the faithful to help us to understand more deeply the mysteries of Christ’s life and to meditate on them in a way that
helps us to conform our lives to His. The four sets of mysteries give us the opportunity to meditate on 20 specific events in
Christ’s life, each of which is found in the gospel. One legend which has found its way to us is that Saint Dominic was
trying to evangelize in France, but without much success. He prayed and prayed, and the rosary was given to him by Mary
as a simple way to share the life of Christ with others and to invite them to conform their lives to the gospel. Although we
associate the prayer of the rosary with Mary, it is more accurately a Christ-centered prayer. We meditate on the life of
Christ through the eyes of the one who best loved Him – His mother. The rosary is celebrated, especially in October, because of a great military victory that occurred in October of 1571. When the Christian empire was being attacked
by the Turks, Pope Saint Pius V invited all Christians to pray the rosary for the successful defense of the land. In a strategic and mathematic anomaly, the Christians held off the Turks, to which Saint Pius V indubitably attributed to Our Lady of
the Rosary. Thereafter, he declared a feast for Our Lady of Victory or Our Lady of the Rosary. This month in school, the
students are learning about each of the mysteries at age-appropriate levels. We are praying a decade of the rosary each
morning in common and classes are invited to the principal’s office to finish praying the rosary. Several parents pray the
rosary in the OLMC day chapel at 8:15 – all are welcome to attend and pray for personal intentions.
Do not conform yourselves to this age, but be transformed by the renewal of your minds. ~Romans 12:2
