Office Hours: Tuesday – Wednesday, 9:30 - 11:30 a.m.,
Thursday: 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.
On September 27, the Church celebrated the feast
of St. Vincent de Paul, who knew that “God had
sent him to bring good news to the poor.” The
Gospel today is a great example of saying, “actions
speak louder than words.” As you make your gift in
the Society of St. Vincent de Paul or drop food in
the baskets outside of the sanctuary, know that you
are putting your faith into action.
Through your gifts in August, the Society of St.
Vincent de Paul was able to bring good news to our
neighbors in need by providing food for 288 people
(152 children, 136 adults), $ 6,370 for rent, $2,793
for utilities, $630 for furniture, and $150 for auto
repairs. Thank You for putting your faith into
action!
Neighbors in Need Update: We thought you would
like to know the neighbors you have helped truly
appreciate the love and generosity extended to them
in the name of Jesus. We recently received a $100
money gram from a client who said, “Thank you for
being there when I needed you. “

Blessing of Animals
Saturday, October 4, 2014 at 10 AM
by Kevin E. Mackin, O.F.M.
As autumn arrives, people in various places may notice
something odd.
A procession of animals,
everything from dogs and cats to
hamsters and even horses, is led
to churches for a special
ceremony called the Blessing of
Pets.
This custom is conducted in
remembrance of St. Francis of
Assisi’s love for all creatures.
Francis, whose feast day is October 4th, loved the larks flying
about his hilltop town. He and his early brothers, staying in a
small hovel, allowed themselves to be displaced by a donkey.
Francis wrote a Canticle of the Creatures, an ode to God’s
living things. “All praise to you, Oh Lord, for all these brother
and sister creatures.” And there was testimony in the cause for
St. Clare of Assisi’s canonization that referred to her little cat!
For single householders, a pet can be a true companion. Many
people arrive home from work to find a furry friend overjoyed
at their return. Many a senior has a lap filled with a purring
fellow creature.
The bond between person and pet is like no other relationship,
because the communication between fellow creatures is at its
most basic. Eye-to-eye, a man and his dog, or a woman and
her cat, are two creatures of love.
No wonder people enjoy the opportunity to take their animal
companions to church for a special blessing. Church is the
place where the bond of creation is celebrated.
At Franciscan churches, a friar with brown robe and white
cord often welcomes each animal with a special prayer. The
Blessing of Pets usually goes like this:
“Blessed are you, Lord God, maker of all living creatures.
You called forth fish in the sea, birds in the air and animals on
the land. You inspired St. Francis to call all of them his
brothers and sisters. We ask you to bless this pet. By the
power of your love, enable it to live according to your plan.
May we always praise you for all your beauty in creation.
Blessed are you, Lord our God, in all your creatures! Amen.”
Altar flowers (in front of the Ambo)
are donated by Ray and Rosalie Daves
in honor of the feast day of St.
Therese of the Child Jesus, the Little
Flower, for special intentions.
(If you are interested in donating flowers for our Altar,
for Special Intentions or in Memory of a loved one,
please contact LiO Floral Creations at 281.326.1551)

Ministry and Continuing Education for Adults
Because Our Faith is too Rich to have ever Learned it All…
Contact Heidi Clark, Director of Adult Ministry, 281.333.3891, Ext. 328 or [email protected] for more information.
Abortion, In-Vitro, Stem Cell Research,
and Cloning…What the Church Teaches
and Why
Twice monthly, on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays, parishioners gather
for an interesting and informative presentation on what the
Church teaches about a wide variety of different topics. Join us
for our next gathering set for Tuesday, October 14, at 7:30 –
9:00 PM in Room 10, when we discuss the Fifth
Commandment and what it means to respect life. The topic is
based on Chapter 29 of the Catholic Catechism for Adults, and
the discussion is led by author and theologian, Julie DiennoDemarest. Attend as often as you like, whether you have a copy
of the catechism or not. Next up? The Fifth Commandment
continued on Tuesday, October 28: Euthanasia, PhysicianAssisted Suicide, and the Right of the Dying to Live.
How does Christ Work thru Sacraments
and Liturgy?
This new 10-week class focuses on how we encounter God in
the sacraments and what Christ communicates to us through
them. Transformed by a new understanding of sacramental
grace, we’ll be more capable of living a moral, Christ-centered
life. Thursday night sessions begin October 9, from 7-8:30 PM
in Room 1. The class will be offered on Wednesday mornings
in the Conference Room, beginning October 8, from 9:30-11.
Interested in being Catholic?
If you or someone you know is interested in learning more
about becoming Catholic, our RCIA program is just the ticket!
The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, is a process of
prayer, reflection, and learning that allows for the continual
discernment of God's will. Want more information, contact
Heidi, 281.333.3891, Ext. 328 or [email protected].
Upcoming NFP Intro Classes
Free introductory sessions for the Creighton Method of NFP
are taught one Saturday morning a month, from 10 AM to
noon, in Room 1. Upcoming classes are set for October 18,
and November 22.
Upcoming at Silver Linings
Silver Linings, St. Paul’s 55 and over group, invites new
members, men, women and couples, to attend their monthly
meetings every 2nd Monday, at 12:30 PM in Room 10. Join us
for fun, fellowship and food. Bring a dish to share at the
potluck luncheon. Mark your calendars for these upcoming
special events. To reserve your place for a trip, contact Anita
Lee, 281.333.1233. The Galveston Festival of Lights evening
trip is set for November 17th. On Friday, February 20th, we’re
touring the Lanier Theological Library and Stone Chapel.
Then, on Friday, March 20th, we see the Brenham Bluebonnet
Trail and historical district.
Learn about Human Trafficking in Houston
Slavery doesn’t occur just in history books; it’s right here in
our own community. There are more people enslaved today
than at any point in history, and Houston is at the epicenter.
Elijah Rising is a local organization working to end human
trafficking through prayer, awareness, and intervention. As
part of our Respect Life Month, representatives from Elijah
Rising are presenting a human trafficking awareness night at
St. Paul on Monday, October 13, from 7-8:30 PM in the
church. Attendees will learn how to recognize victims of
human trafficking and what they can do to help.
Improve your Marriage Without Talking
About It!
Talking about your marriage DOESN’T work, say Drs.
Patricia Love and Steven Stosny, well-known marriage
educators and authors. Their book, How to Improve Your
Marriage Without Talking About It, teaches couples how to
get closer in ways that don’t require “trying to turn a man into
a woman.” Find out more by attending our next Happy
Twogether book study, Tuesday, September 30, at 7 PM in the
former book store area. Couples do not have to participate
together, and free babysitting is provided when you call ahead
to make reservations. Contact Heidi Clark for more
information: [email protected] or 281.333.3891.
Annulment Information Night
If you’d like to better understand what the Church teaches in
regard to annulments, how they are processed in this
archdiocese, and the steps you need to take to begin the
process, plan now to attend our upcoming annulment
information night on Wednesday, October 8, from 7-8:30
PM in Founders Hall. Anne Bryant, who directs the
archdiocesan tribunal and has a degree in canon law, will be
our guest presenter. There will also be an opportunity to sign
up for private sessions with certified annulment case sponsors.
Catholic…Divorced…Now What?
Session Begins November 10
We are truly divorced only when we let go of our marriage,
mourn our loss, and adjust ourselves to our new life. At St.
Paul, our Divorce Care Group exists to help one another do
just that. This is a Catholic peer-ministry support group that
addresses the stress, anger, blame and guilt of divorce and
leads participants toward forgiveness, happiness and growth.
The 14-session program begins Monday, November 10 and
meets weekly into February. Cost is $30; financial assistance
is available. Free childcare is provided when reservations are
made in advance. The program will be facilitated by Laura
Hicks, LMFT with the assistance of others who have already
completed the program. Contact Heidi Clark if you are interested
in participating: [email protected] or 281.333.3891.
