This year of 2015-2016, our parish theme is
I know well the plans I have in mind
for you, says the LORD, … plans to
give you a future full of hope.
Jer 29:11
All Saints is a tithing parish, giving of our time, talent,
and treasure so as to give glory to God.
As the Synod on the Family continues at the Vatican this
week, please keep the Bishops and others in your prayers.
Their discussions on marriage and family life are vital to
the Church.

Today, World Mission Sunday, organized by the Propagation
of the Faith, is a day set aside for Catholics worldwide to
recommit themselves to the Church’s missionary activity
through prayer and sacrifice. Every year the needs of the
Catholic Church in the Missions grow — as new dioceses
are formed, as new seminaries are opened because of the
growing number of young men hearing Christ’s call to
follow him as priests, as areas devastated by war or natural
disaster are rebuilt, and as other areas, long suppressed, are
opening up to hear the message of Christ and his Church.

Jesus was a missionary. As the Word of God, he is the light
of all nations. As the Word made flesh, he brought God’s
own life into our midst. Before returning to the Father, he
sent the Church to continue the mission given him by the
Father and empowered her with his Spirit: “As the Father
has sent me, so I send you” (Jn 20:21).
The Church, therefore, is missionary by her very nature.
She continues the mission of the Son and the mission of
the Holy Spirit by proclaiming to the ends of the earth the
salvation Christ offers those who believe in him. We are
faithful to the nature of the Church to the degree that we
love and sincerely promote her missionary activity. As
teachers and pastors we are responsible for keeping alive
a vibrant Catholic missionary spirit in the United States.

Question of the Week: Do I insist on asserting my
superiority over others? What changes in behavior are

Re-connecting after a business trip? There are typically
two conflicting needs. The traveling spouse might be
looking forward to relaxing while the at-home spouse may
be looking for reinforcements (with kids, chores, etc.).
Connect first by talking, then reinforce, and finally relax
together.

I know well the plans I have in mind for you, says the Lord, … plans to give you a future full of hope. October, 2015
Dear All Saints Parishioners;
I write to you to present the annual Parish Financial Report to parishioners. This report is based
on the annual financial report submitted to Bishop Loverde and the Fiscal Office of the Catholic Diocese
of Arlington, covering the period from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015 (Fiscal Year 2015).
I am grateful for all that so many of you have done. Your generosity and sacrifice is an
expression of your faith in Christ and the Church. Through your participation in our weekly offertory
collections, building fund envelopes, and our New Church Continuation Campaign, we are able to
provide the resources necessary for carrying out our mission as a Catholic parish in worship,
evangelization, education, and service.
My first year at All Saints has been one of many blessings as I see our new Church building and
the renovated Parish Activities Center provide for a variety of activities. These are made available
through your gifts of time, talent, and treasure. We have a combined construction debt of $3,575,000
which we are in the process of paying off.
The teaching mission of the Church is advanced through Catholic education, both in our Catholic
School and Religious Education Center. With dedicated teachers and catechists, this is an important
educational ministry of our parish. We have 543 students in our school (Grades Pre-K–8); over 1,300 in
our Religious Education program, and many involved in a vibrant youth ministry.
We tithe for social outreach. With this, we assist the Medical Missionaries, who have built and
staff a hospital in our twin parish of St. Thomas in Thomassique, Haiti. Other beneficiaries of our
outreach include: the St. Vincent de Paul Society; parish emergency aid; AAA Women for Choice;
Birthright; Seton School; Catholic Campus Ministry; Gabriel Homes for the developmentally disabled;
the Retreat for the Seriously Ill; SERVE (Securing Emergency Resources through Volunteer Efforts);
Transitional Housing BARN; House of Mercy; the cloistered Dominican sisters in Linden, and the Poor
Clare Nuns in Alexandria; Don Bosco Center; Tepeyac Family Center; and Catholic Charities, along
with other charities. Even though we are paying off the construction debt, it is also important, for living
out our Catholic Faith, that we assist those in need.
Our parish yearly budget is now based on a weekly collection of $57,700. We increased our
budget slightly, mainly due to increases in insurance premiums, utility costs, and a just annual wage for
our staff. Plans for FY2016 reflect continued efforts to prudently plan and use the parish’s financial
resources. Our continued goal is to match expenses with operation income. As you read this financial
report of how the temporal goods of the Church were used, I hope that you are grateful to God for all the
good that we do together. It is a gift to recognize God’s blessings to us. Knowing God’s generosity to us,
we can make a generous response to others. Let us be good stewards, giving God the first-fruits of our
time, talent, and treasure.
Thank you for all that you do to make All Saints Parish such a special parish. Together we can
help to fulfill God’s plans to give “a future full of hope” [Jeremiah 29:11] through all that we do as a
parish. You are remembered in my prayer.
Sincerely yours in Christ;
(Rev.) Lee R. Roos
Pastor

Christ is calling us to share the Good News of our faith
with others in the “new evangelization.” To succeed every
member must be a steward of this misison and of our parish.
This week you will receive in the mail an invitation from Fr.
Lee. Father will ask you and your family to pray and reflect
on the importance of our parish programs and our role
as financial stewards. Next Sunday, our annual offertory
commitment process will culminate with an in-pew pledge
of financial stewardship for the coming year.
We realize that each commitment made is truly a sacrificial
gift to God. We can never surpass the generosity and this
is our opportunity to say, “Thank you, Lord, for all of our
blessings.” Remember, a small sacrifice on everyone’s
part will make a big difference. Thank you.

“I wished I knew more about our Catholic Faith.” How
many times have you thought of that? While the ideal may
be to meet with others to learn, understand, and apply
our faith in practice, sometimes one’s schedule does not
enable that to happen. Sometimes, you want to “brush up”
and review something that you heard at RCIA or Adult
Education or any of the other programs offered through
the parish. Now, there is a resource available to you. All
Saints Parish subscribes to Formed. On the web, visit
w w w . f o r m e d . o r g and create your own login credential
(user name and password), using our parish code 16e125.
You will receive unlimited access to all of the program and
supplemental materials, ebooks, videos, and audio talks on
this site. Video resources such as Bishop Robert Barron’s
Catholicism series, and the Symbolon series are accessible
over streaming internet. Our subscription is for the next 12
months. Learn … Grow … Share.

The third season of our parish concert series kicks off with a performance by one of the
Washington area’s premiere men’s a-cappella ensembles, The Suspicious Cheese Lords.
Founded in 1996, the Lords specialize in sacred choral music of the high Renaissance. The
Cheese Lords present a complete Mass setting crafted from five different dead bodies (of work),
sutured together with the threads of their precursory melodies. The program features selections
from Masses by Ludwig Senfl, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina, Jean Mouton, and Elzear
Genet (Carpentras), each of which were first recorded by the Cheese Lords. Hear how a war
song, a love song, a Gregorian chant, and a polyphonic motet can be dug up and reanimated
into..."FrankenMass”!” The event is free, and a free-will offering will be taken. All are welcome!

Next Sunday, we have a display
of beautiful handmade olivewood
carvings from the Holy Land.
These carvings are made by 600
Catholic families in Bethlehem
who use them as their source of income. These brothers
and sisters are enduring hardships at this moment because
of the volatile situation in their home country. Christians in
the Holy Land are persecuted and suffering. Over the years,
the Christian population in the Holy Land has dropped
from being 37% to less than 1% today. Just last year more
than 900 Catholic families were forced to leave the Holy
Land. You can support these Catholic families to remain
strong in Bethlehem and Jerusalem by purchasing some of
these beautiful carvings after Mass. Keeping the Christian
presence is vital for the protection of our holy sites. On the

I know well the plans I
have in mind for you, says
the Lord, … plans to give
you a future full of hope.
October, 2015
Queridos Parroquianos de Todos los Santos,
Mi primer año en All Saints ha estado lleno de bendiciones pues veo a tanta gente enriquecida
por el culto de la Palabra y de los Sacramentos, la catequesis y formación espiritual, las labores sociales,
y tantas otras formas en que damos la bienvenida, hospitalidad y compasión en un ambiente enfocado en
Cristo. Todo esto es posible gracias a nuestro nuevo santuario y el renovado Centro de Actividades
Parroquiales, pero sobre todo por su generosidad y contribuciones.
A continuación les comparto unos ejemplos de las actividades pastorales de nuestra parroquia
que nos permiten llevar el mensaje del Evangelio a muchas personas:

A un costo de $2.6 millones, el renovado Centro de Actividades Parroquiales es un centro
para la formación en la fe y para muchos tipos de reuniones, con un salón grande, cocina,
varias salas para grupos pequeños, y las labores sociales de la Sociedad de San Vicente de
Paul y la Alacena Betania. El centro también permite la presentación de las obras de teatro
que los jóvenes dan cada verano y atraen a personas de todas las edades.

Tenemos muchos grupos de ministerios para niños, jóvenes, adultos y personas mayores de
edad; entre ellos, grupos de liturgia, educación religiosa, Rito de Iniciación Cristiana para
Adultos y Niños, actividades pro-vida, Legión de María, grupos de oración, y un ministerio
para los encarcelados, que dan oportunidades de adoración, crecimiento espiritual y servicio
a los demás. Más aun, los diezmos de nuestra parroquia ayudan a muchas obras de caridad.

Nuestra escuela con 543 estudiantes ha sido reconocida al nivel nacional con el prestigioso
Galardón Azul para escuelas católicas. Nuestros vibrantes programas para los estudiantes de
escuela secundaria y de universidad ofrecen oportunidades de encuentro y crecimiento en la
fe. Y nuestro centro de Educación Religiosa provee formación de fe para más de 1,300
estudiantes con clases en español y en inglés.
Ustedes, bautizados y seguidores fieles de Jesús, hacen todo esto posible por su generosidad al
compartir su tiempo, talento y tesoro. Ahora las deudas del santuario y del Centro de Actividades son de
$3,575,000, y si ustedes pueden añadir por lo menos un 4% al nivel de sus ofrendas de este último año,
entonces podremos continuar pagando nuestras deudas a tiempo y mantener todos nuestros ministerios
sin necesidad de empezar otra campaña para recaudar más ingresos.
Como es nuestra costumbre, una vez al año revisamos las necesidades financieras de la parroquia
y nuestras contribuciones personales. Con la guía y el apoyo de los miembros del Consejo de Finanzas
de la Parroquia, hoy les pido que recen y consideren las bendiciones que Dios les da y cuánto y de qué
manera pueden expresar su agradecimiento donando una porción cada semana. He añadido una lista de
las necesidades financieras para este próximo año para compartirles la necesidad que tenemos de la
ayuda de todos los miembros de esta parroquia. En la misa del 25 de octubre vamos a dedicar un
momento para que todos puedan hacer su compromiso de ayuda. Todos juntos podemos, con
generosidad y a veces con un poco de sacrificio, difundir el Evangelio y mostrar cómo el Espíritu Santo
actúa en y a través de nuestras vidas.
Muchísimas gracias por todo lo que ustedes hacen para que All Saints sea una parroquia especial.
Juntos podemos cooperar con al plan de Dios para darnos “un futuro lleno de esperanza” [Jeremías
29:11] en todo lo que hacemos como parroquia. Siempre están en mis oraciones.
Sincerely yours in Christ;
(Rev.) Lee R. Roos
