If a previous marriage has kept you from receiving the Sacraments, we invite you to contact one of the priests. In many cases, we can work with you toward a favorable solution so you can again receive the Sacraments in
the Catholic Church.

Stewardship Reflection January 5, 2020
The Epiphany of the Lord
“Then they opened their treasures and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.”
Matthew 2:11
The image of the Magi kneeling before the infant Jesus and opening their treasure chests for Him is an image that we should all try to follow each
day. In gratitude for all that we have been given, we are called to generously share all of our gifts, not just the ones we pick and choose. God wants us to be generous with everything, but especially
that one thing that means the most to you.
The compassionate life is a grateful life, and actions born out of grateful-ness are not compulsive but free, not somber, but joyful, not fanatical but liberating. When gratitude is the source of our actions, our giving
becomes receiving and those to whom we minister become our ministers.

Around Town... Annual Roe v. Wade Memorial Mass & Prayer Vigil
Saturday, January 18, 2019 - 10 a.m.
Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis & Boland Hall
January 22, 2020 marks 47 years since the Supreme Court decisions Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton legalized abortion in our country. Since then, over 60 million unborn children have lost their lives and countless
women, men, and families have been harmed by legalized abortion in the U.S.
Please join the archdiocesan Respect Life Apostolate and Generation Life St. Louis, and the Catholic and pro-life community in praying for an end to abortion, healing and forgiveness for those involved in abortion, and
an increased respect for all human life.
The Mass collection will benefit LifeLine Coalition, a local network of social service and pro-life agencies whose financial and emotional support help more than 10,000 women, men, children, and families annually.
Mass, celebrated by Fr. Noah Waldman, pastor of St. Martin of Tours Parish, will be followed by a peaceful and prayerful Rosary Procession to/from Planned Parenthood and fellowship at a reception in Boland Hall.
For more information contact the Respect Life Apostolate at 314-792-7555, [email protected] or online at STLRespectLife.org.

WHY IS IT
A man wakes up after sleeping
under an ADVERTISED blanket
on an ADVERTISED mattress
and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas
bathes in an ADVERTISED shower
shaves with an ADVERTISED razor
brushes his teeth
with ADVERTISED toothpaste
washes with ADVERTISED soap
puts on ADVERTISED clothes
drinks a cup
of ADVERTISED coffee
drives to work
in an ADVERTISED car
and then . . . .
refuses to ADVERTISE
believing it doesn’t pay.
Later if business is poor
he ADVERTISES it for sale.
