November 17th, 2019 - Thirty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time

This Weekend’s Readings

TODAY’S READINGS First Reading: Malachi 3:19-20a

Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 98:5-6, 7-8, 9

Second Reading: 2 Thessalonians 3:7-12

Gospel: Luke 21:5-19

GOSPEL ACCLAMATION “Stand erect and raise your heads

because your redemption is at hand.” - Luke 21:28

33RD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME... HOPE, PERSEVERANCE AND TRUST

Where would you go if the world was ending? What would you do? The last decade has seen a rise in doomsday

prepping, the marketing of survival techniques, and a sea of products designed for you to weather the apocalypse.

“The days will come when there will not be left a stone upon another that will not be thrown down,” Jesus warns in

today’s Gospel. On the one hand, he is referring to the literal downfall of the city of Jerusalem. Indeed, many of his

prophecies here have come true over the last few millennium. Nations have indeed “rise[n] against nation[s],” king-

doms against kingdoms. Surf any world news website today alone, and you will see stories of “powerful earthquakes,

famines, and plagues.” Jesus’ advice to his disciples, however, isn’t to build a bunker. It’s to persevere in faith …

which won’t be easy.

“They will seize and persecute you … you will be handed over … you will be hated because of my name.” This

warning, too, has come to pass in the Church throughout history in state-sponsored persecutions and martyrdoms.

Jesus is the Messiah, but his first coming was not a coming of earthly victory. Any disciple of his can expect a

challenge. The coming of Christ didn’t disrupt our free will. Evil still exists and sometimes even appears to triumph.

This does not mean God has abandoned His people!

Jesus reminds the disciples — and us — of his constant presence. “I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking.” In

other Gospel passages, Jesus promises and sends the Holy Spirit upon his followers. The presence of God is real in

our lives, no matter what trials come our way. It’s tempting to be distracted or dismayed by natural destruction and

moral evil in the world. But the Church has weathered greater storms. The sacredness of the human person endures.

We can have hope! This day and every day, we can persevere in hope and trust in God.

with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.

ST. IGNATIUS/DOROTHY RICE SCHOLARSHIP FUND —

NOW IN OUR 23RD YEAR ASSISTING FAMILIES WITH SCHOOL TUITION!

The St. Ignatius/Dorothy Rice Memorial Scholarship Fund assists families who are not able to

afford the full tuition at St. Ignatius School (which averages about $9500 per year). Each year

we help to keep children in our school who otherwise couldn’t afford a Catholic Education.

Over the past 22 years we have assisted more than 180 children from over 120 families!

The average child in this programme receives about $200-$300 per month off the fees, paid by

the scholarship fund (directly to the school bursar), while the child’s family pays the rest.

In return for the help, the families actively contribute to the school and parish in a variety of ways (helping out with

fundraisers, chaperoning school trips, cleaning the grounds, assisting at sports days, serving on committees, etc.).

How you can help:

Donation envelopes are available at the front entrance of St. Ignatius Church or in the church office. Donations can

be dropped in the collection, sent in by mail or dropped off at the church office. If paying by cheque, please make

your donations payable to: ST. IGNATIUS, and in the memo, please indicate “Scholarship Fund”.

Please consider the Scholarship Fund from time to time when doing your charitable work throughout the year!

Many thanks to all those who have contributed to the fund during recent months and during the past several years!

For further information, please contact Jeremy Rice in the Parish Office or via e-mail: [email protected].

include the names of relatives and friends who have died

this past year (or those who have died in previous years

BUT whose name is NOT yet written in the book). ALL

the deceased will be remembered in a very special way at

Masses throughout November. Eternal rest grant unto

them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them.

May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy

of God, rest in peace. Amen.
