STEWARDSHIP
“Has none but this foreigner returned to give thanks to God?” Luke 17:18
Most of us live “easy” lives. We have food, shelter and clothing. We go on vacation every year and own a car or two. Most of us take this all for granted. Did you ever notice that people with the least amount of possessions are usually the most grateful? Shouldn’t this be the other way around? Take time every day and thank God for all He has given you.

CROSS-TRAIN YOUR FAITH FAITH FORMATION
PARISH DIRECTORY
Please join us for Monday Night Gospel Reflection. This group meets every Monday night from 7 to 8pm in the Parish Center, to pray to-gether, reflect on the Gospel reading
for the upcoming Sunday liturgy, and discuss how it speaks to them in their daily lives. This is a nice way to keep the Gospel message in your heart all through the week.
Cross Train Your Faith On Wednesday, October12, we continue the eight-week Ascension Press Program “FOLLOW ME – Meeting Jesus in the Gospel of John”, led by Dr. Edward Sri.
In session three – At the Well: Our Deepest Thirst – Dr. Sri introduces us to Nicodemus, and why he plays a part in this lesson as well as the “first evangelist” for Jesus – the woman at the well. He tells us why Jesus takes the route through Samaria on the way to Galilee as well as the significance of the particular well in the story.
We meet in the Parish Center on Wednesday mornings at 9:30 AM and Wednesday evenings at 7:00 PM. “Cross Train Your Faith” is part of the Adult Faith Formation Program here at the Queen to provide programs of study and present information of Catholic learning for the adults of Our Parish Family. All adults are invited to join us. There is no charge to participate, except if you want to purchase special study material available. Registration is not required – just join us. If you have suggestions for future programs please let us know by contacting BobbyAllen in the Parish Center at 215-945-0215 or Andy Pastorek at 215-943-2469.
DEVOTIONAL
Flame of Love Cenacle: The purpose of the Flame of Love Movement is three fold: • First is for you become more Holy • Second is to save as many souls as possible • Third is that God bless the Earth as much as possible

The Flame of Love Cenacle meets every Tuesday at 11:00 a.m. in the Parish Center in the Our Lady of Guada-lupe Room (located on the first floor) for a short video or a teaching led by our Cenacle Spiritual Director, Father John. At 11:45 a.m., we move across the hall to the Chapel to pray the Rosary and the other Prayers outlined by the Flame of Love Movement.
Please come join us in the beautiful devotion to our Blessed Mother dedicated to spreading the Grace of her Divine Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
If you have any questions about the Flame of Love, please contact the Lay Leader, Diane DiLorenzo at 267-718-8278.
THE YEAR OF MERCY
The Jubilee Year of Mercy December 8, 2015 through
November 20, 2016
The Church of Mercy “…a soldier thrust his lance into His side, and immediately blood and water flowed out.” –Jn 19:34 Throughout the ages, the Church has under-stood this moment in the life of Christ as the
birth of the Church. St. John Chrysostom (4th cent.) explains, “Water and blood symbolized Baptism and the holy Eucharist. From these two sacraments the Church is born.” At the same time, we see in the blood and water flowing from the pierced heart of Jesus a perfect symbol of God’s infinite mercy.
In this scene of Jesus’ heart being pierced for us, we find si-multaneously a revelation of the Church’s sacraments and a revelation of Divine Mercy. The fact that mercy and sacrament are revealed in the same moment allows us to understand that sacraments are encounters with God’s tender mercy.
The Holy Year is a good time to consider how much we actu-ally experience this truth. Many times we approach the sacra-ments out of routine, not really knowing why we are receiving them and not really sensing that they have any effect in our lives. But if the sacraments truly flow from the merciful heart of Jesus Christ, then our reception of the sacraments should be – each time! ‐ a deeply transformative moment. Let us spend this time of grace asking God to unlock the power of the sacra-ments for us so that we experience them as they truly are, an encounter with the jaw‐dropping, life‐changing merciful love of God’s Heart. –Meghan Cokeley, Office for the New Evan-gelization, Archdiocese of Philadelphia
How to Live It During the Year of Mercy, ask God for the grace to experience the sacraments as they truly are. Make an effort to be more open and attentive each time you receive Holy Communion or go to Confession. Study the Church’s beautiful teachings on the sacraments. Work on removing from your life the sin that might be “clogging up” your ability to receive the effects of the sacraments. __________________________________________________ Quote from Catholic Tradition: “A final question: what can I, a weak fragile sinner, do? God says to you, Do not be afraid of holiness; do not be afraid to aim high, to let yourself be loved and purified by God; do not be afraid to let yourself be guided by the Holy Spirit. Let us be infected by the holiness of God. Every Christian is called to sanctity (see Dogmatic Con-stitution, Lumen Gentium, nos. 19–42); and sanctity does not consist especially in doing extraordinary things, but in allow-ing God to act.” ‐Pope Francis, The Church of Mercy To continue reflecting on this theme, consider one of these resources!
