Food insecurity and senior citizens The Office for Social Justice Ministry shared this information: the
St. Vincent de Paul Society’s Voice of the Poor has reported that
“approximately 50% of eligible senior citizens do not take
advantage of their rightful FoodShare benefits…” Please call
877-366-3635 or visit access.wisconsin.gov to see if you qualify.
Vincentian Awareness Month A Vincentian heart is a heart on fire to serve the
mission of Christ. During this special month of
showing appreciation for volunteers, we recognize
the members of the St. Vincent de Paul Society of
Milwaukee. A ‘super volunteer’ of his time, Frederic
Ozanam, and six companions, founded the Society in
1833. Blessed Frederic’s vison was “to establish a
network of charity and social justice to circle the
world.” His vision reached the United States in 1845
and today there are over 120 well-established
St. Vincent de Paul groups in the Milwaukee
Archdiocese. We are deeply grateful for our St.
Vincent de Paul conference members who readily
show Christ’s love to people experiencing poverty,
suffering, and need. In this turbulent time of the
COVID-19 pandemic, they reliably move into action
to relieve distress in our community. They bring
hope to situations that seem impossible, and they
remain faithful to their purpose because they see
the face of Christ in others. In this challenging time
of great need, do you feel a call to grow as a leader
by helping the least privileged in society grow as
healthier, freer, more self-sufficient persons?
Learn more about the Vincentian impact by
contacting Rosemary Storts at 262-366-4368.
All Souls tributes Our parishes will again be making special online photo tributes
for those loved ones who our parishioners would like to
remember this year. If you would like to have your loved one’s
photo included in this tribute, please bring a photo to your parish
office during business hours, or preferably, e-mail it to Theresa at
StB or Margaret at OLGH by October 22.
We will upload the photo tributes to our websites and Facebook
pages after All Souls.
OLGH volunteers needed OLGH is looking for ushers and for someone to
monitor Zoom at the 4:00PM Mass on Saturdays.
Please call the parish office for more details,

Catholic Q&A Question: Are Catholics allowed to visit psychics?
Why or why not?
Answer: It’s part of human nature to experience some sense of
unease and fear about the future. This can lead some people to
seek out the services of psychics or consult horoscopes or turn to
other occult practices or resources (e.g., Ouija boards or tarot
cards). The Catechism of the Catholic Church is very clear that
Catholics should avoid such practices: “Consulting horoscopes,
astrology, palm reading, interpretation of omens and lots, the
phenomena of clairvoyance, and recourse to mediums all conceal
a desire for power over time, history, and, in the last analysis,
other human beings, as well as a wish to conciliate hidden powers.
They contradict the honor, respect, and loving fear that we owe to
God alone” (no. 2116).
Despite the uncertainties we might feel, we are called to have faith
and trust in God, confident of God’s desire for what is best for us.
This means that we are called to surrender, to pray, and to reflect
on how we can best move into the future in hope, knowing that God
is with us. ©LPi

Good stewards must not argue about who is
the most important. Today’s Gospel says clearly
that those who aspire to greatness must humbly
serve the needs of all. Even Jesus came not
to be served, but to serve.

Visit the Shrine of Our Lady of Good Help Join Most Reverend James Schuerman, auxiliary bishop of
Milwaukee, on a pilgrimage day trip to the National Shrine of Our
Lady of Good Help in Champion, Wisconsin, on Saturday, November 6.
The tour bus will leave the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist at
8:30AM. At the shrine, opportunities abound for prayer, recitation of
the Rosary, confession, and guided tours. A private Mass for our
group, led by Bishop Schuerman, will be held in the chapel located
above the oratory. A box lunch is included in the cost of $74 per
person. For reservations and information, contact Amy Nikolai at
414-276-9814, ext. 306, or [email protected].
Priesthood vocation meet & greets Some men mistakenly assume priesthood is not an
option because they have been married, have
children, lack a college degree, or think they are
“too old” or “not good enough.” Sacred Heart
Seminary and School of Theology has been forming
men over age 30 since 1970, and is hosting Zoom
“Meet & Greets” for anyone who might want to learn
more. Join one of our informal conversations at
www.shsst.edu/vocation. Contact Deacon Steve
Kramer for more information, [email protected]
or 414-858-4767.
