Please register online at www.bqonlineformation.org WORLD PRIEST DAY Each year, on the last Sunday of October, Worldwide Marriage Encounter celebrates World Priest Day as an affirmation of the men who commit their lives to the Lord and the Church via the Sacrament of Holy Orders. It is an opportunity for us as laity to thank, affirm and share our love and support for our priests. Our priests are an example of Jesus' love for us and lead us to a deeper relationship with God. They are with us throughout our lives and cele-brate our joys and suffer our sorrows. They di-rect and challenge us to follow Christ and his teachings, and bring us to him by celebrating the Sacraments with us. Without our priests, we would be spiritually lost and in darkness. They are truly a beacon of light in our lives and in the world. World Priest Day is being celebrated this year on Sunday, October 28. Today more than ever, we need to show our priests they are loved im-mensely, and to express our gratitude for their saying YES to God's call. We are asking for your help to make this day extra special for our priests. Most importantly, pray for all priests and for increased vocations. Please take some time to express your appreciation for our priests. To join us in a Novena that begins on October 19th, please go to this website: www.wwmeli.org, and follow the prompts for World Priest Day.

We welcome Milan Damas to our church family. Congratula-tions to him and his family and may God’s blessings rain down on them always.
