Stewardship
The increasing violence in our country and
the hate that has become commonplace in so
many ways in our modern society is a con-
cern to all of us. While we trust in God and
his mercy and goodness, we recognize that
we live in a sinful and increasingly evil
world. Recognizing those truths and trying
to be faithful to our calling, we have decided
to secure our parish buildings during the day.
From now on, please realize that the doors to
our center will be locked during regular working hours, meaning
that those doing business will need to ring the bell and be patient
for us to answer the door to provide admittance to our facilities.
This change needs to be respected and imitated by all those who
use our parish Center. If you have a group function, please see
that someone is available to answer the door for latecomers, or
have a number that people can call for admission to the building.
The propping open of the doors of our buildings to accommodate
late comers put everyone at risk in our modern times. Please be
considerate of your own safety, that of others, and most especially
of our younger parishioners by NEVER propping open a door and
leaving it unattended for a group or individual. Continued disre-
gard of this policy will require the suspension or elimination of
privileges of a parish group for use of the Parish Center. Thank
you for your cooperation in this important matter for all of us.
For those who desire to be able to pray in the presence of the
Blessed Sacrament during the day, the lower church will continue
to be open for morning Mass and afterwards during the day until
the conclusion of evening activities. People are also welcome to
come to the Parish Center and use the Saint Joseph Chapel there
for private prayer during the day also.
Requiescat en Pacem In your kindness, please remember the following deceased
parishioners and family and friends of parishioners who have
recently died,
Melvin Merchant,
Cynthia Small, wife of Thomas Small of our Parish Family,
The shooting victims at Borderline in Thousand Oaks
and the fire victims in California
May their souls, and the souls of all the faithfully departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

1st Reading Old Testament : Daniel 12:1-3 (158B) 2nd Reading New Testament: Hebrews 10:11-14, 18 Gospel: Mark 13:24-32 Our meditation: “And then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.” MARK 13:26 Our response: We will all have that day when we are standing before God and our life is played out like a movie. When this happens and God asks each of us, “What have you done with the gifts that I have given you?” How will you respond?
.Tell Me, “Why … ?” Why does each country have Our Lady as a pa-
troness?
Many countries have individual saints that are in-
digenous to their land, or part of their history or
culture, or worked at evangelizing them as a patron
saint. It is easy to recognize Saint Patrick for Ire-
land, and Saint Francis of Assisi as a patron for Ita-
ly since they are both famous and popular, not only
with the people of these lands, but to the larger
Church as well.
As the mother of our Savior, Our Lady is also
identified as a patron for each country, usually un-
der a title that is assigned or selected by the people
or the Pope. Pope Pius IX assigned the title of Our
Lady of the Immaculate Conception as the patron to
the USA since he had recently proclaimed that dog-
ma as an infallible teaching. Our Lady of Guada-
lupe is an obvious choice for Mexico, the land
where the apparition occurred as well as that she is
designated as patroness for all of the Americas.
This week is the observance of the feast of Our
Lady of Providence. A tender image of Our Lady
with this title was brought by the bishop assigned to
Puerto Rico in the late 19th century who promoted
the devotion and spread its popularity. Eventually
an altar was created in the cathedral in the capital of
San Juan and an image enshrined there. It shows
the Child Jesus asleep as he rests on the lap of his
mother while she lifts his hand and caresses it be-
tween both of hers.
This original feast was observed on January 2nd,
the anniversary of the date that the original image
arrived in Puerto Rico, but Pope Pius XI transferred
it to November 19th in 1920 to commemorate the
anniversary of the European discovery of the island
by Columbus in 1493. This image of Our Lady of
Providence is in the oval of our bulletin cover this
week. It is a reminder of the maternal care that the
mother of our Savior provides for us. Whether it is
Fatima, Aparecida, Knock, Czestochowa, Las
Nubes, or Providence, we all turn to Our Lady un-
der these different titles to be assured of her prayers
and the protection of our loving and merciful God.
PLEASE HELP! If you have moved or changed your phone number
or changed email address please notify the Office so that we may update our Census.
Thank you for your cooperation!

GIFT BEARERS AT WEEKEND MASSES If you have scheduled a Mass intention for your loved one on a week-end and would like to bring the gifts to the altar, please see the Sex-ton prior to Mass. The Sexton will gladly coordinate this with you. If you are bringing up the gifts, please remember to sit in one of the two pews nearest the table so that when the altar server arrives with the
cross, you are available to complete this task. If you sit somewhere else, someone may take the gifts instead so as not to delay the Mass. Please remember to bring the “Book of Intentions“ to the altar with the gifts. Thank you.
Valencia Council 80 Knights of Columbus would like to thank everyone who donated items for the Veteran’s Drive last weekend.

Your thoughtfulness shows the compassion of our Church and community
for the veterans who have faithfully served our country.
A Message from Father Peter Dear Parishioners,

A Message from Father Peter Dear Parishioners,
This week our country invites us to pause, gather with family and
friends, and give thanks to God for the blessings that are part of our
everyday life. While the origin of this holiday is not far from our
town, it took several generations for it to be established as a part of
our American culture and way of life. And while many people see
the holiday as the start to the Christmas rush and the day before the
big sales in stores, it is a holiday with its own traditions and
privileges earned through the centuries. In an age when we can not
pray in public places or make displays on public land on religious
themes such as the Ten Commandments or a Christmas creche, that
we have a national holiday for giving thanks to God should be over
looked or rushed without some attention and appreciation to this
great opportunity. It is worth noting that when deciding on the day
for the celebration, the President chose Thursday because it would
not interfere or favor anyone religion over another: a choice for
Friday, Saturday or Sunday would have played favorites, but no one
marks Thursday as a day of weekly worship.
It is worth remembering that the original Pilgrims had faced a
harsh and bitter winter, a climate terribly foreign to them and crops
and a growing season alien from their homeland. Added to that they
had lost more than half of their original number through difficult
illnesses and heartbreaking deaths. Still in the midst of this
uncertainty and tragedy they found reason to give thanks. Because
for all that they lacked, they had come in search of religious
freedom and they had found and enjoyed that with abundance. For
all that they didn’t have, the one gift they cherished most of all was
the one that brought them to these shores, the ability to worship as
they chose and live by those values every day without oppression or
discrimination.
Our times are so very different from these. We live with a bounty
they could never have imagined from the food that stocks our
markets to the advances of technology that provide comfort, travel
and information beyond their wildest dreams. For all that we have,
we often overlook that great gift that caused them to abandon their
own safety and comfort to come to a foreign and unknown land, to
know the freedom to worship as they believed. This holiday was
their feast for all that they were lacking to acknowledge the great
gift that they enjoyed most of all.
So, while we fight the traffic for family gatherings either near or
far, while we feast of foods that these original observers never knew
or imagined of, while we entertain ourselves with football contests
either local or national, let us not forget or ignore the origin of this
holiday and its importance for generations before us. To pause in
the routine of our lives and recognize in a tough and unsafe world,
one in which a terrorist could be at any corner of our society, that we
have much to be grateful for, much that we enjoy as our bounty
from the generosity of our God. Giving thanks is an important part
of our Judeo-Christian tradition. Let us give thanks, let us reach out
in the coming weeks to share of our bounty, that others might know
the blessings that we do and make our country closer to the
Kingdom of God that Jesus preached and closer to the ideal that
brought the first Pilgrims to this very land.

Did You Know?
Teach Kids to Protect Themselves at Home
We consider our homes to be safe places for our children. But
being home alone can pose risks for children. Here are a few tips
to teach kids that will help keep them safe when you are not with
them at home: Never answer the door if alone. Do not invite
anyone in the house without the permission of a parent or
babysitter. Don’t tell anyone on the phone that your parents are
not home. Instead tell them that your parents can’t come to the
phone, and take a message. For more tips, please visit
www.kidsafe.com. For particular help you may call: Worcester

Oração das mães por seus filhos Mães, orem por seus filhos!
Virgem Santíssima, Mãe do Amor, que nunca desampara as mães que suplicam vossa misericordiosa intercessão. Quando estavas junto de Jesus crucificado,
que agonizava as dores atrozes dos pecados da humanidade, sentistes tuas vestes serem banhadas com as lágrimas de todas as mães, que, silenciosamente, também choram por seus filhos amados. Senhora das Dores, que conheces tão bem o meu coração e de todas as mães do mundo inteiro, que dia e noite suplicam por seus filhos, acolhei em suas mãos puríssimas e ternas as minhas intenções (apresente a Nossa Senhora as intenções pelos seus filhos). Eu confio que a Senhora nunca irá me desamparar, e pelos meus filhos irá interceder junto a Jesus Cristo, seu amado Filho, que por amor entregou Sua própria vida para que nós, por Seu amor doado, derramando Seu Sangue misericordioso, pudéssemos ser salvos. Mãe das Dores e da Esperança, Senhora da Felicidade e da Paz, acolhei em teu Imaculado e Sagrado Coração os meus filhos (diga o nome de cada um de seus filhos). Eu confio em tua intercessão maternal, pois és também minha Mãe e conhece minhas angústias e tristezas, feridas e medos. A ti, Virgem Santíssima, consagro, hoje e sempre, os meus filhos, para que, guardados em Teu santo amor, sejam sempre protegidos de todos os males e vivam felizes nesta terra.
E, um dia, quando cumprirem sua peregrinação terrena, sejam acolhidos por vós no Reino dos Céus (se tiver algum filho falecido, apresente-o a Nossa Senhora), junto a Nosso Senhor e Salvador Jesus Cristo. Amém!
