Dear friends in the Lord: At Baptism, each of us is marked by the Lord and entrusted with a special responsibility to tell the world of his message and invitation. We are, indeed, called to serve as His missionaries. World Mission Sunday affords all baptized Catholics an opportunity to celebrate their missionary vocation through prayer and sacrifice for the missionary work of the Church. This year’s World Mission Sunday, October 20th, marks the 110th Anniversary of our “mission independence.” Through 1908, the Church in the United States was the beneficiary of the generosity of the Catholic Faithful of Europe through the Society of the Propagation of the Faith. If fact, two-thirds of the very first collection of the Propagation of the Faith. In 1822, was sent to the Church in America, making it possible to build churches and schools, educate clergy and religious, provide for the good works of religious communities, and support evangelization here at home. By a 1908 papal degree, the designation “mission territory” was removed from the United States. More than one hundred years later, as we recall our own mission history, we are called upon to assist both spiritually and financially the more than 1,150 “young churches” in Asia, Africa, the Pacific Islands, and Latin America, all of which have the same needs that the United States once had. With this in mind, please be as generous as your means will allow this World Mission Sunday so that the Propagation of the Faith can continue to spread the “Good News” to the growing faith communities of our day. So, too, following the call of our Holy Father, Pope Francis, let us pray that our celebration of World Mission Sunday will generate within us a renewed awareness of the need to proclaim the Gospel to all corners of the world. With prayerful best wishes, I am, Faithfully in Christ, +Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan Archbishop of New York RELIGIOUS EDUCATION NEWS The Religious Education Program is open from 9:30AM to 2:30PM Monday through Thursday and at night from 6PM to 8:30PM Monday through Wednesday. Please call in advance to make an appointment. Registration for 2018 to 2019 has closed. Please call office for more information. (845) 429 – 8824. There was no class on Saturday, October 6th due to teacher Forum in the Bronx and no class Monday, October 8th due to Columbus Day. Classes will resume the following week. There will be two confirmation meetings for parents in the school gym at 7PM: In English, it is on Monday, October 15th and in Spanish, it is on Monday, the 22nd. This is a very important meeting. If a parent cannot attend this meeting, please find a reliable adult to give information packet to. The next parent meeting will be in April. Please continue praying for our students. We all need to pray for each other.

Estimados amigos en el Señor: En el Bautismo, cada uno de nosotros estamos marcados por el Señor y se le ha confiado la responsabilidad especial de decirle al mundo su mensaje e invitación. De hecho, estamos llamados a servir como sus misioneros. El Domingo de la Misión Mundial ofrece a todos los católicos bautizados la oportunidad de celebrar su vocación misionera a través de la oración y el sacrificio por la obra misionera de la Iglesia. Este ano, el Domingo de la Misión Mundial es 20 de octubre, y marca el 110 Aniversario de nuestra “independencia de la misión”. A través de 1908, la Iglesia en los Estados Unidos fue la beneficiaria de la generosidad de los fieles católicos de Europa a través de la Sociedad de la Propagación de la Fe. De hecho, dos-tercios de la primera colecta de la Propagación de la Fe en el 1822, fueron enviados a la Iglesia en América, y ayudo a construir iglesias y escuelas, educar el clero y a los religiosos, facilitar las buenas obras de las comunidades religiosas, y apoyar la evangelización aquí en casa. Por un decreto papal del 1908, la designación “territorio de misión” fue removida de los Estados Unidos. Mas de cien anos después, al recordar nuestra propia historia de misión, se nos pide que ayudemos tanto espiritual como financieramente a mas de 1,150 “iglesias jóvenes” en Asia, África, Islas del Pacifico y American Latina, que tienen las mismas necesidades que tenía los Estados Unidos. Con esto en mente, sea tan generosos como sus medios permitan este Domingo Mundial de las Misiones para que la propagación de la Fe pueda continuar difundiendo las “Buenas Nuevas” a las crecientes comunidades de fe de nuestros días. Entonces, también, siguiendo el llamado de nuestro Santo padre, papa Francisco, recemos para que nuestra celebración del Domingo Mundial de las Misiones genere en nosotros una conciencia renovada de la necesidad de proclamar el Evangelio en todos los rincones del mundo. Con memores deseos de oración, suyo, Fielmente en Cristo, +Timothy Michael Cardenal Dolan Arzobispo de Nueva York

Good News Reflection: Sharing God's wealth In this Sunday's Gospel reading, Jesus asks the rich young man, "Why do you call me good? Only God is good." There's a two-fold message here. First, if the young man truly believes that Jesus is good and that his teachings are good (and wasn't merely trying to win him over with flattery), and if he has observed his miracles and sinless life, then it should be obvious to him that all this goodness is proof that Jesus is God. Secondly, Christ's question offers the young man an opportunity to become more humble. If he truly believes what Jesus says, then he should realize that since only God is good, no one else, including himself, obeys the commandments perfectly. Such a realization should have opened his heart to the truth that Jesus explains next: "There's only one thing keeping you from being holy like God: earthly attachments. To gain freedom from this world and possess only what belongs to the kingdom of God share your treasures." He's saying this to all of us, but he's not telling us to become destitute. To "give up" everything we possess means being willing to give it away. If it's a good thing for us to have because it blesses us, God does want us to enjoy it, but true joy comes from being God's partner as a distributor of his wealth. It's the fullest way to live! And we are all called to live this way. If we remain attached to earthly stuff, we distance ourselves from God and hurt those who would benefit from our generosity. However, to achieve complete freedom from attachments, we cannot rely only on our own efforts. It's often very difficult to let go and become willing to share everything. The good news is that Jesus made it possible by taking our sins to the cross and sharing with us his own Holy Spirit, who empowers us to do whatever he asks of us. Our lives on earth become more fulfilling when we dare to share. The more we give to others in a spirit of love, the more we receive the treasures of heaven. Indeed, we become one of heaven's treasures! In comparison to the holy ways of dealing with life's circumstances that Jesus modeled for us, how unlike Jesus -- how worldly -- are you today? And how divine is your behavior? What earthly treasures have you given away? Decide upon an action that will help you detach from earthly treasures this week. Share the story of a time when you gave away an earthly treasure even though you really didn't want to detach from it. What motivated you to give it away or let go of it? How did God repay you? © 2018 Terry Modica, Catholic Digital Resources, www.catholicdr.com. Printed by permission. To view or subscribe to daily Good News Reflections, visit www.gnm.org.

Reflexión de las Buenas Nuevas: Compartiendo las riquezas de Dios

En la lectura del Evangelio de este domingo, Jesús le pregunta al hombre rico: "¿Por qué me llamas bueno? Sólo Dios es bueno." Hay un doble mensaje allí. Primero: si el hombre rico cree verdaderamente que Jesús es bueno y que sus enseñanzas son buenas (y no estaba sólo tratando de ganarse su amistad con adulaciones), y si había observado sus milagros y su vida sin pecado, entonces sería obvio para él que toda esa bondad era una prueba de que Jesús es Dios. Segundo: la pregunta de Cristo le ofrece, a este hombre, una oportunidad de ser más humilde. Si verdaderamente cree lo que Jesús dice, entonces debería darse cuenta que, ya que sólo Dios es bueno, nadie más, incluido él mismo, obedece los mandamientos de manera perfecta. Tamaña concientización debería haber abierto su corazón a la verdad que Jesús explica a continuación: "Hay sólo una cosa apartándote de ser santo como Dios: las ataduras terrenales. Para ser libre de este mundo y poseer sólo lo que pertenece al Reino de Dios, comparte tus tesoros." Nos está diciendo esto a todos nosotros, pero no nos está diciendo que nos volvamos indigentes. "Abandonar" todo lo que poseemos, significa estar dispuestos a entregarlo. Si es una cosa buena para poseer porque nos bendice, Dios quiere que lo gocemos, pero el gozo verdadero proviene de estar asociado con Dios, como distribuidores de sus riquezas. ¡Es la forma más plena de vivir! Y todos estamos llamados a vivir de esta manera. Si permanecemos aferrados a las cosas terrenales, nos distanciamos de Dios y herimos a aquellos que se beneficiarían con nuestra generosidad. No obstante, para lograr la completa libertad de las ataduras, no podemos confiar sólo en nuestros propios esfuerzos. A menudo, es muy difícil soltar las cosas y estar dispuestos a compartirlo todo. La buena noticia es que Jesús lo hizo posible al llevar nuestros pecados a la cruz y al compartir con nosotros su propio Espíritu Santo, el cual nos capacita para hacer todo lo que Él nos pide. Nuestras vidas sobre la tierra son más satisfactorias cuando nos atrevemos a compartir. Cuanto más damos a los demás en un espíritu de amor, más recibimos los tesoros del cielo. En realidad ¡nos convertimos en uno de los tesoros del cielo! En comparación con las formas santas de lidiar con las circunstancias de la vida que Jesús diseñó para nosotros, ¿qué tan diferente a Jesús - tan mundano - estás hoy? ¿Y qué tan divino es tu comportamiento? ¿Qué tesoros mundanos has abandonado? Elige una acción que te ayudará a desprenderte de los tesoros mundanos, esta semana. Comparte la experiencia en que abandonaste un tesoro mundano, aunque realmente no querías desprenderte de él. ¿Qué te motivó a abandonarlo o a dejarlo ir? ¿Cómo te retribuyó Dios? © 2018 Terry Modica, Catholic Digital Resources, www.catholicdr.com.
