PARISH MISSION STATEMENT
Our Lady of the Annunciation Roman Catholic Parish is a people of living faith rooted in the Gospel, centered on the Eucharist and led by the Holy Spirit. We are inspired by the example of Mary to continue the
mission of Jesus Christ by ministering to all. Annunciation Parish Website: www.annunciationparishabq.org
From the Pastor
29TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
You might say that today’s Liturgy reminds us of the proper distinction between Church
and State. MT 22:15-21 gives us an insight into Jesus’ thought on paying taxes to one’s
legitimate government. While many would like to avoid this duty, Jesus reminds us to
“render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s and unto God what is God’s” MT 22:21. That is to
say that we do have a duty to the State in paying our taxes for the common good but a
greater duty to God in rendering the Lord our service in worship and in love. The
American theory of separation of Church and State was developed in order to protect the Church from government
interference, not to keep the influence of the Church out of the public square. In fact, many of our nations’ founders
were convinced that you could not govern a democracy without the virtuous influence of people of faith and their
churches. May God grant us the strength and power of the Holy Spirit so that we will have the conviction of our faith to
make a positive influence in our state and our nation by standing up for the dignity of every human being and for true
justice for all.
WORLD MISSION SUNDAY
Today we celebrate Mission Sunday throughout the world as Catholics. This is the day in which we
reflect upon the mission that Jesus gave his first followers recorded in MT 28:19-20 to “Go therefore
and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the
Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am
with you always, to the end of the ages.” Some of us are called to travel to the ends of the earth, like our Canossian
Sisters, to evangelize and others are called to pray for their missions and support them with our resources. Whatever we
do, we can all partner in some way with the priests, sisters, brothers and lay catechists who are serving in village
missions, small schools, medical outposts, orphanages, refugee camps and crowded cities throughout Asia, Africa, the
Pacific Islands and remote regions of Latin America. As we are all one Body in Christ, we are tied together as a
worldwide family in need of love and support. There is a growing movement of Catholic lay missionaries, like the
Family Mission Company in Abbeville, Louisiana, which need our support for their efforts as individuals, couples and
families who dedicate their lives to bringing the good news of the gospel to the ends of the earth. While we must bring
the gospel message to our local community by the witness of our own lives, let us support those who are willing to give
up everything here in order to reach those who have yet to hear the good news around the world. Let us pray for the suc-
cess of the Missions and contribute generously to the collection today.
NEWLY CONFIRMED ADULTS
Congratulations to our five adults who received the Sacrament of Confirmation from
Archbishop Wester on October 8th at Our Lady of the Assumption Church. The grace they
received was to become not only receivers of God’s blessings but transmitters as well. This
is truly a reminder for all who are Confirmed that we should call upon the grace of the sacrament in prayer in order to
stir up the gifts God has given the laity for the building up of the Body of Christ on earth. May God bless us all with
holy zeal to transmit the power and the love of the Holy Spirit to everyone!

Did you know that our parish has a ministry called Hearts Afire Parish Program? The pro-gram (HAPP) was developed by the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception and we began our ministry in 2018. HAPP is a bold and fresh approach to small group, parish-level,
faith-renewal programs. It is designed to help us live the complete Catholic life by setting our hearts on fire with love of God and our neighbor.
This fall we begin Phase Two of the program, titled Wisdom and Works of Mercy. The program meets Sundays from 1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. in St. Magdalene Hall. For more information contact Leslie Monette at the parish office or [email protected].
