Wood Carvings from the holy city of Bethlehem will be here to sell their products this weekend of Nov. 5-6. Their products make a nice Christmas present and support our Christian brothers and sisters in the Holy Land.
Thank you to our Grounds Beautification Committee, headed by Rudy Schwarz, for the beautiful job they did around the rectory last Saturday.
Thank you to the Knights of Columbus who were so generous with their Stewardship of Time, Talent, and Treasure last Sunday in serving breakfast to our parishioners after each Mass!
STEWARDSHIP - Little Seeds Grow Into Better Things: Stewardship asks us, not are our talents big enough, but how do we faithfully use the talents we have, no matter how insignificant they may seem. By thinking our gifts must be perfect, we over-look important ways we can serve our church.

Mary As Queen: A Catechetical Series (continuation)
It is not surprising that the early writers of the Church called Mary "the Mother of the King" and "the Mother of the Lord," basing their stand on the words of St. Gabriel the archangel, who foretold that the Son of Mary would reign forever, (Lk 1:26-33) and on the words of Elizabeth who greeted her with reverence and called her "the Mother of my Lord." (Lk. 1:42-43). Pope Pius XII concluded through his apostolic authority, “Thereby, they clearly signified that she derived a certain eminence and exalted station from the royal dignity of her Son.” (Ad Caeli Reginam #9) (To be continued...)
Please join us Monday, November 7th at 7:00 pm in the Church for the fifth week of Novena as we pray and reflect on Mary Queen of Virgins and of all Saints. Mary exemplified perfect chastity and total surrender to God as the Ever-Virgin before, during and after giving birth to Christ. These are the people who are washed by the blood of the Lamb.
Queen of Virgins and of All Saints, *Pray for us.
In Christ through Mary, Fr. Charez (Don) B. Gringco.

We will be advertising in newspapers, surrounding parish bulletins, and have a banner on our property to invite people to come in. These items are being sold at greatly-reduced prices and we anticipate a huge turnout.
We need your help. Please consider offering your Stewardship of Time to help us "man" the sale that weekend.

SILENT NIGHTS - The Season of Advent is a time of expectation, preparing for the re-birth of the Christ child in our hearts. The Season of Advent is often lost and frequently becomes a time for shopping. We are trying to regain something of that which has been lost. The Quiet! Silence! Times for Prayer! So, we invite you to come here to join us for Advent Silent Nights. What is a Silent Night? Silent Nights are nights of reflection, quiet, solitude right here at Our Lady Queen of Peace. We invite you to come to church where there will be sacred music and candlelight and time to get in touch with our Divine Lord. Come pray! Come read the Bible! Come and just be alone for a while. Silent Nights will be here in church from 7 PM to 9 PM on the evenings of November 30, December 7, & 14. All are invited!
