THIS Week’s 2nd Collection is for My Parish
Thanksgiving Offering for the Poor.” It stays in our
parish and goes to help those in need at Thanksgiving.
From the Pastor’s Corner
FORMED.org FEATURED IN NOVEMBER: THANKSGIVING AND EUCHARIST
“Give thanks in all circumstances” (1 Thes. 5:18). As Catholics, we have a preeminent source of our thanksgiving in the Eucharist. In fact, the word “Eucharist” itself means “thanksgiving”! This month, may we be especially grateful for the gift of the Most Holy
Eucharist.!

32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
B ut the wise brought flasks of oil with their lamps."
The foolish versus the wise. Today's parable sets
these two groups in stark contrast to one another.
Two crowds of young women wait for a wedding
feast. One group comes prepared for the unexpected, the other
just assumes everything will go according to schedule. But it
doesn't! The Bridegroom is late, and the foolish virgins are left
out in the dark--literally--while the wise ones enjoy the feast inside.
The lesson here is not just about having foresight and gathering the corresponding
equipment. It's about being ready for the second coming of Christ. Jesus himself is the
"Bridegroom." Traditionally we refer to the Church as the "Bride of Christ" and we, as the people
of God who constitute the Church, are even now awaiting the real feast, the culmination of time
when Jesus returns. But are we standing among the wise or the foolish as we wait?
Jesus tells us today, " Stay awake, for you know neither the day nor the hour." Are we
spiritually awake? Do we have extra oil to see us through, or are we hitting the bottom of the
barrel and running on spiritual fumes so to speak? Do we think it's enough to do the bare
minimum as we wait for Christ--stepping into church without really being present, or calling
ourselves Christian without really taking up the challenge of the cross? In order to avoid standing
outside the feast with the foolish, we will want to make sure we fill our flasks with oil or, in other
words, fill our hearts with the love of God, fill our minds with his word and his teachings, and fill
our souls with the virtues that unite us to his will. If we stock up on these important supplies, we
can count ourselves among the wise!
