KIOSK MINISTRY
Hopefully, a book, booklet or CD from our kiosk has helped you to grow in your faith, to understand the lives of how some of our saints were lived, it was not all that easy, but no doubt, were lived with one thing in mind, for the love of Our Lord. This Sunday, November 1st, is All Saints’ Day, a day to rejoice, celebrate, honor, and praise all the saints, survi-vors of times of great distress, but people of hope. We are all called to be saints. In the gospel reading today, Jesus lets us know, through the Beatitudes, the many ways we can become saints. We each have gifts, which the Holy Spirit can help us develop. Pick one beatitude, work on it in your life, try with prayer to live it.
Some of the booklets on saints you may want to read more about and the struggles they faced are St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Damien and St. Vincent Vianney. It doesn’t have to be a booklet about a saint. The shelves are full of words of faith, hope and love of God. Through love of God and others, your purpose in life can lead you to sainthood. Read the Beatitudes, find your purpose, become the saint God created you to be!
Remember also, Tuesday, November 2nd, All Soul’s Day, for those who have gone before us. Pray for their saint-hood and eternal rest.
God bless each of you on your journey.
With all that is going on in the world, we often feel sad, or even depressed. The words of
this song can lift us up, because in the midst of everything God has still given us a Wonder-
ful World!
“I see trees of green—red roses, too. I see them bloom for me and you.
And I think to myself, ‘What a wonderful World.’
I see skies of blue and clouds of white The bright blessed day, and the dark sacred night.
And I think to myself, ‘What a Wonderful World’.
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky. Are also on the faces of people of going by.
I see friends shaking hands, saying, ‘How do you do’? They’re really saying, ‘I love you’.
And I think to myself… ‘What a Wonderful World’.
* I see babies cry—I watch them grow. They’ll learn much more than I’ll ever know.
And I think to myself, ‘What a Wonderful World’.

ent “venue” this year be-
cause of the pandemic.

ories.
