The Sacrament of Reconciliation: Confessions are heard each week on Saturday at the Church (SR #46) from

3:45pm to 4:45pm or by calling the parish office to make an appointment with a priest. Learn more about this

beautiful sacrament by visiting our website: www.allsoulssanford.org/reconciliation

The Sacrament of Baptism: Call the parish office to learn the necessary requirements and make an appointment

with Fr. Kenneth Metz to have your child baptized. Ask us about the requirements for Godparents.

The Sacrament of Marriage: Getting married? Congratulations! The process of being married in the Catholic

Church could take between 6 months to a year to complete. Please contact Ann Cammarata at the parish office as

soon as possible after your engagement if you would like to be married at All Souls Catholic Church.

Anointing of the Sick: Please call the parish office. The Rite of Anointing tells us there is no need to wait until a person

is at the point of death to receive the Sacrament. Did you know that the Sacrament may be repeated if the person

becomes sick again? A person should be anointed before surgery when a dangerous illness is the reason for the

intervention.

Eucharistic Ministry to the Sick and Homebound: If you are unable to attend Mass, please call the parish office so

we may assist you in having a visit from one of our ministers or one of our priests.

Catholic Funeral and Burial: Please call the parish office or have the funeral home director contact us to arrange

the Funeral Mass and for more information about burial at All Souls Catholic Cemetery.

Scripture Reflection

23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time

"Anyone of you who does not renounce all his possessions cannot be my disciple." It's a modern misconception to think of Jesus as the ultimate nice guy who only said things that everybody loved to hear. Of course Jesus is the perfect model of charity and compassion, but he also gave some very challenging teachings. Today's Gospel is a case in point. Not many people are thrilled by Christ's lesson today that insists God MUST be first in our lives. Few are those who love to hear this instruction to renounce our beloved things as well as our beloved relationships. But Jesus does not mince words. We are to "hate" our "father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters," and even our own life. It's important to understand that the use of the word "hate" here does not mean to despise anyone or treat them unkindly. It means rather to prefer something--or Someone--else, namely, God, to these important relationships. Taken in the context of the Gospel as a whole it is clear that Jesus is not advocating cruelty or animosity. On the contrary, just a few weeks ago we heard from Luke 10:27 as Jesus instructed us to love our neighbors as ourselves. However, in putting God first, inevitably something else must take second place. It is a kind of hatred of family, self, and "stuff" when we don't allow these things to become mini-gods in our lives. Instead, we keep God as God. What does this mean for us? It means not allowing a family member to prevent us from practicing our faith to the fullest, and also not putting our trust in gadgets and gizmos. It means, instead, putting all our trust in God, whatever the cost may be. LPI, Inc.

23º Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario

Con referencia a las lecturas de este domingo el Papa Francisco nos dice que "Decidir seguirlo a Él, nuestro Maestro y Señor que se ha hecho Siervo de todos, exige caminar detrás de Él y escucharlo atentamente en su Palabra --acordaos de leer todos los días un pasaje del Evangelio-- y en los Sacramentos" (Ángelus de 13 de septiembre de 2015). El Papa nos recomienda que para ser discípulo de Cristo, debemos de practicar tres actitudes concretas. La primera es la disponibilidad, ser materia dispuesta y dejar todo a segundo plano, hasta la propia vida para alcanzar la meta del Reino desde aquí en la tierra. La exigencia es recompensada con la amistad y cercanía íntima con Jesús. La segunda es renunciar a nosotros mismos y tomar la cruz para seguirlo. La cruz nos acerca a Jesús, y nos brinda la oportunidad de acompañarlo en la vida cotidiana. La última condición es la renuncia de los propios bienes, compartiendo lo que tenemos con los más necesitados. Seguir a Jesucristo no es fácil, pero nunca nos faltara su ayuda. ¿Crees esto? ¿Cuál de las tres actitudes te parece más difícil? ¿Cuál es la más fácil? San Pablo nos ayuda a comprender estas actitudes llevando a cabo la caridad cristiana: "... a fin de que lo recuperaras [a Onésimo] para siempre, pero ya no como esclavo, sino como algo mejor que un esclavo, como hermano amadísimo". La enseñanza es amar como Cristo nos ha

amado. ¿Lo haremos? Las limitaciones del ser humano son muchas pero, si se abre el corazón a la sabiduría divina y al Santo Espíritu de Dios, todo puede ser superado. LPI, Inc.

"You were created on purpose for a purpose." That may sound like pop psychology gibberish to you at first, but it is the truth. Modern studies into strengths and gifts, along with constantly new understandings of the complex wonder of DNA, lead us to conclude that each human being is truly

unique. You hold within you a unique set of gifts that cannot be duplicated in the same way by another. What your parents may have told you about snowflakes growing up holds true for people too: No two are exactly alike. However, we often live our lives in such a way that gives testimony to a falsity, that is, anybody can do just about any job. Positions in the workforce and in our parishes are filled with people who only fulfill one requirement for the job: they have warm bodies. (Meaning, they are not dead.) There are two realities that create this problem. First, we ask people to do things they are not equipped to do. We tell them to work harder at it and eventually they will get it. But I can guarantee that no matter how hard I try, I will not be able to lead an NBA team to a title. Sounds ludicrous on that level. But I assure you, it is no more ludicrous than asking someone that doesn't really like children to teach elementary catechesis. Second, we ourselves sometimes believe that we have nothing special to offer. We go through life having no idea what our gifts are and how to give of them. We take dead-end jobs and rarely share ourselves with the community. But you may just be the answer to a business or parish problem that, to some, seems unsolvable. On this Labor Day weekend, thank God for the gifts you have received. Use them to elevate your labor, both in the workplace and in the parish. If you don't know how, there is help out there. You are not like everybody else. God has given you a purpose. Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS

Often people attend Mass at All Souls for several years, but never register. Registering here is a declaration of your desire to be part of a Catholic community and to make a commitment to the life of All Souls Church.

Being a registered parishioner makes the process much easier when it is time for infant baptism, school or religious education registration, weddings, when asked to be a baptismal or confirmation sponsor, and even funerals. A registered parishioner receives all parish mailings, too. Church law advises that territories or boundaries no longer limit parish registration. All Souls accepts anyone who wants to share in the life of the parish regardless of where they live. In order to register, you need to complete a registration card. These may be found in the narthex of the church or chapel, the parish office during the week or online at our parish website: www.allsoulssanford.org. Why not sign up today?

Charles Schneider 1995 Prayer for our Deceased Priests: O God, you raised your servants, to the sacred priesthood of Jesus Christ, according to the Order of Melchisedech, giving them the sublime power to offer the Eternal Sacrifice, to bring the Body and Blood of your Son Jesus Christ down upon the altar, and to absolve the sins of men in your own Holy Name. We beseech you to reward their faithfulness and to forget their faults, admitting them speedily into your holy Presence, there to enjoy forever the recompense of their labors. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

LIVE THE LITURGY - INSPIRATION FOR THE WEEK: Understanding God's ways and intentions is very difficult. We even have difficulty grasping the complexities of human existence! We need God's wisdom and the guidance of the Holy Spirit in order to walk straight on the path of discipleship. Even as we seek God's wisdom and guidance, are we really prepared to pay the possible price of discipleship? Making a choice to follow the Lord requires much preparation and assessment. LPI, Inc.

...at the 9:30 am Mass…If you have ever thought about singing in the choir, this is an open invitation to sing with the group for the next week September 11) at the 9:30 am Mass. Singers must be 10th grade age
