World Day of the Poor/Front Street Clinic The first World Day of the Poor is being observed
this Sunday, November 19. In his apostolic letter
to close the Year of Mercy, Pope Francis
suggested the Catholic Church set aside one day
each year when communities can “reflect on how
poverty is at the very heart of the Gospel.” He
designated this day as the World Day of the Poor
and it will be celebrated on the 33rd Sunday in
Ordinary Time each year.
As part of the World Day for the Poor socks, warm hats and gloves will be collected this weekend to be donated to the Front Street Clinic.
Welcome, Bishop Andrew!
Bishop Andrew Bellisario, our new bishop, will
be celebrating all the Masses here at the Cathe-
dral this weekend. Come to meet and greet our
new bishop at a reception after Mass.
