Dear Beloved of God,

I want to reiterate for you some important information regarding the Archdiocese’s Capital Campaign. For the past several months, during the Intercessory prayers we have been praying for the “On the Way, ‘Andale!” Capital Campaign. Archbishop Gustavo has asked each of us, both clergy and laity, to give generously to the first capital campaign in over 60 years in the Archdiocese of San Antonio. The archdiocese currently serves a growing population of 2.6 million people in 19 counties throughout South Central Texas. Over the next decade, nearly 200,000 Catholics are expected to move into our area. Our growth as a faith community is truly a blessing! Extensive investment is needed to continue to meet the human and spiritual needs of the faithful in our area. This Archdiocesan Capital Campaign is not the same as the Archbishop’s Appeal, nor is it the same as the Increased Offering program we’ve had here at Notre Dame the past two years. Archbishop Gustavo is asking all Catholics in the Archdiocese of San Antonio to contribute to this Capital Campaign to help make several improvements in and around the Archdiocese. The Archdiocesan Capital Campaign began last year, and has proceeded in “waves” throughout the Archdiocese. Earlier this year was the “Pilot” program, followed by waves 1 and 2. Here at Notre Dame, we are in Wave 3 which begins the weekend of November 10-11. There have been some workshops for priests and parish staff on how to conduct the campaign at our parishes that I and some staff members have attended. We also have a Capital Campaign committee, and many volunteers to help get the campaign going. The Capital Campaign is needed to prepare for projected growth in the archdiocese. There are many areas where there is an increasing population, but the nearest parish is at least a 45-minute drive away. Many parishes that are so far away are also overcrowded in both seating and parking. New parishes will alleviate some of this overcrowding. Other areas the Capital Campaign is intended to address include improvements to church buildings, to help fund Catholic Charities and priest pensions, to modernize Assumption Seminary, and to strengthen campus ministry and improve our Catholic schools. One of the other benefits to our parish is that however much Notre Dame contributes, we get one third back for capital projects here at our own parish. The goal of the Capital Campaign is to raise $60 million to meet these needs. Archbishop Gustavo asks that we all make a pledge to the campaign which will be a matter of making a monthly contribution for the next three years. Let us all make a sacrifice to the Archdiocesan Capital Campaign to support Archbishop Gustavo and the Archdiocese of San Antonio to improve our archdiocese, our parish and to strengthen Christ’s One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church in South Texas.

Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,

Queridos Amados de Dios Quiero reiterarles información importante sobre la Campaña Capital de la Arquidiócesis. Durante los últimos meses, en las oraciones de intercesión, hemos estado orando por la Campaña Capital "On the Way, Ándale!". El Arzobispo Gustavo nos ha pedido a cada uno de nosotros, tanto clérigos como laicos, que demos generosamente a la primera Campaña de Capital en más de 60 años en la Arquidiócesis de San Antonio. La Arquidiócesis actualmente sirve a una población creciente de 2.6 millones de personas en 19 condados en todo el centro sur de Texas. Durante la próxima década, se espera que cerca de 200,000 Católicos se muden a nuestra área. ¡Nuestro crecimiento como comunidad de fe es verdaderamente una bendición! Se necesita una gran inversión para continuar satisfaciendo las necesidades humanas y espirituales de los fieles en nuestra área. Esta Campaña de la Capital Arquidiocesana no es lo mismo que la Campaña del Arzobispo, ni tampoco el programa de Ofrenda creciente que hemos tenido aquí en Notre Dame durante los últimos dos años. El arzobispo Gustavo está pidiendo a todos los católicos de la Arquidiócesis de San Antonio que contribuyan a esta Campaña de la Capital para ayudar a realizar varias mejoras dentro y alrededor de la Arquidiócesis. La Campaña Capital Arquidiocesana comenzó el año pasado y se ha desarrollado en "etapas" en toda la Arquidiócesis. A principios de este año fue el programa "Piloto", seguido de dos etapas 1 y 2. Aquí en Notre Dame, estamos en la fase 3, que comienza el fin de semana del 10 y 11 de noviembre. Ha habido algunos talleres para Sacerdotes y personal parroquial, sobre cómo llevar a cabo la campaña en nuestras parroquias, a los que hemos asistido yo y algunos miembros del personal. También tenemos un comité para la Campaña Capital y muchos voluntarios para ayudar a poner en marcha la campaña. La Campaña Capital es necesaria para prepararse para el crecimiento proyectado en la Arquidiócesis. Hay muchas áreas donde hay una creciente población, pero la parroquia más cercana se encuentra a menos de 45 minutos en automóvil. Muchas parroquias que están tan lejos también están abarrotadas, tanto que no hay lugar para sentarse dentro como en los estacionamientos. Nuevas parroquias aliviarán algo de este congestionamiento. Otras áreas que la Campaña Capital pretende abordar incluyen, mejoras en los edificios de las iglesias, para ayudar a financiar Caridades Católicas, las pensiones de los Sacerdotes, modernizar el Seminario de la Asunción, fortalecer el ministerio del campus y mejorar nuestras Escuelas Católicas. Uno de los otros beneficios para nuestra parroquia, es que lo que aporte Notre Dame, se nos devolverá un tercio para proyectos de capital aquí en nuestra propia parroquia. El objetivo de la Campaña Capital es recaudar $60 millones para satisfacer estas necesidades. El Arzobispo Gustavo pide que todos hagamos un compromiso con la campaña, que será cuestión de hacer una contribución mensual por los próximos tres años. Hagamos un sacrificio por la Campaña Capital Arquidiocesana para apoyar al Arzobispo Gustavo y la Arquidiócesis de San Antonio para mejorar nuestra arquidiócesis, nuestra parroquia y fortalecer la Iglesia de Cristo, Una, Santa, Católica y Apostólica en el sur de Texas.

Pope Francis calls the church to be permanently in mission. He calls for everyone to be a missionary. We can participate in the mission through prayer; an hour of adoration. This hour is a great and unrepeated opportunity for a young parent or grandparent to teach their tender lambs our faith and reverence to our most humble Majesty, The Good Shepherd Jesus. Please join us in just one hour of adoration a week out of nearly 124 weekly hours to choose from. An adorer is needed for:

Monday 11:00 p.m.—12:00 midnight Friday 12:00 midnight—1:00 a.m.

Friday 10:00 a.m.—11:00 a.m.

If you are able to help with this time, please call Veronica Fabro at (830)377-9117. El Papa Francisco llama a la Iglesia para que esté en mission permanentemente. Nos llama a todos a ser misioneros. Podemos participar en la mission por medio de la oración; una hora de adoración. Esta hora es una gran oportunidad que no repetirá para que un padre o abuelo enséne a sus delicados (tiernos) corderos nuestra fe y reverencia hacia nuestra humildisima Majestad, El Buen Pastor Jesús. Por favor únanse en solo una hora de adoración a la semana de las 124 horas semanales a escoger. Tambien es necesario un adorador los:

lunes 11:00 p.m.—12:00 media noche viernes 12:00 media noche—1:00 a.m.

Algunas preguntas frecuentes sobre la Campaña de Capital On the Way - ¡Ándale!: ¿Cómo se fijan los objetivos de una parroquia y cuánto va a recibir mi parroquia? El objetivo de la campaña para cada parroquia está fijado en 1.3 veces su ofertorio promedio durante los últimos tres años fiscales. Las parroquias con un ofertorio promedio de tres años de $ 500,000 o menos, recibirán el 40%; aquellos entre $ 500,000 y $ 1.3 millones recibirán 35%, y aquellos con un ofertorio de más de $ 1.3 millones recibirán el 30%.

Si la parroquia no alcanza su meta recaudatoria, ¿es responsable de la diferencia? Las parroquias no serán sancionadas si no alcanzan su objetivo de recaudación de fondos. La expectativa es que las parroquias hagan un esfuerzo de buena fe para seguir las recomendaciones de la Arquidiócesis y el Grupo Steier en la conducción de la campaña.

Los fondos donados a la Campaña On the Way - ¡Ándale!, ¿reducirán el apoyo del ofertorio a la parroquia? Es importante enfatizar que todos los donativos otorgados a esta campaña no deben reducir otros compromisos de dádivas a la Iglesia. Un donativo a la campaña es un obsequio extraordinariamente generoso, hecho en ejercicio de la propia fidelidad y libertad, para enfrentar los extraordinarios desafíos y oportunidades presentados a través de la campaña.

Some frequently asked questions about the On the Way- ¡Andale! Capital Campaign: How are the parish targets set and how much is my parish going to receive? The campaign target for each parish is established at 1.3 times its average offertory for the last three fiscal years. Parishes with a three-year average offertory of $500,000 or less will receive 40% offertory between $500,000 and $1.3 million will receive 35%; and those with an offertory over $1.3 million will receive 30%. If the parish does not reach their monetary target, is it responsible for the difference? Parishes will not be assessed penalties if they do not reach their fundraising target. The expectation is that parishes put forth a good faith effort to follow the recommendations of the archdiocese and the Steier Group in conducting the campaign. Will funds for the On the Way-¡Andale! Capital Campaign reduce offertory support for the parish? In presenting the campaign, it will be important to emphasize that all gifts to this campaign should not reduce other giving commitments to the Church. A gift to the campaign is an extraordinarily generous gift made freely and faithfully to meet the extraordinary challenges and opportunities presented through the campaign.

All Saints Paul Turner

In designating one day on our calendar for all the saints, the church chooses a time to honor our heroes—the men and women whose example we admire. Coming near the end of the church year, the solemnity of All Saints invites us into the mystery of death and the promise of eternal life. An early tradition placed the festival on May 13. According to one story, Pope Boniface IV (himself a saint) began the celebration in Rome. On that date in 609 he dedicated a very old building as a new church. The Pantheon had been built to honor all the pagan gods, but Boniface rededicated the building as a Christian church in the seventh century. He brought the relics of the martyrs from the catacombs to this famous public place of worship. The parade of relics changed the Pantheon from a place for worship of all the pagan gods to a place that honored Mary and all the Christian saints—and in turn the one Christian God. Eventually the idea of a feast of all saints was transferred to November 1, near the end of the church year. The church honors many saints with a day of their own on the general liturgical calendar, but there are many more saints than those. Since Vatican II, the number of men and women canonized as saints has increased considerably. Although we do not celebrate all their names on specific dates in all our churches throughout the year, we do gather them as one on this day. Secular tradition has turned the eve of All Saints into a kind of anti-festival, a night when heroes of the underworld take command. The Mass for All Saints Day always replaces the one for ordinary time, even when it falls on a Sunday. Copyright © 2003 Resource Publications, Inc., 160 E.

FIESTA DE TODOS LOS SANTOS Paul Turner

Al designar un día en nuestro calendario para todos los Santos, la Iglesia elige un momento para honrar a nuestros héroes, a los hombres y mujeres cuyo ejemplo admiramos. Acercándose al final del año litúrgico de la Iglesia, la Solemnidad de Todos los Santos nos invita al misterio de la muerte y la promesa de la vida eterna. Una tradición temprana colocó el festival el 13 de mayo. Según una historia, el Papa Bonifacio IV (él mismo Santo) comenzó la celebración en Roma. En esa fecha, en el año 609, dedicó un edificio muy antiguo como una nueva iglesia. El Panteón se había construido para honrar a todos los dioses paganos, pero Bonifacio re dedicó el edificio como una Iglesia Cristiana en el siglo séptimo. Trajo las reliquias de los mártires de las catacumbas a este famoso lugar público de culto. El desfile de las reliquias cambió el Panteón de un lugar para la adoración de todos los dioses paganos, a un lugar que honraba a la Santísima Virgen María y a todos los Santos Cristianos y, a su vez, al único Dios verdadero. Finalmente, la idea de la Fiesta de todos los Santos se transfirió al 1º de noviembre, cerca del final del año litúrgico de la Iglesia. La Iglesia honra a muchos Santos con un día propio en el calendario litúrgico general, pero hay muchos más Santos que esos. Desde el Vaticano II, el número de hombres y mujeres canonizados como Santos ha aumentado considerablemente. Aunque no celebramos todos sus nombres en fechas específicas en todas nuestras iglesias a lo largo del año, sí los reunimos a todos en este día. La tradición secular ha convertido la víspera de Todos los Santos en una especie de víspera, una noche en la que los héroes del inframundo toman el mando. La Santa Misa de todos los Santos reemplaza a la del tiempo ordinario, incluso cuando cae en domingo.

The retreat begins at 6:30 p.m. on Friday and ends at noon on Sunday.

Our reflection in a mirror can be a reflection of Mary, Our Blessed Mother, in ways that you may have never considered. What kind of surrender did Mary make to become the Mother of Jesus? We may find that in our everyday lives, in the ordinary, we are extraordinary – like Mary was when she said the most important “yes” ever said. This retreat will lead women in an examination of our lives yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and how to give “our thoughts, our service to one another, our affections and loves, our words, our intellect, our waking, working, and sleeping, our ordinary human joys and sorrows to God.” Our mission is to echo and reflect Mary in our own mirror.

Parish Directories arrived several weeks ago and there are still many families who have not picked up your directory. These directories were sent for families who did come in to take their picture.

There is a waiting list of parishioners who would like a directory and if possible would like to fulfill their requests.

Please, if you took your picture, come in and pick up your book or send someone that would kindly do this for you; their name will be placed as the person picking up the book. Thanks to all who participated!

Los directorios parroquiales llegaron hace varias semanas y todavía hay muchas familias que no han recogido su directorio. Estos directorios fueron enviados para las familias que vinieron a tomar su foto.

Hay una lista de espera de feligreses que desean un directorio y, si es posible, nos gustaría cumplir con sus solicitudes.

Por favor, si se tomaron la foto, pasen y recojan su libro o envíen a alguien que amablemente lo pueda recoger; su nombre será colocado como la persona que recoge el libro. ¡Gracias a todos los que participaron!

The Society of St Vincent de Paul Notre Dame Kerrville is again blessed with your generosity. The second collection was $2,891.00.

The Food Pantry is still in need of soup, canned beans; ranch, baked or refried

preferred and cereal and pasta. If you would like to be part of our ministry and cannot volunteer, please think of doing some shopping for us.

As announced last spring, we will not be sponsoring the family giving tree this year. In makes more sense to have one vetting agency for this event in town and it is the Salvation Army. Last year they qualified 600 families and we 21.

Again this year, we will be distributing small new electric heaters by our neighbors coming to our financial aid office. This will start November 1, unless we receive donations of new heaters and can start sooner. We will only distribute new heaters. We do sell working used heaters in the store.

Another need God is leading us to help with more, is supplying clothing and shoes to the women and children taken to crises shelters. This is naturally very confidential. What we are discovering is the families often come with just the clothing on their back. Usually the kids need shoes and we have not had any in the sizes needed. We are just helping 6-8 families a month with this outreach. We’ve decided to collect and save new shoes in sizes— up to 6 for girls and 7 for boys. Whatever is needed in our community we will try to fill in the gaps. And as always, it is all for God’s glory.

BooksToBorrow from the Notre Dame Parish Library are available in the narthex of the church, near the bell tower door. Marion Worthington tells us about an important encyclical from Pope Francis. Laudato Si’ is good reading for spiritual exercise because the message is “give” rather than “give up”. The consolidation of economic theory, consumerism and environ-mental issues is masterful. However, the underlying message has been ignored or denied by many (including our current president). The encyclical, though easy to read, contains global perspectives and novel analyses of problems which are quite challenging to the status quo. So it may be more fruitful to find and contemplate smaller passages that are personally meaningful than to emulate an ant swallowing an alligator. “On Care for Our Common Home”, the subtitle, reminds us that we are given this planet for all creatures to flourish, praising God together. In doing so, we acknowledge our diversity and learn so much more than when we build walls and so limit our potential.

We are challenged as individuals and as a parish to make meaningful and lasting changes in our lives and activities. Why? To make our common home better for all, to the honor and praise of God.

Fall Blood Drive

Campaña de Donacion de Sangre

In the Notre Dame Gymnasium

Sunday, October 21—8:00 a.m.—1:00 p.m. Photo Identification Required

Join with our parishioners who are regular donors and have seen their neighbors

helped by their life sustaining donations. Due to the short time that blood can

be used after donating, there is a constant feed for new donations. Please

consider giving up a few minutes of your time to provide the gift of life.

Students who may be unable to donate at their school drives due to

extracurricular activities are especially welcome with parental permission for

those under 18.

Coffee, juice and rolls will be available. For more information, call John

Windlinger at 847.312.3194.
