preparation, one party must have been
a registered and active member of Holy
Family Parish for at least six months.
SICK
Please notify the Parish Office when a
member of your family is hospitalized or

of the family, not the hospital, to notify
the parish. Due to privacy laws,
parishioners who are hospitalized must
indicate at the time of admission that
they want to receive communion. Those
who desire continued visits in their home
during convalescence should contact the
parish office.
CATHOLIC EDUCATION
Our Parish School of Religion offers

Pre-K through high school. Session
information may be found in the
Religious Education Section on page 7.
Our parochial school of choice is St.
Charles. You also may choose to
continue your Catholic education at St.
Pius X High School.
STEWARDSHIP
Holy Family Parish believes stewardship
is a way of life. As a parish, we need to
strive to be better disciples of Christ,
supporting and nurturing one another. As
caretakers of God’s spiritual and
worldly blessings, we show our gratitude
by sharing our time, talent and treasure
with our family, our community and our
parish. We strive toward the Biblical tithe
of 10% giving of our time, talent and
treasure back to God: 6% to our
parish, 1% to our diocese, 3% to other
worthy causes. Each one of us is called
to discern what we can give back of
ourselves, remembering everything we
have and everything we are is a gift
from God.
PARISH REGISTRATION AND MEMBERSHIP
Holy Family welcomes all who worship
with us. We’d like to invite you to join
our parish family, especially if
you live in this area. Please
call the parish office or
introduce yourself after Mass;
we want to get to know you.
Registration in the parish can be made
by completing a registration form. A
form can be obtained through the parish
office, from the magazine rack inside
the main church doors or online at
www.holyfamily.com/parish-forms.

SHARING THE GOSPEL –
27th Sunday in Ordinary Time
“Whoever does not accept the kingdom
of God like a child will not enter it.” This
verse is part of a beautiful reflection on
childlike faith. We’re reminded of the
innocence of children, how eager they
are to experience life and how quick
they are to trust. Rarely do we hear it
with the story that immediately proceeds
it. The Pharisees question Jesus on the
lawfulness of divorce! Hardly the sort of
thorny moral conversation one typically
has in front of children. Yet here we are.
Jesus’ response goes further back then
the Mosaic law. “From the beginning,
God made them male and female. The
two shall become one flesh. What God
has joined together, no human being
must separate.” Jesus cites a particular
set of passages from Genesis 1 and 2,
before the Fall in Genesis 3. Adam and
Eve possessed original innocence. How
eager they were to encounter one
another and to explore the garden! How
immediate their initial trust in God. We
no longer live in Eden. As we age in our
fallen world, our childlike trust is wounded
and betrayed. We become hardened to
the beauties of life. We’re quick to find a
way around difficult moments.
In brief, things become complicated as
we lose our innocence. The teachings of
Christ and the Church on sexuality
become more challenging or more
objectionable. Jesus recognizes this in
today’s Gospel. His invitation is not to
compromise with our broken reality. It is
a return to beauty, to the fullness of life
as it was meant to be. We can affirm
our trust in God. We can view life with
gratitude. We can experience healing
of our lost innocence. This is possible
today, now, by grace. Indeed, “the
kingdom of God belongs to such as
these.”

A MOMENT WITH POPE FRANCIS
The Discernment of “Irregular” Situations
Given the immense variety of situations we have mentioned here
[see prior two bulletins], it is clear that no new set of rules that
would apply to all cases is possible. What is possible is to direct
the pastors of the Church to undertake discernment of each case,
recognizing that the degree of responsibility is not the same in all
cases and, therefore, the rules may be applied differently from
one case to the next. This is also the case regarding the
sacraments and who is allowed to receive them, since in a
particular case, no grave fault may exist. In this case, what I
taught in Evangelii Gaudium 44 and 47 [see below] applies.
Priests must accompany these people to help them understand
their situation and be clear in their conscience, and this
accompaniment must flow from humility, discretion, and love for
the Church. We should never appear to have a double standard,
and the burden for this falls on the pastors of the church.
— Excerpts from The Joy of Love
Reflection: What do you hear the pope teaching us in this
article?
Evangelii Gaudium (The Joy of the Gospel) 44:
Those who pastor others in the faith, guiding them in pastoral
ministry, should do so with mercy. The circumstances of one’s life
may have a great impact on one’s ability to follow the precepts
of the Church. Mercy. Mercy. It is the way we attract others to the
faith. This includes the confessional, which should produce joy, not
fear. Affirm every small step a person takes, because God’s love
is at work in people regardless of their failings.
Evangelii Gaudium (The Joy of the Gospel) 47:
When I say that the doors of the Church should be open, I
mean that the doors should, literally, be open to allow
anyone moved by the Spirit to pray. They should also be
open in the sense that our hearts are open to anyone who
comes to us. This is true for baptism, but also for Eucharist. The
Eucharist is not an award for good behavior; it is a “powerful
medicine and nourishment for the weak.” We should consider
the pastoral consequences of this but be bold in our actions.
God gives grace; we don’t.

Together We Grow Capital Campaign News
and Updates: We’re On Our Way
We are happy to report that our campaign pledges and
diocesan gift brings our total to: $3,316,631.
Expansion Plans Underway
At the beginning of the campaign,
parishioners were asked to bring
forward a rock and place at the
foot of the altar. This was a
representation of us as the living
stones of the church bringing
forward our gifts to build our church
on rock and not on sand. Father Phil blessed the rocks and
the work that was before us. Later this month, those blessed
rocks will be placed in the concrete under our future altar.
The steel beams for the church are scheduled to be here
very soon. During the weekend of October 13-14, Holy
Family is tentatively planning for one of the beams to be
available for parishioners to autograph. We encourage
everyone to sign their names, and their favorite bible verse
or personal sentiment. This beam will then be used in the
building of our new worship space.
As always, thank you to everyone for your prayers, faith-
filled support and generosity! Questions may be directed to
Fr. Phil, Marie Relic or Patty Rose.
Pipe Organ Project
Thanks to the many many folks who contributed to our
matching grant for the organ project! We have exceeded
our matching goal and raised $35,391.15! But.... there is still
$20,000 left to finish the project, so if you would like to
assist with this, any amount is very much appreciated! To
donate, go to holyfamily.com, or simply place a check in
collection basket with the memo line designated ORGAN
PROJECT.

Several amenities have been placed on a “Wish List” as we
focus on primary construction needs. Other items, while

Joys and Concerns

Please keep the families of these individuals in your prayers

to this worthy cause. Look for the barrels in
