Mystic Monk Coffee & Tea for Sale
The Carmelite monks at Clark, WY are in the business of roasting coffee beans and selling their coffee, both whole bean and ground, to customers nationally. The
revenue from the coffee sales is used to help build a new monastery 17 miles northwest of Meteeteese for their current 18 monks. Their coffee and tea is used at our Sunday morn-ing breakfast. Both the coffee and tea is available for sale at the St. Anthony Gift Shop at the Shepherd's Staff. The coffee and tea make wonderful gifts.
NOV. LOVING MEMORY CANDLES We have “Loving Memory Candles” available for purchase for $6.00 per candle. These candles offer an opportunity for you to remember and pray for deceased relatives and friends. The candles are left in the Church, and will be placed in front of the altar and lit for the All Souls Day Mass on November 2. You may write the names of your loved ones on your candle, and they will be remember at all the daily Masses that week. You can purchase the candles now at the Shepherd Staff office during business hours.
En el Evangelio de ahora del libro de San Mateo nos habla de parábolas otra bes. En estas últimas semanas hemos estado escuchando a nuestro Señor Jesucristo, compartir parábolas por medio de las Escrituras. Interesada mente El Libro De San Mateo, contiene 23 parábolas o enseñanzas clasificadas como parábolas, mientras San Lucas tiene 28. Sam Marcos tiene nada más 9, y San Juan no tiene ninguna.
La primera parábola que escuchamos ahora se le nombra. La fiesta de las bodas de Cana. Es compartida por Jesucristo para nuestro beneficio, un Rey tiene una boda la boda de su hijo. El Rey mando invitaciones y la gente las ignoro o deci-dió no responder. Ala mejor se oye como de no creerse, que la gente rechacé una invitación de una familia rica, de la familia Royal. Para una boda.
Si así es el Señor. Él nos invita que lo acompañemos más se-guido, por medio de las Sagradas Escrituras y los Sacramen-tos. Muchos ignoran la invitación. En algunas ocasiones ni se dan cuenta que en realidad ya recibieron la invitación. Quie-nes están viendo o leyendo esto se están dando cuenta de la invitación. La pregunta es cómo responder.
Que asemos después que salimos de escuchar la Sagrada Mi-sa. Cuál es nuestra reacción asía la recepción de Cristo, asía el increíble regalo de la Sagrada Eucaristía. Ala mejor no nos interesa mucho como a la gente de la parábola, a la mejor de allí salimos cada quien para su lado, y no tratamos de ser discípulos activos, básica mente estamos haciendo lo mismo que Jesucristo describe en esta parábola. En una de las pri-meras platicas del Papa Francisco El Declaro . Vallan hagan discípulos de todas las naciones. No podemos hacer discípu-los. Hasta que nosotros seamos discípulos.
Today’s Gospel from the Book of Matthew again in-cludes parables. We have been hearing the Lord share parables with us throughout our readings in recent weeks. Interestingly Matthew contains 23 parables (or teachings classified as parables), while Luke has 28. Mark has only nine, and John has none.
The first parable we hear today is called The Parable of the Wedding Feast. In this story shared by Jesus for our benefit a king is hosting a wedding feast for his son. He sends out invitations and people ignore them or choose not to respond. It may seem somewhat remarkable to us that people turn down an invitation to a royal wed-ding feast.
Yet, the Lord invites us to join Him on a regular basis through Holy Scripture and the Sacraments. Many ignore the invitation, and in most cases are not even aware of the fact they have received it. Those who read this are aware of the invitation. The question is “How do we respond?”
What do we do after we attend a Holy Mass? What is our reaction to the reception of Christ’s incredible gift in the Eucharist? We may not make light of it like some of the people in the parable, but if we merely go our sep-arate ways, and do not strive to be active disciples, we are basically doing the same thing as those Jesus de-scribes in this parable. In one of his first appearances Pope Francis declared, “Go make disciples of all na-tions.” We cannot make disciples unless we are our-selves disciples.

strophic hunger crisis and many other issues. The non-profit
organization has made significant progress under the most diffi-
cult circumstances possible – but much work remains to be
done.
