Dear Parishioners: — Psalm 95:6 Banners on the telephone poles around Woodland Hills are proclaiming the good news of St. Bernardine’s Fall Festival next weekend – October 11, 12 & 13. Our Festival committee began their planning as soon as last years festival was over! The building of the team, the negotiations with ride vendors, decisions of where to place the booths and rides, the buying of prizes, advertising, manning the booths, signing up the entertainment, arranging of security, acquiring silent auction items etc. etc. is a gigantic task. I have a debt of gratitude to the committee and all the volunteers who give so much to make a success of our special weekend. Be sure to plan your weekend meals around the festival – it will take the whole weekend to properly sample all the delicious foods! Bringing your friends and neighbors contributes greatly to its success. And to all our regular parishioners, thank you for your patience with parking next weekend and your understanding of our need for such a community builder and fundraiser. See you at the Festival, God bless you all. Father McNamara St. Bernardine of Siena’s Annual Fall Festival is next weekend Oct 11, 12 & 13 this year and several committees are looking for VOLUNTEERS!!! We are still looking for help with the silent auction, food booths and man power. If you would like more information or would like to volunteer, please contact Donna Cote at donna.festival@gmail.com or 818-744-0232.

The Magnificat Intercessory Prayer Group will meet in the Veranda Room at 10 A.M. on Thursday, October 10th BOOK CLUB "The Widow's Wars" by Sally Gunning, a book about the wives of whalers (fishermen of whales) in old New England, is the book club's selection for October. Come discuss it in the Parish Library, October 28, at 9:15 am. All book lovers are welcome. A message from our Associate Pastor, Fr. Dan Fox: We Are All Connected Jesus’ core message - that we are one - is surely one of the great mysteries of existence. This truth is so hard to accept because our senses tell a different story: We are separate, different and alone. We need an image to help us realize what our senses cannot. Picture the giant redwood trees of California: They only grow in groves. Moreover, each tree’s roots extend and grasp the roots of the surrounding trees, forming a strong and interconnecting network that serves to nourish and sustain all of them equally. Remember the redwood trees and their invisible, interlocking roots as you discern your vocation. You are not alone and never will be on your chosen path to Christ. -Ann Lang Parish Service Opportunity The festival weekend is a good time to work your volunteer hours. Call Bob Nicholas at 818 710-1662 or email stbym13@gmail.com to sign up for service. Some time slots are still available. First come first served.
