The call to live God’s life NOW and join him at his banquet
table is the single most important reality of our lives. Are we
le ng the cares of this world distract us from hearing,
accep ng and living his Word?

It is dangerous for people to put off the important with some
vague idea of doing it ‘later’. When ‘later’ comes, they are
never ready, for their lives have been shaped and organized
without any room for it. We need to pay a en on to what is
truly valuable in our lives - our family, friends, health,
principles, meaning - and the source of all these things, Jesus
Christ. Are ‘urgent’ concerns pu ng us in danger of being
indiffer-ent to God’s call to the fullness of life?

A Ques on: Is there something important that you have
kept pu ng off un l ‘later’? Is it actually that important to
you? If so, what are you doing today to be ready for it, or to
help make it come about sooner rather than ‘later’ - or
never?

Thanksgiving: Giving thanks for what we have is so
important that we have even a civic holiday - a day for no
other purpose than to stop, recognize and be grateful for our
blessings. Some people -are very aware of the abun-dance,
freedom and security we enjoy. They may not need a special
day, but the rest of us do. We give thanks to God by sharing
our abundance with the less fortunate; by gathering together
with family and friends to celebrate what we have and are; by
taking the me to relax and praise the goodness of God.
Thursday 9:00 a.m. (Coffee following Mass)
Friday 9:30 a.m.
1st Saturday of the month 9:00 a.m.
Weekend Mass Schedule at St. Monica Church:
Saturday 5:00 p.m.
Open To God: As we give thanks, we grow closer to God,
more aware of his love. Our faith will increase. And we will be
more able to call on the Lord to help us remove from our lives
anything that is a barrier to his loving presence.
Sunday 9:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m. & 7:00 p.m.
Please remember in your prayers…
those who are sick at this me.
For those who celebrate this weekend, may the love of Jesus
Christ be your joy and confidence; for others, may it be your
strength and consola on.

St. Monica & St. Andrew Golf Tournament
Dinner A Success making $3500
On Sept 13th, 2014 the annual St. Monica Golf Tournament
was unfortunately rained out (players all got rain checks)
however, the Golf Dinner did proceed and it was a big social
and charity success! There were fun ice-breaker games by
Mary Armstrong, to help meet new friends, a great roast
beef dinner, door prizes by Felice Miranda and lots of fun.
With raffles of donated prizes and an auction run by Peter
Ruiter the tournament this year raised over $3500. This
money will be used for charitable causes in our parish,
thanks be to God. Many thanks go to all the folks on the
golf committee: Siobhan, Deacon Ray, Mario, Mary,
Courtney, Carter, Andrew at Manderley Golf, and all
volunteers for their hard work and dedication. We also were
supported by local businesses and would encourage you to
support our generous sponsors listed here. See you all next
year.

EUTHANASIA & ASSISTED SUICIDE:
On Oct. 15 the Supreme Court of Canada is to hear the Carter vs
Canada case that seeks to legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia in Canada. Our Catholic faith teaches us to meet the needs of
the suffering with: compassion; the Church’s prayer; and our
assistance - to show the ailing their great worth, to assure them
that they do not suffer alone and to remind them in their suffering
that they reveal to us the face of Jesus Christ in a unique way. The
measure of a society is found by how it cares for its most
vulnerable members. Let us not fail our ailing brothers and sisters
by legalizing euthanasia rather than ministering to their suffering.
Please join together in prayer and fasting to ask God’s help in
preventing the great assault on human life of euthanasia
becoming legal in Canada. For more information visit:
(www.canadiancatholicphysicians.com). Also see the
diocesan website (www.catholicottawa.ca) about the national
‘Life-Giving Love’ campaign on this issue.
SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR PARISH SUPPORTERS!
