The Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Focus: Jesus teaches us how to reconcile our earthly
commitments with our obligations to God.
Jesus challenges us to examine how we demonstrate our fidelity
to him while living in the world. Do worldly attachments or
loyalties get in the way of our being faithful to Jesus and his
teachings? Today’s readings show that there need not be a
conflict between fulfilling our civil obligation and our
obligations to God.
Rest in Peace

The IC CYM is asking for your help again this year with their
Thanksgiving Day project. We will provide 75 families with a
Thanksgiving Meal!
It is our desire to provide not only the food to feed them, but
all the necessary ingredients for them to make a home-cooked
meal for their family.
The CYM will assemble the 75 boxes of meal items, so that
families may pick them up and prepare their own meal. A list
of needed items can be found in today’s bulletin. If you would
like to donate an item, several items, or fill a whole box, your
generosity will be greatly appreciated.
Please bring all donations to the church office by Friday,
November 21st. We are also accepting monetary donations
for this project. The approximated cost of each meal for a
family of six is $50. Please make checks payable to IC CYM
and place in an envelope marked “Thanksgiving Project.”
Together we can make a difference to a family in need; and as
we care for those who are disadvantaged, that is where we
encounter and minister to Christ!
“Whatsoever you do, to the least of my brothers...that you do unto me.”
