We believe that discipleship is a way of life. We strive to show that we are committed disciples, eager to welcome the stranger, feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, and comfort the bereaved. Inspired by God’s word and nourished by the Eucharist, we pledge ourselves to active discipleship all for God’s greater glory and honor. Nosotros, parroquianos de San José, por la gracia de Dios, nacidos de nuevo en las aguas del bautismo, buscamos crear una comunidad donde nuestra fe en común en Jesús como Señor y Salvador, nos anime a seguir creciendo como discípulos. Creemos que el discipulado es una manera de vida. Nos esforzamos por demostrar que somos discípulos comprometidos, deseosos de dar la bienvenida al extranjero, alimentar al hambriento, abrigar al desprotegido y confortar al afligido. Inspirados en la palabra de Dios y alimentados por la Eucaristía, nos comprometemos a ser discípulos activos para mayor gloria y honra de Dios.

TUITION ANGEL FUND As we know, the downturn of the economy in recent years has had a tremendous impact on all of us. Many families who have students in Catholic schools feel the ever increasing pressures of meeting their family's needs along with the additional impact of tuition. We here at Saint Joseph Academy have established a "Tuition Angel Fund". The purpose of the fund is to help families who are struggling financially yet are committed to providing their child(ren) with a Catholic education. We look to our parishioners to help us keep this vital resource available to the young families of our parish. Please consider making regular donations to this fund knowing that you are helping spread the word of God through your generosity by supporting some very needy families and their children in Saint Joseph Academy. Donations may also be made in memory of a loved one or a friend with an acknowledgement being sent to their family. We even have children that look to share their blessings by asking their families to make donations to the "Tuition Angel" fund instead of receiving presents at birthdays, holidays, etc. Also, if your resources are such, please consider "adopting" a student, thus supporting a student(s) by paying all or part of the monthly tuition. We have many single parents and families who desperately would like their child to attend Saint Joseph Academy but do not have the resources to pay. Please feel free to add your check to the weekly collection basket in an envelope clearly marked "Tuition Angel" or contact the school office for more information at 201-487-8641. May God bless your generosity. Your donations can truly make a difference in a young child's life. Page 6 November 2nd, 2014 LOOKING TO THE LAST DAY Today the Church remembers all who have walked the way of Christ and passed from this life. The readings all look to the last day, when we shall all rise from the dead and be reunited. The prophet Daniel announces words of warning and welfare. He cautions us against the judgment to come, but he also comforts us and assures us that all who live a life of virtue and justice will find life eternal. The reading from Romans reminds us that, because of Christ’s passion, death, and resurrection and our entrance into that paschal mystery through baptism, we now share in the new life won by Christ. This recognition has repercussions: we need to live righteously now, that we might rise to life forever with Christ on the last day. In the Gospel Jesus pledges that all the Father has given him will not be lost. All the faithful will be raised to joy and live forever in the presence of God. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. TODAY’S READINGS The readings listed here are chosen from the broad selection available for this Sunday. First Reading — The souls of the just are in the hands of God, and no torment shall touch them (Wisdom 3:1-9). Psalm — The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want (Psalm 23). Second Reading — Hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out into our hearts (Romans 5:5-11) or Romans 6:3-9. Gospel — This is the will of the Father, that everyone who sees the Son and believes may have eternal life (John 6:37-40).

Las lecturas todas miran al último día, cuando todos resucitaremos de entre los muertos y nos encontraremos de nuevo. El profeta Daniel anuncia palabras de prevención y bienestar. Nos previene sobre el juicio que ha de venir, pero también nos consuela y nos asegura que todo el que vive una vida de virtud y de justicia alcanzará la vida eterna. La lectura de romanos nos recuerda que, por la pasión, muerte y resurrección de Cristo y por nuestra participación en ese misterio pascual mediante el Bautismo, nosotros ahora compartimos esa nueva vida que Cristo nos ganó. Este reconocimiento tiene repercusiones: necesitamos vivir justamente ahora, para poder alcanzar la vida eterna con Cristo en el último día. En el Evangelio Jesús promete que ninguno de aquellos que el Padre le ha confiado se perderá. Todos los justos serán resucitados para gozar y vivir eternamente en la presencia de Dios. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. LECTURAS DE HOY Las lecturas mencionadas aquí han sido seleccionadas de entre las muchas que hay disponibles para este domingo. Primera Lectura — Las almas de los justos están en manos de Dios, donde no los alcanzará ningún tormento(Sabiduría 3:1-9) Salmo — El Señor es mi pastor, nada me falta (Salmo 23). Segunda Lectura — La prueba de que Dios nos ama está en que Cristo murió por nosotros (Romanos 6:3-9). Evangelio — La voluntad de mi Padre es que todo hombre que ve al Hijo y crea en él tenga la vida eterna. (Juan 6:37-40).

Many thanks to Myrna Bruno, Joan LaSala, Kathleen Roche, Lorraine Kolinkowski and Miguel and Rosa Jimenez who shared about the Stewardship of Time. Their very personal sharings showed each of us how best we can use our time for growth in a life of intimacy with the Lord and service to others. This weekend we will hear about the Stewardship of Talent. How best do we use our talents that God has given to us. In a few weeks all will be asked to consider becoming more involved in the life of our parish and various ministries. Above all this is meant to be a time of prayer and reflection for each of us as we look at our relationship with God and our life of service. May this be a time of blessing for each of us and our parish family. Altar Bread for the first half month of November is in Memory of THE LOVED ONES OF THE ANGELI & LOMBARDI FAMILIES Requested by The Angeli Family Sanctuary Lamp for the month of November in Memory of THOMAS & BARBARA HEALY requested by Their Loving Family TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION For those of Mexican heritage, November 2 means celebration of el Dia de Los Muertos,or “the Day of the Dead.” One of the most important days of the year for many, they join All Saints and All Souls together, visiting the graves of babies and children on All Saints, since they are santitos (little saints) or angelitos (little angels). Flowers, their favorite toys, favorite music, and so on, are taken to them. The following day, people spend time—some of them all day—at the cemetery with their loved ones who have died. From the ancient customs of the Indians the families pray, talk with them, and take them their favorite food. It is a most solemn but joyful day. It is a day to celebrate Christ’s victory over death: “Death, where is your sting?” There is a mocking of death as people make skeletons, candy that represents death, and Pan de los Muertos (bread of the dead) and consume them in a kind of role reversal. One of the customs is to build an altarcito (little altar) where one places mementos and pictures of those who have died. There are also favorite foods, candles, statues or pictures of favorite saints, books, and Bibles. Some parishes have begun to build an altarcito where all parishioners can join in honoring the deceased. A remembrance book can be placed to write names in. The altarcito is traditionally left up for the month of November. -Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. La semana pasada nos enteramos de la primera de nuestras presentaciones sobre la Corresponsabilidad. Muchas gracias a Myrna Bruno, Joan LaSala, Kathleen Roche, Lorena Kolinkowski y Miguel y Rosa Jiménez, quienes compartieron sobre la mayordomía de tiempo. Sus puestas en común muy personales mostraron cada uno de nosotros la mejor manera que podemos utilizar nuestro tiempo para crecer en una vida de intimidad con el Señor y el servicio a los demás. Este fin de semana vamos a oír hablar de la Administración de Talento. ¿Cómo hacer mejor usamos nuestros talentos que Dios nos ha dado. En un par de semanas todo se les pedirá que considere la posibilidad de participar más en la vida de nuestra parroquia y varios ministerios. Por encima de todo esto está destinado a ser un tiempo de oración y reflexión para cada uno de nosotros si nos fijamos en nuestra relación con Dios y nuestra vida de servicio. Que este sea un tiempo de bendición para cada uno de nosotros y nuestra familia parroquial. Altar Wine for the first half month of November is in Memory of PETER TIMPANO requested by Loretta & Alfred D’Ambrosio Altar Wine for the second half month of November is in Memory of NANCY SPINELLI requested by Loretta & Alfred D’Ambrosio TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE Cuando era niño tuve problemas con inaguantables dolores de cabeza. Después de casi tres meses batallando con esta enfermedad una señora me regaló una estampita de san Martín de Porres que contenía un pedacito de su hábito. Dormí con esta estampita debajo de mi almohada y al tercer día sané de mi dolor. Martín fue un religioso dominico de nacionalidad peruana que vivió de 1579 a 1639 y fue canonizado en 1962. Sin lugar a dudas, es uno de los santos más populares de América Latina. En él encontramos una persona con la cual nos podemos identificar ya que muchas veces a nosotros nos limitan las oportunidades debido a nuestro origen y el color de nuestra piel. Por su origen (era hijo de un español y de una africana) ilegítimo y su color mulato, Martín tuvo problemas para ingresar a la Orden de los Predicadores. Eventualmente la santidad de sus obras y la fama de sus milagros le abrieron camino para incorporarse plenamente a los dominicos. Normalmente es representado con una escoba y unos animalitos, recordando la humildad de su servicio pastoral. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
