Living God’s Word
The Thessalonians had stopped working completely, believing that the
Lord would come any day. Like the foolish virgins, they didn’t think
anything was expected of them. But keeping vigil is not a passive
undertaking. It involves active engagement in the tasks Christ
entrusted to his church.

Reflecting on God’s Word
In the Northern Hemisphere the days are growing shorter, the nights
longer. Nature seems to be entering a long winter’s sleep. Something
about the increasing darkness brings out our deepest weaknesses and
fears. It lulls some of us into lethargy while luring others into evil.
We may grow anxious about the dangers lurking in the dark and
ultimately awaiting us at the end of life. All those fears and weaknesses come to the fore when a loved one is out in the dead of night,
or slipping away into the darkness of eternal slumber. We stay awake
and watchful. We keep vigil.
This week’s scriptures invite us not to be drugged by the darkness that
seems to grow around us and succumb to slumber, temptation, or fear.
We are to keep vigil, but not like those “who have no hope” (1 Thessalonians 4:13). We are to stay awake, working and watchful,
confidently expecting God’s light to dawn at every new moment.
We are to seek wisdom, keeping vigil for her (book of Wisdom), to
thirst for the Lord through the night (Psalm 63), consoling one another
(1 Thessalonians). Like the wise virgins, we are to be prepared for a
long night of vigil. In the meantime we are to do the work entrusted to
us, free from care and full of hope.
Our Fifth Annual Beethoven to Broadway
will be held on Thursday,
November 20, 2014
7:00 p.m. in the Parish Hall .
Mark your calendars,
You don’t want to miss it!

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul
This weekend the second collection is for the St. Vincent
de Paul Society here at St. Peters. The Society uses your
donations to alleviate hunger in our community.
Thanksgiving is fast approaching and we need your
support for our annual holiday basket program for the
hungry in our community. Specifically, we need mashed
potato mix, stuffing mix, canned pumpkin, yams, sweet
potatoes, cranberry sauce, vegetables, turkey gravy packages and cornbread mix. Please drop these items off in the
basket located in the Narthex of the church.
Together we can make Thanksgiving possible for many
families who would not otherwise enjoy this holiday.
Thank you!
