PARISH COUNCIL MEETING
Monday, November 17, 2014

****MASS of REMEMBRANCE****
November 16, 2014 at 2:00 PM
Each Sunday, during the 10:00 AM Liturgy,
children are invited to come downstairs for
the Liturgy of The Word on their level.
They return back upstairs at the time of
the offertory.
A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE
"Jesus describes the vocation of parents: “The greatest among you
will be your servant.” Children take our blood, genes, strength,
name, patience and resources. A parent’s servitude begins at the
moment of conception. The Lord is present in each of our acts of
selfless service.
Any boy or girl in the 4th grade or
above, who wishes to be an Altar
Server is invited to a meeting (along
with a parent) NEXT Sunday, November 16th at 9:00 AM in the
Church. If you have any questions
please call Deacon John 203-281-3563.
The priests and staff of Our Lady of
Mount Carmel Church are aware of
the deep sadness and difficulties experienced at the loss of a loved one. In an
effort to help you cope with your loss,
we your parish family, invite you, your
family and friends to share in a special
Birthright of Greater New Haven is a pro-life pregnancy center in
Mass of Remembrance
Hamden serving the area since 1972. We help any pregnant woman
NEXT Sunday, November 16th at 2:00 PM.
As we wish to make this Mass a special occasion for
you, we need your response. Please call the Parish
Office at 203-248-0141 and inform the secretary if you
plan to attend and approximately how many people
will be in your group.

all families have a bountiful Thanksgiving. We will be collecting the following
items for food baskets:
Canned and dry foods,
such as cranberries, yams,
vegetables, gravy, potato mix, stuffing, pie crusts and

jelly, flour, sugar, pasta and pasta sauce.
Also, FROZEN, NOT FRESH TURKEYS that can

“Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them,
is the true measure of our thanksgiving.” ~W.T. Purkiser
who calls or comes to us. We offer free pregnancy tests, maternity
and baby clothing, diapers, etc. but most important; confidentiality,
friendship, support and guidance focused on the sanctity of every
life. We need volunteers. If you would like to help Birthright
please call Rita at 203-248-6550. We provide training. Thank You.
Sincerely, The Volunteers of Birthright
“Only a tender, compassionate love that seeks to serve those
most in need, whatever the personal cost, is strong enough to
overcome a culture of death and to build a civilization of love.
Let us open our hearts and reflect how God might be calling
each of us to witness the sacredness of human life.”
Cardinal Seán O’Malley
The Sisters of the Good Shepherd
will have a beautiful variety of religious articles & items
FOR SALE
NEXT Weekend (11/15 & 11/16) after All Masses
The contemplative communities of The Sisters of the Good Shepherd are
consecrated exclusively and primarily to God. Prayer was, is, and always
will be the relevant and valuable way of expressing their deep concern for
other people and for the profound sufferings of our world. Unlike apostolic
sisters, however, they are not employed outside the monastery but are self
supporting through the distribution of altar breads and by the fine handcrafted items that they make through the year such as Advent wreaths, candles
(baptismal, anniversaries, etc.) soaps, rosaries and chaplets, angels, frames,
holiday décor, quilts, etc. Earnings are shared with all others in need, particularly women and children who have been set aside by society. The Sisters also bring assorted home-baked goods: pies, delicacies, muffins, etc.
The Sisters thank us most sincerely for the welcome Our Lady of Mount
Carmel Parish accords them and please be assured that we are in their daily
prayers especially when they prepare our monthly Altar Breads. For the
Sisters, coming to our Parish means that they have faces to present to God
when they pray for us.

DEFENDING OUR RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
From: Archbishop Leonard P. Blair
Pope Francis has emphasized that “religious freedom is not simply
freedom of thought or private worship. It is the freedom to live
according to ethical principles, both privately and publicly.”
!
If you haven’t done so already, please voice your opposition to the
mandate by calling President Obama at the White House at 202456-1111 or U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Sylvia
Mathews Burwell at 202-205-5445. Let them know that the mandate is in violation of our First Amendment right to religious freedom.

Prayer for Veterans
Heavenly Father,
on this day, help us remember those
who gave of themselves to keep us safe and secure.
Enkindle in our consciences a desire
to serve those who served their country selflessly.
Give us the grace to aid those
who have given aid and protection
to us and others
both here and overseas.
Let us never forget the causes for
which they fought
or the bravery they showed on the
battlefield.
May we be always be mindful of
those who paid the price for our freedom,
just as Your Son gave his life
to free us from the bondage of sin.
~Amen.
