THE WORD OF GOD THIS SUNDAY: For this Sunday,
the thirty-third in Ordinary Time, the Scriptural readings
begin with a passage from the Book of Proverbs which
extols the virtues of a wonderful wife. In the second reading, from the First Letter to the Thessalonians, Saint Paul
exhorts us to remain vigilant for the return of the Lord. In
the Gospel, Jesus speaks of a man who demanded accountability from his servants and infers that such accountability will be demanded of us as well at the end of
our lives.
5:30 P.M. MASS NEXT SATURDAY (NOVEMBER 22ND)
The 5:30 p.m. Mass next Saturday, November 22nd, will
be celebrated in the chapel at Cardinal Wuerl North
Catholic and NOT in the auditorium. This is necessary
because of the need to set up the stage for a concert by
the Pittsburgh Symphony that evening. Please note that
the chapel seats only 250. It may be a little crowded so if
you regularly attend the 5:30 p.m. Mass and can attend
another that evening please do so.
SYMPATHY: The sympathy of the parish is extended to
parishioners Chuck Young and his family at the death of
his wife and parishioner, Debra Young and Raymond
Konesky and his family at the death of his wife and parishioner, Esther Konesky. May their souls and all the
souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God
rest in peace.

The first reading and psalm together offer us a balanced
image of a woman and a man who, each in their respective social roles, are faithful to God’s desires about the
manner of human living. Both texts are couched in the
domestic terms that characterized Hebrew life and understanding, but the Lectionary’s intent is to offer models for
all sorts of lifestyles, vocations, and situation in life.
Those who “fear the Lord” are faithful in carrying out the
ordinary everyday demands of covenant living, and their
fidelity and generosity flow back to them in abundant
blessings. Psalm 128 celebrates the blessedness that
comes to a person who in daily living is faithful to the demands of the covenant. (reprinted from Living Liturgy,
Liturgical Press Collegeville, MN)

Christina!
Wow! We had a very inspirational message from Christina,
our guest speaker! She shared her struggles recovering from
brain surgery and challenged us to have a positive attitude no
matter what happens in life. She called those challenges
“Golden Opportunities” to see life in a different perspective and
to focus on God and what is really important in life. Christina
also encouraged us to not wait for a life changing event to
change our perspective or deepen our relationship with God.
Do it today!
THANK YOU!
Thanks to everyone who donated money towards Christina’s
mission to build an orphanage in Haiti! Collectively, we donated $155.00! Go to Christina’s foundation page to see our donation and to read of her passion for Haiti. If you missed coming and wish to donate, direct donations can be made at any
time online.

FOOD DRIVE below). Items can be dropped off in advance at
SKP (ATTN: Jo Scheller) OR brought with you on the 22nd. Donations should be earned by the youth themselves. THANK
YOU for helping us help others.
HUGE FOOD DRIVE! In order to fill 24 boxes, we need ALL of
Jr. SKY to help. I have a detailed “grocery list” online – no extra trip to the store, we are grateful for whatever you can spare
from your pantry. J To sign up, go to http://vols.pt/yjE6a4 or use
the VolunteerSpot button that is mid-way on our Jr. SKY
webpage. IMPORTANT! Please drop off items at the front desk

next social event is Buddy Bingo on Dec 6th with Saint Ferdinand Parish. We use new or like-new odds ‘n ends collected

such an unexpected group of prizes! All are winners, and the
laughs are worth it! No need to purchase new, thank you for
supporting Jr. SKY! Drop-off at the front desk, ATTN: Jo Scheller.

night! The youth LOVE something for dessert—ask them to help
bake it as well! Please email JO so that I know we are covered.
NO PHONE ZONE …there are so many awesome people to
meet and get to know at Jr. SKY! Please put away phones or
better yet, leave them at home so that we can be fully present to
others.
PICK-UP/DROP-OFF for all meetings is at the front of the cafeteria. You will need to park and come in to get your youth or wait
and do a “drive-through” pick-up since the main (upper) doors to
the High School will now be locked. Our only priority is to keep
everyone safe!

To Build A Church, a Church Alive
Pledge Redemption Instructions
Over the next five years, we will be collecting on the pledges made to our To Build A Church, A Church Alive Campaign
which will enable us to build our church. In order to make the process easier for both you and the parish, we ask that you
please utilize the following information when you fulfill your commitment.
Pledge Payments
Remittance statements are mailed the last week of every month. If you are sending payments on a different
schedule than monthly, the remittance statement schedule is the same, but you’ll receive them when you selected — semi-annually, annually, etc.
In order to assist Saint Kilian with the pledge payment process over the next five years, please wait for your
reminder statement before sending any payments to To Build A Church, A Church Alive. Do not send payments directly to Saint Kilian. Pledges are centrally processed, and the Diocese sends the proceeds to Saint
Kilian each quarter over the next five years via our parish’s Diocesan savings & loan account.
If you need to make any changes to your pledge, or if there are any errors, please send the changes to:
To Build A Church, A Church alive
c/o Our Campaign for The Church Alive!
PO Box 4
Pittsburgh, PA 15230
If you prefer to make your payments electronically (from a bank account or credit card) please visit the Faith Direct Website www.faithdirect.net where you can create an account or sign into your current account. Once on
the main homepage of your account, click “Add an Organization,” then enter the code PA162 for the Diocese of
Pittsburgh, not PA191 for Saint Kilian. Next, select Saint Kilian from the drop-down menu in order to have
your payments apply to the To Build A Church, A Church Alive Campaign at Saint Kilian. The remaining steps will allow you to set up your payment schedule. Finally, you will need to link your payment to a
major credit card or bank account of your choosing.
Tax Letters
Each year, tax letters will be sent from the Diocese for the preceding year of all pledge payments, note that these
are separate from the information sent by Saint Kilian for your Offertory and Parish Share participation.
Please direct any detailed tax questions to the Office of Stewardship:
(412) 456-3085 or email ourchurchalive@diopitt.org.
