A Marianist Moment
More on the Mariainsts in East Africa: Stories from
Our Lady of Nazareth School~
The school’s staff of 65 includes teachers, counselors
and mentors for approximately 1,800 students in
kindergarten through eighth grade. Our Lady of Nazareth (OLN) students call the school a “safe haven”
that shelters them from the harsh realities of slum
life. For many, the school is the one place they can
count on. “I didn’t have anywhere to go except
OLN,” says Maurice. Not only do many students have nowhere else to
go, they have nowhere else to eat. OLN serves students one hot meal a
day — often the only meal the children receive.
Jenipher Nyawera Kahuthu, 25, graduated from OLN in 1999. Prior to
attending OLN, Jenipher walked to school— a daily round-trip of
nearly 10 miles. “I was six years old. My parents could not afford to
pay bus fare, so I had to wake up very early to get to school on time,”
she says. “Unfortunately, I was often punished for being late.” When
OLN opened a half-mile from her home, she says, “It was like manna
from heaven.”
Jenipher earned one of OLN’s scholarships to secondary school, and
went on to study at a public university. Now a fourth-year medical
student, she plans to specialize in pediatrics. “I am still benefitting
from the Marianist-sponsored scholarships that allowed me to continue
my education. In two years, I will be a doctor. Without the Marianists,
I surely would not have come this far.”
Jared Ondera Aming’a, 24, graduated from OLN in 1999. He also
qualified for an OLN-sponsored scholarship to a good secondary
school in Nairobi. “Winning that scholarship was the best day of my
life. At that moment, I resolved to work hard to get accepted to a university,” he says. He recently earned a bachelor’s degree in commerce
from the University of Nairobi, the first OLN graduate to do so. “I am
now hoping to get myself a nice job,” says Jared. “Life will never be
the same again.” Jared has worked at an insurance company and recently accepted a position at PricewaterhouseCoopers, a global financial advisory firm.

SAINTS /FEASTS OF THE WEEK
Nov 16: St Gertrude, Virgin ~ (1256 –1302) Patron of the West Indies,
born at Eisleben in Saxony. When she was 5 years old, sent to live
with the Benedictine sisters where she later became a sister in that
monastery, and later abbess. From a cloistered order, she was a theologian and very faithful in her devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus in
His Passion, the Eucharist and the Blessed Mother. She had a passion
for praying for the Holy Souls in Purgatory.
Nov 18: St Rose Philippine Duchesne, Virgin ~ Born
August 29, 1769 in Grenoble, France, died November
18, 1852 in St. Charles, Missouri, she was a sister of
the Sacred Heart. At the age of 49 she was sent to the
United States where she opened the first American
house of the congregation and the first free school
west of the Mississippi. At age 71, she opened a school for Native
Americans. She was known for her courage, steadfast prayer and her
dedication and service to the Native Americans. She was beatified by
Pope Pius XII in 1940 and canonized by Pope John Paul II in 1988.
Nov 22: St Cecilia, Virgin and Martyr ~ From the 2nd-3rd century,
Patron of Musicians, because of the story that she heard heavenly
music in her heart when she was married. There was
little known of her until the 5th century. The story suggests that when she was newly married, she told her
husband, Valerian, she had a secret that he could not tell
anyone and he must agree to believe in One God and be
baptized. She told her husband that she was accompanied by an angel who protected her from harm. He went
to Rome to be baptized by Pope Urban (223-230). When he returned,
he saw an angel by her where she was praying. She continued to
preach and convert people who were baptized by Pope Urban. Eventually, she was arrested, and condemned to be suffocated in the baths.
Under the tortuous fire, she was unharmed. The executioner was unable to behead her. She was left to bleed to death. She continued to
preach and pray until she died. Pope Urban had her buried. The Emperor at this time, Alexander Severus, was known to have been more
tolerant of Christians and there was no direct persecution of them.

Parish Sacrament of Reconciliation
Tuesday, December 9 at 7:00 p.m.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation is a good Advent practice in preparation for Christmas. The Sacrament restores our relationship with God and realigns us with our Baptism.
We pray not only for the times we don’t obey the commandments but
the times we don’t love God and one another as we should. It does
not matter if you have been away from the Sacrament - but rather that
you have come back and the graces will be obvious in your life.
Several priests will be available for individual confessions after a
short communal preparation period. Printed resources will be available to assist you in your preparation.

“33 Days to Morning Glory”
by Michael E. Gaitley, MIC
A Do-It-Yourself Retreat
A six week program meeting on Thursday evenings
beginning Jan 22 — Feb 26 from 6:30-7:30 pm
in the Parish Office Conference Room
What does it mean to be consecrated to Jesus through Mary? As Paul
describes in 1 Cor 12:5-6, we are all given gifts that we are to share
with the world around us. Whatever our skill or talent, God has appointed us to a special task in his great work to bring Jesus to the
world. Mary’s work began with her “yes” to bearing the child Jesus.
Her mission continues today, just as it continued after Jesus’ death.
She was given to us as our spiritual mother, to help us grow in holiness. It is her mission to form us into saints (p.25)… in union with the
Holy Spirit. We help her fulfill her mission by doing as she did, saying “yes” to bringing Christ into the world.
The book highlights the Marian teachings of St. Louis de Montfort,
Maximilian Kolbe, St. Mother Teresa, & St. Pope John Paul II. This
program will be facilitated by Fr. Tom French. Please call the parish
office, 993-2280, to reserve your spot. We need to know how many
are interested so that we can order the materials. Take the opportunity
to ponder the inspiring teachings on Marian consecration.

God expects us to nurture and develop the gifts He has given us and
then generously give back with increase. He doesn’t want us to waste
or hoard the gifts He has given us; He expects us to grow our gifts,
use them wisely and be generous with them.

Advertising Opportunity
We are in the process of updating our annual Guide Book & Directory for the Church. This book will be the Who, What, Where, When,
Why and How of our Congregation. The book is being provided at no
cost to our Church, including the mailing to each family, and again is
being subsidized by local businesses that advertise in it.
If you own or manage a business and would like to find out about
advertising in our book, please call Beth Price at 314-540-3102.
Recent survey results by Guide Book Publishing show that 92.1% of
families would rather patronize a Guide Book & Directory advertiser
over a non-advertiser. It “will pay” to advertise in our new Guide
Book & Directory.
