Scripture
Has not the one God created us? (Malachi 2:10)
I busy not myself with great things, nor with things
too sublime for me. (Psalm 131:1b)
We were determined to share with you not only thegospel of God, but our very selves as well, (1Thessalonians 2:8)
The greatest among you must be your servant.(Matthew 23:11)
Reflection
In what ways does technology serve you? In whatways do you serve technology?
What demands does popular culture make thatcause you to serve (spend time and money) theculture?
When have you served and loved an individualyou did not like?
Are you more effective at serving through grandi-
ose actions or small acts of kindness?
Do you share the gospel through serving others?
His soul melted at the sight of the poor and the infirm,and to those to whom he could not extend a helpinghand he extended his affection. (St. Bonaventure, The
Life of St Francis)

St. Michael's Book of the DeadPraying for the dead is a Christian obligation. In themodern world, when many have come to doubt theChurch's teaching on Purgatory, the need for such
prayers has only increased. The Church devotes themonth of November to prayer for the Holy Souls inPurgatory, and participation in the Mass of All SoulsDay is a good way to begin the month. The Book of theDead will be at both entrances of the church beginningNovember 1, 2010. Please enter the names of your
beloved dead. We will lift them in prayer at each mass.
All Saints Day MassVigil Mass: October 31st, 5pm
November 1st, 11:30am
All Souls Day Mass November 2nd: 11:30am, 12:00pm and 12:30pm
Question: Where did the title 'Mary, Star of the Sea'
come from?
This title has been applied to Mary for centuries. Oneexplanation is that when St. Jerome translated the Hebrewword mar , he used the Latin word stilla. Yam is the He-brew word for "sea." Thus, maryam (Mary's name) would
mean "drop of the sea." Later, the Latin stilla (drop) wasead as stella (star). "Drop of the sea" became "star of theea."
Ave Maris Stella is a ninth-century Latin hymn honor-ng Mary. Considering the dangers of sea travel in ancientimes, it is easy to imagine that sailors and passengers
gladly prayed to Mary for safe passage.
