The Commemoration of all the Faithful Departed
Something to ponder….
We each answer to someone
greater than us
Today’s Gospel reminds us of the saying ‘Do as I say not as I do.’ Jesus is
contrasting what the scribes and Pharisees say about the Law - and how they
act - they do not, as He says, practise
what they preach...their teaching about
the Law and its regulations places great burdens on people
which they do nothing to help them to cope with. Their role,
as they see it, puts them above other people and they demand - and obviously get plenty of attention and respect
from those around them. Jesus then turns to those who are
around Him - His disciples and also people who have gathered to listen and states quite forcibly that this is not how it
is to be with them. They are, in fact, to avoid any title which
suggests that they are superior to others - for they are always answerable to one greater than themselves. From a
commentary on this week’s Gospel by Catherine McElhinney and Kathryn Turner

REFLECTING ON THE PASTORAL PLAN
OF THE ARCHDIOCESE OF TORONTO
IV Catholic Outreach in Justice and Love
The spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the
Lord has anointed me; he has sent me to bring good
news to the oppressed, to bind up the broken-hearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to the
prisoners. – Isaiah 61:1Our pastoral plan challenges us to
witness and serve in diverse ways and to be advocates
where injustice occurs: through pastoral care to those who
are poor and marginalized, to students on campus, to those
who are imprisoned, seeking refuge or suffering physically
or spiritually. We can do all of this by working with our parishes, lay movements, Catholic institutions, chaplaincies
and various pastoral services. We are grateful for the good
works accomplished through Catholic Charities and
ShareLife, yet we need to do more. We hear the words at
Mass, “Go in peace, glorifying the Lord by your life”. How
can we be the hands and face of
Jesus in our community? Visit

COMMEMORAZIONE DI TUTTI I FEDELI DEFUNTI
Fino a quando il Signore Gesù verrà
nella gloria, e distrutta la morte gli
saranno sottomesse tutte le cose, alcuni
suoi discepoli sono pellegrini sulla terra,
altri che sono passati da questa vita
stanno purificandosi, altri infine godono
della gloria contemplando Dio. Tutti però
comunichiamo nella stessa carità di Dio. L’unione quindi di
coloro che sono in cammino con i fratelli morti non è minimamente spezzata, anzi è conservata dalla comunione dei
beni spirituali (cfr Conc. Vat. II, Costituzione dommatica
sulla Chiesa, «Lumen gentium», 49). La Chiesa fin dai
primi tempi ha coltivato con grande pietà la memoria dei
defunti e ha offerto per loro i suoi suffragi (ibidem, 50). Nei
riti funebri la Chiesa celebra con fede il mistero pasquale,
nella certezza che quanti sono diventati con il Battesimo
membri del Cristo crocifisso e risorto, attraverso la morte,
passano con lui alla vita senza fine. (Cfr Rito delle esequie,
1). Si iniziò a celebrare la Commemorazione di tutti i fedeli
defunti, anche a Roma, dal sec. XIV.
COMMEMORAZIONE DI TUTTI I MORTI-Durante tutto il
Mese di Novembre, pregheremo per i defunti durante la Santa
Messa. Se volete includere i vostri cari, scrivete i loro nomi sulle
buste provviste e depositatele nel cestino davanti all’altare. Le
buste sono disponibili all’entrata principale della Chiesa.
