Bazaar Committee
When the human
heart is burdened and
heavy with guilt,
God’s desire is to give
us a new heart
through the grace of
conversion. With the
help of the Spirit,
we are given the
strength to seek and
trust God’s merciful
forgiveness so that we
might have a fresh
and new start in our
relationship with Him.

funds raised at the Bazaar are used for improvements in the
Hall. A complete list of these improvements would take several written pages. Thank you all parishioners for your contributions.
Silent auction theme baskets are always appreciated. Fresh
homemade baked goods, cookies, pies, cakes, breads and craft
items are great sellers.
For the white elephant sale, please consider new or nearly
new items that can be wrapped up and given as gifts. Think of
it as re-gifting a really good item.
Completed items for the Bazaar and white elephant may
be brought to the Hall any day during the week before the
bazaar (November 30 through December 5).
Thanks for your help and contributions to this important, fun,
all-parish event!!

Sabiduría y esperanza
Sabiduría 6: 12-16
Se personifica en este libro la sabiduría como alguien
que sale al encuentro, toma la iniciativa, pero también
como algo o alguien a buscar en la vida. Si algo interesa,
se busca con intensidad y así mismo es con la sabiduría,
quese deja encontrar y está dispuesta a impartir justicia.
1 Tesalonicenses 4: 13-18
Separa, por así decir, Pablo a dos grupos muy distintos
de personas: quienes tienen esparanza y quienes no.
Quienes no tienen esperanza, se entristecen. Los que no
tienen esperanza, no ven sentido ni futuro para la historia. La esperanza, sin embargo, tiene una razón y fundamento, y es la Victoria de Cristo en la resurreción. Cuando la parusía se produzca, las cosas que ahora son esperanza serán realidades. La primera de esas realidades
es que los vivientes, junto los que han resucitado, serán
tomados para ir al encuentro del Señor.
Marco 25: 1-13
El aceite es estar vigilante, saber reconocer al Dios que
llega a nosotros para dar sentido a nuestra vida. Si nos
dormimos, si no escuchamos, si no estamos atentos,
como las muchachas que luego quieren pedir
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ seremos
prestado el aceite de las otras. Nadie puede escuchar por
nosotros;
nadie puede estar preparado por nosotros;

Berea Food Bank Letter from Jerry Workman
Thank you! We received your generous $200.00 donation to the
Berea Food Bank on October 6, 2014, and it means the world to us.
We are thrilled to have yet another gift from you in 2014. You are
so kind to remember our organization.
As you know, the recent economic situation has placed more
families than ever in need of assistance. In 2013, the Berea Food
Bank was able to serve over 677 individuals and families. The
estimated value of that assistance was $248,000. Over 99% of financial contributions are used to purchase food to distribute to
those families in need. It was an amazing year of giving for the
Berea Food Bank , an entirely volunteer organization.
Frankly we could not do what we do without your support.
The families of Berea in need join me in thanking you for your
generous gifts to the Berea Food Bank We are so lucky to have
you as donor.

A Service of Remembrance
The Holidays, perhaps especially Thanksgiving and Christmas, can be
very difficult when we are in mourning, or when we are missing
someone whom we have loved deeply who is no longer physically
with us.
To remember them and celebrate their lives, as well as to provide
comfort at this time of the year, there will be An Evening Service of
Remembrance held on November 18th at 7:00 p.m. at St. Clare
Church.
There will be music, a candle lighting ritual, readings, and some
time for possible sharing. If you wish and are able, please bring some
small memento or picture of those you wish to remember.
If you have any questions, please e-mail Peggy Patrick:
[email protected].

Through the liturgy
“the work of our redemption
takes place,” especially in the
divine sacrifice of the Eucharist,
is supremely effective in
enabling the faithful to express in their lives
and portray to others the mystery of Christ and
the real Nature of the true Church. ((SC. §2)

In response to the “Joy of the Gospel” series,
