VOCATION VIEW
If we really believe in something it does not seem to be a sacrifice to give up everything else to pursue that one dream. Jesus asks the same as any great leader … total dedication; but He promises rewards no one else can promise, "You will then have treasure in Heaven." Come, follow the call of Christ s a priest, sister, brother, or deacon. If you think God is calling you to one of these, call Fr. Leon Biernat 847-5535.

This is the first in a series of commentaries on issues/concerns that surfaced from the Spiritual Survey.

Q: Why don't we ring the bells during consecration at Mass?

A: In days gone by, it was quite common for the altar servers to ring bells when the priest elevated the Body of Christ and the cup of the Lord's Precious Blood. After the Second Vatican Council, the Mass started to be celebrated in the vernacular (the language spoken by the people attending the Eucharistic liturgy). It was said that the bells brought people's attention to the action on the altar, as some people in the past had been praying the rosary or other devotions until the moment when the consecration occurred. In addition, many churches are quite large and it was difficult to see the consecration occur. Today, of course, most churches have microphones so that the priest's words are audible throughout the church.

The participation of the People of God at the Mass is to be "full, active and conscious" participation. That includes prayerful attention as the priest prays the Eucharistic Prayer and the host and wine become the Body, Blood, Soul and divinity of Christ. In most parishes today, a moment of reverent, silent awe is observed as the Eucharistic Lord is shown. After a moment of silence, we are invited by the priest of deacon to "proclaim the mystery of faith" in the Memorial Acclamation.

Unlike bells, our voices then ring out in song to proclaim the saving mystery that "Christ Has Died, Christ is Risen, Christ will come again." While it is not "wrong" to ring bells at that moment, it has not been the practice at Christ the King for a number of years. So, let your hearts ring out in that moment of quiet; then join the song and proclaim what we believe!

A SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY
We all have special moments in out lives that we especially like to remember - childhood moments, a vacation, a quiet moment with family and friends, a wedding, graduation or the birth of a new baby. The moments and people that are important to us have special places in our lives and in our hearts.
Whether these are memories of a beloved friend, family member or special times together, memories of moments shared with loved ones are the most treasured of all. These memories become our history that forms our family traditions, which are passed on through generations.
Parish Outreach would like to offer the Seniors of our parish a tangible way to collect, celebrate and pass on their most treasured memories and life stories. Each person is the star of his or her life. A life story, that when told, is an album, becomes a legacy
We would like to help you organize your photographs, mementos & thoughts. We will be meeting in the Church Library on Friday mornings from 9:30 -11:00 a.m. beginning November 14th. You will receive a photo album, a pen, tape for photographs & sheets to take home. The cost is $10. If you would like to register or have any questions, please call Keri Mayer at 831-1246 or Linda Maslona at 839-2363.

SPIRITUAL ADOPTION
Everyone loves the beauty and innocence of a baby. As an expression of that love, our parish with the aid of the Respect Life Committee, announces a spiritual adoption program.
Next weekend, members of our parish family will have the opportunity to "spiritually" adopt a child who is newly conceived this month. You see, not all newly conceived babies are allowed to be born. In fact, almost 4000 babies lose their lives to abortion each day. It is these babies, who are in danger of having their lives ended before birth that you are being asked to "adopt."
You may "adopt" a baby individually or as a family by signing up next weekend. You will be asked to name the child for whom you will be praying, thereby giving the baby the humanity he or she deserves. You will be asked to pray for your unborn child and for all the unborn children for the power of prayer is great.
There will be monthly updates in the bulletin describing your baby's development and your child will be born in nine months.
There are millions of unborn babies desperately in need of your prayers. Won't you please "spiritually adopt" one and share the love for life that God has given you?

DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME BEGINS ON SUNDAY, OCTOBER 26TH

BISHOP HENRY J. MANSELL
Pope John Paul II has named Bishop Henry J. Mansell as the new Archbishop of Hartford, Connecticut.
"With acute appreciation of the need for many prayers I accept Pope John Paul II's appointment as the Archbishop of Hartford. It will be a high privilege for me to serve in that capacity, and I thank the Holy Father for the confidence he has expressed in me. Having the highest esteem for the Holy Father, I pray that I will be worthy of his trust.
"At the same time it will be very difficult to leave the Diocese of Buffalo. For over eight years I have witnessed extraordinary grace at work in the eight counties of Western New York. It is a diocese richly blessed. Every day I reflected with gratitude on the honor it was to serve the clergy, religious and lay people there. I am sure we will continue to be united in prayer for the years ahead.
"The Archdiocese of Hartford enjoys a hallowed and distinguished history. I look forward to meeting with everyone possible across the Archdiocese and to working with all the clergy, religious, and lay people who make up this special family. I am fortunate to follow Archbishop Daniel A. Cronin. His wisdom and love for the Church are renowned through the United States and well beyond.
"There will always be challenges. May God bless us all that we may serve as a Church of profound prayer and vigorous work, attuned to the prompting of the Holy Spirit."

SPIRITUAL ADOPTION
Everyone loves the beauty and innocence of a baby. As an expression of that love, our parish with the aid of the Respect Life Committee, announces a spiritual adoption program. At mass today, you will be given the opportunity to "spiritually" adopt a child who is newly conceived this month. You see, not all newly conceived babies are allowed to be born. In fact, almost 4000 babies lose their lives to abortion each day. It is these babies, who are in danger of having their lives ended before birth that you are being asked to "adopt."
You may "adopt" a baby individually or as a family, and are asked to name the child for whom you will be praying, thereby giving the baby the humanity he or she deserves. You will be asked to pray for your unborn child and for all the unborn children for the power of prayer is great. There will be monthly updates in the bulletin describing your baby's development and your child will be born in nine months. There are millions of unborn babies desperately in need of your prayers. Won't you please "spiritually adopt" one and share the love for life that God has given you?

CHILDREN'S CLOTHING DRIVE
The teen Youth Group will be commemorating World Youth Day this year by hosting a clothing drive for children through the ministry at Harvest House. New & gently used clothing items in sizes ranging from new born through children's size 14, will be collected on the Weekends of Oct. 26th & 27th and Nov. 1st & 2nd. Please drop off items in the collection box in the upstairs foyer under the bulletin board. Harvest house has indicated a special need for: pajamas, underwear & socks in sizes 3-14; onesies in sizes 18-24 months; any clothing in sizes 5 & 6.

SWEEPSTAKES DRAWING
The drawing for this year's Sweepstakes will be held on Saturday, November 15th at the CTK Sweepstakes Party and Mini-Auction (see flier in today's bulletin). Sweepstakes tickets were mailed to each family of the parish earlier this month, and are only $10 each. Tickets are also available in the Rectory during weekday business hours. The proceeds from the sweepstakes will help fund ongoing programs in both the church and school.

VOCATION VIEW
The blind beggar Bartimaeus would not listen to the many people scolding him to be quiet, but shouted all the louder in prayer, "Son of David, have pity on me!" Only then did Jesus call him over and answered his need. Bartimaeus become a powerful example of how persistent we must be in prayer when we are asking God to show us His Will for our lives. And then, ask Him for the grace to accept it. If you feel God is offering you the grace of a Church vocation, call Fr. Leon Biernat at 847-5535.
