St. Faustina Weekly Update
Happy Friday! This weekend, our Finance Council will provide us with our Annual Report for the 2020 Fiscal Year. For your convenience, we have attached a copy of this report to this newsletter. We also have our monthly Food Fair Distribution tomorrow morning for those in our community who are in need. Please remember to use our Eventbrite Link to make your reservation for Mass this weekend so we can adequately prepare for all who are attending. Finally, October is dedicated to honoring the Most Holy Rosary, so we encourage you to join us 30 minutes before Mass begins to pray this beautiful devotion. Have a wonderful weekend!

Video Reflection on Sunday's Readings
In his response to the Pharisees in today's reading, Jesus quotes the Shema, the great prayer from Deuteronomy 6:4, which begins, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one Lord" (RSV). However, Jesus subtly changes the wording. Instead of saying that we are to love the Lord with all our heart, soul, and might, Jesus says we must love with our heart, soul, and mind. So what's the big deal? What's the difference between might and mind? Enjoy this reflection through our free account with Formed.org.
