A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR Dear Holy Apostles Parish Family, I am writing this on a historic night when the Cubs won the series against the Cardinals. Thanks to all the Cardinal fans for their good wishes and sportsmanship. I did get to go to the Monday game and it was a night I will never forget. I want to update you on our Anchors Aweigh Campaign. As you see on the banners, we have a little over $100,000 in pledges toward our goal of $250,000 match for this year and ultimately $500,000 over the 3 years for Stage 2 of our campaign. This is a great start for a response of 131 families of around 800 families who regularly contribute. If we continue we will certainly reach our goal! Please make your pledge now to help us reach our goal. We are grateful to the 60 families who pledged $367,000 in Stage 1 of the campaign. These were people who either I visited or one of our committee contacted. We still have around 15 people we look forward to hearing from. Thanks to all who have responded and I pray the rest of you who are able will make a pledge soon.

WE OFFER OUR PRAYERS FOR: All the homeless, the unemployed, the military, the addicted, the grieving, the imprisoned, and the physically and emotionally ill.

We Share Our Blessings

Pastoral Care Support Groups

This week, our Parish Tithe will be given to the Teen March For Life.

Too many of us have been confronted with the tragedy of suicide. You may have experienced severe depression to the point of ending your life, or you have a loved one who has watched a family member or friend suffer from depression, ending in either an attempted or the finality of suicide. Or you did not even know that your loved one was suffering in silence until it was too late to help. All are welcome to come, to share, and try to understand a little bit more about suicide. Our first meeting will be November 4, at 7 PM in St. Ambrose/St. Catherine rooms. Geri Condon, who has experience with suicide both personally and professionally as a licensed professional counselor will be our facilitator. For more information, contact Jeanne Fraser at 815-385-5673, ext. 224 or [email protected].

A Little Help Allows Independence Even though he works full-time, a local man found it impossible to find housing that he could afford, leaving him homeless. This man was determined to be as independent as possible this summer and fall, so was camping out, not wanting to use PADS until the weather got too cold. After reaching out for assistance through the St. Vincent de Paul Society, he received food along with a cooler to safely store his food and some simple camping equipment to keep him safe from the weather. This man was grateful for the prayers and the supplies that enable him to keep living within his means in our community. Whoever if generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will repay him for his deed. Proverbs 19:17

20 citas Bíblicas para memorizar AMOR 1. Tanto amó Dios al mundo que le envió a su Hijo único, para que todo el que crea en Él no se pierda, sino tenga vida eterna (Jn 3,16). 2. Dios es amor (1Jn 4,8). 3. A Dios nadie lo ha visto jamás; pero si nos amamos unos a otros, Dios está entre nosotros (1Jn 4,12). 4. Amarás al Señor tu Dios con todo tu corazón, con toda tu alma y con toda tu mente. Este es el primero y más grande mandamiento. El segundo es semejante a éste: Amarás a tu prójimo como a ti mismo. Toda la Ley y los Profetas se fundamentan en estos dos mandamientos (Mt 22,37-40).

SALVACIÓN EN CRISTO JESÚS 5. Si decimos que no tenemos pecado, nos estamos engañando a nosotros mismos, y la verdad no está en nosotros (1Jn 1,8). 6. Ante el nombre de Jesús toda rodilla se doble, en el cielo, en la tierra y en el abismo. Y que toda lengua proclame que Jesús es el Señor para gloria de Dios Padre (Filip 2,11). 7. Quien quiera salvar su vida, la perderá; pero quien pierda su vida por mí y por el Evangelio, la salvará (Mc 8,35). 8. ¿De qué le sirve al hombre ganar el mundo entero, si pierde su vida? (Mc 8,36). 9. Si alguno quiere venir en pos de mí, niéguese a sí mismo, tome su cruz y sígame (Mc 8,34). 10. El que come mi carne y bebe mi sangre, tiene vida eterna, y yo le resucitaré el último día (Jn 6,54). 11. Yo estoy con ustedes todos los días hasta que se termine este mundo (Mt 28,20).

MARÍA 12. Dijo María: «Yo soy la esclava del Señor; hágase en mí según tu palabra.» (Lc 1,38). 13. Jesús, al ver a su madre y junto a ella al discípulo a quien más amaba, dijo a su madre: «Mujer, ahí tienes a tu hijo.» Luego dijo al discípulo: «Ahí tienes a tu madre.» Y desde aquella hora el discípulo se la llevó a su casa (Jn 19,25-27).

PALABRA DE DIOS 14. Tu Palabra es lámpara para mis pasos y luz en mi sendero (Sal 119,105). 15. Proclama la Palabra, insiste a tiempo y a destiempo, reprende, amenaza, exhorta con toda paciencia y doctrina (2Tim 4,2). 16. Cuando me llegaban palabras tuyas, yo las devoraba. Ellas eran para mí el gozo y la alegría de mi corazón (Jer 15,16). 17. Me has seducido, Señor, y me dejé seducir por ti (Jer 20,7).

MISIÓN 18. La cosecha es abundante, pero los obreros son pocos. Rueguen, pues, al Dueño de la cosecha que envíe obreros a su cosecha (Lc 10,2). 19. Vayan por todo el mundo y prediquen mi Evangelio a toda creatura (Mc 16,15). 20. ¡Ay de mí si no anuncio el Evangelio! (1Cor 9,16).
