27th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Parishioners,

Like the last few Sundays, the readings today speak of a vineyard. It is an excellent time of the year to contemplate a vineyard — vines heavy with grapes waiting to be harvested. However, when Jesus speaks in parables, each element stands for something else. The vineyard we are invited to contemplate today is not just a large field planted with vines, but our very home in the Lord. The fruit it produces is not just grapes or wine, but the kingdom of God made manifest in our world.

The Msgr. Eyraud Knights of Columbus Council 2436 will have their monthly dinner at the KC Home. Hopefully, you pre-ordered your meal. Also, the Ladies Auxiliary will be selling their delicious homemade treats too.

The First Reconciliation Parent Meeting will be on Monday, October 9 th at 7:00 P.M. in the Rectory. At least one (1) parent/guardian of students preparing for First Reconciliation needs to attend the meeting. The meeting will be approximately one (1) hour.

Remember the PUBLIC SQUARE ROSARY will be prayed in the Church parking lot, under the “big tree” near River Road on Saturday, October 14 th at 12 Noon.

Have a Blessed Week!
