SEPTEMBER 15/16

September 11: Patriot Day

911. For years, those numbers simply meant a call for help. Now they also remind us of September 11, 2001, the date of the worst terrorist a ack on the United States of America and one of the deadliest days ever on American soil.

Prayer of Remembrance God of comfort we li to you our prayer on

this 17th anniversary of September 11. We

ask you to surround us with comfort,

protec on and your Divine Providence.

September 11 was a day when we as a

na on lost so many. May we take this me

to honor the women and men, and the boys

and girls who lost their lives. When we

struggle with the ques ons behind these

events, help us to know that we are never

alone. Guide us with the courage to know

that when we stretch out our hands to you,

we feel your embrace in the arms of our

neighbor. May we always remember that

we are one family in this world. Help us to

know that our pain is yours; and the tears of

our family fall on your heart. Guide us as a

na on, and help your people to never forget

how so many laid down their lives for their

friends. Bring us your grace to hear the

small voice of the one crying in the wilder-

ness. Bring those who are suffering your

comfort in our embrace. We ask this

through Christ our Lord, who lives and

reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God

forever and ever. Amen.

SEE BEYOND OUTWARD APPEARANCES

The phrase "Sunday best" has lost much of its meaning in our society today. Some lament the loss of people dressing up for church on Sunday; others think it's a healthy sign that we're as casual in attire gathered before the Lord as we are elsewhere. No matter which school of thought on this topic we belong to, James would probably chastise us. In either case, we are still focused on external appearance, mistaking it for some sort of favored position before God. True, James criticizes the community that favors the rich and well-dressed while ostracizing the poorly clothed, but even more he criticizes the making of distinctions, making choices based on criteria that having nothing to do with the reign of God. James might turn our attention to the reign of God described by Isaiah, in which people are healed and the earth becomes ripe to bear fruit. Jesus today is focused on this reign of God, healing a Gentile man in a region hostile to his Jewish faith, not mindful of the man's origins or clothing or status or ability to repay. Isaiah, James, and Jesus in Mark's Gospel all call us to look more deeply to find where the will of God needs to be done, and has been done, on earth as in heaven.

Dear STM Parishioners, “Much will be required of the person entrusted with much, and still more will be demanded of the person entrusted with more”. Luke 12:48 I have lived a very blessed life, one in which I am eternally grateful for. After many years of asking the Lord, “how can I best serve You, how can I repay you for the may blessings you’ve given me,” I have decided to enter Diaconate Formation for the Diocese of Baton Rouge. This has been a family decision that we took very seriously and one that took many years of consid-eration and prayer. My wife, Judy, and I started attending discernment classes in January, along with other potential diaconate candi-dates. In April we began the application process, and in May we had formal interviews. In June, we were notified by Bishop Muench that I had been ac-cepted as a diaconate candidate. I started classes on August 20 at Franciscan Missionaries of Our Lady University, formerly Our Lady of the Lake College. The role of deacon is a role of service to his pastor as well as his bishop. And today, more than ever, our priests need our help. It is my prayer that I will be able to one day serve the Diocese of Baton Rouge. The formation process will take five years. If God willing, I will be ordained in 2023. I ask that all of you keep me and my family in your prayers as we begin this journey. Please keep our bishops, priests and seminarians in your prayers. And know that all of you are always in my prayers. God bless, Terry Bellon

Sign up for a

PARISHIONER FORUM

with Dr. Greg Brandao Help develop a strategic plan for our

parish community by discussing:

1) What are the "mission-critical" elements of the culture of St. Thomas More that must be preserved? In other words, what’s really good about STM that you particularly value?

(2) In what areas are there opportuni-ties for STM to improve?

(3) How can we partner to maintain the “mission-critical” elements of the culture of St. Thomas More and to enhance the quality of service that we provide to our parishioners?

Parishioner Forums Offered Wednesday, September 12

Friday, September 14 from 11:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.

Prison Ministry Prison Ministry is run by several volunteers, together with other

parishes within the Diocese of Baton Rouge. These volunteers

work together for the betterment of those incarcerated within

the prison systems of East Baton Rouge Parish and beyond.

They strive to provide for the physical, spiritual, social and edu-

cational needs of the inmates as well as their families. Volun-

teers are fully trained through the Diocese of Baton Rouge to

further empower them to serve more effectively. Visiting the im-

prisoned brings hope of new life to those whose mistakes have

cost them their freedom. It is also one of the seven Corporal

Works of Mercy we as Catholic Christians can participate in.

Respect Life Ministry Through prayer, outreach, education and political action, Respect Life Ministry volun-

teers strive to uphold the teachings of the Catholic Church with regards to the protection

and sanctification of life and families. They raise the consciousness of the parish through

the awareness months of October and January, and also maintain a formation program

throughout the year. They also participate in diocesan, local and nationally sponsored

events including the March for Life in Washington D.C., the Louisiana Life March and The

40 Days for Life.

STM Manna Givers Ministry One of the Corporal Works of Mercy we are called to serve as Catholic-Christians is to

feed the hungry. Each month various teams of volunteers from St. Thomas More cook and

serve an evening meal at one of the three St. Vincent de Paul/Bishop Shelter location for

homeless men and women since the shelters have no kitchen facilities. Most teams serve

once a month; some every other month.

Parish Festival The annual parish festival is the most exciting event of the year. Hundreds are called

upon to make this weekend come alive with fun, fellowship and faith. The festival is held

each year the first full weekend in May. Planning begins as early as September to focus on

details such as food booths, games, rides, silent and live auctions and much more. This

tradition has been a success for over 30 years. All are asked to volunteer time and talent

by working in a game or food booth, or by assisting in set up and clean up. See you under

the big tent!

Parish Picnic Both adults and high school youth are needed to assist in this fun day of games and

festivities. The picnic is held on a Sunday in mid-October from 11 am until 3 pm.

(October 28, 2018) Volunteers are needed to assist in set-up the day before, overseeing

games and take down. High school volunteers are needed to run the children’s games, in-

cluding face painting, ring toss, hula hoop and much more.

Monthly food collection takes place next weekend Parishioners are asked to bring food for the poor of Eden Park to

Mass next weekend, Sept. 15-16.

We are reminded that Christian love encompasses care and concern

for all humanity, especially those who in these difficult economic times

may not have enough food for the table. We can help the local poor,

our most immediate neighbors, by providing canned goods and non-

perishable staples to the pantry at St. Paul the Apostle Church.

Donations should be left in the storage chest in the back of the

church before or after next weekend’s Masses. Smaller containers

work best because the food is divided into separate baskets for

distribution.
