Solemnity of All SaintsNov. 1, 2015

“Now is the time for a new ‘creativity’ in charity, not only by ensuring that help is effective but also by ‘getting close’ to those who suffer, so that the hand that helps is seen not as a humiliating handout but as a sharing between brothers and sisters. We must there-fore ensure that in every Christian community the poor feel at home” (St. John Paul II, Novo Millennio Ineunte).

Solemnidad de Todos los SantosNoviembre 1, 2015

“Ahora es el tiempo de una nueva ‘creativi-dad’ en la caridad, no sólo a través de asegura-rnos de que la ayuda es efectiva sino también por medio del ‘acercarnos’ a aquellos que sufren, de tal manera en que la mano que ayuda no sea vista como una ayuda humil-lante sino como un acto en el que hermanos y hermanas comparten. Debemos, por lo tanto, asegurarnos de que en cada comunidad cristiana los pobres se sientan en casa” (San Juan Pablo II, Novo Millennio Ineunte).

BASTROP FIRESWe are all aware of the recent Bastrop fires and would like to ask our parishioners to continue to pray for the first responders who are trying to control and extinguish the fires. Also, let us remember those who are in harm’s way and may we continue to ask God’s protection for all persons and property who are threatened by this disaster. Please refer to the Catholic Charities social media page/website for more information on how we can help.

First saturday of the Month is this saturday: A Mass in honor of the Blessed Mother will be offered on November 6th. Mass begins at 9:00 a.m. in the San Juan Chapel and Marian devotions will follow immediately with the exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. Everyone is invited to participate.

dedicación del priMer sábado del Mes: La legión de María invita a cada uno que participe en la dedicación del primer sábado al “Corazón Inmaculado de María” el 6 de noviembre.

News from the Principal’s DeskWow, November is here already! These next several weeks

will be busy with preparations for some major events. On the day we let out for Thanksgiving, November 24th, we will be hosting Grandparents Day. It is an early dismissal day that will begin with a School Mass. Then, we will have the grandparents visit classrooms and join their grandchildren in Deane Hall for a brunch. Next, we have our Christmas programs to get ready for. The PreK-2nd grades have their program on December 14th and the 3rd - 8th grades have their pageant on December 16th. We are selling concessions out at the Trail of Lights in Buda again this year which will take place the second and third weekends in December. Then, in January, we will be having our 2nd Annual Casino Night. So, we have some busy weeks ahead of us!

On Sunday, November 15th, we will be celebrating our first School Mass with the Santa Cruz community at the 11:00 Mass. We are really looking forward to this special day. Our students will serve as lectors, altar servers, and choir members. One of our school families will take the gifts up after the offertory as well. Please join us, if you can.

Have a blessed week,Mrs. Flanagan

Oct. 31 & Nov. 1, 2015 / 31 de octubre y 1 de noviembre, 2015Solemnity of All Saints

The Holy Spirit Moves Men to Explore the Permanent DiaconateHave you recently become aware of a desire to deepen your faith, life, but not sure why? Do you feel that your heart is being moved inex-plicably in a new or bold way lately? Have you felt a greater need to know Christ more intimately, or a growing desire to follow Him more fully, for some unknown reason? For no apparent reason, has your awareness increased recently of the needs of the materially and spiritually poor - and perhaps even sensed a greater desire to respond? Do you live a mature faith, love the Church, and follow Church teaching, but have a nagging sense that there’s something missing?

If you answered yes to some of these questions, and you are a man between 30 and 57, the Holy Spirit might be calling you to explore the permanent diaconate. Does that possibility excite you? Scare you? Puzzle you? Whatever your reaction, talk to your pastor about what’s going on in your heart. He’ll help you decide next steps.

The diaconal formation class of 2022 will begin forming in January 2017. Inquiry sessions are scheduled this year as follows:Nov. 15 - Pastoral Center, 6225 Highway 290 East, Austin, 78723Dec. 13 - A parish in the east of the Diocese (to be decided)With your pastor’s permission, explore diaconal formation at one of these sessions. For more information, call: (512) 949-2459 or email

[email protected].

Celebrate October, the Month of the Rosary, with a Candlelight RosaryEveryone is invited to pray the rosary every Friday at 7:30 p.m. during October at the Marian Shrine of Our Lady of Schoenstatt in Austin.
