TODAY'S GOSPEL: Jesus reiterates the message of Amos, warning of the torment that will face those with wealth and privilege who ignore the plight of the poor. ( St. Beuno's )

PREGO THEME: As Pilgrims of Hope in this Jubilee Year, we pray that we will be ever more attentive to the needs of those around us. We ask the Lord to help us see more clearly where we can use our gifts, and to respond with kindness and generosity. ( St. Beuno's )

SACRED SCRIPTURE: God fashioned man from the soil of the ground, God breathed a breath of life into his nostrils and man became a living being. ( Genesis 2 )

SAINTLY GEMS: Bearing wrongs patiently is one of the principal pursuits of the wise man, for wisdom means dying and rising with Christ, who is the wisdom and power of God. ( Mark P Shea )

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: You must never desist from doing good works for fear you won't be able to meet expenses, just as you use prudence and frugality. (Blessed Mark Scalabrini )

FR. MAYNE'S FUNERAL: Fr. Mayne will be received into St. Mary's, Chorley at 4.00pm. on 30th. September. There will be Evening Prayer at 6.40pm. followed by Mass at 7.00pm. Fr. Dunne will preach. Fr. Mayne will be taken to Coppull for the Funeral Mass at St. Oswald's on 1st. October at noon. Fr. Marsden will preach. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

PAPAL INTENTIONS FOR OCTOBER: For collaboration between different religious traditions.

Let us pray that believers in different religious traditions might work together to defend and promote peace, justice and human fraternity.

OCTOBER OF OUR LADY: October begins on Wednesday. Please urgently pray for World Peace. Pope Leo is making this request of us.

WELCOME TODAY: We welcome the Sacramental Programme candidates and their families to this Holy Mass.

NEXT SUNDAY: We will celebrate Harvest. Please show your appreciation by bringing in lots of food for the Food Bank. When God created the world He gave us sufficient for the needs of all. It is ourselves who have become greedy and selfish.

POPE LEO QUOTES: Our quality of life does not depend on achievement.

OUR CHURCH COUNT: Last Sunday it was 55 which is pretty good when compared with attendances at other very large churches. We are holding our own, considering. Our aim must always be a “Prayerful Community.” We have to take the 'Count' for another three Sundays.

NOVEMBER PIOUS LISTS: I will put the box at the front of the church on Sunday, 19th. October. Thank you.
