St. Luke the Evangelist - Feast Day October 18th St. Luke’s symbol is the ox, a creature known for its strength, reliability, and service to mankind. This is fitting because Luke emphasizes Jesus’ role as both priest (the one making the sacrifice) and the sacrifice itself. Seeing St. Luke as the physician, the traveler, the friend of Mary, the companion of Paul – in a word, seeing him as a human being – provides a fascinating insight into his writings. The products of both the Holy Spirit’s inspiration and Luke’s own authorship, his Gospel and Acts give us a unique look at the Gospel message.St. Luke Pray for Us! ... See MoreSee Less

St Hedwig - Feast Day October 16thSt. Hedwig was a 13th century duchess of Silesia and is a historic patroness of Poland. On her feast day, in that region, there is a bread called Hedwigsohlen (shaped like the soles of shoes) that was historically distributed to the poor of Trebnitz, the location of the Cistercian abbey which her husband founded and she later entered. St. Hedwig led a life of piety and solicitude for the sick and poor, including their religious education. She lived a life of poverty and humility, despite her prominent position. Every day, even in winter, she would walk barefooted, so her feet were in bad shape. A story tells us her husband sent her a pair of shoes, insisting that she not be without them — so she kept them under her arm. The shoe soles, depicted in the bread shape, remind us of her generosity to the poor, and the fact that she sacrificed her own comfortable shoes when walking. St. Hedwig pray for US! ...

Our Lady of the Rosary - Feast Day October 7th Saint Pius V established this feast in 1573. The purpose was to thank God for the victory of Christians over the Turks at Lepanto—a victory attributed to the praying of the rosary. Reflection: The purpose of the rosary is to help us meditate on the great mysteries of our salvation. Pius XII called it a compendium of the gospel. The main focus is on Jesus—his birth, life, death, and resurrection. The Our Fathers remind us that Jesus’ Father is the initiator of salvation. The Hail Marys remind us to join with Mary in contemplating these mysteries. They also make us aware that Mary was and is intimately joined with her Son in all the mysteries of his earthly and heavenly existence. The Glory Bes remind us that the purpose of all life is the glory of the Trinity.The rosary appeals to many. It is simple. The constant repetition of words helps create an atmosphere in which to contemplate the mysteries of God. We sense that Jesus and Mary are with us in the joys and sorrows of life. We grow in hope that God will bring us to share in the glory of Jesus and Mary forever.Lady of the Rosary Pray for US! ... See MoreSee Less
