PAGE 2 From the Pastors Desk + October 31, 2021 Dear Faith Family of Our Lady of Grace, Praised be Jesus Christ…now and forever! Last weekend in our parish pa o we had a good turnout for our Respect Life Celebra on. I want to thank Tessa Michaels and her team for organizing the event. The celebra on consisted of the following ministries that care for the whole person form concep on to natural death: Adop on & Foster care, Health / Mental Health, Men’s Ministry, Oasis – Elderly, English Charis- ma c Prayer Group, Prison-Restora ve Jus ce , Respect Life, Society of St. Vincent de Paul, and Catholic Cemeteries of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. Thank you to all those who have par cipated in the 40Days for Life by praying and being a silent witness outside the abor on provider in Mission Hills. Knowing that “with God, all things are possible,” people of faith and conscience unite in 40 days of prayer and fas ng. Christ told us some demons can only be driven out by prayer and fas ng. The two go hand in hand. Prayer keeps us rooted in the fact that it is our desire to carry out God’s will. Fas ng is a sacrifice that helps us reach beyond our own limita ons with God’s help. Let us recommit ourselves to building a culture of life beyond the month of October everyday is a gi from God to bring life into the world. November is around the corner! The month of November is dedicated to the Holy Souls in Purgatory. The Church commemorates all her faithful who have departed from this life, but have not yet a ained the joys of heaven. St. Paul warns us that we must not be ignorant concerning the dead, nor sorrowful, "even as others who have no hope ... For the Lord Himself shall come down from heaven ... and the dead who are in Christ shall rise.” The Church has always taught us to pray for those who have gone into eternity. Even in the Old Testa- ment prayers and alms were offered for the souls of the dead by those who thought "well and religiously concerning the resurrec on." It was believed that "they who had fallen asleep with godliness had great grace laid up for them" and that "it is therefore a holy and wholeso- me thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins.” This year as a part of celebra ng our faithful departed we will be pos ng banners with their names to be remembered at all the Masses and a candle lit in their honor beginning on November 2nd. Let us also avail ourselves of indulgences that can be gained for the Holy Souls and upon ourselves. A par al indulgence can be obtained by devoutly visi ng a cemetery and praying for the departed, even if the prayer is only mental. One can gain a plenary indulgence visi ng a cemetery each day between November 1 and November 8. These indulgences are applicable only to the Souls in Purgatory. A plenary indulgence, again applicable only to the Souls in Purgatory, is also granted when the faithful piously visit a church or a public oratory on November 2. In visi ng the church or oratory, it is required, that one Our Father and the Creed be recited. A par al indulgence, applicable only to the souls in purgatory, can be obtained when the Eternal Rest (Requiem aeternam) is prayed. This is a good prayer to recite especially during the month of November: Eternal rest grant to them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen. As of right now we have over 200+ names inscribed in our All Souls Enrollment. Join us in praying for the faithful departed this month. We will also be exploring ways on the next few weeks about how we remember the Holy Souls and deepen out understanding of death and purgatory. By the prac ce of Indulgences, the Church places at the charitable disposal of the faithful the inexhaus ble treasure accumulated, from age to age, by the superabundant sa sfac ons of the saints, added to those of the martyrs, and united to those of our Blessed Lady and the infinite residue of our Lord's sufferings. These remissions of punishment she grants to the living by her own direct power; but she nearly always approves of and permits their applica on to the dead by way of suffrage, that is to say, in the manner in which, as we have seen, each of the faithful may offer to God who accepts it, for another, the suffrage or succour of his own sa sfac ons. — The Liturgical Year, Abbot Gueranger O.S.B.

PAGE 3 Mensaje del Párroco + 31 de octubre, 2021 Querida Familia de Fe de Nuestra Señora de Gracia, Alabado sea Jesucristo... ¡ahora y para siempre! El fin de semana pasado en nuestro pa o parroquial tuvimos una buena par cipación con nuestra Celebración de Respeto a la Vida. Quiero agradecer a Tessa Michaels y su equipo por organizar el evento. La celebración consis ó de los siguientes ministerios que cuidan a toda la persona desde la concepción hasta la muerte natu- ral: Adopción y Cuidado de Crianza, Salud / Salud Mental, Ministerio de Hombres, Oasis – Ancianos, Grupo de Oración Carismá ca (Ingles), Jus cia Restaura va, Respeto a la Vida, Sociedad de San Vicente de Paúl y Ce- menterios Católicos de la Arquidiócesis de Los Ángeles. Gracias a todos aquellos que han par cipado en los 40 Días por la Vida orando y siendo un tes go silencioso fuera del proveedor de abortos en Mission Hills. Sabiendo que "con Dios, todas las cosas son posibles", las personas de fe y conciencia se unen en 40 días de oración y ayuno. Cristo nos dijo que algunos demonios sólo pueden ser expulsados por la oración y el ayuno. Los dos van de la mano. La oración nos man ene arraigados en el hecho de que es nuestro deseo llevar a cabo la voluntad de Dios. El ayuno es un sacrificio que nos ayuda a ir más allá de nuestras propias limitaciones con la ayuda de Dios. Volvamos a comprometernos a construir una cultura de la vida más allá del mes de octubre, cada día es un regalo de Dios para traer vida al mundo. ¡Noviembre está a la vuelta de la esquina! El mes de noviembre está dedicado a las Santas Almas del Purgatorio. La Iglesia conmemora a todos sus fieles que han par do de esta vida, pero que aún no han alcanzado las alegrías del cielo. San Pablo nos advierte que no debemos ser ignorantes con respecto a los muertos, ni tristes, "así como otros que no enen esperanza... Porque el Señor mismo bajará del cielo... y los muertos que están en Cristo resucitarán". La Iglesia siempre nos ha enseñado a orar por aquellos que han ido a la eternidad. Incluso en el An guo Testamento se ofrecían oraciones y limostas por las almas de los muertos por aquellos que pensaban "bien y religiosamente con respecto a la resurrección". Se creía que "los que se habían quedado dormidos con piedad tenían una gran gracia puesta por ellos" y que "por lo tanto, es un pensamiento santo y sano orar por los muertos, para que puedan ser liberados de los pecados". Este año, como parte de la celebración de nuestros fieles difuntos, publicaremos pancartas con sus nombres para ser recorda- dos en todas las misas y una vela encendida en su honor a par r del 2 de noviembre. Aprovechemos también las indulgencias que se pueden obtener para las Almas Santas y sobre nosotros mismos. Se puede obtener una indulgencia parcial visitando devotamente un cementerio y orando por los difuntos, incluso si la oración es solo mental. Uno puede obtener una indulgen- cia plenaria visitando un cementerio cada día entre el 1 y el 8 de noviembre. Estas indulgencias son aplicables sólo a las Almas en el Purgatorio. Una indulgencia plenaria, de nuevo aplicable sólo a las Almas en el Purgatorio, también se concede cuando los fieles visitan piadosamente una iglesia o un oratorio público el 2 de noviembre. Al visitar la iglesia u oratoria, se requiere que se recite un Padre Nuestro y el Credo. Una indulgencia parcial, aplicable sólo a las almas en el purgatorio, se puede obtener cuando se reza el Descanso Eterno (Requiem aeternam). Esta es una buena oración para recitar especialmente durante el mes de noviembre: Concédeles descan- so eterno, oh Señor, y deja que la luz perpetua brille sobre ellos. Que las almas de los fieles difuntos, por la misericordia de Dios, descansen en paz. Amén. A par r de ahora tenemos más de 200 nombres inscritos en nuestra Inscripción de All Souls. Únase a nosotros en la oración por los fieles que par eron este mes. También exploraremos formas en las próximas semanas sobre cómo recordamos las Almas Santas y profundizamos la comprensión de la muerte y el purgatorio. Mediante la prác ca de las indulgencias, la Iglesia pone a disposición carita va de los fieles el tesoro inagotable acumulado, de edad en época, por las sa sfacciones superabundantes de los santos, añadidas a las de los már res, y unidas a las de nues- tra San sima Señora y al residuo infinito de los sufrimientos de nuestro Señor. Estas remisiones de cas go las concede a los vivos por su propio poder directo; pero casi siempre aprueba y permite su aplicación a los muertos por medio del sufragio, es decir, de la manera en que, como hemos visto, cada uno de los fieles puede ofrecer a Dios que lo acepta, por otro, el sufragio o socorro de sus propias sa sfacciones. — El Año Litúrgico, Abad Gueranger O.S.B. En el amor misericordioso de Dios, -Padre Marinello Saguin

In 1972 the Indian President said, “Mother Teresa is one of those liberated souls who have transcended all barriers presented by race, THE FIRESIDE religion & nationality. In a troubled world plagued by conflict FELLOWSHIP & hatred, the life that is lived & the work that is carried out Finding a Better, More Meaningful Life by people like Mother Teresa brings new hope for the fu- ture of mankind.” “Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, An old, very sick woman was dying in the street; angry & your actions become your habits, your habits become resentful at her son abandoning her; praying only a Brah- your values, your values become your destiny.” — min (Hindu priest) would come help her, otherwise she Mahatma Gandhi, activist for non-violence. would be rendered impure. The old woman asked Mother Values Teresa, “Are you a Brahmin?” Mother Teresa thought, “Brahmins are people of God who serve God & serve the WEDNESDAY NIGHT people.” So, she replied, “Yes, I am Brahmin. Now let me November 3 — 7:00-8:00 p.m. take you to a place you can get some medical help & a safe place to rest.” With Sister Gertrude, she took the woman to JOIN PARISHIONERS FROM YOUR HOME COMPUT- a home for the dying, where she was cared for.
