ear Parishioners and Visitors,

During the month of November we remember, in faith, all those who have gone before us. Whether family member, friend, neighbor, or co-worker, we remember all those who loved us and were an important part of our lives. We never, ever, forget them and we carry them always in our hearts. We remember them in our prayers and at Mass. We commend them to our merciful God and Father and ask that they be given a place of light, happiness, and peace in the heavenly Kingdom.

O God, You willed that Your only Begotten Son,
having conquered death, should pass over into the
realm of heaven. I pray that all Your faithful departed
servants, who have left this earthly life, may join
Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ,
and gaze eternally on You,
their Creator and Redeemer, in heaven.

Amen.

Have A Great Bethany Beach Week!

Fr. Cocco and I will be leading a pilgrimage to Italy for the Holy Year 2025. Some highlights are: Rome, Montecatini Terme, San Gimignano, Assisi, San Giovani Rotondo, Naples and more. For information, call Denise at Grand View Tour and Travel @ (302) 803-6400.

Extra note of caution: the scammers are at it again. Do not respond to any text or email that comes from me unless you have first sent something to me that requires a response to your inquiry. I will not contact you by email or text asking for money or for you to purchase gift cards. I know so very well how kind and generous the people of this parish are. Sadly, there are some who will try to use that against you. If in doubt, contact the office even if the message says not to inform anyone about this request. Again, ignore any text or email that asks for money or for gift card purchases.

Some items are still needed for the Eucharistic Adoration Chapel, including: Portrait of Blessed Michael McGivney-$3,600; Chapel Chairs- 12 @ $520 each, total $6,240; Prayer Books-6 type 1 Adoration help; 6 type 2 Adoration help, total $400; Chapel Bench-$850; Stand for Tabernacle-approximately $1,500. If you are interested in purchasing one of these items or contributing towards the Adoration Chapel, please be in touch with either Fr. Klevence or the Business Office. Thank you to all those who have already contributed.

Jubilee Prayer

Father in heaven, may the faith you have given us in your son,
Jesus Christ, our brother, and the flame of charity enkindled in
our hearts by the Holy Spirit,
reawaken in us the blessed hope
for the coming of your Kingdom.

May your grace transform us into tireless cultivators of the
seeds of the Gospel.
May those seeds transform from within
both humanity and the whole cosmos
in the sure expectation
of a new heaven and a new earth, when,
with the powers of
Evil vanquished, your glory will shine eternally.

May the grace of the Jubilee reawaken in us,
Pilgrims of Hope,
a yearning for the treasures of heaven.
May that same grace
spread the joy and peace of our Redeemer
throughout the earth.
To You our God, eternally blessed,
be glory and praise
forever. Amen.

Amen.
