High Mass and Potluck – On October 7, 2018 (first Sunday of October), Fr. Reginald Brocard, OP will be offering a High Mass. It will be the Feast of the Holy Rosary. We welcome everyone to stay afterwards for our usual potluck. Adults and children always enjoy attending our potlucks: interesting conversation and cameraderie for the adults; fun and games for the kids!
Music for today’s Mass – October 7 is the Feast of the Holy Rosary, so we will be singing Mass IX, normally used on feasts of Our Lady, for the High Mass today. The hymns to be sung during this Mass: O Mary of Graces, Salve Mater Misericordiae, Adoro Te Devote, and O Queen of the Holy Rosary.
Pilgrimage to San Antonio Missions – We are organizing a pilgrimage to the San Antonio Missions on Saturday, October 27th at 9:00 AM. This is the day before the Feast of Christ the King. Bishop Zendejas will be offering Mass outdoors near one of the Missions. We will be singing hymns, reciting the Rosary, and offering a pilgrimage to honor Christ the King and implore His mercy and graces. Updates and more details will be announced in the coming weeks.

Epistle Reading (Proverbs 8:22-24, 32-35)
The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his ways, before he made any thing from the beginning. I was set up from eternity, and of old before the earth was made. The depths were not as yet, and I was already conceived. Now therefore, ye children, hear me: Blessed are they that keep my ways. Hear instruction and be wise, and refuse it not. Blessed is the man that heareth me, and that watcheth daily at my gates, and waiteth at the posts of my doors. He that shall find me, shall find life, and shall have salvation from the Lord.

Gospel Reading (Luke 1: 26-38)
At that time the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth, To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be. And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God. Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever. And of his kingdom there shall be no end. And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man? And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the most High shall overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren: Because no word shall be impossible with God. And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word.
