Pastor's Letter
October 24, 2021
The Thirtieth Sunday in Ordinary TimeMy dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
In the gospel, we hear of the deeply moving encounter between Jesus and the blind man named Bartimaeus. Bartimaeus represents each us, all-men and all-women with particular and numerous weaknesses and needs down through the centuries - into our own time and place. Bartimaeus has the faith to turn to Jesus for an answer. In fact, he repeatedly calls out to Jesus, even though he is rebuked by some and told to be silent by others. He perseveres and Jesus reaches out to him and fulfills his prayerful request by restoring his sight.
Many times, we call out to the Lord to heal the sick and dying. I have known numerous people who have been cured of physical ills through the intercession of Our Lady of Lourdes - several in San Mateo County. Yet we know well that such cures are rare. Nevertheless, though the illness is not removed a peace of heart, mind, and soul comes to the sick and dying in preparation for eternity. It even comes in time to those who grieve the loss of a loved one. full version of Pastor's letter here -
Homebound ministries resumeIHM parish is happy to announce the resumption of two of our very important ministries: the homebound ministry and the ministry to the assisted living facilities in our community. We are ready to bring the Lord Jesus in Word and Sacrament to them, once again. In the coming weeks communion services will take place in a number facilities—courtesy of our volunteers.
