From the Pastor:

November 1st is the Feast of All Saints and is a

Holy Day of Obligation.

Mass Times:

Vigil - Monday, October 31st at 5:00 pm

November 1st: 6:45 & 8:30 am, 12:00 & 7:00 pm

November 2nd is the Feast of All Souls and is

also the start of our All Souls Novena, a nine-day

prayer for all of our beloved dead. You are

invited to specifically include your own intentions

for the faithfully departed. You can list the names

of those you wish included in this special prayer

by using the envelope in your regular envelope

pack or by using one of the envelopes available in the Narthex.

Beginning the first Sunday of Advent, you will be able to

find the Parish announcements for the upcoming week

on the parish website and available on the parish mobile

app. We will no longer be reading the announcements

at the end of Mass.

So that we can be sure to have all the announcements

available to the parish, they must be submitted to Chris

Simons ([email protected]) by Wednesday

afternoon for the next weekend. If you have not

installed the parish mobile app on your device, just go

to your App Store and search St. Peter Chanel Catholic

Church and you can download it for free. All the

parish weekly announcements will be available on the

front page of the website under Parish Headlines.

In November, we celebrate All Saints and All Souls Day.

While we rejoice in our Communion with the Saints, as

Catholics, we also have a tradition of praying for and

remembering those who have died. For those who die

repentant, but have not made up for their sins or

purified their hearts, the Church believes in a state of

purification after death called Purgatory (from a word

meaning “to purify”). Even though that name developed

only in the 13th century, Christians from the very

beginning manifested their faith in this state of

purification by praying for those who have died. This is

not to say that we judge those who have died, but

rather, we pray for them as an act of love and because

we can pray for them.

We pray with confidence because it all relates to God’s

love and grace, that the souls of the departed be

enfolded in God’s embrace and kept eternally secure.

The Mass, of course, is the absolute best prayer for the

dead. It makes the redemptive sacrifice of Christ

present again on the altar, and in God’s gracious

providence, allows you to ask that this redemptive

power be applied to the one for whom you pray.

Also, those who have died can also pray for you.

Similarly, your prayers for anyone who is already fully

and eternally united to God in love are not wasted. All

prayer is powerful, and in this case, your prayer will

return in the form of unknown and unpredictable

blessings on you and your world.

Today, we wish Fr. Llane our prayers and best wishes

on his new assignment as temporary administrator of

St. Theresa’s in Douglasville. Many of you already knew

that Father would be leaving us in June, for an

assignment as a professor at the Regional Seminary of

St. Vincent de Paul in Boynton Beach, FL, where he will

be teaching and training our future priests. I want to

take this opportunity on behalf of the Archdiocese, to

thank you for your support of all the priests who have

been assigned here at St. Peter Chanel. You are

important in the formation and experiences of our

seminarians and priests.

Until June, Fr. Llane Briese’s address will be:

St. Theresa’s Catholic Church

5626 Shamrock Lane

Douglasville, GA 30135

See you at Mass,

Unbaptized Adults to Celebrate the

Rite of Acceptance with St. Peter Chanel Parishioners!

Twenty-four adults have been

journeying in the RCIA process for

about 10 weeks, in a period of

inquiry, discerning the decision to

become Catholic. During this time

they have been learning about and

sharing their thoughts on who God

is, and how He calls us to respond

to His unconditional love. Nine of

these inquirers are not baptized and

will have the opportunity to

celebrate the Rite of Acceptance on

Sunday, November 13th, at the 9:00

am Mass. The St. Peter Chanel

community will wrap them in prayer

as they publicly declare their

intention to follow Jesus Christ in

the Catholic Church. This step

places them in a formal relationship

with the universal Church, and is

the first gateway in the process

leading them to becoming members

of God’s family, to join us as we

receive Jesus in Word and

Sacrament, in the Mass. Please keep

them in your prayers: Mike,

Barclay, Chris, Leigh, Mariel,

Heather, Daniel, Colin and Eli.
