hear about courage and strength. It is not easy to be a

follower of Jesus and take our place in society as a

Christian. Jesus warned anyone who wanted to follow

him that they would need to be brave and strong. The

Holy Spirit will empower us to share our faith with the

world and to stand up for our Christian values of love

and justice.

St. Michael’s Preschool News

Prayer & Reflection— What will attract others to the truth and power of the Gospel? When they

see Christians loving their enemies, being joyful in suffering, patient in adversity,

pardoning injuries, and showing comfort and compassion to the hopeless and

the helpless. Jesus tells us that we do not need to fear our adversaries. God will

give us sufficient grace, strength, and wisdom to face any trial and to answer

any challenge to our faith. Are you ready to lay down your life for Christ and to

bear witness to the joy and freedom of the Gospel?

"Lord Jesus Christ, by your atoning death on the cross you have redeemed

the world. Fill me with joyful hope, courage, and boldness to witness the truth

of your love for sinners and your victory over the powers of sin, Satan, and

death.”

Euchre Anyone? Hello friends! Would you like to get together

either on Monday, Wednesday or Thursday. The

cost would be $.50 and Fountain View Assisted

which day would be your preference) by texting

November 2019 Dear friends in Christ, Nearly 1.7 million households in Michigan could not afford basic household necessities such as housing, child care, health care, food, and transportation in 2017. (2019 ALICE Report, Michigan Association of United Ways) These are our neighbors. Their story is similar to the story of so many others around the country. Families who work but cannot make ends meet. You have the opportunity to help your neighbor through the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) collection. This collection will be taken up in our diocese next weekend, November 23-24. The funds raised in this annual collection help to provide solutions at the grassroots level; empowering people to identify problems, make decisions, and find ways to improve their lives and neighborhoods. In this year’s message for the World Day for the Poor, Pope Francis says, “Jesus who inaugurated his kingdom by placing the poor at the center, wanted to tell us precisely this: he inaugurated the kingdom, but he has entrusted to us, his disciples, the task of carrying it forward with responsibility for giving hope to the poor.” The CCHD collection is a tangible way to respond to this call. This collection is the primary source of funding for the CCHD’s anti-poverty grants and education programs. Our diocese retains 25 percent of what is collect-ed at your parish to help fund local anti-poverty projects. Programs that received grants because of your gen-erosity last year include St. Patrick-St. Anthony’s migrant ministry in Grand Haven, Community EnCompass Youth Empowerment Program in Muskegon, Healthy Homes Coalition of West Michigan’s Parents for Healthy Homes and Catholic Charities West Michigan’s pregnancy counseling and support services program. Organizations funded by the CCHD adhere to the moral and social teachings of the Catholic Church. Your support for this collection makes a difference for our neighbors. Please prayerfully consider how you can help this year. For more information about the collection and those whom it supports, visit http://www.usccb.org. Thank you for joining me in the work of bringing hope to those living in poverty. Sincerely yours in Christ,

Most Reverend David J. Walkowiak Bishop of Grand Rapids
