Thirty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time
Jesus told his disciples this parable:
“The kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins
who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
Five of them were foolish and five were wise.
The foolish ones, when taking their lamps,
brought no oil with them,
but the wise brought flasks of oil with their lamps.
Since the bridegroom was long delayed,
they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
At midnight, there was a cry,
‘Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’
Then all those virgins got up and trimmed their lamps.
The foolish ones said to the wise,
‘Give us some of your oil,
for our lamps are going out.’
But the wise ones replied,
‘No, for there may not be enough for us and you.
Go instead to the merchants and buy some for yourselves.’
While they went off to buy it,
the bridegroom came
and those who were ready went into the wedding feast with him.
Then the door was locked.
Afterwards the other virgins came and said,
‘Lord, Lord, open the door for us!’
But he said in reply,
‘Amen, I say to you, I do not know you.’
Therefore, stay awake,
for you know neither the day nor the hour.”

NEW! Adult Faith Formation Class
This year’s topic is Understanding the Mass. “No matter how mundane the Mass might seem at any given moment, it is more powerful than we can fully comprehend in this life. None of the saints overlooked the Mass; it was the most important part of their lives. How can we foster such devotion in
ourselves? How can we change our perspective on the Mass so that we don’t treat it as mundane, but as extraordinary? There’s one answer: we need to understand it better. That is why St John Vianney told us, “If we really understood the Mass, we would die of joy.” from The Holy Mass – Good Catholic Digital Content Series”
Adult Faith Formation Classes will begin next Saturday, November 7th, after the Saturday evening Mass and will be held in the Education Building. -
