WEEKLY MEDITATION

In today's Gospel we hear Jesus challenge us to love God and our fellow man. It is impossible to dictate or regulate love. Love must spring from the heart. If we live a life of love, then it will not be difficult to love God and our fellow human beings.
Mahatma Ghandi left the legacy of his testament, and the people of India engraved it on a stone tablet. The following words are taken from it: "Man, imagine that you are, in this very moment, in the place of the poorest, most miserable person you have ever met in your life. Stop and ask yourself, is what you are about to do of any benefit to this poor person."  That is the measure of our love of God and our fellow man, and simultaneously the measure of ourselves in relation to the kingdom of God.  We are as close to God, in whom we profess our faith, as we are in our love for one another.

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS

90th ANNIVERSARY SPIRITUAL RETREAT  - As we have announced, a special 90th Anniversary Parish Retreat will be held the weekend of November 8-10. The well-known Croatian priest, Fr. Zlatko Sudac, will conduct this spiritual event that will begin on Friday, continue on Saturday, and culminate on Sunday. We invite our parishioners to set aside these days and encourage everyone to attend. We especially recommend that the young adults of our parish participate in this spiritual renewal. It must be stressed that this spiritual experience is a renewal for St. Jerome Parish. Special admission tickets will be available to parishioners only and can be obtained at the rectory daily, beginning on Wednesday, October 30.  Because of the large crowd that is expected, only ticket holders will be admitted. There is no cost for the tickets. We ask for your understanding of this way of handling our retreat, and look forward to sharing a precious opportunity for parish renewal in fellowship with you.
