TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION This month, parishes around the country will conduct the “October count,” a measure of aƩendance at Sunday Mass. The measure has been taken for many centuries, and in some European dioceses it is possible to measure the level of engagement in worship by the populaƟon over the course of many centuries. Long ago, it was also the custom to track “Easter duty” by a staƟsƟcal report. Penitents would receive a kind of chit at confession, which they would then turn in at their parish church when they received Holy Communion during Easter Ɵme.
Long ago, of course, Communion was fairly rare in the life of a Catholic ChrisƟan, perhaps only once a year. The chits would be tallied by parish priests and reported to the chancery, which in turn would hold on to the records and include the staƟsƟcs in a report to the VaƟcan every five years. Nowadays, the October count has proved especially criƟcal in the life of our Church as bishops use the figures to measure the vitality of church life, to sketch parish boundaries, and even to decide when to close, merge, or form new parishes. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
RegistraƟon is now open for online for Assembly 2016, taking place on Saturday, November 5th, on the campus of St. Mary’s University. Keynote speakers will be Eduardo Verastegui, Karyme Lozano and Fr. Thomas Mc Carthy. In the spirit of this year’s theme “United As Church” we are requiring all par cipants a ending Assembly 2016 to carpool in groups of no less than three persons per vehicle. Vehicles with less than three persons will not be allowed to park on campus. To foster the spirit of unity, it is Archbishop Gastavo’s desire for all aƩendees to embrace this requirement as a sign of our communion with one another. This three person requirement applies to all vehicles, including those requesƟng accessible parking (vehicles must show handicapped placard) on the St. Mary’s campus for those with disabiliƟes. Register for Assembly 2016 by visiƟng the Archdiocese website at www. assemblysa.org or call 210-734-1911.
Ya estan abiertas las inscripciones en linea para la Asamblea 2016, la cual se llevara a cabo el sabado 5 de noviembre en las instalaciones de la Universidad St. Mary.

No se permiƟra estacionarse en el campus a vehiculos con menos de tres ocupantes (incluyendo al chofer).

Este requerimiento de tres personas aplica a todos los behiculos, incluyendo a aquellos que soliciten estacionamiento preferencial para parƟcipantes con discapacidades (estos behiculos deben portar un cartel de discapacidad).
