The Dedication of the Lateran Basilica – 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time  – November 9th 2025
We are entering into the final weeks of Ordinary Time, and our focus now shifts to the end times.  Today, we consider our belief in the life of the world to come as we hear stories about people at the very end of their earthly lives.
We also focus, with the Feast of St. John Lateran, on God’s temple the Church and how we come today to Mass to give God thanks, praise and to worship Him.
As we move through our Holy Mass today, let our prayer be for the courage to emulate their example as we await the coming of the Lord.
This weekend we have our annual finance talk as well as the finance council will be available in the lobby after all Masses to answer any of your questions.
Additionally, the school is at the table selling raffle tickets to support the school financially.
