FAITHFUL CITIZENS: By our baptism, Catholics are committed to following Jesus Christ and to be salt for the earth, light for the nations. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church reminds us, It is necessary that all participate, according to his/her position and role, in promoting the common good. This is inherent in the dignity of the human person. As far as possible citizens should take an active part in public life. Regardless of political party responsible citizenship is a virtue, and participation in political life is a moral obligation. We thank the following St. James Parishioners who are seeking to provide responsible public service through election on Tuesday:
John Bernardi
Sherman DuBrey
James Facteau
Joe Gerardi
Ellen LaMora
Roman Miner
BAPTISM:Addyson Debra Recore became a member of the Catholic community through the Sacrament of Baptism on October 27th.
CATHOLIC CALENDARS:  Calendars for 2014 indicating the special holy days and saints of the Catholic Church are available for your home or workplace. This year they are on the theme of Christian stewardship.

MARRIAGE TIP: Sometimes the main difference between a happy marriage and a troubled one is preserving an attitude of “goodwill” when one makes a mistake. How does one build goodwill? By constantly looking for the good rather than the fault and creating a “bank account” of positive experiences. Find more Marriage Rx at www.foryourmarriage.org.

         Helping those in need

GLUTEN FREE HOSTS: If you are in need of a gluten free host, simply inform Fr. Deno before Mass, and he will make sure there is one available for you at Communion.

PLANNING FOR DEATH IS NATURAL: Planning for death is as natural for the Christian as planning for life.  As stated in 1 Timothy 5:8, if anyone does not take care of his own, and especially of his household; he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.  Having a Will is good Stewardship.  Take care of your family.
