21st Sunday in Ordinary Time
August 24 2025
"Strive to enter through the narrow gate..."
The gospel asks, "Who will be saved?" When we get to Heaven, God willing, we may be surprised at who is saved and who is not. This is clearly one of the messages of today’s Gospel. Jesus even goes so far to say that some, when they die, will assume they are going to enter into Heaven but will hear our Lord say to them, “I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all you evildoers!” Again, we should take these words to heart.
The “narrow gate” of which Jesus speaks is an image on the challenge to obtaining Heaven. It requires a concerted effort on our part and most importantly the infinite mercy of God. We do have to do our part by intentionally seeking out the will of God and respond generously to Him. This means we have to confess and turn away from our sins and make every effort to fulfill God’s will in our lives.
Let us reflect this Sunday upon the fact that we must all take eternal salvation seriously. If we have become lax in our spiritual life, then let's be reminded by this Gospel as a motivation to change. Let us not allow ourselves to be one of those knocking at the gates of Heaven only to find out that our Lord would not recognize us. Rather, let's do all we can to live the way God intends us to be and our reward will be truly great in Heaven.

KEEPING OUR PARISH CLEAN: A Call to Action from our Ecology Committee (EC)
Keeping Our Parish Clean:
A Call to Action from our EC
**After receiving reports on rodent sighting in the Parish Hall**
As we come together in fellowship, it’s important that we also take responsibility for maintaining the cleanliness of our church environment. After each event, ESPECIALLY those involving food, please ensure that all trash—whether it be compost, recycling, or regular waste—is disposed of properly. Trash and compost bags must be tied securely and placed in the designated dumpsters before leaving.
By keeping our spaces clean and free from waste, we not only protect the health of our community by preventing pests, but we also avoid costly clean-up fees. Let’s all do our part to preserve the beauty and safety of our parish for everyone.
Be on the lookout for the Ecology Committee's (EC) waste management tutorials, coming soon!
Stop by their table to sign up for more information during this weekend's ministry fair.
Thank you for your cooperation!

Also each Friday, from 4:30pm, there's an opportunity to celebrate the Sacrament of Confession. Our refurbished Confessional, provides the traditional screen that separates the priest confessor from the penitent as well as the option for a face to face confession.
Thanks to Deacon Virgil and the Liturgical Arts for making this sacred space for spiritual healing and reconciliation.
