LETTERS FROM A PASTOR TO HIS PEOPLE
For previous letters go to stjuliana.org/letters
Dear Parishioners, I don't know about you, but I'm a neat freak. I'm very organized and I look to de-clu er and simplify whenever and wherev-er I can.
The Gospel this week thus resonates with me. There were over 600 laws in the Torah. Some laws were good and neces-sary, like "Do not oppress the weak" (Law 18). Some laws were not so essen al, like "Do not bow down before a smooth stone" (Law 51). Some I wish were s ll laws, like "Men must not shave their beards with a razor" (Law 69).
Jesus acts like a neat freak here. He reduces the code to two laws. "You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself" (Ma 22:37-40).
Complexity and clu er can lead to confusion and anxiety. Some of us know
that be er than others. It can be stressful to not know where things are or to live amidst chaos. Christ is the great simplifier. We don't need to worry about fulfilling 613 laws, only two. And they're pre y easy laws, in my mind: love God and love your neighbor.
How simple the path to peace and ease!
Stop by the parking lot today, Sunday, at 2pm for Trunk or Treat, hosted by the SJS Parent Ambassadors. You might see your pastor in a Halloween costume. Other-wise, I hope to see some trick or treaters at the rectory!
Because of Halloween, there will be no Tuesday Night Theology session this week. We will resume next week, November 7th, with a talk on Mary.
Wednesday, November 1st is All Saints’ Day, a holy day of obliga on. All the Masses that day (7am, 8:30pm, 7pm) will be in the church. Our school students will be in a endance at the 8:30am Mass and our Religious Educa on stu-dents will be in a endance at the 7pm Mass. The next day, Thurs-day, is All Souls’ Day. The 7am and 8:30am Mass will be in the chapel, as usual, and we will have a special Mass at 7pm in the church celebra ng all the deceased from our parish who have died this past year. We especially invite the family members of all the de-ceased to a end this Mass, as your loved one's name will be read off and a candle lit in memoriam. Please see in-side this bulle n issue a list of all the deceased.
On Friday we will host adora on in the church from 9am-9pm. Please stop in to pray and sign up for a me slot, if you haven’t already. Going forward, we will hold all-day adora on on the first Friday of each month.
You may have no ced the Sacrament of Reconcilia-on is now being offered in the church, in the confes-
sional box to your le when you enter. Please come to experience our Lord’s healing and forgiveness.
On Saturday, November 4th I will be on Relevant Ra-dio at 10:15am, discussing how God can be found in sec-ular music. This is a follow-up to my Tuesday Night Theol-ogy session last month on classic rock and theology. Yours in Christ, Fr. James

Five hundred years ago on October 31st, Mar n Luther posted his 95 theses on the cathedral door at Wi enburg, thus commencing the Reforma on. The origins of the Reforma on can be traced to well before this event, however, and an important figure in this movement was a fellow by the name of Erasmus of Ro erdam. Without Erasmus Luther could not have arisen. Erasmus translated the New Testament into Greek and cri qued the sumptuous lifestyle of the clergy, especially of the papacy, in his sa re, The Praise of Folly. He wrote about "the philosophy of Christ", exhor ng popes and all Chris ans, for that ma er, to imitate Christ's poverty, tasks, teachings, crosses, and so on. He wrote, "Make Christ the only goal of your life. Dedicate to him all your enthusiasm, all your effort, your leisure as well as your business. And don't look upon Christ as a mere word, as an empty expression, but rather as charity, simplicity, pa ence, and purity—in short, in terms of everything he has taught us."
Erasmus challenged the church to a deeper devo on to Jesus Christ, the Jesus of the Gospels. He also saw an intrinsic connec on between the humani es and religion. Jesus helps us understand culture, and it is through culture that we gain deeper insight into our Lord. It is the principle upon which these Tassel of the Cloak ar cles are based. Without Erasmus, we would not have the image of Jesus that we have today.
The difference between Erasmus and Luther was that Erasmus stayed faithful to the Catholic Church founded by Jesus Christ. Erasmus died in 1536, receiving the Last Rites and Via cum from a Catholic priest and with the words on his lips, "O Jesus, have mercy. Lord, deliver me." Rev. James Wallace
TASSEL OF THE CLOAK
THE
CHRIST IN CHICAGO REFLECTIONS FROM ST. JULIANA PARISHIONERS
In the early 1990s, I was in the midst of a futures trading career and I decided to a end daily Mass for a Lenten season. Once Lent was over I decided to keep this daily rou ne, but before long I was hi ng the snooze bu on and daily Mass was no longer. A er a few months of feeling like there was something missing, I realized it was the Eucharist , the Daily Bread. I commi ed to return to this rou ne. My trading career began to soar and I found myself making the type of money I had always dreamed about. I was on an eleven year run of country club living, Disney vaca ons, and watching Chicago Bulls championships, when all of a sudden I hit a brick wall in my career. I started losing money at a solid clip. Through this difficult me my mornings of daily Mass and Eucharist remained constant. One morning I recall praying to God something like, “Father, what’s going on? Why are you pu ng me through this trial? I don’t know how to do this. Please Help me!” As I was praying, I no ced a prayer card in the pew: Say this prayer every day and mean every word and Jesus will change your life. I thought, “Great, I’ll start saying this prayer and I’ll start making money again.” This prayer is called the “Miracle Prayer.”
It didn’t take too long to figure out that our Lord’s plan was very different. In a very short me, I found myself working at St. Patrick High School and the odd thing was, although my wife and I were barely making enough to survive with four young children and Catholic school educa on, I found myself happier and more fulfilled than I had ever been.
I have con nued to say that prayer every day and I find that the promise at the bo om of the prayer card con nues to ring true. Jesus is con nuing to change my life in profound and powerful ways. I have recently started a new job as an administrator at a new school, Northridge Prep. I love my job and am excited to go to work every day, knowing that I am exactly where God wants me to be right now. If you would like Jesus to change your life in a profound way I highly recommend more frequent recep on of the Holy Eucharist, along with the Miracle Prayer. It’s pre y much a guarantee. Emme McGovern is a high school administrator, father of four, and has been a parishioner of St. Juliana for forty-one years.

YOUR WORSHIP AID
CONFITEOR
I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do, (strike breast) through my fault, through my fault, through my most griev-ous fault; therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin, all the Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God.
GLORIA
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will. We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you, we give you thanks for your great glory, Lord God, heavenly King, O God, almighty Father. Lord Jesus Christ, Only Be-go en Son, Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Fa-ther, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us; you take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer; you are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen.
SUNDAY
READING I: EXODUS 22:20-26
Thus says the LORD: "You shall not molest or oppress an alien, for you were once aliens yourselves in the land of Egypt. You shall not wrong any widow or orphan. If ever you wrong them and they cry out to me, I will surely hear their cry. My wrath will flare up, and I will kill you with the sword; then your own wives will be widows, and your children orphans.
"If you lend money to one of your poor neighbors among my people, you shall not act like an extor oner toward him by demanding interest from him. If you take your neighbor's cloak as a pledge, you shall return it to him before sunset; for this cloak of his is the only covering he has for his body. What else has he to sleep in? If he cries out to me, I will hear him; for I am compassionate."
REAPONSORIAL PSALM: 18:2-3, 3-4, 47, 51
“I love you, Lord, my strength.”
The first reading underlines the call of the men in Israel to care for three groups of vulnerable people: women, orphans, and aliens. In those mes, women depended on their fathers, husbands, and sons to care for them. If they lost their father or husband and had no sons, they were o en reduced to begging for a living. Orphans were children with no legal male guardians. The alien referred not only to those who were passing through the land, but also those who had no rela ves. In the second reading, we find Paul in Thessalonica, a thriving crossroad city in the Roman Empire. As a result of Paul’s anointed preaching, a dynamic Chris an community is established and nurtured. In fact, this small Chris an community becomes a wonderful example for many others, a model for all believers in Macedonia and Achaia. In the Gospel, the Pharisees have an expert in the law raise the ques on fre-quently asked of rabbis in those days: “Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?” Jesus’s answer combines two quota ons from Deuteronomy 6:5 and Levi cus 19:18. Jesus and the Pharisee do not dispute the importance of the law. Their disagreement has to do with emphasis. The Pharisees, who tend to be legalis c, un-derscore compliance to the law. In contrast, Jesus places emphasis on love. For Jesus, love of God and people is more important than obedience to the law. —Deacon Robinson Or z

GOSPEL: MATTHEW 22:34-40
When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together, and one of them, a scholar of the law tested him by asking, "Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?" He said to him, "You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments."
NICENE CREED
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Bego en Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, bego en, not made, consubstan al with the Father; through Him all things were made. For us men and for our salva on He came down from heaven, and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pon us Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Bap sm for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrec on of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

READING 2: THESSALONIANS 1:5C-10
Brothers and sisters: You know what sort of people we were among you for your sake. And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, receiving the word in great afflic on, with joy from the Holy Spirit, so that you became a model for all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia. For from you the word of the Lord has sounded forth not only in Macedonia and in Achaia, but in every place your faith in God has gone forth, so that we have no need to say anything. For they themselves openly declare about us what sort of recep on we had among you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God and to await his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus, who delivers us from the coming wrath.

WORSHIP AID FOR CHILDREN
DEAR CHILDREN & PARENTS We are so happy you are here at Saint Juliana for Mass! We encourage you to sit up in the front pews so you can see what is happening. Also feel free to sit up in the balcony. Parents, don’t worry if you come in late or need to go to the back for a meout, and especially don’t worry if you make noise during the service. Your presence adds so much to our community. Children, feel free to use this page to color during Mass and take home with you. We hope your family experiences Jesus!
