Tomorrow, Saturday, October 25, catechesis will be “The End”: The Last Things (eschatology). We will focus on the rise of “The Antichrist” with the help of the world government and what is happening in our Church today. This is not just wild “End-Times Speculation” but meant to give us a genuinely Catholic biblical interpretation and a more acute and Spirit-savvy discernment about the “signs of the times” (today’s Gospel in Luke 12:56). We will begin after Mass in the Lower Level.
We have entire set of Maria Valtorta’s The Poem of the Man-God which can be used for private devotion—available for a donation. (A whole set is not easy to get.) We have one copy of Fr. Donald Calloway’s conversion story, No Turning Back: A Witness to Mercy—it is very inspiring.
Four copies are left of Catholic & Christian: An Explanation of Commonly Misunderstood Catholic Beliefs—the best book I’ve seen that clearly explains the distinctiveness of Catholic doctrines, especially for Christians who misunderstand them. I highly recommend it.
Keep in mind that All Saints’ Day coincides with First Saturday—November 1. It will be a special day. I will explain what Vigil Masses count for what day in a future email.

In Jesus, Mary & Joseph,
