All Saints Day

Nov 1, is not a Holy Day of Obligation this year because it falls on a Saturday.  However, that day there will be an All Saints Mass, at 7:30 a.m. in St. Joseph Church, followed by Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, confessions and devotions until 9 a.m.

Finance Corner Last weekend the collection was $3,280. Thank you for your generosity.

Second Collection
The second collection today is for the Altar Society.

Stewardship Corner
We fulfill the commandment to love our neighbor when we exercise good stewardship-joyfully sharing our gifts of life, abilities, and resources to meet our neighbor’s need.

Leave a Legacy
We can’t always see into the future.  It is possible we may outlive those we intend to provide for.  You can make an additional contingency gift to the parish by stating in your will, “In the event that [name of beneficiary] does not survive, I give, devise and bequeath the deceased beneficiary’s gift to St. Bernard Church, Eureka, CA.”  Contact your lawyer on how to make this part of your will.

PLEASE PUT YOUR PARISHIONER # ON ALL CHECKS IF YOU ARE NOT USING ENVELOPES.

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION
Eucharistic Adoration at St Bernard Church on Wednesdays, after the 12:10 pm Mass until 9 pm.

Prayer Line

“Almighty and ever-living God, strengthen our faith, hope, and love. May we do with loving hearts what you ask of us and come to share the life you promise.” (Liturgy) We thank and pray for the members of the prayer line this week in a special way. Mary will be our Prayer Leader this week. Please call her at 443-2435 with your prayer intentions.
