THE GIFT OF SALVATION
Naaman and the leper who returned to Jesus saw God’s hand in their healing. Only through God’s intervention could they have been cured. Through this recognition of God’s presence and action in their lives, they grew in faith. For what are you grateful? Pause for a moment to reflect on all of the blessings in your life. God is the source of these many blessings—life, love, gifts, and so much more. Of all the gifts for which we must be grateful, none is as great, or as astounding, as the gift of salvation offered to us through Jesus Christ. Let this sink in, not only in your mind but in your heart. Like Naaman and the leper who returned, allow yourself to be touched by the immense love of God for you.
The family of Marianne Kearney wishes to let the parishioners of Incarnation know that she passed away on September 28, 2022. Marianne and her husband, members of our church since 1965,were the first President(s) of the Incarnation Parents Club and they donated the altar when the church was built. May Marianne find peace in the arms of our Lord.
The Parish Office will be closed on Monday, October 10th for Columbus Day.

EL DON DE LA SALVACIÓN
Tanto Naamán como el leproso que regresó a Jesús vieron la mano de Dios en su curación. Solo a través de la intervención de Dios podrían haber sido curados. A través de este reconocimiento de la presencia de Dios y acción en sus vidas, crecieron en la fe. ¿Por qué estás tú agradecido? Haz una pausa para reflexionar en todas las bendiciones en tu vida. Dios es el origen de estas muchas bendiciones, la vida, el amor, los dones y muchas otras cosas. De todos estos dones por lo s cuales debemos estar agradecidos, ninguno es tan grande, ni tan asombroso, como el don de la salvación que se nos ofrece por medio de Jesucristo. Deja que esto penetre, no sólo en tu mente sino en tu corazón. Como Naamán y el leproso que regresaron, déjate tocar por ese inmenso amor que Dios te tiene.
