of obligation.
Thanksgiving Season approaches, the pressures of preparation, family gathering, feeling of loneliness and stress begin. 5o what do we do? Our lens in life narrows with lack of Eratitude and feelings
We grew up learning, "lt is more blessed to give than to receive" (Acts zo:35). We have an inherent nature to want to give. We are made in the image of God who gave the greatest gift to us, his Only-Begotten Son Jesus. With Jesus as the head of the Church and the members (us) the body of Christ (Ephesians 3:6), how do these human feelings of wanting to give manifests itself in our lives with respect to the churchT

This past Tuesday I had the privilege of attending at Liturgical Discernment service where the Hoiy Spirit was at work.l realized how my gifts of writing and teaching could be used as part of the body of Christ! lrealized also as I washed the feet of another person looking up seeing Christ dying on the cross for us, I had other opportunities to use my gifts. I could be a Hospitality Minister, a Greeter, Usher, Lector, Extraordinary Minister of Hoiy Communion. lcould serve in many different capacities. As we drive up and down parking aisles lsoking for a spot near the store where you plan to buy the gift, look into the rearview mirror. What do you see? Ourselves, we "are" the
pe#ect gift that God created in his image. Giving of our time and talents is all we need to do.

6$SB NEWS Thifiy-second Sunday in Ordinary Time (A) Wis 6:12-16; I T'hes 4:13-18 or 4:13-14; Mt 25:1-13
As we near the end of the liturgical year and prepare for Advent, the readings get us ready for the Second Coming of Jesus by addressing our own final encounter with him. The Church summarizes the last realities each person must reflect on: death, judgment, heaven, and hell. ln short, when we die we will face personaljudgment, lf our response has been to return Jesus'love, the reward will be heaven. But if we reject Jesus, the result will be hell. This should not be a source of anxiety or fear, but rather faith, serenity, and hopeful confidence. lf we are not quite ready, now is the age of mercy, and God's grace abounds for those who seek it. It is a healthy thing to be prepared and wise. All of us know our final encounter with Jesus at the end of life is coming. lt would be foolish to ignore it or not maturely reflect on its implications. Oil is the natural resource mentioned in the Gospel because without the light and warmth that an oil lamp provided, the guests could get lost in the dark or need to abandon the wait because of the cold. As we journey through this life, awaiting the marriage feast of Jesus, our hearts can get Cimmed and icy if we are not lit by the oil of love and the warmth of the Spirit. We don't know the day or the hour when Jesus will come take us into the eternal banquet, but we know for sure that day is coming. The wise guest is the person fueled by the oil of love and ready for any eventuality. As the Boy Scout motto goes-Be Prepared. *Fr.

READINGS
First Reading -Wisdom 6:12-1"6 Wisdorn cannot be bought or borrowed. It cannot be re-designed for easy mastery or application. Wisdom is eamed and learned in the ups and downs of human life. Yet true wisdom comes only to those who seek it. Second Reading

Thessaloninns 4:13-18
As long as we live we have opporlunities to become stronger and to become wiser. Still Paul reminds us that life comes to an end. We dare not put off becoming today the person we want to be forever.
Gospel Reading
- Matthew 25:1-1i
The parable of the ten bridesmaids is.a sad tale about people who hope to borrow what they need to get by in life. The foolish bridesmaids had the opportunity to preparc for the wedding feast, but they failed to do so, to their shame.

Question? Contact Teresa Fredicks @tBOBl 224-2765 Forgiveness Prayer We are often told in life that we should forgive. Holding onto afflictive emotions of hurt, anger, grief and resentment keeps us from being free in our reJationships with others and with God. ln this Forgiveness Prayer practice we begin the healing journey, learning not only how to forgive but also that forgiveness in a gift of love. Contemplative Outreach of Hawaii represents the Forgiveness Prayer workshop on Saturday, December 2,2A17 at Wesley United Methodist Church.

Over here at Sts. Peter and Paul, we are looking to reschedule our young adults hosted Bible study. Please let us know if interested in either. For those.looking for ongoing ways to serve, native English speakers are needed for students trying to learn English, or for those who know basic science/math, assistants are Cesired to aid students trying to get their GED.

Aloha all! We want to thank those that came to last week's YM gathering! lt was great learning about your Patron Saints! Highlights of our gathering AcL 27, 2017: We reviewed "Hallowtide" - All Hallows Eve (Halloween), All Saints day, and All Souls day. The Church offers us a way of thinking about those who have died. On All Saints Day and All Souls Day, we remember that we are members of the People of God. United with God, we are also united with all Christians who have come before us in the Communion of Saints. We watched a brief video about All Saints Day and we were reminded that we do not worship the Saints, we worship God and we (give them venerate respect/honoQ as they pray for us in heaven (just like how we pray for each other on
the Saints
earth).
Everyone shared some interesting facts on their Patron Saints chosen for Confirmation. We played Saints BINGO - we were given pieces of information from saints cards and had to figure out which Saint it was. The gift bags we packed for the children at Kapiolani Hospital will be delivered by our teachers. Mahalo for your gifts and support. We continue to pray for you and your families.
God Bless you all and we look forward to seeing you (ages 13 - 18 years old) on Friday (2nd and 4th Fridays of each month)

the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone" (Matthew 24:36). In spite of Christ's admonition that the day of his Second Coming is known but to God, there have been countless false prophets who have confidently but incorrectly predicted a date for the end of the world. Most of these foolish forecasters based their claims on their misinterpretation of the Book of Revelation. Throughout history, many have attempted to use the Book of Revelation as a timetable. They misinterpreted symbols and numtrers as a forecast of what would happen in their own centurY. Over and over again, such people have used Revelatiotl to predict the end of the world. The worid might end tomorrow, in five biiiion years, or somewhere in between. Jesus tells us we can't know for sure. We are sure, however, that this world will pass away.
