Gospel: Mk 13:24-32 Many people in Jesus’ time expected an imminent ending of time, or at least a dramatic ending of the “age” in which they were living. Jesus accepts that expectation, but he calls on his disciples to remain faithful to his teaching, which “shall not pass away” (Isaiah 50:5-9a). One of the “songs of the servant,” this poem describes the faithful Israelite (or perhaps the prophet) as one who has suffered for fidelity to God. Despite such suffering, the servant holds true to faith, knowing that the “Lord God is my help.” Communion Antiphon: Ps 73:28 To be near God is my happiness, to place my hope in God the Lord.

OPEN HOUSE On November 10, St. Jane de Chantal School welcomed dozens of families to the Fall Open House. Each family was greeted by Mrs. Hamilton and then led on a school tour by a current parent. Many families have since submitted applications for the 2019-20 school year. The next school Open House will be held Monday, January 28, 2019. Plan to join us, and visit our classrooms and meet the teachers. KINDERGARTEN TO BROOKEVILLE ACADEMY This week the Kindergarten traveled back in time to the days of the Pilgrims and Wampanoag people at Brookville Academy in historic Brookeville, MD. Students learned about chores from these early pioneers, such as butter churning, milking the cows, pounding cornmeal into flour, washing clothing, and carding the wool. Students learned Native American stories and played a Native American rock game. Everyone agreed they would rather live today, than long ago! FIFTH GRADE TO MOUNT VERNON The fifth grade went on its annual trip to Mt. Vernon last week to learn more about George Washington and colonial America. This trip coincides with their study of the founding of the American republic, fight for independence, and founding fathers.

The website also has a media center, which includes social media tools, a YouTube channel, and apps. SEASON FOR HEALING One of the ways that the Archdiocese of Washington is continuing to accompany survivors is to offer a “One-Day Retreat for Survivors.” This “One-Day Retreat for Survivors“ is an opportunity for survivors to reflect on God’s plan for their lives, healing, and prayer. This day is not therapeutic in nature nor an opportunity for professional counseling, rather it is a day centered on Christ and prayer. The retreat will take place December 1, from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm at a local retreat center. To protect the privacy of those attending the day, the location will not be publicized. There is a brief registration questionnaire; once you complete the questionnaire, ADW staff will personally contact you to discuss further details of the day. The registration PDF and instructions can be found at https://adw.org/outreach-tosurvivors. Questions, contact Deborah McDonald at

STEWARDSHIP The readings today speak of the end of the world and the coming of the kingdom. The bishops’ pastoral on stewardship says clearly that “that ‘life to come’ is in continuity with this present life through the human goods, the worthy human purposes, which people foster now.” May our good stewardship help us to be numbered among the chosen on the last day!
