A WEEKLY MESSAGE
FROM DEACON AL AULNER
Greeting Parish Family Members,
We are just a few days away from another election. Of course, as always, many people
have dubbed this one “the most important election ever”. It’s kind of like a Nebraska football
game, the most important game is the one being played today because it’s the one that counts
now. This election is important because it’s the one that will shape things in the near future. It’s
the only one that matters now.
The truth is, all of our elections have been extremely important. Imagine how important
the first Presidential election was. President Washington seemed to be the perfect choice but
the wrong person at the helm then could have undone the great experiment before it had a
chance to get started. The first election of President Lincoln took place just months before the
Civil War broke out and his second during the war. Talk about two important elections. A
different choice may have led to a divided nation with several countries on the North American
Continent and I’m guessing they would not have all gotten along. Imagine the elections that took
place during World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II. All of those elections are still
impacting us today.
The responsibility of the electorate is great. Our choices in this election will affect people
for generations to come as have the choices of past elections. As Catholics we need to
approach this duty prayerfully and with our Catholic faith as our guide. Political parties like to
think they have cornered the markets of truth and virtue; they have not. Truth and virtue are two
of the first casualties of politics. Catholics know that truth and virtue are from God, and we need
to bring them into our decision-making process at this important time.
Mary Seat of Wisdom pray for us!
God Bless You!
Deacon Al
A 'THANK YOU' FROM DEACON TOM & KATHY SCHULTE
To our dear Parish Family,
Kathy and I offer our most grateful “Thank You” to all who celebrated with us the 45th year of my ordination to the diaconate and our shared ministry to our parish as a deacon couple.
A lot has changed in the diaconate, our parish, and the world in those 45 years since I was ordained. But one thing remains; Jesus Christ is still alive and still God’s great gift of salvation to those of us who believe.
Kathy and I have been privileged to have shared our 45 years of diaconate service with the amazing community of Holy Ghost and now St. Bernadette. Your constant faith through all of life’s challenges inspire us and God’s love shines so brightly through each of you.
Thank you to all for your good wishes, cards, and gifts, and a special thank you to all who worked on making the gathering after Mass last week so special. It was indeed more than a celebration for Kathy and I. It celebrated the importance of the ministry of diaconate to our Church.
The blessings of our God to you all,
Deacon Tom and Kathy Schulte

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
As we begin the month of November, let us spend time this month being thankful. Take the time to think about all that you and your family have been blessed with and give thanks. Important things this month; do not forget 8th graders have their retreat on Nov. 13, so 7th graders will NOT have class on 11/13. On Nov. 27 we will not have classes as we will be celebrating Thanksgiving.
Important Dates:
11/6- Family Class with Saints and Smores
11/13- Reconciliation Class and Confirmation Retreat for 8th graders
11/20- Sacrament Classes for Reconciliation and Confirmation
11/27- No Classes- Happy Thanksgiving!
How would you like to bless another family this year with something as simple as prayers? I am looking for parishioners to pray for Parish Religious Education, PRE, families. These families will be learning about the seven sacraments this year and some of them will even have family members making their First Reconciliation/ Communion or Confirmation. There is a basket on the table at the back of church. Please pick a card and pray for this family through our PRE year, now through April. What a wonderful way to share God’s goodness with others…prayer.
Spending Time with the Saints
This year, during our Wednesday evening Family Classes for Religious Education (PRE), we decided to add something new. During the months of September, October, November, February, March, and April, we will be doing Saints and S'mores!
At our Family Classes during these months, we will do our closing prayer acknowledging and praying to certain Saints and then enjoying S'mores!
For each of these 6 classes, we will need graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate bars. If you would like to donate to this part of our program to offset the costs of these items…it would greatly appreciated.
Please contact Sue Reed in the Parish Office or put your donation in an envelope labeled S'mores and place it in the weekly collection basket. Thank you for being supportive of this wonderful program.
Boxes of Joy!
The Parish Religious Education (PRE) and St Bernadette School students are working together once again this year to fill Boxes of Joy. We will fill these boxes with goodies and then they will be distributed to children in Guatemala, Dominican Republic, and Malawi. We want them to have a very Merry Christmas. There will be a list in the back of church on the bulletin board, please help us out and donate some items. A collection box will be in the back as well. Also, it is $9.00 per box to mail so a monetary donation is also greatly appreciated. Contact Sue Reed in the Parish Office for more information.
BOXES OF JOY

VOCATIONS
VOCATIONS
Today kicks off National Vocation Awareness Week. Vocation Awareness Week is an annual week-long celebration dedicated to promoting vocations to the priesthood, consecrated life, and sacramental marriage through prayer and education. It is a time set aside by the bishops in the United States to renew our prayers and support for those who are considering one of these particular vocations.
To celebrate the week, St Bernadette School will have ArchO seminarian Kyle Wozniak speak to them, as well as the School Sisters from Christ the King from the Lincoln diocese.
The 31 Club will also be renewed for the year. Students will be mailing postcards to all of our ArchO seminarians and will receive bookmarks with a daily vocation prayer, “Three Hail Mary’s to Know My Vocation”.
In the next few weeks, other school activities from this special week will also be highlighted. Please pray for our school students and children from our parish family to have open hearts to hear their true calling.
Are you open to being led by the Holy Spirit into the state in life God has prepared for you? If you are in need of resources for marriage or considering a vocation to the priesthood or consecrated life, please contact Father Boyd or email: vocations@archomaha.org.
