10-13 CC EDITION

Dear Carolina Catholic Media Friend,

 

In the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, it has been a time of prayerful introspection and a widespread collaborative outreach for our Carolina Catholic Community.  

 

In today’s edition we focus on:

 

You’ll also find updates from the Synod, the “Cardinal” expansion and Catholic pre-election perspectives you need to know.  

 

As always there’s a full calendar of parish, school, and ministry events and a  look ahead to the October 17 debut of the movie “The Great Warning” where “all will be revealed” including a testimonial from Alan Ames.  

 

We continue moving forward with our plans to put AM1270 Catholic Radio Charlotte back on the air before Christmas.  Your end of year generosity is crucial to achieving this goal.  Please keep this intention in your prayers along with the many others that have taken priority in our family, community, nation and world.  Pax et Bonum!    

 

 

In the peace of Christ,

 

David M. Papandrea, OFS

Synod: A chance to let the Holy Spirit lead

 

Bishop Michael Martin calls on all people to embrace the Synod on Synodality, the Church’s worldwide effort to prayerfully listen to the Holy Spirit and to one another to help guide its mission of proclaiming the Gospel to all people in the third millennium. The multi-year effort that began in 2021 is themed “For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, and Mission.” Bishop Martin shares this message to you and your family:

 

 

My sisters and brothers,

 

On October 2, 2024, the Second Session of the XVI Ordinary General Assembly of the Synod of Bishops began in Rome. On that occasion, bishops from around the world and dozens of religious and lay men and women gathered to reflect on the fruits of the synodal journey that began in 2021 on the theme “For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation, and Mission.” It is a crucial moment for the life of the Church, and I want to encourage each one of you to accompany the work of the Synod participants with your minds, hearts and prayers.

It’s happening. After many years, we are growing our parish home. With your prayers and support, we will build the Monsignor Bellow Family Life Center; a larger Adoration Chapel to accommodate 75 adorers; and a new rectory to bring our parish priests back to campus.

Please pray for the success of this campaign:

O God, our heavenly Father, we know that all we have and are come from you. You have called us to be faithful stewards of your many blessings by growing in Christ, sharing our gifts, serving one another, and connecting in faith.

Send us the Holy Spirit to inspire us to a greater awareness of these blessings and a more profound desire to share them in love of God and neighbor.

May Your blessings come down upon us as we undertake our parish campaign, to provide a larger home for parish events, a larger chapel for Eucharistic adoration, and a campus home for our priests and seminarians.

Help us, by Your grace, to become all that You call us to be that we may continue to love and serve You in this life so that we may be with You forever in heaven. Amen.

All for the Glory of God.
