"Prepare the way of the lord; make straight his paths" — Mark 1:3

SSVD REFLECTS... In today’s Gospel John the Baptist urges us to “Prepare the way of the Lord,” and this is what Advent is all about. We are called to help prepare the way of the Lord by making the real meaning of Christmas come alive in our own hearts, in our family and to reach out to those in need. Is there a family you know who needs assistance? Please call the Society of St. Vincent dePaul so that together we can help the suffering and poor to celebrate Christmas.

JESÚS DEL GRAN PODER HOY La comunidad Ecuatoriana de Reina de los Ángeles le da honor a Jesucristo como Jesús del Gran Poder. Una celebración se llevara acabo después de la misa de las 12:30 p.m. hoy, 4 de diciembre en el sótano de la iglesia.

Give Thanks by Serving Others

Join us this November for three great opportunities to serve the less fortunate in our neighborhood. Donations of non-perishable food and household items are being sought for our Thanksgiving Food Drive for those in need. Volunteers are needed to serve at a community dinner at neighboring St. Benedict Parish for those who might otherwise eat alone on Thanksgiving. A special collection benefitting the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) will help those living at the poverty line to get on their feet again.

Men's Club Poker Night

LIKE TEXAS HOLD ‘EM?
It’s not Vegas but the Men’s Club will sponsor a no-limit Texas Hold ‘Em Tournament from 6:30 p.m. to midnight, Friday, November 18 at the Voss Center, 4412 N. Western Ave.

Queen of Angels parishioners, school parents and friends are all invited to play. Fee is $50 buy in (limit 60 players); $10 for non-players. Pizza and snacks will be served throughout the evening. Cash bar available.
