We have had a very hot and humid summer. I know that all of us are looking for the cooler weather of the autumn season. This Sunday morning is the start of autumn. This upcoming Friday at the Daily Mass, our first reading is from the third chapter of the book of Ecclesiastes. This wisdom book proclaims: “There is an appointed time for everything, and a time for every thing under the heavens. A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to uproot the plant. A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to tear down, and a time to build.” The cool weather of the fall will later give way to the colder weather of the winter. The autumn colors of the trees will give way to the barren trees of the winter, then the new life of the spring. Let us welcome the season of autumn this weekend and the seasons of our faith under the direction of the Lord. Father Lincoln.
