1 May 26, 2019 Sixth Sunday of Easter St. Joseph Catholic Church, 7240 W. 57th St., Summit, Illinois The Eucharist is a window into heaven where we get a glimpse of the heavenly liturgy. The Mass is heaven on earth.

2 Informes del Padre Bob Este domingo, celebramos el sexto domingo de Pascua. La temporada de Pascua continúa colocando ante nosotros misterios más allá de esta realidad y existencia terrenales. En la segunda lectura de hoy, continuamos con la visión mística de San Juan que comenzamos la semana pasada. Una vez más, escuchamos a San Juan hablar sobre una ciudad celestial, la nueva Jerusalén en el Libro de la Revelación. Habla de su visión del templo en la Jerusalén celestial. Es en este templo donde se adora a Dios. "No vi ningún templo en la ciudad porque su templo es el Señor Dios Todopoderoso y el Cordero". San Juan describe cómo todo en la ciudad celestial se centra en el Señor Dios Todopoderoso y el Cordero en la adoración. Participamos en esta adoración celestial cada vez que vamos a misa. La Eucaristía es una ventana al cielo donde vislumbramos la liturgia celestial. La misa es el cielo en la tierra. La liturgia que celebramos en la tierra es una participación misteriosa en la liturgia celestial. Vamos al cielo cuando vamos a misa y esto es cierto en cada misa a la que asistimos. La celebración de la misa es el puente entre el cielo y la tierra. El gran Doctor de la Iglesia, San Atanasio, que vivió entre 296 y 373 dc, enseña esto acerca de la Misa: "Mis amados hermanos, no asistimos a una fiesta temporal, sino a una fiesta eterna y celestial. No estamos en las sombras, lo abordamos en la realidad ". Además, la Primera Oración Eucarística expresa esta gran verdad, cuando el sacerdote dice: "Dios Todopoderoso, oramos para que tu ángel lleve este sacrificio a tu altar en el cielo. Luego, cuando recibamos de este altar el Cuerpo Sagrado y la Sangre de tu Hijo, llenémonos de toda gracia y bendición ". También es evidente en el Prefacio de la Misa. Al final de cada Prefacio, concluimos diciendo, "y así nos unimos a los ángeles y los santos para proclamar tu gloria mientras cantamos: Santo, Santo, Santo..." Del mismo modo, la Constitución del Concilio Vaticano II sobre liturgia sagrada reafirma esta creencia diciendo: en la liturgia terrenal, a modo de anticipo, compartimos esa liturgia celestial que se celebra en la ciudad santa de Jerusalén hacia la cual viajamos como peregrinos y en que Cristo está sentado a la diestra de Dios, un ministro del santuario y del verdadero tabernáculo "(#8). El Dios glorioso que San Juan ve en la lectura de hoy está presente para la Iglesia en tres niveles: la Iglesia Triunfante (los que están en el cielo), la Militante (los que están en la tierra) y la Iglesia Purgante (los que están en el purgatorio). Las tres partes de la Iglesia celebran misa juntos. En cada misa, todos los cielos, la tierra y el purgatorio están presentes en la misa, todos unidos en la misa. Los santos participan en la oración de intercesión de la Iglesia en la tierra y en el purgatorio. Escuchamos a Jesús decir en el Evangelio de hoy que el Padre y Él "iremos a El y haremos nuestra morada con El". Cómo es posible esto? A través de la Santa Comunión. La Sagrada Comunión en la tierra es un anticipo de la Comunión de hoy en el cielo, cuando estemos en unión con Dios (latín: com con, junto "unus" unidad, unión). Las almas en el purgatorio, anhelan esta unión celestial cuando están siendo purificados de los efectos del pecado, por lo que es muy importante que hagamos oración por las almas que han muerto. Por favor rezemos la letanía de María todos los días durante el mes de mayo. Tengan un fin de semana bendecido del Memorial Day. Oremos por las almas de todos los hombres y mujeres del servicio militar, especialmente aquellos que murieron en servicio activo. Que la Santísima Virgen María, Madre de la Buena Ayuda, nos ayude con sus oraciones y que San José ore por nosotros.

3 Z biurka Ks. Proboszcza Dzisiaj przypada VI Niedziela Wielkanocy. Ten szczególny okres wielkanocny stale stawia przed nami tajemnice wykraczające poza naszą obecną ziemską rzeczywistość. Dzisiejsze drugie czytanie stanowi ciąg dalszy wizji świętego Jana Ewangelisty, którą rozważaliśmy w zeszłym tygodniu. Jan znowu opowiada o niebiańskim Nowym Jeruzalem z Apokalipsy. O świątyni w tym mieście, w której oddaje się cześć Bogu, mówi tak: A świątyni w nim nie dojrzałem: bo jego świątynią jest Pan Bóg wszechmogący oraz Baranek (Ap 21:22). Święty Jan opowiada, jak podstawą wszystkiego w tym mieście jest cześć oddawana Bogu Wszechmogącemu. Ta sama cześć, jaką my Mu okazujemy w trakcie każdej Mszy Świętej. Eucharystia jest naszym oknem na liturgię w Niebie. Podczas każdego nabożeństwa, tu na ziemi uobecnia się Niebo. Poprzez liturgię celebrowaną na ziemi, mamy udział w misterium liturgii niebiańskiej. Prawdą jest, że dzięki każdej Mszy, w której bierzemy udział, wstępujemy do nieba. Msza Święta stanowi bowiem pomost łączący ziemię i Niebo. Żyjący w latach naszej ery święty Atanazy Wielki postrzegał Mszę nie jako ucztę ziemską, lecz jako wieczną ucztę niebiańską. Ucztę, która nie odbywa się w sekrecie, lecz naprawdę. Potwierdza to w Mszy także każda Prefacja, którą kończymy słowami: Przeto z Aniołami i Archaniołami, z błogosławionymi duchami oraz wszystkimi chórami niebios śpiewamy hymn ku Twojej chwale, bez końca wołając: Święty, Święty, Święty.... Kolejny raz potwierdziła to uchwalona na Soborze Watykańskim II Konstytucja o Liturgii Świętej, gdzie zapisano: Ziemska liturgia daje nam przedsmak uczestnictwa w liturgii niebiańskiej sprawowanej w świętym mieście, Jeruzalem, do którego pielgrzymujemy, gdzie Chrystus zasiada po prawicy Boga jako sługa świątyni i prawdziwego przybytku (#8). Chwała Boża ukazana św. Janowi w dzisiejszym czytaniu, obecna jest w Kościele pod trzema postaciami: Kościoła Triumfującego (tych, którzy są już w Niebie), Kościoła Czuwającego (tych na ziemi) oraz Kościoła Pokutującego (czyli dusz czyśćcowych). Wszystkie te trzy części Kościoła celebrują liturgię wspólnie. Podczas każdej Mszy, zjednoczone są całe Niebo, cała ziemia i cały Czyściec. Święci uczestniczą w modlitwie wstawienniczej razem z Kościołem na ziemi oraz w Czyśćcu. W dzisiejszej Ewangelii, Jezus mówi: Jeśli Mnie kto miłuje, będzie zachowywał moją naukę, a Ojciec mój umiłuje go, i przyjdziemy do niego, i będziemy u niego przebywać (Jan 14:23). Jest to możliwe dzięki Komunii Świętej. Ziemska Komunia daje nam przedsmak Komunii w Niebie, gdzie będziemy w pełni zjednoczeni z Bogiem. Kiedy dusze czyśćcowe oczyszczane są z grzechu, tęsknią za tą jednością w Niebie. Dlatego nasze modlitwy za dusze w Czyśćcu są tak ważne. Odmawiajcie proszę Litanię do Matki Bożej każdego dnia przez cały maj. Pamiętajmy w modlitwie o wszystkich osobach służących w Siłach Zbrojnych zwłaszcza tych, którzy zginęli na służbie. Święta Maryjo, Matko Nieustającej Pomocy, miej nas zawsze w Swej opiece. Święty Józefie, módl się za nami. Vivat Iesus! Chwała Jezusowi!

4 FR. BOB S BRIEFS Fr. Bob s Briefs We are back where we started. Do you remember? Five weeks ago, we began reading through Jesus Bread of Life Discourse in the sixth chapter of the Gospel of John. At the beginning of John 6, we read, Jesus went across the Sea This of Galilee. Sunday, A we large celebrate crowd the followed Sixth Sunday him because of Easter. they The saw Easter the season signs he continues was performing to place before on the us sick. At that place mysteries and time, beyond Jesus this miraculously earthly reality multiplied and existence. the five In barley the Second loaves Reading and two today, fish to we feed continue 5,000 with people. For the past five weeks, we have heard how this large multitude of people has been constantly been hanging around Jesus. St. John s Now, mystical this week, vision we hear that we how began this last vast week. crowd Once of people again, leaves we hear Jesus St. John and speak go away. about a Many of Jesus' heavenly disciples city, the who new were Jerusalem listening in said, the Book "This of saying Revelation. is hard; He who talks can about accept his vision it?"since of the Jesus temple in knew that his disciples the heavenly were murmuring Jerusalem. about It is in this, temple he said that to them, God is "Does worshiped. this shock I saw you? no temple The words in the I city have for its spoken to you are temple Spirit and is the life. Lord But God there almighty are some and the of you Lamb. who St. do John not believe." describes As how a result everything of this, in the many heavenly of his disciples returned city to their is centered former around way of the life Lord and God no longer Almighty accompanied and the Lamb him. in worship. What a different We participate scene in it this today, heavenly compared to the scene from the previous four weeks. In the previous four weeks, we saw how thousands of people were worship all gathered every time around we go Jesus. Mass. Now, they all leave. Jesus is left by Himself by Sea of Galilee. We read in the Gospel The of Eucharist John today, is a window Jesus into then heaven said to where the Twelve, get "Do a glimpse you also of the want heavenly to leave?" liturgy. Simon The Peter Mass answered is heaven on earth. him, "Master, The liturgy to whom we celebrate shall we on go? You have the words of eternal life. We have come to believe and are earth convinced is a mysterious that you are participation the Holy One of God." In the beautiful, but poignant image, we see Jesus left alone, in except the heavenly by the Twelve, liturgy. His We do only go remaining friends. Jesus stands in the center, looking out at the sunset over the to Sea heaven of Galilee. when we Only go the to Mass, Twelve and remain with Jesus. So, we are back where we started: Jesus alone with the Twelve at the edge of the Seas of Galilee. It is a sad and somber scene as Jesus and the Twelve look out over the this Sea is of true Galilee of every by themselves. Mass we attend. The Where celebration did everybody of the go? This scene from today s Gospel is not just a picture isolated to the past. Does Mass this scene is the not bridge replay between throughout heaven the passage of time? Does this scene not replay in our own time and age? and Where earth. are all the people? Next time you are at church, look around. What do you see? I saw no more than 70 people at The any great of the Doctor Masses of the for the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary last week. The latest statistics show that 80-85% of Catholics do not go to Sunday Mass every week. Just like in today s Gospel, everybody seems to Church, have left St. Jesus. Athanasius, Only a who few lived remain with our Lord. It is very ironic that people do not want communion with Jesus in AD, this life, teaches but this they about want the communion with Jesus in heaven for eternal life. Explain to me how do people Mass: expect "My to have beloved communion brethren, with is God in heaven, if they do not have communion with God beginning here on no earth? temporal That s feast the that culmination we come to, and whole point of Jesus Bread of Life discourse that we have been hearing for but the an past eternal, five weeks. heavenly Jesus feast. gives We us His Flesh and Blood so that He can be in Communion with us. Our Lord do desires to be one with, to be in union (com-munion) with you, me, and everybody. At Mass, you see the priest pour not some display water it in into shadows; the chalice we filled with wine. When doing so, the priest prays: By the mystery of this water approach and wine it may in reality." we come Moreover, to share in the divinity of Christ who humbled himself to share in our humanity. St. the Cyprian First Eucharistic ( AD) Prayer writes, when the water is mingled in the cup with wine, the people are made one with expresses Christ. this great truth, when the priest says, However, "Almighty for God, most we people, we don t want communion with God. We only follow after God, like the pray people in the Gospel, because we want God to give us things. God is like a type of Santa Claus, who is supposed to give me that things your angel in life. may I read take this once somewhere that God is not a Cosmic Concierge who lives only to satisfy each sacrifice and every to one your of altar our in whims. heaven. Yet, that is how we treat God too often in our life. God give me this. God give Then, me that. as we We receive seek from out God this altar to get things from Him. Our God seeks us out to be close to us, to be in communion the with sacred us. The body Latin and root blood of of communion your is communio, meaning "fellowship, mutual participation, or association." Son, The relationship let us be filled that with that every Jesus is seeking with us is different than the relationship that we seek from Him. Jesus grace wants fellowship with us. Our Lord desires to share His Divine life and love with us. He asks the same question that He and asked blessing." the Twelve It is also earlier. "Do you also want to leave?" Do we stay with Jesus or do we leave Him? evident in Please the Preface pray for of the Mass. safety of all who serve us in the military. May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of At Good the end Help, of help every us Preface, with her we maternal care, and may St. Joseph pray for us. conclude by saying, "and so we Vivat Jesus! Live Jesus! join the angels and the saints in proclaiming your glory as we sing: Holy, Holy, Holy... Likewise, the Second Vatican Council s Constitution on Sacred Liturgy restates this belief saying, in the earthly liturgy, by way of foretaste, we share in that heavenly liturgy which is celebrated in the holy city of Jerusalem toward which we journey as pilgrims, and in which Christ is sitting at the right hand of God, a minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle" (#8). The glory God that St. John sees in today s reading is present to the Church on three levels: the Church Triumphant (those in heaven), the Church Militant (those on earth), and the Church Penitent (those in purgatory). All three parts of the Church are celebrating Mass together. At every Mass, all of heaven, earth, and purgatory are present at Mass. We re united in Mass. The saints are engaging in intercessory prayer the Church on earth and in purgatory. We hear Jesus say in today s Gospel that the Father and He we will come to him and make our dwelling with him. How is this made possible? Through Holy Communion. Holy Communion on earth is a foretaste of Hoy Communion in heaven, when we will be in union with God (Latin: com- "with, together" + unus "oneness, union). The souls in Purgatory are longing for this heavenly union as they are being purged of the effects of sin, which is why prayer for souls who have died is very important for us to do. Please pray the Litany of Mary everyday throughout the month of May. Have a blessed Memorial Day weekend. Please pray for the souls of all military service men and women, especially those who died in active duty. May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Good Help, help us with her prayers and may St. Joseph pray for us. Vivat Jesus! Live Jesus!

6 Wednesday evening we held our graduation ceremony for the class of Several awards were presented from different organizations.

The Ladies of the Rosary presented three awards to acknowledge the service and scholarship of three of our young ladies. Recipients were: Madyn Dron, Nyla Momusse, and Katarzyna Galdyn. The St. Joseph Holy Name Society also presented two awards to acknowledge service and academics. Recipient of the George Koran Service Award was Gabriel Govea, and receiving the Holy Name Award for Academics was Samuel Dudlo.

Registration Our open enrollment continues. There is financial assistance available through the Caritas Program and our Pastor s Scholarship. We are particularly interested in enrolling children in our middle and upper grades. Through our title programs we have been able to establish a strong academic program that can meet the needs of all of our children. If you are interested in more information about St. Joseph please call or stop by the school office. I would enjoy speaking to you and giving you a tour of our school. Tours will be available during our Carnival. Queen of Hearts Raffle We congratulate Michael and Carol Michaholski, who won $25.00 after their card #11 revealed the 2 of hearts. Our jackpot begins this week at $4, Tickets are on sale after the Masses, from the school and rectory office. WHO WILL BE OUR NEXT WINNER? Please Help! - This year, opponents want to CUT the Tax Credit Scholarship program in HALF in the state budget. Even worse, the plan would prematurely phase out Tax Credit Scholarships. This budget proposal slashes the program threatening more than 40,000 kids in line for a scholarship, jeopardizing all 7,178 recipients, and immediately denying at least 742 current recipients, we at St. Joseph had 34 recipients with presently 81 children qualifying. You can help us by contacting your representative and asking them not to allow any cuts to the program. To do this, please go to and say yes to SAVING THE TAX CREDIT SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM. Have a great week, see you at the carnival. God Bless.
