4 June 23, th Ordinary Sunday Page Four Holy Mass: Why It Is Important? "The Mass is the most perfect form of prayer!" Pope Paul VI "For each Mass we hear with devotion, Our Lord sends a saint to comfort us at death." revelation of Christ to St. Gertrude the Great Once, St. Teresa was overwhelmed with God's Goodness and asked Our Lord "How can I thank you?" Our Lord replied, "ATTEND ONE MASS." The Blessed Virgin Mary once told Her faithful servant Alain: "My Son so loves those who assist at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass that, if it were necessary He would die for them as many times as they've heard Masses." "The Holy Mass would be of greater profit if people had it offered in their lifetime, rather than having it celebrated for the relief of their souls after death." Pope Benedict XV A great doctor of the Church, St. Anselm, declares that a single Mass offered for oneself during life may be worth more than a thousand celebrated for the same intention after death. St. Leonard of Port Maurice supports this statement by saying that one Mass before death may be more profitable than many after it. "When we receive Holy Communion, we experience something extraordinary a joy, a fragrance, a well being that thrills the whole body and causes it to exalt." Saint Jean Vianney "The celebration of Holy Mass is as valuable as the death of Jesus on the cross." Saint Thomas Aquinas "If we really understood the Mass, we would die of joy." Saint Jean Vianney "There is nothing so great as the Eucharist. If God had something more precious, He would have given it to us." Saint Jean Vianney "It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than to do without Holy Mass. " St. Pio of Pietrelcina (Padre Pio), stigmatic priest

6 June 23, th Ordinary Sunday Page Six Editorial: Church s laudable role in Chicago s growth Chicago Sun Times Editorials June 9, 2013 Perhaps no non governmental institution has been as central to the growth, success and spirtual well being of Chicago as the Roman Catholic Church. Tens of millions of Chicagoans have followed the church s faith over the decades and, more to the point, tens of millions of Chicagoans have been educated in its schools and universities. It was good news, then, when enrollment in the church s elementary schools increased two years in a row at the outset of this decade, reversing 45 years of decline, and it is a sign of the church s continued vigor that it is embarking on a $350 million fund raising campaign. At a time when others are demanding more government funding for education a goal we share the Archdiocese of Chicago is launching To Teach Who Christ Is, a bold campaign to raise entirely private funds for Catholic education and other parish and church needs. If ever there were a time for Catholics to give back, this is it. Those parish schools represent the church at its best. The archdiocese, which includes Cook and Lake counties, already has raised $82.5 million of the total goal through major gifts. The three year fund raising goal for the parishes is $250 million, with 60 percent of the money raised to remain in the individual parishes and 40 percent to be distributed elsewhere in the archdiocese. In making the announcement last week, Cardinal Francis George made the sort of boosterish statement to be expected from a corporate CEO, but we would not disagree. The Catholic schools of the Archdiocese of Chicago and our faith formation programs make their case in the lives of those transformed by them, George said. The alumni of our schools and parishes are living and working in Chicago, the suburbs and around the world. More than 86,500 children are enrolled in archdiocese elementary and secondary schools, including 30,190 in the city itself. Let s help the good work continue. TO FR. ROBERT PAJOR Our Associate Pastor, Fr. Robert Pajor is finishing his term at St. Ferdinand Parish. His new assignment is St. John Brebeuf Parish in Niles, IL where he will continue his ministry. The Farewell for Fr. Robert will take place this coming Sunday, June 30 after 10:15 Mass in the school activity center. Please stop by to thank Fr. Robert for his four years of devoted ministry to people at St. Ferdinand parish. THINKING OF PRIESTHOOD? Following Jesus demands carrying the cross and walking in his steps. Do you have the courage to be a follower? Trust that Jesus will give you what you need. (Luke 9:18 24) If you have ever considered a vocation to the priesthood, contact the Archdiocese of Chicago Vocation Office at , or go to For information on religious life contact Sr. Elyse Ramirez, OP at or eramirez@archchicago.org, and for the Permanent Diaconate program contact Deacon Bob Puhala at or bpuhala@usml.edu Semi Retired? Retired? Eager to give something back? The Ignatian Volunteer Corps may be for You! Members of this Jesuit service program volunteer in poor and marginalized communities 2 days per week (Sept June), grow deeper in their Christian faith by reflecting and praying in the Jesuit Catholic tradition, and meet monthly with other IVC members and a spiritual reflector. IVC members serve as tutors, employment counselors, food pantry volunteers, elderly companions, hospital chaplains and more! Detailed information is online at (click on Chicago ).

13 June 23, th Ordinary Sunday Page ON CUBICLE WALLS, POPE FRANCIS, AND WHERE S JESUS? Copyright 2013 by John B. Reynolds My employer relocated from Skokie, IL to Elk Grove Village or EGV, in company jargon over the last half of We vacated the Skokie building in waves, with my department, Quality Assurance, being one of the last to head west in late December. But while our desks were now in EGV, my QA colleagues and I spent a lot of time in Skokie in early 2013 because the EGV lab wasn t completed until spring. One day when I was in Skokie for some product evaluation work, I got a call from my co worker LaToya who was at EGV and who was looking for another co worker, Ron. Now I knew that Ron was in EGV because I had actually begun my day there, and get this: his desk is just feet away from LaToya s desk! The high cubicle walls in our new digs, however, preclude face to face vision. Accordingly, in response to her inquiry concerning Ron s whereabouts, my first thought was, LaToya, are you kidding me? He s right next to you! In today s Gospel, Jesus asks his disciples, Who do the crowds say that I am? before putting the query directly to his followers, and this Big Question (perhaps the Biggest Question) still resonates: But who do you say that I am? The disciples had witnessed up to that point in time what we have come to believe about our Lord. They had seen the miraculous catch of fish. They had seen Christ s cleansing of lepers, his healing of paralytics, his calming of the storms at sea. They also had heard him speak with wisdom and authority in the sermon on the plain ( Blessed are you who are poor, for the kingdom of God is yours ) and in parables constructed for their understanding ( and some seed fell on good soil, and when it grew, it produced fruit a hundredfold. Whoever has ears to hear ought to hear ). I believe, therefore, that Peter speaks not only for the disciples that day but for all of us when he answers the who do you say that I am question with, You are the Christ of God. Given this acknowledgement and with LaToya and Ron in mind maybe the question for each of us this day is not so much who Jesus is, but where Jesus is in our lives? I heard somebody on Relevant Radio recently talking about the new pope. The commentator said it is uplifting to see pictures or watch footage of Francis interacting with the poor and the marginalized because the joy on the faces of those in the Pope s company is always evident. Certainly, the commentator theorized, Francis is being Christ to those around him. The commentator went on to say, though, that if we focus instead on the Pope s face, we find great joy there also, and this is because Francis, in turn, sees Jesus in those to whom he ministers. It s easy to see Christ in people like the Pope and the good priests, deacons, and sisters who have uplifted us over the years, but most of us are just everyday people without a formal calling to religious life. And yet we have a calling just the same. For just as we re called to be Christ for others, we re called to see Christ in those around us. So where is Jesus in your life? Are you kidding me? He s right next to you. And me Support Staff Mrs. Dorota Gołda, Parish Secretary Sr. Bernadetta Gościniak, Administrative Assistant Ms. Elizabeth Ceisel-Mikowska, Bulletin Editor Liturgical Bro.
