2 From the Pastor s Desk January 21, 2017 Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ, As a new year begins, I want to assure you of my prayers for you, your families, and your parish communities. I also want to share some important information about Renew My Church. wmlego@gmail.com (773) ext. 29 jdowling42@gmail.com (773) ext. 15 As you may already know, Renew My Church is an archdiocesan initiative that involves all the people of the archdiocese and their faith communities. The goal of Renew My Church is to make our parishes more vital and more sustainable. We do this not on our own initiative but in response to the call of Christ, which was first heard by those disciples recounted in today s gospel. The call is the same as it was in those early days of the Church: to be His disciples and take responsibility for carrying on His mission in our time. The place to start is by working together to make our parishes vibrant communities that form missionary disciples of Jesus. This will also mean being realistic about our limited human and material resources and evaluating how our present structures may need to be organized differently to keep pace with changing realities. A very important part of the process of Renew My Church are the parish groupings that will work to plan for the future and discern where God is leading us. After receiving consultation and feedback from you, the priests of the diocese, and parish pastoral councils, we are announcing the groupings today. Your parish will be part of a grouping that will enable you to assess, plan, and discern how best to meet the needs of the future in a way that is both reasonable and in conformity with God s will for us. Each grouping will have guidance for its process of reflection and discernment. Everything, however, begins with building relationships across parishes in a given grouping. That means getting to know each other and perhaps sharing some common projects or events, such as retreats, lectures, or community service for those in need. With future guidance and facilitation, this will develop in more specific planning and discernment directions. Today, your pastor will share a list of the parishes in your grouping. Renew My Church will undoubtedly involve leaving behind familiar patterns and demand that we move outside our comfort zones. In a word, it will require sacrifice, but that has always been true for the Church whenever we have taken up new challenges. I am convinced that we are up to the task, and willing to do whatever it takes to build our capacity to pass on our faith to future generations. That is what is at stake in the Renew My Church process. I encourage you to become involved and pray for its success. Sincerely yours in Christ, Cardinal Blase J. Cupich Archbishop of Chicago johnsotak@hotmail.com (773) ext. 14 Parish Information Masses 4pm Saturday 6:45 am and 11 am Sunday Confessions 5-6pm Saturday Telephone: (773) A Prayer For Renew My Church Lord Jesus, you speak to us today, as you spoke to holy men and women who have gone before us.in every age and in our own time, you call to us and say: Renew My Church. Pour out the gift of your Holy Spirit upon us, and so enable us to hear you clearly - to listen to each other attentively - to imagine our future boldly - to discern your direction wisely - to persevere in your holy will courageously - to stay together in charity - to surrender our own plans readily - to embrace the greater good - to hand on your gifts to future generations. May we remain in the holy company of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the apostles, and all the saints. May their example and presence inspire us with patient confidence in the work of your grace. We ask this of you who live and reign with the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen We share Christ s light and our faith is deepened as we celebrate the diversity of our Parish.

3 Del Escritorio del Párroco 21 de enero de 2017 Queridos hermanas y hermanos en Cristo, Ahora que comienza un nuevo año, quiero decirles que cuentan con mis oraciones, las que hago por ustedes, por sus familias y por sus comunidades parroquiales. Además de esto quiero compartir cierta información importante sobre Renueva mi Iglesia. wmlego@gmail.com (773) ext. 29 Información Parroquial Sacramentos en Español Misas 8:00AM 1:00PM los domingos Reconciliación 5:00PM los sábados Bautismos el segundo domingo de cada mes a las 2:00PM. Tiene que registrarse en la oficina parroquial. Celebraciones de Bodas y Quinceaños tiene que hacer una cita con un sacerdote para arreglar su boda o su misa de quince años. Favor de no reserve un salón antes de hablar con el sacerdote. Teléfono (773) Como ustedes quizá ya sepan, Renueva mi Iglesia es una iniciativa de la arquidiócesis que involucra a todo el pueblo de la arquidiócesis y a sus comunidades de fe. El objetivo de Renueva mi Iglesia es hacer que nuestras parroquias sean más vitales y más sostenibles. Hacemos esto no por nuestra propia iniciativa, sino en respuesta al llamado de Cristo, que fue escuchado por primera vez por aquellos discípulos mencionados en el Evangelio del día de hoy. El llamado es el mismo que era en aquellos primeros tiempos de la Iglesia: ser sus discípulos y asumir la responsabilidad de llevar a cabo su misión en nuestro tiempo. El punto de partida es trabajar juntos para hacer de nuestras parroquias comunidades vibrantes que formen discípulos misioneros de Jesús. Esto también significa ser realista con respecto a nuestros limitados recursos humanos y materiales y evaluar la posibilidad de que nuestras estructuras actuales necesiten ser organizadas de manera diferente para no quedarse atrás de las realidades cambiantes. Una parte muy importante del proceso de Renueva mi Iglesia son los agrupamientos parroquiales que trabajarán para planificar el futuro y discernirán hacia dónde nos está llevando Dios. Después de hacer consultas y recibir comentarios de ustedes, de los sacerdotes de la diócesis y de los consejos pastorales parroquiales, estamos anunciando el día de hoy cómo quedaron conformados los agrupamientos. Su parroquia será parte de un agrupamiento que le permitirá evaluar, planificar y discernir la mejor manera de satisfacer las necesidades del futuro de un modo razonable y conforme a la voluntad de Dios para nosotros. A cada agrupamiento se le dará orientación para llevar a cabo su proceso de reflexión y discernimiento. Todo, sin embargo, comienza con la construcción de relaciones entre las parroquias que conforman un agrupamiento determinado. Eso significa llegar a conocerse unos a otros y tal vez compartir algunos proyectos o eventos comunes, como retiros, conferencias y servicio comunitario para los necesitados. Una orientación y conducción hacia el futuro nos llevará a direcciones específicas de planificación y discernimiento. El día de hoy, su párroco compartirá una lista de las parroquias que conforman su agrupamiento. Renueva mi Iglesia implicará, sin duda, dejar atrás patrones de conducta que nos resultan familiares y exigirá que nos movamos fuera de nuestras zonas de confort. En una palabra, se requerirá sacrificio, pero esto siempre ha sucedido en la Iglesia cada vez que hemos asumido nuevos retos. Estoy convencido de que estamos a la altura, y estamos dispuestos a hacer todo lo necesario para desarrollar nuestra capacidad de transmitir la fe a las generaciones futuras. Eso es lo que está en juego en el proceso de Renueva mi Iglesia. Los animo a que participen y oro por que tengan éxito. Sinceramente suyo en Cristo Cardenal Blase J. Cupich Arzobispo de Chicago Reflejamos la luz de Cristo y profundizamos nuestra fe cuando celebramos la diversidad de Nuestra Parroquia.

4 Od proboszcza biurka 21 stycznia 2017 Drogie Siostry i drodzy Bracia w Chrystusie, Wraz z nadejściem nowego roku pragnę zapewnić Was o moich modlitwach w Waszych intencjach, w intencjach Waszych rodzin i Waszej wspólnoty parafialnej. Ponadto, pragnę podzielić się pewnymi ważnymi informacjami na temat inicjatywy Odnów mój Kościół. wmlego@gmail.com (773) ext. 29 Informacje Parafialne Msza Sw 9:30am w każdą niedziele Spowiedz 3-cia sobota w miesiącu 17:15 do 6:00 p.m. Sakramenty w języku polskim chrzest, slub itp. Prosze dzwonic na plebanie Telefon (773) Jak z pewnością już wiecie, Odnów mój Kościół jest archidiecezjalną inicjatywą skierowaną do wszystkich członków naszej archidiecezji i do wszystkich naszych wspólnot wiary. Celem inicjatywy Odnów mój Kościół jest wzmocnienie naszych parafii i uczynienie ich wspólnotami bardziej żywotnymi. Nie jest to nasza własna inicjatywa, ale odpowiedź na wezwanie Chrystusa, które najpierw usłyszeli uczniowie przywołani w dzisiejszym czytaniu Ewangelii. Jest nim to samo wezwanie, jakie było obecne we wczesnych dniach Kościoła: być uczniami Jezusa i podejmować odpowiedzialność za opiekę nad Jego misją w naszych czasach. Inicjatywa ta rozpoczyna się od podjęcia współpracy w wyniku, której nasze parafie staną się bardziej żywotnymi wspólnotami formującymi uczniów Jezusa. Oznacza to również bycie bardziej realistycznym w odniesieniu do naszych ograniczonych ludzkich i materialnych zasobów, jak również dokonanie ewaluacji naszych obecnych struktur pod kątem możliwości dokonania ich reorganizacji, dzięki czemu zachowamy pokój w obliczu zmieniającej się rzeczywistości. Ważną częścią procesu Odnów mój Kościół jest grupowanie parafii. Wysiłki związane z tym dziełem będą skierowane na planowanie przyszłości i rozeznawanie kierunku, w którym prowadzi nas Bóg. Po przeprowadzeniu konsultacji, otrzymaniu opinii i komentarzy od księży należących do naszej archidiecezji i od członków rad parafialnych, ogłaszamy dziś grupowanie parafii. Wasza parafia będzie częścią grupy, która umożliwi Wam oszacowanie, planowanie i rozeznanie jak w najlepszy sposób sprostać przyszłym potrzebom zachowując zarówno rozsądek jak i pozostając w zgodzie z przeznaczoną dla nas wolą Bożą. Wszystkie grupy będą posiadały wskazówki pomocne dla przeprowadzenia procesu i dokonania rozeznania. Jednakże wszystko rozpoczyna się od budowania relacji pomiędzy parafiami w określonej grupie. Oznacza to wzajemne poznanie się i być może dzielenie się pewnymi wspólnymi projektami lub wydarzeniami, takimi jak: rekolekcje, wykłady lub inicjatywy realizowane w ramach służby dla osób znajdujących się w potrzebie z lokalnej społeczności. Wraz z przekazywaniem w przyszłości porad i wskazówek ułatwiających wdrażanie programu zostanie rozwinięte bardziej szczegółowe planowanie i rozwinięte zostaną bardziej szczegółowe instrukcje dotyczące rozeznania. Dziś Wasz ksiądz proboszcz ogłosi listę parafii należących do Waszej grupy. Realizacja inicjatywy Odnów mój Kościół będzie z pewnością wymagała pozostawienia poza sobą stosowanych dotąd i znanych wzorców i wychodzenie poza obszar swojego bezpieczeństwa. Krótko mówiąc, będzie to związane z podejmowaniem ofiary, co jest obecne i praktykowane w Kościele od zawsze, za każdym razem, kiedy podejmujemy nowe wyzwania. Jestem przekonany, że jesteśmy zdolni podjąć się tego zadania i jesteśmy gotowi do zrobienia wszystkiego, co będzie konieczne, aby budować i rozwijać nasze umiejętności związane z przekazywaniem wiary przyszyłym pokoleniom. Oto, co jest istotne w procesie Odnów mój Kościół. Zachęcam Was do zaangażowania się w tę inicjatywę i do modlitwy w intencji odniesienia sukcesu. Szczerze oddany Wam w Chrystusie, Kardynał Błażej J. Cupich Arcybiskup Chicago Dzielimy się światłem Chrystusa i nasza wiara pogłębiana jest poprzez świętowanie różnorodosci kulturowej naszej Parafii.

Do the words I hear in church today remain there? How can I allow God s grace to work in me so that I begin to live the Beatitudes and help to evangelize the crowds? St. Vincent de Paul February is promising to be another cold winter month, a time in which the family looks forward to a steaming bowl of macaroni and cheese as a special after school treat for the kids. Mac and cheese is always in demand, especially in the winter, and after our big Christmas Food Distribution, the supply in the food pantry is very low. Consequently we are asking for your help with donations of the following items In February: BOXES OF MACARONII AND CHEESE Please folks, check your donations and make sure that the dates are not expired, as we are unable to use expired products. Your donations can be placed in the box located in the vestibule of the church when you come to Mass, or they can be taken to the Rectory during normal business hours.

In Jesus name...amen. Treasures From Our Tradition Until very recent decades Holy Thursday and Good Friday were centered on personal pious devotions, not public liturgy. In urban America, at least in cities with a significant Catholic population, Holy Thursday was about veneration of the Blessed Sacrament. People were encouraged to walk to seven churches for a visit to each parish s repository, a kind of temporary tabernacle on a side altar, closer in proximity to the faithful than the usual tabernacle on the distant high altar. On Good Friday, the most popular form of devotion was the Stations of the Cross, or a three-hour program of word and preaching beginning at noon. The Holy Thursday seven-church hike was a way of participating in a custom of the city of Rome. Traditionally, each day in Lent was assigned to a particular parish church or basilica in the city. Each week of Lent thus had seven churches, and pious people tried to get to each one of them. The pilgrimage was a symbol of unity and also the journey of faith. Originally, the pope would go to each place for a liturgy, but political strife removed the pope from Rome in With the papacy relocated in France, the custom ceased until Pope Leo XIII expressed interest in restoring it in 1900, and Blessed John XXIII fully restored the custom in By the time Pope Leo began to revive the custom, many American cities had enough parishes and monasteries that the faithful could vicariously participate in the revived tradition of stational liturgies by a very long walk!

Parish Mission Statement We Believe that God is Love, and when we live in love we live in God and God lives in us! Therefore we, the Parish Family of Saint Turibius, dedicate ourselves to living out Christ s Great Commandment: we will love the Lord our God with all our heart, with all our soul, with all our mind, and with all our strength, and we will show our love for God by the way we love and care for one another. To this end, we will respond to our baptismal call, strengthened by the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and empowered by the Holy Spirit. As a Family of Faith that has an Attitude of Gratitude for the gifts God has given to us, we will share our time, our talent and our treasure with each other. We welcome into our parish family all people, because we believe that together we are the Body of Christ and together we can bring the love, peace, forgiveness, healing, and joy of Christ into our community in ways we never could have if we were to remain apart. May all who meet us, who worship with us, who work and play with us, know we are Christians by our love! Sick Calls Please contact the rectory office (x10) to arrange for visits to the sick and homebound. The priests and our ministers of care will make every effort to visit parishioners in the hospital, at home, and in nursing homes. After Hours Emergency (773) Ext. 55
