3 From the Pastor s Desk My Dearly Beloved, We are still continuing with the Archdiocese of Chicago Annual Catholic Appeal Most of you already returned completed pledge forms received from the Archdiocese in the mail. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your financial support and the gift of constant prayers with the intention of the Annual Catholic Appeal. Jesus calls every one of us to take responsibility for His Church and our beloved parish! You may have noticed that the renovation work in our church continues. We had removed the old, damaged carpet in the main aisle of the church, and in its place workers have installed ceramic tiles. One of the center tiles has the "logo" our parish. I would like to thank Mr. Joseph Rapciak, owner of the "Granit Solution 1 Company, Mr. Wojciech Rus for taking on this project as well as Mr. Chris Gronka and Mr. Slawomir Faber who removed mold from the choir loft ceiling and painted the entire choir loft. In addition, this past Tuesday Mr. Jacek Kozlowski, Mr. Lukasz Topor, Mr. Wojciech Chramiec and Fr. Leslaw installed next to the cross two bas-relief sculptures of our Lady of Sorrows and St. John the Evangelist. Mr. Lukasz Topor repaired all cracked stairs in the church and Rogers Hall. May "God bless" them for all this work done just in one last week s time. A very special thank you goes to the Holy Name Society" members for the preparation of some very tasty fish, shrimp and pasta meals during all the Fridays of Lent. Please make sure to take the opportunity and stop by in Rogers Hall every Friday of Lent for a delicious dinner! I invite all of you all to take part in the Stations of the Cross every Friday of Lent. Please remember about the works of mercy. We have a special donation box in the church for your almsgiving. Finally, I invite all of you to participate in the Outdoor Stations of the Cross through the streets of Burbank on March 10th at 7:00 pm. Please bring with you our parish group banners, candles, lanterns, and torches! Next Saturday, February 24th we will a Mass for a special needs children from our SPRED program. This Mass will be celebrated at 5:00 pm in English. Mass in Polish for children with special needs is scheduled for 1:30 pm on Sunday, March 11th. We invite you to participate in these Holy Masses along with our special children, their parents, siblings, and caregivers. Let the time of Lent be a time of getting closer to Jesus suffering on the cross. May this time be also a time of increased prayer, penance, and charity. Jesus I Trust in You! Fr. Mariusz GOD S POWER We are not in our power, but in the power of God. St. Perpetua TRAINING Those who wish to hold the fortress of contemplation must first of all train in the camp of action.

God s faithfulness and goodness serve as examples to us of how to live. Genesis tells the story of Noah and of God s covenant not only with all people, but with all of nature. Never will the cleansing waters of the flood bring their destructive power to all the earth again. The sign, the reminder to both God and nature, is the rainbow in the heavens. The psalm reminds us of this compassion of God, and begs God to remember us, not because of our goodness, but because of God s goodness and fidelity to the promise. God shows us how to be good, not by decree, but by example.
