3 From the Pastor s Desk My Dear Parishioners! We still continue with the Archdiocese of Chicago Annual Catholic Appeal Most of us already returned completed pledge forms received from the Archdioces in the mail. Thank you very much for your financial support and the gift of constant prayers in the intention of the Annual Catholic Appeal. I trust that just like in the past, we will meet our designated goal and perhaps go over it! For parishioners and guests who didn t get a chance to submit their commitments, extra pledge envelopes are available in the back of the church. Please know, we need you not only in good times but also in the times of need. Jesus is speaking to all of us: Come, follow Me! Please, do not remain anonymous in your faith, hope, love, trust, and sacrifice! Please, try to identify yourself with our beautiful, vibrant parish! Take courage! The St. Albert the Great School is offering a Tax Credit Scholarships for the school years. Qualified students may receive financial aid through this government funding. The amount of help depends on family s annual income and applicants may receive up to 100% of the financial help. If you hesitated in the past to register your children to a Catholic School because of a financial situation limitations, this may be a good time to "invest" in a quality education for your child. This may be the perfect time to register your son/daughter to the Albert the Great School in Burbank. We all know very well that the public schools are silent on the subject of God, faith, and religion! In today s bulletin, you will find a complete Ash Wednesday Mass schedule (Lent begins Wednesday, February 14th) as well as the Stations of the Cross schedule. Please note that the Stations of the Cross will take place on Fridays at 6:00 pm in English, 7:00 pm in Polish, and 8:30 pm in Spanish. I also invite all of you; parishioners and guests of St. Albert the Great with your families for our famous Lenten Fish Fry Fridays! I am happy that last year, more lovers of our delicious fish dinners supported our parish than in the past. It is important for us to spend some time together as a one parish family (Americans, Irish, Polish, Mexican, Filipino, Italian, German etc.), and continue building mutual kindness, understanding, and support! Please save the dates for our Fish Fry s Fridays. Full menu flyers are available in the back of the church. I also invite all of you to take part in the Outdoor Stations of the Cross on Saturday, March 10th at 7:00 pm. Just like last year, we will begin at Tobin Elementary School in Burbank. Our procession will end with Eucharist in the church. Please, invite your families and friends to join us! A few days ago we began improvement work in the church. I apologize for any inconvenience this may pose, and ask for your patience and understanding. If anyone would like to make a donation toward this project, please contact me or the parish office. May Our Lord Jesus bless all of you in the coming week. Jesus I Trust in You! Fr. Mariusz Our Weekly Offering February 4, 2018 $14, :00PM $2, :00PM 1st Sat.

For more information please call: / Facebook: StAlbertTheGreatCatholicSchool GIVE GOD THE GLORY A curious feature of the first half of Mark s Gospel is the pattern of Jesus working a miracle, then telling the recipient of the miracle to keep still about it. Many theories have been offered: Mark is setting the stage for the great secret revealed when Peter will proclaim Jesus the Messiah at Caesarea Philippi; more skeptical commentators offer that Jesus, fully aware of human nature, knew that the way to spread the news was to tell people to keep it secret. The insight into this secretkeeping that serves us well, however, is that Jesus was initiating his public ministry according to the pattern that Paul describes. He was doing it for the glory of God not for his own benefit, but for that of all. Paul would later write in Philippians that Jesus humbled himself to become like us. And we see this humility at work in today s healing of the leper. Jesus is trying to reveal the presence of God s reign among the people, not so that he himself might receive the glory, but so that God would be glorified through him. Imitating this pattern, which Paul encourages the Jewish and Greek Christian factions in Corinth to do, still serves us well today. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

5 Z biurka Ks. Proboszcza Moi Drodzy Bracia i Siostry Jesteśmy w trakcie trwania Dorocznej Kwesty Katolickiej Większość z was otrzymała automatycznie swoje zobowiązania finansowe bezpośrednio z Diecezji. Z pewnością także większość z was te zobowiązania finansowe odesłała już do naszej Diecezji Chicago. Z głębi serca chcę wam podziękować za wasze modlitewne i materialne wsparcie na rzecz Dorocznej Kwesty Katolickiej. Ufam, że podobnie jak w zeszłym roku tak samo i tym roku nie tylko osiągniemy wyznaczonay nam przez Diecezję cel, ale go też z waszą materialną pomocą przekroczymy! Pamiętajmy, że wciąż w tyle naszego kościoła możemy zabrać ze sobą i wypełnić specjalne kopertki Kwesty Katolickiej. Zachęcam szczególnie do tego tych, którzy nie są jeszcze zarejestrowani w naszej parafii; zachęcam tych, którzy tak licznie modlą się w naszym kościele. Jesteście nam potrzebni nie tylko do tańca, ale jesteście nam potrzebni także do różańca! Proszę was, abyście poczuli się naprawdę odpowiedzialni za Kościół Pana Jezusa i za Jego cząstkę w Burbank! Wy też jesteście powołani słowami Chrystusa: Pójdź za mną! Nie bądźcie więc anonimowi w swojej wierze, nadziei, miłości, ufności, radości i ofiarności! Spróbujcie wreszcie się utożsamić z nasza piękną i żywą parafią! Odwagi! Od nowego roku szkolnego i katechetycznego dzieci i młodziez chodząca do szkół katolickich może otrzymać rządowe dofinansowanie. Wysokość tej pomocy zależy oczywiście od wysokości zarobków rodziców. Niektórzy mogą otrzymać nawet 100 % pomocy finansowej. Jeżeli do tej pory wachałeś się posłać dzieci do szkoły katolickiej bo cię nie było na to stać, to może teraz jest to dobra okazja do zainwestowania w religijne wychowanie swoich dzieci. A zatem nabierz odwagi i poślij od nowego roku szkolnego swoje dzieci do katolickiej szkoły św. Alberta Wielkiego w Burbank. Wiecie dobrze, że w szkołach publicznych milczy się na temat Pana Boga, wiary i religii! W tym tygodniu (14 lutego) rozpoczynamy okres Wielkiego Postu. W dzisiejszym biuletynie parafialnym znajdziemy dokładny rozkład nabożeństw w Środę Popielcową oraz porządek piątkowych nabożeństw Drogi Krzyżowej. Oczywiście we wszystkie piątki okresu Wielkiego Postu zapraszam wszystkich parafian i gości do sali pod kościołem na tzw. obiady rybne. Cieszę się, że już rok temu coraz więcej naszych rodaków uczestniczyło w tych obiadach i w ten sposób wsparło finansowo nasza parafię. Ważne jest to, abyśmy wspólnie (Amerykanie, Irlandczycy, Polacy, Meksykanie, Filipińczycy, Włosi, Niemcy etc.) budowali w naszej parafii jedność, wzajemną życzliwość oraz wzajemne zrozumienie i wsparcie! Wychodząc więc dziś z kościoła proszę was, abyście wzięli ze sobą do domów specjalne ulotki zapraszające was z całymi rodzinami na obiady rybne! Już dziś zapraszm wszystkich do jak najliczniejszego udziału w pleneryjnej Drodze Krzyżowej ulicami Burbank w sobotę 10 marca o godzinie 7:00 wieczorem. Droga Krzyżowa rozpocznie się podobnie jak rok temu przy szkole Tobin Elemantary School w Burbank. Przebiegać ona będzie tą samą trasą. Nabożeństwo Drogi Krzyzowej zakończymy Eucharystią w kościele. Proszę was abyście już dziś zapraszali do udziału w Drodze Krzyżowej swoich krewnych, przyjaciół i znajomych! Kilka dni temu rozpoczęliśmy pewne prace wewnątrz naszego kościoła. Na czas trwania tych prac proszę was bardzo o cierpliwość, wyrozumiałość i życzliwość. Gdyby ktoś z was chciałby finansowe wesprzeć te prace to wszystkich zainteresowanych proszę o kontakt z moją oobą lub z kancelarią parafialną. Niech na drogach codzienności towarzyszy nam Jezusowe błogosławieństwo! Jezu, ufam Tobie! Fr. Mariusz Nabożeństwa Wielkopostne Droga Krzyżowa Piątek o godzinie 7:00 wieczorem Gorzkie Żale Niedziela o godzinie 4:30 popołudniu Zapraszamy na obiady rybne Fish Fry Fridays w okresie Wielkiego Postu (Piątek) od godz. 4:00 do 7:30 pm. Bardzo prosimy o zabranie specjalnych kartek informujących o nich. Do zobaczenia i smacznego! Page 5
