One Family in Faith Making Christ Known

June 25, 2017

The Word from Fr. Pat Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, When I was leaving my last parish as an associate and going to the parish I just came from, Notre Dame in Clarendon Hills, I said to the principal of the school, “I hope the children there will be as wonderful as the children have been here.” She is a wise veteran of Catholic education and said to me, “Children are the same everywhere. They will love you once they get to know you.” And they did, of course. And they were wonderful.

right for me. So I worked as a youth ministry director at St. Petronille Parish in Glen Ellyn for about six years. I then had a couple of jobs for about five years each at a computer supply business, where I became the sales manager, and then at a printing firm where my grandfather, father and uncle all worked. I loved all of those jobs, but came to know that I wasn’t doing what God wanted me to do, so in 2001, I began my studies at Mundelein Seminary, graduating and being ordained to the Priesthood of Jesus Christ in 2006, the only one ordained that year.

One of the things of which I’m acutely aware is that My first parish was Saint Raphael in Naperville, where whenever there is change, there is tension. And so as I served as Parochial Vicar for three years. I then went you have been assigned a new pastor for the first time back to Saint Petronille in Glen Ellyn, where I served in a dozen years, I know there is a lot of concern about as Parochial Vicar for a mere year and a half before whether “the new guy” will come in and change being called to be the Pastor at Notre Dame in everything, or have such a different Clarendon Hills. I was there for six point of view that he’ll throw out Are not two sparrows sold and a half years when Bishop everything you’ve worked so hard Conlon asked me to come to Saint for a small coin? to put into place as a parish Mary Immaculate. I am delighted community. I’m acutely aware of it Yet not one of them falls to that as a Pastor, I have been because I have some tensions too. the ground without your privileged to serve at two parishes Will the new community appreciate named in honor of our Blessed my style of leadership? Will I have Father's knowledge. Mother! the time to get to know them before Even all the hairs of your I am here to be part of this we have to do major projects together? wonderful community, and I look head are counted. forward to working with all the But you know what? We’re all So do not be afraid; you various groups and getting to know going to be fine. Yes, you will miss all of you. I’m terrible with names Father David, and yes, I will miss are worth more than many though, so please know that I won’t sparrows. Notre Dame. But we’re still going be offended if you introduce to be fine. We’re going to be fine - Matthew 10:29-30 yourselves to me a few times; please because as Jesus says in our Gospel be patient with me! Since this reading this weekend, “Even all the hairs of your head parish is five times bigger than my last parish, I’m sure have been counted.” We’re going to be fine because it will take some time to get to know you, but I’m also our Lord walks with us as we transition, and he is looking forward to that. I consider it one of the present in every change, if we open ourselves up to greatest joys of my life that I have been called to be him. And because of that, we will come to love each your pastor. other with that love God has given us first. And I don’t know about you, but I’m really looking forward Please also know that you have all been in my prayers to that! since the moment I knew I was coming here, and you will be in my prayers every day. I hope that you will So a little about me: I’m the oldest of three children, also pray for me. It is always my prayer, every day, and I have two sisters. The oldest of them, Sharon, that we would all grow in holiness together. If we do lives with my mother, Julie, in the house I grew up in that, there’s nothing that can’t be accomplished. in Glen Ellyn. The younger of them, Peggy, lives in Winfield with her husband John and her children Julia, So as we enter into transition together, I think that last Danny, Molly and Katie. You’ll probably see all of line from the Gospel quote above says what we need to them from time to time. I know they are looking hear: “So do not be afraid; you are worth more than forward to getting to know you. many sparrows.” God is working in all of our lives. Won’t it be great to find out what he wants us to do I was a “later” vocation. I graduated in 1986 from together? Illinois Benedictine College in Lisle, which is now Benedictine University. I discerned a call to priesthood Yours in Christ and His Blessed Mother, at that time, but ultimately decided the time was not Father Pat Mulcahy, Pastor

Education and Formation (continued) Confirmation Families Explore the Sacredness of Human Life During the 2016-17 school year, families in the Confirmation Program learned about different ways our faith guides us in honoring God’s precious gift of life. Topics included refugees, euthanasia, and the spiritual adoption of an unborn baby. At their final meeting of the year, they celebrated life by generously donating baby items to the Waterleaf Women’s Center, as pictured here. Beloved, let us love one another, because love is of God; everyone who loves is begotten by God and knows God. 1 John 4:7 Registration is open - www.smip.org/265 Strengthened by the Spirit, Called to Action

Parish Outreach in Challenging Times Daybreak Update What is Daybreak?

Daybreak is a homeless shelter run by Catholic Charities located in downtown Joliet. The evening meals for the residents are provided solely by contributions prepared and served from the congregations of local churches and community organizations. This ministry at St. Mary’s has committed to supplying the dinner six times per year along with the provisions for breakfast the following day.

We need you!

Since this is meant to be a parish ministry, we ask that you please consider donating a portion of the meal. Please sign up to donate to the hungry. It truly is a way to help those in need. Being that this date is so close to the holiday please remember to mark your calendar of the date and drop off time.

4th of July meal

Our next meal is Tuesday, July 4, 2017. The drop off time will be slightly different this month. Due to the fact that our meal is on the holiday we will be collecting all donations on Sunday, July 2nd in the commons area before or after all the masses. We will need donations of pasta salad, potato chips, fresh fruit, ice cream toppings, brownies, and 2 liter bottles of soda. A complete list of the necessary items will be included on the poster that will be displayed in the commons beginning Friday, June 16th until Sunday July 2nd.

Thank you!

We would like to take this opportunity to express our thanks to everyone who has cooked, served or donated food. The generosity of the parishioners of St. Mary’s is always overwhelming and we are grateful.

Questions?

Feel free to contact Donna Giancarlo 815-436-7166 or Linda Polnik 815-436-5069.

Liturgy and Worship First Saturday Devotion on July 1 after 7:30 a.m. Mass The devotion of First Saturdays, as requested by Our Lady of Fatima, carries with it the assurance of the graces necessary for salvation at the hour of death. However, to derive profit from such a great promise of Our Lady, the devotion must be properly understood and duly performed. The requirements as stipulated by Our Lady are, on the first Saturdays of five consecutive months: Confession, receive Holy Communion, recite five decades of the Rosary, and keep me company for fifteen minutes meditating on the mysteries of the Rosary, and to do all these things in the spirit of reparation to my Immaculate Heart. Please join us for 7:30 a.m. Mass. The recitation of the Rosary will immediately follow in the Church.

Healing Prayer Service Sunday, July 2, 1:30 pm Join us in the Church for a scripture reading & prayer followed by the opportunity to receive the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick which conveys special graces and strength of the Holy Spirit. June 25, 2017
