Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time

From the desk of the Pastor…... Del escritorio del Pastor…... Please forgive my enthusiasm as I explore the powerful thought reflected in Pope Francis’ encyclical: Laudato Si! “Some forms of pollution are part of people’s daily experience.” (#20) Worldwide “exposure to atmospheric pollutants produces a broad spectrum of health hazards….especially for the poor…..and causes millions of premature deaths.” (#20) In re-constructing the rectory asbestos tile was uncovered on the first floor. We knew it was there and encapsulated it according to accepted procedures. The fire revealed that the mastic for the linoleum floors in the storerooms contained asbestos. All of it was properly removed and the house and meeting rooms are free of asbestos. We watch, test, and have specialists remove contaminants from our homes, our schools, our churches. The Holy Father challenges us with the question: who does this for the poor among us? Sometimes we make the answer so complex……yet, as long as we continue to ask the question our focus is positive.

Por favor, perdona mi entusiasmo como exploro la idea poderosa refleja en Papa Francisco encíclica: Laudato Si! "Algunas formas de contaminación son parte de la experiencia cotidiana de las personas." (# 20) en el mundo "la exposición a contaminantes atmosféricos produce un amplio espectro de riesgos para la salud ... .Especialmente para los pobres ... ..y causa millones de muertes prematuras." (# 20 ) En re-construcción de la losa de amianto rectoría fue descubierto en el primer piso. Sabíamos que estaba allí y encapsulados de acuerdo con los procedimientos aceptados. El fuego se reveló que la masilla para los pisos de linóleo en los almacenes contenían amianto. Todo ello se eliminó correctamente y las habitaciones de la casa y de reunión están libres de amianto. Nos ver, probar y contar con especialistas eliminan los contaminantes de nuestras casas, nuestras escuelas, nuestras iglesias. ¿El Santo Padre nos desafía con la pregunta: ¿quién lo hace por los pobres entre nosotros? A veces hacemos la respuesta tan complejo ...... sin embargo, el tiempo que seguimos para hacer la pregunta nuestro enfoque es positivo.

Of many things … … De muchas cosas ... ... CCD registration will be held on Sunday, September 13th. Our CCD classes will begin on Sunday, September 20th at 8:45 am in the lower church hall. Children of Peace School began on Monday, August 24th. A Catholic school has been on this site at Taylor and Wolcott since 1886. Mark your calendars to join us for a special Bears Game/Oktoberfest event on Sunday, September 27th at 3:00 pm in the lower church hall! The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) begins anew in September. If you know of someone interested in the Catholic faith, please ask them to contact one of the priests.

Registro CCD se celebrará el Domingo, 13 de septiembre. Nuestras clases CCD comenzarán el Domingo, 20 de septiembre a las 8:45 am en el salón de la iglesia inferior.

3 "Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person; but the things that come out from within are what defile." In the days of Jesus, this issue was about performing empty external rituals of cleanliness instead of purifying the heart. For most of us, the issue is probably a bit different. Our fixation on externals is not so much with religious prescriptions and practices; instead, our daily obsession tends to be with appearances in general.

In our media-saturated culture, we are extremely tuned in to how things look. We are trained to respond to current fashion trends in clothing, hair, makeup, and accessories. Even bodies, cars, houses, and landscaping all fall into the realm of highly marketed images. The risk for us is to be so concerned with having the right "look" on the outside that we fail to consider what's happening on the inside. Life is about more than what we have or what we parade around for others to see. As human beings we are a unity of body and soul, and if we neglect our souls, then we are neglecting the fulfillment of our human nature. We need to make sure we are not like the Pharisees in today's reading who were too concerned with outside appearances. Jesus tells us in response to them that "from within people, from their hearts, come evil thoughts, unchastity, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, licentiousness, envy, blasphemy, arrogance, folly. All these evils come from within and they defile." This list makes a good starting point for some personal meditation on our interior life. Let's ask ourselves, "Which of the behaviors on this list threaten to defile my soul?" Then, let's ask the Holy Spirit to help purify us of that spiritual ugliness so we can appear beautiful in the sight of God. Religious Education registration will be held, Sunday, September 13, from 8:00 to 10:00 am, in the parish hall. Classes are for children kindergarten through eighth grade, who attend public schools, and whose families are members of Notre Dame Parish or participate at The Shrine of Our Lady of Pompeii. For all new students a copy of their baptismal certificate is required at the time of registration. Both old and new students must be registered at the beginning of each school year. The registration fee this year is $150 for one student or $200 for a family. Classes will be held on Sundays at 8:45 am. Students will be dismissed at 10:00 am to be able to attend the 10:00 am Mass with their families. The first day of class is Sunday, September 20. Registration forms will also be available at the parish office or on the tables in back of the church. All registrations are due on or before September 13. If you have any questions, please call the parish office 312-243-7400.

A special outdoor prayer service to mark the first annual World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, will take place in the Holy Name Cathedral Courtyard, State and Superior Streets in Chicago, on Tuesday, September 1, at 7 p.m. Seating will be provided and well-behaved pets will be welcome at this special, outdoor service. Canticle of the Creatures Saint Francis of Assisi Praised be you, my Lord, with all your creatures, especially Sir Brother Sun, who is the day and through whom you give us light. And he is beautiful and radiant with great splendor; and bears a likeness of you, Most High. Praised be you, my Lord, through Sister Moon and the stars, in heaven you formed them clear and precious and beautiful. Praised be you, my Lord, through Brother Wind, and through the air, cloudy and serene, and every kind of weather through whom you give sustenance to your creatures. Praised be you, my Lord, through Sister Water, who is very useful and humble and precious and chaste. Praised be you, my Lord, through Brother Fire, through whom you light the night, and he is beautiful and playful and robust and strong”.
