Dear Parishioners,
Holy Week is upon us. The bulletin contains the schedule of Masses and services scheduled this
week. I encourage as many as possible to participate.
I know that many people have people they love or who they socialize with who have proclaimed
themselves atheists or agnostics. There are others who have left or drifted from Christianity for any number of
reasons. Sometimes these reasons are unknown even to the persons themselves. In any event sometimes people ask
me what they should say. In many ways people drift because they have doubts about the church. Perhaps they have
had bad experiences. In the powerful movie The Way which tells the story of four individuals who travel together
along El Camino de Santiago in northern Spain, there is a scene where one of them explains why he never enters a
church. He is from Ireland and he carries great anger about the church. He says, “Where I come from the churches are
temples of tears. They have much to answer for.” One of the most moving scenes is when, at the end of the journey,
he finally enters the church building of Saint James in Campostelo.
It always causes me pain to know that in the name of the church people feel they have been wounded. The
answer, of course, is Jesus Christ.
One should always begin with the story of Jesus. The church exists to bring us closer to the Lord. Every
sacramental action is an encounter with Christ. WE must begin by inviting people to come to know Jesus. Enter into
the mystery of his death and resurrection. Understand what he says about mercy, about conversion, about sin.
In this holiest of weeks we each should strive to spend time with Jesus. The three days of the Easter Triduum –
Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday – are invitations to encounter the story of Jesus in rich detail. Holy
Thursday is an invitation to see him in the Eucharist and to understand his example of service. Good Friday is a time to
reflect on the love that was so powerful that it was spent for sinners. Easter we celebrate the promise of new life.
It is often said at Christmas that “Jesus is the reason for the season.” Well he is the reason for this season as well.
Come encounter him this week.

HUNGERING TO BUILD COMMUNITY We follow Jesus this
week on our Lenten journey as he enters Jerusalem, a community he
knew well. CRS Rice Bowl asks us to prayerfully enter into our own
communities, to find those who are hungry and thirsty, those who need
our help. How does our Lenten journey motivate us to serve those we
encounter in our daily lives? Visit crsricebowl.org for more.
Rice Bowls will be collected THIS Weekend during all masses. OR, stop by and drop them off in
the main office during the week! Thank you!
Please join us
every morning
at 8:00 in
Church to say
the Rosary.
Please stay after Mass for the

Divine Mercy.

Palm Sunday, March 20, 2016
• The grim story begins with
the words of the happiest man
alive!
• Did the members of the
Twelve know of Judas’ treachery? Why didn’t they tell Jesus?
• There are two trials. The first
is by the leaders of the people of
Jerusalem who consider Jesus to
be a serious threat to their influence with Roman governor. The
second trial is by Pilate and
Herod Antipas. Neither Pilate nor
Herod see any serious danger in
from Jesus, so they rough him up
a bit but spare his life.
• Caving in to pressure from
the Temple mob, they turn Jesus
over to them.
• Along the way to Calvary the
soldiers force a Diaspora Jew,
Simon, a Diaspora Jew from a
city almost a thousand miles
from Jerusalem. Mark refers to
Simon and his family as if they
had become Christians (15: 21).
• Jesus’ last words, “Father,
into your hands I commend my
spirit,” remind us of the references to Jesus as “filled with the
spirit” in the first four chapters of
Luke.
• The only person to recognize
Jesus’ innocence and divinity is
the Roman centurion. Although
later stories call him Longinus,
he is unnamed in the gospels (Mt
27: 54, Mk 15: 39, Jn 19: 34).
Might the centurion be Cornelius

Communion for the Homebound
Ministry of Care is an outreach service of Our
Lady of the Woods Parish to those who are unable to attend mass due to sickness or age. Ministers of Care are parishioners who are commissioned by Our Lady of the Woods and have completed and extensive training program from the
Archdiocese of Chicago.
Our Ministers of Care have been trained to properly administer the Holy Eucharist to
those who cannot come to church. Each minister offers compassion, prayer and
Holy Communion to those who are sick or homebound. They also bring the Eucharist
to Catholic patients in healthcare facilities such as Palos Community Hospital, Advocate Christ Hospital, Peace Village, Circle Inn, Sunrise Assisted Living Residence as
well as homebound parishioners.
If you have someone who is homebound or at one of the mentioned facilities that
would like to receive communion at please contact Michelle Hilliard at the parish office. We will gladly have someone minister to your loved one.
On Saturday, April 30, 2016 we would like to invite you, a
member of Our Lady of the Woods parish, and any friends or
family members to participate in the 24th annual National Rebuilding Day event at our two selected houses in Blue Island.
• What is Rebuilding Together? It is one of the few local organizations
available to assist the elderly, disabled and low-income residents of our
neighborhoods with routine maintenance and repair needs. Helping
hands like yours are essential to sustaining communities and preserving viable housing for homeowners. Rebuilding Together is committed to keeping homeowners “warm, safe and dry.”
• What kind of work is done? Minor plumbing, electrical and carpentry work, interior and exterior
painting, adding grab bars, handrails, security, better locks, outside clean up and minor landscaping.
• Do you need to be a tradesman or have a special skill in order to volunteer? Absolutely not! All you
need is a willingness to help and get a little dirty. If you love gardening you can help outside. If you like
to paint we have plenty of work for you. There is something for everyone!
• In this “Year of Mercy” please consider donating a day of your time to making someone’s life a little
easier.
For more information contact Chris or Carol Czworniak Weybright at 708 388-0897 or [email protected].

Human Trafficking/Modern-Day Slavery
It is abhorrent and almost inconceivable, that today, a century and a half after the Emancipation Proclamation and 65 years since the U.N. adopted the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights, there are an
estimated 36 million children, women, and men worldwide, enslaved in forced labor or sex trafficking.
These tremendous abuses of human rights and human dignity have continued to exist throughout the
world preying on the most vulnerable. These are human beings who are viewed by their traffickers as
nothing more than commodities, something to be bought and sold. Of that 36 million, nearly two million are children that are exploited in the commercial sex industry.
During this season of Lent, let us remember our calling to Catholic Social Teaching:
1.
2.
3.
4.
promote the sacredness of life and the dignity of the human person;
protect human rights, especially for the poor and vulnerable;
protect the dignity of work and the rights of workers; and
live in solidarity with all people as one global family.
Catholic social teaching is a central and essential element of our faith. Its roots are in the teachings of the Hebrew prophets who
announced God’s special love for the poor and called God’s people to a covenant of love and justice. It is a teaching, founded on
the life and words of Jesus Christ. Catholic social teaching is built on a commitment to the poor and vulnerable. This commitment
arises from our experiences of Christ in the Eucharist.
IF YOU SUSPECT HUMAN TRAFFICKING, THE FBI ENCOURAGES YOU TO CALL THE NATIONAL HUMAN TRAFFICKING RESOURCE CENTER HOTLINE AT 888-373-7888.
Jesus said, “I assure you, as often as you did it for one of my least brothers, you did it for me.” Matthew 25:40
