14TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME JULY 3, 2016 Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish 1775 Grove St. Glenview IL 60025 Parish Office 847-729-1525 olphglenview.org seek, share, rejoice - pastor's reflection Come and see… Go and tell Father Isaac Lara Thoughts on Today's Gospel In today’s Gospel, we hear Jesus inviting his disciples to be evangelizers. “The harvest is abundant,” Jesus says. But those who are willing to invite others to a deeper relationship with the Lord are few. Good stewards who are willing to witness their Catholic faith to others know they are “like lambs among wolves.” They are encouraged to be gentle, patient and loving, knowing they may face rejection and even fierce opposition. The Year of Mercy invites us to be better stewards of our faith, to give positive, courageous, joyful witness to others who have turned away from their relationship with Jesus. Is there someone we should be reaching out to this week? © 2016 International Catholic Stewardship Council 2 In John 1: 37-39, we read: “the two disciples heard what he [John the Baptist] was saying and followed Jesus. Jesus turned around, saw them following him and said, what do you want? They answered, Rabbi -which means Teacher- where do you live? He replied, Come and see; so they went and saw where he lived, and stayed with him that day.” I think, there is a close connection between this passage from John and the gospel for this Sunday. Luke chapter 10 tells us: “At that time the Lord appointed seventy-two others whom he sent ahead of him in pairs… Jesus said, whatever town you enter… cure the sick in it and say to them, 'The kingdom of God is at hand for you.” We are called by Jesus to come every Sunday for an encounter with him in the sacrament of the Eucharist. So, Sunday after Sunday, we come and see the wonders of the Lord. Every time we participate in the sacraments our sins are forgiven; we are given the Holy Spirit; we learn from the Word of God; we worship together; we receive peace in our lives; we grow closer to God; we gather in fellowship with our brothers and sisters; we partake in the heavenly banquet, etc. We all have seen how God works in our lives, sometimes in the strangest ways. Although coming and seeing is an essential part of our faith, the gospel does not end there but rather it commands us also to go and tell. “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations (Mt 28, 19).” “They went forth and preach everywhere (Mk 16, 20).” We are all sent to proclaim the kingdom of God. It may seem like a general statement but it is very real in our everyday life. So, break the silence and tell the great story of Jesus. Tell the great story of Jesus to your children before going to bed, tell the great story of Jesus to your family before meals, tell the great July 3, 2016 • olphglenview.org story of Jesus to your neighbors while watering your lawn, tell the great story of Jesus to your coworkers when they seem open to it, tell the great story of Jesus everywhere and all the time. Yes, we are called to go and tell the great story of Jesus by our words and actions. It is a great responsibility but also a wonderful privilege. Our parish community is filled with inspiring people who are telling the good news every day. It comes to mind the new members of the Parish Pastoral Council (PPC): Cathy Condon, Laura Flentye, Mara Lindsay and Rob Orr; thank you to all of you for serving the parish through the PPC; Fr. Hickey and those who for three weeks read and reflected on the apostolic exhortation from Pope Francis Amoris Laetitia; those who were part of the Men’s Club golf outing last week, the time and effort the team put into it for it to be a success; those who prayed with the community the novena to Our Lady of Perpetual Help and celebrated the lovely feast on June 27th; the Knights of Columbus who just installed new officers for the Dussman council last week. These are some examples in which our parish community goes and tells the great story of the Gospel. It is truly a privilege to be the bearers of that good news. Dear parishioners, we are called to go and tell the wonders of our faith, the beauty of our hope, the sweetness of our joy and the love we have for our God. Just as the 72 disciples were sent where Jesus was intended to go, we are sent to bring the same message to wherever we go. Many of you may be away for the 4th of July weekend or may be visiting family or friends. Enjoy the well-deserved summer weather, get some rest and remember to have some time for God too. Happy 4th of July! Fr. Isaac seek, share, rejoice - spiritual engagement Celebrate Fr. Paddy's 50th Anniversary of his Ordination Saturday, July 16 - 5:00 p.m. Mass After Mass, the Women’s Club is serving refreshments in the South Gathering Space. Please come and help to make this a special day for Fr. Paddy. EVOLVE Adult Education Ministry Presents Jim Kenney Religious and Political Extremists and the War on Science Saturday, July 16 - 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. in McDonnell Hall How did it happen in America? How did the world's leader in scientific research and achievement become the stronghold of a powerful and dangerous anti-science movement? We'll look at the influence of powerful figures from America's corporate, political and evangelical circles who could be described as fundamentalist Christians and who employ and distort religious arguments and use literal interpretations of scripture to refute science-based evidence of the impact of evolution and climate change. We'll find some answers as we explore the history of the extreme right wing's association with a wide range of science-denying crusades. Along the way, we will discover that this toxic culture war has produced a surprising (though much more limited) left-leaning version of the repudiation of science, particularly with regard to childhood vaccinations and GMOs. We'll touch on evolution, stem-cell research, climate change, environmental regulation, vaccines, product safety, and even sex education. About The Presenter: Jim Kenney, a director of the 1993 and 1999 Parliaments of the World's Religions, is a renowned leader in the movement for global interreligious understanding and cooperative common action. He is cofounder/director of Common Ground, a center for interreligious dialogue. Even though July has a “time off” feel to it, make sure you don’t extend that feeling to weekend Mass. If you travel, it’s easy to locate a Catholic Church and find Mass times. It is also enlightening to experience sacred liturgy in a new environment at a different locale. If you’re staying home, July might be the time to visit a neighboring parish. Just remember that your home parish needs your financial support all during the summer months. July 3, 2016 • olphglenview.org 3 seek, share, rejoice - sharing and human concerns Summer Hunger is real… Our kids are enjoying time off of school but kids living in poverty are suffering without the meals provided during the school year. Please pick up a few extra breakfast and/or lunch items to help fill this void. Your donation will mean so much to those who have so little. Donations can be delivered to the church or Sharing Room entries or delivered through the kids at the Sunday offertory. God bless you for your generosity!! Sharing Updates and Opportunities Too Busy To Shop For The Food Drive? We’ll do the shopping for you! Mail a donation made out to the OLPH Needy Family Fund to Lou Marohn, 2132 Fir Street, Glenview. Food will be purchased in case lots to stretch and maximize your donation. Feed The Homeless At Marquard, July 17 Help feed the homeless at Marquard Center on Sunday, July 17. We welcome donations of fresh fruit, cookies and candy, which can be delivered to the convent porch that Saturday. To facilitate the Sharing process, please consider the guidelines outlined below. 1. Non-perishable food items continue to be our greatest need. Please donate items with their original seal and within their expiration date. Avoid glass containers. 2. Please consider the dignity of the needy when evaluating what to donate. Ask yourself whether you would be comfortable passing an item on to someone you know. 3. When donating your gently worn, clean clothing, please remove from hangers and deliver them to the Sharing Room folded in boxes or bags, keeping weight manageable for our volunteers. All types of clothing are welcome with the exception of undergarments (men’s undershirts are welcome). Volunteers are needed on Marquard Service Sundays to prepare the meal at OLPH after 9:30 a.m. Mass and to serve the meal at Marquard Center, leaving at 3:30 p.m. and returning home at 7:30 p.m.. 4. Shoes should be gently worn. We feed the homeless at Marquard Center an average of six Sundays per year. Would you consider shopping for some or all of these meals the day before we go down to serve? You will be provided a list and recommendations for where to shop. You can choose to donate the food or we can work to secure the funding. As noted above, our next visit will take place on Sunday, July 17th. 6. Contact the Parish Office for donation of larger furnishings. We will then call you to discuss the items. Please do not deliver furniture or appliances to the Sharing Room without authorization. Contact Terri Guercio, 847-729-5916 or [email protected] to volunteer. 9. Please do not donate redecorating materials (used paint, wallpaper, tile…) or construction materials. LOST & FOUND 10. The dumpsters outside the Sharing Room doors fill routinely with items we do not feel comfortable passing on. This creates an unnecessary expense and reduces funds for the poor. Please remember to check our Lost & Found if you are missing items. We'll be cleaning it out and donating unclaimed items at the end of July. Thank you! 4 The Ten Commandments of Sharing July 3, 2016 • olphglenview.org 5. Small household items in clean, good condition are welcome. Small appliances need to be complete and in working order.

Each child has only 1 ½ hours per week so it is crucial for us to have enough catechists to keep class size limited. Please consider giving your time to pass on our Catholic faith to the children. We will provide you with all the support you need. You may be surprised at how effective you will be with our well defined curriculum and the shared ideas from our experienced teachers. Previous teaching experience is not required, just a desire to help our children grow in their faith.

OPERA: As in previous years, three or four of our young people have joined me for a trip to each of the Operas in Lyric Opera Theatre. They usually say that they really enjoyed the experience, which is very different from what they experience in their ordinary lives. In July a group will be going to see “The Man from La Mancha” in Marriott’s Theatre, Lincolnshire. Father Boland with R.E. students at the Birthday Boxes service project this past spring.
