seek, share, rejoice - pastor's reflection Dear Parishioners, loved you.” Happy Father’s Day! This week the parish celebrated the life of Loretta Garvey who was a towering influence in the her family and in this parish. Over the years she was a great influence at OLPH. It was a beautiful celebration and an affirmation of the difference one person can make. I extend special greetings to all of the dads in our parish. You matter! You make a great difference in our lives. Please offer a prayer of gratitude for the influence your father has had in your life. These are challenging times to be a dad. Fathers, your sacrifice and commitment to your family leaves a legacy that shapes your family forever. Father Jerry Boland Thoughts on Today's Gospel In today’s Gospel Jesus tells his disciples that if they wish to follow him they must deny themselves and take up his cross daily. In Jesus’ time the cross was not something nice or cool that one could hang on the wall or around one’s neck. It was an instrument of torture and execution. His point: We are to lay down our lives and let him take control. Good stewards hand over their lives to Jesus no matter the cost. They realize that all they take with them into the next life is their relationship with Christ Jesus. What are we pursuing? A life that tries to bring fulfillment to ourselves or a life that brings us closer to Jesus? © 2016 International Catholic Stewardship Council 2 As the school year has concluded, Archbishop Cupich is inviting all of our parishes and schools to pray all summer for a peaceful summer. This is an invitation for all of us to make the most of the summer holiday and to hold in our hearts some neighborhoods in the Chicagoland area that have found the summer to be a time of increased gun violence and gang activity. Parishes will be hanging banners with the message, “Praying for a Peaceful Summer.” All of our Sharing Parishes; St. Sabina, St. Philip Neri, Our Lady of Tepeyac and St. James are in neighborhoods at risk for increased violence. We support them in many ways. This is a time when we can support them through the solidarity of prayer. All this week, our nation has been grieving in the light of the mass shooting in Orlando, Florida. As the magnitude of this tragedy continues to unfold, we pray for the victims, their families and those who bear deep physical and emotional wounds. This act of violence horrifies us all. The insanity of gun violence plagues our society. The nature of this attack requires us to be vigilant against the temptation to be drawn into bigotry or prejudice toward people who are Muslim. This tragedy also calls us to stand with gay, lesbian and transgender people who have often been victims of outrageous hatred and contempt. Singling out people for victimization because of their religion, sexual orientation or their nationality breaks the heart of our ever loving God, who calls us to, “Love one another as I have June 19, 2016 • olphglenview.org Currently there are many construction projects on campus. We are repairing the cupola over the rectory. The chimney also was in need of urgent attention. We are exploring a plan to increase handicapped parking near the elevator. We are replacing windows at the school and playdium. We are renovating an apartment in the convent for Sr. Joan and Sr. Paulanne. We also will be doing significant masonry work at the playdium. There are some HVAC repairs taking place as well. Jean Draths and I attended a wonderful workshop this week at the North Shore Senior Center on the technology of hearing loops for public places. This technology allows a hearing impaired person to access the sound system of the church directly and it can dramatically improve the hearing for those who often can’t hear anything in our church. We will continue to explore whether or not the church could take advantage of this technology. Have a blessed week! Fr. Jerry seek, share, rejoice - spiritual engagement International Widows Day, June 23 The OLPH Widowed Support Group will gather for a Mass at 5:30 pm, followed by dinner at Gusto Italiano at 6:30 pm.

As the food truck was being unloaded, we were thinking how we were going to prepare and distribute all these food items and finish up by 11:00 am. But, you did it on this hot sultry morning. A great job by all! Tom and Linda Rinella Sharing Updates and Opportunities Sharing Ministry Meeting, June 21 The Ten Commandments of Sharing The Sharing Ministry will hold its monthly meeting on Tuesday, June 21 at 7:00 p.m. in the Dussman Room. New members and new ideas always welcome. Join us! 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). 4. Shoes should be gently worn. 5. Small household items in clean, good condition are welcome. Small appliances need to be complete and in working order. We cannot accept TVs. 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. 7. We can only accept NEW toys. 8. We do find homes for most books but are unable to find outlets for encyclopedias and textbooks. 9. Please do not donate redecorating materials (used paint, wallpaper, tile…) or construction materials. S.O.S. For Food Consider the needy alongside your own household when grocery shopping. Pick up a few items for someone you don’t even know and make the difference in their day! 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. Volunteers are needed on Marquard service Sundays to prepare the meal at OLPH after 9:30 AM Mass and to serve the meal at Marquard Center, leaving at 3:30 and returning home at 7:30 PM. Contact Terri Guercio, 847-729-5916 or [email protected] to volunteer. 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. Thank you for your consideration of these guidelines! 4 June 19, 2016 • olphglenview.org seek, share, rejoice - parish news and notes Part Time Summer Job Opportunity OLPH School After Camp Care is looking for a certified lifeguard.

Parent Volunteers and Catechists Needed We need and encourage parent volunteers at all levels.

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.

The Power of Prayer A little more than a year ago, our daughter and sonin-law received devastating news at their 20 week ultrasound appointment - there was something seriously wrong with their unborn child. Their baby girl would be born with multiple heart defects and would probably not survive her birth. They decided to cherish every moment of the rest of that pregnancy and that’s when our family’s faith kicked into high gear. We started asking for prayers and they began pouring in. Bethie was born on August 26th and sent home on hospice care but to everyone’s surprise, she was still here when it was time for her and big brother Freddie to move to Denver in October for their dad’s new job. The prayers kept coming while they settled into their new home with a new hospice team, which could not believe how well this little girl was doing, even with her labored breathing, blue lips, fingers and toes. All the while our church kept praying for our Mary Elizabeth as she awaited open heart surgery. We thought we would lose her again in April, two weeks before she was scheduled to have her first open heart surgery. She was in pulmonary distress and was airlifted to the children’s hospital where the doctors were amazed once again that she did not die. Every setback along the way was met with more prayers and support from friends and family and people we didn’t even know, for which we are so grateful. Bethie just had her first open heart surgery and the miracle that occurred is that she is able to enjoy a walk in the park without the wind taking her breath away, she has the energy to kick her little pink feet and she can laugh - all things that she was just too weak to do before. She will still need more surgeries but we know God will take care of her and her family whatever happens. Our daughter feels that Bethie’s job while she is still here on earth is to bring people closer to God through prayer and she certainly has done that in her 9 months. What God can do knows no bounds, and we will never stop praying. Forever grateful, Chris and Carl Prouty SUBMISSIONS: Email to [email protected].
