Wellstreams—Living Waters for the Journey in Faith
By Sister Lauretta Leipzig
PERSISTENCE IN PRAYER
If God knows all things, desires to give us good things
and hears us the first time we pray, then why does God
ask us to persist in prayer?
There is a story about a snail that started to climb a cherry
tree one cold, windy day in late spring. The sparrows on
a neighboring tree had a good laugh at his expense. Then
one flew over and said, “Hey, don’t you know there are
no cherries on this tree?” The little snail did not stop as
he replied, “Well, there will be when I get there.”
Continuing his climb, the snail knew that his persistence
would pay off in the end!
You are probably familiar with the gospel of Luke, chapter 18, where Jesus tells a parable that was traditionally
called the Parable of the Importunate Widow.
Importunate is a word meaning ‘persistent in making a
request’ even to the point of becoming something of a
bother. And that would describe very appropriately the
widow portrayed in this parable. She was unwavering in
seeking justice from an unjust judge. Today, the parable
is known as the Parable of Persistent Prayer.
Our persistence in prayer must be like the helpless
widow who just won’t quit. She won’t be put off. After
repeated pleas for justice, the hard-hearted judge finally
gives in and grants her request so he can be rid of her.
Jesus tells his disciples that if a selfish judge will relent in
the face of persistence, how much more will ‘God grant
justice to those who cry to God day and night.’ God,
however, is nothing like that unjust judge—God is
generous, abounding in mercy and eager to bring justice.
Early Christian communities were suffering persecution.
They were praying, waiting for Jesus’ return, waiting for
the great day when justice, mercy and kindness would
prevail on earth and everything broken would be
mended and healed. That day never seemed to arrive.
But Jesus told them, “Pray always and do not lose heart.”
We, too, often feel that we’re not being heard,
overwhelmed by the darkness of the world or of things
happening in our individual lives.
We can feel
discouraged, disappointed or just plain depleted.
Persistence is what we need at a time like this—
persistence in faith and in prayer. This persistence brings
us closer to God; it means that we keep showing up, keep
making ourselves available for an encounter, keep
sharing what is truly on our minds and in our hearts.
Persistent prayer is about relationship with God. It is one
thing to hear someone tell you over and over that God
2
Saint Anne Church • May 1, 2016 • stannebarrington.org
loves you and is always with you. But it is quite another
thing to discover that truth for ourselves, to come to that
knowledge in the very depths of our being. A second
reason for persistence is that prayer changes us. Prayer is
not like mechanically firing off a series of faxes as if we
can pray and, at the same time, stay at a safe distance
from God. Prayer makes us vulnerable, makes us real.
Did you ever think that persistence is for our sake, not
God’s? If we always get exactly what we want the first
time we ask, we would inevitably begin to treat God as
our ‘genie,’ only summoned forth to give us our heart’s
desires. But that is precisely what prayer calls into
question: What do we really want—something or someone? Do we want God’s will? Do we want God even
more than we want what we are asking for? So,
persistence both deepens our relationship with God and
compels the heart to examine what it really wants and
needs most.
Henri Nouwen, the great spiritual model, captured the
idea beautifully when he wrote, “You must be patient …
until your hands are completely open to God’s will.”
Perhaps God desires to give us exactly what we have
asked for but only in a time and way that the gift can
truly benefit us. Often when we attain what we need, we
depart and no longer pray so God protects us with the
pretext of need that we may concern ourselves with him
more closely. Saint John Chrysostom wrote: “I prayed for
many things and was not heard.” But he continued to
pray. The apostle Paul prayed that a painful situation
would be removed. When God didn’t answer his prayer
as he had asked, Paul changed how he was praying. He
prayed that God would help him to rely on God’s grace,
strength and power which was made perfect in his
weakness.
God uses persistence in prayer to mold, even transform,
our desires to change how we pray and even what we are
praying for so that we gradually come to pray closer to
the heart of God’s will. The whole Bible is the story of
God’s relentless pursuit of a relationship with his people.
So, we live in the confidence that God won’t give us NO
for an answer! His answer perhaps is not what we want,
when we want it or even how we want it but God’s
answer will come in a way that we truly long for in the
depths of our soul.
God will never give up on us so we don’t give up either!
God WILL answer our prayers!

LITURGY CORNER—Edited by Rory Cooney
BODIES AT PRAYER—PART 1—INTRODUCTION
“That they may be one, Father, as you are in me, and I am in you,
that they may be one in us, that the world may believe that you have sent me.”
That was part of Jesus’ great priestly prayer at the Last Supper. Being one takes practice. If we start by
thinking of ‘being one’ or ‘acting as one’ as taking part in a flag team or synchronized swimming, though,
we might get the idea that unity means uniformity, strict conformance to a particular set of finely tuned
movements. But is God’s unity really like that? God’s unity is relational; it is the unity of three persons who
are one. God’s unity suggests movement, accommodation, relationship. Anyone who has ever been in a
relationship of love knows that ‘being one’ takes practice. Most of us don’t just fall into unity for the long
haul; we work at it. We make a decision, when we realize that things aren’t going to be magical and just fall
into place, that we want to be one. We choose to make a habit of accommodation and love.
God is love, and love is service. The habit of ‘acting as one’ comes from choosing to serve the other person,
no matter what. That’s what God does because God is love. Acting as one is a habit; we practice it in our
daily lives by being together in a way that consciously tries to serve the needs of others.
Our movement in the liturgy is much like this. Sometimes we stand; sometimes we sit; sometimes we kneel
or walk or sing. We practice doing things together for the good of everyone, not because they are things we
necessarily feel like doing but because we are rehearsing or practicing being one. When our bodies join our
minds and will to pray together, we submit to the good of everyone and practice being one. And our bodies
learn to follow our mind and will. Like people who make decisions to do the loving thing even when we
don’t feel like it, we choose unity over individualism because that is the prayer and will of Christ.
Over the next few Sundays, I hope to touch on specific areas of our bodies at liturgical prayer. I’ll say a little
about why we stand, sit, kneel, process, enter into dialogue, sing, be silent, make the sign of the cross, bow
and give a kiss or handshake of peace. And probably more.
Have a question for the Liturgy Corner? Email Rory at [email protected]. Over the weeks
and months, I’ll get to as many questions as I can.

FIRST EUCHARIST RETREAT
In preparation for First Eucharist, our children and their parents participated
in a day of retreat this past weekend.
Parents and children worked together to
design and create the traditional banners
that will hang on each family’s pew.
The transformation of plain pieces of felt into
beautiful, personal statements reflecting the
relationship of the individual and the sacrament was
remarkable.

JAMES ALISON SPEAKS AT SAINT ANNE!
On Thursday, April 21st, James Alison, author of Je sus, th e
Forgiving Victim, shared his thoughts and insights on the Prodigal
Son with a group of over 50 people as a capstone to our 30
session Jesus, the Fo rgiving Victim series which had been
facilitated by Rory Cooney.
James compared parables to a Swedish puzzle; to truly understand it, it must be dismantled and
reassembled. Deconstructing the parable of the Prodigal Son line by line, he provided historical context,
pointed out the many references and similarities to stories from the Old Testament and offered us a fresh
perspective on this scripture. All participants were engaged by his convivial manner and his keen insights
into a very familiar story.
Thank you to Rory Cooney
for his work facilitating the series
and for arranging James Alison’s visit!

Rejoice! When we reflect on all that God gives
us every day, we certainly have good reason to
rejoice.
Considering the glass-half-full analogy, how we
see our lives is often a matter of our own
choosing. If we choose to, we can find much to
rejoice about in each day.
Oftentimes, joy can be found in looking back
through the day, seeing how events unfolded
and that God was there with us to support us
along the way.
If we make a point of looking for the blessings
in life each day and celebrating them, we will
most certainly have reason to rejoice!

The Saint Anne Sharing Board provided
specific funding to the director, Sister Therese O’Sullivan, to
purchase this bright new entryway to replace the one that sustained
damage from the fire at the church next door. This provides the
security that is very necessary in their neighborhood, and the bright
red entry is a happy welcome to all of the women who arrive
looking for hope. The Saint Anne Sharing Board is proud to

BLOOD DRIVE—NEXT SUNDAY, MAY 8TH
This is the time of the year when new life is springing up all around us. It’s a
blessing to feel a part of it, but not everyone shares this good feeling. Some of our
friends and neighbors are in serious medical need, and they need the help that
only we can give them. If you have the blessing of good health, share it. We can
multiply what we have been given by sharing our blessings with the members of
our community who are now in need.
Next Sunday, May 8th, from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., in the school cafeteria, Saint
Anne will sponsor our spring blood drive. PLEASE plan to donate.
Our last blood drive was very successful. We saw many new donors, and over 100 critically ill patients
were helped. That’s the spirit of Saint Anne! As our community ages, we require more complex medical
procedures so the need for blood increases. There is no substitute for blood. Without our help, local
shortages would be inevitable. We need your help.
If you haven’t donated before, it’s easy. Bring your driver’s license. You must be at least 17 years old and
weigh at least 110 pounds. Most medications such as blood pressure medicine or aspirin will not cause
disqualification. The entire process takes about 40 minutes from start to finish, and the blood collection
itself takes 15 minutes or less.
This will only take a little time next Sunday, May 8th, so please become someone’s hero and discover the
particular joy of giving blood. Blood is truly the gift of life. For more information, contact Bob Powers at

Sharing the Living Story
By Clem Aseron
(A) Lectionary texts: http://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/050116.cfm
(B) Bible texts (has verse #): http://www.usccb.org/bible/books-of-the-bible/index.cfm
SIXTH SUNDAY OF EASTER, 2016 (57C)
First Reading: Acts of the Apostles 15:1-2, 22-29
Responsorial Psalm: 67:2-3, 5, 6, 8. RX = O God, let all the nations praise you!
Second Reading: Revelation 21:10-14, 22-23
Gospel: John 14:23-29
Please refer to (A) and (B) above when I cite verses in the commentary below.
As it often happens, the psalm refrain is a key to the integration among the readings of the day:
O God, let all the nations praise you!
In his book, the Acts of the Apostles, Luke continues on from his Gospel to write his story to his Jesus
community about the early church and its struggles to maintain its integrity; in this pericope1, he describes
the very divisive struggle between gentile converts and Jewish converts. The Jewish converts from
Jerusalem insisted that the gentiles, who were culturally far removed from the practices of the Jews,
should nevertheless be required, as essential to salvation, to observe all the ancient laws of Moses,
particularly circumcision, the sign of the ancient covenant. Leaders of the gentiles, Paul and Barnabas,
take their concerns from Antioch all the way back to the mother church in Jerusalem for arbitration. This
pericope omits the description of the extended debate at vv. 3-21 and speaks only of the end result. The
Jerusalem church sends two of its own members, Silas and Judas, to accompany Paul and Barnabas back to
Antioch to authenticate the link between Jerusalem and the distant Antioch. They are to say definitively
that gentiles are not required to be circumcised nor are they to observe Mosaic Law except for whatever
provisions that the whole Jerusalem church—together with the holy Spirit (v. 28)—deems necessary (v.29).
Luke is careful to emphasize that it is the Spirit who guides the whole church and therefore, harmony and
accord is the result.
Psalm 67 is the sole Hebrew scripture pericope today. Its refrain, O God, let all the nations praise you and its
verses point to an inclusive God who embraces those outside the Chosen People; look at whom the
Psalmist names at vv. 5 and 6: May the nations be glad and exult because yo u rule the p eo p les in equity;
the nations on the earth you guide. May the peoples praise you, O God; may all the peoples praise you! Recall that
the plural, natio ns or p eo p les, refers to those who are not of The Chosen, who are not of the tribes of Israel.
The last book of the bible, the Book of Revelation, is written in symbolic and veiled language about the
heavenly world and the final judgment. Today’s pericope shows the very intimate connection of the Jews
to their scriptures as it describes the Church as the heavenly city of God. In the New Jerusalem, the new
city of God, the Father and the Lamb are overwhelmingly present; there is no need for a physical Temple.
The gathered body of believers, the Church, is the new temple (vv. 22-23). Recall that the risen Lord is
present in the smallest of gatherings (Mt. 18:20) as well as when the entire church (Mt. 28:20b) is gathered.
16
Saint Anne Church • May 1, 2016 • stannebarrington.org
Sharing the Living Story
In the risen Lord is where God and humans meet. At Rev 21:22, the tem ple is the Lord God Alm ighty and
the Lamb.
The pericope from John is part of the Last Discourse of Jesus to the disciples before he leaves them. Earlier
in this chapter, at 15-17, Jesus had said that if one loved him and kept his commandments, the Father
would send another Advocate to dwell with them forever. In a second promise, at 18-21, he reminded
them he would leave them but would return and would dwell in them as they would in him, and this was
possible because the Father was in him. This intimacy is graphic in today’s passage at v.23: Whoever loves
me will keep my word, and my Father will love him and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him; this
indwelling is the Lo rd Go d alm ighty and the Lam b—the very same as at Rev 21:22! This is the farewell
gift of peace: the indwelling in the people of the Father and the Son. This is the teaching that the Holy
Spirit will bring to the ones left behind (v.26) when Jesus leaves.
O God, let all the nations praise you!
So What?
It is a very comforting image in our hearts to think of the Father and the Christ
making a home within us and staying there …
and of our being made secure by the constant teaching and promptings of the Holy Spirit.
Imagine it … it is a kind of peace that the world cannot give!
How do we reflect, how do we pray, as we read the opening of John’s v.23:
Whoever loves me will keep my word …
followed by the opening of v.24:
Whoever does not love me does not keep my words … ?
1
Biblical passage chosen to reflect the liturgical sense of that day of the liturgical year being celebrated.
The pericope may be modified: e.g., today, only the Gospel pericope has continuous verses;
the other three have discontinuous verses.

Sacraments
We believe that the celebration of the sacraments
ranks among the most important gifts that we have.
We look forward to sharing these celebrations with
those who, in some way, are part of our community.
Therefore, please note the following:
Visitation of the Sick: If you or a family member are in a local
hospital or are homebound and would like a visit from a
minister of care or a priest, call Mary Hoffing at 847.382.2148.
Baptism: Our Baptism ministry is pleased to help your
family prepare for the special event of your child’s entrance
into our faith community.
 Two Baptism sessions are required for parents baptizing
their 1st child
 Parents who have had a Baptism at another Catholic
Church and are now wanting to baptize a child at Saint
Anne will be asked to speak to a staff member before
scheduling Baptism
 Parents who have already attended Baptism preparation at
Saint Anne will be asked to speak to a staff member before
scheduling Baptism
Information for setting a Baptism date will be given at the
meeting or at the time of the interview. Call the parish office at
847.382.5300.
Marriage: To be married at Saint Anne, the preparation
process should begin 7 months to one year prior to the
wedding date. Please call the parish office to secure a date as
soon as possible. Membership at Saint Anne is not a
requirement. We look forward to helping you during this time
of preparation for the vocation of Christian marriage.
First Eucharist and First Reconciliation: These sacraments are
typically celebrated in second grade. Candidates must be
registered parishioners and complete the two-year preparation
program. For more information, call the Faith Formation and
Education office at 847.620.3067.
Confirmation: This sacrament is celebrated in high school.
Candidates must be registered parishioners and complete the
two-year preparation program. For more information, call the
PATHS office at 847.620.3072.
Reconciliation: Saturdays, 9:15 a.m. until all are heard or by
appointment.
Adult Christian Initiation: If you are looking for a place to
belong or a church community to share questions and beliefs,
perhaps you would like to find out more about what it means
to be a Catholic Christian. Saint Anne would be delighted and
honored to share the gift of faith and fellowship with you.
Call Michael Beard at 847.620.3070 for information regarding
the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults).
Registration: To enter into our faith community, please
attend an information/registration session at 9:30 a.m. in the
Hospitality Room, followed by the 11:00 a.m. Mass on the 1st
Sunday of the month, except on holiday weekends when
there are no sessions. For further information, call the parish
office at 847.382.5300.
