11:00am Mass and Picnic in the Park
Our 8th Annual Borromeo Parish Unity Day
Sunday, September 13th, Bales-DuSable Park
I and our whole staff personally hope and pray each one
of you and every family, who are proud to call Borromeo our
home, will come together to celebrate our Unity in Jesus
Christ and His Holy Communion. We will have a special involvement and blessing for all our children who are preparing
this year for First Holy Communion—the Sacrament of Unity.
Because it is so important, we have decided to cancel the
10am and 11:30am Masses in church and have the Mass in
the Park at 11:00am on September 13. One of many reasons
is so the choir and others can join us.
2) The poor are dispropor onately affected by climate
change.
The dispropor onate effect of environmental change on the
poor and on the developing world is highlighted in almost
every sec on of the encyclical. Indeed, near the beginning of
“Laudato Si,” the pope states that focus on the poor is one of
the central themes of the encyclical, and he provides many
baneful examples of the effects of climate change, whose
“worse impacts” are felt by those living in the developing
countries. This is not simply the result of the power of the
rich to make decisions that do not take the poor into account,
but because the poor themselves have fewer financial resources that enable them to adapt to climate change. Addionally, the natural resources of those poorer countries
“fuel” the development of the richer countries ”at the cost of
their own present and future” (No. 52). Throughout the encyclical, the pope appeals to the Gospels, to Catholic social
teaching and to the statements of recent popes to cri que
the exclusion of anyone from benefits of the goods of creaon. Overall, in decisions regarding the environment and the
use of the earth’s common resources, he repeatedly calls for
an apprecia on of the “immense dignity of the poor” (No.
158).
Come for fun, fellowship, and our faith family!

Pope Francis’ Encyclical
On Care for our Common Home
by Father James Mar n, S.J.
Editor at large of America Jesuit magazine
Pope Francis’ revolu onary new encyclical calls for a “broad
cultural revolu on” to confront the environmental crisis.
“Laudato Si” is also quite lengthy. Can it be summarized? In
other words, what are the main messages, or “takeaways” of
this encyclical?
1) The spiritual perspec ve is now part of the discussion
on the environment.
The greatest contribu on of “Laudato Si” to the environmental dialogue is, to my mind, its systema c overview of the
crisis from a religious point of view. Un l now, the environmental dialogue has been framed mainly with poli cal, scienfic and economic language. With this new encyclical, the
language of faith enters the discussion. This does not mean
that Pope Francis is imposing his beliefs on those concerned
about the environment. “I am well aware,” he says, that not
all are believers (No. 62). Nonetheless, the encyclical invites
others to listen to a religious point of view, par cularly its
understanding of crea on as a holy and precious gi from
God to be reverenced by all men and women. But the pope
also hopes to offer “ample moƟvaƟon” to Chris ans and other believers “to care for nature” (No. 64). This does also not
mean that other popes (and other parts of the church) have
not spoken about the crisis—Francis highlights the teachings
of his predecessors, par cularly St. John Paul II and Pope
Emeritus Benedict XVI. But in its systema c spiritual approach, this is a groundbreaking document that expands the
3) Less is more
Pope Francis takes aim at what he calls the “technocraƟc”
mindset, in which technology is seen as the “principal key” to
human existence (No. 110). He cri ques an unthinking reliance on market forces, in which every technological, scien fic
or industrial advancement is embraced before considering
how it will affect the environment and “without concern for
its potenƟal negaƟve impact on human beings” (No. 109).
This is not the view of a Luddite(1)—in fact, Francis goes out of
his way to praise technological advances—but of a believer
who resists the idea that every increase in technology is good
for the earth and for humanity. “Laudato Si” also diagnoses a
society of “extreme consumerism” in which people are unable to resist what the market places before them, the earth is
despoiled and billions are le impoverished (No. 203). That is
why it is the me, he says, to accept “decreased growth in
some part of the world, in order to provide recourse for other
places to experience healthy growth” (No. 193). In contrast
with the consumerist mindset, Chris an spirituality offers a
growth marked by “moderaƟon and the capacity to be happy
with liƩle” (No. 222). It is a ma er nothing less than a redefini on of our no on of progress.
4) Catholic social teaching now includes teaching on the
environment.
Against those who argue that a papal encyclical on the environment has no real authority, Pope Francis explicitly states
(1)
nology
a person opposed to increased industrializa on or new tech-
Welcome to St. Charles Borromeo!
that “Laudato Si” “is now added to the body of the Church’s
social teaching” (No. 15). By the way, an encyclical is a type
of teaching that enjoys the highest level of authority in the
church, second only to the Gospels and church councils like
Va can II. As such, it con nues the kind of reflec on on
modern-day problems that began with Leo XIII’s “Rerum
Novarum,” on capital and labor, in 1891. Pope Francis uses
some of the tradi onal founda ons of Catholic Social Teaching, par cularly the idea of the “common good” to frame his
discussion. In keeping with the prac ces of Catholic social
teaching, the pope combines the riches of the church’s theology with the findings of experts in a variety of fields, to
reflect on modern-day problems. To that end, he explicitly
links St. John XXIII’s “Pacem in Terris,” which addressed the
crisis of nuclear war, with “Laudato Si,” which addresses this
newer crisis.
5) Discussions about ecology can be grounded in the Bible
and church tradi on.
Wisely, Pope Francis begins the encyclical not with a reflecon on Scripture and tradi on (the two pillars of Catholic
teaching), which might tempt nonbelievers to set aside the
le er, but with an overview of the crisis—including issues of
water, biodiversity and so on. Only in Chapter Two does he
turn towards “The Gospel of CreaƟon,” in which he leads
readers, step by step, through the call to care for crea on
that extends as far bask as the Book of Genesis, when humankind was called to “Ɵll and keep” the earth. But we
have done, to summarize his approach, too much lling and
not enough keeping. In a masterful overview, Pope Francis
traces the theme of love for crea on through both the Old
and New Testaments. He reminds us, for example, that God,
in Jesus Christ, became not only human, but part of the natural world. Moreover, Jesus himself appreciated the natural
world, as is evident in the Gospel passages in which he praises crea on. The insights of the saints are also recalled, most
especially St. Francis of Assisi, the spiritual lodestar of the
document. In addi on to helping nonbelievers understand
the Scripture and the church’s tradi ons, he explicitly tries to
inspire believers to care for nature and the environment.

Joke of the Week
When a man found a mouse in his can of Mountain
Dew, he did what most people in his situation do: he
spat it out. Then he sued—the other thing most of us
would do. But company lawyers—not to be confused
for the company marketing department—offered this
stomach-churning defense: The rodent could not have
originated from the bottling plant because “the mouse
would have dissolved in the soda” by the time the plaintiff bought the can and drank it.
A lawyer emails a client, “Jim, I thought I saw you on
the street. Crossed over to say hello, but it wasn’t you,
so I went back. One-tenth of an hour: $25.”

A joint ministry of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton and
St. Charles Borromeo
“ . . . and Jesus wept” (John 11:36). As we all know,
the cause of our Lord’s grief at this time was the death
of His dear friend Lazarus. Even the bystanders present
at the scene noted His grief: “See how He loved him!”
Because of our common humanity, Jesus experienced
the great sadness that all of us go through over the loss
of a loved one.
Journeying Through Grief is a Christ-centered Ministry
whose purpose is to reach out to those in mourning and
offer them comfort and help: anyone experiencing grief
over the loss of a loved one is invited to attend this session. It is based on a program of the Archdiocese of St.
Louis whose Mission Statement says it best:
To provide a safe and supportive experience enabling each person to begin to
transform his/her life from a time of
mourning to a time of healing.
The Ministry will meet for four consecutive Tuesday
evenings in October (6, 13, 20 and 27), in the Rectory
Basement Meeting Room of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, #2
Seton Court, from 7:00—8:30pm. It is open to anyone
who is in mourning, regardless of when the loss occurred, whether recently or in the past. Registration is
recommended by contacting either Steve Cave at 636947-4314 or Mary Kutchback at 636-946-9758.
To return to the Scriptures: [Christ speaking to the
Apostles at the Last Supper] “So you also are now in
anguish. But I will see you again and your hearts will
rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you.”
A parishioner has a hospital bed to lend to anyone that might have that need. Please call Peggy in the parish office for more information.

The religious leaders criticized some of the Jesus’ disciples
claiming that they did not wash their hands before eating. The ritual was intended to give special care to food
offered to God as opposed to “regular” or common
food of the general population. Jesus pointed out to
these leaders that they had lost sight of the purpose of
the law and had become totally consumed by following
the law for the sake of following the law. He continued
making his point by explaining that nothing that goes
into a person can make that person evil. It is what
comes from the person, specifically what is in his/her
heart that makes the person sinful.
A story passed on by a Native American father to his son
described the torment of two wolves living inside the
father’s head. One wolf was evil and vicious. The other
was kind and loving. When the son questioned his father
about which wolf reacted in certain circumstances, the
father explained that it was whichever wolf he fed.
How often do we feed the wolves in our heads by letting anger, prejudices, and jealousies grow unchecked?
One of the greatest things we can do for ourselves and
for our children is to help them (and ourselves) put the
hurtful things in our lives on the table so that they can be
dealt with openly and honestly. That is the only way
true healing can take place. Most often we are able to
help one another in this action, but sometimes we need
to recognize the need for an objective, third party to get
involved.
Make a list of the rules you have as a family. Sometimes
we just “know” the rules and sometimes we actually
have them written down somewhere. Discuss together
the importance and purpose for each rule. What is inside
each person’s heart that helps them honor that rule? Are
there any rules that hurt another person? If so, consider
how your family might change its habits in order to act
more lovingly toward the injured person. Are there any
rules in our society that cause struggles for people trying
to live as followers of Jesus?

Families who have lost a child:
V{|ÄwÜxÇËá `xÅÉÜ|tÄ Wxw|vtà|ÉÇ `táá
Please join us on the evening of Tuesday, September 15, the
Feast of the Sorrowful Mother, for the dedication of the St.
Charles Borromeo Children’s Memorial. The new Children’s Memorial will offer spiritual support for all families
who are suffering from the loss of a child at any age.
On September 15 we will begin by saying the 7 Sorrows of
Mary Rosary Prayer at 6:15pm in church by the newly restored Pieta statue. The dedication Mass will begin at
7:00pm. Following Mass, families who have lost a child
due to miscarriage, still birth, abortion, as well as younger
and older children who have passed away due to accident,
illness or any cause are welcome to remember their loved
ones by inscribing their child’s name in the Children’s Memorial Book of Life to be housed by the Pieta statue.
If you or someone you know has lost a child, we hope you
will join us as a community in remembering these precious
children. Please contact Ann Tollefson at 636-928-2970 or
Barb Bott at 636-947-3939 if you have any questions.
Interested in learning more about the
Catholic Church? We will have an information presentation of the process of RCIA at
our Break the Ice Cream Social on Tuesday,
September 1 at 7pm in the St. Charles Room
(rear of the cafeteria). For more information,
please contact Becca McCullough at 636-9462916 or [email protected].
The group meets weekly on Tuesday evenings, September
thru May, to share the Gospel and to learn more about the
Catholic Church and St. Charles Borromeo’s Parish Community. This is a process of discovering what it means to be a
member of the Catholic Church and how we can live out
our Faith daily. We get to know each other by sharing our
beliefs, reflecting on our lives and how God is acting in us,
and by celebrating the Rites of Initiation in the form of Baptism, Eucharist and Confirmation.
Welcome to St. Charles Borromeo!

Be kind whenever possible.
It is always possible.
~Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama
Dear Parishioners:
It has been another busy week at Saint Charles Borromeo. We have continued to meet new friends, adjust to new schedules and learn new ideas, concepts and information. This is true for all of the children and adults in our building. I am
hopeful that by the end of next week I may have most of the names of the Bobcat bunch down. Parents and families may
take a bit longer. Remembering faces and names is not, however, the biggest challenge. Building relationships with those
faces and names takes much more diligence, time and effort. We WANT to build relationships with our families. Teachers
are often told, "They don't care about what you know until they know that you care." Our work here is all about caring
for the growth of your child academically, spiritually, socially and emotionally. We hope that as the year continues we
can help you on your journey to grow your child by sharing our knowledge with you and gaining your support in our
efforts. We pray that you enjoy many joy filled family moments over the next week and we look forward to another
week of learning!

On September 9, the Church celebrates the
feast of Blessed Frederic Ozanam, the
founder of the Society of St. Vincent de
Paul. Frederic heard the call of Jesus to
love and serve those who are suffering.
And in the poor he found the face of Christ.
During July, our conference was able to carry the mission
of Bl. Frederic Ozanam by assisting 79 people, providing
$6,445.85 for food, utilities, rent and other bills. 322
meals were served in the soup kitchen. Thank you for
your generous support. To participate in the work of
SVdP, please call Joyce Cain at 636-448-2021.

Dear Parishioners:
Are you or someone you know interested in learning more about the Catholic faith? Our RCIA Ice Cream Social is Tuesday, August 30th at 7pm in the St. Charles Room of the Café.
Come and meet the RCIA team members and parishioners who have experienced a journey to being Catholic.
This is a social, relaxed gathering to get information to you and your loved one – no strings attached and plenty
of refreshing goodness!
Classes in our Parish School of Religion are underway with now more than 200 children in classes from
Kindergarten to Preparing for Confirmation. We now turn to asking for your help as a Prayer Angel.
Prayer Angels set their own schedule and work with individual classes and students to help children
learn their prayers. Do you have 90 minutes a month to help us? We’d love to hear from you.
Parents are reminded we have two meetings today:
Parents of Confirmation Students will meet from 9:50 to 10:30 in the Cafeteria
Parents of All PSR Students will meet from 10:30 to 11:15 in the Cafeteria.
As our parish prepares to celebrate Unity Day with Mass, BBQ and picnic in the park on September 13, our catechists are
busy preparing for the PSR activities that day. Because Pope Francis will be visiting the USA in September, our theme is
the World Meeting of Families! It’s going to be a lot of fun for children of all ages.
Peace of Jesus to you, Becca McCullough
