Anointing of the Sick
Please know that recent hospital privacy laws have
significantly limited our knowledge of parishioners
who are hospitalized. If you have a loved one who
is ill, please contact our Liturgical Life office to
request the Anointing of the Sick. The ideal time
for anointing is when family is present and not necessarily in the final hours of life. Monthly Anointing of the Sick takes place on the First Friday of the
month at 9:00 a.m. Mass.

Fr. Terry Keehan
As the Easter Season unfolds,
Pentecost begins to take focus
for us. We haven’t spent
much time yet on the coming
of, and presence of, the Holy
Spirit, yet it is always among
us and stands as a goal and
the conclusion of the Easter
season. This year Pentecost
falls on May 15, but over 100 of our teens will be confirmed on May 1, and we will take much inspiration from
the Pentecost event then.
As I meet with small groups of our teens in preparation for Confirmation, I like to remind them of how the
Pentecost event is situated in the unfolding of the Easter
Season. Pent, or the base of the word/experience
Pentecost, is rooted in the number 5 or, in this case,
50. The Apostles received the gift of the Holy Spirit 50
days after Jesus rose from the dead. I like to explain
the coming of the Holy Spirit as rooted in the feast of the
Ascension, which is 40 days after the Resurrection. The
popular scriptural belief is that 40 means a long time
(40 days Jesus spent in the desert, 40 years the Jewish
people journeyed to the Promised Land, 40 days of rain
in Noah’s Ark, etc.)
After a long time (proof that he did indeed rise), he ascends and his last words to the 11 disciples is a commissioning, “Go and baptize all nations in the name of the
Father and of the Son and of The Holy Spirit.” However
the disciples are missing two key ingredients to carry out
the mission. First, there are only 11 of them; they are
not whole because Judas was no longer alive. Second,
they don’t have the tool that they need to baptize ALL nations, and that is language.
Between the Ascension (40 days after Resurrection)
and Pentecost (50 days after), Matthias is named as the
12th (or 13th) apostle –thus making them whole again,
and on Pentecost they receive the gift of being able to
speak different languages so that they can now go out
and spread the Good News story of Jesus Christ to ALL
nations.
This year we will celebrate the feast of the Ascension
on Mother’s Day, May 8. Until then we hear much of the
story of the early church, and this weekend is a great example. In the first reading from Acts, Paul and Barnabas
expand the good news of Jesus’ Resurrection beyond the
Jewish community to include Gentiles; in other words, the
whole world. This inclusion is consistent with the Gospel
of Luke, whose primary author and source is also the
primary author and source of the Acts of the Apostles.
This inclusive message is continued in the second
reading from Revelation as we hear, “I, John, had a vision of a great multitude, which no one could count from
every race, nation, people and tongue.”
The Gospel according to John is a short passage this
week. It follows Jesus’ statement that “I am the Good
Shepherd.” It tells of the intimate and tender connection between Jesus as shepherd, and us in his care. It
speaks of eternal life as a gift that we receive as a result
of that connection. No one can take us out of his hand
and he speaks of us as a gift that God has given to him;
and no one can take us out of God’s hand, which is also
the hand of Jesus that stretches out to us in our beautiful
Cross of New Life.
You may have noticed the dimming of the image on
the screen on the east side of the church. Our screens
enable us here at Holy Family to enhance our worship in
a unique way. It is a signature part of our vibrant liturgical experience, indeed, a Holy Family hallmark. The
image is dimming because the projector is failing. We
have rented a new projector at the best price available,
but this problem is indicative of a larger challenge. Our
video equipment is 12 years old. Can you imagine using
a cell phone today that was 12 years old? Technology
continues to evolve and grow. We have done a thorough
assessment of our video and audio equipment and, at this
time, it is estimated that we need between $160,000 and
$180,000 of upgrades to continue providing the quality
of imagery and sound that you have come to expect and
that we want to provide. Please consider these costs in
your regular giving. Thank you.
Do you have a will or trust in place? Is it current?
Surprisingly a majority of American’s do not have an
estate plan in place. I encourage you to attend the
Financial Planning Ministry seminar this coming Thursday evening, April 21 at 7 pm to better understand the
importance of having a plan and the opportunity to create
a will or trust at no cost to you. Please see the Financial
Planning Ministry notice later in the bulletin on how to
register for the seminar.
The First Anniversary of Kid Church will be Sunday,
April 24 at 10:15 am in the Chapel. Kid Church is a lay
led word service for families with children under the age
of 4, and the first anniversary celebration will be special.
Please come and spread the word.
Archbishop Cupich has started a very important
initiative throughout the Archdiocese of Chicago entitled
“Renew My Church.” He has gathered leadership, staffs
and clergy in beginning this initiative and he has listened
to our feedback. Perhaps the most important feedback
he wants is yours. He wants to hear from as many parishioners as possible in moving this Renew My Church
initiative forward.
Please take time to fill out the survey created by the
Archdiocese which is essential to giving this process very
valuable input—YOURS. Log on to the Archdiocesan
website (archchicago.org) or the link on our website that
is Renew My Church.

Did You Know (or Do You Remember)????
As we celebrate the Easter season, The Cross of New Life is a good time to learn or flashback. The
Cross of New Life, commissioned in 1998, is a unique and inspiring
work of art which graces our worship space. It measures 12 feet by
16 feet, weighs almost 2,000 pounds, and is suspended over the altar steps (sanctuary) where much of our sacramental life takes place.
Using the sculpting medium acrylic, the Cross of New Life captures
and reflects the light streaming through the magnificent windows of
the church, suggesting the five elements of earth, fire, light, water,
and air. It speaks to us in a most eloquent, yet simple manner of our
relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ, our Savior and our Friend.
The outstretched arm reminds us of His invitation all of us to make
Him, “the Christ,” the all-encompassing focal point of our lives. The
rays of His RISEN presence surround Him in the form of a cross.
The Cross of New Life is an instrument of evangelization inviting us
to new life. It is a tangible sign of Holy Family’s mission to all who
come here seeking compassion, understanding, acceptance, and love of the Lord and one another.
Things

“If there is no laughter, Jesus has gone somewhere
else. If there is
freedom, it is not a church:
s no joy and freedom
it is simply a crowd of melancholy people basking in
a religious neurosis. If there is no celebration, there
is no real worship.”

Invitation to Stand in the Presence of God

broadcaster, and a seminary professor at Reformed
Theological Seminary in Orlando, Florida.)

Word from the Pew
Do you know of any interesting blogs about the liturgy?
Here’s one to check out called Pray Tell, http://www.praytellblog.
com/.Pray Tell is a blog that gives practical wisdom about prayer,
sacraments, and the
community of the faithful – in short, worship. Created especially for
pastors, liturgists, musicians, and scholars (but anyone interested
may find it interesting), Pray Tell is informal, conversational, wellinformed, intellectually grounded and, even humorous.
Word from the Pew from
Beyond Holy Family
“Our church was recently renovated. Our pastor has made certain changes, among them, fish have been placed
in the water of the baptismal font. Is it appropriate? I have never seen this in any other parish.”
The placing of fish in a baptismal is font is totally inappropriate. The baptismal font, like the entire baptistry is
"reserved for the sacrament of baptism and should be worthy to serve as the place where Christians are reborn
in water and the Holy Spirit." (Christian Initiation, General Introduction, number 25). Of all the liturgical books, the
Book of Blessing, number 1085 provides the most comprehensive description of a baptismal font:
"The baptismal font, particularly one in a baptistery, should be
stationary, gracefully constructed out of suitable material, of
splendid beauty and spotless cleanliness; it should permit
baptism by immersion, whenever this is the usage. (Christian
Initiation, General Introduction, no. 25). In order to enhance its
force as a sign, the font should be designed in such a way that
it functions as a fountain of running water; where the climate
requires, provision should be made for heating the water."
(Ibid, no. 20)

Thank you to our friends
at Beth Tikvah!
Our deepest gratitude to Rabbi Taron Tachman, Steve Pill and the
entire Beth Tikvah congregation for hosting a wonderful
“Jewish-Catholic Dialogue” program and beautiful hospitality
on Wednesday, April 13th for our
Adult Faith participants.
This is the third year of this program and it is always a joy to be with
our friends from Beth Tikvah. This year we began the program in
the worship space at Beth Tikvah and we learned about the many
important symbols and rituals that make up the Jewish services. We
followed that with relational questions at tables with Beth Tikvah and
Holy Family representatives sharing how our faith
has impacted our lives.
We are already looking forward to next year!

Congratulations to our
2016 Neophytes!
After almost a year of preparation and the creation of many
new friendship bonds, this group has completed their initiation
as full members of the Roman Catholic Church. We welcome
them all, and we look forward to their Neophyte Mass on Sunday, April 24 at 11:00.
A HUGE thank you goes out to our RCIA team who gives
hundreds of hours each year to provide the support and education needed to prepare the Candidates and Catechumens for
this very powerful conversion experience. Their dedication and
love for the ministry shines throughout the entire process! We
are truly blessed to have them walking the journey with those
who wish to become fully initiated Catholics.

Family & Teen Faith
CALLED TO BE AN EASTER PEOPLE:
EMBRACING DIVERSITY; PRACTICING TOLERANCE
Peg Hanrahan
Director
847-907-3431
PHanrahan@
holyfamilyparish.org
The Family & Teen
Faith Community...
offers faith formation
and catechesis
to preschool through
elementary school aged
children and
high school teens
and their families.
Given the heated political rhetoric in this election cycle, the concern over
increasing terrorist threats (especially in light of the attacks in Paris, San
Bernadino and Brussels), the ongoing struggles for racial justice in our society and
a rise in religious based intolerance, it seemed a good time to raise the issue of
how we, as a faith community value diversity and foster tolerance in ourselves,
each other and in our children/teens.
“Tolerance is respect, acceptance and appreciation of the rich diversity of
our world's cultures, our forms of expression and ways of being human.
Tolerance is harmony in difference.”
UNESCO (the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization)
Respect, acceptance and appreciation of diversity are qualities we value at Holy Family. As religious people we
see diversity as a blessing. Respect, acceptance and appreciation are essential to life-giving encounters; merciful
interactions. To be a welcoming community we must an inclusive community. To be a merciful community we must
strive for ‘harmony in difference’ and set aside the comfort of conformity, not mistaking it for unity. However, it is
easier to say than to do. To achieve harmony in difference we need to practice it.
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) founded in 1971 to fight hate and bigotry and seek justice for the
most vulnerable in our society is a valuable resource. Among its many initiatives the SPLC launched its ‘Teaching
Tolerance’ Project (www.teachingtolerance.org ) in the 1990’s to help parents and educators help children learn and
embrace the values of equality and justice for all. As parents let those who teach your children/teens know about
their many free resources and subscribe to their award winning publication Teaching Tolerance Magazine
(https://www.splcenter.org/teaching-tolerance?gclid=CMfWyZjw6MsCFQgoaQodC6kBgA)
The Teaching Tolerance Project reminds us that;
1. Prejudice, bias, and hate, as well as an appreciation for diversity, are learned.
2. No matter how good we are, how hard we work at appreciating the wisdom of
those who are different, we all carry prejudice and biases, what is now referred to
as unconscious bias.
3. The more we work at appreciating diversity, the less obvious, and so the more
insidious, our prejudice and biases can become.
Whether we like it or not, we teach by example. Our facial expressions and body language can betray our words.
A careless phrase or our inability or unwillingness to challenge prejudiced or biased words and/or behavior in a
family setting, with friends, in the neighborhood, yes even at Church, does harm. Prejudice excludes. Bigotry
disfigures the Body of Christ. Discrimination betrays. Such attitudes and behaviors are antithetical to the Gospel.
Our fear of the stranger and discomfort with the unfamiliar can lead to feelings of apprehension. Becoming aware
of the way our biases influence our dealings with others and fostering an understanding of the other is a work of
mercy (Instruct the ignorant is the first of the Spiritual Works of Mercy. See Anna Gray and Barbara Whitlock’s
blog in Living the Liturgical Year - https://liturgicalyear.wordpress.com/2010/09/28/spiritual-works-of-mercyinstructing-the-ignorant/). Our desire to hold on to cultural values and traditions that were influential in shaping our
personal identities can make us skeptical of diversity as a blessing or gift.
In a wonderful book, The New Religious Intolerance: Overcoming the Politics of Fear in an Anxious Age
(Harvard University Press, 2012) Martha C. Nussbaum encourages us to expand our capacity for empathetic
imagination by cultivating curiosity, seeking friendship across religious lines (add cultural, racial, socio-economic
status, ethnic, gender identity and expression, and sexual orientation as well), and establishing a consistent ethic of
decency and civility”. Decency has a lot to do with mercy – a spiritual value sadly lacking in our world.
The Family and Teen Faith staff will work with you, to find ways to celebrate diversity and eradicate
discrimination. Tuesday, March 29, our sixth graders and their parents visited Beth Tikkvah. On April 13 why not
join the Jewish-Catholic Dialogue for adults (see the Easter bulletin for full details). Rabbi Tachman and the Teen
Faith staff will be working on creating a Teen Jewish-Catholic Dialogue. We also hope to create a Muslim-Catholic
Teen Dialogue for next Fall. Our FLAME classes will welcome, Maneshwar Singh, from the Interfaith Youth Core,
on April 10. Mr. Singh will speak on about interfaith cooperation and dialogue.

Preparing our children to receive the Sacraments
Preparing children to receive the sacraments of First Eucharist and Reconciliation at
Holy Family is done in collaboration with Family Faith and Holy Family Catholic
Academy (HFCA). The sacramental preparation sessions are conducted outside of
and in addition to class time.
Why not do all of sacramental preparation during their Faith or HFCA
religion classes?
ƒ
ƒ
We want to have parents integrally involved in the sacramental life of their child as teachers and mentors.
We want to foster a spirit of community and cooperation between the families of both Family Faith and HFCA.
SACRAMENTAL POLICIES FOR 2016-2017
Children preparing to receive a sacrament must have at least two years of formal religious education prior to the
reception of the sacrament. This means that if parents wish to have their child receive First Communion in the spring
of second grade they must have their child enrolled by the fall of first grade. This policy is part of best practice
recommendations from both the Archdiocese of Chicago and The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
Grace period granted for 2016-17
Because this is a new policy for Holy Family there will be one year’s grace period. All children wishing to
receive First Reconciliation and First Eucharist in the spring of 2017 must be registered and present on the
first day of class.
1. Children with significant gaps in their formal religious education will be asked to do additional study to make
up the work they missed. Religious education like all educational endeavors builds upon the mastery of
foundational concepts and the development of certain skill sets. When substantive gaps exist in a child/teen’s
learning it hampers their ability to understand new and more complex concepts and develop the skills needed to
apply what they learn. This is the same reason we wouldn’t think of putting a child who has only completed second
grade math into a high school Algebra or Geometry class or someone with a fourth grade reading level in a high
school literature class.
RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION - RCIA (adults) RCIC (school age children)
School age Children who come to us to prepare to be baptized or those in grades 3-8 who wish
to receive First Reconciliation and First Eucharist will need to attend either Faith or Academy
classes and participate in the RCIC process. The RCIC process is designed as a family process. All
family members are invited to attend these sessions but at least one parent is expected to attend the
RCIC sessions with their child/ren.
THE RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION at Holy Family is open to all adults and children who wish to
¾ be baptized,
¾ were baptized in another Christian Church and now wish reception into the Roman Catholic Church, or
¾ wish to complete the sacraments of initiation.
The RCIC is designed for children of school age. These sacraments are usually celebrated during the Easter Season.
Whether your family or family members are entering the Catholic Church for the first time, returning after time away,
decided to delay sacramental preparation and now want to complete their Christian Initiation or any other circumstance
know you are welcome to do so at Holy Family.
The RCIC process involves
a) regular attendance at weekend liturgy,
b) participation in the seven (7) Christian initiation sessions with a parent(s) held on Sunday at 12 noon and
c) involvement in a formal religious education class at grade level.

HFCA moves toward
IB World School Certification
HFCA is the first school in the Chicago Archdiocese, and the first known
school in the Northwest suburbs to be accepted as a Candidate* for the
International Baccalaureate (IB) World School Primary Years certification. The process toward certification officially began in January 2016.
Recently, our IB consultant, Mrs. Upfold from Toronto, spent 2 days with
our teachers and visited our classrooms.
She was very complimentary of the systems and instructional processes
at that are already aligned to the IB framework and which have long
been hallmarks of HFCA. Her report indicated that HFCA’s faculty and
staff are well suited to undertake this multi-year task.
The IB Primary Years Programme covers 3-year-old preschool through
Grade 5, and aims to develop internationally minded people. Aligned
with our Catholic teachings, the IB framework recognizes our common
humanity and shared guardianship of the planet, and helps to create a
better and more peaceful world.
Here are some of our kindergarten students modeling IB attributes: Deb Atkins

The Human
Concerns
Community...
offers assistance with
life’s basic needs,
spiritual and emotional
support as well as
additional resources
with partners in our
community while
promoting mercy and
justice by putting our
faith into action.
Over the next 12 months, all seven themes will be highlighted.
The Church’s social teaching is a rich treasure of wisdom about building a just society and living lives of holiness amidst the challenges of
modern society. Modern Catholic social teaching has been articulated through a tradition
of papal, conciliar and episcopal documents. The depth and richness of this tradition can
be understood best through a direct reading of these documents. In these brief reflections,
we highlight several of the key themes that are at the heart of our Catholic social tradition.
Care for God’s Creation
We show our respect for the Creator by our stewardship of creation. Care for the earth is
not just an Earth Day slogan, it is a requirement of our faith. We are called to protect people and the planet, living our faith in relationship with all of God’s creation. This environmental challenge has fundamental moral and ethical dimensions that cannot be ignored.
The environment is God’s gift to everyone, and in our use of it we have a responsibility
towards the poor, towards future generations and towards humanity as a whole. . . Our
duties towards the environment are linked to our duties towards the human person, considered in himself and in relation to others. It would be wrong to uphold one set of duties
while trampling on the other. Charity in Truth (Caritas in Veritate. . . ), #48, 51

on Mother’s Day, May 8
I was a stranger and you welcomed me
Moments after receiving a call on the mobile outreach hotline, Catholic Charities dispatches a van
to meet a young adult on the street and provide
free transportation – with no strings attached – to
a safe shelter. When others may just walk by, we
act. Multiply this act at our 164 locations which
are open to all. Every 30 seconds someone
counts on us for help.
Give to Catholic Charities on Mother’s Day so
people are fed, comforted, sheltered, and cared
for at any stage in life. Learn more at www.
catholiccharities.net.
“How marvelous it would be if, at the end of the
day, each of us could say: today I have performed
an act of charity towards others!” - Pope Francis

JOURNEYS has asked that we continue to support
them by simply “liking” their Facebook page. This is
