THANK YOU Besides our executive officer each classroom has a representative, we will announce those children in next week’s article. Our 6 – 8 graders had the opportunity to watch history on Thursday morning as they watched Pope Francis address to the joint meeting of Congress. They felt his message was very important – there was particular interest in the Pope’s message on the environment and global warning. There was some surprise that the leader of the Catholic Church would be as well versed on the subject as Pope Francis was. They are used to the Pope being concerned with religious issues and church doctrine.

Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo: Este fin de semana estaremos celebrando a los hombres estudiando para servir como sacerdotes en la Arquidiócesis de Chicago. En esta ocasión, honramos el ministerio de los muchos sacerdotes que les sirven fielmente cada día, así como aquellos que se preparan para servirle con caridad en el futuro. De antemano, gracias por su apoyo generoso a estos hombres. Nuestros seminaristas son consientes de su sacrificio, mediante la preparación de una vida de servicio. Ellos están dispuestos a renunciar a tener sus propias familias con el fin de hacer de nosotros y el resto de la comunidad católica su familia. Actualmente, tenemos como bendición a 78 hombres en formación sacerdotal y otros 60 jóvenes de la edad de secundaria en nuestro programa de discernimiento pre-seminario, Quigley Scholars. Estos 138 hombres son los futuros sacerdotes de nuestras parroquias. Tal vez conozcan de algunos de estos hombres, y al igual que yo, han sido inspirados por su amor a la Iglesia y el generoso entusiasmo que a ellos les motiva a responder al llamado a servir como pastores de nuestro pueblo. Amamos a nuestros seminaristas por una muy buena razón: ellos hacen surgir lo mejor de nosotros. Ellos necesitan y merecen nuestras oraciones y nuestro apoyo financiero, ya que ellos están discerniendo el renunciar a todo por el Reino de Dios y por servir al pueblo de Dios. Es debido a este compromiso que les pido su ayuda a contribuir generosamente a la colecta especial para el fondo de educación de seminarista que será este fin de semana. Sin importar el tamaño de su regalo, les asegurar que estos jóvenes son merecedores de tan gran generosidad. Todos los fondos recaudados serán utilizados únicamente para la formación de nuevos sacerdotes para la Arquidiócesis de Chicago. En caso de que le resulte más conveniente, no dude en hacer su regalo en línea a través de nuestro sitio de internet www.archchicago.org/seminarianfund. De antemano les doy las gracias por su compromiso. Este año, el cual marca mi 40 aniversario de ordenación como sacerdote, os comprometo a usted y a su familia mis oraciones diarias. Les pido lo mismo a cambio. Sinceramente suyo en Cristo, Reverendísimo Blase J. Cupich Arzobispo de Chicago Wrzesień 2015 roku. Drodzy Bracia i Siostry w Chrystusie, Kierujemy dzisiaj naszą uwagę w szczególności ku mężczyznom studiującym w seminarium duchownym tutejszej Archidiecezji. Z tej okazji honorujemy wszystkich kapłanów, którzy z takim poświęceniem codziennie Wam służą, jak również tych, którzy będą Wam służyć w przyszłości. Bóg zapłać za hojne wsparcie, jakie okazujecie tym mężczyznom. Nasi seminarzyści odpowiadają na Waszą dobroć, pilnie przygotowując się do służby. Gotowi są opuścić własne rodziny po to, aby ich rodziną stali się wszyscy katolicy. Na chwilę obecną, 78 mężczyzn odbywa formację wstępną przed święceniami, a dalszych 60 w wieku licealnym zapisanych jest do programu Quigley Scholars, dzięki któremu rozeznają swoje powołanie. To łącznie 138 przyszłych księży w naszych parafiach. Być może, podobnie jak ja, znacie kogoś z tego grona. Mam nadzieję, że ich oddanie Kościołowi oraz gorące pragnienie służenia Bogu i ludziom jest inspiracją także dla Was. Nasi seminarzyści wyzwalają w nas to, co najlepsze – dlatego właśnie tak bardzo ich kochamy. Gotowi są porzucić wszystko, aby służyć wiernym i Królestwu Bożemu. Potrzeba im więc modlitewnego oraz finansowego wsparcia z naszej strony; w pełni na nie zasługują. Właśnie ze względu na owo bezgraniczne poświęcenie ośmielam się dziś prosić Was o hojny udział w specjalnej weekendowej zbiórce, z której dochód zasili fundusz edukacyjny naszego seminarium. Niezależnie od wielkości Waszego datku, hojności dla tych kleryków nigdy zbyt wiele. Cała zebrana w ten sposób suma zostanie przeznaczona na formację nowych kapłanów dla Archidiecezji Chicago. Darowizny można również składać przez Internet, pod adresem: www.archchicago.org/seminarianfund. Z góry dziękuję za Wasze wsparcie. W tym roku przypada czterdziesta rocznica moich święceń kapłańskich. Pamiętam o Was wszystkich w codziennej modlitwie i proszę o wzajemność.

Sat u r d a y, Oc t . 3 B y t h e Gr o t t o LADIES OF THE ROSARY WELCOMES ALL WOMEN OF THE PARISH TO BECOME NEW MEMBERS The Ladies of the Rosary, a group of St. Joseph Parish Women, get together on the first Tuesday of the month from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. in Centennial (School) Hall, 5641 S. 73rd Ave. Those women who are thinking of joining the group are welcome to any meeting to check out the Ladies of the Rosary. Members would be very happy to meet potential new members. The main function of the Ladies of the Rosary is to provide both spiritual and financial support to St. Joseph Church, St. Joseph School and the community. The group raises funds in a fun way! Most of the funds are generated from the annual Christmas party, rummage sale and salad luncheon. Although there is work involved, there is lots of laughter and everyone works together. The Ladies are then happy to donate money to St. Joseph Church and School for maintenance, special repairs, computers, books and more. Donating to the community includes supporting veteran’s organizations, women in prison, battered women and children, the homeless through the annual coat drive and participating in the Ladies of the Rosary mission project - the Wounded Warrior Project. In addition to the annual Christmas party and Salad Luncheon, the Ladies have enjoyed trips to Drury Lane and the Water Reclamation District. Their meetings feature interesting speakers such as a serice dog trainer, a member of the Soukal Florist team, a historian talking about Resurrection Mary, and City Clerk office representative. More speakers are planned for the upcoming year, including a hospice representative explaining the benefits of hospice care, and more gardening tips form Soukal Florist. There is something fun planned for every meeting, a speaker, bunco game, or the yearly birthday party. All women of the parish should mark their calendars for Tuesday, Oct. 6 at 6:30 p.m., the next meeting of the Ladies of the Rosary. They are also invited to bring a friend and make lots of new friends!
