[email protected] Dear Family and Friends of Father Robert Ferrigan, October 9, 2015 My sympathy and prayers are with all of you—his family, his friends, his former parishioners, and to all who feel his loss. Due to my participation in the Synod on the Family in Rome, I regret that I am unable to be with you to celebrate Father Bob Ferrigan’s funeral. Although I did not know him well, I have come to know about him through those he OFFICE OF THE ARCHBISHOP touched through his ministry. His wisdom, his prayerfulness, and his wit enabled him to reach many people across the years of his priestly ministry. And that ministry took a number of forms, certainly in parish life but also leading the Cardinal Stritch Retreat House and giving retreats and offering spiritual direction to priests, seminarians, and laity. This is a rich and full ministry for which we rightly give thanks to God. As we commend him to God’s loving embrace, let us also ask the Lord to send other priests like him to serve the Church and the world. May Father Ferrigan’s generous and faith-filled service continue to renew all of us in hope. Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Reverend Blase J. Cupich Archbishop of Chicago HEART TO HEART-pastor to parish Founders’ Day Where would we be without the founders? You know the answer to that question. Sacred Heart parish exists because of its founders. This weekend we celebrate those faithful who, called by God, gathered and formed the foundation of this wonderful parish. It’s been generations, now. Generations of the faithful. Generations of dedicated and committed parishioners. I asked our senior deacon, Mike McNulty to write about our founders. Mike grew up in Sacred Heart and has ministered here for many years. What follows is his unique take on our founders. October 11, 1897 – I hereby appoint the Rev. F.J. Haarth, Pastor, to organize the congregation of the Catholic people of Winnetka, Lakeside and Glencoe, Il. I wish he would immediately take active charge of this good work. P.A. Feehan Arch. Chicago of Msgr Hillenbrand and duplicated it. When Msgr walked in to the party he was taken by surprise by his own likeness looking down upon him from hundreds of pizza circles of various sizes attached all over the walls of the school gym. It was a warm sunny day when Bishop Feehan and Father Haarth arrived by train at the Lakeside Station (now Hubbard Woods). They were met by a brass band and led to our present site on Tower Road, where the 1st shovelful of dirt was turned. The first brick for the original church was laid by the Pastor on Oct. 24, and, believe it or not, it was completed in time for Christmas Eve Mass, Dec. 24, 1897. The party has taken various forms over the years. Many of the original settlers came from the area around Trier, Germany, hence New Trier Township. In a tip of the hat to our roots, Fr. Raftery inspired a committee to put up a tent on the school playground, hire an Oompah Band and serve sausage, sauerkraut and German potato salad. One might say it was a forerunner of our current parish celebration, Oktoberfest. In recent years Oktoberfest has become a wonderful family oriented social event, and in Msgr. Hillenbrand’s words: "it helps make a friendly parish even friendlier". In order to avoid problematic weather at an outdoor event it is held a little earlier in the fall and does not directly coincide with Founders’ Day. Founders’ Day In 1947 Msgr. Reynold Hillenbrand thought we should celebrate the 50th anniversary of the founding of our parish. There were 3 special Masses, one for Fr. Haarth, our 1st Pastor, one for the all deceased members of the parish, and finally a Mass of Thanksgiving. Msgr was a renowned liturgist, but he also loved a good party, and so we had one at the Glencoe Women's Library Club where the new Writers Theatre is now nearing completion. It was a dinner dance for the adults and Msgr. declared the following Monday a school holiday for the children. Every year since then we have celebrated Founders’ Day and 2015 will be no exception. One of my favorite memories was the year the late Wade Ray, a whimsical artist, was asked to come up with a decorative theme. He did not reveal in advance what the theme was going to be. He had created a caricature Nonetheless, Founders Day will be celebrated this weekend, October 2425. All are encouraged to help us celebrate 118 years of progress. At that first Founders’ Day in 1947 Msgr set out five objectives for the future. A new school and a new convent, both of which were accomplished years ago. An extension of the adult education program, which has been an ongoing priority for all of the Pastors who succeeded him. Finally, a deepening of sacramental life through more frequent participation in Mass and Communion, and active participation in the Mass through singing. These last objectives were at a time when the priest said Mass in Latin with his back to the people. Five years before the 2nd Vatican Council Msgr renovated our church, relocating the altar so that he could say Mass facing the people. The priests and the parishioners learned Gregorian chant and over the years we have come to participate enthusiastically in singing. Founders’ Day has always been a way to say thanks to God for the many blessings we enjoy. For years the collection taken up at all the Masses on that day was a significant factor in our annual budget. In more recent years, perhaps because Founders’ Day became detached from Oktoberfest, the social celebration of our parish, the collection has markedly declined. I would like to propose a solution to that difficulty. The idea came to me this morning when we were counting last Sunday's collection. One of our lifelong parishioners placed her Founders’ Day envelope into the collection basket a week early. It contained a check for $118. At first I was puzzled, and then it dawned on me. She was contributing $1 for every year of the existence of Sacred Heart Parish. What a wonderful way to say "Thank You!" This weekend all of our Masses will be Masses of Thanksgiving to God for all that we enjoy. If it is possible, why not give $118 in your Founders Day envelope? What a wonderful way to say thanks. God bless us, one and all.

The presentation will be given over the course the first three Mondays in November (2nd, 9th and 16th) at 10:30am in the Parish Office Fireplace Room. We’ll ask Mark why he has no infancy story, then see what each of the other Evangelists thought should be drawn from his stories. We will see how each Gospel has a purpose and how these stories fulfill each purpose. Would the Gospels be the same without the infancy narratives? After looking at Mark, we will move to Matthew, Luke and finally John. Join us! It’s a great way to prepare for the coming of Advent and the new liturgical year.
