Dear Parishioners, The woman caught in the act of adultery demonstrates Jesus’ deep care for the women who had been used by the scribes and Pharisees as a way of undermining Jesus' credibility. Jesus gives two responses--one non-verbal and the other verbal. At first, Jesus says nothing and merely bends down and writes on the ground. Symbolically, this means Jesus refuses to engage in the issues. Sometimes, saying nothing, not getting into the game playing is our best response. Jesus ignores his accusers and their questions. Jesus' second response is directed to the scribes and Pharisees. He moves beyond the legal question and focuses on the issue of sin – not the woman's sin, but that of her accusers. He calls them to accountability, and they fail. From the elders on down, they shamefully leave. There is no condemnation for the woman, only compassion. With prayers during these Lenten days, Father Mike Meany

PERPETUAL

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION

Christ's followers were skeptical when He preached the reality of His Body and Blood as food and drink. St. John said, "many of His disci-ples withdrew and no longer went about with Him."

Seeing this, Jesus asked the Twelve, "Do you also want to leave me?" Simon Peter did not understand any more than those who left Christ, but his loyalty was more firm. "Lord," he said, "to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life." We have the "Word of Eternal Life" right here with us day and night in our Adoration Chapel. Do you have something you want to ask Him? There are several hours needing adorers. Please pick one for your personal hour with Him.

THE FEAST OF DIVINE MERCY_______________________ _April 3, 2015 On Good Friday, 1937, Jesus requested that St. Faustina make a special novena before the Feast of Mercy, begin-ning on Good Friday and through the following Saturday. He suggested to St. Faustina the specific intentions she was to use in this Novena. (These suggestions were for her, individually, but can be our intentions as well).

Day 1 All mankind, especially all sinners Day 2 The souls of priests and religious Day 3 All devout and faithful souls Day 4 Those who do not believe in God & those who do not know Me Day 5 The souls of those who have separated themselves from My Church Day 6 The meek and humble souls and the souls of little children Day 7 The souls who especially venerate and glorify My mercy Day 8 The souls who are detained in Purgatory Day 9 Souls who have become lukewarm

Jesus said: “You are to show mercy to your neighbors always and everywhere. You must not shrink from this, nor try to excuse yourself from it…..Even the strongest faith is of no avail without works (742)….If a soul does not exercise mercy in some way, it will not obtain My mercy on the day of judgment (1317). SPIRITUAL WORKS OF MERCY CORPORAL WORKS OF MERCY Admonish sinners Instruct the uninformed Feed the hungry Give drink to the thirsty Counsel the doubtful Comfort the sorrowful Clothe the naked Shelter the homeless Be patient with those in error Forgive offenses Comfort the imprisoned Visit the sick Pray for the living and the dead Bury the dead

HOLY THURSDAY PILGRIMAGE REVIVAL OF A TIMELESS TRADITION

Immediately following the 7:00 PM Mass of the Lord’s Supper, St. John Brebeuf Parish offers the opportunity to revive the age-old tradition of the “Visitation of Churches”. We are invited to pray with our Lord late into the night, through the sacrament of the Mass, followed by an evening visiting five “Altars of Repose” throughout Chicago. Chartered school buses will pick us up outside of St. John Brebeuf and will whisk us from church to church for our evening of prayer. The Churches we tentatively plan to visit are: St. Hyacinth Basilica, Holy Trinity, St. Stanislaus Kostka, St. John Cantius, and St. Mary of the Angels. The evening will end with night prayer at about midnight, when the buses return us to St. John Brebeuf. Reservations are not only a must, but they are limited too. Please fill out the form below and return it to the parish office, along with your donation of $10.00, to help defer

the expense of the buses, by Monday, March 21st. For additional information, please contact Barbara Bronder at 847-966-8145.

Drodzy Parafianie, Kobieta złapana na cudzołóstwie demonstruje głęboką troskę Jezusa o kobiety, które były celowo wykorzystywane przez uczonych w Piśmie i faryzeuszy, jako sposób podważania wiarygodności Jezusa. Jezus daje dwie odpowiedzi - jedną niewerbalną i drugą werbalną. Na początku Jezus nie mówi nic pochylając się tylko i pisząc na ziemi. Symbolicznie oznacza to Jezus nie chce angażować się w kwestie. Zdarza się, że nic nie mówiąc, nie bierzemy udziału w grze i to jest naszą najlepszą odpowiedzią. Jezus niejako ignoruje oskarżycieli i ich pytania. Druga odpowiedź Jezusa skierowana jest do uczonych w Piśmie i faryzeuszy. Porusza się poza pytaniem prawnym i skupia się na kwestii grzechu - nie grzech kobiety, ale jej oskarżycieli. Wzywa ich do odpowiedzialności, w której są przegrani. Począwszy od starszych do wszystkich innych, wstydliwie odchodzą. Nie ma żadnego potępienia dla tych kobiet, tylko współczucie. Z tych modlitwą podczas tych Wielkopostnych dni, Ks. Mike Meany,

13 marca: V Niedzielę Wielkiego Postu

W dzisiejszej Ewangelii Jezus jest wzorem współczucia i życzliwości. Pokazuje nam, jak być miłosiernym i nieskorym do osadzania. Czy ty, lub rodziny wiesz potrzebują pomocy? Proszę zadzwonić do Wspólnoty Świętego Wincentego Paolo, które może pomóc cierpiącym i ubogim. Wszystkie informacje będą poufne.

Święto Bożego Milosierdzia___________________________3 kwietnia, 2016 W Wielki Piątek 1937 roku, Jezus zwrócił się do Świętej Faustyny, aby odmówiła specjalną nowennę przed świętem Miłosierdzia, począwszy od Wielkiego Piątku i przez następną sobotę. Zasugerował Faustynie konkretne intencje w odmawianiu tej nowenny. (Te propozycje były dla niej, indywidualnie, ale mogą to być nasze intencje również). Dzień 1 Za całą ludzkość, a zwłaszcza wszystkich grzeszników Dzień 2 Za dusze kapłańskie i zakonne Dzień 3 Za wszystkie dusze pobożne i wierne Dzień 4 Za tych, którzy nie wierzą w Boga i tych, którzy nie znają Mnie Dzień 5 Za dusze tych, którzy oddzielili się od Mojego Kościoła Dzień 6 Za ciche i pokorne dusze i dusze małych dzieci Dzień 7 Za dusze, które szczególnie czczą i wysławiają miłosierdzie Moje Dzień 8 Za dusze, które są w czyśćcu cierpiące Dzień 9 Za dusze oziębłe Jezus powiedział: "Miłosierdzie masz okazywać zawsze i wszędzie bliźnim. Nie możesz się od tego usunąć ani wymówić, ani usprawiedliwić… Bo nawet wiara najsilniejsza nic nie pomoże bez uczynków (742)... Jeżeli dusza nie czyni miłosierdzia w jakikolwiek sposób, nie dostąpi miłosierdzia Mojego w dzień sądu (1317). Uczynki miłosierdzia, co do duszy 1. Grzesznych upominać 2. Nieumiejętnych pouczać 3. Wątpiącym dobrze radzić 4. Strapionych pocieszać 5. Krzywdy cierpliwie znosić 6. Urazy chętnie darować 7. Modlić się za żywych i umarłych.

Uczynki miłosierdzia, co do ciała 1. Głodnych nakarmić 2. Spragnionych napoić 3. Nagich przyodziać 4. Podróżnych w dom przyjąć 5. Więźniów pocieszać 6. Chorych nawiedzać 7. Umarłych pogrzebać
