Let’s Journey Togetherfrom Ashes to Glory

Turn away from tempation,turn toward grace

The Spirit drove Jesus out into the desert, and he remained in the desert for forty days, tempted by Satan. He was among wild beasts, and the angels ministered to him.

Mark 1:12-13

Dear Parishioners,

“Let’s journey together from ashes to glory.”

We have now entered the most spiritually rich time of the year. Lent is indeed a journey; a journey of re-newal, a journey of conver-sion, a journey of new life.

We have many ways to assist you on this forty-day journey. We have the ancient traditions of prayer, fasting and almsgiving.

We have wonderful Lenten refl ection books; “The Magnifi cat, Lenten Companion”. Please take home a copy. The Lenten calendar is full of suggestions and invitations. We are sharing in the parish mission held at St. Catherine’s. There are the Stations of the Cross, daily Mass and Eucharistic Adoration to name a few of the spiritual opportunities.

The Lenten days will pass quickly. There is such an opportunity to deepen your faith and witness to the powerful love of Jesus Christ. As a community we will be refl ecting on and supporting the outreach of Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos (NPH) USA. This remarkable organization supports orphaned, aban-doned and at-risk children throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. We have many events scheduled so that we can meet, celebrate with and pray along-side a group who will be here from Guatemala.

A special group on a journey that needs our prayer-ful support are our catechumens. We have several candidates in the RCIA. Fr. Lara and the RCIA team have had a great year preparing for the Easter sacra-ments on Holy Saturday. I really enjoyed visiting with them at their retreat last weekend. I am always so moved by people who make the grace-fi lled decision to deepen their faith and seek to join our community of faith. Our candidates bring so much to us!

Coming up, we have such great speakers promising to enrich our spiritual meditation. Fr. Rich Simon will be delivering the parish mission at St. Catherine’s, February 25 and 26. Fr. Nick is offering two distinct presentations on February 24 and March 3. Fr. John Kartje will give a presentation on Science versus Religion on March 4. Sr. Rosemary Connelly from Misericordia will be speaking on “Celebrate Life: People with Special Needs”. She is awesome. We have quite a lineup. Please see the bulletin for more details.

Congratulations again to our 8th graders who are being confi rmed. Last week’s Confi rmation was just beautiful and we have two more scheduled for March 18.

It was great to see so many of our teens at last week’s pizza party. Randy McGraw has many Lenten opportu-nities scheduled for your teens. Check it out!

Special thanks to all who helped with the Religious Education Bake Sale last week. In addition to selling, the kids did all the baking! They raised a lot of money for the Needy Family Fund. Thanks so much for all your hard work.

Speaking of hard work, our maintenance staff has done a terrifi c job with all the snow removal. We have so much to maintain here when it snows. They have been working around the clock when needed. I am so grateful for all that they do.

I enjoyed a great visit with the Men’s Club last week. Under the leadership of Andy Engels much has been happening. There’s lots of excitement building for the upcoming Roundball Tournament and St. Patrick’s Day Party on March 17.

Witnessing and assisting with the Women’s Club Trivia Night last week was a highlight; loved the event and energy! Ann Waris has overseen a great year.

Have a blessed week,Fr. Jerry Boland

OBSERVING LENT IN UNITY

As a community we will be observing Lent in unity with orphaned, abandoned and at-risk children through giving alms, supporting the outreach of Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos (NPH).

Most OLPH parishioners are familiar with the rice bowl collections we have conducted over the years to help observe the Lenten pillar of giving alms and benefi tting those served by Catholic Relief Services. Since a group of young people from NPH Guatemala will be staying with OLPH families for a good part of Lent, and will be joining us for our Masses on the weekend of March 10 and 11, OLPH is directing its almsgiving efforts this year to benefi t those served by Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos (Spanish for “Our Little Brothers and Sisters”), a unique network of orphan-age homes and community outreach programs in Latin America and the Caribbean. NPH is dedicated to improving the lives of orphaned, abandoned and at-risk children by delivering unconditional love, comprehensive healthcare and a quality education. The goal is to help children overcome the poverty into which they were born and to develop them into productive citizens who become leaders in their own communities.

The traditional Catholic pillars of observing Lent are prayer, fasting and almsgiving. Jesus said, "When you give alms, sound no trumpet before you, as the

seek, share, rejoice - pastor's letter

Father Jerry Boland

3FEBRUARY 18, 2018 • olphglenview.org

hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by men. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing" (Mt 6:2-3).

Note that Jesus said when you give alms, not if you give alms. Also, note that he wants almsgiving to be done quietly and with little fanfare.

Giving alms during Lent helps us focus on sharing what we have with others who have less than us. Doing so helps put us in communion with the least of God’s children and helps us understand that we are all children of God.

In the nine countries throughout Latin America and the Caribbean where NPH operates, the governments are happy to refer orphaned, abandoned and at-risk children to NPH homes, but they don’t provide fund-ing for them. Everything that NPH spends to support the young people it serves must be raised each year through fundraising efforts such as Lenten almsgiving and the special collection we will take up at Masses on the weekend of March 10 and 11.

NPH strives to be worthy recipients and good stew-ards of the almsgiving of others. For example, all NPH homes achieve some level of food self-suffi ciency in that all have farms and grow much of what they con-sume. They make as much as they can from scratch, which includes baking their own bread and tortillas. This not only serves to help stretch the charitable funds received, but it also helps to teach the young people valuable vocational skills related to agriculture and baking. NPH Guatemala has a large farm opera-tion that produces beans, tomatoes, onions, carrots and other vegetables at the main home location.

As much as NPH Guatemala strives to be self-suffi cient, it still must supplement its food service operation with purchases of food to achieve healthy levels of nutrition. Annually, those purchases total approximately $207,000 for roughly 300 young

people. That’s almost $2.00 per day (in addition to the expense of its farm operations). To put that in perspective, the US Dept. of Agriculture calculates that U.S. families with an annual household income of over $100,000 spend an average of $8.77 per day to feed a child between the ages of 12-14.

Please be generous when you are asked to give alms this Lent. Make a difference in the lives of or-phaned, abandoned and at-risk children in some of the poorest countries in our hemisphere.

Special almsgiving bags have been distributed to children enrolled in the OLPH Religious Education program and to OLPH School students. Additional bags have been placed just inside the entrances to OLPH Church. Please feel free to take a bag to use for giving alms.

Parishioner, Chuck AllwothMidwest Region Director, NPH USA

OPEN YOUR HEART AND HOME

We are preparing to welcome 13 young people and 2 chaperones from the NPH Guatemala orphanage home into our parish from March 6-19. They will be hosted by OLPH families in their homes and they will provide liturgical music at Masses on March 10/11.

We are in need of 14 volunteer families within OLPH Parish to host two young people, or the two chap-erones, in their homes. There will be two shifts of seven host families. The fi rst shift of host fami-lies is March 6-12 (six nights); the second shift is March 12-18 (seven nights). Please contact Heather Anderson from NPH USA at 312-386-7489 or hand-erson@nphusa.org for more information and to register as a host family.

An Idea For Lent...Come One, Come All!

Science vs. Religion: One Man’s Unique JourneyFor centuries, mankind has debated the issue of science and religion. Are they mutually exclusive? Can you truly pursue one discipline to the exclusion of the other? For many young people today, this is one of the issues they consider when examining faith. How can we possibly prove that God exists? What scientifi c methods can be employed to demonstrate the power of God?

Young people are not the only people who ask these questions. This problem has been debated throughout

the ages, from the time of the Greeks to modern times. Many of the world’s greatest scientists were believers, including Italian Galileo Galilei, whose scientifi c work confl icted with the Church’s teachings and for that he paid the price. Charles Darwin provided convincing arguments for evolution and yet delayed releasing his writings out of concern over the public’s reaction. So, how do we fi nd a way of embracing both scientifi c theory and our belief in God?

We have a unique perspective from a man many of you might know. Fr. John Kartje is the President of the University of St. Mary of the Lake (Mundelein Seminary) and so very much a Catholic priest. He is also an Astrophysicist with a Ph.D. from the University of Chicago.

At the height of his academic work, Fr. Kartje volunteered at a local hospital. While listening to the concerns and faith of very ill patients, he slowly felt the pull to another calling. At age 32, he set aside his scientifi c work to become a priest.

For Fr. Kartje, the path to understanding the issue of Science and Religion is in how you frame the question. How do you view the wisdom of the Bible? How do you reconcile what men have discovered about the deepest mysteries of the universe with the belief of God as the creator? Fr. Kartje argues that Science and Faith need not oppose one another but instead can complement one another. Wherever you fall in the debate, you will fi nd Fr. Kartje’s thoughtful refl ection on this subject inspiring and engaging.

Fr. Kartje’s presentation is part of a “mini-camp” speaker series designed especially for young people and their families to address some of the vexing problems of our day. It will be held on Sunday, March 4, at 4:00 pm in McDonnell Hall. Teens are invited to stay for pizza dinner. Fr. Kartje will preside at the 6:00 Mass. All are welcome! #eachonebringone

Sharing Ministry

LENTEN FOOD DRIVE - HELP FILL THE BASKETSOur food count typically dives during the winter months. This year is no exception. Please continue to hear the cry of the poor. Food donations can be dropped at the Sharing Room, the entries of Church or with the kids during the Sunday Offertory. Or, you may mail a donation (made out to the OLPH) to: Lou Marohn 2132 Fir Street Glenview, IL 60025Thank you for your compassionate response to those less fortunate!

HELP WANTED

Befriend a FamilyLent is underway and we are working to recruit more donors for our Befriend a Family effort providing support to families in need at holiday times; Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. If you are interested, we will match you with a needy family and you can provide food gift cards - and maybe more - to pro-vide for a brighter Easter holiday. This program helps families at our four sharing parishes as well as local families served by Sr. Paulanne. Donors choose the size family that works for them. The relationship re-mains on-going until the donor opts out or the family graduates from the program. Contact Stacy Dolan, stacydolan5@aol.com, for more information.

Sub Drivers for Occasional Local Pick UpsA rotating crew of OLPH volunteers meets weekday mornings behind Trader Joe’s to load up day-old goods to be delivered to local pantries. We are look-ing for a few substitute drivers to fi ll in from time to time. Heavy lifting and a larger vehicle are required. Contact Betty Collins, collinsjustbetty@gmail.com, for more information.

MONTHLY SHARING MEETING

Tuesday, February 20, 7:00 p.m. in Francis RoomThis meeting will include presentations from two organizations which combat homelessness. The Sharing Ministry supports both through resources that come to us through the Sharing Room.

Franciscan Outreach: Ed Jacob will speak about the important work being done by the Franciscan Fathers with the homeless who live on the fringes.

La Casa Norte: Jeanne Jacobson (OLPH Rep), Patti Morrel, Maryl Leonard and Ramaa Krishnan will talk about this outreach effort which serves youth and families facing homelessness.

Toiletries NeededToiletries are a luxury for people who are needy. Please donate travel or full-size toiletries. Donations can be delivered to the Sharing room entry anytime.

IMMEDIATE NEED

Non-Perishable Brown Bag Lunches – Sharing Room

Has No SupplyHungry, homeless people come to the rectory doors and visit the parish food pantries of our four sharing parishes daily in search of food. Our Sharing Parishes are often able to respond with brown lunch bags fi lled with non-perishable food provided by OLPH. These easy-to-assemble bags are donated by individuals, families, and groups. Bags contain: pre-packaged tuna or chicken salad with crackers, trail mix, peanut but-ter or cheese and crackers, 100% juice in box or can, dried fruit, fruit cup or applesauce, plastic spoon and napkin, optional: candy, power bars, and granola bars. Larger sized lunch bags work best. Contact Julie for more information at 847.909.0661.

Stewardship ReportGeneral Offertory - Year-to-Date, July 1 - January 31We're very fortunate to be among a community of good stewards. Thank you for your generosity. A few months ago, we reported our collections were lagging. Of late, the trend is positive and year-to-date collections are up 7.8%.

With so many demands, it is crucial that we're able to maintain this positive trend. Beyond supporting essential parish operating expenses, a stable offertory makes it possible - through our First Fruits Program - to fulfi ll mandated second collections, respond to special requests and support our Sharing Parishes, among other outreach efforts.

Please contact Jim Dollard, Director of Finance & Operations, with questions or concerns.

Domestic Violence Awareness Ministry ...you are not aloneMyth: It is easy for a victim to leave her abuser, so if she doesn't leave, it means she likes the abuse or is exaggerating how bad it is.

Fact: Fear, lack of safe options, and inability to survive economically prevent many women from leaving abusive relationships. Threats of harm, including death to the victim and/or chil-dren keep many battered women trapped in abusive situations.

seek, share, rejoice - annual scout mass...On February 4, at 7:30 Mass, we celebrated OLPH’s annual Scout Mass. Eleven members of Cub Scout Pack 57 earned the Light of Christ and Parvuli Dei (Children of God) awards, given in special recognition by the Catholic Church to a Cub Scout for advancement in religious knowledge and spiritual growth.

Eight members of Boy Scout Troop 57 received the Ad Altare Dei (To the Altar of God) religious award. This award focuses on the seven sacraments to help the Scouts in their spiritual growth and in the development of their faith life. (The medals were awarded by Bishop Perry at Holy Name Cathedral, January 28.)

The St. George Emblem award (presented by Bishop J. Perry at Holy Name Cathedral, January 28) recognizes adults in the Archdiocese for their signifi cant contributions and many years of support for the Catholic Youth Ministry at the local level. Recipients are chosen by a selection committee of the Archdiocese Catholic Committee on Scouting.

Alexander Quezada II, a senior at New Trier High School, is the newest Eagle Scout from OLPH Troop 57. Eagle Scout is the highest rank attainable in the Boy Scouts of America program. The requirements necessary to achieve this rank take years to fulfi ll, including earning at least 21 merit badges, demonstrating Scout spirit, service, and leadership, and completing an extensive service project that the Scout plans, organizes, leads, and manages.

OLPH Boy Scout Troop 57 and Cub Scout Pack 57 received the Pope Paul VI Gold Level Award for National Catholic Unit Excellence at a ceremony at Holy Name Cathedral on January 28, marking the 44th year that OLPH’s Scout units have received this award.

First Friday Club of ChicagoWelcomes Father David Kelly, Precious Blood Ministry of Reconciliation Chaplain, Cook County Jail and Juvenile Detention Center - Friday, March 2, from 12:00-1:15 pm, at the Union League Club. His topic: “Violence is a Three-Sided Coin”

The out-of-control violence that plagues so many pockets of Chicago focuses on two elements: per-petrators and victims. Our criminal justice system involves laws and punishment. Very little energy of-fered to the victim or to the process of healing.

Fr. Dave Kelly earned his Doctorate of Ministry from the Catholic Theological Union. His thesis is entitled: "Responding to the Violence Among Urban Youth: a Restorative Approach.” Learn how his Restorative Justice Program seeks to restore peace, fi x the harm and pain by working together with the victim, the offender, and the community.
