OUR EASTER SEASON JOURNEY TO NEW LIFE As we continue to celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord during this Easter season, we know deep in our hearts that the road to resurrection and new life may be the one we least expect. In his book Show Me the Way, Henri Nouwen describes our Lord’s life as one of “hiddenness.” In other words, Christ’s journey toward resurrection and new life was paradoxically one of downward mobility, a life where power, popularity and ambition had no value. The Light of Christ still shines through the darkness, even in the midst of this pandemic when coronavirus is attacking our world. Let us continue to be Christ’s light, reaching out to the elderly, infirmed, hungry, unemployed, and isolated. As we reach out to the most vulnerable, let us neither seek nor desire power, popularity nor upward mobility. Let our only concern be to fill the hearts of our hurting brothers and sisters with the warmth and love of Christ. May we also continue to be instruments of Christ’s light, breaking through and shattering the darkness that so many of our brothers and sisters are experiencing during this most challenging time. Thank you for continuing to bring love, light and hope to others, especially those affected by this invisible enemy. As always, be assured of my prayers for you and your loved ones. God bless and keep safe, — Monsignor Jim Kaczorowski, Pastor

NUESTRO VIAJE DE PASCUA A LA NUEVA VIDA A la vez que continuamos celebrando la Resurrección de nuestro Señor durante esta temporada de Pascua, sabemos profundamente en nuestros corazones que el camino hacia la resurrección y la nueva vida puede ser el que menos esperamos. En su libro Show Me the Way (Muéstrame el Camino), Henri Nouwen describe la vida de nuestro Señor como una de “ocultamiento.” En otras palabras, el viaje de Cristo hacia la resurrección y la nueva vida fue, paradójicamente, un viaje sin búsqueda de prestigio, una vida donde el poder, la popularidad y la ambición no tenían valor. La Luz de Cristo aún brilla a través de la oscuridad, incluso en medio de esta pandemia del coronavirus que está atacando nuestro mundo. Sigamos siendo la luz de Cristo, cuidando a los ancianos, enfermos, hambrientos, desempleados y aislados. A medida que nos acercamos a los más vulnerables, no busquemos ni deseemos poder, popularidad ni prestigio. Que nuestra única preocupación sea llenar los corazones de nuestros hermanos y hermanas heridos, con la calidez y el amor de Cristo. Que también sigamos siendo instrumentos de la luz de Cristo, rompiendo y venciendo la oscuridad que tantos de nuestros hermanos y hermanas están sufriendo durante este momento tan desafiante. Gracias por continuamente brindar amor, luz y esperanza a los demás, especialmente a los afectados por este enemigo invisible. Como siempre, sepan que mis oraciones están con ustedes y sus seres queridos. Dios los bendiga y los mantenga fuera de peligro, — Monseñor Jim Kaczorowski, Párroco

PRAYER FOR SPIRITUAL COMMUNION for when we cannot receive the Eucharist

My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot

at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

ORACION PARA COMULGAR ESPIRITUALMENTE cuando no podemos recibir la Eucaristía

Jesús mío, creo que Tú estás en el Santísimo Sacramento; te amo sobre todas las cosas y deseo recibirte ahora dentro de mi alma; ya que no te puedo recibir sacramentalmente, ven a lo menos espiritualmente a mi

corazón. Señor, no soy digno ni merezco que entres en mi pobre morada pero di una sola palabra y mi alma será sana, salva y perdonada.

El Cuerpo, la Sangre, el Alma y la Divinidad de Nuestro Señor Jesucristo, guarden mi alma para la vida eterna. Amén.

RENEW MY CHURCH UPDATE: PASTOR NAMED FOR MERGED PARISH Dear parishioners of Queen of Angels and St. Matthias, You are all in my prayers during this Easter season as we begin to build our new reality as the Catholic presence in Lincoln Square. I would like to share with you the decision of Cardinal Cupich that I have been appointed the Pastor for the new parish to be formed from Queen of Angels and St. Matthias parishes as of August 1. I pray that the two parishes will work together to become one family, serving all people without exception and according to their needs. On each parish website is a short history of my priesthood as well as the letter from Cardinal Cupich appointing me and the emergency decree extending the merger date from July 1 to August 1 due to the pandemic. As we journey together through these challenging times, let us stay connected through prayer and reaching out to one another. I will begin to work with the leadership teams from both parishes to do what we can to make Christ more alive in us and through us as we merge our communities. Please keep checking the current parish websites and your emails so you can stay involved in this important work of forming the community of Queen of Angels and St. Matthias Parish. Please be assured of my prayers and support. God bless,

Monsignor Jim Kaczorowski

About Monsignor James T. Kaczorowski After ordination on May 9, 1973, Father Jim Kaczorowski was assigned to St. Michael Parish in the South Shore neighborhood. He was reassigned in 1981 as Pastor of St. Adalbert in Pilsen. There he worked with the Latino community on justice issues, catechesis in Spanish and urban renewal through the Resurrection Project. During this time, he also served as professor of medical ethics at the nursing college of St. Mary of Nazareth Hospital (1984-1987), was Dean of the parishes in Pilsen and Little Village (1988-1992) and President of the Presbyteral Council (1992-1996). In 2000, Father Jim became the Vicar for Priests while residing at Our Lady of Lourdes Parish. Since 2005, he has been Pastor at Queen of Angels Parish and the Dean of Deanery II-C. He was given the honorary title of Monsignor as a Chaplain to His Holiness in 2010. He has also been Administrator of Resurrection Parish in the Avondale neighborhood since September 21, 2018. Monsignor Jim is honored to be a parish priest, a servant leader in building God's kingdom on earth, and helping parishioners and priests to become the best possible versions of themselves—spiritually, intellectually, emotionally and physically.

RENUEVA MI IGLESIA: UN PÁRROCO PARA LA PARROQUIA UNIDA Estimados feligreses de Reina de los Ángeles y S. Matías, Todos Uds. están en mis oraciones durante esta temporada de Pascua cuando comenzamos a construir nuestra nueva realidad como la presencia católica en Lincoln Square. Quisiera compartir con Uds. la decisión del cardenal Cupich de que he sido nombrado Párroco para la nueva parroquia que se formará de las parroquias Reina de los Ángeles y S. Matías a partir del 1 de agosto. Ruego que los feligreses de los dos parroquias trabarán juntos para convertirnos en una sola familia, sirviendo a todas las personas sin excepción y de acuerdo con sus necesidades. En cada sitio web parroquial hay una breve historia de mi sacerdocio, así como la carta de nominación del cardenal Cupich y el decreto de emergencia que pospone la fecha de unión del 1 de julio al 1 de agosto debido a la pandemia. A medida que viajamos juntos a través de estos tiempos difíciles, permanezcamos conectados a través de la oración y comunicándonos los unos a los otros. Comenzaré a trabajar con los equipos de liderazgo de ambas parroquias para hacer lo que podamos para hacer que Cristo esté más vivo en nosotros y a través de nosotros a medida que fusionamos nuestras comunidades. Por favor, siga revisando los sitios web de las actuales parroquias y sus correos electrónicos para que pueda permanecer involucrado en esta importante obra de formar la comunidad de la Parroquia Reina de los Ángeles y San Matías. Por favor, estén seguro de mis oraciones y apoyo. Que Dios los bendiga,

Monseñor Jim Kaczorowski

Durante este tiempo, también se desempeñó como Profesor de ética médica en el Colegio de Enfermería del Hospital de Sta. María de Nazaret (1984-1987), fue Decano de las parroquias en Pilsen y la Villita (1988-1992) y Presidente del Consejo Presbiteral (1992-1996).

GIVECENTRAL MEETS PARISH NEED During these unprecedented times, we urge our parishioners to use GiveCentral to support Queen of Angels. The business of the parish continues even if the church is closed. Thank you to those who have followed this request and, in the last few weeks, made new gifts or continued donations through GiveCentral. GiveCentral.org is a secure online system where parishioners create individual giving profiles with payment options ranging from direct debit (ACH) to credit cards. Every transaction is securely recorded and saved in your own payment history. Thank you to the increasing number of parishioners now making donations to Queen of Angels through our online donation service. By giving electronically, your regular gifts can be made consistently and easily as you continue to support our Catholic community. Donations can also be made on a one-time basis without creating a profile. It is convenient for

parishioners, reduces the risks associated with transporting checks or cash, and makes it easier for the parish to budget. On GiveCentral you can sign up to give separate donations in different events (categories or buckets), similar to using different envelopes for second collections. Once you locate Queen of Angels on the GiveCentral.org website, choose Sunday Collection or click “View More” to find these additional events: • Sharing Parish—BVM: Benefits our sister church in the Sharing program, Maternity BVM in Humboldt Park. • St. Vincent de Paul Donation: Normally at the holiday Mass on Memorial Day and other national holidays, for the

needs of the poor in our community. • Catholic Charities (May): Aids the efforts of Catholic social service ministries to help women, children and families in

need in Cook and Lake Counties. • Lyman Fund Donation: Enables children to remain in our parish school during a parent’s financial hardship. No matter how you choose to support the parish, thank you for your continuing participation in our mission.

LETTER FROM CARDINAL CUPICH: THE PLAN TO RE-OPEN OUR CHURCHES

May 17, 2020 Sixth Sunday of Easter Page Five

Dear Friends in Christ, These fifty days of Easter, leading to Pentecost, are marked by unprecedented suffering, as humanity has fallen victim to a perilous contagion. In addition to the threats to our physical wellbeing, we are suffering spiritually as the Covid-19 pandemic has required restrictions of our worship and active participation in the sacramental life of the Church. Surely, there have been moments in history when governments and rulers have persecuted Christians and banned their public worship. This is not one of them. Rather, the present restrictions come in response to an extreme medical emergency as local, state and federal authorities – specifically public health officials – legitimately fulfil their responsibilities to safeguard human life and the common good. They have based their reasonable guidance on careful consideration of empirical data and the best available disease-mitigation practices as they seek to contain the pandemic’s rampage through our communities. While everyone must exercise good citizenship in observing these restrictions, I call on the Catholic faithful, as advocates for justice and charity, to comply with these regulations. From the first pages of Scripture we learn that we indeed are “our brother’s keeper,” a truth that must inspire us as we are called to sacrifice. We should also be motivated to cooperate with public safety norms, given our reverence for life and human dignity. This is, at its heart, a moment to proclaim the breadth and depth of what it means to be pro-life, particularly as this virus preys on the most vulnerable in our midst. The good news is that a plan for a gradual re-opening of our churches has now taken shape, as I note below. However, since our movements will be restricted as that plan unfolds in different phases, your pastors and bishops will continue for the present time to offer Mass in private each day and to livestream and broadcast Masses

from our parishes and the archdiocese. I am particularly grateful to ABC-TV, Univision and Polvision in Chicago for giving us airtime every Sunday. These celebrations surely are not the same as gathering in our churches for Mass, but I know from hearing from many parishioners that they provide a great deal of solace and support in this time of uncertainty. We must be honest. We expect this situation to continue for some weeks, and any plan for reopening our churches for public worship must include every precaution to ensure public gatherings do not create a second wave of contagion, thus squandering the gains made through our sacrifice in these days. With those realities in mind, I am heartened to announce that we have reached an agreement with the Office of the Governor on a multi-phase Plan for re-opening our churches for the celebration of the sacraments, private prayer, adoration and Mass. As I share the Plan with you, both by way of an Executive Summary and the full Plan in the following pages, I want to assure you of my prayers for you and your family’s personal, material and spiritual wellbeing. I also express my appreciation to the many people on the archdiocesan staff and in the Office of the Governor for the many hours they have given to designing and fine tuning this agree-ment. Again, I call on all Catholics to seize this moment to exercise faith-filled citizenship in a way that reflects our deep regard for life, our calling as disciples of Jesus and our love of country. Sincerely yours in Christ, Cardinal Cupich, Archbishop of Chicago Queen of Angels Parish is reviewing the archdiocesan plan and getting ready for online trainings which will begin this coming week. To read the executive summary and the full re-opening plan described by the Cardinal, please visit archchicago.org.

LEARNING CONTINUES FROM HOME Though the governor has extended the stay-at-home order through May 30 and announced that all Illinois schools will remain closed for the remainder of the school year, Queen of Angels School continues with distance learning from home. Teachers have moved lessons online and created digital spaces to interact with their students, and families are adapting to continue instruction at home as best they can. Classes have not been able to meet in person at the school since Friday, March 13. Please visit the school’s Facebook page for daily video prayers, staff reading their favorite books to students, tributes to the graduating Eighth Graders, highlights from the virtual Spring Concert, and more at facebook.com/Queen-of-Angels-School-77467313549/.

A CALL TO PRAYER: A Light in the Darkness Prayer can help to strengthen our bonds with one another and with God, regardless of our faith identities. By turning to prayer, we call forth a light in the darkness. • Who we are: Volunteers from across the Archdiocese of

Chicago who feel called to accompany anyone feeling the need to pray during this time of uncertainty and isolation.

• What we offer: A phone line staffed from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, as well as 24-hour voicemail and e-mail connections. Our prayer partners are here to pray with you — opening our hearts to God, asking for his blessings and peace.

CARTA DEL CARDENAL CUPICH: EL PLAN DE RE-ABRIR NUESTRAS IGLESIAS Estimados amigos en Cristo,

Estos 50 días de Pascua que llevan a Pentecostés, están marcados por un sufrimiento sin precedentes, a medida que la humanidad ha caído víctima de un peligroso contagio. Además de las amenazas a nuestro bienestar físico, estamos sufriendo espiritualmente porque la pandemia de Covid-19 ha requerido restricciones de nuestro culto y participación en la vida sacramental de la iglesia. Sin duda, ha habido momentos en la historia en que gobiernos y gobernantes han perseguido a los cristianos y prohibido su culto público.

Este no es uno de ellos. En cambio, las restricciones actuales vienen en respuesta a una emergencia médica extrema mientras las autoridades locales, estatales y federales—específicamente los oficiales de salud pública—legítimamente cumplen sus responsabilidades de proteger la vida humana y el bien común. Ellos han basado su orientación razonable en la cuidadosa consideración de datos empíricos y las mejores prácticas de mitigación de la enfermedad disponibles, mientras buscan contener el ataque de la pandemia a lo largo de nuestras comunidades.

Aunque todos deben ejercer una buena ciudadanía al observar estas restricciones, llamo a los fieles católicos, como defensores de la justicia y la caridad, a que cumplan con estas regulaciones. Desde las primeras páginas de la Escritura aprendemos que de hecho somos “el guardián de nuestro hermano”, una verdad que debe inspirarnos mientras somos llamados al sacrificio. También debemos estar motivados a cooperar con las normas de seguridad pública, dada nuestra reverencia por la vida y la dignidad humana. Este es, en su esencia, un momento para proclamar el alcance y la profundidad de lo que significa ser provida, particularmente a medida que este virus se ensaña con los más vulnerables entre nosotros.

La buena noticia es que un plan para una reapertura gradual de nuestras iglesias ahora ha tomado forma, como menciono más adelante. Sin embargo, ya que nuestros movimientos estarán restringidos a medida que ese plan se desarrolla en diferentes fases, sus pastores y obispos continuarán por el momento ofreciendo misa en privado cada día y trasmitiendo en vivo y difundiendo las

misas desde nuestras parroquias y la arquidiócesis. Estoy particularmente agradecido con ABC-TV, Univisión y Polvision en Chicago por darnos tiempo al aire cada domingo. Estas celebraciones ciertamente no son lo mismo que reunirse en nuestras iglesias para la misa, pero yo sé, por lo que he escuchado de muchos feligreses, que proveen mucho consuelo y apoyo en este momento de incertidumbre.

Debemos ser honestos. Esperamos que esta situación continúe por algunas semanas, y cualquier plan para reabrir nuestras iglesias para el culto público debe incluir todas las precauciones para garantizar que las reuniones públicas no creen una segunda ola de contagio, desperdiciando lo que hemos ganado a través de nuestro sacrificio en estos días.

Con estas realidades en mente, me siento animado al anunciar que hemos llegado a un acuerdo con la Oficina del Gobernador en un Plan en múltiples fases para la reapertura de nuestras iglesias para la celebración de los sacramentos, oración privada, adoración y misa. A medida que comparto el Plan con ustedes, tanto por la vía de un Resumen Ejecutivo como el Plan completo en las siguientes páginas, quiero garantizarles mis oraciones por ustedes y el bienestar personal, material y espiritual de su familia. También expreso mi aprecio a las muchas personas en el personal arquidiocesano y en la Oficina del Gobernador por las muchas horas que han brindado para diseñar y ajustar este acuerdo. Una vez más, llamo a todos los católicos a aprovechar este momento para ejercer una ciudadanía llena de fe, de manera que refleje nuestro profundo respeto por la vida, nuestro llamado como discípulos de Jesús y nuestro amor al país.

Sinceramente suyo en Cristo, Cardenal Blase J. Cupich Arzobispo de Chicago

La Parroquia Reina de los Angeles está revisando el plan y preparándose para los entrenamientos por internet que comenzarán la semana que viene. Para leer el Resumen Ejecutivo y el Plan completo de reapertura descrito por el Cardenal, visite archchicago.org/coronavirus/reopening.

Jesús dijo: “Yo le rogaré al Padre y él les dará otro Paráclito para que esté siempre con ustedes, el Espíritu de la verdad.”

SPECIAL COLLECTIONS We are very thankful and appreciative of donations being made during these unprecedented times. Your consistent sacrifice is making a difference and helps us pay the bills that continue to accrue. God bless your generosity, whether you give online via GiveCentral, mail envelopes, or drop gifts in the mailbox.
