When you enter our property off of Britton Road, the firstthing
you see is the shrine dedicated to Mary in front of therectory,
behind the sign that welcomes you to St. Stephen Church.Mike
Haburay must have spent many hours working on it while I
was away on vacation because it looks great with the new
largestones that encircle it & with some of the old shrubbery
removed.I believe there is also a walkway that will be installed as
well. Ourparish thanks Mike and Deacon Pete for a job well done! It
will beenjoyed for years to come by people who enter our sacred
spacehere in West Salem.
We also thank Bev Zeigler who volunteered to coordinatethe
Parish Picnic that we had last Sunday. We had a nice numberof
people who enjoyed food, games & just the chance to sit
around& talk to fellow members of the parish. The tables &
chairs wereset up under the pine cone trees & God gave us a
beautiful day toenjoy the outdoors. Thanks to Bev & to all who
broughtsomething. Well have details soon of the campfire &
hayrides
that will be coming up in October.Life is always a mixture of
good news & bad, ofblessings & the need for prayer. Lois
Yehlik is one of those inneed of your prayers as she faces
treatment for cancer that wasdiscovered when she was about to have
knee surgery. Frank &Lois have been parishioners for a long
time & it wasnt too long
ago that Frank recovered from knee surgery. They will be
keepingme informed of the plan to attack this illness and your
prayers arevery much needed & appreciated. Please say a prayer
right now &ask Our Lady Help of the Sick to intercede on Loiss
behalf.
We also turn to the one who prays for us now and at the
hour of death as we fondly remember Lois Soria who passed
away and whose Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated this
pastWednesday. Lois had just entered hospice a few days before
shewas called home to God. She and Patrick used to attend
biblestudy on Thursday mornings with Fr. Uhler and she had a
greatdevotion to the Divine Mercy. She had been using a walker
& wason oxygen for some time, but faithfully came to church
with Pat.May she rest in the peace of that Divine Mercy.

What is Catholic teaching on labor and capitalism?
Catholic teaching on Labor developed in the 19th centuwith the
industrial revolution. Owners of industry primarprofited, while
laborers sank into poverty. The Churchs view
capitalism concerns the common good and the system should
nbecome a mere means for individuals to make profits. The
Chursupports a free-market system which is at the service of
maprevents monopolies, and ensures that all are supplied
wemployment and vitally necessary goods.
