Notre Dame de Chicago Parish 2 Ascension of the Lord From the desk of the Pastor... Del escritorio del Pastor... The Year of the Sacraments...one word at a time Change. We believe that in the Mass, when the priest invokes the Holy Spirit and repeats the words of Jesus, the elements of bread and wine are changed into the reality of his Body and Blood. In faith, we can affirm that this happens, but we cannot explain with any precision how it happens, as much as we might want to. The how remains a mystery. And there is another important dimension of change that calls for our close attention. Not only do the elements of bread and wine change, but we who take within ourselves the Body and Blood of the Lord are radically transformed. Jesus says, "Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day." (John 6:54) The Eucharist changes us in the most radical way imaginable, from mortal beings subject to death to children of God raised up to new and eternal life. May the Eucharist continue to nourish every member of our parish community! Of many things Hopefully, our parish offices have a new temporary space! You can enter the office from the "specially marked doorway". There is also a doorbell. Our parish phone line: 312-243-7400 has been re-located to this office. Thanks for your patience during the restoration of the rectory after the fire! The renovation of our restrooms in the lower church hall is complete! Please continue paying your pledges to the To Teach Who Christ Is campaign. This money goes directly to the cost of the restrooms. Please consider making a special gift to the restroom project! Joy and peace, Msgr. Pat El Año de los Sacramentos... una palabra a la Cambiar tiempo. Creemos que en la Misa, cuando el sacerdote invoca el Espíritu Santo y repite las palabras de Jesús, los elementos del pan y el vino se convierten en la realidad de su Cuerpo y su Sangre. En la fe, podemos afirmar que esto ocurre, pero no podemos explicar con precisión cómo sucede, tanto como lo que se quiere. La forma sigue siendo un misterio. Y hay otra dimensión importante del cambio que requiere nuestra atención. No sólo los elementos del pan y del vino el cambio, pero que toman dentro de nosotros el Cuerpo y la Sangre del Señor somos transformados radicalmente. Jesús dice: "El que come mi carne y bebe mi sangre tiene vida eterna, y yo le resucitaré en el día postrero." (Juan 06:54) La Eucaristía nos cambia de la manera más radical imaginable, desde los seres mortales sujetos a la muerte a los hijos de Dios que levantó a la vida nueva y eterna. Que la Eucaristía seguir para nutrir a todos los miembros de nuestra comunidad parroquial! De muchas cosas...... Esperemos que nuestras oficinas parroquiales tienen un nuevo espacio temporal! Puede entrar en la oficina de la "puerta de entrada especialmente marcado". También hay un timbre de la puerta. Nuestra línea telefónica de la parroquia: 312-243-7400 ha sido re-situado a esta oficina. Gracias por su paciencia durante la restauración de la casa parroquial después del incendio! La renovación de nuestros baños en el salón de la iglesia inferior es completa! Por favor, seguir pagando sus promesas de la campaña de enseñar quién es Cristo. Este dinero va directamente al coste de los servicios sanitarios. Por favor considere hacer un regalo especial al proyecto baño! La alegría y la paz, Monseñor Pat Where will you go when it is time for retirement? Maybe you are already in your golden years and enjoying some welldeserved relaxation. Did you plan well? Finances can be a little tighter than anticipated, and maybe that house that held up all those years now needs a little work. Life is never exactly the way we planned it or envisioned it. Life always has the tendency to take us by surprise. In terms of what comes next after this earthly life, we know there is a place prepared for those who love the Lord and heed his words. We do not know what it looks like or exactly which people we will see there, but we know it is better than anything we have experienced previously in life. This place, not defined by human perceptions of space and time, is eternal and perfect, and it is where Jesus sits at the right hand of God. The Ascension of the Lord provides for us a hope that, after whatever trials of this life we experience, there is rest in the Savior's arms. The Incarnation, God made flesh, rose from the dead and now is with the Father so that we could rise from the dead and live eternally with the Father. This is good news!

This should then show us the importance of this day in the life of the church in the world. It is no surprise that Pope Francis would choose the topic of "Communicating the family: a privileged place of encounter with the gift of love" as the theme this year.

In response to that synod, there is a widely cast net as the church asks for our input on many topics that effect the family. The family, whether it is a single man or woman living alone, a married couple with or without children, a community of religious men or women living in community, or the family of nations, is the place where God speaks to the people. Love is present wherever people first think of another person, before thinking of themselves. Sacrificial love, that action of wanting and working for another person, is perfectly embodied in the sacrificial love of Christ on the cross, or of parents working for the betterment of their family, instead of themselves. It is indeed an "encounter with the gift of love." May we all, this year, mark this World Communications Day as a day to pray for and work for someone other than ourselves.
Notre Dame de Chicago Parish 4 Ascension of the Lord His Eminence Francis Eugene Cardinal George, O.M.I., eighth Archbishop of Chicago, was born in Chicago to Francis J. and Julia R. McCarthy George on January 16, 1937. He was the first native Chicagoan to serve as Archbishop of Chicago and the first Cardinal to retire as Archbishop of Chicago. Cardinal George passed away on Friday, April 17, 2015, at the Residence. In accordance with Church law, Cardinal George submitted his letter of resignation as Archbishop of Chicago to Pope Benedict XVI on January 16, 2012, which was his 75th birthday. Pope Francis named Most Rev. Blase J. Cupich as Cardinal George s successor and the ninth Archbishop of Chicago on September 20, 2014. After attending St. Pascal Grade School on Chicago s northwest side and St. Henry Preparatory Seminary in Belleville, Illinois, he entered the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate on August 14, 1957. He studied theology at the University of Ottawa, Canada, and was ordained a priest by Most Rev. Raymond Hillinger on December 21, 1963, at St. Pascal Church. Cardinal George earned a master s degree in philosophy at the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. in 1965 and a doctorate in American philosophy at Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1970 and, in 1971, a master s degree in theology from the University of Ottawa in Canada. During those years, he also taught philosophy at the Oblate Seminary in Pass Christian, Mississippi from 1964 until 1967, Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1968 and at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska from 1969 until 1973. From 1973 until 1974 he was Provincial Superior of the Midwestern Province for the Oblates, based in St. Paul, Minnesota. He was then elected Vicar General of the Oblates and served in Rome from 1974 until 1986. He returned to the United States and became coordinator of the Circle of Fellows for the Cambridge Center for the Study of Faith and Culture in Cambridge, Massachusetts from 1987 until 1990. During that time, he obtained a Doctorate of Sacred Theology in ecclesiology from the Pontifical Urban University, Rome, Italy, in 1988. Pope John Paul II appointed him Bishop of Yakima on July 10, 1990. He was ordained and installed as the fifth bishop of Yakima on September 21, 1990, in Holy Family Church, Yakima. He served there for five and a half years before being appointed Archbishop of Portland in Oregon by Pope John Paul II on April 30, 1996. He was installed on May 27, 1996 as the ninth Archbishop of Portland in St. Mary s Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, Portland. Less than a year later, on April 8, 1997, Pope John Paul II named him the eighth Archbishop of Chicago, to the See left vacant by the death of Joseph Cardinal Bernardin on November 14, 1996. His installation by the Most Rev. Agostino Cacciavillan, Apostolic Pro-Nuncio, took place at Holy Name Cathedral on May 7, 1997. On January 18, 1998, Pope John Paul II announced Archbishop George s elevation to the Sacred College of Cardinals. At the Consistory of February 21, 1998, Cardinal George was assigned San Bartolomeo all Isola in Rome, as his titular church.
