Just a Thought...
February 28, 2016
One of the pieces I mentioned
last week in my homily, having
just returned from Rome, was
my experience of encountering
Fr. Tom Hurley
a profound lay movement called
San Egidio. Located in the Trastevare area of Rome,
this community began in 1968 by a young high school
graduate named Andreas whose desire and compelling
need was to gather people and do three things: pray,
work for peace, and serve the poor. Today, San Egidio
is a Catholic lay movement that has more than 70,000
members around the world.
The “success” of Old St. Patrick’s Church for many years
has been primarily due to the incredible energy and
involvement by the people who comprise its community.
So many of the expressions of our mission were generated
by great people who said, “I have an idea!” Great people,
motivated by the gospel call to build up the Kingdom,
have allowed this Church to grow and flourish….and it
continues. We are a great movement!
One of the more recent expressions of our Mission has
come through some outstanding people who said a few
years ago, “We’re no longer in our young adult years.
Our kids are grown, the nest is empty, and our wisdom
of age and faith will be the gift we’d like to bring to Old
St. Pat’s.” Thus, Encore was born! While I don’t mean to
focus solely on Encore, I would like to use this space to
do a commercial announcement for something significant
they are hosting: a retreat. In our e-newsletter, you will
see an invitation to participate in a retreat being hosted
by Edwina Gateley. (If you are not currently on our mailing
list, email Lauren Kezon at LaurenK@oldstpats.org to sign
up.)
Perhaps that name may not mean much to many, but let
me tell you: for Encore to have landed Edwina Gateley
for this retreat is a HUGE deal. Edwina Gateley is the
real deal. She is a highly sought-after presenter. The first
time I heard her speak was in college and she had the
audience eating out of her hand. She is very compelling
as a speaker and her content is so rich. Edwina is a poet,
theologian, artist, writer, lay minister, modern day mystic
and prophetess, and a single mom. Edwina founded a
volunteer missionary movement that serves thousands
2
around the world. For over 30 years, she has committed
herself to befriending and ministering to those who
live on the streets, particularly women in prostitution,
transforming their lives. Her stories are extremely
powerful!
Here’s my pitch, there’s still space available for this retreat
happening April 8 through 10 over in Lincoln Park on
Fullerton at the Chicago Cenacle: GO FOR IT! You will
be enriched. A big thanks to the Encore crowd for putting
this together. It’s open to anyone and everyone.
Finally, another pitch of significant proportion: as we all
know, the state of Illinois is in a terrible crisis and we are
somehow still operating without a budget. As a result,
many people who rely on state funded social services are
struggling, big time! And we too, around this campus of
Old St. Pat’s, have noticed an increase in those requesting
assistance. I received word the other day from Catholic
Charities of Chicago asking us to convey a message of
urgent need to representatives and senators in this state
and to pass the Illinois budget. The vulnerable suffer the
loss of social services because one of its biggest providers,
Catholic Charities, cannot sustain its work without state
funding.
Every 30 seconds someone counts on Catholic Charities
for help! Please lend your voice to advocate for the State
of Illinois to end its budget stalemate and pass a budget
that cares for the poor in our communities. Whether you
know this or not, Catholic Charities is already owed more
than $25 million by the State for the services they provide,
a number that grows by at least $2 million every month!
That’s unreal.
On behalf of Catholic Charities, please call your state
elected officials. Tell them you’re calling on behalf of the
poor and vulnerable who depend on the state’s safety net
of human services, especially the more than 1 million
people served by Catholic Charities in Chicago. If you
don’t know who your elected officials are, you can call the
Board of Elections 217.782.4141 or www.elections.il.org
and click on New District/Official Search. Thank you for
advocating for the poor.
A Holy and Merciful Lent,
Father Tom Hurley, Pastor

Expected Sufferings
By: Al Gustafson
I am of the nature to grow old.
There is no way to escape growing old.
I am of the nature to have ill health.
There is no way to escape having ill health.
I am of the nature to die.
There is no way to escape death.
All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the
nature to change
There is no way to escape being separated from them.
- Thich Nhat Hahn (Buddhist monk)
As a young Catholic, the season of Lent always
seemed so heavy and frankly, a little depressing.
What is the attraction to a season that begins
with the smearing of ashes and a reminder of our
mortality?
Now in my sixth decade of being a Catholic, Lent
has become my favorite of all the liturgical seasons.
For one reason, it can be a profound wake up call
because it invites us to gaze where we often resist
gazing. When I failed to see the value of Lent, it was
during a time in my life when I looked forward to
getting older. Now that is no longer the case, and
Lent invites me to look where I would rather not.
The implications of our aging seem awfully
threatening to our ordinary sense of who we are.
However, the admonition dust to dust has lost some
of its impact, as we have heard it too many times.
For me, diapers to diapers carries a whole lot more
punch. Let’s face it, if we live long enough, diapers
to diapers says something significant and startling
about our life trajectory. We all know this is the
course of human life; we just seldom put our sense
of “me” into the equation.
At 53, in the youth of my old age, I hope to one day
mature into an elder, which certainly means more
3
than simply becoming elderly. It involves ripening
into a clear-eyed acceptance of the way things
actually are. This ripening is an ongoing multifaceted reckoning with the fact that everything that
can be lost will be lost. It is simply the nature of
things. None of what we work so hard to possess
and cling so tightly to lasts.
Awareness that everything passes away can be
our wake up call, inviting us to align our time and
energy with the things that matter most in our lives.
It can also afford us a deep appreciation of the gift
of each day we live. This may be the reason that
some Buddhist monks eat their rice out of the skulls
of their dead monk brothers. Seems gruesome, but
there is nothing like coming face to face with our
mortality if we wish to grow in wonder, humility and
gratitude.
Lent is about more than facing our expected
sufferings and mortality though. It is certainly
about Jesus, and it is the Stations of the Cross I find
particularly moving. The Stations invite us to enter
more deeply into Jesus’ humanity as well as our own.
As Paul tells us in Philippians, although he was in
the form of God, he, out of love, emptied himself
and became like us. It is the Stations that highlight
just how far Jesus was willing to go to join us in all
things, even our suffering and death.
The Stations of the Cross reveal his betrayal,
convicted though innocent, scourged and publicly
humiliated, needing the help of others, bearing
insufferable physical and emotional pain, feeling
abandoned by God, dying naked and helpless. As we
imagine each step Jesus takes through the Stations is
it not true that he tastes the separation, suffering and
loss every person ultimately comes to know?
Jesus comes to know the expected sufferings we
will all know, so that we might come to know
what he knows. Our journey is trustworthy. It
bears repeating, our journey is trustworthy.
Although God’s love protects us from nothing,
it unexplainably sustains us in everything. A
friendship with Jesus enables us to face our expected
sufferings because we know we are never alone. The
One we place our trust in knows exactly what we are
going through, and thanks be to God, we know Love
is stronger than any suffering we might endure.

Patrick’s Church.

for the One Earth Film Festival and we encourage the
Old St. Pat’s community to attend and be a part of the

The True Cost is about the clothes we wear, the people
who make them and the impact the industry is having
on our world. The price of clothing has been decreasing
for decades, while the human and environmental
costs have grown dramatically. The True Cost is a
groundbreaking documentary film that pulls back the
curtain on the untold story and asks us to consider, who
really pays the price for our clothing?
Thank you!

Do you remember how exciting Easter morning was when you were a child? You were all dressed up in your new
spring outfit in search of a hidden basket full of goodies, right? I still remember trading my chocolates for jelly
beans with my sisters – what was I thinking!?
Connections would like to host that opportunity for families on the west side of Chicago, so we will be collecting
Easter Candy before and after all Masses on Sunday, March 20! We ask that you please consider donating:
Chocolate Bunnies (5 oz. size) • Chocolate Marshmallow Bunnies Jelly Beans

Distinguished Performers at Siamsa na nGael
Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in style. Siamsa na nGael will include extraordinary
performances by Celtic Instrumentalists John Williams, Kathleen Keen and Jackie
Moran among many others.
John Williams, Concertina
John Williams is one of the most highly regarded artists in Irish music today. From
concert halls to the silver screen, his talents as a performer and composer on piano,
guitar, accordion, concertina, and flute distinguish him as a vital contributor to the
music scenes of Ireland and his hometown Chicago.
Born and raised on the southwest side of Chicago, John spent summers working on
the southwest coast of Ireland in his father’s village of Doolin, County Clare. Like
Chicago, Doolin became a major musical crossroads. Engagements in the pubs of
Doolin and Lisdoonvarna soon led to performances in Galway, Cork, Dublin, Belfast,
Paris, Britanny, Zurich, Montreal, and New York City.
Outside of traditional Irish music, John has collaborated on productions with Gregory
Peck, Martin Sheen, Studs Terkel, Mavis Staples, The Goodman Theater, Oscar
winning director Sam Mendes, the London Symphony Orchestra, Irish Chamber
Ensemble, and many bluegrass icons. U.S. audiences recognize Williams from
performances on Mountain Stage, A Prairie Home Companion and The Grand Ol’
Opry as well as guest appearances with The Chieftains, Nickel Creek, Riverdance, and
Metropolis Symphony Orchestra.
On screen, John appears as a bandleader and composer in Dreamworks’ classic
Chicago thriller Road to Perdition. John’s music can be heard in movies The Traveler,
Out of Ireland, The Brothers McMullen and The Ride of Our Lives.

S iamsa
na n G ael
Kathleen Keene, fiddle
A vibrant force in traditional Irish music and beyond, Kathleen can ignite an audience
with her potent combination of extraordinary music and classic beauty.
A multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter and composer, Kathleen is one of the finest
exponents of the Irish community in Chicago. Her virtuosic tin whistle playing earned
her appearances in several hit movies, including “ The Road To Perdition” with Tom
Hanks and “Backdraft” with Ron Howard. She is also “one of the world’s finest Celtic
fiddlers” (Chicago Tribune), and is “a phenomenon with that instrument” (Rambles).
Her whistle and fiddle skills were also featured on Russell Crowe’s movie soundtrack
Cinderella Man.
A consummate performer, she has graced stages around the world with Titanic band,
Gaelic Storm. During her days in Gaelic Storm she made several TV appearances.
Kathleen began her professional career in The Drovers where recorded two critically
acclaimed albums. She currently fronts a twenty person ensemble called The Keane
Machine.
Kathleen’s musical style embraces her first love of Irish music and blends fluidly into
modern contexts. From movie soundtracks to commercials to Grammy nominated
albums, and from intimate acoustic performances to headlining world stages, Kathleen
is an exceptional musician who rises to the occasion on any platform.
Jackie Moran, Bodhran
The foundation of Irish traditional music is the pulse of its drum, the Bodhran. And
no other percussionist tills that ground better than Jackie Moran. Born in Tipperary,
ten-year-old Jackie and his family immigrated to Chicago where he quickly began
drumming with the best players in the Irish music scene. The young boy became the
man who is preeminent in Chicago Irish music.
A founding and driving force of such influential bands as The Drovers, Comas, Bua,
and The Otters, Jackie is a fixture in the studio and in concert settings, sympathetically
accompanying such many great artists.
Jackie’s talents have also led him to appear on stage with “Riverdance,” and to help
form and perform with the Trinity Irish Dance Company. And when Hollywood
needs a musician to play the part, and look it as well, you’ll see Jackie. “Backdraft”,
“Blink”, “Traveler” and “The Road to Perdition all saw fit to feature Jackie and his
Bodhrán.
Most recently, Jackie has been a member of Ensemble Galilei, which specializes
in Celtic traditional music, early music, and original music. In addition to their
recordings, the group tours extensively with a multi-media show, which often features
Neal Conan of NPR’s “Talk of the Nation” and actors Lily Knight and Bill Pullman.

Harmony, Hope & Healing is so blessed and thankful to be
singing and worshiping with you at Old St. Patrick’s today!
Many of you may know Harmony, Hope &
Healing as the choir that sings with Old St.
Pat’s once a month, but we wanted to share a
little more with you about who we are. HHH
is an organization that uses music to bring
emotional and spiritual support to homeless
and underserved women, children and men in
Chicago. This year, each time HHH visits and
worships with the Old St. Pat’s community, we
will share a story of hope and healing from one
of our ten program sites.
This month, we would like to share with
you, a story from Believe, of the Institute of
Women Today, which houses intact families in
transition. Believe Shelter is our newest program
site, we have been doing parent/child music
classes with the families of Believe since October
of 2015. One family in particular, always show
up to our music class -- Stella and Kurt along
with their children. After Stella lost her job and
Kurt’s income was not enough to provide for the
family of six, they moved to Believe to regroup
and find temporary housing until they could
get back on their feet. Since participating in our
music program, they have learned new ways
of working together not only as a family but as
a community through songs and percussion
playing. Sonia, their youngest, really loves
when we end class with Bambelela (Never Give
Up) and her mother even mentioned that she
randomly sings it when we are not there. As
for Grace, the middle child, her favorites are
the ABC Rap, Peace Prayer and especially One
Day when we sang the song at the IWT Holiday
Celebration and Community Concert last year.
Recently, Stella and Kurt received housing and
hopefully will be moving this month. We wish
the family love and happiness as they take on the
beautiful opportunities that await them!

Believe Shelter or any of the HHH program
sites, please visit our website, www.

Lent, Liturgy, and Life
“Sir,” the gardener said to the owner of the orchard, “leave this fig tree for one more year,
and I shall cultivate the ground around it and fertilize it; it may bear fruit in the future.
If not, then you can cut it down.” Luke 13:8-9
14
Fertilizing the Fig Tree
Fasting from Our Favorite Word
What a powerful parable we proclaim and practice
this week! I hear God as the owner of the orchard,
and Jesus as the gardener. We—the church, both the
big universal Church and this local church of Old St.
Pat’s—are the fig tree. On another level, the orchard
is the church, and each of us individually is a fig tree
in that orchard. (Parables work that way—yielding
many layers of meaning all at once.) Sometimes the
tree yields figs abundantly. Sometimes the tree seems
dead, branches of it at least unable to bud or blossom.
Lent, the Church’s Spring, is the time for fertilizing
and pruning. Walking with and supporting AJ,
Stephanie, Joanne, Tracey, Angela, Matthew, Alycia,
Jennifer, and Taylor (our Elect, whom Archbishop
Cupich recognized last week as chosen by God) as
they are gestating toward being born again of water
and the Holy Spirit is how we fertilize the fig tree.
And they become the very proof of new life that the
orchard owner seeks: full-on nutritious figs who, from
Christ’s hand, will feed those in this world hungering
for love and joy. Supporting and being encouraged
by the strong and fresh faith of the 16 Christians
baptized in other traditions who are being called
to embrace the Catholic way, together with the 9
Catholics being confirmed, is how we fertilize the fig
tree, revitalize those branches.
You might notice that we don’t sing “Alleluia” during
Lent. Instead, to greet the gospel we sing “Praise to
you, Lord Jesus Christ, king of endless glory!” It’s a
longstanding tradition in Western churches to fast
from singing our most potent and ancient prayer
word during the Forty Days. The late Peter Mazar
taught that we give up our joyful, soulful “Alleluias” in
Lent because the alienation and disorientation that we
stare down in our annual spiritual boot camp evokes
ancient Israel’s experience of exile and oppression in
Babylon. Psalm 137 captures the mood:
Pruning Dead Wood
And think of the pruning away of dead habits and
unproductive thoughts these 34 wonderful folks are
doing! Those of us already baptized, confirmed and
nourished by Christ’s body and blood know all too
well our own dead parts, our ossified hearts, our
wooden souls. We know too well how this church
that we are and love becomes too often brittle dead
wood in a world aching for shade and fruit. So there’s
pruning in prayer, fasting, and sharing what we have
with those in need. There’s pruning in the Sacrament
of Penance, celebrated this Wednesday at 7 PM.
There’s pruning and fertilizing in taking up anew the
works of mercy and offering those up each week with
the bread and wine of our dying and living. What a
fertile fig tree we’ll become Easter!
By the way, the barren branches in the urns of either
side of the statute of St. Patrick are those of the curly
willow tree. “On the willows there, we hung up our
harps.” The story doesn’t end there. We’ll take up
those harps again. We only fast so we can feast!
By the rivers of Babylon—
there we sat down and there we wept
when we remembered Zion.
On the willows there
we hung up our harps.
For there our captors
asked us for songs,
and our tormentors asked for mirth, saying,
‘Sing us one of the songs of Zion!’
How could we sing the Lord’s song
in a foreign land? -Psalm 137:1-4
Midnight Snack
When we “return from exile” and “come home
together,” huddled together in the dark of Easter’s Eve
to hear the story of creation, loss, and redemption,
we’ll take up the Alleluia again to greet the good news
of resurrection. We’ll sing it at the Easter Vigil for
the first time in six weeks, and then for fifty days to
follow. And it will sound all the better to our ears and
taste all the better of our lips for having fasted from it.
Make plans now to come and participate in the great
Easter Vigil, Saturday, March 27 beginning at 8 p.m.
It’s our most beautiful liturgy of the year.

to take them in, to let them get to you,
to let them get In To You.
Ironically, taking in mercy is a risk and renders us vulnerable. In gathering together this evening we
will be challenged and invited and cajoled to risk mercy, to be nourished by the feast of mercy.
In addition to reflections by Terry Nelson-Johnson, resident theologian at Old St. Pat’s, our time
together this evening will include the opportunity to celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
*Please join us for some light refreshments in the church Hall at the end of each evening.

This year at Old St. Patrick’s, Holy Thursday Evening will involve three movements:
6:00 p.m. | Holy Thursday Dinner
at Francis Xavier Warde School
We launch into this most sacred three days of our church year by gathering around tables to enjoy meals together. Join us for a
Holy Thursday Dinner with the Old St. Pat’s community. We will gather to be nourished by a delicious meal, by the presence of
community, and by some music and reflection that will help us launch into this most sacred three days of our church year, the
Tridduum. Reservations must be made online. Please let us know who you would like to be seated with*.
*There is a limit of 10 guests at each table.
8:00 p.m. | Mass of the Lord’s Supper
Old St. Patrick’s Church & Church Hall
All are invited to gather and enter into the one Mass celebrated by members of the Catholic and Christian communities around
the world on this sacred night. St. John’s account of the Last Supper is proclaimed, and the sacred rite of foot washing is
celebrated as we are reminded of Christ’s profound invitation to compassionately care for “the other” — our brother, our sister
— in our midst.
9:30 p.m. | Night Watch
As a tradition in Catholic Churches across the world on this night, Old St. Patrick’s Church will be open for prayer and
meditation immediately following the 8 p.m. liturgy and continuing until midnight.
Reservations for dinner must be made online in advance by visiting www.signmeup.com/113143.
The cost of the dinner will be $35.00.
If you would like to participate, but $35.00 would be too much of a hardship, please contact
Keara Ette at KearaC@oldstpats.org.

What Are You Reading this Lent?
Gathered by Bob Kolatorowicz
In addition to the traditional Lenten practices of prayer, fasting and almsgiving; it’s not unusual
for some of us to choose to do some spiritual reading during the Lenten season. Always grateful for
a good recommendation and just plain curious about what other folks are reading, I asked some
members and friends of Old St. Pat’s, “What are you reading this Lent?”

OSP G reen T eam
Welcome to the Old St. Pat’s Green Team Corner!
Inspired by the message of Pope Francis in his groundbreaking encyclical Laudato Si, on Care for Our
Common Home, a group of parishioners at Old St. Pat’s decided to come together and form a Green
Team. Our group began taking shape in the summer of 2015 as one of Old St. Pat’s Social Justice
Initiatives. Each month on the fourth Sunday of the month, we will
• share ways to incorporate sustainability into your personal and work lives’
• describe steps Old St. Pat’s is taking to become more energy efficient and reduce waste;
• talk about local environmental events where you can learn about what others are doing to care for
the earth.
Mission of Old St. Pat’s Green Team
We celebrate the beauty of our planet, our common home and a gift from God. Our faith tells us that
because God is with us, we can change course and move towards an ecological conversion.
• We educate ourselves and our community about environmental issues.
• We continually seek ways to reduce our use of energy and material goods in our lives, our parish,
and our community, and thus to lessen the environmental burden on the poor.
• We network with Green partners and make choices to support sustainable businesses.
• We advocate and take action for sustainable land use, clean air and clean water policies in our city,
our state, and our country.
Coming to Old St. Pat’s
One Earth Film Festival is taking place at a variety
of locations throughout the Chicago Area March
4-6. This festival features 35 thought provoking films
dealing with environmental issues that will educate
and inspire you. Each screening is followed by an
interactive discussion session that may include Q&A
with the filmmakers, local experts, and opportunities
for action. Screenings are free, with a $5 suggested
donation. Old St. Pat’s is showing The True Cost at
11:00 am on Saturday March 5 in St. Francis Xavier
Warde School, 120 S Des Plaines. The True Cost
is a documentary about the clothes we wear, the
people who make them, and the impact the garment
industry is having on our world. It asks us to
consider the question: who really pays the price for
our clothing.

JOIN THE CROSSROADS RUNNERS AT THE SHAMROCK SHUFFLE!
Get in shape, lace up and join the Crossroads Runners at the 2016 Bank of America Shamrock Shuffle 8k

Chicago Marathon Coach Brendan will help you cross the finish line.
Register for the Shamrock Shuffle at: https://register.shamrockshuffle.com
COACH BRENDAN COURNANE’S TIPS FOR GETTING STARTED:
With the recent onset of colder temperatures and intermittent snowfall, many of you may be doing most of
your running and run-walking indoors on a treadmill. This is a good way to avoid the cold weather. When
returning to the outdoors, you may find running outdoors seems so much more difficult and slower than
treadmill running.
Running on a treadmill takes less effort for the athlete. The belt moves at the pace set by the runner and the
runner lifts his/her legs. In contrast, when running outdoors, there is friction between the runner’s feet and
the ground; the runner propels his/her body forward against the forces of gravity; and there are the natural
elements of heat, humidity, wind and related features of nature.

Chicago Food Depository...Cook County’s Food Bank...network
serves has increased in recent years, but the GCFD continues to
fight hunger. It is getting harder and harder for families to make
ends meet, and many people are finding themselves skipping
meals or cutting back on the quality or quantity of food they
purchase for themselves and their families.
Hunger Never Takes a Holiday
You, too, are invited to join our OSP community in helping
to stamp out hunger in Cook County. Even if you have never
worked at the GCFD, you are urged to unite in our joint Old

Filmmaker’s View on North
Lawndale
Main Lounge of the Union League Club
When the Christian Church calls us again this Lent
to participate in a 40 period of prayer, fasting and
generosity, it seems that fewer people are listening to
that call. Church attendance continues to decline and
the influence of Churches seems to be waning.
To many it appears that the Goo d Friday experience of
suffering and death trumps the hope and fullness of life
proclaimed at Easter.
Reverend Shannon Kerschner, pastor of one of the most
significant Churches in Chicago, Fourth Church, will
reveal to us in the middle of Lent 2016 the “resurrection
moments” she perceives in the Christian community
today. She is Pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian
Church of Chicago, a vibrant and diverse worshiping
community of more than 5,000 members. A presence
in the city of Chicago since 1871, this downtown
congregation is committed to serving the needs of the
community, both locally and globally, a commitment
that can be seen in its many well-regarded outreach
programs, most notably its nonprofit organization,
Chicago Lights.
Please MAKE YOUR RESERVATION AND PAY ONLINE
by FRIDAY, February 26th. A new person will be
taking reservations this month so please give all the
details; the church group to sit you with and dietary
requirements in the comments section.
The lunch fee is $35 for members and $40 for guests.
Join the OSP table to take advantage of the special
member price. Because of contractual arrangements
with the Union League Club, once your reservation is
made, your lunch fee is required, even if you are unable
to attend. There is a dress code at the Union League
Club: business casual for men and women, which
includes a shirt with a collar for men and no denim or
tennis shoes.

A Tale of Two Cities: North Lawndale Chicago is a
must see. This short film (3:57 minute) about the North
Lawndale neighborhood was produced by a young
artist from Free Spirit Media based in North Lawndale.
In a time that Chicago is struggling with its
identity, talented young adult filmmakers highlight
misconceptions about Chicago’s North Lawndale
neighborhood, helping viewers to un-learn stereotypes
and see beauty and realness on Chicago’s West Side.
Free Spirit Media constantly contributes to Chicago’s
crucial civic conversations through compelling
solutions-journalism from Real Chi Youth, Free Spirit
Media’’s advanced journalism program. This group
has also reported on policing in Chicago and recent
political elections.
We salute to Free Spirit Media, its creative young
filmmakers and producers and the dedicated staff that
works with them to develop their skills in the media
industry.

“A Faith Filled Embrace of
Change”
with Al Gustafson
The only constant in life? You know the answer…change. What you may not know
is that the ability to manage the anxiety that change creates in our lives is what
separates people who eventually stop growing from those who continue to grow in
faith, hope and love throughout their lives.
The very foundation of our Christian faith is change…we call it the Paschal Mystery.
Join us for a conversation about a faith filled embrace of change. We will begin by
exploring how the big changes in life, like death of loved one, job loss, divorce or
a health crisis, impact us…coming to better understand the peril and the promise
of change. We will conclude with Jesus, and how we might live into the mystery of
change through him, with him and in him.
Al Gustafson is a spiritual director and retreat leader. He has been a staff member
at Old St. Patrick’s Church, Chicago since 1994 and is the former Director of the
Crossroads Center for Faith & Work. He is a founder and past president of the
Career Transitions Center of Chicago where he continues to be involved. He is a
co-leader of an annual 38-week retreat on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius at St.
Margaret Mary Church in Naperville.

“Radical Grace”
Film Screening and Discussion
Radical Grace follows three fearless nuns who risk their place in the Catholic Church
to follow another higher calling: social justice.
The story features: Simone Campbell, SSS – Nuns on the Bus; Chris Schenk, CSJ –
Future Church; and Jean Hughes, OP, who worked with the marginalized in Chicago
until her death last year.
When the Vatican investigates and reprimands the sisters – citing their “radical
feminism”– they become the spiritual and symbolic center of a struggle for the future
of the Catholic Church. The women refuse to back down and ultimately win the
hearts of the new pope and Catholics worldwide.
From their cross-country Nuns on the Bus tour, to serving those on the margins,
to a continued struggle for Catholic women’s religious equality, these sisters are
transforming American politics — and the Church itself.
Chris Schenk, CSJ will join us for discussion and sharing following the film.

Jesus said to them in reply, “Do you think that because these Galileans suffered in this way they were greater sinners than all other Galileans? By
no means! But I tell you, if you do not repent, you will all perish as they did!” - Lk 13:2-3

St. Agnes of
Bohemia
(1205-1282)
Agnes had no children
of her own but was certainly life-giving
for all who knew her.
Agnes was the daughter of Queen
Constance and King Ottokar I of
Bohemia. At the age of three, she was
betrothed to the Duke of Silesia, who died
three years later. As she grew up, she
decided she wanted to enter the religious
life.
After declining marriages to King Henry
VII of Germany and Henry III of England,
Agnes was faced with a proposal from
Frederick II, the Holy Roman Emperor.
She appealed to Pope Gregory IX for
help. The pope was persuasive; Frederick
magnanimously said that he could not be
offended if Agnes preferred the King of
Heaven to him.
After Agnes built a hospital for the
poor and a residence for the friars, she
financed the construction of a Poor Clare
monastery in Prague. In 1236, she and
seven other noblewomen entered this
monastery. St. Clare sent five sisters from
San Damiano to join them, and wrote
Agnes four letters advising her on the
beauty of her vocation and her duties as
abbess.
Agnes became known for prayer,
obedience and mortification. Papal
pressure forced her to accept her election
as abbess; nevertheless, the title she
preferred was “senior sister.” Her position
did not prevent her from cooking for the
other sisters and mending the clothes
of lepers. The sisters found her kind but
very strict regarding the observance of
poverty; she declined her royal brother’s
offer to set up an endowment for the
monastery.
Devotion to Agnes arose soon after
her death on March 6, 1282. She was
canonized in 1989.
Prayer Requests: Names of the sick or recently deceased are listed for one week in the prayers of
the faithful and two subsequent weeks in the bulletin. Please call Bernadette Gibson at 312.798.2389
to add a name to the list.
