Important Changes in Meeting
Room Scheduling
Gesu Parish is moving toward using an online real time
calendar and an electronic form to request meeting spaces.
These will be available at www.churchofthegesu.org very
soon. There will no longer be a “Red Book” to sign out
meeting rooms.
If you would like to schedule a meeting space before
the online request form is available, please stop by the
Parish Office and complete a Request for Meeting space
form. Further information will be provided as we roll out
the new procedures.

Consider Joining the Music Ministry
Just as school starts to resume, the Music Ministry begins
rehearsing for the choral year. As we approach that time,
please consider becoming a part of our parish choir. All
levels of music backgrounds are welcome and reading
music is not necessary; just a love for music and choral
singing. The choir rehearses every Wednesday from 7:309:00 pm from September through Pentecost. Members sing
at either the 9:00 or 10:30 liturgies on Sunday mornings.
In addition to these times, the choir prepares for special
liturgies of the Christmas Season, Holy Week and Easter.
This year, the choir will also be preparing for the
installation liturgy for our new pastor. This is a ministry
imperative to the life of our liturgy and continues the long
tradition of music in the Catholic Church. Please email
Mark Ehrbar at mehrbar@churchofthegesu.org or call
(216) 932-0617 if you would like to sign up or discuss this
ministry at greater length.
Would You Like to be a Sacristan?
We are in need of someone (or someones) to serve
as sacristan at some of our weekend liturgies. If you, or
perhaps your family, would like to assist us, please contact
Sister Kathleen at the parish office at (216) 932-0617. It
does not take much time before and after Mass, and we
give great training!
Contact the Worship Commission

“When Jesus therefore saw His mother and the disciple

“Behold thy Mother,” and from that hour the Disciple took
her into his home.
The Legion of Mary is a worldwide organization of Catholic

Early Childhood Education
Please register now for the fall session of the Gesu
Early Childhood Programs Happy Together and TOPS
(Time Out for Parents).
Happy Together is a parent and child class with a playgroup like setting. It offers opportunities in free play, art, music,
and early socialization experiences. This class is offered on
Monday mornings from 10:00-11:00 am for children ages
16 – 30 months. Minimum class size is five children,
maximum is twelve. The tuition is $160 for parishioners of
Gesu and St. Dominic and $180 for nonparishioners for
the twelve-week session.
TOPS (Time Out for Parents) is a two-hour drop-off
“pre-preschool” class for children ages two and three.
Opportunities for free play, music, movement, art, outside
play, and early socialization with peers are offered. Parents
are obligated to “parent help” during one class throughout
the twelve-week session. This class is offered Tuesday
through Friday (choose one or two days) from 8:45-11:15 am.
Minimum class size is six children, maximum is twelve.
Tuition is $300 for parishioners of Gesu and St. Dominic
and $350 for nonparishioners for the twelve-week session.
The children do not need to be toilet trained.
Both classes take place in our fabulous, toy filled room in
the lower level of Gesu School. TOPS is a great introduction
to preschool! If you are interested in registering your child
for either program, forms are located in the Gesu Rectory
and outside the infant/toddler room in the back of Gesu
Church. Just pick up a form and send it in with either half
or all of the tuition. Classes begin in mid-September and

In the Jesuit Tradition
The Feast of the Assumption evokes the
devotion held for our Blessed Mother by
members of the Society of Jesus. A special
connection may have taken shape when,
while recovering from battle injuries, Ignatius
had thoughts he believed were sent from God. One night he
is said to have clearly seen an image of Our Lady holding
the Child Jesus, confirming his inclination away from secular
toward spiritual things. On March 25, 1522, the Annunciation,
Ignatius entered the monastery Santa Maria de Montserrat
and laid down his sword and military garments at the altar
of Mary. On August 15, 1534, Feast of the Assumption,
Ignatius and his six companions took solemn vows of their
lifelong work. Our Gesu Pastoral Center is named for the
patroness of the Society of Jesus, Madonna Della Strada.
The title refers to an image of the Blessed Virgin Mary
which is enshrined at the Church of the Gesu in Rome,
mother church of the Society of Jesus.

Beatitudes for People with Special Needs
Blessed are you who take time to listen to difficult speech,
for you help us to know that if we persevere we can be
understood.
Blessed are you who walk with us in public places, and
ignore the stares of strangers, for in your friendship we feel
good to be ourselves.
Blessed are you who never bid us to “hurry up” and, more
blessed, you who do not snatch our tasks from our hands
to do them for us, for often we need time rather than help.
Blessed are you who stand beside us as we enter new
and untried ventures, for our unsuredness will be outweighed by the times when we surprise ourselves and you.
Blessed are you who ask for our help and realize our
giftedness for our greatest need is to be needed.
Blessed are you who help us with the graciousness of
Christ, for often we need the help we cannot ask for.
Blessed are you when, by all things, you assure us that
what makes us individuals is not our particular disability or
difficulty but our beautiful God-given personhood which no
handicapping condition can confine.
Rejoice and be exceedingly glad for your understanding
and love have opened doors for us to enjoy life to its fullest
and you have helped us believe in ourselves as valued
and gifted people.
