The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time ♦ August 11, 2013

Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
MARY:
The Christian Most United to Christ
The Solemnity of the Assumption celebrates a dogma of
the Roman Catholic Church. Defined by Pope Pius XII on
November 1, 1950, the
dogma presents Mary’s
ultimate significance. She
is the “Immaculate” one
given a singular privilege,
she was preserved from
Original Sin and the corruption of the tomb. Mary
is the first Redeemed and
the first to participate
fully in the Resurrection
and Glory of her Divine
Son. The origin of the
celebration of Mary’s
Assumption can be traced
to the Council of Ephesus
(431). There she was acknowledged as the “Theotokos,”
the Mother of God. In Jerusalem, an ancient Liturgy commemorates her “falling asleep” or death. The original Greek
word metastasis translates as “passover.” In the Eastern and
Western Churches, Mary’s “passing over” celebrates her
uniqueness and her role as an exemplar for all Christians. In
the Preface for the Mass of the Assumption, we hear:
For today the Virgin Mother of God was assumed into
heaven as the beginning and image of your Church’s coming
to perfection and a sign of sure hope and comfort to your
pilgrim people . . .
Theologian Karl Rahner calls Mary
The perfect achievement and work of redemption . . . as
Mother of God and consequently as the perfect type or
representative of redemption in its very essence.
In this Mystery, as in all mysteries, Christ is the one who
acts, redeems, and sanctifies. Grace is paramount. As Mary
is honored, faithful believers (the Church) will be honored.
A venerable and very beautiful title given the Blessed Virgin
is “Help of Christians.” A popular misconception is that
honoring Mary is an erroneously CATHOLIC thing.
Perhaps is part of the “black legend” that sees honor to
Mary as “Mariolatry.” G. K. Chesterton describes the old
fashioned Protestant panic:
August 11, 2013
that mad vigilance that watches for the first faint signs of the
cult of Mary as for spots of a plague; that apparently presumes her to be perpetually and secretly encroaching upon
the prerogatives of Christ; that logically infers that a mere
glimpse of the blue robe the presence of the Scarlet
Woman . . .
It has always been a pleasant surprise, then an inspiration,
when I discover the Mother of God being honored by
non-Catholics. Muslims respect Mary and bless her name as
they do Jesus. But I have been most edified when I visit
Orthodox and Protestant Churches where Mary is specially
revered.
I have a long association with the Orthodox and Episcopal
Churches. In both, images of Mary plan an important part in
the prayer life of a congregation. When I was a pilgrim to
the Anglican and Catholic Shrines of Our Lady of
Walsingham, I instinctively (and inaccurately) felt that the
Anglican Shrine looked more “Catholic.” The real issue was
WHO worshipped there and how. Both were Christian.
On a visit to Hong Kong, I stopped at an inculturated
Lutheran Chapel, Tao Fang Shan. Founded by a Norwegian
Lutheran Pastor many years ago, the Church was both
Christian and Chinese. Nearby, I had an interesting dialogue
with staff members of Areopagus, a magazine of interreligious interest. The staff was mostly Lutheran. Before lunch,
I was invited to Noon prayer in a lovely chapel. We used the
Taizé prayer book. Icons of Our Lord and the Blessed
Virgin were prominent.
Praying with the Areopagus staff, recalled a 1978 experience
at Taizé itself. The monks of Taizé are an ecumenical community. Founded by Protestants, Taizé is like an island with
two bridges - - one Catholic, the other Protestant. The overwhelming sense of the place is one of reconciliation and harmony. In a small chapel, a group of young people prayed the
“Jesus Prayer.” In the main chapel, there was a huge icon of
Our Lady of Vladimir. A garland of Flowers was draped
above the icon. Candles were lit before it. Instantly, I felt at
home.
No, Mary is not for Catholics alone. Her place in Sacred
Scripture - - in the life of Christ - - makes her accessible to
Christians everywhere. Mary is not an obstacle to Christian
unity. She is the Christian most united in Christ. In Eastern
iconography and Biblical spirituality, Mary shows us the
Way!

MISSION APPEAL TODAY
Today we welcome Fr. Christsanth Mugasha, A.J.,
who is making a mission appeal on behalf of the
Evangelizing Sisters of Mary, a missionary African
congregation. Our generosity in the second
collection and our prayers connect us in a special
way to the missionary work of the Church and are
blessings that the Evangelizing Sisters of Mary
greatly appreciate. Thank you!
Introducing Give Central
Over the next few weeks we’re going to share information about another method of “giving” to St. Isaac Jogues – electronic contributions. Give Central.org was custom-designed for schools, churches and agencies of the Archdiocese of Chicago to enable on-line
donations in a safe & secure environment. The program will allow St. Isaac Jogues to accept contributions from your checking accounts and/or credit cards electronically transferred from your financial institution to our parish checking account, eliminating
PAPER!
You might ask, why electronic giving? Here’s a few top reasons.
1. Scripture instructs ministers to “collect” offerings and people have always been taught to “give from what they had.” (2 Corinthians 8:8-18) Over time, we’ve all seen “collection baskets” ranging in size from baskets large enough to accept food donations to the smaller baskets we use today. Think of electronic giving as “another basket” for those who want to give, but want
an automated method of donating.
2. Many people today carry little cash or even use checking accounts! Some people only use “cards” - - debit cards & credit cards
and conduct their financial business “on-line.” Technology has changed our habits and ways of life. If we limit our options, those
who don’t have a check with them may only contribute whatever cash they have in their pockets, if at all.
3. Statistically speaking, electronic giving provides an option for those who want to contribute – even when they can’t be present.
For example: only 23% of parishioners regularly attend mass, 25%-30% of people who regularly attend mass are absent each
weekend, and another 10% - 15% of people will be in the building, serving in other ways, but not attending mass.
4. Conducting electronic financial transactions is a growing trend that we must respond to in a positive, supportive and appropriate
way. Studies have shown that 96% of donors under age 30 and 88% of donors under age 50 prefer to give electronically and
60% of donors handle financial transactions on-line. Many of our young only use their cell phones to conduct business. We need
a way to reach donors of all ages.
5. Electronic giving allows an automated way to collect for a variety of things beyond the Sunday collection. We could offer electronic payment for other functions & fundraisers like religious education tuition, silent auctions, raffle ticket purchases - - the
possibilities are limitless.
6. Another statistic indicates that nearly 40% of churches have seen a double-digit decline in contributions over the past few years.
While St. Isaac Jogues hasn’t experienced a double-digit drop, our collections are down. Over 150 Archdiocesan organizations
are now using Give Central. Most have seen sustained increases of 8% - 30% in their collections! Now is the time we need
to encourage God’s word on generosity and create as many ways as possible for faithful givers to do God’s work.
You might recall, we conducted a survey after Mass one Sunday last year to determine your interest in electronic giving. While the
response was small, 50% indicated that they would be interested. After research and discussion, it’s time. We’re planning to launch
electronic giving in the Fall. Watch the bulletin for more information.

The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA)
is a process of prayer, reflection, study and discussion for people who are seeking, or desiring
to deep, a relationship with Jesus Christ and the
Catholic Church. If you, or someone you know,
have never been baptized, are a baptized
Christian but want to learn how the Catholic
Church lives it’s life in Christ, or are a baptized
Catholic but have not received Confirmation and
First Communion, we invite you to consider
joining the RCIA and enjoy the support and encouragement of Catholics who want to support
you, and learn from you, as we walk together
with the Lord. An information evening will be
held on Thursday, August 22nd, at 7 p.m. If you,
or someone you know would like to attend, or if
you would like further information, please call
Dee Stanton, 847/966-1180. Your inquiry does
not commit you to join!
The SIJ Teen Group thanks everyone for all the
school supplies and donations that you gave last
weekend! Twelve youth from our parish, K – High
School, benefited from your generosity as well as
the children of our Sharing Parish Maternity BVM.
Two checks, each in the amount of $224. 73, was
also given to Maternity BVM School and Maternity
BVM Parish (for the children in the RE Program).
Patrick Landry, the new school principal, and
Maricel Acevedo, the Religious Education Coordinator, say “thank you so much” and that there
will be lots of excitement over the gifts. We really
appreciate your support of this project and of the
Teen Group! It means a lot to us!

FR. BILL
BRINKER
SCHOLARSHIP
Fr. William (Bill) Brinker
was one of the founding
fathers of Notre Dame High School, teaching for over 40
years! He was their first Athletic Director and designed
the Letterman’s jacket that is still worn today.
The 2013-2014 Religious Educa on Program for
Grades 1 through Confirma on Year II begins on
Monday, August 26, at 6:30 p.m.! RE Kindergarten
Classes begin on September 8th. Le ers with class
assignments will be mailed out early this week. If
you have not had a chance to register, please call
the RE Office, 847/966-1180, to set up a me to
come in and fill out registra on forms.
Kindergarten classes meet on Sundays, 10:3011:30 a.m. and Grs. 1 – Confirma on Year II meet
on Mondays, 6:45-8:00 p.m. Families are strongly
encouraged to involve their children each year as
no one year suffices in providing what is important
for a strong faith founda on. Students preparing
for sacraments must a end for the two immediate
years prior to receiving each sacrament. If families
have children with special needs or who have not
received their sacraments, we would be happy to
meet with you and discuss op ons. There is tui on
along with applicable book and sacrament fees.
Families with financial concerns are encouraged to
talk with us as no child is denied religious educaon because of finances. All are welcome!

Please remember to read and bring materials sent
to you in the mail. If you cannot a end, please call
the RE Office, 847/966-1180, by August 15th.
But we know Fr. Bill Brinker as one of “our” presiders as
well. Before we had a church building, Fr. Brinker served
St. Isaac Jogues at Notre Dame High School for over 50
years, presiding at masses, baptizing, helping with confirmations, assisting with Religious Education, hearing
confessions and much more. Later, he continued to
serve St. Isaac Jogues here in our church.
When Fr. Brinker passed away, he left a sum of money to
be used for Scholarship. Notre Dame thought it would be
appropriate to endow his scholarship at the $25,000
level. By doing this, Fr. Brinker’s legacy will live on in perpetuity. In order to accomplish this goal, Notre Dame
asked for our help in raising an additional $5000.
As we approach the anniversary of Fr. William Brinker’s
passing, we have been given the opportunity to help carry on his love of education. St. Isaac Jogues will take a
special collection the weekend of August 24-25 in
Fr. Brinker’s memory. We will also contribute $1000
from the Parish. For those of you who knew Fr. Bill, you
know he would really appreciate the help, but would never
ask for it.
If you can’t be here and want to contribute, please drop
your donation in the collection or at the rectory marked
“Fr. Bill Brinker Scholarship.” Let’s help Notre Dame carry on Fr. Brinker’s good works.

Who is my neighbor?
“The Prophet Muhammad”
“In the sixth century, although there were Jews and Christians in the
area of Mecca in modern day Saudi Arabia, most of the inhabitants
worshipped many gods. Into that culture Muhammad was born in the
year 570 CE. For Muslims Muhammad is the last ‘prophet’ and
‘messenger’ of God in a long line of prophets familiar to Jews and
Christians, including Abraham, Moses and Jesus.
“Islamic traditions tell of some of the early signs of Muhammad’s
authority and mission. His birth was foretold with glad tidings. Although
he was orphaned at age seven, he grew up to be a man seen by his
tribal society as a good steward and wise arbiter. He also had friends in
the Christian community.
“Muslims believe that God’s final message was revealed to Muhammad in this way: at age forty, troubled by unusual dreams and visions,
he sought solitude in a spiritual retreat in a cave near Mecca. Here he
heard the voice of an angel identified as Gabriel who told him, ‘Recite’.
Muhammad listened and kept the words he heard and ‘recited’ them to
others. This recitation became the Islamic scripture known as the
Qur’an.
“Muhammad’s words and deeds are also a very important guide for
Muslims and they are recorded in the Hadith, a body of literature second only to the Qur’an in importance.”

TREASURES FROM
OUR TRADITION
In recent weeks, we have reviewed how the Churches of
East and West have enriched one another, and this Thursday’s solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin
Mary was born in the Eastern Church. It is a gift from the
ancient Church of Jerusalem, a commemoration of the death
of Mary, and a feast charged with a deep sense of the Resurrection. Mary, the first disciple, is the first to share fully in
Christ’s victory over death. In the tradition of the East, today is the “Dormition of the Theotokos,” or the “Falling
Asleep of the God bearer.” There is no shadow of death or
gloom in the theology, since this is seen as a transformation
of Mary’s life into a heavenly and immortal existence. There
is a sense in the tradition that she who made earth heavenly
and exalted the human race by her faithfulness is glorified
today.
A persistent legend among Orthodox Christians tells how all
the disciples, except Thomas, who was preaching in India,
were present at Mary’s death and burial, and sat by the tomb
for three days. On the third day, Thomas saw Mary’s body
rising to heaven. She greeted him as “my friend,” and he
was escorted by angels to proclaim her assumption to the
others, who then realized her tomb was empty. Thus Thomas, the one who expressed doubt at the resurrection of
Christ, received a gift from Mary: the chance to proclaim
resurrection faith to the disciples.
