A A PRAYER FOR CATECHISTSPRAYER FOR CATECHISTS O GOD, OUR HEAVENLY FATHER, you have given us the gift of these catechists to be heralds of the Gospel to our parish family. We lift them up to you in thanksgiving and inter-cede for them concerning their hopes and needs. May we be attentive to the presence of your Word in them, a Word that lifts up and affirms, calls forth and challenges, is compas-sionate and consoles. WE PRAY THAT OUR PARISH FAMILY WILL ALWAYS BE BLESSED with those who have re-sponded to the call to share in Christ’s prophetic mission as catechists. May we too be open to the universal call to service that Christ addresses to all of his disciples, contribut-ing our gifts to the communion of faith, the Church. We ask this in Jesus’ name. AMEN.

Parish Religious Education Program… WE NEED YOUR HELP! We currently have an urgent need for: Children’s Liturgy of the Word Instructor Instructors lead children in a lesson at 10 AM Mass Classroom Aide — Mondays, 4:30-6 PM Fifth Grade Catechist — Mondays, 7-8:30 PM Hall Monitors — both Monday sessions Our Religious Education Program will resume its ses-sions this Monday, Sept. 17. We are in good shape for staffing our Religious Education Program — with the exception of these recent needs. Hall Monitors can be high school aged teens in need of service hours. If your heart is moving you to assist us in meeting these pro-gram needs call the RE office at 708-403-0137. Last week I “worked” the phone lines, by calling parish families who were part of our program last year, but who have not re-registered for our program this year. We are in the era of “St. Last Minute”, but I think it is important that people know that we miss them if they are not part of our religious formation this year. It was also enlightening to speak with the parents. One family had moved and did not let us know, so our mailings were going astray. Others changed parishes due to their child’s after-school activity demands. And many were just getting around to registering. Still I hope they appre-ciate that we would miss their children if they were not part of our program this coming year.

This is Catechetical Weekend... This weekend we will bless all catechists, and Reli-gious Education staff at all Masses during the weekend before they begin their new year. All of these generous men and women help pass on the faith, our faith’s teachings, and help form people as they prepare to re-ceive the sacraments. Without these catechists gener-ous work, we could not function well as a parish in pass-ing on the gift of our faith. We thank them for their work, and ask God to bless them in the coming year.

RCIA Sessions Begin This Thursday... Each year our parishioners have helped spread the word about our three-parish [St. Elizabeth Seton, St. George, and St. Stephen Parishes] combined R.C.I.A. [Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults] Program. The pro-gram begins this Thursday, Sept.20, at 7:00 PM, at St. Stephen Parish in Tinley Park. It will continue there for seven sessions until the Thursday after Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 29, when it will move to St. Elizabeth Seton Parish for eight sessions. On February 21st, the final eight sessions will continue at St. George Parish. We meet nearly every week, with breaks for Christmas, Valentine’s Day, etc. The adults are received into our Church at the Easter Vigil, on Saturday, April 20, 2019. Please let people know about this program, and have them contact me at the parish office [708-403-0101] to register. There is no charge for this program.

Women’s Club… Our Women’s Club will meet for their first meeting in the new “academic year” on Tuesday, Sept. 18. They are featuring a Comedy Night. Doors open at 6:30 PM. This sounds like a great way to start off the new year.

Blessing of All School Teachers… To celebrate the beginning of the academic year, at all Masses next weekend we will bless all school teach-ers and school staff members. Many people in our par-ish community are part of the academic world, and are part of a challenging vocation of educating the next gen-eration. We wish them all God’s blessing.

Finance Council… Two weeks ago our Finance Council met and re-viewed the “early returns” of the Financial Report for the period of July 1, 2017-June 30, 2018. Happily we were in “the black” by about $62,000. And we paid down the church mortgage more than $400,000. Thank you for your ongoing support and good stewardship. A full re-port will be issued in November.

Looking Ahead...! Bishop Ron Hicks will be ordained a bishop at Holy Name Cathedral on Monday, Sept. 17, at 2 PM. Please keep him in your prayers. Our Religious Education program begins on Mon-day, Sept. 17, at 4:30 and 7 PM in the CJB School. Our Women’s Club will hold their first meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 18, at 7 PM, in the McBrady Center. The first session for our joint three-parish R.C.I.A. Program will be held on Thursday, Sept. 20, at 7 PM, at St. Stephen Deacon and Martyr Church in Tinley Park. Our Parish Council will meet on Thursday, Sept. 20 in the Great Room above the McBrady Center. We will offer a blessing for all school teachers, and school personnel, at all academic levels, as they begin their school year on the weekend of Sept. 22/23, at all Masses. Our Parish Finance Council will meet on Tuesday, Sept. 25, at 7 PM, in the Office Conference Room.

Bishop Ron Hick’s Parish Celebration… On Sunday, Sept. 30, at the 11:30 AM Mass, newly ordained Bishop Ron Hicks, former Associate Pastor at St. Elizabeth Seton Parish, will join us for a Mass of Thanksgiving to God. There will be a light reception in the McBrady Center immediately following the Mass. I have asked our parish organizations for assistance in hosting this celebration and parishioners to share a baked good. Plan on attending — it should be a great afternoon!

Keep Smiling!

CARRY OUR CROSS By Rev. Ronald Rolheiser

A mong Jesus’ many teach-ings we find this, rather harsh-sounding, invitation:

Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me. Who-ever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. I suspect that each of us has a gut-sense of what this means and what it will cost us; but, I suspect too that many of us misunderstand what Jesus is asking here and struggle unhealthily with this invita-tion. What, concretely, does Jesus mean by this? To answer that, I would like to lean on some insights offered by James Martin in his book, Jesus, A Pilgrimage. He suggests that taking up our cross daily and giving up life in order to find deeper life means six interpenetrating things:

F irst, it means accepting that suffering is a part of our lives. Accepting our cross and giving up our lives means that, at some point, we have to make

peace with the unalterable fact that frustration, disap-pointment, pain, misfortune, illness, unfairness, sadness, and death are a part of our lives and they must ultimately be accepted without bitterness. As long as we nurse the notion that pain in our lives is something we need not ac-cept, we will habitually find ourselves bitter—bitter for not having accepted the cross.

S econd, taking up our cross and giving up our lives, means that we may not, in our suffering, pass on any bitterness to those around us. We have a

strong inclination, almost as part of our natural instincts, to make others suffer when we are suffering: If I’m un-happy, I will make sure that others around me are un-happy too! This does not mean, as Martin points out, that we cannot share our pain with others. But there’s a healthy way of doing this, where our sharing leaves oth-ers free, as opposed to an unhealthy kind of sharing which subtly tries to make others unhappy because we are unhappy. There’s a difference between healthily groaning under the weight of our pain and unhealthily whining in self-pity and bitterness under that weight. The cross gives us permission to do the former, but not the latter. Jesus groaned under the weight of his cross, but no self-pity, whining, or bitterness issued forth from his lips or his beaten body. Third, walking in the footsteps of Jesus as he carries his cross means that we must accept some other deaths before our physical death, that we are invited to let some

parts of ourselves die. When Jesus invites us to die in order to find life, he is not, first of all, talking about physical death. If we live in adult-hood, there are a myriad of other deaths that we must undergo be-fore we die physically. Maturity and Christian discipleship are about perennially naming our deaths, claiming our births, mourning our losses, letting go of what’s died, and receiving new spirit for the new life that we are now living. These are the stages of the paschal mys-tery, and the stages of growing up. There are daily deaths.

F ourth, it means that we must wait for the resurrection, that here in this life all sympho-

nies must remain unfinished. The book of Proverbs tells us that sometimes in the midst of pain the best we can do is put our mouths to the dust and wait. Any real un-

derstanding of the cross agrees. So much of life and dis-cipleship is about waiting, waiting in frustration, inside in-justice, inside pain, in longing, battling bitterness, as we wait for something or someone to come and change our situation. We spend about 98% of our lives waiting for ful-fillment, in small and big ways. Jesus’ invitation to us to follow him implies waiting, accepting to live inside an un-finished symphony.

F ifth, carrying our cross daily means accepting that God’s gift to us is often not what we expect. God always answers our prayers but, often times, by

giving us what we really need rather than what we think we need. The Resurrection, says James Martin, does not come when we expect it and rarely fits our notion of how a resurrection should happen. To carry your cross is to be open to surprise.

F inally, taking up your cross and being willing to give up your life means living in a faith that believes that nothing is impossible for God. As James Martin

puts it, this means accepting that God is greater than the human imagination. Indeed, whenever we succumb to the notion that God cannot offer us a way out of our pain into some kind of newness, it’s precisely because we have reduced God down to the size of our own limited imagina-tion. It’s only possible to accept our cross, to live in trust, and to not grow bitter inside pain if we believe in possibili-ties beyond what we can imagine, namely, if we believe in the Resurrection.

We can take up our cross when we begin to believe in the Resurrection.

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

This weekend we come together to celebrate the seminarians of the Archdiocese of Chicago through our annual second collection. The men we acknowledge today are the future leaders of our Church. Your past support of this collection has made a significant impact on each seminarian and I ask you to join me again this year in contributing to the Seminarian Education Second Collection.

The critical education and training needed to successfully shepherd parishes, administer the sacraments, and strengthen our Church is made possible by both your prayers and financial support. There are currently 64 seminarians preparing for a life of service as archdiocesan priests, and their enthusiasm to evangelize our faith is inspiring.

Your contributions to this collection alleviate monthly expenses such as tuition and fees, room and board, and health insurance for each seminarian and will be used solely for the formation of new priests for the Archdiocese of Chicago. Remittance envelopes have been provided to your parish, or you are welcome to contribute online at www.archchicago.org/seminarianfund.

On behalf of current and future archdiocesan seminarians, thank you. May God continue to bless you abundantly. Please know that I keep you in my daily prayers and intentions, and I ask for yours in return.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Archbishop of Chicago

Good News from the Parish Pastoral Council During 2017-18 the Parish Pastoral Council (PPC) methodically reviewed the Parish Transformation Plan evaluating what was accomplished and what is yet to be done. The PPC is pleased to announce that many of the plan’s suggestions have been enacted by the Pastors, Parish Staff, and Church Volunteers. The Parish Transformation Plan had new ideas and ways to strengthen our faith community. The following have been completed: Updating the church website and the addition of the church’s Facebook page. Hiring the Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries and developing new youth and young adult programs. If you haven’t already, please register for the upcoming REBOOT!

Additional items that occurred during the Parish Transformation Plan process: the success of the To Teach Who Christ Is Campaign, the SES 30th Anniversary year-long sponsored events, sponsoring the Raise the Roof event at St. Elizabeth Seton, and beginning the Renew My Church efforts.

Do You Embroider A Little? Can You Embroider Simple Stitches?

The celebration of the Sacrament of Baptism is held twice a month here at Saint Elizabeth Seton Church. Sometimes there are private baptisms as well. Approximately 10 to 12 infants are baptized at our parish every month. From our very beginnings we have had volunteers cutting out baptismal garments, embroidering symbols on the front of the garment, and embroidering the name of the child to be baptized on the back of the garment. This is a wonderful keepsake for the child. Four women currently continue to be involved in this ministry, cutting and surging Baptismal Garments. Come and join us and find out more about this unique ministry here at St. Elizabeth Seton Church. We have little patterns cut out for you and the simple stitches bring such joy to the new parents.

We hope you can join us on one of these following dates: Tuesday, Sept. 18, 9:30am

We will meet in the Great Room (please enter through CJB School doors) Thursday, Sept. 20, 7pm

We will meet in the Parish Office Conference Room (enter through east church doors)

THIS WEEK’S STEWARDSHIP RECOMMENDATION: Reduce single-use plastic waste. It’s everywhere, growing dramatically and lasts 100’s of years. 40% of plastic is used once and tossed. Start simple. Focus on refusing plastic bags, water bottles, straws, cups, lids, utensils, dry cleaning bags, and take-out containers. Purchase and carry alternative reusable versions of those products. Let businesses know that you would like them to offer alternatives. Recycle what you do use-but know that 79% of plastic winds up in landfills.

SAINT OF THE WEEK SENIORS OF SETON

OUR LADY OF SORROWS Feast Day: September 15

The principal biblical references to Mary’s sorrows are Simeon’s prediction about a sword piercing Mary’s soul, and Je-sus’ words from the cross to Mary and to the beloved disciple. The two passages are brought together as prediction and fulfillment. FOR A WHILE THERE WERE TWO FEASTS IN HONOR OF THE SORROWFUL MOTHER: one going back to the 15th century, the other to the 17th century. For a while both were celebrated by the universal Church: one on the Friday before Palm Sunday, the other in September. The principal biblical references to Mary’s sorrows are in Luke 2:35 and John 19:26-27. The Lucan passage is Simeon’s prediction about a sword piercing Mary’s soul; the Johannine passage relates Jesus’ words from the cross to Mary and to the beloved disciple. Many early Church writers interpret the sword as Mary’s sorrows, especially as she saw Jesus die on the cross. Thus, the two passages are brought together as prediction and fulfillment. Saint Ambrose in particular sees Mary as a sorrowful yet powerful figure at the cross. Mary stood fearlessly at the cross while others fled. Mary looked on her Son’s wounds with pity, but saw in them the salvation of the world. As Jesus hung on the cross, Mary did not fear to be killed, but offered herself to her persecutors. COMMENT John’s account of Jesus’ death is highly symbolic. When Jesus gives the beloved disciple to Mary, we are invited to appreciate Mary’s role in the Church: She symbolizes the Church; the beloved disciple represents all believers. As Mary mothered Jesus, she is now mother to all his followers. Furthermore, as Jesus died, he handed over his Spirit. Mary and the Spirit cooperate in begetting new children of God—almost an echo of Luke’s account of Jesus’ conception. Christians can trust that they will continue to experience the caring presence of Mary and Jesus’ Spirit throughout their lives and throughout history.

We will be kicking off our Fall Ministry on Sunday, Sept. 16 from 7-8:30pm…

All High School students are invited. If you have been seeking a place to get involved in our parish, this is your invitation! Our night will be at the Gubbins Center from 7-8:30pm and we will conclude with evening prayer. Youth Ministry will gather like this every 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month unless otherwise stated (such as a holiday or Holy Day of Opportunity). This Fall our meetings will focus on community and small group discussion on faith and social issues. After September 16, you are invited to St. Stephen Catholic Church, 175th and 84th Ave., TP, on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6-8pm. This will be open to 6th grade and up. Friends are welcome even if they don’t attend St. Elizabeth or St. Stephen. We will be using the LifeTeen program to grow our ministry. This program includes access to many high school and college ministry resources such as guided discussions over church teachings, social issues, and some cool social opportunities. Every summer, LifeTeen hosts a leadership camp in Kansas for teens that demonstrate leadership in and out of the Church. I will include various articles from their blogs in my blurbs to offer teen and young adult perspectives on various topics. I am still seeking dedicated volunteers that want to grow individually and use their God-given gifts to help mentor and develop the teens in our various programs. If you or someone you know is interested in joining our ministry, you can contact me directly. All adults working with minors in the church must be VIRTUS certified. This certification includes attending a training session offered throughout the Chicagoland area and reading ongoing monthly training articles.

C ardinal Joseph Bernardin Catholic School (CJB) is proud to be recognized a “Hero” by Special Olympics and listed on the new 50th

Anniversary Memorial at Soldier Field.

This beautiful memorial will be a permanent fixture at Soldier Field and has a great message with the awesome Special Olympics Athlete Oath…"Let me win. But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt." CJB was excited to support the efforts of Special Olympics at their 50th Anniversary events that were held in July. We had many families and students who attended the Special Olympics Unified Cup at Toyota Park and helped with activities at the Global Day of Inclusion which was held at Soldier Field, and we are proud to help this wonderful organization,” stated Principal Mary Iannucilli. Special Olympics, which began at Soldier Field on July 20,1968,celebrated its 50th Anniversary. With more than 5 million athletes in over 170 countries, Special Olympics has come a long way since the first Games at Soldier Field. This year, Chicago served as the global stage for a series of high profile events which highlights inclusion and Chicago’s leading role in this worldwide movement. These events took place July 17-21.

LIVING the

WORD

LIVING the

WORD

NEXT WEEK’S FOCUS:

BLURRED FOCUS Try as we might to live good and righteous lives, we sometimes lose focus through jealousy or envy of others. Better to stay focused on how we can serve others. FIRST READING The wicked say: With revilement and torture let us put the just one to the test (Wisdom 2:12, 17-20). The theme of this reading and the Gospel is the suffering of the just one at the hands of evil people. The Gospel contains Jesus’ prediction of his passion. This reading speaks of how the evil conspire to attack the just one because they cannot stand his goodness. If we try to live Christian lives, if we choose the good and reject evil, we, too, will suffer for the Good News. There are people who will resent us for our choices and they will oppose us. SECOND READING The wisdom from above is full of mercy and good fruits (James 3:16—4:3). Once again we must ask how the LORD will respond to our prayers. At times, God intervenes in powerful ways and rights the wrongs. Miracles can and do happen. Other times, God asks us to trust in the midst of suffer-ing. Rather than making it all better, he tells us that he will meet us on the cross. In either case, he will answer our appeal in the most loving way possible.

GOSPEL Whoever receives one child such as this in my name, receives me (Mark 9:30-37). The disciples, who did not understand the first prediction of the passion, do not understand what Jesus is saying. They are clinging to power. This is why Jesus tells them that whoever serves a child is doing his will. (This is not the passage in which Jesus tells his disciples to become like little children.) Children cannot pay us back for what we are doing for them, so serving a child (or those who are powerless and who have no influence in society) is to serve Christ himself.

REFLECTION If a dollar was given at a confession for every time someone confessed jealousy or envy, the Church would be rich. When we hear someone get more attention or hear them being affirmed for their gifts, we can get so focused on another that we often miss the gifts God has given us and the good that God does through us. We can become “other-focused”, rather than “other-centered.” When we can embrace others and their gifts, as Jesus embraces us, we are free to see our gifts and use them to serve others. Even if we don’t act jealous, inwardly we can be like the wicked, who want to “beset the just one, because he is obnoxious to us” (Wisdom 2:1). When we don’t get our way we can be hurt and feel challenged by the just one. We can feel unappreciated, undervalued, and unloved, so we may lash out. To feel better, we might seek to discredit and even destroy the other. We become our worst selves. When we affirm another’s gifts, we offer them welcome, like Jesus. When we are “other-focused”, we begin to see the gifts that we have and experience God’s care for us. Instead of complaining about what we lack, we give thanks for what we have. By affirming others, we experience God affirming us. Self-possessed, we become grateful. Grateful, we become more peaceful, gentle, and merciful and sow the fruit of righteousness. Welcome your gifts and your weaknesses. Put your arms around them, as Christ did the little child. That acceptance will root out jealousy and selfish ambition and replace them with appreciation and a servant’s heart. It takes time, so be patient, especially with yourself, and you will be rich indeed.

A FINAL THOUGHT FOR YOUR WEEK TWENTY FOURTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME

A common internet joke format begins, “There are two

kinds of people,” and then illustrates the two categories into which the world is divided. These jokes are funny because they are relatable; for instance, two images of an email app, one with no notifications and one with 3,588 unread messages.

T oday’s readings play with this idea that there are two kinds of

people in more serious but equally relatable ways. The second reading sets a scene many of us probably experience: passing by someone without adequate food or clothing. The writer asks, “If… one of you says to them, ‘Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well,’ but you do not give them the necessities of the body, what good is it?” (JAS 2:16).

How often have we passed someone with a sign, or asking for money at an intersection, and not even wished them well but simply avoided eye contact? Because we’re in a rush, because we feel uncomfortable, or because we’re not sure how to help, we feel disconnected from this other person, like we are on opposite sides of some dividing line. In today’s Gospel, Jesus reveals to his disciples what must happen to him: He must “be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and rise after three days” (MARK 8:31).Jesus’ disciples are disturbed by this revelation because they think of Jesus as one of the “good guys.” They’ve just described him in the same category as John the Baptist, Elijah and the prophets! He can’t possibly be one of those people who would be outcast and executed as a criminal. But Jesus rejects his disciples’ insistences that there are two kinds of people. That is how humans think, he says; for God, we are all one. The person with two coats and the person with none; the person

with more than enough food and the person going hungry. We are all one, all on the same team, working toward the same goal: a more just, peaceful world. Just as he does throughout the Gospels — dining with tax collectors, conversing with Samaritans, healing lepers — Jesus in the Gospel today aligns himself with the people society has rejected. Jesus is not concerned with being in the “right” half of the two kinds of people. His whole ministry makes us see the falsehood of division and gives us the blueprint for healing it.

A cting on this blueprint is essential to our

discipleship; as the second reading today reminds us, without action our faith means little. Looking for situations in which we feel

we are on one side of a divide and a fellow human being is on the other is a good way to identify the moments that require us to act. The common scenario of meeting a stranger asking for help is just one of those moments. There are many opportunities for narrowing the divide we feel in that situation. We can begin by acknowledging the other person’s humanity: seeing them, saying hello, wishing them a good day. We might choose to share food or clothing with them if we have something to spare. We can give of our excess in more organized ways as well, donating items we no longer need to people who can use them or financially supporting local organizations that provide services. And, we can work to build a more supportive community by voting for people and policies that make that a priority as well as organizing with our neighbors to advocate for justice for all. As you go forth into the world today, consider:

What are other ways you are confronted with the idea that “there are two kinds of people?” What

can you do to reduce that division?

Lord, I seek to walk always in your presence. As you guide me through the land of the living,

you keep my feet from stumbling and you dry the tears from my eyes.

In sorrow and death, I call upon your name in faith. Incline your ear and hear me.

Amen.
