seek, share, rejoice - pastor's letter

Dear Parishioners,

“The jar of fl our did not go empty, nor the jar of oil run dry.”

This weekend’s fi rst reading is taken from the Book of Kings and tells the story of the poor widow who serves Elijah her last bit of fl our and oil and now has nothing to feed herself and her son. In recognition of her kindness, the Lord provides her with fl our and oil that will never be depleted.

Sometimes we can feel we are running out. It may be energy, it may be patience, it may be resilience. With many de-mands and expectations placed on us, we can feel overwhelmed. The scrip-tures remind us that in our poverty, in our inadequacies, in our limitations, the Lord stands before us with open arms. He sees our struggles and burdens and seeks to walk with us.

I mentioned several weeks ago that I am in my fi fth year as pastor and we are expected to participate in a comprehen-sive evaluation process. The intent is to enhance our effectiveness, to better appreciate our gifts. It is also a tool of discernment. A determination by the Archbishop is made in the sixth year as to whether a pastor is extended or not.

One of the hopes at this point is to en-courage a pastor not to “run out of gas”. The archdiocese has seen several pas-tors who burn out or are simply going through the motions. This is not good for the pastor let alone the parish.

The process is called, 360 By Design and was developed by the Center for Creative Leadership. A process em-ployed for many executives in a wide spectrum. It seeks feedback from a vari-ety of perspectives to see where there is consensus and where there are different perceptions.

The process depends on a lot of par-ticipation to validate what is being evaluated. Anyone could participate, and some people are specifi cally con-tacted so feedback comes from those I report to, those who report to me,

parish leadership and parishioners at large. I was presented the fi rst round of evaluating the feedback and I was over-whelmed. I can’t thank all of you enough for your participation. I had the highest parish participation rate of the priests in the process and my consultant thinks a record established. The questionnaire was not just checking boxes and I was deeply touched by the many comments that you went out of your way to share. There was a signifi cant endorsement of my leadership and the direction of the parish. No parish is perfect and certainly no pastor is perfect. I am reviewing the many suggestions and fi ndings to build on my strengths and address my limitations. At some point I hope to make available an executive summary for those who are interested. I am so blessed to be here!

We have been very busy with all sorts of things going on. Holly Fair was a great success. Hundreds came to get in the holiday spirit! The Men’s Club coat drive collected over 800 coats. The Women’s Club food drive is in the midst of collect-ing thousands of food products for the pantries of our Sharing parishes. The annual Parish Summit sponsored by the Parish Pastoral Council was a great success. Well over a hundred of the ministerial leaders gathered for prayer and discussion. Our eighth grade girls’ volleyball team is the best of the Catholic League going 25-0 to capture the cham-pionship. Our eighth grade football team fell a bit short in the fi nals but had a great season. I had a great conversation last week with parishioner Ron Malik who founded the OLPH football program in 1954.

As Veteran’s Day approaches, let us pray in gratitude for all those who have served our nation. We can never be grateful enough for the sacrifi ces they have made to protect our freedoms. We pray especially for those who made the ultimate sacrifi ce.

Have a blessed week,

Rev. Jerry Boland

Jerry Boland, Pastor

Thoughts on the

Sunday

Scriptures

In today’s Gospel Jesus said: “You shall love your neighbor as your-self.” It was not meant to be a suggestion or an option.

He didn’t say when it fi ts into our day or suits our time schedule, or after we’ve completed our various recreations.

It is a requirement for Christians; to exercise good stewardship over the neighbors entrusted to us by God.

It is a requirement often ignored when we put up barriers of anger, fear, or intolerance for a neighbor.

How can we look be-yond our own personal diffi culties to see what we can do to love the person who lives next door, works next to us, or who sits next to us in the church pew?

Operation Turkey

Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Consider donating a frozen turkey and brighten the holiday for a needy family. Turkeys can be delivered to the Sharing Room entry the two weekends before Thanksgiving (November 10/11 and 17/18) during Mass times.

Shop the store, make a donation, and Sharing will pick up the dinners. Look for this opportunity, which will run early November through Thanksgiving.
