Dear People of Saint Anne,
Sometimes, as a priest, what we do is explain, sometimes we comfort, often we teach, we organize, we guide,
we recommend, we direct, we supervise. Sometimes, both alone and with others, we even question and doubt
and worry. But more often than not, we pray. Like Jesus, we find ourselves standing with arms stretched out
from earth to heaven, in acts that implore God’s merciful presence and action; we anxiously await a revelation
of God’s will, as Jesus did in the garden and on the cross. My priesthood may well be defined as my
willingness to stand in the center of life’s tensions, alone and with the people of God, in prayer.
When Jesus spoke of prayer, he did not really give lessons outside the model for the Lord’s Prayer. But the
way he described his Father said a lot about how hard praying is. When he claims that the one “who asks,
receives, the one who seeks, finds, and the one who knocks, the door will be open.“ Jesus is perhaps a little ingenuous.
Although this may be true over time, Jesus advises elsewhere, that the one who prays should be as tough as an
old lady demanding justice from a corrupt judge. That is our only hope of getting our prayers answered.
Jesus says his Father will answer with an egg, not a scorpion; a fish, not a snake. He does give his Spirit to
those who ask. But a lot of screaming and pounding seems to be required first. Apparently, we are expected
to endure God’s silence and inaction with demands and frustrated insistence.
To pray as Jesus describes, demands both the courage of a warrior and the docility of a disciple. In the garden
of Gethsemane, he prayed with heartfelt honesty for God to let the cup pass away without his having to drink
it, but then added, “yet not what I want but what you want.” On the cross itself, at the very moment he was
fulfilling the Father’s will, Jesus cried out, wondering why God had forsaken him. Perhaps this is why Jesus
says that the kingdom of heaven can only be taken by force. I am not violent like that. Thus, my prayer often
and easily, even gratefully, turns into something else. Into distraction, meditation; into licking my wounds
after yesterday’s battles; into reflection on the day’s upcoming events; into drawing up a list of the things I
have to get done. There is something in us that wants to domesticate prayer, to siphon out the awe and tense
uncertainty and replace it with comfy things of our own ken and preference. I rarely pour out my heart in
candor and wonder, or in doubt and fury, or in whatever else may honestly bubble up from unseen depths. I
prefer to be almost anywhere but that tender wound of passion and vulnerability. Whether consciously or not,
I look for whatever returns me to rest. I once thought that being a martyr would be the hardest thing that
could be required of a disciple, but now I suspect, at least for me, it is to remain in this fragile spot where I am
not totally in control or utterly out of control, where I am contingent, in between, where I know myself as
creature, sinner, disciple. Saint Teresa of Avila once remarked, “without first entering our own souls without
getting to know ourselves.” If you want to know why we do not reach the intimacy of walking with the Lord in
the cool of the evening, it is our unwillingness to see ourselves as we are. And I personally believe there is
nothing so painful as prayer… prayer requires that we fight to our last breath. It requires us to be naked, to
strip off, before we are in the presence of the Lord. In the Old Testament, if a priest was to enter the sanctuary,
he was required to strip off all his clothes, to bathe, and then, only then, the naked priest was allowed to enter
the holy place.
In the Love of Christ.
Fr. Rodolfo G. Ramirez.

PHASE TWO REOPENING
BY REOPENING LEADERSHIP TEAM
Dear People of Saint Anne,
The Phase 2 Reopening for Saint Anne began last Saturday, July 18. Health and safety for participating in masses were of
paramount concern. Here are the changes:
Weekend Masses schedule: Saturday, July 25 at 5:15 p.m. and Sunday, July 26 at 8:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m.
For this weekend, we are allowed reservations for 125 people for each mass.
We will continue to offer our weekend masses and daily reflections online. Older Parishioners in the high-risk
category, anyone who is not feeling well, and anyone who has been exposed to someone with COVID-19 should
refrain from attending Mass.
Weekly, Monday through Friday, Masses have resumed at 8:15 a.m. in the Church.
If you plan to attend any Mass in the church, reservations are required:
Use Sign-Up Genius for all Mass Reservations on the parish website. Our online reservation system is now open.
Select the Mass you want to attend, and tell us the total number of people who will be attending (please add
additional names in the comment box). The reservation system will remain open until noon on Fridays for the
Masses that weekend.
For safety of attendees, volunteers and clergy, entry into the church will be prohibited once Mass begins, and we
plan to begin each Mass as scheduled.
Plan to arrive at least 20 minutes ahead of time to allow for check-in.
Face masks are required any time you are on church property (face mask must cover your nose, mouth and chin).
When entering the building, your temperature will be checked.
Maintain 6 ft social distancing at all time.
Your reservation will be confirmed at the Kiosk in the gathering space.
You and your family will be directed to your pew, ensuring social distancing seating.
There will be a revised procedure for the receiving of communion. Please follow the usher instructions for hand
sanitizing, approaching the priest/deacon/minister. A demonstration will be provided. One can only receive the
Body of Christ in your hands.
When Mass ends - you will be dismissed, row-by-row, beginning with those in the rear of the church. Go directly
to your car. Please do not congregate in the gathering space or outside the church. Volunteers will guide you to
exit.
Other general information:
1. Restrooms will be limited to one person at a time. The state requires sanitizing after each individual use.
2. Hymnals, bulletins and other paper items have been removed until further notice. The bulletin is available on
the website.
3. A cantor and musician will be present at the Masses, but we ask that members of the congregation not join in
the singing at this time.
4. Offerings can be made in the offering boxes in the gathering space.
If you have any questions with the sign-up reservation system, or feel you need assistance, or would prefer to have
someone take your reservation, please call the Parish office at 847.382.5300 and we will gladly assist you.
Lastly, we wish to thank you for your prayers, your patience, and your support, as we have traveled together through this
pandemic. We are looking forward to seeing you soon.
In the Peace of Christ,

WE CONTINUE TO SEEK REOPENING VOLUNTEERS
Saint Anne Catholic Community
Dear Parishioners,
The scale of support needed to implement the requirements for reopening, necessitate teams of volunteers
available to execute three elements of reopening management and maintenance:
Set-up team: Volunteers will ensure that: all supplies needed for each sacramental celebration/
gathering are ready for use, entrances and exits are marked and propped physically open prior to
attendees’ arrival/departure, windows are opened, restrooms are stocked and managed, etc. They will
ensure hand sanitizers are available, and that pews are marked off according to social distancing
guidelines.
Greeting team: Greeters will assist in managing the flow of congregants as they enter the church,
participate in the liturgy/sacrament, and exit the church. Team members will combine some of the
functions of an usher, such as directing participants to appropriate seating/waiting areas, but will
include additional responsibilities, including, but not limited to, making sure attendees use hand
sanitizer upon entering, are wearing a mask, and are reminded not to enter if ill. Given the
circumstances, greeters will need to be tactful and firm, paying careful attention to all people on-site.
To support parish greeter teams, rudimentary training tips on handling difficult situations will be
provided.
Disinfecting team: These volunteers will help maintain and sanitize essential and trafficked areas of
the church before and after the church has been used. Masks and gloves will be provided, if necessary,
in addition to approved cleaning/disinfecting supplies. Per the certification process, parishes will need
to develop appropriate schedules and verification methods to ensure cleaning occurs at the proper
times, relative to when congregants arrive and leave the church building. To support the cleaning
team, guidance on proper cleaning procedures will be provided in the webinar training, as well as in
the Supply Starter Kit.
REQUIREMENTS:
Health and Age: Any captain or volunteer must not be part of a “vulnerable population” (not over the age
of 65; no underlying medical condition such as diabetes, lung disease, undergoing cancer treatment, etc.).
For greeter teams, those from 18 years or older to 65, are welcome.
Scope of work: High School students who wish to volunteer may do so, for set-up teams or cleaning
teams, provided they have permission from their parent or guardian.
If you have additional questions please contact, Eryka Accordino
at [email protected] or 847.620.3055.

Human Concerns
The year 2020 started with some chatter about a
virus an ocean away, but by the middle of March,
that chatter became nothing less than a
high-pitched holler.
Continents were closing to wait out the worst of
the COVID-19 pandemic and states throughout
America were shuttering everything from
businesses and restaurants, to schools and
churches, in hopes the deadly virus would end.
A little closer to home, in Palatine, Illinois, the
impact of the state's closures were particularly felt
by Little Sisters of the Poor's Saint Joseph's
Home, as they quietly struggled to find the
resources to feed their 90 elderly residents and 20
resident nuns.
Food supplies were limited at the home. Weeks
before, Peapod, an online grocer who supported
the home with more than 1,000 cases of food per
month, went out of business. Because churches
were closed, food donations from those places
also had stopped. And Chicago's wholesale
markets, where the nuns would receive produce,
meat and other food products, were limited;
Restaurants weren't operating, so food
availability was tight.
"For more than 140 years, wholesale suppliers
gave food to our nuns," explained the
organization's Director of Development, Diana
Olson. "But with so many restaurants not operating,
there just wasn't enough food at the wholesale markets
to go around."
That's when Saint Anne Hope Ministries began
supporting the home with weekly dinners from
local restaurants.
Since April, Hope Ministries has provided more
than three months of Wednesday night dinners to
residents and nuns.
"Wednesday has become a special day that we all look
forward to," said Mother Superior, Sister Margaret
Charles. "Saint Anne Hope Ministries has
brightened the lives of our residents."
For more than 140 years, Little Sisters of the Poor
received food from Chicago's wholesale markets,
which provided enough food for its residents and
nuns.

DID THEY LEAVE HAPPIER?
BY SISTER LAURETTA LEIPZIG
“Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier.” This is a beautiful quote of Mother
Teresa. Let’s unpack it and see how we can carry out her advice. We know that happiness in this world is a relative
term, one that changes for the same person every minute, when something else changes in his or her life. When
viewed objectively, we see that happiness actually can and does change from situation to situation. But that’s not
the happiness Mother Teresa is talking about!
The happiness she is referring to lives in our heart, not in our situation, possessions, or any other such area. She is
telling us that real happiness is when you help others and make them happy. Mother Teresa elaborates further on
her quotation by inviting us to be the “…living expression of God’s kindness—kindness, shown in our face, kindness in our
eyes, kindness is our smile and kindness in our warm greeting.” She is quoted as saying, “Happiness is the small, nameless
moments you spend smiling with someone who needs it.” St. Francis of Assisi, in his peace prayer, reminds us “…that it
is in giving that we receive.” To him, real happiness is reciprocal. The more we give, the more we receive. Winston
Churchill reinforces the idea of giving happiness when he says, “We make a living by what we get; we make a life by
what we give.” We might add that it is not how much we give, but how much love we put into the giving. Bishop
Barron tells us that happiness emanates from love and it results in desiring the other’s good, not for our own sake,
but solely for the other. He reminds us that we are created to mold one another’s dreams, hold each other’s fragile
hopes in our hands and touch each other’s heart.
Do we actually have the ability to make someone’s life happier? Do we have the power to give to others what we
want ourselves? Can we make someone happier today? Yes, we have the ability to make another person happier,
feel better. If we check out how supportive we are, how enjoyable we are to be with, how much we show that we
care while that person is in our presence, we will know if we are giving happiness to others.
At a large gathering the leader gave a balloon to each person present, telling them to write their name on it and then drop
it in a large container. He took the basket into another room and invited the people to go into that room and find the
balloon with their name on it. Since they had only 5 minutes, they naturally rushed in, pushing and shoving each other,
but they couldn’t find their balloon in their haste. Then they were instructed to pick out any balloon and give it to the
person whose name was on it, and each person received his or her balloon quickly. This is how it is with happiness, says
the storyteller. All our lives are spent searching for happiness, yet our happiness depends on giving to others.
To get a handle on giving happiness, consider who are the people we, ourselves, would want to encounter, who
would make us leave happier. Certainly, it’s not the energy zapper, the angry, the selfish, the person who doesn’t
care or take the time to listen. Rather, it’s the calm, positive person, the listener, the kind and generous person and
the empathetic. They are the people who make us feel better after encountering them, who lift our spirits and
remind us of God’s love and presence. So, these are the people we want to emulate.
Take the example of Jesus. He walked with his people in their sorrow, listened to their stories, loved them, showed
them kindness and brought them to a new place in dealing with their world. That’s what Mother Teresa is telling
us. Her advice is an invitation to see life with a different perspective, an invitation to open our hearts and realize
that we can be agents of God’s grace wherever we are by acting with generosity and goodness, by being sensitive to
the cry of the needy, caring about everyone who comes to us, providing an understanding that the world is bigger
than “me” and my own needs.
Let us take to heart Mother Teresa’s admonition and be the living experience of God’s love in this world. Make
everyone happier because they met you!

or laugh at what you believe in? Does he/she make you feel
stupid, ignorant or incompetent?

comments such as, “You’re no good?” Does he/she make you
feel unable to do anything right or that you can’t get along in
the world without his/her help?
RIDICULE: Does your partner make fun of you alone or in
other people’s presence?
BLAMING OTHERS: Does your partner blame others for what
he/she does or what happens to him/her?

Sacraments We believe that the celebration of the sacraments
ranks among the most important gifts that we have.
We look forward to sharing these celebrations with
those who, in some way, are part of our community.
Therefore, please note the following:
Visitation of the Sick: If you or a family member are in a local
hospital or are homebound and would like a visit from a
minister of care or a priest, call Mary Ellen Johnston at
773..456..6664.
Funerals: To inquire and schedule funeral arrangements, please
call Mary Ellen Johnston at 773..456..6664.
Baptism: Our Baptism ministry is pleased to help your family
prepare for the special event of your child’s entrance into our
faith community.
Two Baptism sessions are required for parents baptizing
their 1st child
Parents who have had a Baptism at another Catholic Church
and are now wanting to baptize a child at Saint Anne will be
asked to speak to a staff member before scheduling Baptism
Parents who have already attended Baptism preparation at
Saint Anne will be asked to speak to a staff member before
scheduling Baptism
Information for setting a Baptism date will be given at the
meeting or at the time of the interview. Call the Parish Office at
847.382.5300.
Marriage: To be married at Saint Anne, the preparation process
should begin 7 months to one year prior to the wedding date.
Please call the Parish Office to secure a date as soon as possible.
Membership at Saint Anne is not a requirement. We look
