MORE THOUGHTS FROM THE PARISH SURVEY CARDS
A few months ago, when I mentioned that a new sound system—one of the most frequent comments from the first batch of “survey cards”—was in the planning stage, I said that, from time to time, I’d address other comments that were made. There is another larger batch of cards that came in after the last Parish Pastoral Council meeting which we’ll review at our meeting next month, so there should be enough material to last for several more reflections after this one. But this comes from that first batch….
I’m happy to report that a challenge I presented in that first article—namely, that some suggestions that were made would only become a reality if more people stepped forward to help—was accepted by one generous parishioner. The suggestion that will soon be implemented was for the formation of a Men’s Group to gather monthly to reflect on the Sunday Gospel. Other parishes in our Renew My Church grouping have similar gatherings for men and ours will begin this coming Sep-tember. It will take place once a month, early on a Saturday morning, so watch for that announcement next month.
Next to the desire for a new church sound system, the most frequently mentioned suggestion was for more social activities. I totally agree. But in case anyone missed it, no one replied to my bulletin request for help with a Mardi Gras this year—not even when I made personal ap-peals; everyone just seemed to be too busy, which I can certainly un-derstand. And the wonderfully generous people who had organized the Winter Picnic for several years just ran out of steam, with hardly any new volunteers stepping forward. No one who volunteers their time, talent and energy for anything should be expected to do the job forever. Even indentured servants in 18th century America earned their freedom at some point! When the Mardi Gras plans fell through, it was a blessing that members of our choir and the Parish Council took on the job of organizing the St. Joseph’s Table and they did a great job. But we need folks who aren’t already involved in parish groups or ministries to help out with those desired “social” events. So here’s the request: if you’d like to help develop a Parish Activities Committee, just let me know; I’ll be more than happy to be a part of that with any-one who volunteers.
One of these weeks, I’ll get around to commenting on one of the sug-gestions that we won’t be implementing—that we have less music at Mass and that we institute some changes to make the Mass “move along” faster. That suggestion betrays an unfortunate lack of under-standing about what it means for us to gather for worship. I thought that I had written fairly extensively over the past four years about the importance and meaning of Sunday worship. I guess I need to say a bit more!

16TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
JULY 21, 2019
FAMILY CONNECTION In our families and homes, we have
boundaries. Some are geographical;
we may have our own room or part of
a room that we want others to stay
out of. Parents may have home of-
fices that are off-limits to children.
Some boundaries are behavioral;
children may speak one way to their
friends, but they are not allowed to
speak the same way to their parents
or other adults. A Curfew is another
type of boundary, whose purpose is
to protect children's safety.
Talk about examples of boundaries
in your family. For the most part,
these boundaries are good. Talk
about how sometimes we set up
boundaries for the wrong reasons.
For example, if we are angry with a
sibling, we may draw a line and tell
him or her to stay on his or her side.
Explain that when we use boundaries
to exclude others, we are being hurt-
ful. Point out how in Jesus' time,
some boundaries were used to un-
fairly exclude people. One example
was from last week's Gospel: Samari-
tans. This Sunday's Gospel has an-
other example: women. Talk about
how the role of women has changed
in your lifetime. Explain that in this
Sunday's Gospel, Jesus breaks down
a barrier that kept women from being
disciples.
Read aloud Luke 10:38-42. Talk
about how Martha is conditioned by
the existing boundaries of her soci-
ety, but how her sister, Mary, breaks
through that boundary and becomes
a disciple of Jesus. Talk about how
you can work as a family to break
down boundaries that separate peo-
ple. Point out that when we pray the
Lord's Prayer, we call God ―Our Fa-
ther,‖ meaning that we are all his
children; no boundaries should sepa-
rate us. Conclude this time together
by praying the Lord's Prayer.

Our Faith BACKGROUND ON THE GOSPEL READING
Gospel Reading: Luke 10:38-42
Jesus visits the house of Martha and Mary.
The story of Jesus in the home of Martha and Mary complements the
story of the Good Samaritan, which immediately precedes it in Luke's
Gospel. Both stories are unique to Luke. The story of the Samaritan
opens with the words ―a certain man.‖ Today's reading opens with the
words ―a certain woman.‖ The Samaritan is an example of how a disci-
ple should see and act. Mary is an example of how a disciple should
listen. Mary, a woman, is a marginalized person in society, like the Sa-
maritan. Both do what is not expected of them. As a woman, Mary
would be expected, like Martha, to prepare hospitality for a guest. Here
again Jesus breaks with the social conventions of his time. Just as a
Samaritan would not be a model for neighborliness, so a woman would
not sit with the men around the feet of a teacher.
Both stories exemplify how a disciple is to fulfill the dual command
which begins chapter 10—love of God (Mary) and love of neighbor (the
Samaritan). These are the two essentials of life in the kingdom. By us-
ing the examples of a Samaritan and a woman, however, Jesus is say-
ing something more. Social codes and boundaries were strict in Jesus'
time. Yet to love God with all one's heart and one's neighbor requires
breaking those rules. The Kingdom of God is a society without distinc-
tions and boundaries between its members. It is a society that re-
quires times for seeing and doing and also times for listening and
learning at the feet of a teacher.

Saint Bridget (of Sweden) Feast day July 23
The gift of mystical prayer, an experience of a special
union with God in love, was given to Bridget. She of-
ten had visions of Christ’s passion. However, Bridget
was also very practical in living out the Gospel.
Bridget was born in 1303 into the family of a wealthy
landowner in Sweden. She became a very good wife
and mother. One of her eight children, Catherine of
Sweden, was canonized. Once Bridget was invited to
be the queen’s chief lady-in-waiting. She lived at the
court for two years and encouraged the queen and king to live holy lives.
After her husband’s death, Bridget founded an order of nuns known as the
Bridgetines, who contributed to the culture of Scandinavia. She showed
loving concern for people who were poor and sick, and many people came
to her for help. Bridget made pilgrimages around Italy and even to the
Holy Land. She spent her last years in Rome. She urged the pope to leave
Avignon in France and return to Rome. Bridget died in Rome in 1373.

HELP WITH SCHOOL SUPPLIES FOR RESPOND NOW
In the past the parishioners of St. Joseph have been very generous donating
just one school supply item. This year we are asking if you would donate any
number of school items such as double pocket folders (sometimes they
come in a pack of 5), #2 pencils, wide rule spiral note books and wide rule
notebook paper. Please feel free to donate whatever you would like. Re-
spond Now has several school districts with children in need. Many stores
in our area are just starting to display their back to school supplies. This
might be a good time to take advantage of sale items. We are hoping for a
variety of school supplies so that we can give them out during the school
year as needed. Any questions, call Marietta at 708-798-3228 and leave a
message.
JULY IS HIV AWARENESS MONTH! While great progress has been made in the prevention and treatment of
HIV/AIDS and in reducing the number of deaths from the disease, we con-
tinue to see new infections. It is estimated that nearly 40,000 new HIV in-
fections occur every year in the United States. Complacency about HIV/AIDS
contributes to these numbers. The only way to know if you have the virus is
to get tested. This disease has no cure, there is no vaccine to prevent it.
Know your status….get tested...and urge others to get tested! For more in-
formation call 312-948-6500 or go to www.hivaidsservicesministry.org.

For Your Information ARE YOU PUTTING YOURSELF AT RISK FOR SKIN CANCER?
There are more than a million people living with melanoma of the skin in the
U.S., according to the National Cancer Institute. Could you be one of them?
With skin cancer rates continuing rise, Dr. Katherine Garrity, a board-certified
dermatologist, explains what simple mistakes you could be making.
Ignoring family history of melanoma is the first misstep. ―Family history plays
a critical role in a person’s risk for skin cancer, particularly melanoma. It’s
important to know if your parents or siblings have a history of melanoma be-
cause that increases your risk of having a melanoma,‖ Dr. Garrity says.
Thinking of hopping into a tanning bed to get a base tan before vacation?
Think again. When you tan your skin, even if you don’t burn, it’s considered
sun damage.
―Tanning is the body’s self-defense against ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun,
so any time you tan, your body has received enough UV light from the sun to
cause damage to your skin cells’ DNA,‖ Dr. Garrity says. ―Using a tanning bed
once increases a person’s risk of melanoma by 20 percent.‖
When done improperly, even taking steps to protect yourself from the sun can
increase your chance of developing melanoma.
―Most people think of sun protection as using sunscreen,‖ she says. ―But
there is more to sun protection, including UPF clothing, wearing wide brim
hats, avoiding peak sun hours of 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., wearing sunglasses, ap-
plying lip balms with SPF, using sun/beach umbrellas/tents taking and sup-
plements that include Polypodium leucotomos fern extract.‖
Not choosing the right sunscreen or misusing the correct one has its conse-
quences, too. ―Picking a sunscreen that is SPF 30 or higher, is broad-
spectrum and is water resistant is key,‖ she says. ―For the average adult,
about a one-ounce shot glass full of sunscreen lotion/cream is what is
needed to cover his/her body.‖
In general, spray sunscreens tend to miss large areas of the body. Dr. Garrity
suggests sticking with a lotion/cream-based sunscreen or to spray sunscreen
into your hand and then apply it to your skin. Not reapplying sunscreen can
decrease its effectiveness. ―Reapplication of sunscreen is critical. Sunscreen
should be applied every two hours, after swimming/water exposure and after
exercise/sweating,‖ she says. ―After the skin is wet, it should be dried thor-
oughly before reapplication.‖
Assuming you are protected from the sun in the shade is risky, as well.
―Sand, snow, concrete and water can reflect more than half of the sun’s rays
onto your skin. Sitting in the shade does not guarantee protection from sun-
burn. Being in high altitudes also increases your risk of burning,‖ Dr. Garrity
says.
And, daily moisturizing and makeup products containing SPF are a great step
in sun protection, but Dr. Garrity adds to ―be sure to apply SPF to your neck,
chest and tops of the hands and arms – these areas are exposed to UV light
daily year-round.‖ Excerpted from AdvocareAurora Health ENews, 7/4/19
Wishing you joy and good health,
Mary Bohlen RN
