A Note From The Pastor… Next weekend at all of the Masses, we will have our

Annual Collec"on for the Catholic Campaign for Human

Development (CCHD). Please see the Le#er from

Cardinal-Designate Cupich later in this bulle"n, and please

donate to help the poor among us.

Special thanks to Leslie Hazinski and her Family, the

Dunlaps, the McFarlins, and all of the other OLH Parishioners

who worked hard, and gave so generously of their "me to

create a wonderful All Saints’ Day Party. It truly was a huge

success with about 50 people par"cipa"ng. Events such as

these bring the faith into our lives, making our faith a part of

our culture.

Recently, the Va"can’s Congrega"on for the Doctrine of

the Faith issued an Instruc"on, To Rise With Christ, regarding

burial rites involving ashes/cremated remains of the deceased. Actually, there has been no

change in the rules governing crema"on. Rather, in issuing this Instruc"on, the Congrega"on

noted that “the prac!ce of crema!on has notably increased in many countries, but

simultaneously new ideas contrary to the Church’s faith have also become widespread.”

Specifically, To Rise With Christ is addressing prac"ces in society which have grown in

popularity in recent years in regard to the care of cremated remains a'er death: the

separa"on or sca#ering of ashes, the retaining or display of ashes in one’s home, or the use of

ashes in the crea"on of jewelry. In all of these cases, the Instruc"on reiterates the Church’s

firm belief in the respec*ul care of ashes/cremated remains of the departed, such that “the

ashes of the faithful must be laid to rest in a sacred place, that is, in a cemetery or, in certain

cases, in a Church or an area, which has been set aside for this purpose.” Reminding us of the

ancient prac"ce of burying the bodies of the deceased “prevents the faithful departed from

being forgo"en, or their remains from being shown a lack of respect.”

Catholic Cemeteries has some helpful informa"on regarding crema"on on their website.

I encourage you to visit www.CatholicCemeteriesChicago.org for more informa"on on the

new Instruc"on, as well as other per"nent informa"on regarding Catholic burials, and

ministry to the grieving.

In this month of November, let us con"nue to pray for our beloved dead, and let us also

reach out to the poor in deed and in our prayers.

God Bless,

Fr. Paul

Small Group Retreat For Marian Consecra!on

33 Days To Morning Glory — By Fr. Michael Gaitley Are you ready to learn the quickest, surest, and easiest way to holiness?

Pope John Paul II and Mother Teresa both knew that the quickest way to be

transformed into a Saint is through a rela"onship with Our Blessed Mother, Mary.

The Legion of Mary is sponsoring a Marian Consecra"on Small Group Retreat.

Please join us next Saturday, November 19th, as we con"nue a 33-day prepara"on

for Marian Consecra"on, which will take place on Thursday, December 8th, on the Feast of the Immaculate

Concep"on. We started the Small Group Retreat on Saturday, November 5th. Our Small Group Retreat will meet

for four consecu!ve Saturday mornings (November 19th, 26th, December 3rd, and 10th) from 9:15-10:45AM in

the Holy Child Center. At the weekly mee"ngs, we share insights within our small groups, and then watch a

30-minute video. The video by popular Author and Speaker, Fr. Michael Gaitley, brings our individual reflec"ons

and group experience into a clear and manageable focus.

In addi"on, there is a short reading in the “33 Days To Morning Glory” Book to reflect on daily. Each week we

will focus on one of the following Great Marian Giants: St. Louis de Mon*ort, St. Maximillian Kolbe, St. Mother

Teresa, and St. Pope John Paul II. They will teach us the secrets of drawing closer to the Heart of Jesus through

the Heart of Mary.

If you are looking for a simple way to be spiritually renewed, develop a deeper rela"onship with Our Merciful

Savior, and grow in holiness, join us for 33 Days To Morning Glory Small Group Retreat. Please contact Mari at

(847) 596-2150 to register, or if you have any ques"ons.

Eucharis!c

Adora!on –

Why Exposi!on

Of The

Blessed Sacrament? If we can adore the

Eucharis!c presence of Christ when

reposed in a tabernacle, why do we

then need to expose the Blessed

Sacrament on an altar? It is not

essen"al for exposi"on to take place

to have Eucharis"c Adora"on, yet

people report experiencing a greater

sense of in"macy with Jesus, and

a#en"veness of mind and heart to

prayer when they are able to

actually “see” our Eucharis"c Lord.

Moreover, according to Church

regula"ons, exposing the Blessed

Sacrament for a period of "me

requires the presence of a sufficient

number of people to be there, and

therefore, fosters the commitment

needed to establish and sustain a

meaningful Parish Eucharis"c

Adora"on Program. But the best

reason for having exposi"on of the

Blessed Sacrament, is simply that

God wills it. During His Eucharis"c

discourse, Jesus made this

unmistakably clear: “Indeed, this is

the will of My Heavenly Father, that

everyone who looks upon the Son,

and believes in Him, shall have

eternal life. Him I will raise up on

the last day.” (–John 6:40).

Do something special this Fall,

please consider coming to

Eucharis"c Adora"on on Thursdays

at 1PM, where you will have an

opportunity to spend "me with the

Lord Jesus, in the Blessed Sacrament

each week where we can ASK HIM

anything. Come, bring your whole

family, spend some "me with the

Lord, and receive His blessings! He

is wai"ng for you!

“Empathe!c Mercy” By John Michael Talbot “Empathe!c Mercy” is wri#en by John Michael Talbot, who is a bestselling

author and pioneering recording ar"st.

We pray for others from the “bowels of Mercy”. In every major office of the

Liturgy of the Hours, and in the Mass, we include intercessions. All the Greek

words indicate that Mercy means both “sympathy” and an “empathy that is

deeply compassionate.” Having sympathy means to be compassionate from

the outside in. But empathy is something far more. Having empathy means to

be compassionate from the inside out. It means to get right inside the person

we care about, and understand him or her from the inside out. It is “from the

bowels”. But some!mes we do not even understand ourselves, much less others (see Romans 7:15). In his Confessions,

St. Augus!ne says, “you were within me, but I was outside.” Jesus says it is all about love. He says, “Greater love hath

no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are My friends…” (–John 15:13-14).

This is the amazing love of Jesus Christ. This is a real intercession – that God loves us so much that He gave His life

for us personally. From eternity God knows every joy and sorrow, every tragedy and triumph, every laughter and every

tear. It is personal, in!mate, and life-changing! Scripture is filled with asking for and offering prayers for those alive,

and even raising the dead with those prayers. What about praying for the dead? Jesus teaches in the Parable of the

Rich Man and Lazarus that there is no need to communicate with the dead if someone won’t first listen to God, and

those He sent in history. (See Luke 16:19-31). But this is not the same as praying for the departed, and asking departed

Saints to pray for us. This was already a clear part of Judaism in the !me of Christ, and it was the prac!ce of the first

Chris!ans. We know that the catacombs in Rome, which gave a clear window into the worship and beliefs of the

earliest Chris!ans, contain prayers for the dead, and prayers asking

for the intercession of the saintly dead in Christ. The basic belief is

that nothing, neither life nor death, can separate us from the love of

Christ. Our “communion union” as a united people in that love of

Christ cannot be broken even in death. Love defies the limita!ons of

!me and space. —Submi#ed by Irene Halteman
