BLESSED TRINITY PARISH CLEVELAND, OH
From Carol’s Desk…
Renewal: What’s the Take-Away?
In October, some members of our community
participated in the first Blessed Trinity Renewal. For
about 25 hours we shared space in a transformed section
of our school, West Park Catholic Academy. During
this time we ate together, we listened and were listened
to, and we shared many opportunities of prayer. While
some went home for the night due to childcare or health
issues, those able to stay the night spent quiet time in
the chapel or found themselves in conversation with
other retreat participants. And yes, some even made
time to sleep.
After the weekend, the team gathered to evaluate the
renewal retreat and someone mentioned that they
thought the “take-aways” were a nice touch. Possibly
they meant the white plastic spoon with an orange
ribbon tied around the handle or a brown, sealed
envelope adorned with a sticker. Or maybe they were
referring to the small notebook containing a prayer they
wrote or a scribbled thought or the name of a person
they just met. In any case, folks took home memories
and a few tangible items, too. (I am hopeful no one took
home an extra pound from the “5 star” home-cooked
meals and snacks!)
In later weeks, participants and team prayed together
and reflected on the experience. Some wrote down their
reflections and others shared them verbally. Mary
Gladys wrote that her “hope before the renewal was to
connect with people at Blessed Trinity.” She found “it
to be a good two days” but admits to being pretty tired
by Sunday! As I listened to or read the reflections, I was
struck by the comments that indicated significant
connections were made between people. Over and over
again, I heard or read comments affirming this. These
statements described experiences that “touched the
heart” and resulted in the sense that “connections were
real between people.” “We shared hearts!” one person
exclaimed. “There was a feeling of connection to the
church and God that I had not felt in years,” explained
Trudy Bouch. “It was a feeling of belonging to
something bigger than myself or my family.” Yet
another person summed it up perfectly by exclaiming,
“God touched my heart!” And Vincent McChrystal’s
big smile betrayed his enthusiasm for the experience.
Katie Corbett’s reflection reminded me that the
connecting process began as the team came together to
prepare for this first renewal. She noticed that our
Disciple of the Week
This week we take the time to thank Don Hartmiller for
his dedicated service as an usher at the 11:00am Mass.
Don has been involved in this ministry since the day our
new parish began. Since the 11:00am Mass is the most
attended, he has his work cut out for him — getting peo-
ple to help take the collection, operating the chair lift, se-
curing people to bring up the gifts, and making sure the
collection gets to the money counters. Don does this min-
istry quietly and efficiently. You hardly notice that he is
there. Thanks, Don, for sharing your gifts with us all.
different backgrounds and histories melted away in
this process. “Conversations expanded beyond meet-
ing times, overflowing into the parking lot, the church
and even to invitations to visit one another’s homes.”
Some were surprised to be on the team. Emma Shock-
ley resisted at least three invitations before she arrived
at a planning meeting, all the while keeping her eye on
the door! She did remain and goes on to describe her
experience. “The preparation meetings were a Renew-
al of my experience of church. Those faces at the
meetings began to form is my mind as very real.”
In reading and listening to the reflections of the
people with whom I spent those 25 hours, I thought
about those “take-aways” again. Perhaps the true take-
away is learning to walk with people who once wor-
shipped in different places with different identities.
Perhaps it is BEING CHURCH together – BEING the
BODY OF CHRIST at Blessed Trinity Parish. And
perhaps it’s helpful to have a white plastic spoon with
an orange ribbon tied around the handle to help us re-
member our membership in this Mystical Body.
Join us for the next renewal on March 9-10!

BLESSED TRINITY BOOK CLUB READ FOR FEBRU-
ARY is Zeitoun by Dave Eggers. Pick up a copy and join
us for great conversation on Thursday, February 23,
7:00pm in the St. Joseph Center. The New York Times
Book Review comments: "In Zeitoun, what Dave Eggers
has found in the Katrina mud is the full-fleshed story of a
single family, and in telling that story he hits larger targets
with more punch than those who have already attacked
the thematic and historic giants of this disaster. It ’s the
stuff of great narrative nonfiction."
LOST AND FOUND items have been placed in the main
entrance area. If you are missing mittens, gloves, hats,
and especially children’s wear, please check today for your
lost articles. The Lost and Found contents will be emptied
soon.
CONGRATULATIONS to Honor Roll students at Holy
Name High School: Eric Norton, Kelsi Martin, Michael Set-
ta, Destiny Stout, Claire Kudravy and Kevin MacLeod and

nue and Brian Redmon. Congratulations also to Ashley
French who is on the Dean’s List at Gannon University.
