Page Two St. Eugene Parish Fifth Sunday of Easter

From the Pastor’s Desk…

Today we celebrate the Fifth Sunday of Easter. As you are reading this column, let’s hope it’s gotten a little warmer as I think we’re all ready for an end to the cold and rain. I’d like to congratulate our 8th graders who received their “Ribbons” at a Mass and ceremony a week ago last Wednesday. We also had our school’s May Crowning Ceremony on Friday, May 10th which was both a tribute to Our Blessed Mother and an honor for our eighth graders who participated in the May Crowning Court of Honor. These events are all part of the end-of-the-school-year transition process for them as they prepare to take leave from grammar school while making their way to high school – a time we all remember fondly. It won’t be long now before they will be celebrating their 8th Grade Dinner Dance and then Graduation. Congratulations, Class of 2019!

***************

By now most of us are aware of a fundraising effort known as the “Queen of Hearts Raffle”. It has become extremely popular because the prize-pool has the potential to grow rapidly from week to week. Because the prize pool is split 50/50 with both our school and the winner - both benefit. The reason we are beginning this fundraising effort is to help offset the over $250,000 our parish annually provides to operate our school. Whether you are a school family, parent, St. Eugene parishioner or not, neighbor, relative, visitor etc.…all have the potential of benefiting from this endeavor. So, please consider supporting this fundraising effort that will both help benefit our school, our parish and the winner as well. The Raffle is a relatively straight-forward game that is based on a board that holds a poker deck of 54 cards (including the 2 Jokers) that are randomly placed face down on the board in rows and numbered 1 -54. Players (must be 18 years or older) buy raffle tickets each week for $5 per ticket (cash only). On the raffle ticket the player will write their name, telephone number, and a number between 1 and 54. These tickets will ultimately be placed in the secured drawing drum. There can be only one name per ticket. One raffle ticket gets pulled from the drum on Monday nights at 9:00 pm at the Draft Bar located at 8221 W. Irving Park Rd. in Chicago. If your ticket is drawn and it is not the Queen of Hearts and you are present for the drawing you will win $100. Your card is then also turned face-up on the game board so that it’s number will not be available to be picked for the next week’s draw. If the Queen of Hearts playing card is behind the corresponding number on the raffle ticket that the player chose, the raffle ticket holder is a winner and wins 50% of the total pot minus the minimal operating expenses (Cost of playing board and tickets). The Queen of Hearts winner does not need to be present for the drawing to win. If the card drawn each week is not the Queen of Hearts, the game rolls over to the following week and the prize grows. After each drawing, all tickets for that week’s drawing will be destroyed and a new game begins. Also, if one of the Jokers is behind the corresponding number on the raffle stub, the game board is ended, and a new board will be stated for the next draw. The person who drew the Joker Card will still win $100, if they are present for the drawing.

May 19, 2019 St. Eugene Parish Page Three

The total prize pool will continue to accumulate weekly until the Queen of Hearts card is drawn. The jackpot amount, based on ticket sales, will be updated and displayed at Draft Bar. Updates will also be posted on St. Eugene’s School and St. Eugene Parish-Chicago Facebook page as well as the St. Eugene Sunday Bulletin and Website so that you will know which numbers on the corresponding cards have already been picked from week to week. Raffle tickets will be sold every day at the Draft Bar located at 8221 W. Irving Park Rd., Chicago. We will also be selling tickets at both the School and Parish Offices during regular operating hours and, hopefully, on the weekends after Masses in the vestibule. Please help to make this the successful fundraising effort that it has the potential of becoming by your support and participation. More information will be forthcoming with regard to our start-up date which should be in a week or two.

***************

Just a reminder that on Monday, May 27th, our nation celebrates Memorial Day. Our Morning Mass time this day will be at 9:00 a.m. If you are able, perhaps you might plan on starting this day off with your fellow parishioners as we honor and give thanks for all the many men and women, living and deceased, who have served our country so valiantly to preserve the freedoms we so much value as American Citizens. I also hope that this weekend that is often looked at as the unofficial start to summer will be a time for all in our parish to get out and enjoy some rest, relaxation, time spent with family and/or friends or perhaps even a barbeque. I wish you all a Happy Holiday.

*************** Today we welcome Michael Rossi from The Italian Catholic Federation who will be speaking at all of our masses as they are looking to re-establish a branch here at St. Eugene. There will be information tables in the back of church in the vestibule as well as some hospitality. The ICF encourages and promotes faith renewal, apostolic and charitable works, heritage, and, social activities in the parish. It is a family organization open to membership of all Catholics from all cultures and all ages. In the beginning, the ICF provided a spiritual and cultural path for Italian Immigrants to the American way of life, and now, reaches out to all to support parish programs and local charities. Please stop by and pick up the information that will be available today. Members of the ICF will be there to answer your question. You can also visit their website: www.icf.org. If you were not able to be at Mass this weekend you can find out more by contacting Teresa Helfan at 773-771-0728. With all those of Italian decent here at St. Eugene’s, I am hoping you will take advantage of this opportunity to join a social group that will not only bring you together but also help out our parish. And remember….you do not need to be Italian to join ICF!! Fr. Rich

FAMILY MASS

FEATURING THIRD GRADE 9:30 AM MASS

MISSIONARIES OF MERCY Paul’s back! A er last week’s “violent abuse,” opponents organized a lynch mob that beat Paul nearly to death. But call Paul the “energizing evangelist,” transforming deadly cruelty into life-giving zeal. Paul’s past courage should inspire our commitment; Revela on’s future “new heaven, new earth” should inspire our op mism. But Revela on’s present assurance, “Behold, God’s dwelling is with the human race,” should challenge us to become “missionaries of mercy.” Because Pope Francis declared that the Church’s credibility is completely dependent on our showing uncondi onal mercy. Mercy, said Francis, makes the Church, the world, and everyone young again, reawakened to life’s noblest virtues. Fi ngly, in today’s Gospel Jesus reinforces that theme: “This is how all will know you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co.

Prayer with Scripture

We invite you to an encounter of prayer where you can stop from the hurry of the moment and listen to God through God’s Word, in silence, meditation, ad-oration and contemplation. In this short but intense time, we listen to a talk that introduces us into the understanding of the Word of God, which later, we reflect on and meditate in an attitude of faith, discov-ering what God is trying to reveal to us. The prayer is accompanied by the exposition of the Blessed Sacrament with songs to help the faithful enter more into prayer.

By His Eucharistic presence,

Christ dwells in our midst. Out of love He has enriched

the Church with His unceasing presence. As God in former days dwelt in the temple

of Jerusalem, He now lives in our churches and chapels. He invites us to remain in close

contact with Him. Through Eucharistic Adoration we concentrate

our attention on Him as we yield to the fascination of His invisible gaze.

Opening our hearts, we entrust all our petitions to Him.

Jean Galot, S.J.

PLEASE COME — VISIT JESUS

PEOPLE OF THE CROSS UNITED We are all members of the Body of Christ. If one member suffers, all members suffer.

He enlightens us, but never blinds us.

ST. EUGENE SCHOOL IS STILL COLLECTING BOX TOPS

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Frequent fliers today have many ways to accrue air miles, so one doesn’t always have to endure long hours in cramped seats to earn free hours in cramped seats. In St. Paul’s day, there were no such perks, nor would there have been any legal system for him to protest the shipwrecks he endured. He had other rewards in mind. The churches that he established in the catalogue of ci es from today’s first reading must have been very different from one another. Language, culture, customs, religious history, obstacles to community, social challenges, the places where they met, their clothing, their bread and wine, all dis nct, par cular to the area. There were social customs as well: in a Chris an household, the only place where a slave would be able to stand legally as an equal with the master would be at the table of the Lord, because at that table a new world of reconcilia on was imaged. While Paul revered local customs, he was relentless about challenging the ways that people lived their Chris an lives and how their worship reflected them. It is much the same today, as a global Catholic Church seeks to respect local customs and culture, allowing for differences in many things, yet always giving expression to the underlying presence of Christ, who binds us all together into his body. —James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

If you have large pieces of furniture you wish to donate you may call SVDP at: 773-779-6700.

A different kind of glory When we think of glory, we often think of some-thing splashy and bright. The last thing we would think of is a cross. Yet that is exactly what Jesus tells us in today’s reading. The glory of God is the cross of Christ. In the cross, Jesus shares his peoples struggles through the hurricanes of life. In the cross, Jesus stands in the cloud of suffering with us. It doesn’t sound like any glory we’re used to. It doesn’t shine with acclaim, honor or adulation. In-stead, this glory glows with the fire of God's love for the world. This is the “splendor veritatis,” the “shining of the truth,” which lights our world until Jesus comes again.

to please contact the rectory office to give us the name of the soldier, so the

OUR MISSION STATEMENT

Our mission as Catholics united in faith at St. Eugene Parish is to help bring God to people and people to God. Through evangelization, education and being of service to each other, we strive to make our parish community a holistic community in body, mind and spirit. It is our goal to develop, support, encourage and empower one another in our parish ministries, so that each person can reach their human and Christian po-tential. We are enthused about the future of St. Eugene and the whole Catholic Church and we pledge our participation in that future. We seek dialogue and open communication with all parishioners in fulfilling the needs of our parish. While recognizing the cultural diversities in our community, we will strive to bring all people together in Christ under a common bond of faith, hope and love.
