Bill Musician Schedule: May :30 pm Sienas 7:30 am Cantor 9:00 am Cantor 11:00 am Choir 5:00 pm Life Teen Band Ken's Kaleidoscope May 20, 2018 In the past few weeks I have been wri ng about our parish vision. Parish leaders created this vision to give our parish a common direc on, to guide our decision-making and to help focus our priori es so we can use our resources well. Our vision has one key word, and four bullet points. In the past few weeks I've presented three bullet points: Love God; Grow Disciples; Share the Gospel. Our last bullet point is: Serve the World. When Jesus told a parable about the final judgment, he did not men on the Ten Commandments. What he said was that those who took care of the hungry and thirsty, those who welcomed the stranger and clothed the naked, those who spent me with the sick and the imprisoned those people would inherit the kingdom and eternal life. (Ma hew, Chapter 25) I think our parish knows this one and does it well. The world is a big place, and we know there are lots of needs. Jesus has called us to stretch ourselves beyond our own desires and the needs of our immediate circle of family and friends. They're a nice place to start but not where we end. We also have to stretch ourselves beyond our parish boundaries into the local community. There are lots of opportuni es, whether you like to spend me with people, or do things with your hands. We reach out to people in senior residences, and people in jail. We host 12-step groups for people recovering from various addic ons. We have blood drives and build houses. We offer ministry to migrant farmworkers, conduct food drives, and fill the giving tree. We serve Meals on Wheels and bring food to people recovering from health issues. We read and tutor in schools and at Peace House. We also stretch farther through our special collec ons for people suffering from natural disasters and congoing poverty, for the Church that is growing in Eastern Europe, La n America and Africa, for support of the ministry of the Pope, and care for the people and places of the Holy Land. Parishioners serve through their involvement in the Knights of Columbus, the St. Vincent DePaul Society and Women of the Word. Many more parishioners serve throughout the community as members of charitable organiza ons, par cipa on in schools and government, and promo ng Chris an values by their involvement in poli cal life. Our arms are stretched out to the world when we support Fr. Peter Gregor's ministry in Honduras, our sister parish in El Salvador, and Catholic ministries in Mexico and Kenya. I am reminded that Serving the World does not always mean giving money, though. Serving the world means using our me and our bodies and our skills to serve people. I am reminded of a ques on when I was asked about going to El Salvador, and whether it would be be er just to send the money? The response was, "What would your grandmother say if she were asked whether she would like you to visit her, or prefer you just the send the money you would have spent on airfare?" So the fourth part of our vision is to Serve the World. We use our precious resources of money; me; and blood, sweat, and tears to bring the hands and feet and face of Jesus to people in need. Jesus said, "What you did to my brothers and sisters, even the least ones -- you did it to me." (Ma hew 25:40)

4 PENTECOST SUNDAY PAGE 4 May 20, 2018 Youth Ministry Mission Philip Dezern pdezern@stcatherinesiena.org I DO NOT HAVE A YOUTH, SO WHAT SHOULD I KNOW ABOUT YOUTH MINISTRY? I think this is a common ques on above. I know for a fact that it has been asked many mes in my 20 years of doing youth ministry. Here is why it is important. Data speaks to the fact that a strong youth program will be a springboard for con nued faith ac vity later in life. Youth are both the present and future of the Church. If we do not have show an interest in them now, then there is no Church of the future. Data speaks to the fact that families will go where their youth goes. If we can draw youth into programs and ac vity their families are more likely to a end. So, what does that mean for you if you do or do not have a youth? I want as many adults as possible ac ve as leaders in the program. Contact me to find our more informa on. I want to be able to share about youth ministry with as many people as possible. Contact me and I will take you to lunch or coffee and we can talk about what youth ministry is and how we run it. I want to be able to get to know everyone in the parish to find out about you. So, please reach out to me and we can get together. What should I know about Youth Ministry? As much as possible, and I can help you with that! JUNE 2018 MAY 2019 PROGRAM IS OUT THIS INCLUDES CONFIRMATION INFORMATION If you going to have a 6-12 grader next year please pickup your packet of informa on, Philip to have it ed to you or mailed to you, or have your youth pick it up at the next youth ministry me. We are also looking for more leaders this year in the program. Anyone that has graduated from high school can assist as a leader. Please contact Philip Dezern if interested. WE STILL HAVE ROOM FOR TWO SUMMER ACTIVITIES Contact Philip Dezern to register. Non-parish youth are welcome to a end! There is scholarship money available for those in need.

God as mystery is not something to be figured out; rather, God embraces us, envelopes us, and gently loves us into the fullness of our true being, the being that God created. A mys cal prac ce of prayer that dates back to the earliest days of the Church is Centering Prayer, a form of contempla ve prayer. By choosing a name or image for God, one can sit and breathe this name or image in and out, centering ourselves in God's wonderful mystery, love, and gentleness. This type of prayer is prac ced by millions of Chris ans around the world and in other religions. Centering Prayer is the prayer of s llness and silence that invites us to be fully present to God and to contemplate, or be with, God's presence. As many mys cs and saints have pondered, "Suppose God is not a being but being itself " Contempla ve prayer is an invita on to move towards becoming one with God as Jesus says in John 10:30, "The Father and I are one." Centering Prayer can "center" me in God at the start or close of the day. It can help me move closer to my true self in God. Please join us for an Introduc on to Centering Prayer led by Jay Landry in Trinity Chapel. In each session, Jay will share some background on Centering Prayer, and we will prac ce this way of praying. We will gather on Wednesdays at 10 a.m. or 6:30 p.m. on May 30, June 6, 13, and 20. You are welcome to a end as many sessions as you wish. Please invite a friend or family member.

5 St. Catherine of Siena Catholic Church PAGE 5 Portage, MI RCIA & Adult Faith Forma on Jay Landry jlandry@stcatherinesiena.org St. Catherine Spiritual Renewal Help Us Build It Have you had an encounter with Jesus Christ that melted your heart that inspired you to change how you lived? Once you began to realize how much God loves you and is bending over backwards to save you, did this experience move you to fall in love (again perhaps) with Christ, God the Father, or the Spirit? This is spiritual renewal or conversion: when we engage God in some way and it changes us, filling us with grace and joy that calls us to change our lives, and we change joyfully, because we know that God is calling us to it. Narcia Schutlz-Acker and Jay Landry are developing a spiritual renewal program for our parish around the four pillars of our parish vision statement that are being illustrated in the bulle n and by the videos of Fr. Ken and the parish staff at the end of Sunday Masses. We are asking you, the People of St. Catherine of Siena, to share a bit of your spiritual journey in one dream session to help us build this program, so that we can spiritually renew our parish and all of us can con nue to fall in love with Jesus Christ and follow him more closely to reach the goals of our parish vision. Please consider joining us for one of these Fall in Love dream sessions, like a mini-retreat, where you will have the chance to revisit an encounter with Jesus Christ, God the Father, or the Spirit and how that touched your heart to begin to change your life. A er revisi ng this encounter, we will invite you to dream about the spiritual renewal that you'd like to see happen at St. Catherine. Again, you are invited to a end only one of these sessions. The dates for these "Fall in Love" sessions are below. Please consider a ending one of these sessions. We will start at 6:30 p.m. and be done in about two hours. Wednesday, May 23 Thursday, June 7 Tuesday, June 12 Please RSVP to Narcia at schacker0903@gmail.com or Jay at jlandry@stcatherinesiena.org or to let us know which session you wish to a end.
