Page Two Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time CHURCH IMPROVEMENTS A Restoration of Original Statues The word RESTORATION conjures up levels of meaning. It can be described as reinstatement, revival, return to the original state, putting back in place, redemption and even a renaissance. But there is one thing that a dictionary or thesaurus cannot describe - - the experience of restoration. It is an experience akin to finding something lost, misplaced or hidden. It is an experience like finding a Rembrandt underneath a mediocre landscape. It is an experience of taking grandma s old lamp to Antiques Roadshow and being told it s a Tiffany worth thousands! Beyond these simple analogies, I think of the restoration of Warsaw s Old Town. It had been 89% destroyed by the Nazis. A meticulous process of studying old paintings and original blueprints, expert craftsmanship and a desire to resurrect monuments to national identity proved nothing less than miraculous. That was RESTORATION! When we look at Church renovations of the past fifty years, they have rarely involved restoration. Some were vandalism - - tearing out really beautiful altars and images. I recall a magnificent Gothic Revival Church by Augustus Welby Pugin in Ireland that had been gutted to make room for burlap banners, artificial ivy and kitchen kitsch. It reminded me of an old woodcut of Protestant reformers chopping up a sanctuary - - removing the altar and communion rail for an oversized-solitary pulpit. What Cromwell failed to accomplish, contemporary church designers and overzealous clergy were ready to supply. But not everyone was so eager to rid churches of representational art - - statues, paintings, and crucifixes. Some of these artifacts were destined for the church basement or meeting rooms. Others were made more aesthetically acceptable with a coat of varnish or spray paint. Why did this happen? I believe there have been two competing Catholic philosophies - - one emphasizing evolution (if not revolution) and the other continuity. The presumption of the first philosophy is that change is progress what is new is true. In this view, a real break from the past is desirable and necessary. Such an attitude lends itself to iconoclasm, whether it is tastefully minimalist or crudely disrespectful and destructive. The philosophy of continuity, on the other hand, preserves what is beautiful and best in the old. An exquisite chalice from the 19th century or windows of Innsbruck Art Glass can be functional and edifying even in a mostly modernized church. Pope Benedict XVI is an eloquent and bold example of one who advocates continuity, whether in theology or Church art and music. He wears vestments from his predecessors, Pius IX, Leo XIII, and Pius XII. Altar decorations harmonize with the architecture and interior design of Michelangelo and Bernini. His Holiness is 85 years old, but he is definitely a trendsetter. I am sure that is of little concern to him because continuity eschews trends. It rises above fashion and the caprices of culture. Our reflection on Restoration and the philosophy of continuity brings me to another proposal for Church Improvement - - the restoration and relocation of the statues of the Blessed Virgin and St. Joseph presently in the Holy Family Room. They are a part of the living history of St. Isaac Jogues. They were focal points of our original Church. They seem sadly in exile at the threshold of two worlds - - that of prayer and social gathering. They seem to belong to neither world. When I say I suggest these images be restored I mean that they should be carefully stripped and artistically poly-chromed and then be honored in the Church. I propose a small Lady Chapel where the present baptismal font and grotto are.
Page Three Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time I also propose that St. Joseph be honored where the bas relief of the Holy Family is now. That bas relief could be relocated on the wall behind the Baptismal Font (the present chapel area). The motto of the great Pope St. Pius X was taken from the Epistles of St. Paul: Restoring all things in Christ (Ephesians 1,10) so that Christ may be all in all. (Colossians 3,2) In our worship as in our service, the motto of Pope St. Pius X remains a positive challenge to embrace the continuity of our Catholic heritage and express our faith which may be ever new, but never less than the Faith of Our Fathers. -Fr. Luczak If you have a question that is relevant to Church Improvement, please submit in writing. Drop it in the Rectory mailbox. Remember that your views are important in the decision process. What we have are facts, expert opinions, a projection of costs, and a good plan. What we do not have is a decision. The Feast of the Assumption The Earth Is in Heaven The doctrine of Mary s bodily assumption into heaven holds a lesson which we still must learn to understand and integrate into our way of being: Mother earth has been returned to the heavens. As in the incarnation, when the heavens were mated to the earth, now the earth is reunited to the heavens. The earth, in fact, is in heaven. Earth and heaven, matter and spirit, time and eternity, feminine and masculine can no longer be divided against each other. Precisely as earthly, not as goddess, but as a human, as a person, as woman, as material, as bodily (quite like ourselves!), as mortal but incorruptible, she completes and makes whole the Trinity by adding the fourth, forgotten element. She is queen of heaven, but not a goddess. Jung said, This results in a kind of quaternity which always signifies totality, while the triad is rather a process, but never the natural division of the circle, the natural symbol of wholeness. The quaternity as union of the Three seem to be aimed at by the Assumption of Mary. This dogma adds the feminine element to the masculine Trinity, the terrestrial element to the spiritual, and thus sinful man to the Godhead. Here opposing factors are once again reunited and made equal in value. Masculine and feminine, heaven and earth, body and soul, are not alike in nature but are equal in value. That dogma, though few were awake to its meaning, marked the beginning of a new age of understanding and integrity: for the validation of women in particular, for the feminine in the personality and development of men, for all aspects of the feminine factor in human life and experience wherever it is to be found. This dogma offers significant insight and implication for the unity of human experience. The Prophet The prophets, misunderstood With a crown of thorns And a double-edged sword The Word, they must proclaim In kindness, love, and truth Bravely, against popular beliefs To bear Christ s light and Spirit To speak God s message: Live the gospel, now is the time -Deacon Rod Taken from TO DANCE WITH GOD, by Gertrud Mueller Nelson
Page Four Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time ASSUMPTION MASSES SPIRITUAL LIFE Masses for the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a Holy Day of Obligation, will be at 8 a.m. and 7 p.m. this Wednesday, August 15 th. Liturgical ministers are asked to sign up in the sacristy if you are available to help at one of these Masses. PRAY FOR OUR NATION From now until the November election the Patriotic Rosary will be prayed for our nation every Friday night at 7:00 p.m. in Church. All are welcome and encouraged to invite others to join in this time of prayer for God s grace, blessing and guidance. OUR LADY OF KNOCK MASS The Feast of Our Lady of Knock will be celebrated at Mass on Tuesday, August 21 st, at 7:00 p.m. Father Andrew Luczak will preside and Fr. Richard Conyers, CSC, will give the homily with music led by Lisa Hall and Katie O Shea on the harp. Everyone is invited to come, pray and hear the story of the appearance of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, and St. John the Evangelist outside the gable wall at the church in Knock, County Mayo, Ireland, in 1879. Refreshments will be served in the Holy Family Room following the Mass. If you would like to provide a bread (Irish soda, zucchini, date nut, etc.), scones, or cookies for the reception, we will thankfully welcome your gift! Please call the Religious Education Office at 847/966-1180 this week and let us know. Thank you! OUR LADY OF CZESTOCHAWA MASS The Feast of Our Lady of Czestochawa will be celebrated Sunday, August 26 th, beginning with the Noon Mass. There will be a reading and a few petitions in the Polish language and members of the Lira Singers will help with some of the music. All are welcome to be part of the celebration, which includes refreshments in the Holy Family Room following the Mass. RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is a process for people who are seeking, or desiring to deepen, a relationship with Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church. If you or someone you know have never been baptized, are a baptized Christian but want to learn how the Catholic Church lives its life in Christ, or are a baptized Catholic but have not received Confirmation and First Communion, we invite you to come and learn about the process at an RCIA Information Night, which will be held on Thursday, August 23 at 7 p.m. in the Religious Education Office. Come and see what the RCIA is about and know that there is no commitment on your part because you seek information. Members of the parish who just want to learn about the RCIA process are also welcome. Please call Dee Stanton at 847/966-1180 if you plan to come. YEAR OF SUNDAY MASS Jesus says that whoever eats the bread of life will never die. He extends that promise to us in each Mass we celebrate. The Fathers of the Church called the Eucharist the medicine of immortality. Having shared in this bread of life in the Mass across the years, how will I someday face my own death? KNOW THE MASS, ONE WORD AT A TIME: PREPARE The gifts at Mass are prepared. Often, a family will walk up the church aisle with the gifts of bread and wine to be used in the Eucharist and offer them to the priest who, in turn, prepares them on the altar. In fact, other gifts are prepared well before the Mass begins. At home, we prepare a check and put it into a church envelope. It is an offering and we prepare it. with a little prayer or a silent moment, we might even prepare our own hearts and souls for the Mass we will celebrate together. United with Jesus we are part of the offering of the Mass. And we do need our own preparation. The Mass has its rituals of preparation, and we have our own personal rituals of preparation for the Mass. But the Mass itself is a great preparation of God s people to meet the Lord face to face. Our worship shares in the mission of John the Baptist which is described as making ready a people prepared for the Lord (Luke 1:17).

Pontian and Hippolytus St. Maximilian Kolbe The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary St. Stephen of Hungary Blessed Virgin Mary; Eid al-fit r (Islamic feast of the conclusion of Ramadan) celebrated this week TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION This week will see the summertime celebration of the Transfiguration of the Lord. The story of the Transfiguration is proclaimed twice each year; once on the Second Sunday of Lent, and then again on August 6. In Lent, the revelation of Jesus glory foreshadows the triumph of Easter. During the summer, this feast comes significantly forty days before the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. In the Gospel proclaimed on this day, Peter wants to know if he should build three tents. In Hebrew, the tents are sukkot, rickety harvest shacks also called in English tabernacles (from the Latin word for little shelters ) that harvesters set up in fields so they can stay there to work day and night. Harvest booths are built and ornamented for the Jewish festival of Sukkot. One aspect of this festival is eager anticipation for the ingathering of all peoples (including ancestors Moses and Elijah) under God s own sukkot shalom, the tent of peace. In some patristic traditions, the late summer and early autumn of the church year are imagined as an extended ingathering festival that begins today and reaches fulfillment at Epiphany.

For their family, friends, and faith community it is often times the best, and sometimes even only, way we can help and support them. Yet we must remember that by law we cannot publicly let our parish community know the health status of any of our members without their permission. What that means is that we cannot put people s names in the bulletin sick list for prayer without permission. As a reminder our policy is as follows: Names for the sick list in the bulletin have to be called in by the person who is ill or by a member of their family. At the time they call in the name they will be asked whether they are the sick person him/herself, or a member of their family and if they give permission for the name to be placed on the list. They will be asked for the correct spelling of the sick person s name. If a family member, they will be required to give their name for our records. The name will be in the bulletin for one month. The 2013 Mass Book is now available. Anyone wishing to reserve Masses for loved ones or special intentions may do so. Please note: We will take only one intention for each liturgy. We suggest a $10.00 stipend for each Mass. According to the Code of Canon Law 948: Separate Masses must be applied for the intentions of those for whom an individual offering, even if small, has been made and accepted. What is normative in the practice of the Church is that there be separate individual Masses offered for individual intentions.
