“Dwell in My Love” Sunday
January 26, 2003
Prayer of Commitment to End Racism
Dear Lord, help us to search our own hearts and seek
forgiveness and reconciliation for racist
attitudes and beliefs to which we have given
credence in our lives.
Help us not to speak or act in ways that demean our
brothers and sisters.
Help us to speak up and act when we hear or see
racism demonstrated in any way.
Give us the courage as Christian disciples to work to
dismantle racism in the wider community.
Help us to create inclusive, welcoming communities
where we live, work and worship as we pledge to work
to eradicate the sin of racism wherever it exists, in our
hearts, in our church, on our jobs and in our communities.
With your grace, we will dwell together in God’s love
with all of our brothers and sisters.
We make this prayer in Jesus’ name. Amen
Adapted from Pledge to End Racism

Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
After the new statue of St. Ferdinand was
dedicated on November 24, 2002, we initiated a contest among the children of our
school, religious education program and
the Polish Saturday School. The children
were challenged to research the life of St.
Ferdinand, study the statue, and list the
symbols that they found on the statue
with their significance. There was a prize
incentive to the children who correctly identified the
most symbols. Although no one found all the symbols,
there were three children who came very close.
The symbols according to the research of Brother Jerome
L. Cox, F.S.C. the artist who sculpted the statue are:
1. Crown — King
2. Sword — Crusader/soldier (Sword is not being
held by the handle, but rather by the
blade in an offering to God.)
3. Open Book — Scholar
4. Shield — Codifier of the law (the kingdoms of
Castile and Leon)
5. Cowl/Cape — Signifies that he was a third order
Franciscan
6. Saint — Quotations and image of the Most
Blessed Virgin Mary.
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom.”
Proverbs 1:7
Ecclesiasticus 1:20
“Reflect on the Law of the Lord and wisdom will be
given to you.”
Ecclesiasticus 6:37
And the winners are:
First place
— Angela Bucaro
Second place — Edward Supan
Third place
— Michael Lucki
Congratulations to all the winners.

As members of the parish faith
community, it is our responsibility to
remember both in concrete and spiritual
ways those who cannot celebrate with us
each week because they are ill. Those who
are sick in turn, remember all of us daily
in their prayers and in their sufferings. We experience many
blessings because of their remembering us. And so ... please
remember in your prayers:

Our Financial Support of St. Ferdinand Parish
Last weekend the people of St. Ferdinand Parish donated $13,465.70 in the regular collection. This amount is an
increase compared to the previous week, but still short of our weekly goal. Cold weather and other factors affect Mass
attendance, and consequently our offertory collection. We are grateful to all who are doing their fair share, and we
encourage everyone to be conscious of their weekly or monthly stewardship in support of our mission here at St.
Ferdinand Church. We depend upon your generosity, and we thank you for your ongoing support.

Every now and then, every person’s heart needs a good
shower. Every time we hurt someone or someone hurts us,
it leaves a mark on our hearts. As the days, weeks, and
years of our life begin to pass, our hearts
become covered with the “dust” that is comprised of these hurtful things kept inside. We
try to cover it up, putting on a “happy face”
hoping that nobody else will notice. Then,
maybe after a particularly difficult day at work,
we find ourselves suddenly lashing out at others for no particular reason. It has become too
difficult to keep it all inside. Our heart has become so
overcome with hurt and despair that we lose sight of the
true meaning in our lives. What we all need to do occasionally is to cleanse our heart with some sort of “spiritual
shower” that can erase these marks of hurt from our spirit,
renewing us in the Father’s Love.
If you would like to experience the invigorating renewal
that Jesus Christ has waiting for you, look no further than
your very own parish. It is with great enthusiasm and hope
that all men of St. Ferdinand Parish are invited to experience the joy and power of the CRHP weekend. This miniretreat (held at our very own parish) is an
opportunity to re-ignite the burning passion
for our faith! A combination of faith sharing,
affirmation, prayer, and thanksgiving, is a
Christ centered experience that will change
the way you look at the Father, your family,
and perhaps your own life.
CRHP is an experience like none other. If being a Catholic
has become more of a habit than a joyous, enthusiastic
experience, then please consider joining us on our next
weekend — February 8-9, 2003. This is your FINAL
CHANCE to sign up for the CRHP Weekend, do not let
this golden opportunity for renewal pass you by. Contact
Ron Pasko at 773-636-1299 (or 773-637-6929) for more
details. Remember, a moment can change your mind; a
weekend can change your life.

The 1973 Supreme Court decision on Roe vs. Wade has been disastrous for our nation. Based on a complete disregard for
human rights and enshrined for almost 30 years in false logic and rhetoric, that decision, more than any other in our recent
history, has been responsible for blinding our national conscience to the truth about our God-given rights to life, liberty and
the pursuit of happiness. The statement before us this week, “A Matter of the Heart,” reflects on the impact of Roe vs Wade,
calls again — in the name of truth and justice — for that ruling to be overturned, and expresses the gratitude of the bishops
to all those who have kept the truth about human life alive. Our prophetic persistence in preaching the Gospel of Christ on
this issue cannot but allow falsity to give way to the truth, and truth to bring rightful comfort to the unborn.
—Presidential Address by Bishop Wilton Gregory, November 2002 Meeting of the USCCB

RESERVATION FORM
Contribution Statements
In the past, many parishes (including
ourselves) mailed out contribution statements at the end of every year. We have
found, however, that due to certain changes in IRS tax
laws and other circumstances, most people no longer
need the information found on these statements. Because
of this, and also the high cost of postage, we will NOT be
sending them out once again this year.
If you still need a contribution statement, please call
the rectory, Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m.
to 4:00 p.m. to request one and to arrange a time and
date that you will pick it up. Statements will be printed by request only.

CENTRUM KOBIET
22 stycznia 30 lat zalegalizowania aborcji.Pocz¹tkowo aborcja
mia³a byæ dokonywana “rzadko i tylko w wyj¹tkowych wypadkach”. Ale od 1973 roku dokonywano aborcji na ponad 46
milionach dzieci. Œrednio ka¿dego dnia morduje siê
ponad 4,000 nienarodzonych. Wiele kobiet cierpi na
razleg³e komplikacje poaborcyjne tzw. “syndrom
poaborcyjny”. The Women’s Center jest miejscem
gdzie ka¿dego roku udzielamy pomocy oko³o 5,000
kobietom i ich rodzinom. W trudnych sytuacjach
pomagamy im wybraæ inne rozwi¹zanie zamiast
aborcji. Ofiarujemy pomoc materialn¹, fachow¹
poradê, tak¿e poradê dla kobiet, które cierpi¹
w wyniku dokonanej aborcji, otaczamy przyjaŸni¹
i wspieramy modlitw¹. Dziêki naszej pracy ¿yje oko³o

TACA NIEDZIELNA
W zesz³ym tygodniu parafianie ofiarowali na tacê $13,465.70. Suma ta wzros³a w porównaniu z poprzedni¹ sk³adk¹, ale jest
wci¹¿ ni¿sza od wyznaczonego celu. Niska temperatura i inne czynniki maj¹ wp³yw na frekwencjê podczas Mszy œw. co w rezultacie powoduje spadek sumy niedzielnej sk³adki. Jesteœmy wdziêczni wszystkim, którzy materialnie wspieraj¹ dzia³alnoœæ Koœcio³a
i zachêcamy pozosta³ych, aby i oni równie¿ w³¹czyli siê w cotygodniowe utrzymanie naszej parafii œw. Ferdynada. Funkcjonowanie
naszej misji jest zale¿ne od waszej hojnoœci. Sk³adamy sredeczne “Bóg zap³aæ” za systematyczne utrzymywanie naszej parafii.

Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
Page Nine
ORDINARY TIME
by Paul Turner
Ordinary Time, the longest portion of the church
year, fills the weeks which do not celebrate a specific aspect of the mystery of Christ. It's the noparticular-reason season. The Christmas cycle honors the birth of Christ. The Easter cycle rejoices in
the resurrection. Ordinary Time is devoted to the
mystery of Christ in all its aspects.
The number of the weeks of Ordinary Time replaces the
old counting of weeks after Epiphany and after Pentecost.
The old calendar suggested that Pentecost ran for six
months. The new calendar gives Pentecost a day. Then we
return to Ordinary Time.
At first glance the principles of Ordinary Time seem basic
enough. Start counting the weeks after the Christmas season. Break for Lent and Easter. Resume after Pentecost
and keep counting until Advent. Basically, that's how it
works. But we have a few quirks.
For example, there is no First Sunday of Ordinary Time;
however, there is a first week. Usually the Christmas season ends on a Sunday with the Baptism of the Lord. (Some
years, the Baptism falls on a Monday, but that's another
story.) Ordinary Time then begins on a weekday. When the
next Sunday rolls around we start Week Two.
On the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday, we see
the last of Ordinary Time until after Pentecost.
Even then, it emerges only on weekdays. Trinity
Sunday always follows Pentecost Sunday, and
The Body and Blood of the Lord comes the next
Sunday in the United States. (In countries where
The Body and Blood of the Lord is a holy day, it falls on a
Thursday.) So when the numbered Sundays of Ordinary
Time return in summer, we start out a little higher than
when we left off.
Sometimes we skip one or two entire weeks of Ordinary
Time during the Easter break. We want to close the
Sundays of the year with Christ the King, one week before
Advent. Christ the King always falls on the 34th Sunday
of Ordinary Time. So, we determine the week number
after Pentecost not based on where we left off before Lent
but counting backward from Christ the King. One or two
weeks may evaporate while Ordinary Time serves the
mystery of Christ.
