Jadwigo, módl się za nami. Santa Eduviges, ruega por nosotros. ARCHDIOCESE OF CHICAGO Administered by the Resurrection Fathers and Brothers. Celebrating 121 years in the Bucktown Community. 2 NOTES AND EVENTS October - Respect life Month This is truly the work of God. God cannot leave the crime unpunished: from the ground on which it has been spilt, the blood of the one murdered demands that God should render justice (cf. Gn 37:26; Is 26:21; Ez 24:7-8). From this text the Church has taken the name of the ‘sins which cry to God for justice’, and, first among them, she has included wilful murder. For the Jewish people, as for many peoples of antiquity, blood is the source of life. Indeed ‘the blood is the life’ (Dt 12:23), and life, especially human life, belongs only to God: for this reason whoever attacks human life, in some way attacks God himself. (The Gospel of Life [Evangelium Vitae], no. 9) “CATHOLICS COME HOME “ RETURNS WITH MAJOR MULTI-MEDIA EVANGELIZATION APPROACH The Archdiocese of Chicago announced today, August 12, 2010, that the evangelization initiative, Catholics Come Home Chicago, would return in December for a second year on local television stations and in parishes throughout Cook and Lake counties. After a positive response to last year's efforts, new commercials, combined with various other media, will bring the welcome message to all people, especially Catholics who have drifted from the practice of their faith. ADVERTISING SALES WEEK Attention Business Owners, Professionals and Self Employed Liturgical Publications, Inc. (LPi), our bulletin publisher, will have Steve Puchalski our parish representative visiting our parish within the next few weeks to service our bulletin. We would like to thank our present advertisers for renewing their ad and thereby continuing their support of our parish. For those interested in placing a new ad, this is your opportunity. Our Sunday bulletin is a primary way we use to communicate with you. Through our arrangement with the Liturgical Publications, the parish does not pay for the bulletin printing, which saves us thousands of dollars every year. Our bulletin is supported through the generosity of the advertisers—many of whom are our own parish members or members of our local community. During these difficult economic times, please support our advertisers with your patronage. Tell the business owner that you appreciate their support of our parish through their advertising in the bulletin. This is one small way we can work within our own community to weather these challenging times. A strong and vibrant parish is good for our community and a strong business community is good for our parish.

CHOIR PRACTICE: Every Wednesday at 7:30 PM in the Church CORO: Español: Todos los Miercoles en el basement del convento. Say the Rosary every day… Pray, pray a lot and offer sacrifices for sinners... I'm Our Lady of the Rosary. Only I will be able to help you. ...In the end My Immaculate Heart will triumph." Our Lady at Fatima CHILDREN OF FATIMA: Ist Saturday of the month 4 PM in the Convent Mass at 5:00 P.M. T he word Rosary means "Crown of Roses". Our Lady has revealed to several people that each time they say a Hail Mary they are giving her a beautiful rose and that each complete Rosary makes her a crown of roses. The rose is the queen of flowers, and so the Rosary is the rose of all devotions and it is therefore the most important one. The Holy Rosary is considered a perfect prayer because within it lays the awesome story of our salvation. With the Rosary in fact we meditate the mysteries of joy, of sorrow and the glory of Jesus and Mary. It's a simple prayer, humble so much like Mary. It's a prayer we can all say together with Her, the Mother of God. With the Hail Mary we invite Her to pray for us. Our Lady always grants our request. She joins Her prayer to ours. Therefore it becomes ever more useful, because what Mary asks She always receives, Jesus can never say no to whatever His Mother asks for.

St. Hedwig - our Patroness St. Hedwig of Andechs was born in Bavaria in 1174 and died on October 15, 1243. She was a Duchess of Silesia and one of the eight children born to the Count of Andechs and Duke of Croatia and Dalmatia, Berthold IV. Hedwig had her education at the monastery of Kitzengen and was married to Henry I of Silesbia at the age of twelve. Henry I succeeded his father Boleslo as Duke of Silesia. The union of Henry and Hedwig brought the Duke closer relations to Germany, since his mother was German and he was educated in that country. Their reign rendered inportant services to civilization in the realm; Henry I, as an energetic prince who established his authority on a firm basis, and Hedwig exercised her great influence in the government of the land through her prudence, fortitude, and piety. The couple gave their support to new monastic foundations, including, among many, the convent of the Cistercian nuns at Trebnitz in 1202. She is known as the patron of brides, death of children, difficult marriages, victims of jealousy, widows and duchesses. She is considered the patron Saint of Bavaria, Berlin, Germany, the diocese of Gorlitz, Germany and Silesia.

Retreat will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m. FOCUS ON THE WORD 29th SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME This Sunday we hear about another aspect of prayer: persistence, not growing weary, but keeping at it. Persistence also applies to the Mass. If the Mass is the highest form of prayer, We must keep at it - weekly or even daily. The life and writings of St. Francis illustrate persistent prayer, including the Eucharist. This year I have been making a study of St. Francis in preparation for our World Youth Day pilgrimage to Rome, Assisi and Madrid. St. Francis left behind few writings, but the authentic works that we do have show the centrality of the Eucharist in his life. For example, Francis wrote a short letter to his fellow clerics (he was a deacon himself). In the letter he says, "In this world we have and see nothing corporally of the Most High except his Body and Blood."* These are words of man who treasured the Eucharist - and who was disturbed that so many took the Eucharist lightly. Francis life centered on the Body and Blood of Christ.** That St. Francis received the Eucharist regularly can be seen in his "Prayer Inspired by the Our Father." He gives a beautiful explanation of each phrase of the Lord's Prayer. But when he comes to "Our Daily Bread" he says simply, "Your Own Beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ." That is the daily bread we should also desire - Jesus, truly present in the Eucharist. So, St. Francis´ life illustrates this Sunday's Gospel: to pray with persistence - and the most basic prayer is the Eucharist. As Francis says, the Eucharist is the one place where we corporally see and have the Most High. Like Francis we desire the Father's own Beloved Son be Our Daily Bread. Amen.

Dios acepta y reconoce que como ser humano tendré tentaciones y que algunas veces caigo en ellas, ya sea de pensamiento, de palabra, de omisión o de acción, pero lo más importante es saber que el siempre está dispuesto y con los brazos abiertos esperando nuestro arrepentimiento y total disponibilidad de tener un cambio en él y con él. Pero nada de esto se puede obtener sin una comunicación con él, ¿y cómo comunicarnos con Dios? ¿Cómo decirle que me siento Trieste, alegre, enojado, angustiado, ofendido? ¿Cómo pedirle lo que tanto mi hijo, matrimonio, economía, etc., necesita? Nuestro Padre Dios nos conoce y sabe nuestras necesidades, pero él quiere yo le diga cómo me siento, como pienso y lo que necesito, el quiere que yo tenga una relación con él; y lo podemos hacer por medio de la “Oración”. Es por eso que “Jesús enfatiza” la importancia de esa comunicación con el Padre por medio de la oración, Jesús sabía muy bien que nosotros podríamos obtener cuanto pidiéramos al Padre por medio de la oración llena de humildad y sencillez. Oremos, Oremos con amor y humildad de corazón reconociendo que tengo necesidad de Dios. Oremos con la convicción de que “Dios es mi Padre” y que cualquier cosa que le pida ¡en el nombre de Jesús!, el me lo concederá si es para bien mío, porque Dios Padre; “es mi Padre” y me ama como a su hijo amado. ORACION Padre te ofrezco mi debilidad, mis pecados, mis pensamientos, mis sentimientos, mi voluntad, te entrego mi corazón, y junto con él a todos aquellos que en él están, aquellos que me aman y aquellos que no me aman también, te pido por sus necesidades, sus familias, pero sobre todo por una relación estrecha contigo y por la salvación de nuestras almas. Padre te pido perdón por mis ofensas que hieren tu corazón y el mío, ofensas que me separan de ti y de tus bendiciones. Fortaléceme por medio de tu Espíritu para no volver a pecar. Concédeme Padre los deseos más profundos de mi corazón, que es amarte y tenerte siempre en mi vida. Gracias por darme tanto en abundancia, gracias Padre por amarme tanto. ¡Quiero que sepas que yo estoy muy feliz de conocerte y amarte con todo lo que tengo y lo que soy, porque todo es tuyo, ¡Gracias Padre por permitirme ser tuyo! XXIX Niedziela Zwykla Święty Paweł Apostoł, autor Drugiego Listu do Tymoteusza, będącego jego duchowym testamentem (3,14-4,2), słusznie nazwany został przez biblistów "Pierwszym po Jedynym”. Jedyny to oczywiście Jezus Chrystus nauczający w Ewangeliach, po Nim zaś w tym szeregu jako "pierwszy” idzie Apostoł pogan. Listy św. Pawła są prawdziwym wademekum życia chrześcijańskiego. Warto udać się do Pawła z Tarsu, by znaleźć u niego także pouczenie o modlitwie centralnym temacie Słowa Bożego dzisiejszej niedzieli. Życie Apostoła Narodów, burzliwe, naznaczone trudnościami, cierpieniem i męczeńską śmiercią, było syntezą czynu i modlitwy. Jako wierny świadek i apostoł Jezusa Chrystusa (por. Rz 1,1-7) Paweł może powiedzieć szczerze, zwracając się do swoich następców i naśladowców: "Głoś naukę, nastawaj w porę, nie w porę, w razie potrzeby wykaż błąd, poucz, podnieś na duchu z całą cierpliwością, ilekroć nauczasz” (2 Tm 4,2). Słowa te są nie tylko cenną wskazówką dla współczesnego duszpasterza, formatora czy nauczyciela, ale stanowią również program chrześcijańskiej szkoły modlitwy. Paweł rzuca zwięzłe hasła, które brzmią jak rozkazy wojskowe: "Bądźcie w modlitwie wytrwali” (Rz 12,12); "Dziękujcie zawsze za wszystko Bogu Ojcu, w imię Pana naszego Jezusa Chrystusa” (Ef 5,20); "Przy każdej sposobności módlcie się w Duchu” (Ef 6,18); "Trwajcie gorliwie na modlitwie, czuwając w niej wśród dziękczynienia” (Kol 4,2). Modlitwa, którą św. Paweł określa w 1 Tes 5,12-22 słowami: "Zawsze się radujcie! Nieustannie się módlcie! W każdym położeniu dziękujcie, taka jest bowiem wola Boża w Jezusie Chrystusie względem was!”, ma być nieustanna i wytrwała. Piękną jej starotestamentalną ilustracją jest pierwsze czytanie mszalne dzisiejszej niedzieli. Mojżesz w Księdze Wyjścia (17,8-13) trwa na modlitwie wspomagany umysłem, sercem i rękoma swoich ziomków, odnosząc zwycięstwo nad Amalekitami. To symbol - obraz wspólnej modlitwy Kościoła - wspólnoty wierzących grzeszników w trudnej drodze do nieba. Nigdy nie zdefiniujemy do końca modlitwy ani nie zrozumiemy jej wymiarów, gdyż zawsze musi pozostać w niej obszar tajemnicy. Większy zwłaszcza wtedy, gdy nie widać szybkich i wymiernych - tak typowych dla naszej współczesnej cywilizacji - efektów. Modlitwa to nie tylko wypowiedzenie słów, ale przede wszystkim trwanie przy Bogu, nawet wtedy, kiedy wydaje się to beznadziejne. Przeżywając, winniśmy uświadomić sobie - jak pięknie pisze ks. Jan Twardowski - iż taką cierpliwą, wytrwałą modlitwą jest Różaniec. Kiedy powtarzamy "Zdrowaś Maryjo”, to tak, jakbyśmy nieustannie trzymali się ręki Matki Boskiej, a kiedy wymawiamy imię Jezus - jakbyśmy pukali do drzwi Bożego domu. Rąbek tajemnicy modlitwy, po ludzku nieskutecznej i niewysłuchanej, odsłania wzruszający napis na ścianie afrykańskiego szpitala: "Prosiłem o siłę, bo pragnąłem czegoś dokonać. Zostałem słaby, aby nauczyć się pokory. KALENDARZ LITURGICZNY 17 października – Światowy Dzień Misyjny 18 października - Sw. Lukasza 19 października - Sw. John de Brebeuf Podziekowanie Wszystkim tym, ktorzy brali czynny udzial w naszym parafialnym odpuscie ku czci sw. Jadwigi i Oktoberfest skladamy serdeczne Bog zaplac, zapewniamy o naszej pamieci modlitewnej. Niech dobry Bog wynagrodzi wam wasze trudy. Bog zaplac. W związku z przeprowadzana wymianą naszej rampy kościelnej prosimy o używanie wejścia głównego do kosciola i zapraszamy wszystkich do udzialu w kosztach tej wymiany. Za wszelkie złożone ofiary na ten cel składam wiernym serdeczne Bóg Zapłać. Ks. Stanisław,CR Przypominamy o październikowym różańcu. „Ci, którzy będą gorliwie odmawiali Różaniec, otrzymają wszystko, o co poproszą” Proponujemy, by w październiku modlitwy różańcowe ofiarować w intencji osób dotkniętych syndromem postaborcyjnym. „Bez skruchy i powrotu do Boga życie wieczne setek tysięcy osób uwikłanych w zabicie dzieci nienarodzonych jest zagrożone” . 6
