Lent & Easter Seasons – Please see the attached special VARIA (updated) for Lent-Easter. Finance & Administration Mileage Reimbursement Rate: Effective April 1, 2014, the diocese has authorized the use of the previously approved (January 1, 2014) IRS reimbursement rate of $0.56/mile for “business travel.” Upon presentation of documentation that indicates the day, the main points of travel, the distance, and the nature of the business travel, parishes and diocesan offices are permitted to reimburse at the rate of $0.56/mile. The travel must be related to one’s assigned duties for the parish or the diocese, have proper documentation, and cannot include commuter miles (that is, miles driven between your residence and primary office/place of work). Addendum: Effective January 1, 2015, the IRS has set a new standard mileage rate of $0.575: http://www.irs.gov/uac/Newsroom/New-Standard-Mileage-Rates-Now-Available;- Business-Rate-to-Rise-in-2015. However, diocesan policy does not allow for an increase in the mileage reimbursement rate so as not to impact negatively parish and diocesan budgets for the current year. Parishes should plan on the new mileage rate effective July 1, 2015. Special Collections: These collections will be taken in all churches of the diocese on the designated weekend. Unless otherwise indicated, all collections must be remitted to the Diocesan Finance Office by the second Friday after the collection. Links provide resources to assist you in promoting these collections through bulletin inserts, pulpit announcements, prayers, etc. Please encourage parishioners to be generous stewards by supporting the important needs that exist in your parish, at the diocesan level, and for the universal Church.

  • Our Lady's Garment the Brown Scapular
    Our Lady’s Garment The Brown Scapular: A Sign of Salvation and Protection The Brown Scapular, the Most Powerful Sacramental “Whosoever dies clothed in this Scapular shall not suffer eternal fire.” - words of Our Lady to Saint Simon Stock (See the full promise on page 16) Such is the extraordinary promise Our Lady makes to those who wear Her Brown Scapular. And this wonderful promise makes the Scapular the most powerful sacramental Heaven’s mercy has given us. Who could doubt Our Lady’s promise, or be so foolish as not to wear, with profoundest gratitude and reverence, this abbreviated form of the Carmelite Mantle? This garment of grace — two simple pieces of brown wool worn over the shoulders — is a tangible sign of the Blessed Mother´s love and protection for Her devotees. We should kiss the Scapular devoutly when rising in the morning, and every time we put on a new Scapular to replace one that is worn or damaged. For this gesture of reverence, we receive an indulgence of 500 days, and we are also reminded to ask Our Lady: “Preserve me this day from sin and the occasions of sin.” Wearing the Scapular, a Form of Consecration Wearing Mary´s Scapular is a way to consecrate ourselves to Her service. Consecration sets apart a person or thing for a sacred purpose. Every Catholic should be consecrated to Mary. Our Lady of Fatima, on October 13th, 1917, held the Brown Scapular in Her hand, making the three child seers, Lucy, Jacinta and Francisco, understand that She wants all of us to wear the Scapular.

    u companions u 2019-2020 † Deceased * Current Donor 1 Dear Companions, On behalf of my Jesuit brothers, I THANK YOU for walking with us as steadfast partners this year. Your support has meant so much to the ministries across the Midwest and in other regions of the world. These last months have created challenges to be sure. But are these never-before-seen challenges? I say not. Indeed, these are exactly the challenges that have called Jesuits into service for centuries. The plague interrupted the studies of the 23 year old St. Aloysius Gonzaga who ministered to the sick in late 16th century Rome and himself succumbed to the disease. During the cholera epidemic of 1849 many Jesuits including Fr. Arnold Damen ministered to the sick in St. Louis. And Fr. Pedro Arrupe ministered to the wounded in Hiroshima during WWII. So, the Jesuits are no strangers to challenges and to Christ’s call -- much like what we are seeing today. As the school year was interrupted in March, and the new school year begins, our many lay colleagues, along with Jesuits, have been working overtime to figure out how to continue to deliver a rigorous, quality education to thousands of young men and women in our schools. Midwest Jesuits involved in healthcare and in the education of healthcare professionals have had to pivot to address the needs of students and patients alike. And our Jesuits serving overseas have had to step up to serve those at the margins – in Uganda, in Nairobi, in Peru, and many other places where the suffering is great.
