J Vision 2000 HEARTS FORMED BY FAITH Dear parishioners, This weekend we celebrate our patronal feast day for the parish. We rejoice in the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary and celebrate her maternal love for us. Today as a parish family we ask the Blessed Mother to lead each of us to a deeper union with her Son, Jesus Christ. As disciples of the Lord we strive for two essential elements in our life of faith— personal relationship and confident articulation. All of us strive for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, formed by the church, nourished by prayer and embraced in our service to God and neighbor. A personal relationship with Jesus Christ is not a matter of emotional subjectivity, but a genuine religious experience. We are bound to Christ through our religious experience and expressed faith. The Holy Spirit and Holy Mother Church act as safeguards for shaping and molding the various misconceptions and distortions that all of us are prone to encounter as we seek the Lord. Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture help us to weed out the bad seeds that would contaminate our relationship with Jesus. One of the real dangers of professing a personal relationship with the Lord apart from the community of the Church is to make the Lord little more than a mirror for our own needs and personality. One can worship the “God of Themselves” without ever realizing it.

For 60 years, Mundelein College offered its students a comprehensive Catholic liberal arts education. The women who were educated at Mundelein came from many ethnic and socio-economic groups and were often the first females in their families to attend college.

  • History of St. Pancratius Parish. St
    History of St. Pancratius Parish. St. Pancratius Church Dedication, May 8, 1960. CAP at Orchard Lake. Prior to March 9, 1924, the present area of St. Pancratius parish was a part of Five Holy Martyrs Parish, which was established in the Brighton Park Area in 1909. Since the majority of the Catholics of Polish descent had originally settled in the shadow of Crane Company, between Kedzie and California Avenues and between Pershing Road and Ar- cher Avenue, Rev. Joseph Kruszka, the founding Pastor of Five Holy Martyrs, decided to build a parochial combination school and church building on 41st Street between Albany Avenue and Kedzie Avenue (38th Street was then the main business street of the area). While the building was being constructed, Sunday Masses were celebrated in the auditorium of Davis Public School located on 39th Street between Albany and Sacramento Avenues. From 1909 until 1919 the two-story structure on 41st Street served as Five Holy Martyrs Church (second floor) and School (first floor). By 1919 the main business center shifted to Archer Avenue and the area south of Archer Avenue began to develop rapidly. A new Five Holy Martyrs Church and School were built that year at 43rd Street and Richmond Avenue, and the old building on 41st Street was used as a parochial hall (second floor) and a temporary auxiliary school (first floor). It was a convenient arrangement for the Catholics living south of Archer Avenue, but Catholics north of Archer Avenue began to beseech His Eminence George Cardinal Mundelein to establish a parish in their midst.

  • We Remember St, Christopher Parish
    We Remember St, Christopher Parish Community initiative has always played a major role in the continuing development of St. Christopher Parish. On February 26, 1922, Roy Swillum, Raphael Griffin and Frank Kosowski visited the Franciscan Fathers at the St. Roch Friary in Oak Forest. II., to discuss the feasibility of starting a new parish. They represented Catholic families living in the Midlothian district who found it difficult to attend Mass in Blue Island or Oak Forest and desired a religious education for their children. The group felt positive that they could build and support a church. Subsequently, Archbishop George W. Mundelein created the parish of St. Christopher and placed it in the hands of the Franciscan Fathers on March 24, 1922. The Very Reverend Martin Strub, OFM. Provincial of the Sacred Heart Province designated Rev. Frances S. Eckholt OFM as the first pastor. During the next month, the new parish rented the Community Hall on the second floor of the Woerheide building, l47th and Kolin for $10.00 a month. Sam Wilson's General Store, formerly Peterman's, occupied the ground floor. Originally, Woerheide farm workers lived in the building. Parishioners constructed a collapsible altar and the Franciscan Fathers loaned the parish a Chaplain's Mass-kit. Wooden benches, without back rests or kneelers, provided seats for 80 people. Fr. Francis celebrated the first Mass on April 23, 1922. The congregation, 32 adults and 18 children, contributed $40.00 to the collection. Approximately 30 families, totaling 73 adults and 58 children, comprised the first parishioners. Ten acres of land on the north side of 147th Street, two blocks west of Crawford, were purchased on August 23 from William J.

  • CATHOLICS and US POLITICS AFTER the 2016 ELECTIONS Understanding the “Swing Vote”
    CATHOLICS AND US POLITICS AFTER THE 2016 ELECTIONS Understanding the “Swing Vote” EDITED BY MARIE GAYTE, BLANDINE CHELINI-PONT, AND MARK J. ROZELL Palgrave Studies in Religion, Politics, and Policy Series editors Ted G. Jelen University of Nevada, Las Vegas Las Vegas, NV, USA Mark J. Rozell George Mason University Fairfax, VA, USA A generation ago, many social scientists regarded religion as an anachronism, whose social, economic, and political importance would inevitably wane and disappear in the face of the inexorable forces of modernity. Of course, nothing of the sort has occurred; indeed, the public role of religion is resurgent in US domestic politics, in other nations, and in the international arena. Today, religion is widely acknowledged to be a key variable in candidate nominations, platforms, and elections; it is recognized as a major infuence on domestic and foreign policies. National religious movements as diverse as the Christian Right in the United States and the Taliban in Afghanistan are important factors in the internal politics of particular nations. Moreover, such transna- tional religious actors as Al-Qaida, Falun Gong, and the Vatican have had important effects on the politics and policies of nations around the world. Palgrave Studies in Religion, Politics, and Policy serves a growing niche in the dis- cipline of political science. This subfeld has proliferated rapidly during the past two decades, and has generated an enormous amount of scholarly studies and journalistic coverage. In 2006, the journal Politics and Religion was created; in addition, works relating to religion and politics have been the subject of many articles in more general academic journals.

  • Celebrating 120+ Years at St. Mary School for More Than 120 Years, St
    St. Mary of the Annunciation A seasonal publication to inspire and engage our parish community Spring 2019 Celebrating 120+ Years at St. Mary School For more than 120 years, St. Mary School has educated Catholics in Fremont Center and surrounding northern Lake County. From its rural one-room schoolhouse beginnings to today, St. Mary School has educated generations of parish families and left a lasting impression on those who have walked its halls. Starting with the 2019–20 school year, due to a consolidation, all students attending St. Mary School, which has been called Frassati Catholic Academy – Mundelein Campus since 2017, will be educated at Frassati’s Wauconda Campus on the grounds of Transfiguration Parish. The consolidation marks the end of daytime academic classes at St. Mary School while still providing a viable Catholic education option for parish youth. Within this issue we have asked a variety of people, “What sets St. Mary School apart?” Multiple generations of alumni and faculty responded passionately about the dedicated faculty, strong Catholic identity rooted in the teachings and traditions of the Church, the small, caring community, and a sense of family. First Class of St Mary School, 1896 Fifth Grade Class of 2019 Pioneer School Days Dear Parish and School Families, The earliest reference to a school appears in the Annual Parish Report in 1884 The long and treasured history of Catholic when Fr. William Goebbels recorded 11 boys and 12 girls being taught by one education at St. Mary parish is a blessing for male teacher. There is no record of a school building on the original parish which I know we all are profoundly grateful.
