— RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION FOR ADULTS —

RITE OF THE ELECT

Since early Fall, two adults from our parish have been meeting almost weekly with other RCIA candidates of St. Stephen and St. George Parishes to ask more about our Catholic faith. It is with great joy that we introduce our Elect who will travel to Holy Name Cathedral today with all the RCIA candidates in the Archdiocese of Chicago to be received at the Rite of the Elect. We joyfully introduce these two candidates to you this week. They are like all of us who have come together by the power of the Spirit to become members of our .

My name is Carrie Otto… I was born in Orland Park, are reside there today. I am a single mom of three beautiful children that keep me busy and young at heart. I have held my career in the Health and Wellness industry for over 15 years and eventually started my own business, Elan Therapeutic Massage in Frankfort. God has given me a great passion for helping individuals find comfort and healing through massage and body work whether post injury, cancer, or from the effects of stress on the body. I was raised in a non-denominational church and have had much exposure my entire life of the Christian Faith. Upon seeking a deeper understanding and relationship with the Lord, and an unrelenting need to understand the Catholic Faith, I began my journey at St. Elizabeth Seton Church by first attending Mass. My fiancé, (who is a St. Elizabeth Seton parishioner) and his four incredible children offer their love and support, combined with the To be received in full Communion members of this church, helped me make the decision to take the journey into becoming a member of the Catholic Church. to the Catholic Church I love what God has done in my life and I look forward to growing further in my faith and worship of the Holy One.

My name is Ron Summers… I have worked at GE Healthcare for the past 27 years. I am married to my beautiful wife Stacey and have two wonderful children, Jenny and Ryan. We have attended St Elizabeth Seton Church since we moved to Orland Hills in 1993. Both of my kids went to Cardinal Joseph Bernardin School. My daughter Jennifer, attended Kindergarten the very first year Cardinal Joseph Bernardin School opened in 2000. My family encouraged me to be baptized into the Catholic Faith for a long time but I felt that I never had time to complete the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation) training. Now I am ready to be formally accepted into the Catholic Faith and fulfill something that I have wanted to do for years.

To be Baptized, Confirmed We ask you to pray for our Elect who will be celebrating and Receive Eucharist their faith journey at our Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday. March 10, 2019 FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT Page Seven

“Every day, millions of people fight about religion. Whether with friends, family, or on social media, we expend lots of energy, lots of sharp words, and lots of strong feelings. But very few know how to have a good religious argument a rational, respectful, and productive exchange of differing views.” “Bishop Robert Barron, one of the leading Catholic figures in the world and among the most active on social media, has enjoyed thousands of fruitful religious arguments. In this book based on talks delivered at Facebook and Google, he explains why religion at its best opens up the searching mind, and how we, all believers and unbelievers alike, can share better discussions about God.” Please RSVP to Kyle Groves, Youth & Young Adult Minister 708-403-0101 x105 or [email protected]

Lenten Weekday Prayer Opportunity

LENTEN LITURGY OF THE HOURS Daily Morning Prayer in the church Monday-Friday at 8:30AM Beginning March 7-8, March 11-15; March 18-22; March 25-29; April 1-5; April 8-12; April 15-19 What Is Morning Prayer? Not many people are thoroughly familiar with this form of communal prayer. Long ago, our ancestors in faith had ways for individuals and households to praise and thank God constantly, with the poetic richness of praying at morning and evening with hymns and psalms known by heart. As time went on we lost those forms of prayer. Along with the Lord’s Supper, fixed- hour prayer is considered the oldest form of Christian spirituality. The psalmist’s example to praise God seven times each day, were trying to follow St. Paul’s exhortation to “pray without ceasing.” The apostles too used psalms in their prayers, and the psalms remain the backbone of the Liturgy of the Hours today. Both the ending and the beginning of the day were, to the ancients, natural times for prayer. Morning prayer makes us rise and thank God for a restful night, for another day of life, and for the strength and courage to do God’s will. The spiritual practice of celebrating Morning Prayer is a way of consecrating the day to God. March 10, 2019 FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT Page Thirteen

BEHIND CLOSED DOORS Caregiver Support Group To the outside world, many of us appear to have a wonderful life living on easy street or not far from it. For some of our pa- rishioners, this is far from the truth. If we peak behind the closed doors into the home of someone with an in- capacitating illness, terminal disease or dementia, we get a glimpse of the challenges existing not only for the patient but also for the caregiver. It truly is a challenge for caregivers to help their loved ones navigate a life filled with highs and lows all the while seeking to main- tain compassion and tenderness and good self care. A Caregiver Support Group meets monthly at St. Church, 15050 S. Wolf Rd., Orland Park. The meetings are held on the first Monday of the month at 1pm in the Niehaus Room (enter through the front doors of the church and turn to the right). The next meeting is Monday, April 1. If you have any questions regarding this group, please call Char Klabacha at 708- 349-5090 or Marie Flanagan at 708-687-3351.

LENTEN REGULATIONS

1.Abstinence from meats is to be observed by all Catholics 14 years old/older on Ash Wednesday and on all the Fridays of Lent. 2. Fasting is to be observed on Ash Wednesday by all Catholics who are 18 years of age but not yet 59. Those who are bound by this may take only one full meal. Two smaller meals are permitted if necessary to maintain strength according to one’s needs, but eating solid foods between meals is not permitted. The special Paschal fast/abstinence are prescribed for Good Friday and encouraged for Holy Saturday. “The season of Lent is a preparation for the celebration of Easter. The liturgy prepares the catechumens for the celebration of the Paschal mystery by the several stages of Christian Initiation; it also prepares the faithful, who recall their baptism and do penance in preparation for Easter.” (General Norms for the Year, #27) By the threefold discipline of fasting, almsgiving and prayer the Church keeps Lent from Ash Wednesday until the evening of Holy Thursday. All of the faithful and the catechumens should undertake serious practice of these three traditions. Failure to observe penitential days totally or a substantial number of such days must be considered serious. “On weekdays of Lent, we strongly recommend participation in daily Mass and self-imposed observances of fasting. In light of grave human needs which weigh on the Christian conscience in all seasons, we urge particularly during Lent, generosity to local, national and world programs of sharing of all things needed to translate our duty to penance into a means of implementing the right of the poor to their part of the abundance.” (US Bishops) Page Fourteen FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT March 10, 2019

LENT is for Loving

Every year we read about how Jesus taught, healed people, and loved everyone. Then we come to a special time every year when we try to be more like Jesus. It is called Lent. We remember Jesus’ words, how he prayed, and how he acted toward others. He invited everyone to be his friend. It is not easy to be like Jesus and to follow his ways. One of the ways we can be more like Jesus during Lent is to “Do A Good Deed” every day beginning on Ash

Wednesday.

Think about all the things you do in a week!

You can make your bed, help with the dishes, when at school sit with someone new at lunch, help someone in your neighborhood, pray for someone that you know is sick, walk your dog, clean your hamsters or guinea pig cage, don’t use your telephone or iPad for one night, or multiple nights, call your grandmother or grandfather on the phone and tell them how much you love them, be a good sport at your soccer, basketball, or lacrosse game. These are suggestions, but you can think of so many other ways you can do a “Good Deed.” SUNDAY, MARCH 10 Please cut out this

These are just a few of the many recent examples of the good works that our Girl Scouts have done that go far beyond selling cookies, and it is amazing how far reaching these young ladies have been. So when you see a Girl Scout wearing her uniform to- day (or any other day), please take a moment to congratu- late her on all of her Scouting accomplishments. Each patch, medal and pin on her uniform symbolizes her hard work and dedication to earn it. Through Girl Scouting, young ladies all around the world have looked inside themselves to find their own strength in their faith, and then looked outward to see how they can use those strengths in service of others. The Girl Scouts organization continues to build girls of courage, confidence and character who truly make our world a bet- ter place. If you would like to join us, please visit the Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana website girlscoutsgcnwi.org to register your future Girl Scout or to volunteer with us!
