Jordan is an absolutely Teachers and Preachers.” I think Jack is one of the best delightful young man and he “gets it” when it comes to scholars and spiritual writers of our time. I want Jordan to what priestly ministry is all about. He’s a people-person, be a great homilist. The last gift is an oil stock.

Birth is miraculous and incredibly messy. I think that it say that the hundreds (or thousands) present actually anyone present at the birth of another human being can agreed with what they were saying! If we want to treat probably attest to this. Fear, elation, pain, and perhaps that !rst Pentecost as an actual human event in history, even frustration accompany the mystery of birth, the we should probably consider that there were likely a few mystery of new life. At the birth of each of my sons, I was arguments that ensued that day. At least some of the anxious with excitement. Because even as I had come to audience must have been shocked or even scandalized by expect certain things (each time, I was lucky to have my the crazy message of a “Son of God” who died in the most husband as well as compassionate and competent health humiliating and degrading way coming back to life to care workers there to monitor the health of the baby and reconcile humanity to the Almighty one. me), it was viscerally clear that we were heading into the unknown. Labor had never been exactly like this and most Imagining the !rst Pentecost as messy as well as inspiring of all - we had never met this human being before. might help us build the capacity to live in hope: Hope that our current reality might birth justice and mercy. Hope The !rst Pentecost - with the tongues of #ame revealing that conservatives and the liberals , the traditionalists and the Spirit’s presence hovering over the heads of the the progressives , the pius believers and the apathetic - we disciples - is often considered to be the Birth of the Church . are all passionately and absurdly loved by God. Hope that Notably, no documents were signed and no leaders were we might still be the community (fractured and sinful as we named and sworn in that day. But with no institution yet are) through whom the redemption of the whole human developed, the Church was born out of a mission: the Holy family might unfold. Because that mission of the church, Spirit’s entering into the followers of Christ and sending born at that !rst Pentecost, is one that calls the believers of them out to bring the message of Jesus to people of all Christ to be led by divine grace to transform the world. nations and welcome them into communion with God through Christ. The scene described in the scriptures is one Pentecost 2019 must not be a nod to a historical and !nite of energy, of movement, of passion, and even of hope. moment from millennia ago. Pentecost today must be a recognition that the messiness of birth goes hand in hand But with all of this, what we often fail to recognize or with its mysterious goodness and fruitfulness.

NEVER BE ORDINARY . WISDOM FROM MY FATHER By Fr. John Cusick

This might be a good gift for Fathers’ Day or a belated graduation gift. Someone told to me that it was given to an “expectant father” at a Baby Shower. I believe you will enjoy it, too.

First published in December 2018, it sold out quickly. It is available again from the publisher (corbybooks.com) and Amazon.com.

I must admit that I am excited about it. For years I had “writers’ block.” I never believed that I would or could write a book. I talk for a living. Writing is a very di!erent form of the English language.

It is a short little book made up of seven pieces of wisdom I remember my dad telling me during the 25 years he was a part of my life. It is not a book of brilliant insights. It is a book of common-sense wisdom you have probably heard or said to others during your life. If you have heard me speak, teach, or preach during the past 48 years, then you have heard the contents of “Never Be Ordinary.” I have appropriated the street-smart wisdom of George Cusick into my own life, and passed it on to anyone willing to listen.

From the Publisher:

“This is a warm and wonderful tribute from a son to his father. But it is more than that. When the author was growing up, he did not pay close attention to things his father, an ordinary man, said to him. Yet years later, as he looked back on his life, he realized how much his father’s words really did in"uence his life. Here Father Cusick presents 7 key things his father taught him.”

“Never Be Ordinary” is available on Amazon and directly from the publisher, Corby Books. I hope you enjoy this little book half as much as I did writing it, and remembering all the experiences wrapped around what I recall my dad telling me. Available at: corbybooks.com and Amazon.com

- John Cusick

Recently Pope Francis said, “Today’s world seems to be increasingly !lled with indi#erence and cynicism. At the root of these attitudes is a lack of Hope which harms our relationships with each other and with God.” The most apparent solution is an infusion of Faith, Hope and Love. That has been and continues to be the primary goal of the Faith Foundation.

Over the past fourteen years the Faith Foundation has given out 233 grants totaling over $950,000. We, on the committee, realize that without your thoughtfulnesss and generosity none of this great work and blessings would have been possible. Be assured that every dollar that you contribute goes directly to inspire our young people.

Please join us on Monday, June 17th as we honor two sel%ess servants who bring hope and love to the many hearts they touch each day. This year’s recipients are Monsignor Ken Velo and Tim Bopp. These sel%ess servants are constant examples of how each of us can make a di#erence in our own fast paced world one person at a time. Remember no one can do everything - but everyone can do something.

“Come inside,” she whispers. “Come rekindle the "re.”

Join us for a women’s weekend of renewal In the midst of the city. We will pause together at the Cenacle Retreat House just minutes from Lake Michigan to assess our spiritual homes, consider opportunities for our own spiritual makeovers and strengthen our foundations.

This year has brought a lot of change to Chicago. We have a new mayor in City Hall, just days into her administration, and a new governor in Springfield who promises to shake up education in the state.

One thing that has been constant is the impact that North Lawndale College Prep (NLCP) is having on our city. For 21 years, NLCP has been a beacon of light on Chicago’s west side. In 2018-2019, NLCP’s Peace Warriors have trained more than 120 students and teachers on how to interrupt violence in Together we rise. their schools and communities. NLCP’s Phoenix Hall has supported five students experiencing housing insecurity, providing them with residential services, food and counseling. And, at our two campuses, more than 150 scholars have completed their Senior Project, exploring issues that affect their community from the impact of sugary drinks on health outcomes to how male-dominated culture affects rates of sexual violence.
