As a parish – we need the gifts of each member in order for the Body of Christ to be ever, more fully present here in Beech Grove, and throughout this world we inhabit. This book provides so many opportunities for each of us to discover the various ways we may contribute to making Christ present in the parish and in the world. In a special way, I would like to thank the businesses and organizations that have advertised in this booklet; their contributions have made this publication possible – and I encourage you to support them with your business. As Pastor, I have come to love the Holy Name Parish Family very much. While I am still learning as I begin my second year, I am fi lled with gratitude for the many gifted people I have encountered here at Holy Name. I also want to extend a warm welcome to the families that have joined us this year as new members of the Holy Name family. I have certainly found Holy Name to be an incredibly welcoming and Christ-centered parish, and I consider myself very fortunate to serve Christ and the Holy Name of Jesus Parish along with you. Know that you are in my prayers each day, Sincerely in the Holy Name of Jesus, Fr. Bob Robeson Pastor 1 Holy Name Parish Resource Book & Directory Mass & Liturgical Schedule Masses Saturday Vigil ............................................................................ 5:00pm Sunday ........................................................ 7:30am, 9:30am, 11:30am Weekdays ......................................................... 5:45pm (Mon. & Wed.) ....................................................................... 8:00am (Tues. & Thurs.) ...............................................................................8:15am (Fri. & Sat.)

Sacraments Anointing of the Sick Like all sacraments, Anointing of the Sick was instituted by Jesus Christ. The special grace of this sacrament unites a sick person to the passion of Christ providing strength, peace, and the courage to endure in a Christian manner the suff erings of illness. This sacrament is not exclusively for those at the point of death, but also encompasses anyone of the faithful facing surgery, sickness, old age, or mental illness. To schedule an anointing, please call the parish offi ce at 317.784.5454. Homebound Communion Please keep the parish offi ce informed so that we may minister to those who are ill at home, in the hospital, or a health care facility. The hospital does not notify the parish offi ce of admissions. If you are unable to come to Mass and would like Communion in your home, please call the parish offi ce. 2 Holy Name Parish Resource Book & Directory Baptism The Sacrament of Baptism is the fi rst Sacrament of Initiation into the Catholic faith community. Your desire to have your child baptized is a public expression, a promise to actively share your faith with them through your own word and example. As a parish community, we pledge to assist you and your child in living out the baptismal promises you made. Parents who wish to baptize their child must be registered in the parish. First-time parents are required to attend a Baptism Preparation class prior to the baptism of their child. Classes are off ered quarterly, and parents may attend the preparation class prior to the birth of their child. To be permitted to take on the function of sponsor a person must: be designated by the parents or the pastor and have the intention of fulfi lling the function of sponsor, have completed the sixteenth year of age, be a Catholic who has been Confi rmed and who has already received the Most Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist and who lives a life of faith, not be bound by any canonical penalty, not be the father or mother of the one to be baptized. Any baptized person who belongs to a non-Catholic church community is not permitted to be a sponsor except together with a Catholic sponsor and then only as a witness of the Baptism (can.874). The non-baptized may not be sponsor or witnesses. Please call the parish offi ce for additional information and to schedule a baptism. Confi rmation Confi rmation is the Sacrament in which one is enriched by the gift of the Holy Spirit and bound more perfectly to the Church. Confi rmation takes place in 8th grade and candidates must be baptized and have adequate knowledge of their faith. The Confi rmation preparation begins with a Family Session and throughout the year there will be classes and a retreat. Confi rmation will take place in April or May. First Reconciliation & First Holy Communion Second Grade baptized children of Holy Name School and Parish are prepared for First Reconciliation and First Holy Communion as part of the 2nd grade curriculum. During this formation period, mandatory Family Sessions and Super Saturday retreat will take place as part of the preparation for this sacrament. This is intended for parents and their children. 3 Holy Name Parish Resource Book & Directory Holy Orders Holy Name is proud to promote vocations to the priesthood and religious life. Any male discerning a potential call to the priesthood is encouraged to contact the parish offi ce to schedule spiritual direction with the pastor or contact the Archdiocesan vocation offi ce at 317.236.1490 or visit www.HearGodsCall.com. Marriage Marriage is a sacrament in which the couple and God enter into a lifelong, exclusive covenant relationship. Marriage preparation provides an opportunity for the couple to refl ect and discern their intent to enter into such a relationship. Married couples are called to witness to faith through their commitment and devotion. Couples who wish to be married at Holy Name Catholic Church may schedule a wedding date if one or both are registered members of Holy Name parish. Archdiocesan Policy generally requires six months of marriage preparation. Preparation will require meeting with the Pastor, attendance at a marriage preparation program, and meeting with a sponsor couple. Weddings are celebrated on most weekends, excluding during the season of Lent. The fi rst step in marriage preparation is to call the parish offi ce to schedule an initial appointment. Marriage guidelines are available in the parish offi ce. Reconciliation Reconciliation is off ered Mon. 5:00-5:30pm, Wed. 6:15-7:00pm and Sat. 3:30-4:30pm in the church.

  • A Way of Life for Young Catholics
    1 A WAY OF LIFE FOR YOUNG CATHOLICS Fr Stephen Wang This Way of Life is written for young Catholics who want to live their faith more deeply but are not sure what steps to take. It contains practical, down-to-earth advice on all sorts of issues that come up in the lives of young Catholics, whether those issues are spiritual (‘How to pray’, ‘How to go to confession’) or moral (‘How to deal with alcohol and drugs’, ‘How far can I go with my boyfriend or girlfriend?’) or emotional (‘How to stop worrying’, ‘How to cope with suffering’) or vocational (‘How to discover my vocation’, ‘How to find a good husband or wife’). This booklet is not for experts, but for ordinary young people who have been touched by God in some way but are not sure how to respond. It will be especially helpful for older confirmation candidates, for students at college and university, and for young adults who are hoping to learn more about their faith and put it into practice in the reality of their daily lives. Fr Stephen Wang is a priest in the Diocese of Westminster. He has worked in parish ministry and seminary formation, and is currently Senior University Chaplain in his Diocese. He is the author of How to Discover Your Vocation and The New Evangelisation. [This booklet is published by the Catholic Truth Society. It is used here with permission from the author.

  • A New Era of Group Endeavours
    A new era of group endeavours * DR. GUZMAN M. CARRIQUIRY LECOUR About 20 years ago, His Holiness John Paul II indicated in the post-synodal exhortation Christifideles Laici, the emergence of a “new era of group endeavours” in the universal Church, where “alongside the traditional forming of associations, and at times coming from their very roots, movements and new sodalities have sprouted”1, as a sign of the “richness and the versatility of resources that the Holy Spirit nourishes in the ecclesial community”2 and the laity’s capacity for generosity and initiative. In fact, Divine Providence enriched the life of the Church with the blossoming of many charisms, which were the source of these new movements and ecclesial communities, according to their diverse educational methods, forms of community and missionary momentum. His Holiness John Paul II saw in them “one of the most significant fruits of that springtime in the Church which was foretold by the Second Vatican Council, but unfortunately has often been hampered by the spread of secularization”3, a cause for hope for the Church and mankind. In fact, both His Holiness John Paul II and His Holiness Benedict XVI consider these new ecclesial realities to be “providential”, that is, signs of the fruits of God’s designs for this historic time. Therefore, both Popes, welcomed, praised, recognised and encouraged these new movements and communities, convinced that they– and both Popes have reiterated this – “represent a secure newness, which is still waiting to be properly understood in light of its positive efficacy for the Kingdom of God at work in the present moment of history”.4 The bishops of the great continent of Asia have known how to gather and welcome this newness, in communion with the teaching of the recent Popes.

  • Young Voices on Climate Justice
    YOUNG VOICES ON CLIMATE JUSTICE THE EUROPEAN YOUTH & CLIMATE JUSTICE REPORT 2020, PRESENTED BY GENERATION CLIMATE EUROPE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY For this report we have collected the opinions and ideas of young people on climate justice from across Europe. They hail from highly diverse backgrounds. Some live in their home countries. Some have left to live abroad. They are pupils and students, apprentices and young professionals. Some are active in youth organizations, some are out in the streets supporting the climate strikes, while others do not belong to any particular movement or organisation. Some are active at their university, some in a union, some at their local parish and some in environmental NGOs. Yet, they all are united by their vision of a sustainable and just Europe. Our consultations indicate that young people are guided by values like responsibility, solidarity and community. Young people in Europe fear the consequences of the climate crisis and are concerned by the current lack of ambition and the missing sense of urgency. At the same time, Europe’s youth thinks big and wants us all to act together to solve the climate crisis, with everybody doing their fair share. This young generation has a particular sensitivity for questions of social justice. The respondents to our consultation, thus, recognized a series of barriers hindering a transition to a sustainable society and an economy that is comprehensive, fast and just at the same time. For many young people it is difficult to live a green and just life. The European Union and its member states need to provide the necessary conditions making a sustainable as well as high- quality diet, clothing, mobility, energy supply and housing available and accessible to all, regardless of their socio-economic background.
