Dear Friends,  Dear young people, “you are priceless! You are not up for sale! Please, do not let yourselves be bought. Do not let yourselves be seduced.

Prayer enables us to share with him every aspect abandon what is best about this stage of your of our lives and to rest confidently in his embrace. At lives. If you do, the Lord may one day reproach the same time, it gives us a share in his own life and you: “I remember the devotion of your youth, love. When we pray, “we open everything we do” to your love as a bride, and how you followed me in him, and we give him room “so that he can act, enter the wilderness” (Jer 2:2). and claim victory”.[81] 160. Adults, too, have to mature without 156. In this way, we can experience a constant losing the values of youth. Every stage of closeness to him, greater than anything we can life is a permanent grace, with its own enduring experience with another person: “It is no longer I who value. The experience of a youth well lived live, but it is Christ who lives in me” (Gal 2:20). Do not always remains in our heart. It continues to deprive your youth of this friendship. You will be able to grow and bear fruit throughout adulthood. Young feel him at your side not only when you pray, but at people are naturally attracted by an infinite every moment. Try to look for him, and you will have horizon opening up before them.[85] Adult life, the beautiful experience of seeing that he is always at with its securities and comforts, can risk your side. That is what the disciples of Emmaus shrinking that horizon and losing that youthful experienced when, as they walked along dejectedly, excitement. The very opposite should happen: Jesus “drew near and walked with them” (Lk 24:15). In as we mature, grow older and structure our the words of a saint, “Christianity is not a collection of lives, we should never lose that enthusiasm and truths to be believed, rules to be followed, or openness to an ever greater reality. At every prohibitions. Seen that way, it puts us off.

Many young people are concerned about Instead, let yourself be loved by God, for he their bodies, trying to build up physical strength loves you just as you are. He values and or improve their appearance. Others work to develop respects you, but he also keeps offering you their talents and knowledge, so as to feel more sure of more: more of his friendship, more fervor in themselves. Some aim higher, seeking to become more prayer, more hunger for his word, more longing involved and to grow spiritually. Saint John said: “I to receive Christ in the Eucharist, more desire to write to you, young people, because you are strong and live by his Gospel, more inner strength, more the word of God abides in you” (1 Jn 2:14). Seeking the peace and spiritual joy. Lord, keeping his word, entrusting our life to him and 162. But I would also remind you that growing in the virtues: all these things make young you won’t become holy and find fulfilment hearts strong. That is why you need to stay connected by copying others. Imitating the Saints to Jesus, to “remain online” with him, since you will not does not mean copying their lifestyle and grow happy and holy by your own efforts and their way of living holiness: “There are intelligence alone. Just as you try not to lose your some testimonies that may prove helpful connection to the internet, make sure that you stay and inspiring, but that we are not meant to connected to the Lord. That means not cutting off copy, for that could even lead us astray dialogue, listening to him, sharing your life with him from the one specific path that the Lord has and, whenever you aren’t sure what you should do, in mind for us”.[86] You have to discover who asking him: “Jesus, what would you do in my place?”. you are and develop your own way of being [84] holy, whatever others may say or think. 159. I hope that you will be serious enough Becoming a saint means becoming more fully about yourselves to make an effort to grow yourself, becoming what the Lord wished to spiritually. Along with all the other exciting things dream and create, and not a photocopy. Your life about youth, there is also the beauty of seeking ought to be a prophetic stimulus to others and “righteousness, faith, love and peace” (2 Tim 2:22). leave a mark on this world, the unique mark that This does not involve losing anything of your only you can leave.

CHURCH DOOR REPLACEMENT
The Parish is replacing the Lorain Road vestibule church doors as well as the two side doors in the vestibule, including all hardware.  The existing doors are original, installed when the church was built in 1948, and they were refurbished in 1992. Due to rot, warpage and hardware failure, Father Lanning, with the recommendation from Parish Finance Council, has decided to replace the doors.  The estimated cost of each set of doors is approximately $12,000.

Parishioners are invited to memorialize a loved one by purchasing a set of doors or by making a significant donation towards the cost of a set of doors. The memorial will include an engraved bronze plaque adhered to either the interior or exterior brick wall adjacent to the doors.

For more information, please contact  Ed Doubrava at [email protected]  or Fr. Lanning at [email protected].
