Or is it more like you've been in a tagRteam wrestling match of “parents vs. toddlers”? By Sarah Lenz The Early Catholic Family Life Program ministers to parents in this stage and offers that preparaon. ECFL seeks to equip you, your child’s primary educator in the faith, within the context of community. It may seem daunng to approach parenng lile ones with the aim to evangelize, especially at a me when just fulfilling their physical and emoonal needs can be so depleng. This ministry is thoughully offered to you. By entering into this process through the ECFL program, you’ll receive the necessary structure, fellowship and spiritual nourishment to embrace the task of raising your child in the Catholic faith. The child educaon curriculum enables your child to encounter the wonder of God’s love for them at their developmental level, while the discussions help you, the parent, to engage more deeply in your own relaonship with Christ through topics and content that apply directly to your present state in life. Furthermore, you will have the companionship of other Catholic parents along the road! The ECFL program does not guarantee that your Sunday worship will no longer include some serious toddler wrangling in the pew. But our hope and prayer for ECFL at St. Bart’s is that parents can be strengthened and reassured in their efforts to bring their children to know God, and that they begin to experience the peace that comes from having all of WWW.STRBARTS.ORG/ECFLRATRSTRBARTS their family’s needs rightly ordered in relationship to Christ.

MIKE VAN SLOUNAO you should also do. John 13:15 July 13 St. Henry, Emperor (973R1024) St. Henry was the Duke of Bavaria, the Holy Roman Emperor, a powerful ruler, and extremely involved in Church affairs. St. Henry was born in Hildesheim, Bavaria, on May 6, 972. His parents were Duke Henry II of Bavaria and Gisela of Burgundy. He was the eldest of four children, all of whom rose to posions of influence. His brother Bruno became the bishop of Augsburg, his sister Gisella married Stephen of Hungary, and his sister Brigid became the abbess of the monastery of St. Paul in Regensburg. St. Henry received his educaon from St. Wolfgang, the bishop of Regensburg, from whom he gained a strong love for the Church, and in monasc schools where he developed a great appreciaon for the value of monasc life. He was a man of faith, prayer, and convicon. In 995 at the age of 22, St. Henry succeeded his father as the Duke of Bavaria. Three years later he married Kunegunda of Luxemburg (also Cunegunda or Cunegund). They had no children, were married 26 years, and together performed many good works, parcularly care for the poor. She became a Benedicne nun a er his death in 1024, and she was canonized a saint in 1200. In 1002 at the age of 29, St. Henry was elected to succeed his cousin, Oo III, as the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. He was first crowned in 1007 at Magonza, and then again in 1014 by Pope St. Henry Benedict VIII in Rome. As emperor, he realized that he was subject St. Henry, Perham, MN to the King of all, and that the most important crown is not power and riches but the crown of immortality. The Empire was vast and beset by strife. St. Henry led multiple military campaigns throughout his reign. In 1004 his forces crossed the Alps to defeat Arduin of Ivrea who had installed himself as king of Italy. In the same year his troops drove Boleslaus I of Poland from Bohemia. In 1021 his military returned to Italy to confront Greeks who had a stronghold at Apulia. St. Henry did much to strengthen the Church in Germany, parcularly in the reform and reorganizaon of the dioceses of Hildesheim, Magdeburg, Strassburg, and Meersburg. Also, in a strategic move, he founded the Diocese of Bamberg in 1006 in the hope that the capital of the empire would move from Rome to Germany, and he insisted on the construcon of both a great cathedral and a monastery as focal points. Pope John XIX approved the new diocese, and Pope Benedict VIII consecrated the cathedral in 1020. The new diocese served as the center of a missionary outreach to the Slavs, but it was opposed by the bishops of Wurzburg and Eichsta, both of whom lost territory from their dioceses. St. Henry supported the Pope’s authority over the Papal States. He was a strong proponent of the Cluny monasc reform movement which put him squarely at odds with archbishop Aribo of Mainz, his friend and personal appointee, who opposed the reform. St. Henry died in his Grona palace near Gongen, Germany, on July 13, 1024, at the age of 51, and was buried in the Bamberg cathedral. Pope Eugene III canonized him a saint in 1146, and Pope Pius X named him the patron saint of the Benedicne lay oblates. 3 THIS WEEK AT ST.
