Mission Statement We, the faith community of St. Colette, in proclaiming the truth of the Gospel are committed to follow Jesus Christ by being ”the salt of the earth” and “the light of the world”. By our Baptism we are called to serve people of all cultures, migrants, and those who have no voice of their own; our born and unborn children; victims of violence, and the impover-ished. Empowered by the Holy Spirit and nurtured by the Eucharist, we are led to promote human dignity and justice for all people. We believe that this is the way the Lord is calling us to be a sign of His kingdom in this time and place.

Oficina de la Rectoria Cerrada el Lunes 19 de febrero.

El desierto... La primera vez que vi un desierto fue durante el invierno de 2005. Fui a Tucson, Arizona para Navidad. Esta fue una experiencia increíble para alguien del hemisferio norte para experimentar el sol y el clima tan cálido durante el invierno. Poco después, pasé el invierno de 2006/2007 en Israel y estuve allí durante casi tres meses. En el otoño de 2013, volví a Israel nuevamente. En los últimos años he visitado Arizona por una semana o dos, pero no he tenido la oportunidad de ir este año.

Encuentro que el desierto es un lugar espiritual. Cada vez que estoy en el desierto, pienso en la descripción de Jesús pasando 40 días en el desierto. También pienso en los 40 años cuando el pueblo judío deambuló por el desierto entre Egipto y la Tierra Prometida. El desierto no está muerto. Puede que no haya mucha agua, pero hay mucha vida. La vida en el desierto es más visible por la noche. Pero también, después de la temporada de lluvias, el desierto de la Tierra Santa y Arizona florece con varias flores y colores. Puede ser una gran pieza de arte natural. No fue la última vez sino la vez anterior, tuve la bendición de experimentar el floreciente desierto de Arizona.

Durante los próximos 40 días, estoy siendo llamado a permitir que Dios me lleve al desierto de mi propia vida. Dios me llama a reducir la velocidad, a mirar mi corazón, a mirar mis tentaciones, a mirar mi confianza en él. Me desafiaré a mí mismo a pasar tiempo frente a la imagen de la Divina Misericordia y meditaré: "Jesús, confío en ti".

Pax,

Rev. Michal Lewon Pastor

The Desert... The first time I saw a desert was during the winter of 2005. I went to Tucson, Arizona for Christmas. This was an unbelievable experience for someone from the Northern Hemisphere to experience sun and such warm weather during the winter. Shortly after, I spent the winter of 2006/2007 in Israel and was there for almost three months. In the fall of 2013, I went back to Israel again. For the last few years I have visited Arizona for a week or two but have not had the opportunity to go this year. I find the desert to be a spiritual place. Each time I am in the desert I think about the description of Jesus spending 40 days in the desert. I also think about the 40 years when the Jewish people wandered through the desert be-tween Egypt and the Promised Land. The desert in not dead. There might not be too much water but there is plenty of life. The life in the desert is more visible at night. But also, after the rainy season, the desert of the Holy Land and Arizona blooms with various flowers and colors. It can be a great piece of natural art. Not the last time but the time before, I was blessed to experience the blooming desert of Arizona. For the next 40 days, I am being called to allow God to take me to the desert of my own life. God calls me to slow down, to look at my heart, to look at my temptations, to look at my trust in Him. I will challenge myself to spend time in front of the Divine Mercy image and meditate: "Jesus, I trust in you."

Pax,

Rev. Michal Lewon Pastor

Tuesday, February 20th - Saints Jacinta (d. 1920) and Francisco (d. 1919) Marto

"Between May 13 and October 13, 1917, three Portuguese shepherd chil-dren from Aljustrel, received apparitions of Our Lady at Cova da Iria, near Fátima, a city 110 miles north of Lisbon. At that time, Europe was involved in an extremely bloody war. Portugal itself was in political tur-moil, having overthrown its monarchy in 1910; the government disbanded religious organizations soon after... Less than two years later, Francisco died of influenza in his family home. He was buried in the parish ceme-tery and then re-buried in the Fátima basilica in 1952. Jacinta died of in-fluenza in Lisbon in 1920, offering her suffering for the conversion of sin-ners, peace in the world, and the Holy Father. She was re-buried in the Fátima basilica in 1951." Wednesday, February 21st - St. Peter Damian - d. 1072 "Peter escaped poverty and neglect of his own brother when his other brother, who was archpriest of Ravenna, took him under his wing. His brother sent him to good schools and Peter became a professor... Soon, he decided to leave his teaching and give himself completely to prayer with the Benedictines of the reform of Saint Romuald at Fonte Avellana... The abbot commanded that when he died Peter should succeed him. Abbot Peter founded five other hermitages... Finally, Pope Stephen IX made Pe-ter the cardinal-bishop of Ostia. He worked hard to wipe out simony–the buying of church offices–and encouraged his priests to observe celibacy and urged even the diocesan clergy to live together and maintain sched-uled prayer and religious observance. He wished to restore primitive dis-cipline among religious and priests, warning against needless travel, vio-lations of poverty, and too comfortable living... In 1828, he was declared a Doctor of the Church."

Thursday, February 22nd - Chair of St. Peter "Like the committee chair, this chair refers to the occupant, not the furni-ture. Its first occupant stumbled a bit, denying Jesus three times and hesi-tating to welcome gentiles into the new Church. Some of its later occu-pants have also stumbled a bit, sometimes even failed scandalously. As individuals, we may sometimes think a particular pope has let us down. Still, the office endures as a sign of the long tradition we cherish and as a focus for the universal Church."

Friday, February 23rd - St. Polycarp - d. 155 “Polycarp, bishop of Smyrna, disciple of Saint John the Apostle and friend of Saint Ignatius of Antioch, was a revered Christian leader during the first half of the second century... The Asia Minor Churches recognized Polycarp’s leadership by choosing him as a representative to discuss with Pope Anicetus the date of the Easter celebration in Rome—a major con-troversy in the early Church... At 86, Polycarp was led into the crowded Smyrna stadium to be burned alive. The flames did not harm him and he was finally killed by a dagger. The centurion ordered the saint’s body burned. The “Acts” of Polycarp’s martyrdom are the earliest preserved, fully reliable account of a Christian martyr’s death.”

Martes, 20 de febrero - Santos Jacinta († 1920) y Francisco († 1919) Marto

"Entre el 13 de mayo y el 13 de octubre de 1917, tres pastores portugueses de Aljustrel recibieron apariciones de Nuestra Señora en Cova da Iria, cerca de Fátima, una ciudad a 110 millas al norte de Lisboa. En ese momento, Europa estaba involucrada en una guerra extremadamente sangrienta Portugal mismo estaba sumido en la confusión política, había derrocado su monarquía en 1910. El gobierno disolvió las organizaciones religiosas poco después ... Menos de dos años después, Francisco murió de gripe en la casa de su familia. Fue enterrado en el cementerio de la parroquia y luego -Fue enterrado en la basílica de Fátima en 1952. Jacinta murió de gripe en Lisboa en 1920, ofreciéndole sufrimiento por la conversión de los pecadores, la paz en el mundo y el Santo Padre. Fue enterrada nuevamente en la basílica de Fátima en 1951. "

Miércoles, 21 de febrero - San Pedro Damián - d. 1072 "Pedro escapó de la pobreza y el descuido de su propio hermano cuando su otro hermano, que era el arcipreste de Ravenna, lo tomó bajo su ala. Su hermano lo envió a buenas escuelas y Pedro se convirtió en profesor ... Pronto, decidió dejar su enseñanza y se entregó completamente a la oración con los benedictinos de la reforma de San Romualdo en Fonte Avellana ... El abad ordenó que, cuando muriera, Pedro lo sucediera. El abad Pedro fundó otras cinco ermitas ... Finalmente, el papa Esteban IX hizo de Pedro el cardenal-obispo de Ostia. Trabajó duro para acabar con la simonía -la compra de oficinas de la iglesia- y alentó a sus sacerdotes a observar el celibato e instó incluso al clero diocesano a vivir juntos y mantener la oración programada y la observancia religiosa. Deseó restaurar la disciplina primitiva entre religiosos y sacerdotes, advirtiendo contra viajes innecesarios, violaciones de la pobreza y una vida demasiado cómoda ... En 1828, fue declarado Doctor de la Iglesia ".

Jueves, 22 de febrero - Cátedra de San Pedro "Al igual que el presidente del comité, esta silla se refiere al ocupante, no a los muebles. Su primer ocupante tropezó un poco, negando a Jesús tres veces y dudando en recibir gentiles en la nueva Iglesia. Algunos de sus ocupantes posteriores también tropezaron un poco, a veces incluso fracasaron escandalosamente. Como individuos, a veces podemos pensar que un Papa en particular nos ha defraudado. Sin embargo, la oficina perdura como un signo de la larga tradición que apreciamos y como un foco para la Iglesia universal ".

Viernes, 23 de febrero - St. Polycarp - d. 155 "Policarpo, obispo de Esmirna, discípulo de San Juan Apóstol y amigo de San Ignacio de Antioquía, fue un venerado líder cristiano durante la primera mitad del siglo II ... Las Iglesias de Asia Menor reconocieron el liderazgo de Policarpo al elegirlo como representante para discutir con el Papa Anicetus la fecha de la celebración de la Pascua en Roma, una gran controversia en la Iglesia primitiva ... En 86, Polycarp fue conducido al atestado estadio de Smyrna para ser quemado vivo. Las llamas no lo dañaron y finalmente fue asesinado por una daga. El centurión ordenó quemar el cuerpo del santo. Los "Hechos" del martirio de Policarpo son el relato más antiguo y plenamente confiable de la muerte de un mártir cristiano ".

Update St. Colette’s Grouping Feedback and Discernment Team (GFDT) members met again with our fellow parishes on Monday, February 12th. In preparation for that meeting, we were asked to consider our parish’s strengths and opportunities for improvement.

In addition, we reviewed the goals and process for our upcoming parish conversation scheduled for Monday, February 19th at 7pm. Our next group meeting is scheduled for March 12th. We invite you to join us for this scheduled informational/feedback meeting Monday February 19 at 7pm in Halpin Hall for English speakers.

Además, revisamos las metas y el proceso de nuestra próxima conversación parroquial programada para el lunes, 19 de febrero a las 7 p.m. Nuestra próxima reunión grupal está programada para el 12 de marzo.

St. Colette Summer PADS Ministry

Where did you sleep last night? 2018 Summer PADS season

Saturday Evenings May 1- Sept 30 2018

Individuals experiencing street homelessness during the summer are at increased risk for health complications and death due to:

Hyperthermia. When a person experiences homelessness, they often have to carry all of their belonging with them everywhere they go. With high temperatures and carrying several bags, overheating is a risk

Sunburn, dehydration, and heat stroke West Nile Virus and other conditions caused by insect bites Difficulty breathing due to poor air-quality, triggering asthma and other conditions

At St. Colette; by following the teachings of Jesus and putting the Corporal Works of Mercy into practice, we are part of the solution. Our community is providing safety, shelter, and protection from the elements for members of our community experiencing homelessness. We will provide dinner, a cool and safe place to sleep, breakfast, a sack lunch, and if they choose, our guests may attend Mass. Volunteers (from all faiths and parishes) are needed. We need volunteers in many shifts throughout the night; There are opportunities for families to volunteer and as well as Confirmation service hour opportu-nities! There will be more information to come in the next few weeks. If you are interested in helping, please attend a volunteer orientation at the Hope Center at Journeys the Road Home 1140 E Northwest Highway, Palatine, IL. The facility is located between the US Post Office and Self-Storage Facility
