Commemorative Bricks are Available for Fall Installation

Last month, our new commemorative bricks around the Beatitudes/10 Com-
mandments Monument were installed. Since then, we have had several in-
quiries about ordering a Commemorative Brick. They can be ordered now
for installation in the fall of 2010. All sizes are available: 4x 8, 8x 8 and
12x 12; however, we have only 30 of the 4x 8 available. The order forms
are available at the rectory or you can download them at our website
www.ctklombard.org. A deposit of 50% is due at the time of the order and
the balance will be due at the end of August.

Dear Friends in the Diocese of Joliet,

Fathers Day is a special day to remember our fathers. But it is also a time to remember another kind of father, our di-
ocesan priests. You may not realize that priests normally retire at 70 years of age, and even after official retirement,
many continue working by celebrating the liturgy at parishes, ministering to the sick, or providing spiritual counseling.
Besides their social security checks, the priests are eligible for a small diocesan pension which helps pay for their living
costs during retirement. There is a retirement facility for priests in our diocese, but retired priests may choose to live on
their own. Their pensions and social security are barely sufficient to keep up with increases in every day expenses, such
as food, housing and transportation costs.

The Diocese of Joliet has a Priests Pension Fund, but as with many retirement plans, this fund is in need of being forti-
fied. We know that many of you have also experienced the strain of reduced retirement income.

To strengthen the Priests Pension Fund, a second collection will take place across the diocese on Fathers Day week-
end this year and in the future so that parishioners can show their appreciation and love for our prieststhose already
retired and those who will retire in the future. This collection should not be confused with the collection for the Retire-
ment Fund for Religious, which occurs during December and assists religious men and womennuns, brothers and
priests belonging to religious orders. That collection does not benefit retired diocesan priests.

For the past year, we have been observing a special Year for Priests, which Pope Benedict XVI established as a way to
inspire spiritual perfection in priests and to remind the faithful to pray for priests. It seems fitting that as the Year for
Priests ends this June, our dioceses Year of the Eucharist has just begun. Your generous response to this collection
would be a wonderful symbol of the gratitude you feel for priests who have and continue to nourish your life of faith
highlighted by their celebrating the Eucharistwhile also serving the Lord so faithfully.

On behalf of the priests of our diocese, We are grateful for your prayers and your generosity during the second collection
on Fathers Day weekend for our Priests Pension Fund. Please be assured of our prayers for you.

Sincerely in Christ,

Most Reverend J. Peter Sartain Most Rev. Joseph M. Siegel

What Do you Expect From Holy Communion?


By: Msgr. Charles Pope
God our Father,
Some people put more faith in Tylenol than they do in Holy Communion.
Thats because when they take Tylenol they expect something to happen. But in your wisdom and love
many people dont really expect anything to happen when they receive Holy you made all things.
Communion.
Bless these men,
In fact this is a problem that is present for many in regard to all the Sacraments
and to liturgy in general. Many see these things as tedious rituals rather than
that they may be

the Church are rather mindlessly attended: Sit, stand, say Amen, recite the Christian fathers.

Sadly, expectations are very low among the people of God. The blame can may honor them

Christ our Lord.
On this Feast of Corpus Christi, What do you expect from receiving the Body,
Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ in Communion?
Amen.
I can only say that I expect to become Christ. I will say it has not happened
in an instant. But rather, incrementally, organically. But, as I have been faithful
to Holy Communion, to prayer, scripture, Confession and the liturgy, I have
experienced dramatic change. I have seen sins be put to death. I have more
joy in the Lord, I am more confident and serene, less anxious and resentful. I
love more, am more compassionate and have more understanding. I do not
fear most of the things that I used to fear. I am less greedy and more gener-
ous.

I do not boast here since it is not I who have done any of this. Its just Jesus in
me. I am not what I want to be but I am not what I used to be. I am becoming
the One I receive in Holy Communion. And I promise you the same. If you are
faithful to the Sacraments, God will heal you. You will become holier each day.
It may seem imperceptible on a day to day basis, but it is underway. It is true
there are some setbacks along the way, but even these can bless us if we let
them give us humility. Holiness will grow if we but take our medicine.

What do you expect from Holy Communion? I promise you, in the Lord Je-
sus Christ, that if you are faithful to Confession, Communion, prayer, and the
Liturgy, I promise you vigorous progress and ultimate perfection: .being con-
fident in this that God who has begun a good work in you bring it to perfection

Administration Commission Reports Continued


Last week we reported what we had accomplished in the year past. This week will be the two major projects that have to
take priority in the year to come:

The Detention pond / Wetland mitigation:


The storm water detention pond, along the South border of the parish campus, and generally behind the school, was put
into place as part of the overall approval process to construct the PLC. The church benefit for this area was because it
provided better drainage of the lower parking lot. But special rules apply to this part of the project, because we removed
two ponds, wetlands, as part of the construction project. The landscaping around this detention pond had to undergo
and meet special criteria, before the whole PLC project could be approved. The final landscaping, that was a part of the
approved project, has not been installed. The county has demanded that we finish the job; and we are in the final stages
of awarding a contract to do just that. The cost of the trees and other plantings that the county is looking for, and to
monitor the new planting progress and growth for the required two years, will be on the order of $19,000.

Church fascia repair:


There are signs of damage from the inside of the fascia of the church building; particularly on the two faces of the South-
west corner of the building. In all likelihood, this is water damage, from a leak in the flat roof area that surrounds the
church, or in the roof drains that are concealed within the fascia. Unfortunately, there is no way to get a look inside, with-
out destroying the existing fascia and/or the soffit. We have had engineers from a couple of firms look at that part of the
building, and offer possible solutions, and ways to get a better idea of the extent of the problem. One concern is, if it is
water damage, and if it is not addressed and repaired, it will ultimately lead to a structural weakness or failure. At best,
this project will require the drainage system to be beefed up, and parts of the fascia and soffit to be replaced. While we
have been given estimates; until we open up the space behind the fascia, we will not be able to see the extent of the
damage, and only then get firm quotes to repair it.

Both of these projects will be funded by the net proceeds from last Falls sale of the commemorative bricks, and your
contributions into the gold envelopes. Thank you for your support, and prayers.
