WEEKLY MEDITATION

The message in today's Gospel speaks of love. How much we need that word! How deeply implanted in us, according to the Creator's plan, is the yearning to love and be loved!
The first truth to come forth from the message of the Word of God is this: Love is from God. God is the source of life who created man and called him to life. God implanted within man His own spirit and sensitivity for love. That is the source of man's ability to love and his deep need to be loved. He who is All Love gives to man the ability to collaborate and share in His creation and in His power of self-giving love. Man is at his best and resembles God most when he loves. It is then that he realizes the meaning of his existence and the purpose of his personal life.
Jesus still offers us His friendship. Without any guarantee that we will repay or answer Him, He calls each of us His friend and draws us to Himself with this entreaty: "Remain in my love."

SCHOOL BOARD There will be 4 school board positions open for the next school year. The positions are for a 3 year term, renewable for another 3 year term. The school board develops policies necessary to govern the operation of the school, advises the pastor on principal selection and participates in the principal performance review, advises in matters of tuition and budget, monitors the collection of tuition, and acts as a liaison for communication with other parishioners regarding school matters. The board is also involved in public relations and long-range planning for the school. Board members are expected to take an active role in major fund-raisers for the school. If you think that you would like to be a school board member, please submit a letter to our pastor, Fr. Joe Grbes, listing your reasons for wanting to serve on the school board. Letters should be submitted by June 6, 2003.

WORKSHOP ON RACISM & ETHNIC SENSITIVITY The Archdiocese of Chicago is sponsoring a workshop for parish representatives to come together to reflect on the issues of racism and ethnic sensitivity. Our parish is scheduled to send at least 10 representatives for the weekend of June 6-7. There is no cost for this seminar. If you are willing to attend, please contact Fr. Joe as soon as possible. We appreciate your interest in these crucial concerns. Please respond.

MASSES - Please be advised that we already have a full schedule of masses for the months of May and June; therefore, no more masses will be scheduled during those 2 months. Thank you for your understanding.
