Say Often, "Lord, Have Mercy"

Have you ever wondered what to do when you feel attacked on all sides by seemingly irresistible forces, waves that cover you and want to sweep you off your feet? Sometimes these waves consist of feeling rejected, feeling forgotten, or feeling misunderstood. Sometimes they consist of anger, resentment, or even the desire for revenge, and sometimes of self-pity and self-rejection. What are you to do? Make the conscious choice to move the attention of your anxious heart away from these waves and direct it to the One who walks on them and says, "It is I. Do not be afraid." (Matt. 14:27; Mark 6:50; John 6:20) Keep turning your eyes to Him and go on trusting that He will bring peace to your heart. Look at Him and say, "Lord, have mercy." Say it again and again, not anxiously, but with confidence that He is very close to you and will put your soul to rest.

Visit to the Cemeteries in Honor of All Soul's Day

Next Saturday, November 3, we will visit cemeteries in honor of our deceased. The most we can do for our beloved departed ones is to pray for their souls. All of us have reason to visit the graves of our loved ones. The schedule is as follows: St. Mary, 9:30 A.M., gathering at the main building as we do each year; Holy Sepulchre, 10A.M., gathering at the grave site of the Croatian Franciscans. Holy Mass on All Saints Day will be at 7A.M., 8A.M., and 7P.M.

Update for New Envelopes

We are about to print new church envelopes. If you or any of your family members are not registered as parishioners, please let us know. Come to the office and register. Registered parishioners whose information has changed due to marriage, births, deaths, address, telephone, etc., should contact the rectory to update our records. Thank you for your cooperation.

Thank You from "Croatian Woman"

Thank you so much to all who came and participated in any way in our special event "Be True to the Red, White, and Blue". Because of all of you, this year's fashion show was a huge success. We raised $11, 000 to donate to the victims of the September 11^th terrorist attack on America. Once again, thank you for placing your trust in "Croatian Woman, Branch No.1".

"A Century of Fidelity"

Book Presentation and Luncheon The presentation of a new book "A Century of Fidelity", written by our Franciscan priests, Fr. Robert Jolic and Fr. Joe Grbes, will be held NEXT SUNDAY, November 4 in our school hall after the 11 A.M. Croatian mass. The book is an account of the 100 years that our Croatian Franciscans have spent ministering in North America. Fr. Marko Puljic, Custos of the Croatian Franciscans in N.A., will introduce the book. The presentation will be made by Fr. Marko Puljic, Custos; one of its authors, Fr. Joe; and the artist whose work appears in it, Francis Penavic. THE BOOK IS WRITTEN IN ENGLISH AND CROATIAN! The Marian Society will serve lunch for this occasion at 12:30 P.M. The presentation will follow.

ST. JEROME 90TH ANNIVERSARY - Mark your calendars for October 6, 2002. Our celebration will begin with a High Mass in the early afternoon, followed by an evening of dinner and entertainment at the Sheraton Hotel in the Loop. Also, we are looking for any photos or videos from parish events or family events at the parish. Please send these to the rectory clearly marked with your name and address so that we can return them.

WHAT TO DO WITH YOUR PAPER, MAGAZINES....

Did you know that you can recycle newspaper, magazines, and shopping catalogs at our school? Did you also know that our school earns money for paper dropped off at the green and yellow "Paper Retriever" bin in our campus? This is an easy way for you to recycle household paper and help raise money for projects like computers, books, and many new things that it takes to run a school. Please remember to bring your paper to the parish parking lot and drop it off in the bin. There is no financial commitment from you, just bring your paper. Furthermore, share this information with your family and your neighbors. Make this a community event. Finally, thank you for your continued support of this important event.
