NORTH SIDE KAIROS V RETREAT
August 13-16
Bellarmine Retreat House
Cost $175
High school students who have completed Sophomore, Junior or Senior year are invited to attend this coed, multi-parish experience which is led by trained student leaders. The Kairos program is based on St. Ignatian spirituality, it is a time to examine, discuss and reflect on each individual's commitment to self, family, friends and God, through small and large group activities. And of course, since it is summer, there is also time to enjoy nature, laugh and play.

This particular program began when teens from St. Matthias, St. Nicholas, Queen of Angels and St. Ignatius parishes, who experienced the program at their Catholic high schools wanted to offer this retreat to their public school friends. The Youth Ministers and Pastors agreed, and now approaching its fifth year, participants have attended from 12 parishes, 19 high schools (public and Catholic) and four states.

For an application and/or information please contact Marlene Binkley at 773-271-0003.

JV MISSION APPEAL NEXT WEEK; PLEASE BE GENEROUS
Living simply… witnessing faith… doing justice and building community are the four values that shape the journey of a Jesuit Volunteer (JV). Next weekend, July 31 and August 1, Queen of Angels will be visited by an individual to speak on behalf of Jesuit Volunteers International.

Today, more than 75 JVs serve in Belize, Chile, Nepal, Micronesia, the Marshall Islands, Nicaragua, Peru, South Africa and Tanzania, giving two years of their lives as teachers, pastoral and youth ministers. They are in direct community outreach to those in need. The JV group lives the spirituality of St. Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Jesuits, and are driven by a faith which seeks justice to support the efforts of Jesuit priests and brothers in education and human development.

With your support, more Jesuit Volunteers will have the opportunity to serve the Church by reaching out to our brothers and sisters in the developing world. Look for the envelope in this week’s Guide to prepare for the collection July 31 and August 1 during the Mission Appeal. Thank you for your generosity.

Father Tom Pelton

Getting to Know Ourselves

Beginning this week, and throughout the summer, we will publish a series of articles explaining the many ministries and organizations that make up our Parish. What is being published each week is the Information Directory new parishioners receive when
they register. This is the same Directory that will be passed out this weekend at the Lincoln Square Folk and Roots Festival to those who visit our Parish and School Booth at the Fest inviting Fest participants to know about and perhaps join our Parish.

This week, we begin with the four Advisory Bodies that help form policy and vision as directed by the Archdiocese. We also explain two coordinator positions in our Parish.

Read each week. Learn more about those organizations whose names you hear in the weekly Mass announcements. See these articles as an invitation to you to join the others who make our Parish strong.

En este Día de Independencia, Ofrecemos esta Oración por Nuestra Nación

Dios grandioso y eterno,
Tú has revelado tu gloria a todas las naciones.
Dios de toda fuerza y poder, sabiduría y justicia,
A la vez que tu autoridad es realizada,
Las leyes son efectuadas y el buen juicio es decretado.

Asiste con tu espíritu de consejo y fortaleza
Al Presidente de los Estados Unidos,
Que su administración sea conducida con rectitud
Y que, con distinción, sea útil a tu gente de la cual es presidente.
Que conduzca la virtud y la religión con respeto.
Que ejecute las leyes con justicia y misericordia.
Que luche por detener el crimen, el vicio y la inmoralidad.

Permite que la luz de tu divina sabiduría dirija las decisiones del Congreso
Y que esa luz brille sobre todos los procesos y leyes
Enmarcado por nuestro reglamento y gobierno.
Permite que el Congreso luche por preservar la paz, promover la felicidad nacional
Y que continúe brindándonos las bendiciones de libertad e igualdad.

Oramos por el Gobernador de este Estado y por el Alcalde de esta Ciudad.
Por todos los miembros de sus cuerpos legislativos.
Por todos los jueces, oficiales civiles y todos los demás
Que se encargan de velar por nuestro bienestar político.
Concédele tu poderosa protección,
Para realizar sus deberes con honestidad y aptitud.

Más profundamente, encomendamos a tu infinita misericordia
A todos los ciudadanos de Estados Unidos y demás habitantes de esta tierra,
Que seamos bendecidos en conocimiento y santificados
En la realización de tus santas leyes.
Que nos preserves en la unión y la paz que no se consiguen en este mundo.
Y después de disfrutar de las bendiciones de esta vida, nos permitas disfrutar de las bendiciones eternas.
Amén.

(Escrito por los Obispos de EE. UU. Octubre, 1989)

HATS OFF TO QUEEN OF ANGELS HIGH ACHIEVERS
Congratulations to Joseph Lill ‘06, who achieved Honor Roll status at St. Patrick High School.

Allison Baniecki of Gordon Tech High School will attend the Nation Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine in Atlanta in July. She will join 350 other high school students from around the country who demonstrate academic excellence, leadership potential and an interest in a career in medicine.

RESPECT LIFE TO MEET JULY 13
The Respect Life Committee will hold its next meeting at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 13 in the Parish Center. The committee has been formed to raise awareness of life issues within the Queen of Angels parish, the community, the religious education program and the school. We plan to support life issues in a number of ways including education, pastoral care, spiritual efforts and activism.

We have amazing plans for the upcoming months and lots of work to do. Everyone is welcome to attend our meetings and participate! If you have questions or need further information, please contact Patti Corbitt at 773-275-8044, or visit our web site, www.respectlifechicago.com.

CONSIDER SPRED MINISTRY
Does the routine of daily life ever numb your appreciation of beauty and wonder and meaning?

Do you ever long to make your own life more meaningful and influence someone else for the better?
Do you have 24 evenings out of 365 each year to emerge from your shell, to share your stories, to be in community with others like you, and to make a difference in the life of someone special?

If this resonates with you, SPRED can offer a unique opportunity to fulfill yourself in the company of like-minded parishioners who meet weekly from September to May (not in January), to share life experiences, deepen our faith, and model the impact of faith in our lives for retarded adults in our community. Through story, music, gesture and expression, we visit the depths of our own faith and communicate God’s love for each and every person--all this while forming long-lasting friendships with very special people.

The SPRED experience at Queen of Angels is available on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday evenings to additional catechists starting this September. Please call Erika Gilfether at 773-972-0765.
