33 Days to Morning Glory

Eighteen People decided to begin a spiritual journey on Marian consecration on September 4. The consecration for that will group will be on Monday, October 7 at the 8:30 am Mass. We will read the prayer of consecration after communion and have a light breakfast celebration in the narthex. We will begin a second 33 Day Morning Glory retreat on Thursday, Oct. 17 after the 8:30 am Mass. Consecration will be on Thursday, November 21 at the 8:30 am Mass. We will meet every Thursday in the PLC for one hour to go over reflections and DVD. The cost is $30 for the book and retreat manual. If you already made your consecration and would like to come to the Thursday morning gatherings to participate with the manual the cost will $15. Please call Eileen Maggiore at 630-396-6076 or email eileen@ctklombard.org.

Presentation of the Gifts

At the beginning of the Liturgy of the Eucharist, the bread and wine are brought to the altar. This action begins the preparation of the offerings for Mass. Gifts are brought up in procession by the faithful, who hand them to the priest or deacon. If you would like to take part in this procession of the gifts, please see one of the church ushers at least 10-15 minutes prior to mass. You can also request to do it on specific dates if you know there is a special occasion drawing near.

Bowing at Communion
Before receiving Communion, each person is asked to make a gesture of reverence, which is a slight bow of the head. This small gesture invites us to slow down and to think about what we are doing while humbly acknowledging Christ, present in the Eucharist. Since receiving Communion is something that we do every week (or maybe every day), it can become routine. Our bow of the head and our response of Amen when the minister says The Body of Christ, The Blood of Christ remind us that this is anything but routine. Jesus ChristGod Made Manfeeds us with his own Body and Blood! We recall his Passion and remember that God is not relegated to the past, but walks with us each and every day.

Year of Faith: Catechism Corner

The Churchs love for the poor... is a part of her constant tradition. This love is inspired by the Gospel of the Beatitudes, of the poverty of Jesus, and of his concern for the poor. Love for the poor is even one of the motives for the duty of working so as to be able to give to those in need. It extends not only to material poverty but also to the many forms of cultural and religious poverty. (CCC, n. 2444)

Council Membership and Leadership

Section 1. Council Membership. The members of the Pastoral Council shall consist of the pastor, and two representatives from each commission who are selected annual by their commissions. Also, each core team shall be represented at Council by one member. Additionally, the Parish Council may, at its discretion, add up to two (2) at-large members. These at-large members come from the congregation, and are not representative of any specific commission or core team. Council leadership consists of a chairperson, a vice-chairperson, and a recording secretary, each selected by the Council and the pastor. The Council is assisted in its deliberations by a staff representative. Section 2. Selection of Council Members. Eligible for election are all registered members of the parish in good standing, ineligible are employees of the parish and their families. Also, no two (2) members of a family may serve together on the council. If a Council member leaves the council, the respective commission shall appoint someone to complete that term. Council membership is for two (2) years, with a, option for a third year. Terms of membership should not be consecutive. Council members will be selected as needed each year by the discernment of each commission, core team or the council. Section 3. Pastoral Council Leadership. The work of the Council shall be guided by a chairperson, assisted by the pastor. The chairperson shall be selected annually by the council at the beginning of the first regular Council meeting after June 1st each year, when new members are seated. After the selection of the chairperson, the Council shall also select a vice-chairperson and a recording secretary, at the beginning of the first regular Council meeting after June 1st each year. All Council members are eligible for selection to the offices of chairperson, vice-chairperson, and recording secretary, with the provision that they can only directly succeed themselves in the same office once. Upon selection as Council Chairperson, that individual should be deemed a member at large. If that person was on the Council as a representative of a Commission or Core Team, then that Commission or Core Team should select another representative to maintain its allotted number of positions at the Council. Section 4. Duties of Council Leadership. The chairperson shall conduct the meetings of the Council and prepare the agenda in consultation with the pastor. The vice-chairperson will conduct the Council meetings in the absence of the chairperson, and assist the chairperson in whatever duties are deemed necessary. The recording secretary will take notes at the meeting, be responsible for the distribution of the minutes to the members of the Council, of drafting a notice of each meeting for the congregation, and a summary of the Councils meeting for distribution to the congregation. Section 5. Council Meetings. The Council shall meet in the course of bi-monthly parish leadership evenings and whenever else seems appropriate to the Council members. The agenda and the minutes of the prior meeting shall be distributed at least one week prior to the Council meeting. A simple majority of Council members is necessary to conduct a meeting. Each Council member has one consultative vote, but consensus should be the goal of all Council deliberations. Council meetings are usually private, but on given occasions, the Council leadership may invite someone else to make a presentation to the Council. Christ the King Parish Pastoral Council Meeting will be held on Tuesday, October 1, 2013 at 7pm in the Academy. If you have any questions, or are interested in joining the Parish Pastoral Council, please call Fr Peter Jarosz at 630-629-1717 or email frpeter@ctklombard.org.

Stewardship Prayer for September

Lord Jesus Christ, As we begin to shift from Summer schedules to Autumn demands, teach us to recognize you, and help us follow you amidst our busy life. Open the Scriptures to us that we may know you, see you, hear you in the voices of friends and family, in the ministries of our parish, in the proclamation of the Word, and in the Breaking of the Bread. Teach us to be good stewards, that we may use your gifts wisely and care for all those you place in our path. Encourage us, when we are overwhelmed. Strengthen us, when we are frightened. Challenge our complacency. Help us make this new season a time of spiritual renewal, hope, and action to proclaim the Gospel in our words and in our deeds. For the kingdom and the power and the glory are yours, now and forever. Amen. Inspired by a prayer from Rev. Tim Piasecki, Diocese of Rockford, Illinois

Please help us meet our budget goal! Every dollar counts. Thank you for your continued support and dedication to Christ the King Parish. Fr Peter Jarosz

A STEWARDSHIP MOMENT
In Jesus parable of the Unjust Steward, we encounter a financial manager who has wasted his masters wealth and faces dismissal from his position. To overcome the crisis confronting him, the steward reduces some very considerable debts owed by poor neighbors to his master in order to help them out. Though the steward has sinned against God and his master by squandering what belongs to someone else, both the prudent way in which he goes about resolving the crisis coupled with relieving people who are in need can be seen as a way to better steward the gifts entrusted to us by God. Although good stewards today acknowledge that they may never use their God-given gifts in a way that completely conforms to the demands of the Gospel, a commitment to using their gifts with prudence and for the purpose of helping their neighbors wins Gods favor.
