CONFIDENCE IN THE LORD We are nearing the end of the liturgical
year. Today’s readings remind us that our own lives will draw to a
close one day, and we can be certain that the Lord will encourage,
strengthen, and save us—both now and at the last. The astonishing
story of the Maccabees invigorates our faith as we behold an entire
family willing to die rather than deny the Law of Moses. The psalm
response echoes the faithful cries of the Maccabees: “I call upon
you, for you will answer me, O God.” That same confidence appears
in Saint Paul’s letter to the Thessalonians. “The Lord is
faithful,” he testifies; “he will strengthen you and guard you from
the evil one.” In the Gospel, Jesus explains just how long God’s
protection will endure. The children of God whom God guards, Jesus
says, will live forever like angels. Copyright © J. S. Paluch

PERSPECTIVE We must often draw the comparison of time and
eternity. This is the remedy of all our troubles. How small will
the present moment appear when we enter that great ocean! —St.
Elizabeth Ann Seton
PROCRASTINATION Tomorrow is always the busiest
day of the year. —Anonymous

WEEK AT A GLANCE
In God's Hands
As Catholics, we are taught to rely on God. We pray for His
guidance, and that He will watch over us. We pray that we can
discern His will to help us with our decisions.
Discern His will? That's not always easy! Complex problems,
multiple alternatives, difficult choices… God gave us free will, we
make our own choices, and often times His guidance is not obvious
or evident. There are many influences, some helpful, some not so
much, some confounding. In the end, we take in all these
influences, evaluate our choices, and pray for heavenly guidance to
make the right decision.
That's the way it is with the Renew My Church (RMC) process. The
decision-makers at the Archdiocese have the fate of St. Dismas and
St. Anastasia in their hands. What influences will they listen to?
What information are they receiving to help them make an informed
decision? How will they discern God's will?
One of the influences they are getting is the voice of the
parishioners. Our thoughts, our opinions, our desires. I truly
believe the decision-makers are listening to us. They need to know
how passionate we are, how much we care about our church, how
strongly we believe in our community, and that keeping St. Dismas
open while we unite with St. Anastasia is the best thing for the
greater community of Waukegan. The more our voices are heard, the
louder we are, the greater our influence.
My thanks and gratitude to those who submitted RMC feedback
forms. Your thoughts and concerns have been compiled and are being
shared with the decision-makers. I urge all of you to continue to
be good stewards for St. Dismas. Share your time, talent, and
treasure, as well as letting your voices be heard in support of our
church. This is just the first step, so stay tuned for more details
as the RMC process progresses.
Prayerfully yours, Mark Matias
