ALIVIO DE DESASTRES Y HURACANES
DISASTER RELIEF
Request from our Bishop John
Since our special collection for the victims of
Hurricane Harvey, we have seen Hurricanes
Irma and Maria hit Florida, Puerto Rico, and
other islands in the Caribbean. Another devas-
tating earthquake occurred in Mexico.
In all, hundreds are dead and thousands have lost their homes. If you would like to help,
you can donate to Catholic Charities (www.catholiccharitiesusa.org), which is helping vic-
tims in the U.S., or Catholic Relief Services (www.crs.org), which is working with those
Mexico and the Caribbean. You can also write a check to the parish for this purpose and we
will send it on. Thanks you and please keep in your prayers all of those suffering from these
disasters.

My sheep hear my voice, says the Lord,
I know them and they follow me.
The 150th anniversary of Catholic presence in both the Unionville and Milan communities is rapidly approaching. In recognition of that event, the church in Milan, which has not been updated in more than 35 years, will undergo signifi-cant renewal and renovation. In particu-lar, renovation of the sanctuary ceiling requires use of an alternate site to cele-brate mass during these upgrades. For the next several weeks, mass will be cele-brated at the regularly scheduled times, in the Bread of Life Church on Route C just East of Milan. If you choose to attend mass in Milan during these next weeks, please remember this change of location. All other activi-ties continue in the St. Mary basement.

(CRUX) New York Cardinal Timothy Dolan suggested to more than 400 priests of the state of Louisiana that humbly and openly sharing the “wounds” and shortcomings of the church might bring those who are alienated back to the practice of the faith. Using the image of the church as “our supernatural family, which we, as priests, are called to image,” Dolan told the Louisiana Priests’ Convention that human weakness has been a part of the church from the beginning. “The church is not just our family - it’s also a dysfunctional family,” he said Sept. Dolan, who spoke on the theme of “Shepherding Today as Priest, Proph-et and King,” said in the jubilee year of 2000, St. John Paul II “apologized publicly” 54 times for “the specific sins of the church.” “That’s more than once a week,” Dolan said. “And Pope Francis surely has done so.” The cardinal said while the world is “ever ready to headline the flaws of the church,” the dynamic changes when “her loyal members are more than willing to own up to them.” If that happens, people estranged from the church “might just take a second look,” he said.Their favorite carica-ture of the church is as a corrupt, arro-gant, self-righteous, judgmental hypo-
crite,” Dolan said. “I sure don’t have any problem admitting that, at times, it can be tough to love the church be-cause of her imperfections. The mys-tical body of Christ has lots of warts.” However, Dolan noted, it is clear from the Acts of the Apostles, in par-ticular the conversion of St. Paul, that “Jesus Christ and his church are in-separable.” When Saul was blinded and knocked off his horse on his way to Damascus, Dolan said, the voice he heard was, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” “He didn’t say, ‘Why do you per-secute my people?’ Nope. ‘My fol-lowers?’ Nope. ‘My disciples?’ Nope. To be rather blunt, Jesus and his church are the same. Christ and his church are one. Jesus Christ and his church are synonymous,” the cardinal continued. “My brother priests, as we consid-er the priesthood, preserving the unity of Christ and his church is perhaps the most significant pastoral challenge we shepherds face today,” Dolan said. “I’m not telling you anything (new) - you’re all on the front lines. The dom-inant opinion and sentiment that we face today is, ‘We want Christ; we want nothing to do with that stupid church.'” A YouTube video “Why I hate reli-gion but love Jesus” - “went viral with
(Flaws continued) 27 million views” because of that sentiment, he said. “Such is the popular and the suc-cessful crusade now to annul the spousal bond between Christ and his bride, the church,” Dolan said. “We hear this all the time, right? ‘I prefer spirituality to religion; I want the Lord as my shepherd, as long as I’m the only one there; I want Christ as my king in a kingdom of one; I’ll believe, I won’t belong; God is my father, and I’m the only child; Jesus is my gen-eral, but there’s no army.’ They want Christ without his church. “We live in a world that often considers belief in God a private hobby, at best, a dangerous ideology, at worst,” Do-lan said. “The church is considered superstitious, irrational, backwards, useless, counterproductive, out of it. So, what do we do, my fellow muse-um pieces?” Dolan said the late columnist Jim-my Breslin once wrote: “We Catholics might not be very good at being mem-bers of the church, but we never leave. We’re all just one chest pain away from going back. “Not anymore, I’m afraid,” Dolan said. “I don’t know about you, but every time the Pew Research Center puts out a new study, every time the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate announces more statistics, I, as a priest, a shep-herd, a prophet and a king, hold my breath because the percentage of peo-ple who claim to be ex-Catholic or ‘none’ rises a couple of points.” If people with a cynical view of the church experience priests who “prize humility” and are “contrite and eager” to reform the flaws, then they may begin to view the church as “a warm, tender, inviting family.” “If we’re not afraid as priests to show our wounds - the wounds of the church, the wounds of our family - maybe the other wounded will come back,” Dolan said.
