SUMMER MISSION CO-OP APPEAL
Next weekend, August 1-2, there will be a “second collection” for the annual Archdiocesan Summer Mission Co-Op Appeal. As I mentioned last week, due to travel restrictions during these ex-traordinary times, missionaries aren’t allowed to visit parishes to make the appeal personally, so each parish was asked to choose one missionary community from among several dozen causes. Maryknoll has been one of the premier missionary communities in the world for many, many years, and possibly one of the most familiar. So please be generous in contributing to the amazing work they do in mission lands around the world. A limited num-ber of envelopes should be available for your donations and a separate basket will be placed at the rear of church for those en-velopes. Alternately, you can contribute electronically at WeAre-Missionary.org/give. If you contribute that way, please attribute your donation to St. Joseph, Homewood, IL. Fr. Bob Here is the “talk” that a Maryknoll missionary would have pre-sented had he been given the opportunity to speak to us next weekend:
Greetings to you good and faith-ful people from the Maryknoll Fathers & Brothers. We are
grateful for this opportunity to be with you even if from a dis-tance. The Maryknoll Fathers & Brothers were founded in 1911 by the Bishops of the US Catholic Church to train, send and support missionaries from the US in overseas mission. Today Maryknoll Fathers & Brothers are active in mission ministries in 22 countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and providing mission education and missionary discipleship for-mation in the US. That is a snapshot of mission: all are welcome, all are served, especially those in great need. As Jesus fed the thousands with just a few loaves, we in mission, with the help of our support-ers, feed, serve, heal and assist those in our care in our mis-sion areas.

Around the Parish
All of us are greatly encouraged, strengthened and mobilized by St Paul’s words that nothing can separate us from the love of God in Jesus. This is a message of God’s love for all people. Those who serve directly in mission are moved to action by this promise of God’s love. The action is our mis-sion ministry which I’d like to share with you today:
Maryknoll's ministries include health care programs such as in South Sudan providing treatment for those with diseases of the eyes; care for and accompaniment of refugees; famine relief in east Africa; housing, education and care for street children in Bolivia; trauma healing ministry in Bra-zil; pastoral care for immigrants in Taiwan; educational, medical treatment and prevention pro-grams in Kenya; clean water projects; chaplaincy and prison ministries; primary evangelization in Indonesia; care for the sick poor in Bangladesh, among other ministries.
Examples of our ministries include Fr. Mike Bassano, MM who has been living and ministering in the UN Protection of Civilians Refugee Camp in Malakal, South Sudan. Fr Mike provides ac-companiment, solidarity, food assistance, joyful witness and pastoral care to those with whom he lives and ministers. In other areas of South Sudan and in neighboring Uganda, Fr. John Barth, MM is active in providing care for the blind and those with diseases of the eyes, and for others in need. In a recent email summary Fr Barth provided this update: "I've purchased supplies in the first four months of 2020 and will likely need to buy similar supplies later this year and in 2021. They include uniforms for nursery school children in the Palabek Refugee Settlement (So Suda-nese refugees taking shelter in northern Uganda); medical supplies for St. Theresa's Mission Hos-pital in St. Theresa's parish in Isohe, South Sudan and for St. Joseph's Hospital here in Kitgum, Uganda where I live. On top of these supplies I provided medical subsidies for poor refugees and poor Ugandans unable to foot the bill for medicines, tests, operations at hospitals in Uganda.”
“These services are not available in South Sudan because the medical infrastructure there is so, so weak. The average expenditure was $179 a patient. The treatments included a wide range of ill-nesses from club foot, blood tests, ulcers, Hepatitis, Malaria, typhoid, broken bones, cancer treat-ment, dental, burial expenses, gun and arrow wounds, etc., etc. Most of these cases required x-rays, lab tests and/or prescribed drugs, many of which are not available in the hospitals and have to be purchased in a pharmacy. Note: Monthly refugees receive basic food assistance from the World Food Program (9 kg of maize flour, 3 kg of dried beans, 0.63 kgs of vegetable oil and 0.15 kgs of salt, nothing more. [This is equivalent to one bowl of corn flakes (without milk) three times a day and one-half can of tuna fish per day].”
Please learn more about the Maryknoll Fathers & Brothers at: http://www.maryknollsociety.org and http://www.maryknoll.us Thank you for your prayerful support. Please also visit www.maryknollvocations.org to participate with us in God's mission. Gratefully in Christ’s mission, The Maryknoll Fathers & Brothers.

For Your Information THE ONGOING PANDEMIC: ARE WE THERE YET? by Dr. Robert Citronberg
When my kids were young, they would ask “are we there yet?” on seemingly every car ride. One of the more
common questions I receive is very similar: “when will this be over?”
While I wish I could say “really soon,” the truth is that we are nowhere near the end of this pandemic. We are
probably actually only between 15-25% down the road.
Let’s start with seroprevalence to help explain why. This is basically measuring the percentage of the popula-
tion that has already had COVID-19. We use the antibody test as a guide for this. As of today, 3.5 million
Americans have tested positive for COVID-19, equal to a little over 1% of the population. We know that many
more people have had the disease than have been tested for it (although that gap is closing with expanded
testing). Let’s assume that 10 times more people have had it than have tested positive. That means that 10-
11% of the population has already had COVID-19 which leaves 89-90% of the population susceptible. Sero-
prevalence studies done around the country have consistently shown that between 5-10% of the population
has already been infected, so the above estimates are pretty close. Therefore, the idea made popular on so-
cial media and other places that most people have already had it just isn’t true.
Measuring seroprevalence is very important in terms of the prospects of developing herd immunity, which
occurs when a substantial percentage of the population has already had the disease. The minimum percent-
age needed for effective herd immunity is about 70%, but 80-90% is much better. The two major ways to
achieve herd immunity are natural immunity (having the disease) and vaccination. While an effective vaccine
may be available by early next year (at the earliest), recent surveys have suggested that as many as 30% of
the population would not take a COVID-19 vaccine, at least not right away. Some of those people won’t take
any vaccines, others are reluctant to take a vaccine without a proven safety record. So even if an effective
vaccine becomes available, if a significant proportion of the population won’t take it then that will prolong the
development of herd immunity.
Another frequently misunderstood concept that is important to clarify is the mortality rate. When COVID-19
first hit, the early projections for the mortality rate were 5-10%. It is now clear that the mortality rate is much
lower, probably on the order of 0.5% (one in 200 people die from the disease). While that rate seems low,
which it is compared to SARS, MERS or Ebola virus, it is actually a snake in the grass. It is estimated that be-
tween 40-70% of the US population will become infected with COVID-19 before the pandemic is over. That
figure is entirely believable since no one in the world had any innate immunity to the virus before the pan-
demic. To make the math easy, let’s assume 50% of the US population becomes infected, or about 160 mil-
lion people. At a mortality rate of 0.5%, that translates to 800,000 deaths! As of today, 138,000 deaths have
been reported in the US. By comparison, seasonal influenza usually affects about 30 million Americans and
on average causes approximately 30,000 deaths, which results in a mortality rate of 0.1%. You can see that
in less than six months, there have been 4.5x more deaths from COVID-19 compared to a full season of influ-
enza. Paradoxically, viruses with lower mortality rates can actually kill more people because there is a much
better chance for spread throughout the population. And even if 99.5% of infected people don’t die, many
are severely incapacitated and may not ever recover fully.
Is it all doom and gloom? Gloom yes, doom no. Short of herd immunity (natural immunity + vaccine), what
else can we do to slow the spread? This goes back to the simple mechanics of how the virus is spread. By far
the most common route of transmission is droplet. That means the infected droplets that come out of your
mouth and nose travel approximately 6 feet before falling to the ground. Despite some recent evidence that
the droplets can travel farther than 6 feet depending on the ventilation, the six feet safety radius remains

RELIGIOUS EDUCATIONRELIGIOUS EDUCATIONRELIGIOUS EDUCATION
The archdiocese has advised
religious education programs
to develop the capacity to offer
classes in both virtual and in-
person formats. To do this we
need catechists who can teach
both virtual classes or 'at-
home formation' and in-person
classes. For in-person classes
to be executed safely we need
a new cadre of volunteers to
monitor safety measures such
as social distancing upon en-
try/exit and in the hallways,
and that all persons in the
school building are wearing
masks. Catechists and other
volunteers associated with the
religious education program
must complete archdiocese
compliance requirements in-
cluding Virtus training, man-
dated reporter training, and a
background check.
If you can help in any way
please contact Karen Shifflett
or 708-798-6311.
Thank you.
relevant and practical. Contact transmission occurs when you infect
yourself by touching your face with contaminated hands. Keeping your
hands and surfaces disinfected greatly reduces your chances of getting
the virus in that manner. There has also been recent information that
the virus may be transmitted by the airborne route, that is the virus may
linger in the air even after the person who expelled it is gone. While this
may occur in selected situations, it is believed to be an uncommon
mode of transmission. That is why social distancing and masking remain
at the forefront of our protection against COVID-19.
Masking works incredibly well primarily by protecting others from us in
case we are infected. Face coverings (including cloth and surgical
masks) are highly effective at blocking infected droplets from exiting the
mouth or nose.
Even if there are concerns about droplets traveling farther than 6 feet or
airborne spread of the virus, wearing a mask remains extremely effective
in preventing both. There is now additional scientific evidence that wear-
ing a mask also provides a level of protection to the wearer. There is no
credible scientific evidence to suggest that masks are harmful or in any
way impede breathing. Therefore, universal masking is a win-win for the
prevention of COVID-19 infection. Both sickness and mortality can be
greatly impacted by this simple intervention.
A friend recently explained to me the three reasons why they wear a
mask in public, and it’s worth sharing: 1) humility – I don’t know if I have
COVID since we know people can spread the disease before having
symptoms 2) kindness – I don’t know if the person I am near has an eld-
erly parent or a child battling cancer and 3) community – I want my com-
munity to thrive, businesses to stay open, employees to stay healthy.
Although the road is long, it can still be navigated, and we will get there.

Gospel Reading
Matthew 13:44-52
Jesus teaches about the Kingdom of Heaven.
BACKGROUND ON THE GOSPEL READING
Today’s Gospel concludes three weeks of readings from the 13th Chapter of Matthew’s Gospel. Throughout
these three weeks we have heard Jesus teaching crowds about the kingdom of heaven, and we have heard
Jesus interpret some of his teachings for the disciples. In this week’s Gospel, Jesus offers three more short
parables.
The first two parables describe the great value of the kingdom of heaven. In the first parable, Jesus says that
the kingdom of heaven is like a buried treasure that is worth possessing even if it means giving up everything
else. In the second parable, Jesus proposes that the kingdom of heaven is like a pearl of great worth for
which one will sell everything else to possess. These parables teach us that we are to place everything we
value in the service of the pursuit of the Kingdom of God.
The third parable that Jesus proposes in today’s Gospel is different from the first two, but it is reminiscent of
the parable of the sower heard in last week’s Gospel. The kingdom of heaven is compared to fishing with a
wide net. After the fish have been collected, the good fish are kept and the bad fish are thrown away; so too,
in the final judgment, will the wicked and the righteous be separated.
Today’s Gospel concludes with a curious statement about the scribe who understands the kingdom of
heaven. Here a metaphor is offered: this scribe is like the head of a household who “brings from his store-
room both the new and the old.” The scribes referred to here are experts of Mosaic law. It is possible that Je-
sus is here instructing the early Christian community on how to proceed in the interpretation of Jewish law
with respect to Jesus’ “new” teaching. Jesus’ teaching about the kingdom of heaven does not replace the
Jewish tradition; it interprets it in a different light.

Growing with the Gospel
GOSPEL: MT 13:44-52
Jesus said to his disciples: “The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried
in a field, which a person finds and hides again, and out of joy goes and sells
all that he has and buys that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a mer-
chant searching for fine pearls. When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes
and sells all that he has and buys it. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a
net thrown into the sea, which collects fish of every kind. When it is full they
haul it ashore and sit down to put what is good into buckets. What is bad they
throw away. Thus it will be at the end of the age. The angels will go out and
separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace,
where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth. “Do you understand all
these things?” They answered, “Yes.” And he replied, “Then every scribe who
has been instructed in the kingdom of heaven is like the head of a household
who brings from his storeroom both the new and the old.”
