A Note From The Pastor… Last Friday, on September 30th, we had our Annual
OktoberFest. It was a great turnout, and good fellowship
was enjoyed by all. Big thanks to the Our Lady of Humility
Women’s Club, the Our Lady of Humility Knights of
Columbus, and any other volunteers for facilita$ng this
event which required so much effort and coordina$on. This
event could not happen without them.
Last Saturday, October 1st, we had our first Student
Par$cipa$on Mass of the academic year. As we are doing
Mass counts during the month of October, I see that 299
people a#ended the Mass — a great turnout. The
a#endance at the subsequent Potluck Dinner was probably
the best since I have been here at Our Lady of Humility.
Special thanks to those who coordinated and volunteered so
generously to make this happen. Again, such events could
not happen without them.
This past Friday, October 7th, we celebrated the Memorial of Our Lady of The Rosary. This
celebra$on recalls the Victory at the Ba#le of Lepanto on Sunday, October 7, 1571. Chris$an
naval forces assembled to meet a much larger fleet of invading Muslim forces, many of whom
were Chris$an slaves captured by Muslims in earlier ba#les. Prior to this great ba#le,
Pope St. Pius V urged Europe to Pray the Rosary for the victory.
I invite everyone to learn more about the Rosary, and consider praying it every day: Unleash
the power of this calming medita$ve prayer in your life. During the month of October, there will
be many opportuni$es to pray and learn more about the Rosary.
We will have our fi*h Sunday of the month Rosary Service on Sunday, October 30th, following
the 9AM Mass. The Legion of Mary is also sponsoring a Daily Rosary during the month of
October – please see this bulle$n for details.
There will be a Public Square Rosary in Zion to Pray for our Na$on next Saturday,
October 15th, at 12 Noon. The local Public Square Rosary Rally will take place at the Zion Park
District (located on Elisha and 25th Street).
There will be a Rosary Making Workshop next Sunday at Donut Sunday. A teacher will be
available from 9AM to 12 Noon to illustrate and instruct on how to make a Kno#ed Cord Rosary.
All are welcome.
Congratula$ons to Jerry and Marie Pope who are celebra$ng their 55th Wedding Anniversary,
and to Jose and Barb Arreguin who are celebra$ng their 60th Wedding Anniversary!
God Bless,
Fr. Paul

6 Welcome to Our Lady of Humility Catholic Church
Rosary Making Workshop The Legion of Mary will host one more Rosary Making Workshop
this year, and it will be this month, October, which is the month of the
Holy Rosary.
We invite anyone who is interested in learning to make a Kno"ed
Cord Rosary to the next Donut Sunday, next Sunday, October 16th. Our teacher will be
available from 9AM-12 Noon to demonstrate the technique. (An experienced person can
make an en$re Rosary in approximately one hour.) We also invite those who joined us last
$me to come again, and make more Rosaries. We have ten different kinds of twine
available. We will be dona$ng all the Rosaries made with Christmas twine to the Our Lady of Humility Women’s
Club for their Holiday Bazaar. Rosaries you make for us will be donated to various groups and individuals who
request them. However, you are also welcome to make Rosaries to give away to people you know personally.
Our Lady is pleased when we teach others to Pray Her Rosary. She wants to shower the world with graces, but
needs our prayers in order to be able to do so. And what a be#er way to encourage people to Pray the Rosary,
then by giving them a Rosary you made with your own hands.
(If you have been saving crucifixes from broken Rosaries, and want to donate them to a good cause, we would
be happy to accept and repurpose them.)
Nine Reasons to Pray the Rosary Daily:
1. For World Peace.
2. As a means for calling down God’s blessing upon the family.
3. For courage in facing the hardships of life.
4. As a steady means of nurturing and persevering in the Faith.
5. For healing the evils of our day.
6. For learning Chris$an perfec$on.
7. For success in one’s voca$on in life.
8. As a powerful means of obtaining graces from God.
9. To grow in holiness, and enjoy the special protec$on of Our Lady.
If you have any ques$ons or need more informa$on, please call Mari at (847) 596-2150.
Knights Of Columbus Rosary Service The Knights of Columbus are hos$ng a fi*h Sunday of the month Rosary Service
on Sunday, October 30th, following the 9AM Mass. All are invited to join us in
praying for “A Greater Respect For All Human Life”. Mark your calendars now.
The Recita$on of the Rosary is granted a Plenary Indulgence (under the usual
condi$ons) if it is recited in a Church. The gaining of the Plenary Indulgence is
regulated by these norms:
· Five (5) decades of the Rosary must be prayed con$nuously.
· The prayers of the Rosary must be prayed vocally, and one must meditate upon the Mysteries of the Rosary.
· If the recita$on of the Rosary is public, the Mysteries of the Rosary must be announced.
If the above condi$ons are not fulfilled, the indulgence is only par$al.

your hearts, and help us make it successful. We are

have the same Baskets as in the past, and possibly
adding a Handyman’s Gi* Basket; yet it all depends
on the dona$ons we receive. Any Thanksgiving/

Baskets would be greatly appreciated. We will keep
you informed of specific items we need for our Gi* Baskets.
Please bring your donated items to the Rectory, and the staff will hold on

A Taste Of Heaven
Awaits Us In
Eucharis!c Adora!on! Indeed, Earth is joined to
Heaven each $me we are united with the
Saints and Angels in extolling God, Who,
in worship we see, if not with the sight of
eyes, then with the eyes of faith.
We are called to abide in the
Eucharis$c Presence of our Lord, like the
Saints and Angels do in Heaven, as they
behold the glory of God, and sing His
Praise! The Saints and Angels wait upon
the Lord, and do His Will in all things.
Their presence magnifies the Lord. They
also intercede for us before the Lord.
When we look upon the Sacred Host,
we look at Jesus, the Son of God. Do we
see Him in all His glory and majesty? Do
our lips proclaim His praise? Do our souls
magnify the Lord – making Him clearer,
more in focus, and larger to others around
us? Do we place the needs of others
before Him? Are we open to the Will of
God, and strive for perfec!on in our
spiritual lives so that we, too, may one
day join the company of Saints in Heaven?
It is at this moment when we are most
in$mately in communion with God that
we experience a taste of Heaven, a
foreshadowing of what it will be like,
when, by God’s grace, we enter into
everlas$ng life. “Indeed, this is the will of
My Father, that everyone who looks upon
the Son and believes in Him, shall have
eternal life. Him I will raise up on the last
day.” (–Jn 6:40).
Do something special this Fall, please
consider coming to Eucharis$c Adora$on
on Thursdays at 1PM, where you will
have an opportunity to spend $me with
the Lord Jesus, in the Blessed Sacrament
each week where we can ASK HIM
anything. Come, bring your whole
family, spend some $me with the Lord,
and receive His blessings! He is wai$ng
for you!
We are in need of commi#ed Adorers
for every Thursday from 1-2PM and
3-4PM. If you are able to commit to
these hours, please let Marijo know.

need someone to listen. Some$mes they need a shoulder to cry on. Will you be
that friend?
When I sat down next to my friend a*er the funeral recep$on was over, the raw pain in her eyes tore into my heart.
She had just lost her teenage daughter. My friend’s story was heavy with pain. Her daughter had made the choice to
end her life. So we sat, with just quietness between us. A*er a few minutes, she spoke: “You know, this isn’t my
church.” “When we called the church to tell them of the daughter’s death, they said that they’d come to us, but they
never did. So we went elsewhere. It was just too painful to be in a place where they obviously didn’t care about us.” I
don’t believe my friend’s church doesn’t care. Most likely someone dropped the ball en$rely by accident. But what I
really wonder is where was the safety net of the church community? Afflic$on comes in many forms. We don’t wear
our heartache as visible, but we know how much pain is out there. We can’t answer all the ques$ons about the
suffering, but we can say: “I see it, and most important, I see you, I won’t let this pain swallow you or overwhelm you.”
Isn’t this the example that the Blessed Mother gave us? She didn’t shield her eyes when her Son was stripped,
beaten, and crucified. She pressed into the suffering, and stayed by His side. This is how we are asked to live.
“Comfort, comfort My people, says your God.” (–Isaiah 40:1). What a privilege it is that He trusts and calls us to be a
part of this ministry of comfort.
“Lord, open my eyes to see the invisible wounds people carry. Help us to look grace-healed eyes that search deeper,
that pause, that step closer when an aching heart is near.”
There is no Christmas present under the tree that will have the kind of life-changing impact that the gi* of our
comfor$ng presence offers. –Submi#ed by Irene Halteman
