Dear Friends In Christ,
Wednesday of this week will mark another anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision
in Roe v. Wade. For 47 years in this country, it has been legal for a woman to have an abortion for an
unwanted pregnancy. As Catholics, we understand that this anniversary is not one to
be celebrated, but rather mourned. The last 47 years have seen just under 62 million abortions per-
formed in the United States alone, and more than 1.5 billion worldwide. While these
numbers cause us great pain and sadness, they should also spur us on in our continued efforts to
fight against the evils of abortion. St. John Paul II wrote,
     "Every individual, precisely by reason of the mystery of the Word of God who was made flesh (cf. Jn 1:14),
     is entrusted to the maternal care of the Church. Therefore every threat to human dignity and life must
     necessarily be felt in the Church's very heart; it cannot but affect her at the core of her faith in the
     Redemptive Incarnation of the Son of God, and engage her in her mission of proclaiming the Gospel of
     life in all the world and to every creature (cf. Mk 16:15)." (Evangelium Vitae, 3)
St. John Paul II reminds us that it is our mission to proclaim the Gospel of Life to the entire world. When we hear about
the loss of so many innocent lives it can be easy to be tempted toward pessimism and discouragement. However, this is
not our call! Jesus Christ calls us to stand up for those who cannot stand up for themselves. We know of the great love
that Jesus has in his Heart for the innocent and childlike, and it is our duty to love them as well. It is with that love in
our hearts that we continue our efforts to rid the world of the evils of abortion. As Catholics and those who love the
unborn, we are called to pray, act, speak, and vote in such a way that stands up for the safety and dignity of every human
person, from conception to natural death. The Catholic Church stands as a place of true guidance and support for all
women, and especially for those who are experiencing a difficult pregnancy. We, as members of the Church, should do
our best to support organizations that help women choose life and that assist them during and after their pregnancy.
I would also like to highlight the specific role that men have in this effort. It is the duty of all men to respect and protect
the women and children in their lives. By treating women with love and respect, men show them the love of Christ and
affirm the dignity which is theirs. Men are called to be spiritual leaders, and we need the leadership of good men,
husbands, and fathers now more than ever in the world. I encourage all of us to continue this fight until justice is
established for the most vulnerable among us.
With that in mind, I would like to ask all of you to pray an extra Rosary this week for three intentions:
    1. For the end of abortion in our country and the world.
    2. For all of those children who have lost their lives
       through abortion.
    3. For all of the women and families that have been hurt
        through abortion.
Let us claim the special help and protection of our Blessed Mother
as we continue to strive to fulfill our mission to spread the Gospel
of Life to the ends of the earth. Our Lady of Fatima, Pray for us!
In Christ, Fr. Gonnella

                       Adult Confirmation Program is Starting February 13, 2020
                       This program is for adults (18 years and older) who are interested in receiving
                          the Sacrament of Confirmation. Many Catholics have been baptized and
                      have received their First Holy Communion, but have not received Confirmation.
                          We will begin a seven week preparation program beginning on Thursday,
                          February 13, 2020. The Classes will take place on the Crane Road Campus
     from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. We will meet on seven consecutive Thursdays. Those who participate will
    receive the Sacrament of Confirmation at the Easter Vigil on the evening of Saturday, April 11, 2020.
The instructors for the sessions will be the parish priests, along with Deacon Mike Smith and Mike Alber
  who is preparing to become a Permanent Deacon. We will be providing an overview of Catholicism,
with a special emphasis on the Sacrament of Confirmation. To sign up, or for more information, please
     contact Jenny in the parish office at 630-338-8013 or by email at jhansen@stpatrickparish.org.

                                              in the Father Carse Center of the Downtown Church
                    The book is entitled "The Line Becomes a River" by Francisco Cantu.
                 The author, who is Mexican and an immigrant himself, had been a border patrol agent.
                 The author's rich prose and deep empathy make this an indispensable look at one of our
                 country's most divisive issues. We have a very good facilitator and all are welcome to attend.

Infertility can be a very heavy and painful cross to bear. Being able to express the frustration, fears, and feelings
  of this journey, yet not knowing how Church Doctrine guides us, can add additional stress. To address these
needs, St. Peter Church is pleased to announce the launch of a new ministry. The Nonnatus Ministry is a support
         program for all couples struggling with the inability to conceive, to help you find peace and wisdom.
   We meet the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM. There is no charge for participation.
