The truly obedient person is concerned only with the work of true obedience, obeying purely for God's sake and as with much reverence as if he had received his orders from the lips of Jesus. The more humble the command in human eyes, the more precious is devout obedience in the eyes of God. The truly obedient person fears more to be lacking in obedience than to run the risk of bodily death; after the example of our blessed Saviour Jesus Christ, of whom St. Bernard wrote, saying: remember, that Jesus Christ much rather preferred to lose his life through his bitter Passion, than to fail in obedience to God his Father. (Testament of St. Colette)” Sometimes I do have a judgmental attitude. I find myself being harder on the people I don’t like than on those I do like. My feelings do impact the way how I judge others. It is something I need to work on and, most of all, be aware of. When I did my Myer-Briggs Personality test at the beginning of the seminary, 15 years ago, the weakest point of my character was obedience. This is still hard for me. My mind can be very independent and stubborn. However, it is not the case with everything. I’m very fine with GPS giving me directions. Again, what the Testament is challenging me with is being aware of my judgmental and obedience tendencies and exceptions that I make regarding these two. I have been back from Guatemala for the last week. I am still a little behind with work. I’m glad it is summer. The parish is a bit slower this time of year which is good. I can take time to do things and not have to rush with everything. Finally, the roofers have started their work this week. On Wednesday, I had a meeting with the Maintenance Committee and we looked at the parish needs. We will have a few more projects that need to be looked at before winter. Summer and fall are great times to make some building improvements. I want to say “Thank You” to all who support To Teach Who Christ Is.

La persona verdaderamente obediente se ocupa sólo de la obra de la verdadera obediencia, obedeciendo puramente por amor de Dios y con tanta reverencia como si hubiera recibido sus órdenes de los labios de Jesús. Cuanto más humilde el mandamiento en los ojos humanos, más preciosa es la obediencia devota a los ojos de Dios. La persona verdaderamente obediente teme que falte más en obediencia que correr el riesgo de muerte corporal; Según el ejemplo de nuestro bendito Salvador Jesucristo, de quien escribió San Bernardo, diciendo: Recuerda que Jesucristo prefirió mucho perder su vida a través de su amarga Pasión, que faltar en la obediencia a Dios su Padre. (Testamento de Santa Colette) " A veces tengo una actitud crítica. Me encuentro siendo más difícil con la gente que no me gusta que con los que me gusta. Mis sentimientos afectan la forma en que juzgo a los demás. Es algo en lo que tengo que trabajar y, sobre todo, ser consciente de eso. Cuando hice mi prueba de personalidad Myer-Briggs al principio del seminario, hace 15 años, el punto más débil de mi carácter era la obediencia. Esto todavía es difícil para mí. Mi mente puede ser muy independiente y terca. Sin embargo, no es el caso en todo. Me siento muy bien que el GPS me de direcciones. Una vez más, lo que el Testamento me está desafiando hacer es ser consciente de mis tendencias de juicio y obediencia y las excepciones que hago con respecto a estos dos. He estado de regreso de Guatemala desde hace una semana. Todavía estoy un poco atrasado con el trabajo. Me alegro de que sea verano. La parroquia es un poco más lenta en esta época del año, lo cual es bueno. Puedo tomar tiempo para hacer las cosas y no tener que apresurarme con todo. Por último, los techadores han comenzado su trabajo esta semana. El miércoles tuve una reunión con el Comité de Mantenimiento y estudiamos las necesidades de la parroquia. Tendremos algunos proyectos más que necesitan ser vistos antes del invierno. Verano y otoño son grandes momentos para hacer algunas mejoras en el edificio. Quiero decir "Gracias" a todos los que apoyan la campaña capital, Enseñar Quien Es Cristo.

Page 9: First Friday Adoration– Adoración cada Primer Viernes del mes

Eucharistic Adoration

On the first Friday of each month, St. Colette Parish has Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Adoration begins after 8:00 a.m. Mass and ends with Benediction at 5:00 p.m. It is held in the Chapel. Come and visit for ten minutes or one hour. All are welcome. This week while meditating on a story of St. Augustine and contemplating the mystery of the Holy Trinity it seemed to me that God’s gift to us is a beau-tifully simple but wonderfully complex one. St. Augustine was supposedly walking on the beach, contemplating the mystery of the Holy Trinity in order to understand it. He spotted a young boy go-ing back and forth with a shell full of water and pour-ing it into a hole in the sand. He asked the boy what he was doing. The boy told him that he was bringing all the sea into the hole. St. Augustine naturally told the boy that it was impossible. The boy sweetly an-swered that it was no more impossible than Augustine trying to comprehend the enormity of the mystery of the Trinity with his small human mind. He then van-ished while Augustine was looking away trying to ab-sorb what he had said. The boy, possibly an angel sent by God or perhaps the boy Jesus himself, gave St. Augustine a needed lesson in humility. St. Augustine later sermonized, “If you think you have grasped Him, it is not God you have grasped.” So, perhaps we can stop for a moment and enjoy the simple fact that God, who seems at times complex, who has made the heavens and the earth, loves us. He is Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and alt-hough we cannot grasp all that He is, or the great mystery of God; scripture tells us that God is fully and completely loving, and He holds us in the palm of His hand. So, today let us not over think the great mys-tery of His love but enjoy in simplicity of being loved by God. God is with us. Let us give Him thanks and praise. Oh come let us adore Him.

Adoración Eucarística

El primer viernes de cada mes, tenemos Adoración del Santísimo Sacramento. La adoración comienza después de la misa de 8:00 am y termina con la Bendición a las 5:00 p.m. Se celebra en la Capilla. Ven y visita por diez minutos o una hora. Todos son bienvenidos. Esta semana, al meditando en una historia de San Agustín y contemplando el misterio de la Santísima Trinidad, me pareció que el regalo de Dios para nosotros es una cosa simple pero maravillosamente compleja. Se cuenta que San Agustín caminaba en la playa contemplando el misterio de la Santísima Trinidad para comprenderlo. Vio a un niño que iba y venía con una cáscara llena de agua y la vertía en un agujero en la arena. Le preguntó qué estaba haciendo. El niño le dijo que estaba trayendo todo el mar al agujero. San Agustín, naturalmente, le dijo al niño que era imposible. El niño respondió dulcemente que esto no era más imposible que Agustín tratando de comprender la enormidad del misterio de la Trinidad con su pequeña mente humana. Luego se desapareció mientras Agustín miraba hacia otro lado tratando de absorber lo que había dicho. El niño, posiblemente un ángel enviado por Dios o tal vez el niño Jesús, le dio a San Agustín una lección necesaria de humildad. Más tarde san Agustín pregonó: “Si cree que lo han comprendido, no es Dios el que han comprendido “. Por lo tanto, tal vez podamos detenernos por un momento y disfrutar del simple hecho de que Dios, que parece a veces complejo, que ha hecho los cielos y la tierra, nos ama. Él es Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo, y aunque no podemos comprender todo lo que Él es, o el gran misterio de Dios; La escritura nos dice que Dios es completamente amoroso, y Él nos sostiene en la palma de Su mano. Así pues, hoy no pensemos más en el gran misterio de Su amor, sino disfrutemos en la simplicidad de ser por Dios. Dios esta con nosotros. Demosle gracias y alabanza. Oh vayamos a adorarlo.

Introducing...GiveCentral!

St. Colette Parish has begun accepting online donations through GiveCentral, our new online

donation service. GiveCentral is a safe, secure, and paperless way to make your Sunday offertory and

other contributions.

It was designed specifically for Catholic churches and schools in the Chicago area, and many other par-ishes in our Diocese have already found success with

it. The site allows you to make a one time or auto-matically repeating payments on a schedule that
