OLD ST. MARY’S CHURCH
Our Parish Mission
Founded in 1833, Old St. Mary’s parish is the first
Catholic parish in the Chicago area. Guided for
more than a century by the vision of the Paulist
Fathers, we are a diverse and welcoming community
dedicated to serving the spiritual needs of the South
Loop and greater Chicago area.
As a unified Church and School community, Old St.
Mary’s Parish promotes the mission of the Paulist
Fathers to welcome those who have been away from
the church, to build bridges of respect and
collaboration with people of diverse backgrounds
and religions, and to promote justice and healing in
our society.

Old St. Mary’s is
wheelchair accessible.
Large print missalettes are available near
the entrance. Please return them after Mass.
Special hosts are available in the
sacristy for those who are gluten
intolerant.
Do you have difficulty walking to
the front of the church for
communion?
Please ask an usher to let the communion ministers know
where you are so the ministers can bring communion to
you. Receiving the Body of Christ is too important to miss
out. The ministers do scan the congregation, so if you
forget to let an usher know, put your hand up so they can
see you. We want to accommodate you.

GOD’S WORD TODAY
The Easter season is a time of mystagogy. Mystagogy is
an ancient word that simply means “unfolding the
mysteries.” During the Easter season, the Church
unfolds the mysteries of Christ’s passion, death, and
resurrection so that the newly baptized, along with the
entire community of believers, can grasp more fully the
meaning of the paschal mystery. Today’s scriptures offer
a lesson in mystagogy for us all. Jesus’ place in salvation
history is recounted by Saint Peter in the first reading
and interpreted by Jesus himself in the Gospel passage.
Like students who sit at the feet of their master, let us
gather around the table of God’s word, asking God to
open our hearts and minds to a renewed sense of the
meaning of the paschal mystery in our lives.

We welcome the following
new parishioners to the

From the
Pastor’s Desk
Dear member of the Old St.
Mary community,
Did you know that we have parish boundaries?
They are 18th St. to the south, Lake Michigan to
the east and the Chicago River to the north and
west. That is quite an area! Of course, Old St.
Peter’s Shrine Church is also within those
boundaries and serves many people, but it is
technically not a parish. Also we know that
many people living within our boundaries
attend Old St. Patrick’s, Saint James, Holy
Name Cathedral, or some other parish to which
they are drawn.
We know, too, that many who live outside of
our official boundaries attend OSM. They are
most welcome here. It is helpful to us,
however, to know who our parishioners really
are. So whether you live within the parish
boundaries or not, if you attend OSM
regularly, please register. This can be done
online at our website www.oldstmarys.com or
by using a hardcopy form available in the
Commons.
There are many exciting events that happen
within our parish boundaries which would be
of special interest to our parishioners. One
such event coming up is Sr. Helen Prejean’s
April 23 appearance at the Chicago Public
Library. I hope many of our parishioners turn
out to see and hear her. I have heard her speak
in the past and can attest that she is a dynamic
presenter. You will be glad you went. You will
see an item with more details elsewhere in this
week’s bulletin. We will be keeping an eye out
for other events that take place in our
neighborhood that we think would interest our
parishioners
Sincerely,
DID YOU ATTEND ST. DOROTHY
CHURCH OR SCHOOL??
St. Dorothy Church (450 E 78th St. Chicago) will celebrate its
100th Jubilee in June 2016! They are looking for information
on past members or graduates — And looking for
memorabilia from pre-1960 especially. Please contact them
with your information or materials. The jubilee website (with
email) is www.stdorothyjubilee.org or call 773-651-7000.

Sr. Helen Prejean, CSJ,
author of Dead Man Walking, will
be speaking at the Chicago Public
Library, 400 S. State St. on
Thursday, April 23 from 6:00 pm to
8:00 pm. Sr. Helen’s book, first
published in 1993, inspired the film
of the same name. Over 20 years
later and with capital punishment still legal in 32
states and for some federal crimes, Sr. Helen’s
account of both the plight of the condemned and
the rage for the bereaved is as enlightening and
devastating as it ever has been. The event is
free, but seating in the Cindy Pritzker
Auditorium at the Library is first come, first
serve. 385 is maximum capacity. If you would
like more background information on Sr. Helen,
you can go to her website at
www.srhelen.org.
Students
from Old St.
Mary’s
school and
our
Religious Education
program will receive the
sacrament of
Communion for the first
time next Sunday, April 26
at 2 PM.
There will be 60 children
who will begin
receiving this
sacrament that reminds us
of what Jesus Christ did for
us in his life, death and
resurrection.
The Sacrament of Holy
Communion is the third of
the Sacraments of
Initiation. It is called a
sacrament of initiation
because, like Baptism and
Confirmation, it brings us
into the fullness of our life
in Christ.
The LiƩle Sisters of
the Poor will be
speaking briefly a er
communion at all of our
Masses this weekend.
The Li le Sisters are a
community devoted to
the care of the elderly
poor. They were
founded in France by St.
Jeanne Jugan in 1839.
Today they operate
nursing homes in many
countries. In Chicago,
they operate St. Mary’s
Home on N. Lakewood
Ave. Their visit with us
is one of a series of
special events we are
having at Old St. Mary’s
in honor of the
members of religious
communi es who live
and/or work near us
during this Year of
Consecrated Life.

YEAR OF SACRAMENTS • ONE WORD AT A TIME
Suffer
The Martyrology is a thick
book that contains entries for
every day of the year. Each
day lists the men and women,
boys and girls across two
thousand years who have
given their lives in witness to
their faith in Jesus Christ. It is
an impressive assembly of
countless witnesses to the faith.
Most probably, we will not be called to shed our
blood in witness to our faith. We will, most
definitely, have to suffer in some way because of
our faith in Jesus Christ. In the Gospels, Jesus
clearly tells his disciples that there is a cost in
following him. Of course, they will be joyful and
full of hope in him, but they will also endure the
difficulties of misunderstanding, contempt,
perhaps even persecution. In short, suffering is an
inevitable part of discipleship. To support us in our
suffering, he gives us his Holy Spirit in the
sacrament of Confirmation.

on the needs of women, young girls and children. We
fund partial scholarships for young women attending
catholic high schools throughout the Chicagoland
area, support the Arts of Living Institute and other
requests of Catholic Charities that help us fulfill our
mission.
