A Note from Fr. Joe…. THE DEDICATION OF THE LATERAN BASILICA

THE DEDICATION OF THE LATERAN BASILICA
NOVEMBER 9, 2014
A Note from Fr. Joe….
This marks the second week in a row that the Sunday in Ordinary Time is superseded by something else –
in this case, the Feast of the Dedication of the Lateran Basilica in Rome. At first glance, this may appear rather
curious. We’re used to remembering persons or celebrating saints, but why honor a building dedicated in Rome
almost 1700 years ago? Why do we even have this feast in the liturgical calendar? Well, as it turns out, though we
probably think of St. Peter’s as the Pope’s main church that title actually goes to St. John Lateran. The Lateran
Basilica is the cathedral church of the Diocese of Rome, where the Pope, as Bishop of Rome, presides. As such,
it’s been called the “mother and head of all churches of Rome and the world.” In other words, the Lateran Basilica is
the cathedral church for the universal church.
Most importantly this feast day reminds us of our unity as Catholic Christians – the unity that we share in
Christ Jesus, whose Body we are as the Church. From that perspective, the feast isn’t so much about a building or
basilica per se; it’s about us. The Lateran Basilica serves as a symbol of the whole Church, built of living stones.
We are the Church; we each are “God’s building,” as St Paul tells us in the Second Reading. “You are the temple of
God…the Spirit of God dwells in you.”
Far surpassing structures made by human hands, we’re God-made, built by God on the one foundation –
Jesus Christ. In speaking at a dedication of a church in his time, St. Augustine declared, “What was done here, as
these walls were rising, is reproduced when we bring together those who believe in Christ…Nevertheless, they do
not constitute a house of the Lord until they are joined together through love!” (Sermon 336, 1) This feast causes
us to reflect then – is Christ truly the foundation of our lives? Are we “joined together through love?” Perhaps we
find it hard to believe that we’re more magnificent than the Lateran Basilica – or better still that our neighbor is.
Yet, again, St. Paul is clear – each of us is a sacred place. “For the temple of God, which you are, is holy.”
Jesus is to be found most powerfully not just in the cathedrals we build, but in the Christian lives we lead. What the
Lateran Basilica does through craftsmanship and art, may we do by our words and actions. United with Pope
Francis, let’s remind everyone we meet of God’s presence in our midst.
When it comes to buildings, we’re blessed in our parish with not one, but two beautiful worship spaces –
the Villanova Church and the Rosemont Chapel. In addition, we have other nice facilities, including what has been
known over time as the New School Building, School Building #2, or Kencrest on the Rosemont Chapel property.
While we actively search for a new tenant, we thought it was a good time to give the building a permanent name for
parish purposes. So in this week that we celebrate his birthday, I’m happy to announce that the building will be
called the St. Augustine Annex. It speaks of our Augustinian heritage and St. Thomas of Villanova – along with us –
looking to Augustine as a spiritual father.
Happy Feast Day!

“For we are God’s fellow workers…”
1 Corinthians 3:9
We are called to help God build His kingdom on Earth. We are His
eyes, ears, hands and voice on Earth. By giving of our “first fruits”
of our time, talent and treasure we help fulfill God’s call. Are you
doing all you can to help? Do you spend time in prayer every day?
Do you participate in one of the many parish ministries? Do you
give generously in the offertory collection each week?
Thank you for your generosity for the

A SPECIAL NOTE FROM FR. JOE
PARISH STAFF UPDATE
In the interest of good communication and
collaboration, I wanted to update you on several things
related to our Parish Staff. First, please remember
Charles Edward Gilmore, the father of our Maintenance
Manager Charlie Gilmore, who passed away last
Sunday. We’re keeping Charlie and all his family in our
prayers.
Related to parish maintenance, Pat Morrison,
who assisted Charlie, officially retired as of October 31st.
He was insistent on not wanting any fanfare, but I’d be
remiss if I didn’t publicly say thank you for his 12+ years
of service here at St. Thomas of Villanova. We wish Pat
and his wife Jenny all the best! I’m also happy to
announce that Harry (AJ) Herr will be joining the Staff
this week to assist and back up Charlie on maintenance
matters.
Last, but certainly not least, Greg Stejskal, our
Director of Religious Education (DRE) and Youth
Ministry, informed me last week that he would be taking
a teaching position in the Archdiocese and resigning
from St. Thomas. Though he’s assisting in the
transition, we’ve already taken several steps to include:
working on identifying an Interim Coordinator for the
Religious Education Program; submitting job
announcements & descriptions for a new permanent
DRE and a new part-time Youth Minister (these can be
found on the Archdiocesan and Parish websites;) and
proceeding with hiring someone as a replacement for
Mrs. Helen Savini. This Administrative Assistant will
support both Religious Education and Youth Ministry.
After a meeting with catechists this past Sunday, I can
assure you that we’re all committed to moving forward
and supporting our youth in their faith journey. Once
again, I thank our catechists, who form the core of our
program, and pray for Greg and our parish in this time
of transition.
God Bless!


Our first meeting for this fiscal year was held on Tuesday, October 21, 2014. We met our new members, Don
Spence and Matt Demchyk.

Our first topic of discussion was the rental of the school building previously rented by Kencrest. There are a
few different groups interested but nothing firm at this point. We have signs out advertising the building
availability and marketing efforts continue. We also discussed the naming of the building and have decided
to call the building the St. Augustine Annex.

The building sub-committee met in late September and the chair, Dan Cuff, updated the Council about the
decision to hold off on all Parish capital improvements until a tenant has rented the St. Augustine Annex.
We will only take care of emergency situations, which at this time include repairs to the front sidewalk on
Lancaster Ave. and replacement of piping from a water main leak in the Parish Center.

The first quarter financials were presented and reviewed. The Council agreed that the parish remains
financially sound in maintaining its current operating budget.

Members of the Finance Council signed up to attend monthly Pastoral Council meetings throughout the year.

Fr. Joe explained that the other Councils will continue to move forward with the goals from the In-Depth
Evaluation of Parish Life and each, including Finance, will submit summaries like this to keep parishioners
better informed.

Do we have a diabetic epidemic on our hands?
Edward Gregg, Chief of Epidemiology and Statistics
Branch of the Division of Diabetes Translation at the
Center for Disease Control and Prevention thinks we do.
Of the 29 million adults who have diabetes, most have
type 2, the kind that’s closely tied to obesity (unlike type 1
diabetes, which is an autoimmune disease). Type 2 used
to be called adult-onset diabetes, but now it’s showing up
in teens. The vast majority of people with pre-diabetes
don’t know that they have it.
Two problems usually contribute to the
development of type 2 diabetes. The first is that the body
is resistant to insulin.
Insulin acts like a key that allows sugar to enter
cells, where it can be burned for fuel or stored for later.
But in some people, especially those with an oversized
waist, the key struggles to open the lock.
To compensate for insulin resistance — also
called impaired insulin sensitivity — the beta cells of the
pancreas pump out more and more of the hormone. The
extra insulin can keep a lid on blood sugar for years, but
eventually the beta cells wear out. At some point, the
pancreas cannot make enough insulin to overcome the
resistance. That is when blood sugars surge into the
“diabetic” range.
Secondly, the population has steadily become
more obese for the last few decades thanks in part to
larger portions, sugary beverages and less exercise.
Beta-cell failure occurs more rapidly with age. About 25%
of people age 65 and older have diabetes.
“In many ways the population is getting healthier
over time”, says Gregg. “But diabetes is the exception.”
The good news about diabetes: It’s not inevitable
and up to 90% of type 2 diabetes is preventable by life
style modification.
The Bottom Line……
- The best way to dodge diabetes is lose — not
gain extra pounds
- Do at least 30 minutes of brisk walking or other
aerobic exercise every day. Experts also
recommend strength training sessions two or
three times a week.
- Limit sweets, especially sugar-sweetened drinks.
Even the naturally occurring sugars in 100% fruit
juice may raise your risk.
- Fill up your plate with vegetables and only a quarter
whole grains.
- Eat green leafy vegetables, whole grains, beans
and nuts to get enough magnesium.
- Replace saturated and trans fats with unsaturated
fats to lower the risk of heart disease.
- Get the RDA for Vitamin D (600 IU a day up to age
70 and 800 IU over age 70) from supplements or
foods fortified with Vitamin D.
