The People of Christ the King in Lombard are a welcoming, vibrant faith community building the kingdom of God through our many ministries. We celebrate our diversity, seeking to realize the gifts of each member of our parish, as we are all joined together under one faith, in a spiritual journey of evangelization, service to others, and a reverence for all life.

Marriage does matter. After all, were all in this together. As members of society, we count on each other every day to keep our commitments. We feel more secure when we can depend on others. Although marriage has changed a great deal (see A Snapshot of Marriage in the U.S.), the benefits of marriage endure. Social science research confirms that marriage is an important social good that brings a wide range of positive outcomes for adults and children alike. Read more about these benefits of marriage: On average, married people are better off financially. Marriage is associated with better health, sex and safety for men and women. Children do better when they live with their own two married parents. For more articles look at www.foryourmarriage.org. This weekend at each Mass we will have a blessing for married couples.

The Alpha Course

What is it? Alpha is a 10 week course that will ignite and inspire conversations about Jesus Christ. It is a practical introduction to the Christian faith. This is a place where guests have an opportunity to explore the meaning of life in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The course will meet for 10 weeks with a one day retreat in the middle. Each session, people enjoy food, laughter and learning about the teachings of Jesus in a fun and friendly environment where no question about Life or God is seen as too simple or too hostile. There is no charge to attend the Alpha Course. Who is Alpha for? Alpha is for anyone. People attend Alpha from all backgrounds, religions and viewpoints. They come to investigate questions about the existence of God, the purpose of Life, what happens after death, the teachings of Jesus and more. Many guests have never been to church; others may have attended Church occasionally but have never really understood the basics of the Christian faith. Everyone is welcome. Where and When will it begin? Christ the King Parish is proud to announce that Alpha will begin on July 27 at 7:00 p.m. in the Parish Life Center. It will run for 10 weeks with a one day retreat. We will have hospitality, conversation, a 45 minute DVD and round table discussions with members from the parish. I have a relationship with Christ and would like to discover more about the Alpha course. Can I come? Sure and bring a friend! This engaging series will refresh and possibly rediscover many biblical facts for every Christian. There will be a planning meeting on Monday, July 11th at 7:00 p.m. in the East Room of the rectory. You can register for the Alpha Course by calling Eileen Maggiore at 630-396-6076. eileen@ctklombard.org

Thinking about Christmas in July (?)

As we sip iced tea in the back yard, watching the fireflies and enjoying the flowers and the warmth of summer, we are wondering perhaps it isn't too early to start thinking about Christmas. And so we are. The ladies of Christ the King CCW are beginning to make plans and preparations for our St. Nicholas Fair on December 3 and 4. The Fair will feature handmade craft and bakery items for sale. We welcome your help! We will be accepting donations of handmade craft and bakery items for the fair and we will also be collecting items for raffle baskets again. It is not too soon to begin making items for the Craft Table. If you have a special talent, please feel free to make an item or two or three to donate to the table. Watch the bulletin for information about upcoming workshops where we will get together to make some craft items such as Christmas decorations. If you have any questions or would like to lead us in making a project, please call Anna Weselak, 630-620-7797. Anna Weselak, St. Nicholas Fair Project Chair Council of Catholic Women

Year of the Eucharist 2010-2011 Early Learning Academy Update

Page 7

Our staff would like to take a moment to thank Fr. Peter, the parishioners, families of the Academy, volunteers, and friends for a wonderful year! Summer is here and we are busy getting ready for next year! We are wrapping up cleaning and maintenance on the building, planning professional development for our teachers, setting long term and short term goals for the curriculum, maintaining the website, marketing our registration, planning to host an early education seminar for the Diocese of Joliet preschool teachers and directors in August, planning service projects, etc. Hopefully the month of July will be a time of rest and relaxation to gear up for August and our new year ahead. Fr. Peter has spent a lot of time being our shepherd at the Academy. The students look forward to his visits with great enthusiasm! He usually brings the children treats, like lollipops, cookies, cupcakes, pizza, and juice boxes! He brings the staff step stools for the sink, lunch, and religious items for our chapel or classrooms. He is one of the few priests I have ever seen actually sit with the children on the floor to play with the trains! He also loves to read to the students, tells them bible stories, teaches them the sign of the cross, prays with them, and encourages them to sing with all their heart! He also includes the kindergarten students in the masses that we attendgiving homilies that incorporate their participation and makes them feel special! He noticed our flag was in a state of disrepair and got a donation from a gentleman for a new, beautiful flag! He has tolerated our messes in art and projects knowing that there is a lot of learning going on at our Academy! We hope he gets a little break this summer and will pray for him! I would like to thank all those who collect and bring in Campbell Soup labelswe were able to use points to have a three hoop apparatus that slips over a regular basketball hoop in our gym, so that the children can practice easier shooting hoops! Its awesome! Box Tops have really come in handy, so please continue to send those in as well. The Box Tops pay for our CPR certification of our teachers, Catholic Schools Week, etc. Small containers are in the narthex of the church for the collection of these items, so please dont forget to bring them in over the summer! May God bless you and keep you safe during the summer. Mrs. Placey

Year of the Eucharist 2010-2011

July 10, 2011

As I reflect on this year's Youth Leadership Conference, one very important takeaway message continues to echo in my mind, and is a message that I wish to share with our parishioners at Christ the King. What I have learned is that for Parish Ministry to be effective, three things have to happen. 1) First, SHOW UP: While it seems like something so simple, you need to come to church in order to be effective in your ministry. Church provides not only the scriptural message and proclamation of the Gospel, which gives us direction, it also provides the community for us to join forces with others who share in our faith and in our mission. 2) Second, STEP UP: And this is meant to be literal in stepping up to the table to receive the Body of Christ to become the Body of Christ to others. Stepping up in a figurative sense also means coming forward with a commitment to serve our church and our community to share our time, talent, treasures, and prayers. 3) Third, STEP OUT: As you have told us countless times, the doors of the church are service doors, not merely exit doors. There lies the opportunities to respond to God's calling, to match our gifts with the needs of others and to be the answer to the prayers of others. So simple, yet so memorable. SHOW UP, STEP UP, STEP OUT. The youths of our parish who represented us as leaders at this diocesan event are true disciples of Christ. They are the visible young servants who have shown up, stepped up, and stepped out. They are now commissioned to work to sustain and grow this ministry. With the continued prayers and support, under the leadership of Sherry Rochford and volunteer Youth Ministers, this inspired team understands that it is not the number of followers that provides a true measure of success, but the ability to continuously respond to God's calling and to the needs of His people. Even Jesus in all of His infinite power, started with a mere Twelve, who were not natural-born leaders, and turned those men into His Disciples in forming the Church. We must therefore focus NOT on who is absent, but recognize those who are PRESENT and are responding to the call. Thanks to you and our parishioners for the support that makes this event possible for us to attend. My time at this conference is always fulfilling and serves to provide the spiritual energy that is needed to minister to the Confirmands, teens, and young adults of Christ the King Parish. In the Love of Christ, Dr. Jack A. Maggiore

Prayer for our new Ordinary: Bishop Daniel Conlon

All praise and glory are Yours, Lord Jesus: You have made us Your body, Your Church, and help us to bear fruit for our heavenly Father. You chose St. Peter as the rock, and sent him to feed Your flock and to strengthen his brothers and sisters. Continue to help Your Church Through the guidance of our Pope, Bishops, and Priests; and keep us faithful in Your service, at Christ the King Parish Grant our new Bishop Daniel Conlon, holiness of life and wisdom to direct and guide our diocesan family so that we may grow in your love. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, the High Priest. Amen.
