Liturgical Ministry
Growing into a Fuller Participation in the Life of the Church

Mother Church earnestly desires that all the faithful should be led to that fully conscious, and active participation in litur-
gical celebrations which is demanded by the very nature of the Liturgy. Such participation by the Christian people as "a
chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a redeemed people (I Pet 2:9; cf. 2:4-5), is their right and duty by reason
of their baptism. (Article 14 of the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy - Second Vatican Council)

Altar Server: Each Mass has a certain amount of actions or tasks that are aided by an Altar Server. This ministry re-
quires someone with knowledge of the progression of the Mass and an ability to "think on your feet." This person carries
the cross in the entrance procession, holds the Sacramentary for the presider, and helps with the sacred vessels used
at Mass. The ministry needs someone who is comfortable in front of group, who can take direction, and who can move
gracefully and reverently as a situation of public prayer would require. This ministry is open to all parishioners in 4th
grade and older.

Do you feel that God has blessed you with the talents needed for this ministry? Contact our Director of Music and Lit-
urgy, Bill Runge, at 630-396-6075. You can also email him at bill@ctklombard.org.

END OF LIFE ISSUES

“I [Jesus] came so that they might have life and have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10)

ETHICAL AND RELIGIOUS DIRECTIVES FOR CATHOLIC HEALTH CARE SERVICES

United States Council of Catholic Bishops (USCCB)

• To see Christian love as the animating principal of health care

• To see healing and compassion as a continuation of Christ’s mission
• To see suffering as a participation in the redemptive power of Christ’s passion, death, and resurrection
• To see death, transformed by the resurrection, as an opportunity for a final act of communion with Christ

Created in God’s image and likeness, the human family shares in the dominion that Christ manifested in His healing min-
istry.
• Through science the human race comes to understand God’s wonderful work
• Through technology it must conserve, protect, and perfect nature in harmony with God’ purposes
• Health care professionals pursue a special vocation to share in carrying forth God’s life-giving and healing
work
DECLARATION ON EUTHANASIA (USCCB)
“Most people regard life as something sacred and hold that no one may dispose of it at will, but believers see in life
something greater, namely a gift of God’s love, which they are called upon to preserve and make fruitful.”

• No one can make an attempt on the life of an innocent person without opposing God’s love for that person, with out
violating a fundamental right and therefore without committing a crime of the utmost gravity.
• Everyone has the duty to lead his or her life in accordance with God’s plan. That life is entrusted to the individual as
a good that must bear fruit here on earth, but that finds its full perfection only in eternal life.
• Intentionally causing one's own death, or suicide, is therefore equally as wrong as murder ... at times there are psy-
chological factors present that can diminish responsibility or even completely remove it.

EUTHANASIA: An action or omission which of itself or by intention causes death, in order that all suffering may in this
way be eliminated.

• Terms of reference: the intention of the will and in the methods used. It is necessary to state firmly once more that
nothing and no one in any way permit the killing of an innocent human being, whether a fetus or an embryo, and in-
fant or adult, an old person, or one suffering from an incurable disease, or a person who is dying. Furthermore, no
one is permitted to ask for this act of killing, either for himself or herself or for another person entrusted to his or her
care, nor can he or she consent to it, either explicitly or implicitly. Nor can any authority legitimately recommend or
permit such an action. “This does not mean that all possible remedies must be used in all circumstances. One is not
obliged to use either ‘extraordinary’ means or ‘disproportionate’ means of preserving life.”

ADVANCE DIRECTIVES: it is helpful to prayerfully ponder dying and death in the context of trust in our faithful and lov-
ing God. The trust is important as we discuss our feelings and desires with our families and physicians. We are con-
cerned with situations in which we no longer are able to make our own decisions about health care. To follow up your
prayer and discussion with a written document. There are two different kinds:

• LIVING WILL: A statement prepared in advance so that people, while competent, can direct their families and physi-
cians concerning the type of treatment they want or don’t want if they become terminally ill and incompetent; a legal
document in the state of Ohio.
• DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR HEALTH CARE: In this document an individual gives another person the
legal authority to make health care decisions when he/she is no longer able to do so. The decisions are made by the
appointed person … are based on the current medical condition of the patient and on the patient’s previously ex-
pressed desires concerning treatment ... this form of dealing with dying and death situations seems to be preferable.
It provides both for the respecting the individual’s desire concerning treatment and for current informed consent
made by the individual appointed by the patient after careful consideration with doctors, nurses and chaplains.

Year of the Eucharist + Diocese of Joliet

Guidelines for the Reception of Communion

On November 14, 1996, the National Conference of Catholic Bishops approved the fol-
lowing guidelines on the reception of communion. These guidelines replace the guide-
lines approved by the Administrative Committee of the NCCB in November 1986. The
guidelines, which are to be included in missalettes and other participation aids pub-
lished in the United States, seek to remind all those who may attend Catholic liturgies of
the present discipline of the Church with regard to the sharing of Eucharistic commun-
ion.

For Catholics
As Catholics, we fully participate in the celebration
of the Eucharist when we receive Holy Commun-
ion. We are encouraged to receive Communion
devoutly and frequently. In order to be properly
disposed to receive Communion, participants
should not be conscious of grave sin and normally
should have fasted for one hour. A person who is
conscious of grave sin is not to receive the Body
and Blood of the Lord without prior sacramental
confession except for a grave reason where there
is no opportunity for confession. In this case, the person is to be mindful of the obli-
gation to make an act of perfect contrition, including the intention of confessing as
soon as possible (canon 916). A frequent reception of the Sacrament of Penance is
encouraged for all.

For our fellow Christians

We welcome our fellow Christians to this celebration of the Eucharist as our brothers and sisters. We pray that our com-
mon baptism and the action of the Holy Spirit in this Eucharist will draw us closer to one another and begin to dispel the
sad divisions which separate us. We pray that these will lessen and finally disappear, in keeping with Christ’s prayer for
us “that they may all be one” (Jn 17:21).

Because Catholics believe that the celebration of the

Eucharist is a sign of the reality of the oneness of faith,
life, and worship, members of those churches with
whom we are not yet fully united are ordinarily not ad-
mitted to Holy Communion. Eucharistic sharing in ex-
ceptional circumstances by other Christians requires
permission according to the directives of the diocesan
bishop and the provisions of canon law (canon 844 §
4). Members of the Orthodox Churches, the Assyrian
Church of the East, and the Polish National Catholic
Church are urged to respect the discipline of their own
Churches. According to Roman Catholic discipline, the
Code of Canon Law does not object to the reception of
communion by Christians of these Churches (canon
844 § 3).

For those not receiving Holy Communion

All who are not receiving Holy Communion are encouraged to express in their hearts a prayerful desire for unity with the
Lord Jesus and with one another.

For non-Christians
We also welcome to this celebration those who do not share our faith in Jesus Christ. While we cannot admit them to
Holy Communion, we ask them to offer their prayers for the peace and the unity of the human family.

Registering Voters is Easy!
October 5 is the last day to register to vote in the upcoming
November 2 General Election. It is not too early to start
planning one or more voter registration drives at your par-
ish. Please receive permission from your pastor and then
follow these two simple steps for using the "mail in" registra-
tion option for registering voters. There is no need to have
volunteers become a Deputy Voter Registrar for this option.
1) Provide copies of the Illinois Voter Registration Applica-
tion on the day you choose to hold your registration
drive. These are available at http://www.elections.il.gov/
Downloads/VotingInformation/PDF/R-19.pdf ONLY PAGE 1
IS REQUIRED. Make as many copies as you need. Volun-
teers should be aware of the eligibility rules and other impor-
tant information explained on this form. Be sure the appli-
cation is filled out completely or it will be sent back. (With
permission, you could also stuff these into the bulletin with
an accompanying bulletin article and pulpit announcement).
2) Parishioners may either take the form with them and mail
them from home or stay and complete one after Mass
and you can mail them. Encourage people to leave their
forms with you because they may forget to send them in
otherwise. Completed applications should be mailed to the
correct local election authority. A list of the election boards
for the Diocese of Joliet is attached or for a complete Illinois
listing of election boards go to http://www.illinoisfamily.org/
content/img/f33934/IFI_jurisdictionsList.pdf. This would be
helpful information to have available at the table on the day
of your drive.

ple bulletin and pulpit announcements and other helpful tips
for conducting a voter registration drive.

Joyful Again!
For Those Who Have Suffered a Loss
Have you lost a spouse recently and are grieving for
him/her? Do you hold the tears and let them fall when
you are alone to avoid having your family worry about
you? Do you want to lock your doors and hide from the
world because the pain of losing someone you loved so
much is so intense? Joyful Again is having a retreat at
Mary Queen of Heaven Parish in Elmhurst August 7-8.
The tears can be dried, the pain relaxed. The healing
begins the moment you pick up the phone – Joyful
Again!
The above was written by a parishioner who lost his
wife a few months ago. He recently experienced a Joy-
ful Again! Weekend and highly recommends it. Week-
ends are offered frequently throughout the local area,
call soon. Call Charlotte 708. 354.7211, Fr. Peter

What does it mean to be a Roman Catholic?

While different people may offer varied answers, there are three truths that are at the heart of every Catholic - a belief in
God, our Father, Jesus Christ, His Son and the Holy Spirit. This undeniable truth and belief in The Trinity is one of the

Ten Foundational Beliefs of Catholicism

1. Catholics believe in a God of grace, meaning that we believe God is always with us, even within us, throughout our
lives.
2. Catholics believe in a God who exists in three divine persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, the Trinity.
3. Catholics see the seven sacraments as special gifts from God, sources of grace.
4. Catholics believe that Scripture (the Holy Bible) is the inspired word of God.
5. Catholics believe in the long and rich tradition of the Catholic Church led by the Pope who is seen as the successor
to the apostle Peter.
6. Catholics believe in Saints, people who serve as a model of faith for us to follow.
7. One of the primary ways Catholics practice their belief is through public and private prayer, including the Mass, sac-
raments, Eucharistic adoration, and more.
8. Catholics are guided by moral truths taken from Scripture and tradition, namely the Ten Commandments and the
Beatitudes.
9. Catholics actively follow Christ’s teaching by acting on the Catholic Social Teaching which encourages us to ensure
the basic rights and dignity of all people in our world.
10. Catholics believe together we form a Community of Believers, the Body of Christ, and bring our faith to life by the
way we act, pray and worship.

To all those who love to sing

First of all, I wish to thank you for your participation in our liturgy through your sung prayer. The Second Vatican Council
has called each of us to a fuller participation in the Liturgy. One way we can live the liturgy more fully is through our vocal
prayer – spoken and sung.

As you know, Christ the King has been without a year-round (except summer) choir for several years. This past year
gave great insight to what the musicians at Christ the King, you and I, can do with regular rehearsals. So, as I enter my
14th year as director of music ministries, I am happy to announce the launch of “The King’s Choir”. The King’s Choir is a
40-week choral program that begins this fall. The goal of this choral program is for us to become a choral instrument that
enriches the Holy Mass through its support of the congregation’s vocal and contemplative prayer, as well as offering you
an opportunity to enjoy artistic achievement, social involvement, and a sense of contribution to the parish community.

The King’s Choir will sing both traditional and contemporary repertoire at the 10:00am Mass on the first and third Sun-
days of the month, beginning Sunday, September 19, 2010. Rehearsals will continue to be on Wednesday evenings,
from 7:00pm until 9:00pm in the church. Our first rehearsal is scheduled for Wednesday, August 25, 2010.

The King’s Choir will also sing for our Christmas and Holy Week masses as our Adult Choir has done for many years.
Those who are unable to commit to the King’s Choir can still join in at Christmas and Easter; however, they would not be
able to sing everything in our repertoire. Certain works would be sung by the King’s Choir alone.

I understand that being part of this choir is a commitment. I hope that you prayerfully consider joining us this fall. I ask
that you please RSVP your intent to join the King’s Choir by August 1, as I will be using the latter part of summer to plan
out our entire year’s repertoire. Have a wonderful summer, and I look forward to seeing you this fall!

Sincerely in Christ,

Bill Runge

Food For the Poor: Who We Are
Food For The Poor is the largest international relief or-
ganization in the United States, according to the Chroni-
cle of Philanthropy; the organization serves the poorest of
the poor in 17 countries throughout the Caribbean and
Latin America. Founded in 1982, Food For The Poor is an
interdenominational ministry that not only provides food
for the starving, but also builds small houses for the desti-
tute, digs water wells for parched villagers, provides medi-
cine and medical equipment for the sick and elderly, sup-
ports orphanages and education for children, and much
more.
Since 1982, Food For The Poor has distributed more than
52,000 tractor-trailer loads of aid to the poor, and built
more than 61,000 housing units for families in desperate
need of shelter. Total support received in 2009 was more
than $1.1 billion, with fundraising and administrative costs
comprising only 3.1% of expenses. More than 96% of all
donations received went directly to programs that benefit
the poor.
In 2007, Forbes magazine rated Food For The Poor as
having an efficiency level of 97% in charitable commit-
ment and 98% in fundraising efficiency. In addition, Food
For The Poor received the highest possible ratings from
industry observers: four stars from Charity Navigator and
five stars from Ministry Watch. Food For The Poor is also
proud to meet the extensive standards of America’s most
experienced charity evaluator, the Better Business Bu-
reau.
Food for the Poor will speak at the masses next
weekend. Thank you for your generosity.

Stewardship
"How shall I make a return to the Lord for all the good
God has done for me?"- Psalm 16:12
Stewardship of treasure begins not because God has
need of our gifts but because each one of us has a need
to return to God a truly grateful portion of our time, talent
and treasure in thanksgiving for all the blessing that He
has given us. The highest purpose for giving is our grati-
tude to God for His many blessings.
How can I be a good steward of my treasure? Acknowl-
edge that all of material possessions are gifts from God.
Understand that my offering is my "thank you" to such a
generous God. Give in proportion to the gifts I have re-
ceived.
Over 77 million kids are now online. The subject of internet
“blogs” has received increasing attention in the press, here
at the Archdiocese and at schools throughout the country.
“Blog” is short for web log. It is an on-line journal or diary.
Teenagers can create blogs for free on such sites as
MySpace.com, Xanga.com, LiveJournal.com and Face-
Book.com. Blogs usually include profiles, pictures and per-
sonal entries of the person keeping the blog.
What seems quite benign at first glance can become a
problem when a teenager:
• Gives out personal information and/or pictures;
• Makes inappropriate comments;
• Falsely attributes words or pictures to another person;
• Posts inappropriate material;
• Describes in words or pictures behavior which is illegal
such as underage drinking.

Strive to follow the Biblical tithe of 10 percent.
• 5 percent to the weekly Sunday parish offertory,
white, green and gold envelopes
• 1 percent to the annual Diocese of Joliet Catholic Ap-
peal
• 4 percent to other charities of your choice (including
second collections, offerings for the poor, etc.)
Your commitment and generosity to our parish
is helping us work towards our mission.
Thank you for your generosity to Christ the King, Diocese
of Joliet and your personal charities.

The dangers include how this information can easily be
obtained by strangers and used for unintended purposes,
even to make contact with children. There is clearly a
safety issue here. We are concerned for our students’
safety and well-being. We suggest that you check these
websites for information that may be written by or about
your child. Two very helpful websites with additional infor-
mation about blogging and internet safety are
www.blogsafety.com and www.isafe.org.
Thank you for allowing us to be your partners in the forma-
tion of our children and students. Together we will help
them be more aware of the benefits and dangers of the
internet and blogging.
