Classes are held every other month, so please plan ahead. Call Rectory for information.<br />
Arrangements must be made at the Rectory at least six months in advance. Catholic parties must<br />

The Perpetual Adoration Chapel of Our Lady, Mother of the Eucharist, is available 24 hours a day for private<br />

Devotions in honor of Saint Peregrine, the patron saint of those who suffer with cancer will be held<br />

parishioners would like a visit from a priest or deacon. Catholic chaplains are assigned to area<br />
hospitals to administer the Sacraments. <strong>Visitation</strong> parish priests visit Elmhurst Hospital twice a<br />
week on Tuesdays and Fridays.

PARISH BUSINESS<br />
Dear <strong>Visitation</strong> <strong>Parish</strong>ioners,<br />
“Jesus said to them, ‘The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest<br />
to send out laborers for his harvest.” (Luke 10:2) Just over a month ago these words, proclaimed at a <strong>Sunday</strong><br />
Mass, echoed in our church. Today, the meaning of those words are felt as we bid farewell to Fr. Jan. Fr. Jan, a<br />
priest of the Archdiocese of Chicago, received a letter from the Cardinal calling him back to the Archdiocese.<br />
Sometime ago, I learned that this was a possibility, but it was not until very recently that it became clear he would<br />
not be able to stay at <strong>Visitation</strong>. This leaves us without a second priest to serve our community simply because<br />
there are no priests available to be assigned to <strong>Visitation</strong>. Once Fr. Jan is settled and able to return for a weekend,<br />
we hope to give him a proper farwell reception.<br />
Since we have become a one-priest parish for the foreseeable future, certain changes must be made to our Daily<br />
Mass schedule. I am grateful to Fr. Colman who, since his retirement, has volunteered to celebrate a morning Mass<br />
on Mondays and Wednesdays, and will now volunteer for Tuesdays as well. With his help we will be able to maintain<br />
a morning Mass on Mondays, and keep the two morning Masses on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Our weekday<br />
Mass schedule will be the following:<br />
Monday—8:15 A.M.<br />
Tuesday & Wednesday—6:15 A.M. & 8:15 A.M.<br />
Thursday & Friday—8:15 A.M.<br />
1 st Saturday of the Month—8:15 A.M.<br />
The <strong>Sunday</strong> Mass schedule will remain the same. Fr. Tivy will continue to help us for one Mass every <strong>Sunday</strong><br />
and we will continue to look for a second priest who will be able to assist us in our need. The <strong>Sunday</strong> Schedule is:<br />
Saturday—5:00 P.M.<br />
<strong>Sunday</strong>—7:00 A.M., 8:15 A.M., 10:00 A.M. & 12:00 Noon<br />
Following is the daily Mass schedule at neighboring parishes:<br />
St. Domitilla, Hillside<br />
Monday–Friday—7:00 A.M.<br />
Saturday, 8:30 A.M.<br />
Immaculate Conception, Elmhurst<br />
Monday–Friday—6:15 A.M. & Saturday 8:00 A.M.<br />
Mary Queen of Heaven, Elmhurst<br />
Monday–Friday—8:30 A.M.<br />
Ascension, Oakbrook Terrace<br />
Monday–Friday—8:00 A.M. & 12:00 noon<br />
St. Alexander, Villa Park<br />
Monday–Friday—8:30 A.M.<br />
Thank you for your understanding and please continue to pray for vocations.<br />
In Christ,<br />
Fr. Huggins<br />

The Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary<br />
Thursday, <strong>Aug</strong>ust 15<br />
This Thursday, <strong>Aug</strong>ust 15, is the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into<br />
Heaven, a holy day of obligation. On this day all Catholics are bound to attend Mass.<br />
The Solemnity of the Assumption celebrates the special gift God gave the Virgin Mary of the<br />
glorified body of Resurrection. Basically, the doctrine of the Assumption says that at the end of<br />
Her earthly life, the Blessed Virgin Mary was assumed body and soul into Heaven. This belief<br />
flows from the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception and completes it. Since Mary was immaculately<br />
conceived, that is, conceived in the womb of her mother without the stain of original sin,<br />
she should not have to suffer the ultimate penalty for sin, which is the corruption of the grave. So,<br />
Mary was given the gift of the glorified body of Resurrection, which all of us hope for, because<br />
she was preserved from sin from the moment of her conception. This was so because God had to<br />
prepare a ready and worthy resting place for the Word to be made man. Where Mary has gone,<br />
we hope one day to follow if, like the Blessed Virgin Mary, we remain faithful to all that the Lord<br />
asks of us in this life.<br />
Masses for the Holy Day will be celebrated on Thursday at 6:15 A.M., 8:15 A.M., 12:00 Noon and 7:00 P.M.<br />
SCHOOL<br />
MANNA<br />
<strong>Visitation</strong> Tuition Assistance Program<br />
This past week 30 <strong>Visitation</strong> Grade School and other organization program families purchased $14,224 in gift certificates<br />
through our MANNA program.<br />
The earned tuition credit for the past week was $675. We thank all our participants and remind so many other families, who<br />
do not participate for a variety of reasons, that all families who are members of <strong>Visitation</strong> <strong>Parish</strong> can earn tuition credit for themselves<br />
or another family friend, or to simply help support our school. If you do not need the credit for yourself, there is always<br />
another family in need who would be overwhelmed with your kindness. Everyone should be aware that it does not cost a dime<br />
to participate. As an example of the good you could do, just buy $100 in Jewel, Dominick’s, Caputo’s or Pete’s Fresh Market<br />
($4 is earned), Land’s End/Sears/K–Mart (15% is earned), Fannie May Candy (28% is earned) and Great Clips (19% is earned).<br />
There are over 275 stores and restaurants that support our program. And that’s a lot of choice. Please stop in at one of our<br />
Walk–in Services and see how easy it is to begin.<br />
Now you can visit the school website (www.visitationelmhurst.org) to view or print our most recent updated MANNA Order<br />
Form. For additional information or to place a large order, please call David James at 630-834-0967 before 6:00 P.M. <strong>Sunday</strong><br />

Heaven Awaits You<br />
The Assumption of the Blessed<br />
Virgin Mary into Heaven is <strong>Aug</strong>ust<br />
15. We celebrate this Holy Day of<br />
Obligation by partaking in the Holy<br />
Sacrifice of the Mass. Another way<br />
we can joyfully celebrate this day is<br />
by visiting the Our Lady, Mother of<br />
the Eucharist Perpetual Adoration<br />
Chapel. Let Our Lady bring you closer<br />
to Heaven, to adore Her Son, Jesus<br />
in the Blessed Sacrament. She wants<br />
nothing more than to help nurture<br />
your relationship with Her Beloved Son. Our Blessed<br />
Mother loves each one of us more than we could ever imagine.<br />
She is the ultimate example of a caring and loving<br />
mother to each one of Her children here on Earth. In return,<br />
show your love for your Heavenly Mother by allowing our<br />
Blessed Mother Mary to enter your heart and bring you<br />
closer to Jesus. Spend some time in Heaven yourself and<br />
visit the Adoration Chapel. The feelings of happiness and<br />
peace and the graces you will receive from Our Lord and<br />
Our Lady will be abundant!<br />
