Pastor’s Perspective/ Perspectiva del Párroco
We give thanks to God always for all of you,
remembering you in our prayers,
calling to mind your works of faith,
your labor of love,
and endurance in hope of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1Thessalonians 1:2-3
T
his Saturday evening we pray with our sisters and
brothers who seek the Lord’s healing through the
Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick. We give
thanks for their witness of faith that God is with them
in their struggle with illness. We offer them our
prayers and our support and commit ourselves to be a
healing community to all in physical, emotional, or
spiritual pain who come to our doors or whom we
meet on the way.
This Sunday we pray with our young men and
women preparing to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation from Bishop Rojas on February 7. We give
thanks for the vitality and challenges they bring to us
as we all seek to put our faith into action in the places
and encounters of our daily lives. We offer them our
prayers and support and commit ourselves to be a
community of living faith that extends a hand to the
outcast, the immigrant, the voiceless, and the one with
limited resources.
This weekend I also announce that our Business
Manager of the past seven years, Suzanne Lefevre, has
accepted a vice president position in the business office of Regina Dominican High School and will be
leaving our staff at the end of November. All who
have worked with Suzanne on the Finance Council,
Building Committee, parish fundraisers, and a variety
of parish and personal financial matters know what a
treasure Suzanne has been for St. Nicholas Parish.
In a position with many demands and limited time and
resources, Suzanne has been a calm, steady, and wise
presence that has helped to guide this parish to a place
of financial stability and ongoing maintenance and improvements to our campus. Regina Dominican is very
blessed to be getting someone of such quality!
A Search Committee has been formed and has already received several resumes. You can find a position
description and more information on the parish website www.nickchurch.org.
Peace, Fr. Bill
En todo momento damos gracias a Dios por ustedes
y los tenemos presentes en nuestras oraciones.
Recordamos las obras que manifiestan la fe de ustedes,
los trabajos fatigosos que han emprendido el amor
y la perseverancia que les da su esperanza en Jesucristo.
1 Tesalonicenses 1:2-3
E
l sábado por la tarde rezamos con nuestros
hermanas y hermanos que buscan la sanación del
Señor por el Sacramento de Unción de los
Enfermos. Damos gracias por su fe que Dios los
acompaña en su enfermedad. Les ofrecemos nuestras
oraciones y apoyo y nos comprometimos ser una
comunidad de sanación a todos que llegan a la puerta o
que encontramos en el camino con cualquier
enfermedad física, emocional, o espiritual.
El domingo rezamos con nuestros jóvenes que se
están preparando para recibir el Sacramento de
Confirmación del Obispo Rojas el 7 de febrero.
Damos gracias por su energía y preguntas que nos
hacen conscientes del compromiso de aplicar la fe a las
circunstancias y relaciones de la vida diaria. Les
ofrecemos nuestras oraciones y nuestro compromiso
de ser una comunidad de una fe viva que extiende la
mano al oprimido, el inmigrante, el que no tiene una
voz, y los con recursos limitados.
También les quiero informar que nuestra Business
Manager, Suzanne Lefevre, ha aceptado un puesto en
la oficina de finanzas del secundario Regina Dominican
y saldrá del equipo pastoral al fin de noviembre.
Todos que han colaborado con Suzanne en el Concilio
de Finanzas, el Comité de Edificios, eventos
parroquiales, y una variedad de asuntos financieros
personales o parroquiales conocen bien el tesoro que
Suzanne ha sido para San Nicolás. En un puesto
con muchas demandas y con tiempo y recursos
limitados, Suzanne ha sido una presencia tranquila,
dedicada, y sabia. Ella ha guiado la parroquia a un
puesto de estabilidad financiera con el continuo
mantenimiento y aumentación del campo. Regina
Dominican está bendecida recibir una persona de
tantas habilidades.
Un comité ha sido formado para revisar los
candidatos y ya ha recibido unos resúmenes.
Encontrará una descripción del puesto y mas
información en el sitio Web www.nickchurch.org.

“Tying Up Loose Ends”
Sunday, November 9 at 3:00 pm in Oldershaw Hall
St. Nicholas parishioners have a
rare opportunity to see Catherine
and Ann Gallogly perform “Tying
Up Loose Ends” at St. Nicholas at
3:00 pm on Sunday, November 9.
The production combines stories
and meditative music in a powerful,
uplifting, and downright funny journey into what occurs at the human
level at the end of our lives. Catherine wrote it based on thirty years of working as a
nurse in hospice and palliative care. She brought us a
shorter version two years ago as part of a Sunday
morning Adult Faith Enrichment session. It was so
well received that we’ve invited her to perform the
longer version in the church. Tickets for “Tying Up
Loose Ends” will be $15 at the door, but only $10 in
advance. You may purchase online beginning now. For
many more details about the production and a link to
make ticket purchases, see www.nickchurch.org/tule.

End of Growing Season 2014
It has been a wonderful growing season but
winter is closing in fast.
The perennials and grass
will continue to form
roots until the ground
freezes hard but the anSt. Nick’s Courtyard
nuals have done their
work for the year. It's time to put our garden to bed
for the winter. Please join us on Saturday, November 1 between 9:00 am and 11:30 am to help tidy up
the gardens until Spring.
Sincere thanks to our hard working gardening volunteers, especially Tip Molitor who has invigorated
the garden with glowing annuals for many years. We
would not have such beautiful beds without the continuing care and devotion of Ray Bayless, Colleen
Powell, Sara Fieberg and Mary Dougherty.
Thanks to also to Margaret Mantle, Kitty Okano,
and Katrina Swanson for donations to our plantings.

United Power Rally
Sunday, October 26, 3:00 - 4:15 pm
with Governor Quinn at St. Rita's Church on
Chicago's southwest side
To celebrate progress with ending gun violence!
United Power's gun violence effort is now nationwide:
Evanston's mayor has signed on with over 50 other
USA mayors who will use their gun-buying power to
get gun manufacturers to adopt safe practices.
A caravan of our cars will take riders from the Parish. We will meet at Oakton Elementary School, Ridge
and Oakton Sts., just south of our Church. The parking lot is on Austin, 1 block south of Oakton. You
may leave your car and ride in another car.
United Power -- a civic organization of Synagogues.
Mosques and Churches including St. Nicholas Parish -also celebrates progress with the construction of affordable housing in the Englewood area. The minimum wage issue is on the agenda as well.
Give Governor Quinn the message that we are
committed to ending gun violence with his support
and that his 4 million dollars pledged for affordable
housing needs to increase. (United Power was able to
match his 4 million.)
For more information contact [email protected] or
call 773.469.4256 and sign on to drive or ride.
St. Nicholas Parish Welcomes New Members
We welcome all newcomers to the neighborhood as well
as those who have been attending our liturgical celebrations.
We encourage you to stop by the Parish Office during office
hours and register as a member of the parish.

Second Collection October 26
United Power for Action and Justice
Next week’s second collection will support United
Power for Action and Justice, a non-partisan, interfaith
community organization that St. Nicholas parish helped
found in 1997.
Because of United Power’s work over one million poor
and working Illinoisans have access to health care and
Illinois allocated $135 million for affordable housing. You
can support this work in two ways.
First, get involved. United Power is working on campaigns to reduce gun violence, create more affordable,
accessible housing, and re-claim foreclosed homes on
southwest side of Chicago. The upcoming action on October 26th will follow-up on Governor Quinn’s commitments to work with us on each of these areas.
Questions? Contact Mary Jo Huck, 773.469.4256.
Second, make a contribution to support United Power
on October 25/26. Dues are United Power’s main funding source and ensures the organization’s work reflects
the values and interests of its members. Thank you in advance for your generosity.

United Power de Acción y Justicia
La segunda colecta de la próxima semana apoyará
United Power de Acción y Justicia, una organización no
partidista, comunidad interreligiosa que la Parroquia de
San Nicolás ayudó a fundar en 1997.
Gracias al trabajo de United Power un millón de
pobres y trabajadores residentes de Illinois tienen acceso a
servicios de salud e Illinois ha asignado $135 millones
para viviendas asequibles. Usted puede apoyar esta obra
de dos maneras.
En primer lugar, involúcrense. United Power está
trabajando en campañas para reducir la violencia armada,
crear más viviendas asequibles y accesibles y la
reivindicación de viviendas embargadas en el lado
suroeste de Chicago. La próxima acción el 26 de octubre
será el seguimiento de los compromisos del Gobernador
Quinn a trabajar con nosotros en cada una de estas áreas.
¿Preguntas? Póngase en contacto con Mary Jo Huck,
773.469.4256.

United Power el 25/26 de Octubre. Cuotas son la fuente

STEP UP to Support St. Nick’s
“Honor the Lord with your substance and with the first
fruits of your produce.” --Proverbs 3:9
“Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.”
—Matthew 6:21
____________________________
During this stewardship month you have been asked
to reflect on your financial commitment to the parish
and to respond out of a spirit of generosity and gratitude
for the place St. Nicholas holds in your heart. In the annual report, you read about the importance of weekly
offertory collections and the words of parishioners who
described why they support St. Nick’s.
As you consider the amount of your own offertory
gift, imagine a St. Nicholas…
• With fundraisers that generate money for parish and community ministries rather than for operating expenses
• With funds for exciting new mission and outreach efforts
• With no year-end appeals to make up budget deficits
• With financial reserves that provide peace of mind
and funds for emergencies
• With enough money for maintenance projects,
without having to wait for capital campaigns
All this can happen and more, but only with your
help. During the next few weeks, think about what
you receive from St. Nick’s and about what the parish
could accomplish with greater financial resources. If
you haven’t been giving regularly, consider enrolling
in GiveCentral or requesting and using envelopes. If
you’ve been giving the same amount for a while,
consider increasing your weekly/monthly donation.
Even a small increase can make a big difference if
many parishioners take this step.
The St. Nicholas Transformation Finance
Team thanks you in advance for your prayerful reflection and generosity.
Coffee Cake Sunday
Coffee Cake Sunday on October 26 needs you:

Love Shouldn’t Hurt
Domestic Violence describes a pattern of behaviors
to control through fear & force that occurs between
two people living in a close relationship. Violence between those two people impacts other members of the
family, household and the community. No one should
be frightened or scared by someone in their family.
Silence perpetuates an environment of fear, frustration, anger, cruelty and continued violence. Break the
silence by speaking out against all forms of violence.
