Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time                                       June 27, 2021

Dear St. Raphael Parishioners,

                        Sunday Mass a endance has gradually been increasing as the Covid
                     restric ons are li ed. Sunday Mass at 11:00 returned this past weekend and
                     will remain on the schedule as long as we stay free from the restric ons.
                     There may s ll be parishioners who don’t know the mask requirements have
                     been relaxed, so please help spread the word to neighbors or fellow
                     parishioners. In other parish updates, we are looking forward to the return
                     of our Parish Picnic and rummage sale this summer. The picnic is scheduled
for Sunday, July 25, and the Rummage sale during the first week of August. We will need plenty
of volunteers for both events! Details on how to sign up will be in the bulle n for a few weeks.

          Masks are s ll recommended in church if you have not been vaccinated. Check with your
doctor if you have par cular concerns, and do what you think best for your own medical needs.
It is s ll common to see some people in public wearing masks, and we are not keeping any
records of who is vaccinated. Priests have the op on to wear a face shield while distribu ng Holy
Communion, and I have been wearing one the last few Sundays. I’m doing this as a precau on, as
long as some of the congrega on chooses to wear masks. I can’t possibly know everyone’s
medical situa on, so I’m staying cau ous for a few more weeks.

        There was a na onal news report last week of great importance to the Catholic Church.
The US Supreme Court ruled that a Catholic adop on agency in Philadelphia was within their
rights to only allow adop on by couples consis ng of a duly married husband and wife. Catholic
teaching on the family assumes that children have a right to both a mother and a father. To
inten onally deprive a child of this fundamental right would be a serious sin.

         A court verdict like this would have been considered obvious and automa c only a decade
ago, so it is a sign of how confused the status of legal (state-recognized) marriage has become
today. Some analysis of the decision suggests it may be narrow in what situa ons it covers. But
the decision was reached unanimously by all nine jus ces, so it sends some kind of message
about religious freedom to the city of Philadelphia, which the court ruled against. I make note of
this because my understanding is the State of Illinois has the same legal posi on that the Court
overruled. I hope that the legal precedent of this ruling will eventually make a difference here in
Illinois. Our basic right to religious freedom should never be taken for granted.

       God bless you all,
       Fr. Ma hew Kowalski
