3 Page Three The faith community of St. Leonard Parish has stepped up to the task and has done it again! The Armed Forces Day weekend was a total success!!! My partners Tom Ward, Bob Huber, Ken Geiger and I were totally impressed by your comfort item donations. Your generosity shows the affection that you have for the Service men and women of our country. Your donations will be sorted and put into bags then personally delivered to the Veterans at Cooke s Manor Rehab facility by our volunteers. We would like to thank Father Roger for his assistance and help in allowing our volunteers to continue this wonderful ministry each year. We would also like to thank the Cub Scout Master of Pack #32, Mr. John Lucas, his staff, the Cub Scouts and their parents for assisting us at all the weekend Masses. Your help is always appreciated. Ever since World War II, our Service men and women have been involved in one war or another trying to help keep this world a safe place to live. As these Service men and women come home it is sometimes necessary to seek medical help at a place such as the Edward Hines Veterans Hospital and it s rehab facilities of which Cooke s Manor is one of them. We are proud of the Service men and women that have given their all to protect this wonderful country and it s people each and every day of the year. God bless them one and all. Fred Wilcox, Tom Ward, Bob Huber and Ken Geiger Family Faith Formation If you are interested in joining the Family Faith Formation Program, please fill out a registration form which can be found at the back of church. Registration forms are due to the rectory by Sunday, June 16 th. As a reminder: sacramental preparation for First Communion and Confirmation is completed over two years. Therefore, we do not accept new students into the second grade and eighth grade classes. If you have a second grader or eighth grader who has not participated in the program, they will be placed in first grade and seventh grade respectively.

4 Page Four Thanks so much! Our wonderfully generous and talented Project Linus Blanketeers responded with a total of 37 blankets during our recent collection. The blankets have been delivered to the Oak Park Women s Exchange, where they will be labeled and sent to the various hospitals and shelters served in our area. You are truly a blessing to each of the children and teenagers who will be receiving a warm hug in the form of a beautiful homemade blanket from Project Linus. Since 1998, Project Linus has distributed over 4 million blankets around the country.and our St. Leonard Blanketeers have contributed significantly to the effort over the past several years. May God bless you for your generosity! The next meeting of the Christian Women's Book Club Will be on May 29, at 7:00pm at Nancy Morrissey's house. We will be reading the book No Turning Back: Witness to Mercy by Donald H. Calloway. This is a remarkable story about a young man's journey from delinquency to an adult faith and eventually to ordination as a Catholic priest. It shows God's grace at work in turning around a life headed for prison or an early death to serve God's people as an example of the power of merciful love. It is available at any book seller or on-line or from the MLS system of your local library. All are invited to participate. For further questions, call Nancy at Grupo de Oración El Grupo de Oración de San Leonardo le invita a que participe todos los Miércoles de 7 a 9pm. Acompáñenos en la Iglesia para un tiempo especial de oración, alabanza y crecimiento spiritual. Le esperamos.
