Catholic Appeal
“Come, Follow Me…and share the Word”
The 2019 Annual Catholic Appeal
Why should I contribute?
The Annual Catholic Appeal is an opportunity to share our financial gifts in order to help provide education, ministry and services throughout our community and the world. Since we are not a congregational church, all parishioners are asked to support the central structure of our local Church. Every time that we say the Creed we reaffirm that we are members of the “one, holy, catholic and apostolic church.” We are saying that every parishioner is a part not only of his or her parish, but also of the Universal Church. Each of us is responsible for the well-being of the Church in our parish, throughout the Archdiocese and the world.
Many families in our parish will be receiving the Annual Catholic Appeal request mailing from Cardinal Cupich. On behalf of those served by the ministries, parishes, and schools who receive funding from the Appeal, we thank you for your gifts. Please return your response as soon as possible.

Offertory Envelopes
St. Lambert Offertory Envelopes are available for pick up in the vestibule of the Church. Please be sure to get your set on the way out.
Why Offertory Envelopes are Important?Placing of envelopes in the collection basket teaches our children the importance of supporting the Church. We encourage you to continue giving envelopes during offertory even if you are donating on-line, because evelopes is the best, and sometimes the only way to know your participation in our parish. If you are giving electronically, please check the “I give electronically” on the envelope before dropping them into the collection basket.
How Much should I Give to the Parish?
People ask me all the time about tithing. Should we give ten percent of our income to the Church? Is that before taxes or after taxes? How much should I give to the parish? How much should I give to all the charities that send me things in the mail? The older I get the more requests I get in the mail. Sometimes they make me so sad, the pictures of starving children in war torn parts of the world. Sometimes they send me a little gift or a penny. These make me feel particularly guilty. What should I do?
The first thing you have to realize is that the observant Israelite didn’t give ten percent. If he was following all the rules laid down in the Law he was giving about twenty five percent! So what is the percent? Twenty five percent? If you are a Christian you give 100 percent! Here’s what I mean. When you give your life to Christ, you give Him everything. - Fr. Simon

A community in prayer
- Join our Community in Prayer: Starting January 2
After the bishops of the USCCB gathered at Mundelein Seminary for a week-long retreat last January 2, 2019, we encourage you to continue praying for them and for the healing of the Catholic Church.
Please pray the Rosary, attend Daily Mass, engage in an act of penitential sacrifice or simply offer the prayer below.
Prayer for the Healing of Our ChurchLoving God, turn your ear to the cries of your sons and daughters who seek healing for Your Church.
We are heartbroken. We are bruised. We are hurting.
In these days we again wrestle with understanding the heinous acts of abuse by those entrusted with shepherding Your flock.
Ease our troubled hearts. Mend our broken spirits. Be “ever present in our distress."
Merciful Lord, send your Healing Spirit to our brothers and sisters who have endured pain and abuse physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. Comfort their weary spirits. Soothe their pain. Grant them justice.
May our eyes be opened to see your image in these wounded members of Your Church.
Shepherd of Souls, make your presence known to us that these wrongful acts will be addressed. Inspire our bishops, leaders and teachers of the Church to seek new and effective paths to keep safe the flock they shepherd.
Give us all courage to act and speak up on behalf of the most vulnerable.
Rush the winds of the Spirit to scatter the darkness of sin. Pour forth Your healing Spirit to renew our trust and hope in You, who are our refuge and our strength.
We pray in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
