Dear St. Anastasia Parishioners,
I am writing to ask you to generously support the Annual Catholic Appeal. Each winter, Cardinal George writes to former contributors and new parish members asking for financial support for this fund that maintains ministries, programs and services benefiting all Catholics in the Archdiocese of Chicago and throughout the world.

Featured Author: Joseph F. Girzone
Here are two titles by author Joseph F. Girzone. Continuing his series on Joshua, the stranger who enters people’s lives with amazing results, Girzone gives us Joshua and the Children , an easy read, in which Joshua enters an ordinary village beset by senseless violence. His influence , first on the children of the village, soon spreads to the adults and everyone is changed by Joshua and his kindness, gentleness and compassion.
In The Parables of Joshua, Girzone re-examines many of Jesus’ parables by reviving the timeless messages behind them and “ dressing them in modern clothes “, presenting them through Joshua in a conversational style that resonates with modern readers.
Jim Ratajczyk, parish librarian, reviews books and multimedia items on the topic of faith and living each month.
