Dear Community of St. Nicholas, While Easter Sunday in St. Peter’s Square felt like a culmination of the spiritual growth I had experi-enced throughout my semester in Rome, that growth had its roots in my visit with our Renaissance/Baroque Art History course to the renowned Church of the Gesù on March 24. I was excited to see the mother church of the Society of Jesus because my now-deceased great-uncle had been a Jesuit himself, but I expected nothing out of the ordinary from our field trip; we had visited many churches already and we would visit many more.

After our professor explained the art-historical significance of the commanding façade and the ex-quisite interior, he allowed us to spend several minutes engaging with the space on our own. Feeling drawn to the gilded tomb of St. Ignatius, I knelt at the balustrade. Noticing prayer cards in several lan-guages, I picked up an English one and began to read. The prayer, too long to recount in full, ended with the words, “Give me love of yourself along with your grace, for that is enough for me.” Almost immediate-ly, I felt infused with a rush and a hum that still today I cannot adequately explain. I was amazed at the glo-ry of God made manifest in that beautiful church. I wanted to shout out, to tell my fellow students what had happened and share my feelings of awe and ela-tion. Yet, I remained silent as our professor gathered us to continue the day’s tour. As we left the Gesù and the Ignatian apartments next door, my spirit settled.

I cannot claim to have seen the Lord as clearly as Moses did in today’s First Reading, but I under-stand the proclamation of “a God merciful and gra-cious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness” much more clearly than I did before that day in the Gesù. Wherever God guides me, I hope to fulfill Paul’s exhortation to “live in peace” as Jesus did.

Thank you for listening to my reflections these past two weeks. I have always been proud to call St. Nicholas my home parish. I am ever grateful to worship with you.

God bless. Evan

Estimada Comunidad de San Nicolás, Mientras que el Domingo de Pascua en la Plaza de San Pedro se sentía como una culminación del crecimien-to espiritual que había experimentado durante mi semes-tre en Roma, ese crecimiento tuvo sus raíces en mi visita con nuestro curso de Historia del Arte Renacentista / Ba-rroco a la famosa Iglesia del Gesù del 24 de Marzo. Yo estaba emocionado de ver a la madre iglesia de la Com-pañía de Jesús porque mi tío abuelo ya fallecido había sido un jesuita, pero yo no esperaba nada fuera de lo co-mún de nuestro viaje; Ya habíamos visitado muchas igle-sias y visitaríamos muchas más.

Después de que nuestro profesor explicará el signifi-cado histórico-artístico de la fachada dominante y el inte-rior exquisito, nos permitió pasar varios minutos obser-vando el espacio por nuestra cuenta. Sintiéndome atraído por la tumba dorada de San Ignacio, me arrodillé ante la balaustrada. Viendo las tarjetas de oración en varios idio-mas, cogí una inglesa y empecé a leer. La oración, dema-siado larga para contarla en su totalidad, terminó con las palabras: “Dame amor de ti mismo con tu gracia, porque eso es suficiente para mí.” Casi inmediatamente, me sentí infundido por una ráfaga y un zumbido que todavía hoy no puedo explicar adecuadamente. Me sorprendió la glo-ria de Dios manifestada en esa hermosa iglesia. Quería gritar, contar a mis compañeros lo que había pasado y compartir mis sentimientos de asombro y alegría. Sin em-bargo, permanecí en silencio mientras nuestro profesor nos reunía para continuar la gira del día. Cuando dejamos a Gesù y los apartamentos ignacianos al lado, mi espíritu se estableció.

No puedo afirmar que he visto al Señor tan claramen-te como Moisés lo hizo en la Primera Lectura de hoy, pe-ro entiendo la proclamación de “un Dios misericordioso y lleno de gracia, lento para la ira y abundante en amor y fidelidad” mucho más claramente que antes de ese día en Gesù. Donde quiera que Dios me guíe, espero cumplir la exhortación de Pablo de “vivir en paz” como lo hizo Je-sús.

Gracias por escuchar mis reflexiones en las últimas dos semanas. Siempre he estado orgulloso de llamar a San Nicolás mi parroquia de origen. Siempre estoy agra-decido de adorar con ustedes.

Dios los bendiga. Evan

Listening Sessions – Still time to Respond Thank you to everyone who participated in our parish listening sessions last weekend. Because of gradua-tions and several other events, several of our regular parishioners were unable to attend and we wanted to invite you to respond to the two questions we asked:

1. What is one thing you love about St. Nicholas Parish?

2. In order to see our parish grow, is there one thing you would like to see us change in terms of Ministry, Liturgy or Administration?

As Fr. Tito’s first year comes to a close, the Parish Pastoral Council would like to provide him with your feedback. Please send your comments to us no later than Mon-day, June 19, 2017 and they will be included with the other feedback. Please send to: Sheila Hebein shebein@nads.org. Or you can drop off your comments to the rectory.

Sesiones de Escuchar– Aun Hay Tiempo de Responder Gracias a todos los que participaron en las sesiones de escuchar de la parroquia el último fin de semana, debi-do a graduaciones y otros eventos, muchos de nuestros feligreses regulares no pudieron acompañarnos y les queremos invitar a que respondan a las dos preguntas que se hicieron:

1. ¿Que es la cosa que más le gusta de San Nico-lás? 2. Para poder ver crecer a nuestra parroquia, ¿hay alguna cosa que le gustaría cambiar en términos de Ministerio, Liturgia o Administración?

Al terminar el primer año del Padre Tito, el Concilio Pastoral Parroquial le gustaría poder compartir con el sus pensamientos. Por favor mande sus respuestas antes del 19 de junio del 2017, para incluirlas con las otras respuestas. Mande sus respuestas a: Sheila Hebein, she-bein@nads.org o déjelas en la oficina en la rectoría.

Dear Parishioners, I am pleased to introduce myself as your new Director of Music Ministry, and I am beyond excited to become a part of your spirit-filled faith community! My life in the Chicagoland area began right here in Evanston. In the fall of 2010, I moved from my hometown of Little Rock, Arkansas into a small studio apartment on the corner of Sherman and Grove. I pursued a Master’s Degree in Music at Northwestern University and worked at Alice Millar Chapel. After I completed my studies, I sang with the professional Schola at Ho-ly Name Cathedral for two years. I then returned to Evanston to work as the Assistant Director of Music at First United Methodist Church. For the past year, I have been the Director of Music at St. Cornelius Church in the Jefferson Park neighborhood. Now I come to you and am tickled that my journey once again brings me back to Evanston! In addition to being a church musician, I work as a professional singer. I perform with ensembles such as the Chicago Symphony Chorus, Grant Park Chorus, and Chicago a cappella. Additionally, I teach private voice at Highland Park High School. I offer my heartfelt thanks to Fr. Tito, the Search Committee, John Schuchert, and the dedicated musicians of St. Nicholas for entrusting me with this role. I look forward to officially joining you all next month!

Blessings, Ace Gangoso

Estimados Feligreses, Me da un placer presentarme como el Nuevo Director del Ministerio de Música, y ¡estoy más que excitado de ser parte de su comunidad de fe llena del espíritu!

Después regrese a Evanston para trabajar como Asistente Director de Música en la Iglesia First United Methodist.

A recent executive order, signed on March 6, imposes travel restrictions for nationals of six Muslim majority countries; sus-pends refugee resettlement for 120 days; and drastically reduces the number of refugees the United States welcomes from 110,000 to 50,000, a historic low.
