NEIGHBORS and PICNICS

I was seven years old back in 1952 when my family moved into the family home in St. Francis de Sales Parish in Parma.

Our street had some older homes on it, but the majority of houses like our own were newly constructed. Most were one

and-a-half story bungalows with the only difference being whether the house’s driveway was on the east or west side of

the house. In a way we were pioneers as new residents in a new neighborhood. I don’t know how it was decided (I was in

only the second grade) but groups of neighbors on a Sunday afternoon would drag picnic tables up the driveway on the

shady (east) side of a house and enjoy hamburgers and hotdogs, or barbecued ribs, etc., and other foods. We knew

everyone on the block and on nice summer evenings neighbors would gather on front porches or lawnchairs on their front

lawns to discuss whatever grown-ups talked about as we kids played in front.

As I have gone from being a seven year old to being in my seventies (our Pastor, the chicken farmer, is no spring chicken

either), I realize much of our world has changed. The new catch phrases of wisdom for children is “stranger danger,” “just

say ‘no,’” and a general feeling conveyed to children to beware. From only three TV channels of ABC, CBS, and NBC,

we now have literally hundreds of television stations that occupy our interest instead of gathering on porches and at

neighborhood picnics.

In this weekend’s gospel passage “a scholar of the law” who had asked Jesus, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal

life?” turns out to already know the answer to his own question. The scholar went on to respond to Jesus’ question to him

with the response to love God “...and your neighbor as yourself.” Jesus then continued with His parable or teaching story

which we usually refer to as The Good Samaritan. The whole point of Jesus’ teaching was that loving a neighbor means

responding appropriately to just about anyone who is in need such as in His parable, the man who “fell victim to robbers.”

We who live in the twenty-first century may not use the word scholar to refer to ourselves, but we today should understand

Jesus’ teaching about how to treat our neighbors. A number of days after our NBA national champion Cavaliers had their

welcome home/victory parade through downtown Cleveland, one of our local TV stations had a short presentation that

showed that some people in that huge, over one hundred thousand person crowd, knew how to respond to Jesus’ teaching

to love our neighbor. There were two different men in wheelchairs in that vast crowd as Lebron James passed by. And for

each of them as “the King” went by, the people around the wheelchair users raised up the fellows in their wheelchairs, so

that these handicapped persons could see Lebron James go by in the motorcade. Those who hoisted up the wheelchairs

with their occupants most likely did not themselves see Lebron go by, giving up their own opportunity for the sake of their

neighbor in the wheelchair. Toward the end of this news article one of the wheelchair persons gushed forth with his

happiness that “Lebron waved at me and gave me a thumbs up as he went by” Both of these handicapped wheelchair users

had been “loved” by their neighbors. Jesus said, “Go and do likewise.”

This weekend the picnic is not in a neighborhood driveway but rather here on our parish grounds. Our second annual

Parish Picnic begins after the 11:30 AM Mass and continues on to 4:00 PM. There is more information about our Parish

Picnic elsewhere in this bulletin. Come join your neighbors and fellow parishioners.

TASTE OF CEDAR

For the cost of a pair of socks, a big ice cream cone, a car

wash, folks in the eastside heights will be able to delight

their taste buds endlessly.

Imagine having a cookie, a cup cake, a Chinese delicacy, a

hamburger, a pizza slice, yogurt, more Chinese, an Italian

specialty, a gee whiz coffee, a jazzed-up chicken wing and

a fancy soup.

And then do it all over again, and for how much? $10. The

restaurants in Cedar Center are offering a “Taste” of their

businesses, July 14 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. and all you

have to do is bring your appetite and a sawbuck.

Beyond that, Rick and Sharona will entertain you with their

lounge act and folks will get a chance to bid on baskets of

food and other goodies. Best of all, the money raised by

this program will help poor elderly people in South Euclid

get their houses fixed. Some elderly families will receive

gifts for Christmas and Thanksgiving.

Tickets for the event will be sold at South Euclid City Hall

in the office of Mayor Georgine Welo, at the South Euclid

Community Center, South Euclid Hardware and from all

the members of the South Euclid Commission on Aging.

For information call, Jim Lawless, president of the

commission at 216-291-4358. Other members are Carrie

Cense, Ronda Flowers, Chuck Ishler, Donald Lisy,

Gwendolyn Strayhan and Maydene Young.

With God, all things are possible...

I am blessed and excited to be named inaugural principal of

Corpus Christi Academy, a Catholic school and community

of faith for preschool through 8th grade. What a thrilling

time for the parish communities of both Sacred Heart of

Jesus and Saint Clare, who accepted the challenge to make

Corpus Christi possible. I am grateful to Fr. Ireland and Fr.

Klasinski as well as our steering committee and parents.

I began my Catholic journey at Saint Robert’s in Euclid

and at Saint Ignatius High School. With a bachelors degree

in Education at Ohio University, I started my teaching

career at Holy Trinity School in Avon as the Middle School

Social Studies teacher and Assistant to the Principal. Two

years ago I moved to the same positions at Saint Angela

Merici Parish School in Fairview Park and began my

Masters in Educational Leadership at Baldwin Wallace

University. I have a loving wife and two beautiful

daughters.

I am excited to have hired faithful, experienced and

passionate teachers to help launch Corpus Christi

Academy. With a solid academic curriculum as well as the

arts, we are ready to build a new legacy.
