Away from Home 2 Corinthians 5:6-10
Homesickness afflicts students away at school, workers on business trips and even families on vacation. It is exciting to travel, but going home is always the best part. Home is just that—a place we call our own, a place where we are most ourselves, a place of comfort, a center. It’s pleasant to see something else, but after a while it’s hard to be away.
Paul, the apostle, had ambivalent feelings about “home”. He was a missionary, after all, so he spent a good part of his adult life traveling and taking up different residences thanks to the kindness of strangers. Paul thought more deeply about the meaning of “home”. For him, it was not just a place, it was the very body we inhabit. “We are at home in the body.”
Even so, Paul was not at home with that home. At home in the body meant “we are away from the Lord.” And for Paul, that was the real home: being in the presence of God forever.
The homesickness we experience when we are away is a symptom of the “sickness” we feel throughout our lives. Something is always missing. Love doesn’t work out exactly as we’d hoped. Our skills are never quite as good as we’d like. Even our prayer is often disappointing. What we are missing is what we will experience when we “all appear before the judgment seat of Christ”—a home with the Lord.

Opening Prayer: Led by Gary Gerhardt
Minutes: Gary Gerhardt moved that the minutes from April 25, 2018 be approved and Jeff Kapp seconded the motion.
Lisa Blair asked to amend the agenda item under, “IX. Past Business, C. Parent Advisory Committee – Religious ED” to reflect that this was an idea that was offered at our April meeting regarding parish engagement. This is meant to be a discussion topic.
Pastor’s Report: Father recently spent time with the Lese family on the first anniversary of Kim Lese’s passing. Reflecting upon this and the recent passing of Paul Sanchez, as with all of our families who experience the death of a loved one – makes us so aware again of how much we are blest with a wonderfully supportive community here at Saint Jude’s.
Finance: The proposed 2018-2019 budget draft was reviewed. It was noted how Catherine LaDien, our school president-principal, invests herself deeply to keep Saint Jude School attractive to new families by providing a superior education to students. After considerable work on the part of the Finance Council, we have a well-thought-out budget for the coming year. Mary Voelker moved to approve the budget and Jack Raue seconded the motion. The budget as presented is approved.
Chair’s Report: A discussion followed on engaging the entire parish in community and fundraising events.
Staff Report: Rebekah Blaskowski, Director of Communi-cation and Special Events, reported that work on the St. Jude Parish Golf Outing, July 16, at Western Lakes, is progressing well. The St. Jude Parish Stampede is June 8. There are new activities this year including a dunk tank and a putting contest. More volunteers are needed.
Women of St. Jude: The 2018 Christian Awards were presented to Michael Rentmeester and Maya Nebbia, two 8th graders from St. Jude School. The award is open to all 8th graders in the parish.
Home and School: Mary Voelker shared a list of all the school fundraisers. The Home & School does amazing work in raising funds for the school.
Human Concerns: Paul Maranan reported that the Mother’s Day Rose Sale, to benefit the Wisconsin Right to Life education programs, sold 250 roses and raised $504.00. Parishioners are taking sandwiches for distribution to the MacCanon Brown Homeless Sanctuary on Tuesdays. Volunteers are needed for the 4th of July picnic at the Homeless Sanctuary.

And our gratitude to Rebekah Blaskowski and all the volunteers who helped with this parish event. Thank you everyone!

Urgent Need for Host Family Open your heart and home to Franziska, a Catholic exchange student from Germany for the coming 2018 Fall Semester. A volunteer host family (with or without children) as well as single parents are needed to provide food, a bed and a loving home for the coming school year to Franziska from Germany. She is 15 and she was looking forward to spend the fall semester in America but her host family had to cancel due to a family emergency and a new host family is needed to take over.
EMF students have medical insurance, spending money for their personal expenses and expect to share their host family’s daily life including household responsibilities. They speak English, are well-screened and eager to experience life in America. Their stay here is sponsored and supervised by EMF (Educational Merit Foundation), a non-profit educational exchange organization.
For more information on EMF students, please call Marie-Claude Dijoud now at 1-800-467-8363 or visit our web site at www.emfusa.org.
