Wednesday, November 3, 2010 Edition #14 Cathedral High School Vision Cathedral High School, a Catholic institution, will be the model for all high schools as she profoundly shapes the way students think, serve and lead. Dear Cathedral Parents, Cathedral High School Mission Cathedral, a Catholic college preparatory high school, provides to a diverse group of students opportunities for spiritual, intellectual, social, emotional and physical growth through service and academic excellence. This past weekend, some of our students and Cathedral fans displayed poor behavior at our Boys’ Soccer State Finals game with Warsaw High School. On Tuesday, I addressed this situation with all of our school population after the All-School All Souls’ Day Liturgy. Please bring this topic up with your students and discuss the situation with them. I hope these types of conversations bring us closer and closer to living out our Cathedral School Mission. On Tuesday, November 9th, we will have a special schedule. This means that school will begin at 7:55 a.m. Please make note of this so that your students are not tardy for school.

The phonathon team will be calling alumni in support of the Cathedral Fund on the evenings of November 3 and 4. The Advancement Office is seeking good phonathon student-participants from all grade levels for our team. Last year the team raised thousands of dollars for the Cathedral Fund. We’re looking for a team of friendly, confident, and involved students who would enjoy the opportunity to call alumni and ask for their support of this important cause. The Cathedral Fund, our annual giving program, provides support for educational initiatives not fully covered by tuition. Students may sign up for one, two, or as many evenings as they can work. The Advancement Office provides training for the team, alumni calling lists, a word-for-word script, pizza and pop, cash prizes, and service hours. Calling will be done from CHS offices from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m. during the above evenings under the direction of Mrs. Diane Szymanski, Director of the Cathedral Fund. This is great philanthropic experience for students and is a fitting follow-up to the Magazine Sale. This activity can be referenced in their high school resume for college applications. Students can win cash prizes each evening, and we also award prizes for the most successful callers of the overall phonathon. Mrs. Szymanski will award service hours for this work. If you think your student would be a good candidate for this important activity, please encourage her or him to contact Mrs. Szymanski at dszymanski@cathedral-irish.org, or remind them to stop by the Advancement Office (Kelly Hall across from Guidance Center) to sign up!

Class Service Projects As an insight regarding the good works that we can accomplish this year, ponder this scripture: “I will look after my sheep, says the Lord, and I will raise up one shepherd who will pasture them. I, the Lord, will be their God.” Ez 34:11, 23-24. This scripture reminds us that our core being rests in God. As such, it is also our call to serve our fellow mankind, as we are all sheep in God’s care. In November, sophomores will be helping serve our popular spaghetti dinner to the Lord’s Pantry members on Wednesday, November 10 from 3:30-7:15 PM. You may also join our outreach on Saturday, Nov 13, 10:00-1:30, when juniors will be serving up a fabulous lunch for the Saturday noon meal at the Cathedral Soup Kitchen. Freshmen will begin helping at the Catholic Charities Christmas Store on Nov 18 and 19. Details on all of these on-going class service projects are noted below in Service Opportunities as wonderful expressions of giving and grace. School Wide Canned Food Drive for Nov 1-5 As a school wide drive, the Student Council will be leading us in a canned food drive for Holy Cross Thanksgiving Distribution during the week of Nov 1-5. See details below for service hour, jeans days and math incentives for great participation in this event. Remember, we are asked to give 20 cans of either green beans, corn, or fruit or $10 to support these drives for Holy Cross. Coats For Kids On October 30, nine Cathedral students helped 115 children from Anna’s House ministries to obtain free coats from the State Fairgrounds. Cathedral also provided four buses to transport these students from the west side Anna’s House to the Fairgrounds and back. Mrs. Carol Boyle, from a dedicated Cathedral family, led this outreach for 18 the second year. Theresa Schrader, junior, shared that “helping these kids made me realize that we have a lot of belongings that we take for granted. These children, ranging in age from five years old to high school, were very happy to simply get coats.” Kudos to our Cathedral students Natalie Dickman, Catherine Erath, Grace Hendrikson, Oliver McKay, Clorrissa Orrick, Olivia Price, Theresa Schrader, Kaylee Titsworth, Colleen Whiting and many Cathedral parents. These young, active bodies can stay healthy and ready for learning with warm coats this winter. The Lord’s Pantry is located in one of the poorest parts of Indianapolis. Great job again is recognized for our Cathedral students generously helping in their community. Reminder: Save Your Coats and Jeans For The Homeless We will have our annual coat and warm clothes drive for the homeless during the week of November 16-18. New Orleans Mission Trip: To NOLA With Love. Our work in the Lower Ninth Ward was so enlightening for the group of 66 Cathedral students and chaperones just returning from our Fall Mission trip to New Orleans. We learned of the challenges that the Lower Ninth Ward has to rebuild its community when two out of four homes are deserted, boarded up, or simply bulldozed in the aftermath of Katrina five years ago. Originally in the Lower Ninth Ward, there were two high schools and five elementary schools; currently only one elementary school has re-opened. In our work with grass roots agencies, we helped with ramps, fences, community gardens, high weeds on deserted property, cemetery grooming for an indigent population and simple chores for the elderly, mostly throughout the Lower Ninth Ward. We shared cards of hope and well wishes with community residents and learned their stories, each one unique and compelling, from all residents that we encountered. Our work was then topped off by a wonderful breakfast at Café DuMonde and our Sunday mass at the St. Louis Cathedral, a cathedral more than 280 years old. We left New Orleans with a keen appreciation of its challenges and charms. Here is the list of the wonderful students who journeyed on this mission trip: Brian Balog John Eckhart Olivia Jarrett Eileen Smart Josie Barrett Lee Engelmann Lauren Keisler Freddy Sprunger Chelsea Berry Matt Fangman Jack Kelly Caroline Sprunger Danila Burnham Lexie Ferguson Jasmine Kennedy Jake Subrin Liz Subrin Olivia Burris Rachel Fischer Andrew Klein Jimmy Suess Molly Carter Evan Fiscus Raffi Mercho Sam Thompson Ben Carter Brandon Flood Kasey Morgan Mark Troiano Mary Christ Olivia Flynn Sarah Peabody Alaina Turchi Kevin Collins Lauren Foley Jasarah Perkins Danny Tuttle Kiersten Crowe Tom French Connor Phelan Sam White Maddie Crowe Catherine Goodin Hanna Priscu Gabby Wright Rachel Demyan Nick Graham Lexi Proffitt Andrew Young Colin Donnelly Erin Hedlund Brad Radican Megan Donnelly Shelby Hyde Ali Saum Carlene Eckhart Meghan Searight Cathedral Clubs and Chapters Serving It Up! In addition to our class service projects, students from Cathedral High are active in their community in so many valiant and giving ways: Mentoring Magic: 85 high school students mentor every week after school at IPS 58, IPS 106, Belzer MS and IPS 15 to build academic strengths and self -confidence. SAVE (Students Against Violence Everywhere: 20 students help at the Julian Center, educate, fundraise and advocate to help stop domestic violence. Miracle Place: Students are helping at Miracle Place on Tuesdays and Thursdays. 19 ACTS (A Chance To Serve): Students help with Wheeler Mission meals and other community needs. Habitat for Humanity: Fundraising, home repair and building, helping at the Habitat home store, educating and advocating for low cost housing. Invisible Children: Raising money for schools in Uganda. Kids Against Hunger: Packaging foods for malnourished areas of the world, especially Haiti. TGIF: (Taking Global Issues Further): Fundraising for needs in Pakistan and other worldwide concerns. Catholic Charities (Refugee Needs): Two Cathedral student ambassadors will be directing us in the refugee needs. Girls On The Run: Girls Mentoring elementary students in running and self-esteem. Riley’s Dance Marathon: With the help of over 100 students, the team raised $5300 for Riley’s Children Hospital. USO: Students travel six times a year to Camp Atterbury to support deploying soldiers. Interact (affiliated with Rotary): Students are supporting Gleaners, Lord’s Pantry and raise funds to prevent polio world-wide. The leadership of these chapters and clubs is student led and student initiated. We can be very proud of our student activism demonstrated in these areas of need. “Make It Mine” Service Outreach Cathedral students are leading the way planning a service outreach for 200 IPS middle school students in our community. We are coordinating a special day of events combining reading, athletics and other passions such as art, music and dance which will be held at the University of Indianapolis. The theme for this day is “MAKE IT MINE”. We have already earned on grant of $1,500 and are planning more grants regarding our Saturday, Dec 4 2010 and Saturday, Feb 26, 2011 events. Our next meeting is Sunday, Nov 14 at 12:30 PM in room 3304 (Mr. Payne’s room). Please email Jasmine Whitaker, Imani Parker-Robinson, Haley Roach or Mrs. Halstead (chalstead@cathedral-irish.org) with your interest. Many juniors and sophomores are involved in this project. This program has two outreach dates: the first one is Saturday, Dec 4 at IPS #106 and the second one is Feb 26, 2010 at the University of Indianapolis, 9:30-2:30 PM each event. As it is our goal to present this day to 200 IPS middle school students in February, the December event is a smaller test of the program for about 100 students. These two events are targeted for IPS middle school students to help them commit to their academics, high school graduation and greater successes in life.

Let's be honest, it is very difficult. You need to look no further than college football the past three weeks where the number one team in the nation lost each week. When you play on a top ranked team be prepared to take your opponent's "best shot" in every game you play. Getting to the top is a long and tough journey. Staying there can be even tougher!

For God is the one who … works in you both to desire and to work.” (Philippians 2:12-13) That’s quite a mouthful, isn’t it? And at first blush, it appears that Paul is saying two opposite things. Are we supposed to work out our salvation on our own? Or does God do all the work in us while we simply sit back and relax? As with so many other truths of the faith, the answer lies in the middle: Only through a combination of our hard work and God’s sovereign grace will we be able to grow up into Christ. At the heart of the gospel message is the wonderful truth that Jesus has redeemed us from sin and death. Our redemption is an act of immense mercy on his part, something we could never achieve on our own. But now that we have been redeemed, God calls us to work with his grace so that we can continue to grow into the salvation he has won for us. St. Augustine once wrote: “We also work, but we are only collaborating with God who works, for his mercy has gone before us. It has gone before us so that we may be healed, and follows us so that once healed, we may be given life; it goes before us so that we may be called, and follows us so that we may be glorified; it goes before us so that we may live devoutly, and follows us so that we may always live with God: for without him we can do nothing.” Think of it as a kind of dance with the divine. Every dance starts with a first step, and as God offers us his outstretched hand, we—clumsily at first but then more fluidly—lean into his strength and follow his lead. As we take up the challenge of saying no to our fallen nature and saying yes to his will, he multiplies the fruit of our efforts. Our fear of falling out of step with him spurs us on in faith as we become more and more confident in him. So let’s joyfully cooperate with God every day, so that together with him we can create a beautiful work of art that glorifies him and his love. “Jesus, take my hand and lead me today.” Blessings, Principal Cathedral High School dworland@cathedral-irish.org 28
