July 2017
Dear Brothers & Sisters, It is a joy to greet you in the midst of Sum-mer 2017! All the preparations for the Apos-tolate’s 39th year at the Tommy Bartlett Show are well under way. I hope you have August 25, 2017 on your calendar and that you will be able to enjoy a won-derful day. The staff of the Bart-lett show welcome us every year, and I am so grateful to the many volunteers who make it a good experience for all who participate. Of course we can-not predict the weather, but we prayerfully hope for a beautiful day! Msgr. Thomas Campion began the Aposto-late 50 years ago per the request of then Bishop Cletus O’Donnell. I have been privi-leged to serve as the Director since July, 2011 striving to continue the ministry Msgr. TC began. It has been a special blessing to have welcomed Deacon Jim Hoegemeier and Kellie O’Brien to the Apostolate staff as full-time employees. Together we are com-mitted to continuing and broadening the ministry of the Apostolate throughout the Diocese of Madison. To this end, and after much consultation, we are introducing a new name for the Apostolate that expresses the ministry at
this current time. Please know, the purpose, the goals, and expanded work of the Aposto-late continue, but with a new name – Apos-tolate for Persons with Disabilities-Diocese of Madison – and a new logo. The logo is a simple hand of Love, Care and Com-passion, with the Cross at the center of the
circle expressing this special minis-try of the Church that is centered in Jesus Christ. As the name and logo become more familiar, may the Apostolate contin-ue to bring the message of Christ’s love and support to all as we are one family in the Church. I hope to cele-
brate with you at the Dells on August 25th, and be assured of my prayers for you.
Msgr. Larry Bakke

Nothing Ordinary
About Ordinary Time
In the liturgical year of the Church, we are now in
the period known as Ordinary Time. Other times of
the liturgical year focus on particular aspects of the
mystery of Christ. In the season of Advent, we pre-
pare for the birth of Jesus, when God became incar-
nate. During the season of Lent, we seek conversion
of our hearts as we prepare to celebrate the fulfill-
ment of the Paschal Mystery. Throughout the year,
there are various feasts that are celebrated.
The introduction to the Roman Missal, the book
that provides the specific guidelines for celebrating
Mass throughout the liturgical year, states that Ordi-
nary Time is the period of the liturgical year when
“the mystery of Christ itself is honored in its fullness,

especially on Sundays.”
The United States Conference of Catholic Bish-
ops teaches us that, “Ordinary Time is a time for
growth and maturation, a time in which the mys-
tery of Christ is called to penetrate ever more
deeply into history until all things are finally caught
up in Christ. The goal, toward which all of history is
directed, is represented by the final Sunday in Ordi-
nary Time, the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
King of the Universe.”
During this time of year in the Midwest, we are
surrounded by
green grass, lush
trees and rapidly
growing plants in
surrounding farm
fields. It is most
appropriate that
the color of this
liturgical season
is green, a reminder of the life and growth in our
spiritual lives that comes from embracing the full-
ness of the mystery of Christ during Ordinary Time.

Parish Inclusion Advocates
Starting this summer, the Apostolate is seeking individuals from throughout the diocese to serve as an advo-
cate for inclusion of people with disabilities at their parish and a contact person for the Apostolate’s activi-
ties.
To nominate a person at your parish, please write a brief letter to the Apostolate explaining why they would
be a great advocate for people with disabilities. Recommendations directly from pastors will be considered
first.
Once selected, the individuals will attend a training session and a monthly phone touch base with the Apos-
tolate staff to ensure they have the support they need.
Please consider nominating someone or talk to your pastor if you would like to take on this role at your par-
ish.

Catechesis of the
Good Shepherd
Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
creates a space where children can
learn about and encounter Jesus in
their own hearts. It is easily
adapted for children with intellec-
tual and developmental disabilities
because it is designed to let every
child progress at their own pace
based on their interests.
This year, several parishes in the
Madison area are starting or pre-
paring to start to offer Catechesis
of the Good Shepherd as an option
for religious education of the chil-
dren in their parish.
Kellie O’Brien, the project manager
for the Apostolate, attended the
first week of Level 1 Training. Lev-
el 1 prepares catechists to work
with 3-6 year old children.
Unlike traditional religious educa-
tion, Catechesis of the Good Shep-
herd is cyclical, reintroducing core
themes every year. It seeks to focus
on the essentials and to give chil-
dren the tools (words, gestures,
experiences) to fully participate in
the liturgical life of the Church.
To attend a Catechesis of the Good
Shepherd Class, a child will go to
an atrium. An atrium is a special
room that is designed for children
to come and work with materials
to learn about their faith.
Catechists strive to create an envi-
ronment that is special and set
apart for prayer and learning
about Jesus. Materials are made to
be child sized by people in each
parish.
If you would like to volunteer or
learn more, please contact
Michelle Nilsson at 608-821-4545.
