giving, said Burry during a recent interview. Individuals are asked to pray the rosary daily at their leisure. Burry said a special in- tention, for the country and for families, will be prayed daily before the rosary. A special prayer will be offered in thanksgiving: "Lord our country is hurting and our families are in need. Thank you for receiving my prayer. Mother Mary and St. Joseph, thank you for your loving intercession. Jesus, I trust in you. Come Holy Spirit, come. Amen." Father Martin Linebach, vicar general of the archdio- cese and spiritual director of the Family Renewal Project, said throughout the history of the church popes have en- couraged praying the rosary in difficult times. The COVID-19 global pan- demic has created such a time, he said. "I don't know that we know the emotional and psy- chological impact COVID-19 has had on us," said Father Linebach during a recent interview. "Families are worried about their financ- es, worried about now that we're preparing to go back to school, how that's going to be. There are middle-age people that are taking care of their elderly parents who are at higher risk. That's all behind the Way of Trust and launching into the 54 days of prayer." Father Linebach said he hopes the 54-day novena will help people persevere and experience a "sense of peace" and know that "with the grace of God and the inter- cession of the Blessed Mother we will be better" because of the hardships brought about by pandemic. "We will be okay. God will not disappoint," said Father Linebach. 300 families, groups, parishes and individu- als, including priests and seminarians in formation for the priesthood, have signed up to pray the no- vena, said Burry. To sign up, visit https://www.family renewalproject.com/theway oftrust/. Those who sign up will receive an encouraging message and a video of an individual, group or family praying the rosary during the 54 days. Burry and her husband, Garry Burry, along with a group of local Catholics founded Family Renewal Project in 2016. Its mission is to "restore the family and re- new the culture by educating and forming men and women to understand, embrace, and live authentic love and re- sponsibility," according to the group's website. Organizers had three goals in mind when the apos- tolate formed, said Burry: To have Theology of the Body - the collection of St. John Paul II's teachings on human sexuality - integrat- ed into the curriculum for el- ementary and high schools in the Archdiocese of Louisville. To share the message of Theology of the Body with individuals of all ages. To establish a Catholic mental health practice. Burry said before the apostolate formed, she trav- eled across the country seek- ing the message of Theology of the Body. On these trips, she met others from the arch- diocese and they'd lament the fact they had to travel far away for that message. In 2013 she attended the The- ology of the Body Institute in Pennsylvania where she learned about St. John Paul II's teachings. "I wept. I thought 'why have I lived my whole life and not heard this before.' It put flesh on the bones of my faith," said Burry. Now, Family Renewal Project has made Theology of the Body available to in- dividuals of all ages across the archdiocese through a series of presentations by educators Cathy Blandford, a master catechist, and John Sohl, who is Family Renewal Project's director of education formation. Sohl is preparing to receive a master's certifi- cation from the Theology of the Body Institute. In addition to its education ministry, Family Renewal Project offers Wine and Won- der women's ministry, Silent Knights ministry for men and Catholic Couples Net- work for engaged and newly married couples. The project's newest min- istry is the Good Shepherd Institute of the Bluegrass (GSIB) Psychological Services Center. The institute opened last October with the mission of "providing mental health care that is founded on and informed by the Catholic un- derstanding of what makes a person healthy," said Eli- na Holland. Holland - who holds a master's in clinical psychology from the Institute of the Psychological Sciences at Divine Mercy University - serves as a therapist at the GSIB and a mental health educator for the apostolate. She usually offers in-office therapy sessions but health and safety restrictions put in place due to the COVID-19 pandemic have prevented in-person meetings. She is currently offering therapy sessions through a video platform that is secure and compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) laws, she said. In-office sessions, for in- dividuals, couples and fami- lies, take place at St. James Church in Elizabethtown, Ky., and at St. Raphael Church, 2141 Lancashire Avenue. For more informa- tion on the services offered, call 632-3249. To learn more about Fam- ily Renewal Project, visit https://www.familyrenewal project.com/.

Continued from Page One beyond the normal avenues. "It's that idea to use all means to evangelize I took to heart," she said. Some of her clues in- clude doctrine or rules of the church, others are pop cul- ture references to the church. Bartlett also likes to include trivia involving saints and other church figures. For example, in a recent puzzle, clues included "Give us this ___" (day) and "Catho- lic Canadian Prime Minister, Joe _____" (Clark). "I get inspiration all throughout the day. I'm al- ways looking for something," she said. In addition to crossword puzzles, she has created word-games books, including compilations of crosswords and word searches. She considers her business venture - Word Games for Catholics - as a way to honor her mother, Flora McLaugh- lin. "I do it because I think of my mother. She loved cross- word puzzles and she was stuck in her wheelchair, in her house," she said. Bartlett said she hopes her puzzles are a source of entertainment for people. "It gives people some en- tertaining way to learn about their faith or to practice what they know," she said. And for those who are in- timidated by crossword puz- zles, including this reporter, Bartlett recommends practice. "It's not necessarily about having an extensive vocabu- lary. Most words I use are not unusual. You just need to practice, to get a feel for the clues," she said. Bartlett has three grown children and three grandchil- dren. She is a parishioner of St. Frances of Rome Church.

discuss the job seekers' needs and interests. "Instead of the traditional 'tombstone' layout resume, we work at incorporating a visual presentation along with a marketing document," said Bowen, who has more than 20 years of experience in human resources. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has wrought havoc on the job market and econo- my, first with the widespread closures and now, in some cases, the re-closing of local and state economies as the number of coronavirus cases resurges. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported July 2 the unemployment rate in the U.S. fell slightly to 11.1% in June, a little better than the previous month's percentage, which was 13.3%. Bowen suspects the mar- ket will decline before it gets better. All the more reason to have professionals assist candidates who are searching for more meaningful employ- ment, he said. The ministry provides periodic workshops on such subjects as resume writing, networking, personal brand- ing, interviewing skills, man- aging finances during un- employed periods and fran- chising. The ministry also periodi- cally publishes notices on job leads, personal branding tips, job fairs and networking op- portunities. Another component of the ministry is spiritual and emo- tional support, Bowen said. "I'll be the first to admit, a loss of a job is more than a loss of income. Job loss is something I've experienced and a number of our advi- sors have experienced," he said. Oftentimes, he said, those who have lost jobs rush back to the market place to find another job. It's understand- able, he said, but a more thoughtful approach may prove beneficial. Searching for a new job takes organization, persis- tence and "relentless" net- working, Bowen said. The added support of the ministry is intended to increase a can- didate's likelihood of securing employment. Bowen said he feels called to "walk with individuals" and to remind them of their inherent human dignity. "We tell individuals 'A job is not who you are, but what you do. You are a fine human being with a lot of talent. You are just in between opportu- nities,' " he said. This isn't the first time Epiphany parishioners have reached out to those seeking employment. A similar min- istry emerged following the Great Recession more than a decade ago. Called Network Employment Transition, the program met with success, Bowen said. Participation is open to the public. One need not be a member of Epiphany parish or be Catholic to participate. Contact Brayton Bowen by text or phone at 558-2154 or email brayton@howland group.com. Inquiries are con- fidential.
