Title
The Gregorian (May, 1989)
Description
This is a monthly newsletter of St. Gregory Church in Chicago titled "The Gregorian," dated May 14, 1989. The date at the top right indicates it's for Pentecost Sunday, May 14, 1989, and a biblical quote from John 20:21b complements the date.

The header of the newsletter is stylized with the title "THE GREGORIAN" in bold, uppercase letters. Below this, in a more decorative font, is "Saint Gregory Church" with its address.

The central part of the page is dedicated to a poem titled "To Mother," which is a touching tribute to motherhood, framed with an illustration of a ribbon and a flower, likely symbolizing love and purity. The poem conveys the theme of divine love and the sacredness of the mother-child relationship, suggested by the lines that speak of Jesus sending the speaker to a caring mother.

In the lower section, there are two announcements framed in boxes. The left one advertises a "MOTHER'S DAY ANNUAL PANCAKE BREAKFAST," encouraging attendance with a whimsical drawing of pancakes and coffee, sponsored by Boy Scout Troop #829. The right one announces "SPIRITUAL RENEWAL" for various church volunteers, detailing an upcoming event with Father Gene Gratkowski.

These components illustrate the newsletter's purpose: to inform the church community about events, celebrate significant occasions, and foster a sense of unity and spirituality among the congregation.
