Healing the Living, Raising Another thing we can learn from both the Gospels and the the Dead… Tradion of the Church is that God’s grace comes to us in many ways. The sacraments are the way par excellence— Whenever there is a crisis, people are especially the Most Holy Eucharist—but God is generous and bound to have different ideas about the creave and has many other ways to reach out and share his best way to approach it. The same is true life with us. These include personal prayer, reading the Bible of the spread of COVID-19. This kind of and other good spiritual books, praying the Liturgy of the disagreement exists among us Catholics, Hours and spending me serving Jesus in his disguise of those too.

A new Plenary Indulgence During the Coronavirus Pandemic

Plenary Indulgences in General. The Catechism of the Catholic Church n. 1472 teaches that “sin has a double consequence. Grave sin deprives us of communion with God and therefore makes us incapable of eternal life, the privaon of which is called the ‘eternal punishment’ of sin. On the other hand, every sin, even venial, entails an unhealthy aachment to creatures, which must be purified either here on earth, or a er death in the state called Purgatory. This purificaon frees one from what is called the ‘temporal punishment’ of sin.”

Just as the Sacrament of Reconciliaon removes the eternal punishment of sin by sacramental absoluon, so too an Indulgence removes the temporal punishment of sin. The word “indulgence” comes from the Lan indulgere, meaning “to be kind or yield to another.” The Lord wants to be kind to his people, and the normal channel he does so is through the Church. The Church’s authority to grant indulgences is based upon the mandate of Jesus Christ: “Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Ma. 16:19). When the Church grants an indulgence, she “looses” someone from the temporal punishments resulng from sin, and this has heavenly consequences.

The Church desires to dispense this grace generously, yet not indiscriminately. She wants the faithful to be prepared for this grace, lest it overwhelm them. Consequently, the Church prescribes spiritual pracces the faithful are asked to perform, not to earn the indulgence—no one can earn grace—but to demonstrate their readiness to receive grace. These pracces can include praying certain prayers and receiving the Sacraments.

Some pracces are less demanding. These demonstrate a person is parally ready to be loosed and thus can receive a Paral Indulgence. In extraordinary circumstances, however, the Church grants a Plenary Indulgence, meaning the recipient will be loosed from all (the plenitude of) temporal consequences due to sin. The Holy See has determined that the Coronavirus crisis is one such extraordinary circumstance.

Plenary Indulgence During the Time of Coronavirus As Archbishop Hebda indicated in his March 20, 2020 leer, the Apostolic Penitenary has announced the gi of a special Plenary Indulgence for the faithful suffering from COVID-19 disease, commonly known as Coronavirus, as well as to health care workers, family members and all those who care for them in any capacity, including through prayer.

Who can receive this Indulgence? The Decree specifies (1) those who have contracted the Coronavirus and are thus quaranned and unable to receive the Church’s sacraments normally; (2) health care workers, family members, and those exposing themselves to contagion as they care for those with the Coronavirus; and (3) those who visit the Blessed Sacrament, do Eucharisc Adoraon, read the Holy Scriptures for at least a half hour, recite the Rosary, pray the Way of the Cross, or recite the Chaplet of Divine Mercy “to implore from Almighty God the end of the [Coronavirus] epidemic, relief for those who are afflicted and eternal salvaon for those whom the Lord has called to Himself.” How do candidates for this Indulgence receive it? To receive a Plenary Indulgence a person is required to: Have been bapzed, in a state of grace, and not excommunicated; Desire to be free from aachment to sin; Pray for the Holy Father’s intenons with the Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, and a Marian prayer such as the Hail Mary; Confess one’s sins and receive sacramental absoluon; and Aend Mass and receive Holy Communion.

Normally, these should happen in proximity of each other, usually within a week. However, the Decree acknowledges that because of the Coronavirus persons might not be able to aend Mass (except electronically/remotely), receive Communion, nor individually confess sins and receive sacramental absoluon. Nevertheless, they may sll obtain the Plenary Indulgence, provided they intend to go to confession, aend Mass, and receive Communion “as soon as possible.” The Decree does not put a me limit on this condion.

What about those unable to fulfill the condions? As can be seen above, virtually any of the faithful with the right intenons, even those quaranned, can fulfill the requirements. God is merciful and understands persons’ hearts.

Can indulgences be gained to benefit others? Persons on earth are responsible for their own desny and cannot be granted grace against their will; hence Indulgences cannot be applied to others sll living (they may refuse the grace). But those who have died and been judged worthy of eternal life, but are not yet ready for heaven because of aachments to earthly pleasures, are being purged of these aachments. Hence, those in Purgatory can benefit from our Indulgences. We can pray, “Lord, may X who is being prepared for heaven benefit from these graces which I am obtaining.” The Lord looks lovingly on us as we selflessly surrender our graces to another in need.

How many indulgences can I obtain? There is no limit to the number of Paral Indulgences a person may obtain, but the Church limits the granng of Plenary Indulgences to one per person per day.

Sunday Sermon for March 29, 2020, the Fi h Sunday of Lent, Year A - by Fr. Robert Aler Readings: Ez 37:12-14; Rom 8:8-11; Jn 11:1-45

In the second reading St. Paul makes the disncon between those who are in the flesh and those who are in the Spirit. By this he is not speaking of those who are alive in the body as opposed to those who are in Purgatory or in Heaven. Rather, the disncon is between those whose focus is on the things of the flesh (worldliness, materialism, sensuality, etc.) and are, thereby, giving themselves over to occasions of sin as contrasted with those who are striving to live a deeper spiritual life and have sought to remove sin from their lives.

St. Paul says that if Christ is in us, meaning if we are in the state of grace, then the body is dead because of sin while the spirit is alive because of righteousness. Elsewhere St. Paul talks about pung to death the desires of the flesh, so when he speaks of the body being dead, he is talking about the fact that we put to death our sinful desires. This has been a struggle for human beings from the beginning, but with the internet and social media, it has become a far more difficult problem for many people in our day.

In order to put to death these sinful desires that rise up within us, we have to be aware of the way the devil works to tempt us. While some of the desires are natural and, of themselves not sinful, they can become sinful if they are sought for a purpose other than what God intended. In the desires that become temptaons to sin, the devil’s usual strategy is to make us look only at the immediate gain. The pleasure or perceived good we think we can obtain is placed before us. Since most of us grew up in the “immediate graficaon” culture, it can be very difficult to resist and reject these temptaons.

The vile creature tries to tell us that this thing, whatever it is, will be good for us. For the moment, while a person is acng on the temptaon, it may even appear to be good because it provides the graficaon we were seeking. However, most of us have fallen enough mes to these temptaons to know that while we may obtain a momentary pleasure, it does not take long for the empness to set in. The fact that we know the acon is wrong and, therefore, harmful to our souls, should be enough to keep us from giving into the temptaon, especially if we remember the empness we know we will experience and that we have fallen into sin.

Learning to look beyond the immediate is crical, not only for overcoming sin and pung to death the desires of the flesh, but for living a truly spiritual life. Anyone who has waded deeply into the spiritual life knows it is definitely not about immediate graficaon. In fact, because God is trying to help us put to death anything that is not of Himself, there is o en dryness and struggle. The goal of the spiritual life is not to seek graficaon for ourselves, but to learn to love God with our whole heart and soul and strength.

This love for God and the growing union with God that happens in prayer will bring about the righteousness by which our spirit is alive. Our spirit is alive because of the Holy Spirit Who dwells within and animates us with His divine life. Since this life is the life of God, or sancfying grace, it moves us to conform our lives more perfectly to His. At the same me, as we die to our selfish desires, our sole desire is loving God and seeking to be with Him. This is the promise God made to the Jewish people through the Prophet Ezekiel when He revealed the resurrecon. Our ulmate call and purpose is Heaven, not earth; it is supernatural life, not merely natural life.

When Lazarus had been in the tomb for four days, Jesus told Martha that her brother would rise again. Martha professed her faith in the resurrecon, but Jesus encouraged her faith by saying: “I am the resurrecon and the life.” When He asked Martha if she believed this, she responded by making an act of faith in the divinity of Christ by saying: “I have come to believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, the One Who is to come into the world.” If you and I can make this same act of faith in the Person of Jesus, then we need to choose Him Who is our life. This means coming out of the tomb of our sinfulness and living for Jesus now, believing in His promise that we will share in the glory of His resurrecon and life forever.

SAINT OF THE DAY - SAINTS AND These two saints lived in the sixth century. Gwynllyw was a chie ain of south-east Wales. He is said to have kidnapped Gwladys, one of the children of of Brecknock, and made her his wife. was their first child. He was bapzed by Saint Tatheus, to whom he had been entrusted for his educaon, and became a monk and a much-travelled founder of monasteries. Cadoc was instrumental in his parents’ conversion and succeeded in convincing them to leave a worldly life. The couple then led an austere life close to each other on what is now at Newport in Monmouthshire, where the ancient Saint Woolo’s church—“Woolo” being derived from “Gwynllyw”—sll stands. However, Cadoc urged them to separate altogether, so Gwladys went to Pencarnau in , where a Catholic church is dedicated to her. They both lived in solitude unl they died. Saints Gwynllyw and Gwladys, pray for us!
