  • Reflections Volume 68
    1 Reflections Volume 68 International Catholic Family Newsletter AprilSept 2021 Are You Living‘ in the Flesh? The New Stigmata Saint of India Who Levitated The Silent Addiction to Technology The Real Easter Hallelujah Message Blessing to All: By: Richard Pickard “For those who live according to the flesh are concerned with the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the spirit with the things of the spirit.” (Romans 8:5) St. Paul was not talking about us acting as people created by God, but to those who have closed themselves to only matters of the flesh. He is talking about people who live only to satisfy their own desires. They care not for others, except for what others can do for them to satisfy their desires. In Philippians 1:21–24 we see a better example from St. Paul on the true meaning of Romans 8:5. “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. I am hard pressed between the two. My desire is to depart [that is, to die and leave behind the body] and be with Christ, for that is far better. But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account.” Paul wants to help others understand the eternal and joyful salvation that Christ has to offer. Our life on earth is a series of frustrations, pains, sicknesses, hardships, and mental anguish when we live without the Spirit of Christ within us.

All Catholics must guard against it in their hearts and work to dismantle the systems that perpetuate it. Priests throughout the Jefferson City diocese preached variations of that mes- sage the weekend of June 6-7, as part of their homilies for the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. “Any time we look at any person or group of people to be less than us because of the color of their skin, we are doing nothing more than following the Father of Lies and falling into the evil of racism,” Father Philip Niekamp, pastor of St. Pius X parish in Moberly, proclaimed from the pulpit. In a June 4 letter, Bishop W. Shawn McKnight urged the priests to read the U.S. Catholic bishops’ pastoral letter A man walks past an anti-racism mural by street artist Nath Murdoch in Peterborough, England, June 2, 2020.

These services include Mass and the sacraments, evangelization, religious educa- tion, and ministry training for priests, deacons, religious sisters, and laypeople. Today, more than 40% of U.S. dioceses are considered mis- sion dioceses. Although each diocese and eparchy has its own specific challenges, many mission dioceses share certain characteristics: • Catholics make up a small percentage of the population. • Difficult terrain, extreme weather, or great distances isolate parishes. • Priests, deacons, and skilled pastoral workers are in short supply.
