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.

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.

They aren’t about budgets, spread- sheets or those ubiquitous Sunday en- velopes. They’re about ministry. “Specifically, they’re about maximiz- ing the ministry we can do with the re- sources we have,” stated Deacon Joseph Braddock, Chief Financial Officer for the Jefferson City diocese. The COVID-19 pandemic has tightened those resources, even as it has revealed new opportunities for charity and outreach. In that way, it has highlighted the im- portance of a Christian ethic of return- ing to God a portion of His generosity. “As Christian stewards, we receive God’s gifts gratefully, cultivate them responsibly, share them lovingly in jus- tice with others, and return them with increase to the Lord,” Bishop W. Shawn McKnight explained. That return includes a financial tithe. Parishes receive most of their mon- ey from Sunday offertory collections, which go toward carrying-out essential ministries, including Catholic schools, U.S. dollars are seen with face masks during the coronavirus pandemic in this illustration photo.
