If you aren’t able to join in by walking, maybe come and gather along the route and join in prayer. The procession will begin around noon. Men’s Prayer Walk: Friday, June 18, 5 p.m. We’ll gather in the main parking lot as before, and ride hay wagons out to walk part of the parish boundary. All ages and conditions are welcome; if you can’t walk, you can ride! We’ll walk and pray, then eat and build friendships. How to choose Godparents. A parishioner posed this question for me to answer here (with some details left out): “We are having difficulty choosing Godparents for our baby due ___. My siblings and in-laws are all practicing Catho- lics. My spouse has two siblings who bragged about how they only go to church on Christmas and Easter…we initially de- cided to choose Godparents from one side of the family, but we don’t want to have hard feelings with the other side. Any advice?” That’s a tough situation, faced by a LOT of people. Start by being very clear in your own mind about what a Godparent is. It is not merely an honorary title, but an important spiritual role in the life of the newly baptized. One way to approach this might be to re-frame the question to the sibling who is an inactive Catholic: “Dearest sibling: I am praying about one of the most important decisions I’m going to make for my newborn child, and I want your advice…” “Wait, you want my advice? I never go to church!” “Sure, you’re my sister/brother…” “What’s the question?” “I want to make sure that my newborn child will have really good spiritual role models in her life, people who will be able to explain to them what we believe, show her prayers like the Rosary and the Divine Mercy Chaplet, and be someone to talk to about faith questions. Who can you think of in our family who best fits that?” My guess is that inactive Catholics will have enough self-awareness not to nominate themselves, even as they ask, “Oh, is that what you expect from a Godparent? Wow…” Then they may either suggest someone who IS a serious Catholic or admit they don’t know who to suggest. And it may facilitate that sibling thinking about his or her own spiritual life a little more, and perhaps being ready to be a Godparent for baby number two. And when someone else asks, “Why did you choose who you chose,” this is your answer. I’m not saying it will prevent bad feelings – that may be impossible – but it gives a truthful and reasonable answer. Can you reasonably ask someone to model what he or she doesn’t believe? This, by the way, is why a Godparent must be a Catholic, as opposed to belonging to another faith. And while the Church allows a non-Catholic Christian to be a “Christian witness,” to be candid, this really is an honorary thing; the Christian wit- ness is not the same thing as a Godparent. What about air conditioning in the confessional? Good news: we’ve located a small-enough unit that can be mounted inside the confessional. This is less costly and will be more effective than trying to connect to the a/c that cools the rest of the church, given the cramped space available for the needed duct-work. The next step is running out- side electrical service to that part of the building. In the meantime, the only thing to do is keep the confessional door open and run a fan, so it’s cool before confessions start. —Father Fox [email protected] (937)526-3437 2 ST.
