2 LETTER FROM THE PASTORR This past week at our Parish Retreat we discussed the question, “Why do bad things happen to good people?” We sought an answer to the question by going back to the be- ginning, to the very beginning to our first parents, Adam and Eve. We know that God created the world in perfect harmony, everything was at peace and perfect. Into this perfect world, this Garden of Eden, this Kingdom of God, Heaven he created man and woman. His whole act of creation was centered on making a perfect place for man and woman to come to know and love God and to be loved by God. Everything in the Gar- den was for the good of man and woman and they were entrusted as care takers. There was only one tree from which they could not eat the fruit, the tree of Good and Evil. As we all know, there was a snake and a conversation and they ended up eating of the fruit of Good and Evil. This changed everything, they realized that they were naked and they hid themselves from God for they were ashamed. I have been asked many times and have wondered myself; Why did God plant the tree of Good and Evil? The old joke is that if God had told them not to eat the snake we may still be in the Gar- den. But back to why God planted the tree and the reason lies in the reason for creation. God created everything so that man and woman would have a place to know and love God and to be loved by God. If we are to love someone we must be free to choose. We cannot be forced to love someone, we can be made to fear and respect but not love. Love is a free choice and therefore man and woman had to have the freedom to choose to love God as well as the freedom to choose not to love God. This choice is an es- sential part of our creation in the image and likeness of God, for we know God chose to love us. Faced with the same choice, unfortunately we listened to the snake and thought of ourselves rather than of God. The consequences of that choice have reverberated through the years. Our action disrupted the harmo- ny, the peace, the perfection of creation. We could no longer live in the Kingdom of God because we chose to be equal with God rather than celebrate the creature relationship in which we were celebrated. God did not kick us out of the kingdom because he was mad or to punish us but rather because we were now broken and could no longer live in the perfection of God’s presence. So he prepared Adam and Eve by fashioning garments out of leather for them and settled them in a place outside of the Garden. A place that was not always in harmony or peace or perfection. A place where they would suffer not as punishment but rather because of the world they had chosen. A world where brother will kill brother, Cain and Abel. And do not be quick to blame Adam and Eve. If you were in their fig leaves do you be- lieve you would have chosen differently? And so back to our question; “Why do bad things happen to good people?” It is because we live in a bro- ken world because of sin, our sin, and in a broken sinful world bad things are going to happen to good people. Now let us look at this Sunday’s Gospel where a similar question is being asked of Jesus. The question is; “Why do bad things happen to good people, is it because they are not really that good but rather are sinful and are being punished by God for their sinfulness and is that why ‘really’ good people like us do not suffer the way that they have?” Jesus says, “By no means.” These bad events are the result of broken people doing broken things in a broken in world. But then he tells the parable of the fig tree not produc- ing fruit and the broken owner who simply wants to cut his losses and get rid of the tree. The good gar- dener, Jesus, speaks on behalf of the tree and asks for another chance, another season, taking on the re- sponsibility of fertilizing and working with the fig tree to bring forth good fruit. Just as God dressed Ad- am and Eve in garments of leather and settled them in place outside of the garden, there is not a loss of hope in creation. Jesus promises to work with us and the Father will forgive our sins and recommit to us more times than there are stars in the sky. So the question for us is not Why? But rather what fruit do we bear? We have the Father who forgives us and recommits to us more than the stars in the heavens, and eventually sends Jesus, his only Son to save us from ourselves and opens the way to the Kingdom of God and then sends the Holy Spirit to be our Comforter and Guide. What fruit do we bear? What in our life shows to others the overwhelming love of our God that is poured upon us?

Reflection Questions for the Readings for March 31, 2019

The psalmist tells us, “Look to (God) that you may be radiant with joy, and your faces may not blush with shame.” Where do you feel shame or guilt over past transgressions? How might you give these emotions to the Lord? St. Paul tells us we are entrusted with the “message of reconciliation.” How does your parish carry out the ministry of rec- onciliation within the wider community? Which figure in the parable of the Prodigal Son do you identify with the most at this point in your faith journey: the prodi- gal, the older son, or forgiving father? Why? At this halfway point in our Lenten journey, how have you been living the spiritual practices of prayer, fasting, and alms- giving? Is there anything you would like to do differently for the second half of Lent?

Tammy Sagez speaking on Alisha Perry’s Journey of Faith As a Chrisan, each day in an opportunity. When Rose ask me to walk the faith Journey with Alisha I gladly accepted knowing it would offer growth in my own relaonship with God and allow me to be His witness to Alisha offering such an opportunity. Like any journey, the road is never easy to predict. This journey has truly been rewarding. I have watched Alisha be aenve each week and grow in God’s love and gentle mercy. She is kind and humble and the light in her heart reflects the love of Christ. I know God will be her guide as she conn- ues her faith journey and bless her with an abundance of love and mercy no maer the path of the road. She has embraced the joys and love that are present in our weekly RCIA classes and I feel blessed to have shared her faith journey as it connues to grow in God’s love here at Holy Name.

Mary Israel speaking on Richard Israel’s Journey of Faith Hello, I am honored to present Richard Israel. Richard has a devotion to Chris- tian studies through literature, travels to Holy Sites and participating in other faiths activities. As a trained Stephen Minister leader, he has shown patience to teach, and sharing direction, By means of deeds, monetary donations, and a gentle listening ear, he is very generous. I have witnessed his increase in prayer and devotion privately, at Mass as well as singing with the Holy Name Choir.
