NINETEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME ST. DENIS 08-12-18 A Message from Our Pastor... that their ancestors ate manna in the deserted but they died, but the More murmuring and grumbling this week! this time from one of the bread that he will give them will provide them with life eternal. greatest prophets who just wants “out,” and from those who have been listening to Jesus’ claim that he is the bread come down from That is a powerful truth for us to accept and believe in today. How well heaven. Both God and Jesus hold fast to God’s plan, which remains do we do in this regard? Do we believe that we are called to receive good news for all. the bread of life? How do we respond when the Minister of the Eucharist says to us “The Body of Christ?” So many people, so many The prophet Elijah goes into the desert, not to pray or to recommit times just respond “Amen” under their breath or in a whisper tone. The himself to the service of the Lord, but in the hope that he will die. The Minister is basically left to read lips. We must respond with conviction office of prophet has become too heavy to bear. He sits under a broom and faith that little word “Amen” which expresses so much. It means tree, hoping to die. His prayer is not heard; his mission has not yet “so it is; I believe”. We have that expressed too in the Profession of been completed. Instead, an angel of the Lord brings him food and Faith after the homily. We no longer say “We believe…” but “I drink. Then in the strength of this mysterious food and water, he walks believe…” We need to express that at the time or receiving the forty days and forty nights, arriving at Horeb, the mountain of Eucharist. “I believe that this is indeed the “Body of Christ”. revelation. A story that begins in desperation ends with the prophet once again actively involved in God’s affairs. While the Gospel today speaks of the “Bread from Heaven”, we must remember that Jesus also shed his blood for us and at the last Supper The prophet Elijah became weary of life. His recent work had brought said, “This is my blood which is shed for you and for many…… take on the wrath of the infamous Queen Jezebel (for the story, read 1 this and drink”. Given that invitation we are expected to drink from the Kings 18:1 – 19:3), and she wanted his head. So Elijah goes out to the chalice at Mass, to partake of his blood. Yet many people totally ignore desert, asking God to let him die. But God still had work for him and the “Cup” as though it was not important. The document on the Sacred dispatched an angel with food, drink, and a message: “Get up, eat, Liturgy from the Second Vatican Council emphasizes the importance and move on. You’re not finished yet.” And Elijah found he had of receiving both. If you have not being receiving from the Cup, then enough strength to walk for forty days to meet God on Mount Horeb. this is the time to begin. All of which goes to prove that God is the One in charge.

Your enhance the status of one member of the exchange as it diminished response will be greatly appreciated and will bring hope to those the status of the other. In a clever turn of phrase, Jesus declares that places that need our help so desperately. We are already making only those drawn by God will be drawn to the one who was sent by plans for the coming year in the areas of Religious Education and God. If one does not come to him, it is probably a sign that person was Formation; Confirmation and Youth Ministry and RCIA. We need never called by God.

They think they know who Jesus is by reducing him to “the son of by your presence. I congratulate all those celebrating birthdays, Joseph.” But Jesus is making it clear who he is to those murmuring jubilees, anniversaries or quinceneras along with the recently married and to us who might murmur: the One sent by the Father, who will and newly baptized. I want to assure our families who have sons or raise us up on the last day, who has seen the Father and who is the daughters, brothers or sisters in the military here or oversees that we bread of life. remember them in prayer, asking God to protect and keep them from harm’s way.

ARCHBISHOP JOSE H. GOMEZ’ STATEMENT ON CHANGES TO THE CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH ON THE DEATH PENALTY

For some years now, I have expressed my concern that the death penalty is both cruel and unnecessary and I have called for its abolition. So, I welcome the changes to The Catechism of the Catholic Church on the death penalty and I am grateful for Pope Francis’ leadership in working for an end to judicial executions worldwide. The Catechism revisions announced today reflect an authentic development of the Church’s doctrine that started with St. John Paul II and has continued under emeritus Pope Benedict XVI and now Pope Francis. The Scriptures, along with saints and teachers in the Church’s tradition, justify the death penalty as a fitting punishment for those who commit evil or take another person’s life. And the Church has always recognized that governments and civil authorities have the right to carry out executions in order to protect their citizens’ lives and punish those guilty of the gravest crimes against human life and the stability of the social order. But in recent decades, there has been a growing consensus — among bishops’ conferences around the world and in the teachings of the Popes and the Catechism — that use of the death penalty can no longer be accepted. The Church has come to understand that from a practical standpoint, governments now have the ability to protect society and punish criminals without executing violent offenders. The Church now believes that the traditional purposes of punishment — defending society, deterring criminal acts, rehabilitating criminals and penalizing them for their actions — can be better achieved by nonviolent means. The Church’s continued prayer and reflection has also helped us to see the deeper demands of the Gospel’s teaching on human life and dignity. We understand now that all human life is sacred — even the lives of those who commit acts of great evil and depravity. And we have come to insist that authorities respect the dignity of even the most violent criminals and give them the chance to reform their lives and be reintegrated into society. Today’s revisions to the Catechism seem to me to reflect this growing consensus in the Church that capital punishment should be rejected. In his letter, Evangelium Vitae (“The Gospel of Life”), Pope John Paul II said the death penalty could be used only in cases “when it would not be possible otherwise to defend society.” But, he added, “as a result of steady improvements in the organization of the penal system, such cases are very rare, if not practically non-existent.” The revisions announced today are in line with that conclusion. The Catechism now says the death penalty is “inadmissible” — it should not be used — because it violates the dignity of the person and because “more effective systems of detention have been developed, which ensure the due protection of citizens but, at the same time, do not definitively deprive the guilty of the possibility of redemption.” The Catechism is not equating capital punishment with the evils of abortion and euthanasia. Those crimes involve the direct killing of innocent life and they are always gravely immoral. By definition, the lives of almost all those on death row are not “innocent.” But as St. John Paul II said: “Not even a murderer loses his personal dignity, and God himself pledges to guarantee this.” I respect that many good people will continue to believe that our society needs the death penalty to express its moral outrage and to punish those who commit the ultimate crime of taking human life. But I do not believe that public executions serve to advance that message in our secular society. We all need to consider how much violence has become an accepted part of American society and popular culture. There is not only the random violence we see every day in our communities. But we are also a society that permits our children to play video games that involve them “virtually” killing their enemies; much of our popular “entertainment” consists of movies and other programs that involve fictional characters committing heinous murders and other unspeakable acts. In this kind of society, executing criminals sends no moral signal. It is simply one more killing in a culture of death. The Church today is pointing us in a different direction. Showing mercy to those who do not “deserve” it, seeking redemption for persons who have committed evil, working for a society where every human life is considered sacred and protected — this is how we are called to follow Jesus Christ and proclaim his Gospel of life in these times and in this culture.
