TODAY’S MESSAGE Dear St. Family, In our second reading this Sunday, St. Paul’s letter to Timothy (1 Timothy 6: 11-16) describes a path to holiness and living as a Christian. He challenges Timothy and all who aspire to live lives of Christian stewardship to “pursue righteousness, devotion, faith, love, patience, and gentleness.” He further advises the Christian faithful not to be overly concerned about the things of this world. In fact, as opposed to being self-centered, he challenges people to be God-centered – to view life through concern for others rather than self. That is the sin of the rich man Jesus describes in the Gospel from St. Luke. Jesus does not say he achieved his riches in the wrong way; He does not say that he harmed the poor man Lazarus. His sins were that he provided only for himself. Although he did nothing wrong to Lazarus, he suffered the sin of omission by not caring for him in any way. The same dilemma confronts each of us as we live our lives. Sometimes we feel as if we are doing right by doing no wrong. Discipleship, on the other hand, calls us to a deeper insight in life. It is a life of action, not a passive approach to living. Good and faithful followers of Jesus are always looking for the ways they can help others, the behavior that permits them to be Jesus to and for other people. The rich man pleads with the Lord to allow him to go back and tell his brothers the pitfalls of ignoring those around them, but it is too late. But for us, it is never too late for us. It is never too late to get involved in a ministry at our parish which reaches out to those in need. It is never too late to take action through our communities and society to have an impact on those who are poor, both in a real sense and in a spiritual sense. On a different note, I would like to thank everyone who took part in our parish festival last Sunday. Special thanks to those, who shared their time, resources and effort to not only make this event possible but also successful and worthwhile. You know who you are. I am truly grateful!

Blessings, Fr. Vincent
