Admonish, Instruct, Counsel
The Way
of Faith
People often admit to me that they find it very
hard to speak to others about their Christian faith.
One’s faith is something intensely personal, and not
the kind of thing that one necessarily wants to talk about in the grocery line
or by the water cooler. On top of our natural reticence, we live in a society in
which people are often threatened by even the mention of religion, or become angry at the suggestion that one way of life or one understanding of
God is any better than any other. None of this bodes well for an easy time
proclaiming the love of God in a world that desperately needs to experience
that love—which Christ calls us constantly to do.
So the three spiritual works of mercy that we explore this week will
make us particularly uncomfortable: admonishing the sinner, instructing the
ignorant, and counseling the doubtful. “Who am I,” we think, “to admonish
anyone about anything, to instruct, to counsel?” But then we remember
that these are works of mercy. We are showing the love of God, the mercy
of God in doing these things. “Mercy” is the word we use to describe God’s
constant desire to forgive, rather than to punish. He expects true contrition
of the sinner—that is, an honest and heartfelt recognition of the sins we
have committed, and a genuine desire to “sin no more and avoid whatever
leads to sin.” When those are present, then he freely forgives; he freely
shows the mercy that makes us whole.
Therefore, receiving that merciful forgiveness involves being aware of
the sins one has committed, being convicted of them, and seeking pardon.
Who among us does not need occasionally to be faced with the sin we have
committed in order to admit it, or to be taught that something we are doing
is sinful, or encouraged that no matter what our situation, God’s love is
freely given? These three works of spiritual mercy thus become beautiful
means that open a person to contrition, to freely desire forgiveness, and,
having been forgiven, to live more fully in the love of Jesus. As hard as it is
to do, by admonishing, instructing, and counseling, we become means of
grace for others.
But at the same time, the way we offer these works of mercy matters
very much. There can be nothing arrogant or prideful in our approach.
When Jesus tells us to look at the plank in our own eye before we look at the
speck in our neighbor’s eye, he is not telling us to ignore the sins of others.
He is telling us to be aware of our own need for mercy first, that our own
sins and humble contrition should be our first concern. Then, in the proper
and genuine spirit of humility, we are able to gently and lovingly approach
those God draws us to, and offer them the joy of Christ by encouraging them
to do what is necessary for forgiveness, for receiving the joyful mercy of
God. When we act with profound humility, the Lord does amazing things in
the lives of others.

RCIA The next session for RCIA will meet
on Tuesday, February 23rd. Newcomers
are always welcome! This weekend two
important Rites are celebrated. For our
unbaptized catechumens, The Rite of
Election was celebrated at the Cathedral. Our “Elect” travelled to Richmond to meet with Bishop DiLorenzo. He
signed the Parish Book of the Elect containing their signatures and enrolled them in the order of the Elect of the
Catholic Church. Sunday at the 8 am Mass our baptized candidates celebrated The Rite of Calling the candidates to Continuing Conversion. This rite is celebrated with the adults
who wish to complete their Christian initiation through the
sacraments of Confirmation and Eucharist or who wish to be
received into the full communion of the Catholic Church. In
both of these Rites, our catechumens and candidates seek
the support of our community’s prayer and example as they
continue their RCIA journey.

CRS RICE BOWL Community Reflections
On Care For Our Common Home
Read: “New biological technologies” (Laudato Si, sec. 130-132)

SEEING SOLIDARITY
As Pope Francis notes, sometimes human intervention in the
environment can be a good, and necessary, thing. In
Madagascar, countless farming communities lost their entire
crop in 2013 in the wake of Cyclone Haruna. These
hardworking farmers just needed a little help getting back on
their feet. The CRS seed fair is helping them do just that.
Farmers receive agriculture vouchers to purchase seeds, tools
and livestock, and vendors benefit from a safe, structured
venue where they can sell their goods.
Visit crsricebowl.org/university to learn more.
ACTIVITY: Traveling Food
In the United States, food often travels between 1,500 & 2,000
miles from farm to table. That means a ton of fuel is burned
transporting it, not to mention the energy it takes to preserve it.
Pope Francis invites us to consider the “human interventions”
that affect our environment.
Try it. List the food & drinks you’ve consumed today and try
to map them back to their source. Be realistic, how many
“human interventions” did it take to get from farm to plate to
your stomach?
•
•
PROCESS: Questions to ponder
In the excerpt from Laudato Si, does Pope Francis raise
any issues that strike a particular cord with you? How can
you respond to the pope’s invitation to care for creation?
Think about your own food consumption habits. Are
there any that are particularly helpful to the environment?
Or any that seem harmful?
PRAYER: Water That is Holy
God of the earth, of the soil and of the dirt.
God of all things that grow, and sprout and bloom
We see you in those good things you have made; we seek you
in all creation. May we learn ways to cultivate food that both
nourishes our bodies and our planet. May we never take for
granted the sustenance that comes forth from that soil that
enables us to continue your good work. May we take for our
own the words of Ecclesiastes: One who pays heed to the
wind will never sow, and one who watches the clouds will
never reap. (11:4) May we be moved to act, to watch our hunger for nourishment with a hunger for justice, both for our
brothers and sister and for our planet. Amen.
FASTING CHALLENGE: Eat Locally
How intentional are you about where your food comes from?
How informed are you about the impact such decisions have
both locally & globally? Challenge yourself to answer these
questions this week.
Place some money in your rice bowl in solidarity.
Inclusive Ministries
SPRED (Special Religious Development)
Adults with developmental disabilities are invited to participate in our SPRED community at OLMC. SPRED is specifically
designed to meet the spiritual needs of persons with developmental or cognitive challenges, and involves a special one
on one relationship with a catechist.
The community of faith also provides a framework via which
participants can celebrate the sacraments, and enter into the
worshipping experiences of the whole church. For more information or to inquire about SPRED groups for children,
please contact parish chairperson Miki at 596.7172
Healing Ministry
New: OLMC Prayer Chain (Cadena de Oración)
A new ministry begins at OLMC! This will offer an opportunity for those who wish to pray for the needs of others and a
place for you to request prayers.
Here’s how it works:
Will you be one of our prayer warriors? If so, contact the
prayer coordinator at [email protected]. Please leave
your name, phone number and email address on the message. Sandra will contact you.
Do you have a prayer request? Leave you prayer request at
[email protected]. This will be monitored daily and all
requests will be forwarded to our prayer warriors.
This is available in English and Spanish. (Está disponible en
inglés y español.)
DID YOU KNOW? There is a website – mealtrain.com – that
we can use to set up a schedule to bring meals to parishioners who are sick or homebound for whatever reason. It allows friends, relatives, or fellow parishioners to step up and
help in whatever way necessary – in this case, bringing a
meal for those who perhaps do not qualify for Meals on
Wheels, or whose caregiver needs help. Are you that parishioner, or do you know of a parishioner, who could use us? In
this Year of Mercy, could you accept our help – a meal once a
week, perhaps? If you could use this service, please contact
Rolande Phillips, 240-7400.
