DIVINE MERCY- Oh, how painful it is to Me that souls so seldom unite themselves to Me in Holy Com-munion. I wait for souls, and they are indifferent to-
ward Me. I love them tenderly and sincerely, and they distrust Me. I want to lavish My graces on them, and they do not want to accept them. They treat Me as a dead object, whereas My Heart is full of love and mercy (Diary, 1447). PROMISES Today’s liturgy is full of promises. The reading from Genesis promises a final triumph over the power of sin and a return to a new creation. The reading from Second Corinthians promises that all who follow Christ will have to struggle. It also promises, how-ever, that we can persevere if we but recognize that Christ is within us, renewing us daily, and giving us the courage and the strength we need to endure. The Gospel promises that doing God’s will makes us “family” with Jesus, who forgives all sin and triumphs over evil. Today might be a good day for us to make some promises as well. We can promise to stop kidding ourselves about our own tendencies to selfishness and sin. We can promise ourselves to believe—really believe—that while we are not sinless, we are forgiven. We can promise ourselves to combat evil and sin by acting as sisters and brothers not only to the Lord, but to one an-other as well. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc. TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION The cathedral is a treasure in a diocese and in our tradition. It is not simply a “big church,” as some say; some parish churches are larger. What makes a cathedral is the presence of the chair, called a cathedra (Latin for seat) reserved for the bishop. There are many instances in our country of a local church (diocese) outgrowing a cathedral. In Baltimore and St. Louis, the former cathedrals are historic treasures in the heart of the old city, but new and larger structures now function as the seat of the bishop. When a bishop dies or retires, it is said that “the seat is vacant,” and when the new bishop is installed, the central ritual is the moment when the decree of the Holy Father is read and the new bishop is escorted to the cathedra. No one but the bishop sits in the cathedra during a ritual, but in Los Angeles the cathedra in the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels is accessible, and no one seems to mind when a visitor tries the cathedra out for the bish-op’s point of view.—Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. ACTIONS-Actions speak louder than words; let your words teach and your actions speak. —St. Anthony of Padua AMERICAN FLAG—This flag, which we honor and under which we serve, is the emblem of our unity, our power, our thought and purpose as a nation. It has no other character than that which we give it from generation to generation. —Woodrow Wilson GOD’S PRESENCE - Realize above all that you are in God’s presence . . . empty yourself completely and sit waiting, content with the grace of God, like a chick who tastes nothing and eats nothing but what its mother gives it. —St. Romuald

SOCIAL CONCERNS
GOING ON VACATION -Before leaving for your vacation, visit the website www.parishesonline.com, or call 410-676-6000, to find a church and Mass times near where you’ll be staying. www.masstimes.org. DID YOU KNOW!! Can we eat meat on Fridays? The definition of abstinence is the avoidance of particular foods and the most common form of abstinence is not eating meat. Before Vatican II, Catholics were required to abstain from meat every Friday as a form of penance in honor of the death of Jesus Christ on the Cross on Good Friday. Many Catholics don’t realize that the Church still recommends abstinence on all Fridays of the year, not just during Lent. In fact, if we don’t abstain from meat on non-Lenten Fridays, we’re required to perform a corporal work of mercy. The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches that some form of pen-ance be performed and that could be a corporal work of mercy which are: to feed the hungry, to give drink to the thirsty, to clothe the naked, to shelter the homeless, to visit the sick, to visit the imprisoned and to bury the dead. By fulfilling these works of mercy we are reminded that we are our brother’s keeper. It is our duty and our obligation to love our neighbor through acts of charity and kindness. When we see a need in our neighbor, we are to strive to fill it. As an example, here at Holy Name, knitting or crocheting for the Prayer Shawl Ministry would be included as a corporal work of Mercy.
