I would like to think that most peo-

ple in the world would help some-

one who was suffering if they had

the chance. I guess my op&mism

starts to take a hit when I consider

that in some cases the cost will be

higher for that help than in others.

To help someone with a meal or

transport someone to a doctor is

one thing. To offer oneself com-

pletely, all of one's money or &me,

is quite another.

Of course, there have been famous

examples of this type of giving. The

recently canonized St. Teresa of

Kolkata comes to mind. But I per-

sonally know of others who have

given everything for another.

Friends who have adopted an older

child, gone to live as missionaries in

a far off land, or added on to their

house in order to care for an aging

parent are all examples to me of

those who answer the call without

coun&ng the cost.

I am not concerned with not being

able to follow the examples of

these stewardship heroes. What

concerns me is becoming too com-

fortable and not no&cing the Laza-

rus that may be in my midst. Living

a life of Everyday Stewardship

means not only answering the call

when it is obvious and when we

have the chance to truly do some-

thing amazing, but also when it is

less obvious and the need not as

easily no&ceable. Who doesn't

want to help the starving child they

see on a late night infomercial? But

the sad reality is that some&mes

there are children lying at our pro-

verbial door that fail to gain our

a$en&on.

So, I pray to see with the eyes of

Jesus. I ask that I may be ever more

mindful of those in need who cross

my path. I pray to see Jesus in

them. I pray to be Jesus to them. I

pray that I may answer the call.

CYCLE C SEPTEMBER 25, 2016

26th Sunday in Ordinary Time

"'My child, remember that you

received what was good during

your lifetime while Lazarus like-

wise received what was bad.'" To-

day's Gospel reading is Jesus' par-

able about a "rich man," whose

name we do not know, and a

"poor man," named Lazarus. The

story shows both men after death,

the rich man in torment, and Laza-

rus enjoying the comfort that he

was deprived of during his earthly

life.

It's important to understand that

this teaching does not imply that

having wealth leads to eternal

punishment. Rather, we look at

how the rich man USED his wealth

and see there the cause of the

problem. As Jesus says, this man

"dressed in purple garments and

fine linen and dined sumptuously

each day." Clearly, he had abun-

dant wealth and focused it all up-

on serving himself. To further the

accusation against him, all the

while "lying at his door was a poor

man ... who would gladly have

eaten his fill of the scraps that fell

from the rich man's table." But

the rich man paid Lazarus no

heed, and THIS is why he now suf-

fers. Because he would not deign

to "suffer" at all during his life by

sharing his linen clothing or feed-

ing his poor neighbor covered

with sores.

This selfishness became the rich

man's SELF-condemnation. He put

himself in torment because he

blatantly disobeyed God's law to

love his neighbor. This challenging

parable urges us to examine our

own behavior and ask how WE use

our wealth--whatever size our

bank account may be. Are we will-

ing to assist our neighbors in

need? Or do we walk by the poor,

excusing our own comfort? Let us

heed Christ's warning today that

such earthly comforts are, in the

long run, short-lived.

“Far too many Catholics are not familiar with the

basic content of Catholic social teaching. More fun-

damentally, many Catholics do not adequately un-

derstand that the social teaching of the Church is an

essen!al part of Catholic faith. This poses a serious

challenge for all Catholics, since it weakens our ca-

pacity to be a Church that is true to the demands of

the Gospel.” from USCCB.ORG

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM

US policy should promote reli-gious liberty vigorously, both at home and abroad: our first and most cherished freedom is rooted in the very dignity of the human person, a fundamental human right that knows no geographical boundaries. In all contexts, its basic contours are the same: it is the "immun[ity] from coercion on the part of individuals or of social groups and of any human power, in such wise that no one is to be forced to act in a manner contrary to his own beliefs, whether pri-vately or publicly, whether alone or in association with others, with-in due limits." (Dignitatis Hu-manae, no. 2). In the United States, religious freedom general-ly enjoys strong protection in our law and culture, but those protec-tions are now in doubt. For exam-ple, the longstanding tax exemp-tion of the Church has been ex-plicitly called into question at the highest levels of government, pre-cisely because of her teachings on marriage. Catholics have a particular duty to make sure that protections like these do not weaken but instead grow in strength. This is not only to se-cure the just freedom of the Church and the faithful here but also to offer hope and an encour-aging witness to those who suffer direct and even violent religious persecution in countries where

the protection is far weaker.
