Dear People of St. Patrick Parish,
The second reading today, from St. Paul to Timothy, has special
meaning to all of us. He tells the early Christians that they need to study, reflect and put into practice what is found in the Bible.
“All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for refutation [shown to be false or erroneous] for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that one who belongs to God may be competent, equipped for every good work.”
Jesus in the Gospel of Luke today, tells us, “But when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?” Yes, we will all have to show Jesus at that time that we did have Faith in God and His ways, and we tried our best to live that Faith each day.
Here at St. Patrick Parish, every week I explain and share a fuller meaning of the Mass readings for the coming Sunday. One hour a week is all that is required to come, learn, think about what we have learned and better understand the readings as we hear or read them at Mass on the next Sunday.
It is my hope and prayer that more people will take advantage of this class to grow in their Faith and have the tools to help us all get to Heaven.
As we learn about the unfair judge in the Gospel today, who did not take care of the widows need, we think about what is happening in the world today.
Those in charge who do not treat all people fairly and justly. We cannot accept people in charge treating the widow, the orphans and yes, migrants, unfairly, by putting their judgements on making more money for themselves and not for the poor.
Jesus tells us to be persistent in our prayers to God and in dealing with those who should love and care for those in need. Unjust billions taken from the poor will not get us into heaven.
God Bless,
Fr. Larry Young
Your Pastor
