The relational dynamics among the father, the older son, and the younger son have always spoken to me in different phases of my life. There were times in my life when I tried to run far away from God the Father’s plan and His love for me. There have been other times where I have been tempted with a sense of entitlement – viewing God’s love as something that I deserve and earn, rather than a free gift of His boundless mercy. And now, as a spiritual father, I have the opportunity to be the father for others, welcoming them back to the Father’s house after years of trying to wander away from him. I think most of us can relate to all three of these figures, but I would like to focus on the journey and conversion of the prodigal son for now. I can remember sitting in a philosophy class where the professor spoke about the difference between remorse and guilt. He basically said that guilt was never a good thing because it only leads us deeper into our own misery and sinfulness. This struck a chord within me, so I immediately objected: “You mean to tell me that this good old-fashioned Irish Catholic guilt that I was raised with is a bad thing?!” I almost took offense at this statement, mostly because I had felt that the Church had become too soft. Why is God’s mercy and love always talked about and emphasized more than His judgement and wrath, I thought. This particular conversation was a conversion for me. The professor went on to define his terms more clearly. Remorse, as he described it, is that sting of your conscience that you feel immediately after you do something sinful. This remorse is a gift of God’s Spirit, which allows us to know and to experience the error of our ways. However, this remorse does not cause us to fall more deeply into the misery and isolation of our own sinfulness. Rather, it compels us to examine our biting conscience, confess our weakness before God, and seek forgiveness. It is through this process of sinning and feeling remorse that we learn from our mistakes and resolve to atone for them and do better next the time we experience temptation. In fact, the very word “atonement” can be broken down to literally mean what it says: “At One - ment.” To learn from our mistakes and to atone for them means to be restored to fullness of health – to be holy or whole again. Our journey here on earth is about becoming One with the God who creates and redeems us, while the power of sin and evil seeks to separate, isolate, divide, and conquer our very being. Guilt and shame, my professor explained, is that dark, lingering cloud that follows you around long after you have sinned. It is this accusative voice that tells us: "You are not worthy of God’s mercy. No one can forgive what you have done. You deserve to be doomed to an existence of hell and isolation. Happiness and peace are an illusion. Give up the struggle and give into the temptation, because giving into your selfish desires is the only thing that will fill this void in your soul.” I can remember times when I have felt the burden of guilt and shame following me around for months, even years. When my heart longed for forgiveness, healing and reconciliation, my mind continued to be trapped inside the prison of accusation, fear, self-pity and self-loathing. When we linger in this self-consuming guilt, we do not seek God’s mercy and love, which is what He desperately desires to give us as His gift. God desires us to focus of all our energy on receiving his love, which causes us to hope again. The Evil One wants us to focus our energy on beating ourselves up, which in a sick and twisted way, is presented to us sometimes as atonement for our sins. This leads to despair and self-absorption. Ultimately, our affair with guilt and shame is a matter of pride, which we can trace right back to our original parents in the Garden of Eden. The Prodigal Son did not give in to his guilt, which would have kept him far away from his father’s house. Rather, he swallowed his pride and learned what it means to be a real man – to admit and accept our weakness and to get up and carry our cross again after we have fallen. To be a real woman or man does not mean perfection in this life. It means glorifying God’s strength that He chooses to manifest in and through our weakness. As your spiritual father, I hope and pray that God continues to lead you deeper into His love and mercy – time and time again. If you cannot love yourself at this moment because the dark cloud of shame and guilt has consumed your life, then love yourself because God loves you. Don’t beat up on those who God loves. - Fr.

Our APA Dollars at Work – Vocations Snapshot This week we will take a look at how APA helps the Office of Vocations When we think of the Office of Vocations, we often associate the responsibilities of the office with seminarian support. But the office is responsible for much more than that. In addition to seminarian support, the Office of Vocations plans and hosts a variety of events and programs to help raise awareness for and promote vocations in our diocese. Here are some events and programs that have grown our vocations to the priesthood from 12 in 1996, to averaging 30+ from 2013-2015: THANK YOU! Easter Flowers If you would like to help decorate the altar for Easter, a special memorialization for your loved ones will appear in the bulletin during the Easter Season. Easter Flowers envelopes are in the pews to place in the collection baskets. If you wish to have a loved one memorialized please provide your name and your loved one’s name to be memorialized.

Anima Via-Discernment - open group discussion and refreshments for 20+ participants every other month. St. Andrew Dinners – these dinners with Bishop, hosted 3 times per year, provide an opportunity for pastors to bring young men they feel may have a vocation to hear vocations stories, and ask questions in a relaxed setting. Bishop’s BBQ - each year in June, a BBQ is organized with the Bishop for a casual evening of fraternity, food and prayer. Vocation Promotion Workshop – this annual workshop teaches 100+ attendees (teachers, youth ministers, DRE’s and parish vocation teams) new ways to build awareness and promote vocations. Holy Hour for Vocations - sponsored in conjunction with the Serra Club every 4th Wednesday of the month at the Cathedral. Altar Server Appreciation Mass – held each spring at the Cathedral, this event draws altar servers from around the Diocese for a special recognition mass and reception. More than 1000+ attend each year. Focus 11 - 6th graders in our diocese are invited to a vocations rally held over 2 days every February. 900+ children take part in the program which includes music, keynote address, panel discussions and a “scavenger hunt” to learn more about religious orders, Serra Club, Knights of Columbus and Spirit FM.
