Thirty-first Sunday in Ordinary Time
Statues And Commandments
In the Book of Deuteronomy we are given civil laws and religious laws. Specifically, today we hear about laws that help us to love
God and show us how to live as God's people. The word "fear" in this
context does not mean being afraid, but is used in the sense of obedient
children deferring to a loving parent. Jesus came to help lead us to God.
Like a priest, he mediates between God and the human race. In Mark's
Gospel today, it is in this character that Jesus clarifies God's laws of
living.
In an effort to know what was really important to Jesus, a scribe
asked him what was the greatest law. Jesus responded with the words of
Deuteronomy, teaching that it was most important to love God. But he
quickly added the second most important law: to love our neighbors as
much as we love ourselves. Jesus told the scribe that if he understood
and lived the words he had just heard, he was close to the Kingdom of
God.
Love Your Neighbor
Jesus wasn't very specific about who our neighbors were, but he
probably did not confine his definition to just the person next door. In
order to show our love for God, we must first show that love in the way
we take care of our neighbors, especially those in vulnerable situations.
It is good that we call ourselves Christians because we diligently
obey God's commandments, attend church regularly, and live moral
lives. But deep down in our hearts, we know we need to do more. If we
look at how Jesus loved his neighbors, how he took time to listen to
them, care for them, and heal them in their brokenness, then we see
how we are to love one another. Our actions today need to be modeled
on those of Jesus.
Today's Readings: Deuteronomy 6:2-6; Psalm 18:2-4, 47, 51; Hebrews
7:23-28; Mark 12:28b-34

Please Pray For
Do We Think That We Change God’s Mind?
What do we think we’re doing when a we kneel down at the child’s
bedside and say together, “God bless grandma and grandpa” and “God
help Uncle Harry find a job”? Or what is the point of our reader or
singer coming forward each Sunday and asking the assembly to pray
for this, that and the other thing?
There are lots of valid ways to think about praying for someone or
something. One beginning point is the psalms. What strikes me if I recite these ancient Jewish prayers that became the core of the Christian
prayer book is this: The person who wrote these prayers was never
hesitant to point out to God the urgent concerns of the day. Never. The
psalms are full of: Please do this. Do that! Do it now!
And for centuries the churches hardly ever gathered without a time
for naming the needs of that day. Mornings, evenings, Sundays. Always the Christians rolled out their list of urgent concerns: peace,
health, good weather, strength in the face of hardship, the poor.
This kind of praying was thought of as something a baptized person
had to do. It was, in fact, something the unbaptized catechumens were
not allowed to do. They couldn’t do Eucharist, they couldn’t give the
peace greeting, and they had to be sent out before the baptized people
did those intercession prayers. It was that important.
But what did they think they were doing? Probably one thing was
this: They thought that the church was here to shout in God’s ear on
behalf of all the helpless people, on behalf of the earth itself, on behalf
of the living and the dead. Jesus had prayed and now the body of
Christ would pray. I don’t think ordinary Christians got too wrapped
up in questions of what it meant. They just did it. Somebody had to
keep reminding God (that’s not such a strange way to think: just check
out the psalms) that all was not well. Remember us, remember the
poor, remember the prisoners.
No one ever said: It isn’t working, folks, let’s quit. We pray and
pray and there are still poor people, still sick people, still all kinds of
evil. But interceding was what Christians did—like living thankfully,
like sharing with those in need. The baptized were trained in this kind
of praying.
So are we. In our parish book of prayer, in our book of the names of
the dead, with our children at bedside each night, with the sick when
we visit them, by ourselves—and here in our liturgy every Sunday
week after week. Year after year, can we get louder? Put more of our
heart and soul in these prayers?

Around St. Al’s
Next week is the last
week of the first quarter.
It’s always so hard to beSt. Al's
St. Pat's
lieve how quickly the first
quarter goes—and how
slowly the third quarter
moves along, even though
they are relatively the
same amount of days. I
guess it’s all in perception.
Perception is always interesting. There is a saying that perception is reality—but it really isn’t. Reality is truth. For example, it is the unchanging fact
that God exists and works in our lives. A person's
perception of that can be very different. It is often
colored by discussions with others, the media, preconceptions, etc. Until a person actually experiences
the truth of God’s hand, their perception is unchanging—and often unreal.
How do we change perception, especially in kids?
They often have a perception of themselves as unable to learn math, for example, or of being unpopular, or of being misunderstood, even though that isn’t
reality at all. Their perceptions may be colored by
what they see in magazines, what others kids say,
what is portrayed in TV shows, or a myriad of other
things.
We need to help them see reality, something they
have actually experienced for themselves. We can
help them sort out what is real by helping them to
realize that even adults are influenced by perception.
Watch a political commercial with them, (especially
these days!) and point out how that commercial is
skewed to support one viewpoint. Help them to look
at ads and notice how they can give false impressions. Help them to see that things are not so just
because they are talked about, or even published.
Our kids will be assailed by far more than we were.
They need to be enlightened seekers of truth.

The Y.A.C.H.T. Club
Please join the I&M Canal Y.A.C.H.T. Club as we
welcome Paul Jarzembowski on Tuesday, November
14th at White Fence Farm in Lemont. We will meet
around 7:00 pm, speaker and dinner at 7:30 pm and
discussion at 8:30 pm. Paul's topic is "Finding God
in the Movies.” God is still speaking to us. In the media and entertainment-filled world today with wallto-wall news, movies, music, TiVo, and more, we
often wonder if we can still hear the voice of God.
Instead of condemning Hollywood, this presentation
will help us unpack the gospel messages imbedded in
pop culture today, and how we can use movies and
television to discover and experience the divine in
our world.
The cost is $5 for admission plus whatever you
order off of the menu.
We will again have a trivia question in which one
lucky person will win free admission to the
Y.A.C.H.T. Club in December!
Paul Jarzembowski is the Director of Young
Adult Ministry for the Diocese of Joliet and also
serves as the Acting Executive Director for the National Catholic Young Adult Ministry Association
(NCYAMA). Paul currently lives in Island Lake,
Illinois, with his wife Sarah.

Treasures From Our Tradition
Eastern Christians developed very
different traditions for confessing sin. They
see the priest as a witness to God's action, a
physician, if you will, rather than a judge. A
person confesses sin to God while standing in
front of an icon of Jesus, face to face. Without a grill, in the full light of day, near a table
with an open Gospel book, the penitent asks
the Lord for mercy. A priest standing to the
side might offer counsel and confirm God's
gift of forgiveness. Rather than list sins and
offenses, an Eastern Christian is more likely to speak of a disposition of
heart toward God and neighbor, and the desire to forgive those who
have wronged them.
Remarkably, although only a priest can pronounce the prayers
of forgiveness, lay people, including married men and women, single
Christians, monks, and nuns, may witness the confession. This is akin
to the ancient Celtic practice of a "soul friend" as a spiritual mentor.
Bishops may bless anyone with sufficient theological knowledge and
discretion to do this. Eastern Catholics in the United States have largely
drifted away from this tradition and toward Latin Rite customs such as
confessional screens, set formulas and prayers, and penances. Today, in
the interest of preserving the authentic tradition of the Eastern Church,
there is a move to restore the older form.
