Baptism of the Lord
St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church Temperance, Michigan
Dear Brothers and Sisters in the Lord,
The great feast of the Epiphany—the realization, the appearance, or the manifestation of the Lord is the source of our joy during this sacred season. As the prophet Isaiah had foretold, the light of the world has shined into the darkness and those veiled in the darkness have seen this great light. Liturgically and in pious practice, the western Church has associated this feast with the visitation of the Magi to the young Messiah. Magi, men of a mysterious and esoteric origin, people of gentile origin without any historic or ethnic claim to the revelation and salvation of God, traveled from the distant “East” to witness this light. The gentiles have come to adore the Messiah of humanity, and symbolically they present the fulfillment of the prophecy. In these mysterious figures, we see the totality of the nations being given a glimpse at the new born king who will be for all people “the Way, the Truth, and the Life.” But what say we of those who were not given the insight of the Magi? What of the legions of humanity that did not see the star that rose in the sky announcing the promised king? Moreover, what of those who saw the star and decided not to pursue the path? These are questions without easy answers. Such concerns can become haunting when they are taken out of the realm of historical speculation and become all too real and present in our family lives. Such stories have become sadly common: “Father, I raised my three boys in the faith. I sent them to Catholic school. Now all of them have left the faith.” “Father, my daughter came back from college and now she refuses to go to church with us.” “Father, we did everything we were supposed to do, and now they tell us that they don’t plan to have our grandchildren baptized.” There is no greater tragedy then when one who has seen the light turns their back on the source of light. I truly believe that such a loss is sufficient to bring the angels to tears. There has developed a common theory among some clergy that our role in such circumstance is to bring comfort. That we should speak of mercy and assure people that their love and concern for their family pales in comparison to the love of the Almighty for such misguided souls. All of this is true…until we come to the ‘therefore’. “Therefore, you need not worry. Your loved ones are following their perception of right and wrong and are fine.” Since truth and love are inseparable, I’m afraid I cannot offer such empty and deceptive consolation. Dare we hope in the mercy of God in such situations? Of course we do. We are never called to despair for the eternal destiny of others. Nevertheless, to surrender our loved ones into a state of irreligion, or find contentment in their lapsed faith is never a loving act. Yet, we also know the pain and discord that often comes when we attempt to call our loved ones back to the faith. I have often reflected upon the fact that I have never met the person who was argued into the faith. So then what path is left to us? I would begin with a simple suggestion: do not argue. I know this is asking a lot. However, we will fail to provoke any real soul searching if we drive people into defensive postures. That being said, we should also never give the impression that we are comfortable with their lack of faithfulness. We should be willing to discuss their perspectives and this does require us to listen to them and ask questions. I have found that the vast majority of people who disengage from their faith do not do so from any intellectual difficulty. Yes, they justify and defend such decisions with tactics of intellectual objections, but the problem is almost always a moral struggle. We will never be able to overcome such an obstacle with logic and rational arguments. Second: I would be sure that, whatever might come out of any such conversation, we ought to leave the exchange expressing our love for them (both to them and to ourselves). The love of Christ is not effectively spread by force or compulsion, and we must never leave the impression that our love is contingent upon their acceptance of belief. We are called to embrace and love the sinner, yet never to have an acceptance of sin.
Third: realizing that without the grace of God the transformation of the heart is impossible; we are called to engage in spiritual combat for our loved ones. What does this look like? Well, it can take various forms. We ought to ask the Holy Spirit to guide us in our conversations with these wayward souls (even as the conversation is taking place) begging that we might become instruments of His grace. We ought to commit ourselves to regular devotional practices for the return of our loved ones to the faith, a daily rosary, the chaplet of Divine Mercy, a weekly period of prayer before our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, perhaps attending a weekday Mass once or twice a week for this intention. Making use of sacramentals is also a powerful way of obtaining the graces of conversion of heart (I hear wonderful stories about the ‘Green Scapular’). Also, we should not forget the power of personal sacrifice. Committing ourselves to offering a light fast on Fridays is an excellent practice as well as offering the sacrifice of some legitimate pleasure such as electronic entertainment or sugar. Regardless of the method we choose, we must realize that we are struggling against powerful and dark forces and that we are fighting for the souls of our loved ones. This realization should bring us to seek our own sanctification even more diligently. The more we draw close to our blessed Lord the more effective we become as an instrument of His grace. Finally, I must encourage you to patience. We all wish to see grace in action. We all have a desire to see the fruits of our efforts ripen before us. The Almighty, however, is far more aware of the nature of the human heart and when grace will be the most effective. Are we able to find contentment in the providence of God even if this means that we may not be blessed to see the workings of grace with our human eyes? Will we be satisfied if our loved ones come to faith only in the final days of their earthly lives? If such circumstances unite us with them in eternity, then I believe that we will find this reality to be more than sufficient. Keep close to your heart that we are not alone in this struggle, our Lord and our Lady are with us and in this we can have confidence. “This is good and pleasing to God our Savior, who wills everyone to be saved and come to knowledge of the truth” (1 Tim. 2:3). He does not give up on His beloved children and neither should we. However, we must also realize, in humility, that we can only cooperate with the grace of the Spirit in such circumstances. We cannot elevate the star above to point out the way to our loved ones. Nor are we capable of forcing them to see the light that beckons them to return to faith and piety. What we can do is devote ourselves to becoming a witness of the light, always willing to engage the darkness that threatens our loved ones. We can become spiritual warriors who stand ready to offer our prayers, our sacrifices, our fears, and our sufferings upon the altar of our hearts. We can assault the kingdom of Heaven with love for the salvation of those dear to us. God love you, Fr. Slaton

Dedicated to keeping you informed on the activities of the Fr. John A. Kenna Knights of Columbus Council 11430
Happy New Year to you all! As we conclude the celebration of our Lord’s birth at Christmas-time I hope that
we too experienced a new birth in our relationship with Him. Unlike many of our New Year resolutions which
get tossed aside, we need to persevere in our efforts to keep us on the path to the Lord. As I get older, that
becomes the most important focus in my life. Perhaps it is the realization of our mortality that brings that into
view. Am sure that plays a major role. In reality, that should always be the primary focus of our life. For some
of us, like myself, it just takes a little longer to realize it.
Thanks for coming to our December Breakfast Buffet. A total of 142 folks enjoyed the fare. Quite a
few of those attendees were able to visit with our special guest to share their Christmas wishes. Thanks to
Kirk Shade for arranging for our special visitor. We will continue to extend the serving hours until noon for
another month to accommodate those folks attending the 10 AM Mass. If that proves not to be necessary, we will
cut back to 11:30 but for now, we will be there till noon. We look forward to seeing you all at the January
Breakfast Buffet.
We are celebrating our annual Appreciation Dinner this Saturday evening with our K of C family in
Padua Hall. This is our way of thanking our family for supporting us in our various activities.
Unfortunately for Fr. Slaton, he arrived about 10 minutes too late to claim his winnings at the January
meeting’s Attendance Game.
If you have been considering becoming a fellow Knight, this is the best time to do it. We only ask for the time
that you can give so don’t think that we will force you into more than you can spare. It is a good group of guys!!
Don’t forget to check out the kiosk in the Narthex. The booklets are all free. Why not join with your brother
Knights at this upcoming meeting? We are now meeting at 7:00 PM every first Wednesday of each month.

All We Own by Joe Sixpack
I must admit, like most Americans I've been living most of my life on the materialistic side. There's nothing wrong with possessing “things” or having lots of money. In fact, I've been rich and now I'm poor, but I know which one I prefer. (HINT: It ain’t the latter.) After all, if we didn’t have fruits from our labors, there would be no way the Church could acquire what she needs to fulfill the mission given her by her Founder. Somebody has to pay the electric bill, among other things. But materialism is sort of like emotions; both will lie to you every time. When we rely on and trust in our emotions more than relying on and trusting objective realities (and God is the Great Reality), we end up devastatingly disappointed, and often times we get ourselves into trouble. Likewise, when we place trust, dependence and pride in the material things our labors have provided, we end up buying into a great big lie that causes us to fail to put God first—and rest assured that God must be first in our lives, or we’ll pay for it in the next life. Chances are that I don’t know you, but that doesn’t mean I can’t tell you a little bit about yourself. What I can tell you about yourself is, after all, just human nature, and I understand human nature. Contrary to the opinion of some, I am a human, so I can relate to human nature. What I can tell you about yourself—whether you’re a top 2% earner or living in abject poverty— is that you possess something material you wouldn’t dream of departing with. Maybe it’s a book, or a family heirloom, or a certain car, or a piece of jewelry, or a… You get the picture. You probably also dream of owning a certain thing(s) or having a set sum of money. There's nothing wrong with that under normal circumstances. It just means you’re human. And you’ve been given that ability to enjoy your possessions or dream about having other things from God. It’s His way of “wiring” us to think about the great things in store for us that Jesus promised us in the next life. But where we go awry is when “things” or money begin to be valued by us more than a relationship to our Creator. I’m merely speculating, mind you, as I can’t read what’s in anyone’s heart, but I suspect a relationship to God is way down the list of priorities for many more people than we care to admit. While I can’t read hearts, actions and words and attitudes are pretty good yardsticks to measure where hearts are at. Are you one of those folks who receive Communion then dart out the door before Father even finishes putting the sacred vessels away? Maybe you grumble about having to get ready for Sunday Mass. How many times have you skipped out on Mass altogether to do something else © Sixpack Productions #122
or go somewhere? Do you attend Mass when you’re traveling? Of the 128 hours in your week, how many of them do you spend keeping Jesus company in the tabernacle? Hmm. Lots of interesting yardsticks, and these are just a few of the thousands we could use. A meager perusal of the Church’s teachings on the Ten Commandments provides lots of yardsticks! “You’re being judgmental again, Joe!” No, I’m not. Jesus said not to judge others (Matthew 7:1), true enough. But He also said we’ll know where hearts are by people’s fruits (Matthew 7:20). I'm just being a fruit inspector. You know, it’s been said God is a jealous God, and I believe it’s true. After all, the Church very plainly teaches the reason God created us is to know, love and serve Him in this life so we can be happy with Him in the next. Not only is He jealous, but He’s also a perfect parent. If your child is not focusing on the priorities you’ve set for him/her because there are huge distractions in the child’s life (and this is especially true of teenagers), what good parent among you wouldn’t remove that distraction for the benefit of the child you love? You get that sense of parenting as a reflection of the Perfect Parent. And rest assured, He will remove the distraction that keeps you from focusing on Him as your end-all-be-all of human existence one way or another—whether it be through loss of money or possession or… death and subsequent judgement. I know; the former happened to me. At the end of the day, you don’t possess nearly what you think you do. When it comes down to the finish line in the race of life, you really only own your soul and the virtues & vices you’ve acquired along the way. Actually, your soul isn’t a possession, but rather who you are. Virtues and vices? We’re quick to admit ownership of our virtues, but vices not so much. But believe you me, God will see to it that we all admit ownership of our vices when He calls us for our particular judgement. I don’t know about you, but that scares the daylights out of me! So it behooves us all to focus on acquiring more virtues and doing away with our vices. Believe it; individual judgement comes much quicker than we’d like to believe. I've got good news, though. This little story called Salvation History is told in a best selling book. I've read it all the way through and know how it ends. Guess what? If we persevere in making Him the focus of our lives, we win in the end. Then we can have all we desire. There'll be no more fears, no more worries, no more tears, no more pain or suffering. Even if you live in a mansion now, it will seem like a shack compared to what Jesus has prepared for those who love Him above all else. So renounce your “things” and money as your priorities and focus on ridding yourself of your vices—even the little bitty ones—and let’s all work toward living in eternity together. Once again, that’s What We Believe… Why We Believe It.
