Mammon God or
There is a story told in a certain
parish about a coffee pot that
lsquodisappearedrsquo from the kitchen It was
practically brand new when it simply disappeared
The women of the book club especially but not
solely were the most vocal about their complaints
Some were convinced it was the pastor at the time
who took it home Others were convinced it was one
of the many groups who used the church for various
activities Still others could name names of people
they were convinced had taken the coffee pot
That coffee pot divided people Some were willing
to write it off others were adamant that the sinner
should be named and punished One person who
was tired of the discussion simply purchased
another one
But that didnrsquot stop the conversation It was a sore
subject and it came up every time there was
discussion about purchasing new equipment in the
church lsquoHow can we make sure it stays in the
churchrsquo was always asked And often there were
glares in the direction of whomever that particular
person thought had taken it
Locks were added to the kitchen cabinets Rules
were instituted about who could use the kitchen
and when The entire parish was affected as more
locks were installed more rules made and more
people became suspects Although we acknowledge
that we are sinners at the beginning of every Mass
no one could forgive the sin of taking the coffee pot
A couple of years later the coffee pot was
discovered in a kitchen cabinet It was lsquohidingrsquo
behind a large supply of Styrofoam coffee cups It
had been there all along No one had taken it No
one had borrowed it No one had noticed it But the
damage was done
Our Church exists to help people develop and
strengthen a relationship with God a relationship
made possible by Jesus Our Church exists to also
build up relationships with one another in Jesus
But sometimes the lsquomissing coffee potsrsquo causes
more problems and divisions than needed
One of the most important things we can learn from
the shrewd manager in todayrsquos gospel is that
relationships are more important than money or
coffee pots

Msg Kirwin Hall 800am - 200pm
Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Mammon God or
There is a story told in a certain
parish about a coffee pot that
lsquodisappearedrsquo from the kitchen It was
practically brand new when it simply disappeared
The women of the book club especially but not
solely were the most vocal about their complaints
Some were convinced it was the pastor at the time
who took it home Others were convinced it was one
of the many groups who used the church for various
activities Still others could name names of people
they were convinced had taken the coffee pot
That coffee pot divided people Some were willing
to write it off others were adamant that the sinner
should be named and punished One person who
was tired of the discussion simply purchased
another one
But that didnrsquot stop the conversation It was a sore
subject and it came up every time there was
discussion about purchasing new equipment in the
church lsquoHow can we make sure it stays in the
churchrsquo was always asked And often there were
glares in the direction of whomever that particular
person thought had taken it
Locks were added to the kitchen cabinets Rules
were instituted about who could use the kitchen
and when The entire parish was affected as more
locks were installed more rules made and more
people became suspects Although we acknowledge
that we are sinners at the beginning of every Mass
no one could forgive the sin of taking the coffee pot
A couple of years later the coffee pot was
discovered in a kitchen cabinet It was lsquohidingrsquo
behind a large supply of Styrofoam coffee cups It
had been there all along No one had taken it No
one had borrowed it No one had noticed it But the
damage was done
Our Church exists to help people develop and
strengthen a relationship with God a relationship
made possible by Jesus Our Church exists to also
build up relationships with one another in Jesus
But sometimes the lsquomissing coffee potsrsquo causes
more problems and divisions than needed
One of the most important things we can learn from
the shrewd manager in todayrsquos gospel is that
relationships are more important than money or
coffee pots

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Mammon God or
There is a story told in a certain
parish about a coffee pot that
lsquodisappearedrsquo from the kitchen It was
practically brand new when it simply disappeared
The women of the book club especially but not
solely were the most vocal about their complaints
Some were convinced it was the pastor at the time
who took it home Others were convinced it was one
of the many groups who used the church for various
activities Still others could name names of people
they were convinced had taken the coffee pot
That coffee pot divided people Some were willing
to write it off others were adamant that the sinner
should be named and punished One person who
was tired of the discussion simply purchased
another one
But that didnrsquot stop the conversation It was a sore
subject and it came up every time there was
discussion about purchasing new equipment in the
church lsquoHow can we make sure it stays in the
churchrsquo was always asked And often there were
glares in the direction of whomever that particular
person thought had taken it
Locks were added to the kitchen cabinets Rules
were instituted about who could use the kitchen
and when The entire parish was affected as more
locks were installed more rules made and more
people became suspects Although we acknowledge
that we are sinners at the beginning of every Mass
no one could forgive the sin of taking the coffee pot
A couple of years later the coffee pot was
discovered in a kitchen cabinet It was lsquohidingrsquo
behind a large supply of Styrofoam coffee cups It
had been there all along No one had taken it No
one had borrowed it No one had noticed it But the
damage was done
Our Church exists to help people develop and
strengthen a relationship with God a relationship
made possible by Jesus Our Church exists to also
build up relationships with one another in Jesus
But sometimes the lsquomissing coffee potsrsquo causes
more problems and divisions than needed
One of the most important things we can learn from
the shrewd manager in todayrsquos gospel is that
relationships are more important than money or
coffee pots

Msg Kirwin Hall 800am - 200pm
Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)

public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived

Mammon God or
There is a story told in a certain
parish about a coffee pot that
lsquodisappearedrsquo from the kitchen It was
practically brand new when it simply disappeared
The women of the book club especially but not
solely were the most vocal about their complaints
Some were convinced it was the pastor at the time
who took it home Others were convinced it was one
of the many groups who used the church for various
activities Still others could name names of people
they were convinced had taken the coffee pot
That coffee pot divided people Some were willing
to write it off others were adamant that the sinner
should be named and punished One person who
was tired of the discussion simply purchased
another one
But that didnrsquot stop the conversation It was a sore
subject and it came up every time there was
discussion about purchasing new equipment in the
church lsquoHow can we make sure it stays in the
churchrsquo was always asked And often there were
glares in the direction of whomever that particular
person thought had taken it
Locks were added to the kitchen cabinets Rules
were instituted about who could use the kitchen
and when The entire parish was affected as more
locks were installed more rules made and more
people became suspects Although we acknowledge
that we are sinners at the beginning of every Mass
no one could forgive the sin of taking the coffee pot
A couple of years later the coffee pot was
discovered in a kitchen cabinet It was lsquohidingrsquo
behind a large supply of Styrofoam coffee cups It
had been there all along No one had taken it No
one had borrowed it No one had noticed it But the
damage was done
Our Church exists to help people develop and
strengthen a relationship with God a relationship
made possible by Jesus Our Church exists to also
build up relationships with one another in Jesus
But sometimes the lsquomissing coffee potsrsquo causes
more problems and divisions than needed
One of the most important things we can learn from
the shrewd manager in todayrsquos gospel is that
relationships are more important than money or
coffee pots

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Msg Kirwin Hall 800am - 200pm
Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Msg Kirwin Hall 800am - 200pm
Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by

Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Why does the celebrant wear
different colored vestments The
outer colored vestment you see is
called a chasuble The name comes
from the Latin word ldquocasulardquo which
means ldquolittle houserdquo and it originally
referred to an outer garment worn
for protection against the weather
For us it reminds us of the seamless
garment worn by Jesus traditionally
woven by the Blessed Mother for
Him and for which the soldiers at His
crucifixion cast lots rather than cut it
apart Psalm 22 refers to this ldquothey
divide my garments among them and
for my vesture they cast lotsrdquo This is
the same psalm that Jesus quotes just
before He died on the cross when He
said ldquoMy God My God why have You
forsaken Merdquo So there is a great deal
of meaning for us even before we get
to the colors
The color of the chasuble is
determined by the liturgical season
or the specific feast or event being
celebrated White symbolizing light
innocence purity joy triumph and
glory is worn on the following
occasions Christmas Season Easter
Season Feasts of the Lord other than
of His passion Feasts of Mary the
angels and saints who were not
martyrs All Saints Day Feasts of the
Apostles Nuptial Masses and Masses
for the dead (Requiem Masses) when
the deceased is a baptized child who
died before the age of reason Red is
for The Passion blood fire Gods
Love and martyrdom and is worn on
Feasts of the Lords passion Blood
and Cross Feasts of the martyrs
Palm Sunday and Pentecost Violet
recalls penance humility or
melancholy and is used during the
Advent Season the three Sundays
before Lent and during Lent their
Vigils except for Ascension and
Pentecost and Good Friday Black
represents mourning and sorrow and
is worn on All Souls Day and for
Masses for the dead (Requiem
Masses) except for baptized children
who have died before the age of
reason Rose is for joy and is worn
only twice each year on Gaudete
Sunday (Third Sunday of Advent)
and Laetare Sunday (Fourth Sunday
of Lent) You will also see the pink or
rose candle for the third Sunday of
Advent on the Advent Wreath Green
the color seen most often is worn
during Ordinary Time which does
not mean ldquoordinaryrdquo as in ldquoplainrdquo or
ldquocommonrdquo It is those periods of the
liturgical year when we are not
celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

celebrating specific times such as the
Easter and Christmas Seasons It
symbolizes the Holy Ghost life
eternal and hope and is used during
most of the year specifically the time
after Epiphany until the Sundays
before Lent and after Pentecost until
Advent Christmas Time and Easter
Time highlight the central mysteries
of the Paschal Mystery the
incarnation death on the cross
resurrection and ascension of Jesus
Christ and the descent of the Holy
Spirit at Pentecost The Sundays and
weeks of Ordinary Time on the other
hand take us through the life of
Christ This is the time of conversion
This is living the life of Christ It is a
time for growth and maturation a
time in which the mystery of Christ is
called to penetrate ever more deeply
into history until all things are finally
caught up in Christ The goal toward
which all of history is directed is
represented by the final Sunday in
Ordinary Time the Solemnity of Our
Lord Jesus Christ King of the
Universe So Ordinary Time is really
quite extraordinary
Reading I Amos 8 4-7
Responsorial Psalm 113
Reading II 1 Timothy 2 1-8
Gospel Luke 161-13
God in the First Reading is quite
offended by his peoplersquos evil actions
just as we would expect But in the
Gospel parable we find the master of
the house rewarding a dishonest
steward for cheating What is going
on
A question are you shrewd Can you
get troubled circumstances to work
to your advantage
If you said yes doesnrsquot that mean you
are un-Christian
After all we are supposed to dedicate
ourselves to charity giving always to
to others Or at least that is the usual
understanding of Christianity
Start with the First Reading God sees
that the merchants are actually
agreeing to ldquofix their scales for
cheatingrdquo This is bad enough but
they have determined also to actually
buy poor people to purchase them
and their lives for silver or even for a
pair of sandals
The Lord has sworn by the pride of
Jacob never will I forget a thing they
have done
The Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot show
disdain for the poor even though he
is taking care of his own future Such
slavery no longer exists in the United
States for which hurray But arenrsquot
each of our own lives being bought
off by luxury Havenrsquot you noticed
that commerce wishes to buy you
with cable TV or a convertible or
prescription drugs or real-estate
plans or weight reduction beautiful
teeth slick automobiles perfect
wheel chairs and even breath-
freshening chewing gum (whose
advertising portrays sexual
promiscuity in order to sell their
gum)
Godrsquos reaction is very clear and we
should react similarly God hates it
Yet in the Gospel a parable portrays
Godrsquos attitude quite differently The
master comes back to find that his
top steward has been squandering
the masterrsquos property Naturally he
plans to fire the man and in this he
agrees completely with the First
Reading that cheating should not be
tolerated
But then comes the curve ball The
servant is portrayed as shrewd He
thinks up a plan If I am to be fired I
had better acquire some friends so I
will not be homeless Since I will
remain steward until I give an
account I will go to each of my
masterrsquos debtors and make a deal
Give me half of what you owe and I
will count it on the books as fully
paid
The master actually commends him
for this plan He tells the servant you
have been prudent in preparing a
home for yourself
Why does he treat this dishonest
servant differently than the
dishonest merchants in the First
Reading The answer is in Sundayrsquos
Psalm 113 which says Praise the
Lord who lifts up the poor
Do you think the merchants from the
First Reading were ldquolifting up the
poorrdquo Werenrsquot they buying and
selling them instead purchasing
them for even ldquoa pair of sandalsrdquo
Well the Gospelrsquos steward doesnrsquot
show disdain for the poor even
though he is taking care of his own
future (by making friends with the
poor) He gets a portion of their debts
back for the master He never buys or
sells themmdashhe makes their life a
little easier by cutting their debts in
half and he courts the masterrsquos favor
by cutting losses to his property So
he was shrewd He did good by being
so clever The remaining servants
were happy The master was happy
The steward kept his job Good was
served rather than evil Maybe the
actual moral for Sunday is be clever
when you do good

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom

Focus on Religious Freedom from
Catholics for Freedom of Religion
NYS Proposes to Deny Religious and
Private Schools Control Over
Curriculum
While 30 states presently dictate the
content of teaching core academic
subjects (science English social studies
math) for religious amp private schools NY
State has proposed a version of control
that includes a much wider range of
subjects and much more oversite The
proposed NYS law S6589 known as
Substantially Equivalent Instruction for
Nonpublic School Students would
require public school administrators to
oversee private schools within their
border whether or not their own
schools are achieving academic
proficiency and would
unconstitutionally force compelled
speech content discrimination and
viewpoint discrimination
Leaders of Jewish Catholic and other
private schools explain that they already
undergo accreditation by groups such as
the NYS Association of Independent
Schools Our schools go through a very
thorough process the gold standard of
accreditation said the Association
director To do anything in addition is
redundant unfunded and doesnt make
sense
The proposed regulations disregard the
long history of success demonstrated by
private schools across NY State they
undermine the choices made by parents
who choose private schools for their
children and they substitute the
education bureaucracy in Albany for the
private school leadership sought by
parents and students wrote Parents
For Educational amp Religious Liberty in
Schools (PEARLS)
Kellenberg Catholic HS principal Bro
Kenneth M Hoagland SM wrote NYS
Education Dept (NYSED) is attempting
to drastically expand its authority over
non-public schools (Catholic schools)
have always maintained a
comprehensive educational program
equal or superior to the program of
studies dictated by the NYSED Under
the proposal the (local school district)
would oversee lesson plans testing
scores report cards and the likeNo
public school should have the authority
to oversee our academic program
The immediate targets of the
regulations are 39 Yeshivas that for
religious reasons reject much of secular
education and teach mostly in Yiddish
rather than English Many Jewish
leaders see this law as a violation of
religious rights a threat to the
traditional religious focus of their
schools The Catholic School
Administrators Association of NYS argue
that the oversight of Catholic Schools
by a (public school local district) is a
clear conflict of interest and the
proposed regulations are ill conceived
and unacceptable (thefederalistcom
