Live the Liturgy "No one who sets a hand to the plow and looks

to what was left behind is fit for the Kingdom of

God." Jesus' words may seem a bit harsh but are

directly on target. The life of discipleship can be

costly. Upholding the tenets of the Gospel can put us

at odds, even with those most close to us. Jesus never

misses an opportunity to spend time with outcasts and

sinners. It matters little to Him whether doing so

breaks a Sabbath law. The Gospel may seem

unrealistic, but it is the Gospel nonetheless. We

respect the dignity of all persons, from conception to natural death. We work on behalf of justice, which

calls us to be with the poor, lonely, confused, and

broken. The old "eye for an eye" mentality no longer

applies when it comes to dealing with those who hurt

us. When Jesus asks you to follow Him, will you go?

Independence Day

Today throughout the United States, we celebrate our freedom. Our rights

are protected and opportunities abound. We recognize that freedom has a cost,

one we celebrate and honor on days such as this. It's good to honor those who

fight for our country, who may well pay the ultimate price for the liberties

we're afforded. As faithful Catholics, we recognize that there is more to

freedom than simply being at liberty to make our lives what we want them to

be. St. John Paul II reminds us: "Freedom is not just doing what we can, it is

doing what we ought." We become freer within ourselves and within our

relationships when we choose what is right and good. When we choose sin, we

become trapped in egoism - less free, not more. This Independence Day, let's

continue to pursue virtue and good character and encourage others to do this same.

Why Do We Do That? - Catholic Life Explained

Question: This time of year, I attend a lot of weddings. Why do

Catholic weddings need to take place in a church?

Answer:

Technically, there is a clause in Church law that could allow

for weddings to take place outside of a church, in a suitable space

under special circumstances, but it requires the rare permission of

the bishop. But the meaning of marriage goes very, very deep,

and the Church has a vested interest in protecting that meaning.

As Catholics, we don't see a wedding as an event that needs a

pleasing backdrop.

Marriage is a sacrament, both an occasion of joyful promise and symbolic solemnity. It is a spiritual event. The loving bond of

marriage symbolizes the mystical union between Christ and His

Church. The man and woman profess lifelong vows of fidelity,

and they receive supernatural grace from God to keep their

promises. Receiving the Sacrament of Marriage in a church has

broader symbolic meaning for the couple as well. Marriage isn't

simply two people in isolation from the world around them.

Marriage is the joining of families and the beginning of a new,

holy mission in the life of the couple. Weddings are sacred

occasions, and it's fitting that they occur in sacred spaces.

Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time Have you ever heard that the Gospel is radical? In our times,

we hear that word and think of fundamentalists, radical activists,

or extremists - people who go beyond limits to achieve their goals

and may not consider themselves bound by normal propriety or

morality. Their ethos might not be so different from James and

John in today's Gospel. "Lord, do you want us to call down fire

from Heaven to consume them?" This isn't so foreign to some of

the stories of the Old Testament. Yet Jesus rebukes them. He

won't be exacting in the way his contemporaries expected. There

will be no radical rain down of fire and brimstone. Jesus is radical

in another way: the call to discipleship. "The Son of Man has nowhere to rest His head." "Let the

dead bury their dead. But you, go and proclaim the Kingdom of

God." "No one who sets a hand to the plow and looks back to

what was left behind is fit for the Kingdom of God." These can be

difficult passages to read. These are not normal things to hear! It

can be easy for many of us to avoid the exacting nature of the

Gospel, which might not be what we think it is. James and John

wanted to set the bar high for others on the outside and to punish

those who didn't meet that standard. Jesus sets the bar high for

His disciples, those who say they want to follow Him. He may be

using some hyperbole, but it's only to send a clear message. This is a radical call, one that has a cost. To truly put God and others

first, before ourselves, will involve sacrifice. How is Jesus asking

you to be radical today?

Action Alert on Commercial Surrogacy! Governor Cuomo has prioritized passage (by the end of this

session in June!) of dangerous legislation to allow surrogate

motherhood for profit. The bill would enable the buying and sell-

ing of children and the exploitation of women, and would lead to

an increased reliance on IVF (in vitro fertilization) and the de-

struction of more human embryos. Please let your elected offi-

cials know that you oppose this legislation. Take action now! Go

to www.nyscatholic.org, hover over Take Action!, click on Latest

Action Alerts, scroll down and click on Maintain the ban on sur-

rogacy to send a quick email message to your representatives in

Albany. While you’re there, please check out the rest of the Lat-est Action Alerts—all issues of life and death! If you need more

XIII Niedziela Zwykła Zdanie, które rozpoczyna dzisiejszą Ewangelię, jest

niezwykle istotne dla zrozumienia całej Ewangelii według św.

Łukasza: Gdy dopełnił się czas Jego wzięcia z tego świata,

postanowił udać się do Jerozolimy (Łk 9, 51). Większość

zdarzeń, mów, dokonanych przez Jezusa i przez Niego

wygłoszonych, św. Łukasz umiejscawia właśnie w czasie wielkiej

podróży z Galilei do Jerozolimy. Nie chodzi tutaj o zwykłe

przemieszczanie się, lecz w tym kryje się coś bardzo istotnego, a

mianowicie, Jezus wstępuje ku Wielkanocy, to znaczy idzie, aby

oddać swoje życie, zmartwychwstać i zesłać Ducha Świętego.

Jezus idzie świadomie na spotkanie ze śmiercią, aby pokazać, że solidaryzuje się z człowiekiem we wszystkim, także w śmierci,

która to dla każdego człowieka jest czymś najbardziej

tajemniczym, której się lęka. Przechodzi więc ze śmierci do

zmartwychwstania, aby przede wszystkim pokazać każdemu

człowiekowi, że jego droga jest podobna do Jezusowej.
