T oday’s Gospel
challenges us to love one another in light of “fraternal correction,” a concept lost in our culture. St. Francis de Sales speaks of it in light of true
friendship:
It often happens that when we have high regard for friends, we can absorb their imperfections. Certainly, we must love our friends in spite of their faults. Yet, true friendship requires us to share the true good, not evil. Thus, just as gold diggers leave the sand on the bank and take the gold they find, so also those who share in a true friendship ought to remove the sand of its imperfections, and not let this sand get into their souls.
True friendship can live only on true virtue. It comes from God, leads to God and its bond endures eternally in God. It is a weak friendship that passively watches our friends take the wrong path: to let them perish rather than to courageously help them with the lance of correction. Genuine, living friendships cannot continue in the midst of vice. If it is only a passing vice, a true friendship will put it to flight by correction.
When we correct with compassion rather than anger, repentance will sink in far deeper and penetrate more effectively. Nothing so quickly calms down an angry elephant as the sight of a little lamb. When reason brings along rage, it is feared rather than loved. But reason without anger peaceably chastises, corrects, and warns, even though it might be severe and exact. A father’s gentle, loving rebuke has far greater power to correct a child than rage and passion.
Blessed are they who speak only to give “fraternal correction” in a spirit of sacred love and profound humility! More blessed are those who are ready to receive it with a gentle, peaceful and tranquil heart! In being humble, faithful and courageous, they have already made great progress, and will arrive at the highest degree of Christian holiness.

“But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: ‘Do not fear, for I have
redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and
when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the
flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior...” (Is. 43:1-3)

• 40 Days for Life:
• RE: COVD-19: We are
concerned about you,
your families, and the
community. We, along
with our Day Captains, have decided to alter
our 40 Days presence outside Planned
Parenthood to reduce the risk of exposure
for all. Everyone is at risk and has the
potential to contract or pass it onto someone
else.
• 1. We will continue to park the truck with a
new banner each day outside Planned
Parenthood. This, alone, will maintain our 40
Days presence on Pismo Street.
• 2. Prayer can be done from home, or if you
wish, you may come to PP and pray from
within your cars. We do not encourage you
to stand outside on the sidewalk and pray.
You may collect a 40 Days for Life yard sign
from the truck bed to place in your car
window or trunk if you'd like.

A MESSAGE OF LOVE In the final verses of today’s Gospel reading Jesus says that when two or three are gathered in his name, “there am I in the midst of them” (Matthew 18:20). So we understand that fraternal correction is always undertaken with Jesus present to us. Likewise, encouraging the good in others is not only the right thing for us to do, it is a necessity. The Lord tells the prophet Ezekiel that if he “does not speak out” to dissuade a person from evil, then he too will be held responsible. We live in a “do your own thing” age when moral objectivity is often ignored. Clearly when the message we share with others is one of love, our motives cannot ever be misinterpreted. As St. Paul writes, “Love does no evil to the neighbor; hence, love is the fulfillment of the law” (Romans 13:10). Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
LABOR A truly American sentiment recognizes the dignity of labor and the fact that honor lies in honest toil. —Grover Cleveland
NEIGHBORLY LOVE We can never love our neighbor too much. —St. Francis de Sales
SAINT PETER CLAVER (1581-1654) September 9 Nearly two hundred years before the
Declaration of Independence proclaimed “that all
men are created equal,” two hundred fifty years
before the Emancipation Proclamation mandated an
end to slavery, three hundred fifty years before
Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream,” and four
hundred years before the election of an American
president boasting African heritage, Peter Claver
left his native Spain behind to volunteer for the
Jesuit missions in Colombia. There, he was
horrified both by slavery as an institution and by the
inhuman brutality inflicted upon the slaves. He
solemnly vowed to become “the slave of the
slaves,” and lived that vow heroically for close to
forty years. Not knowing their language, Peter
began his ministry among the slaves by using the
universal language of practical charity, providing
medical care and a tangible though wordless
assertion of their human dignity: “We spoke to them
not with words but with our hands, kneeling beside
them, bathing their faces and bodies, encouraging
them with friendly gestures” (see Liturgy of the
Hours, Volume 4, p. 2018). Then came
evangelization and baptism. Holiness as human
wholeness: Peter Claver’s enduring witness.—Peter
