Dear Parishioners,

I find it interesting, coming back as I have just

done, from a traditionally Catholic country, to note that in

Ireland, and in many European Countries, Catholic

believers now find themselves in the position of being a

“creative minority” in a traditionally Catholic society,

that has now become totally secular and sometimes anti-

Catholic. Many Catholic thinkers in Europe now are

reasoning that this “creative minority” can make up for

the decline in numbers of the Church in Europe with a

smaller group of more committed members. In fact,

many people see this role as more in concert with the

original role of the Church in society.

Present and past history teaches us that a too close

alignment of politics and religion in society leads to all

kinds of excesses and abuses, and ultimately, is not

good for either religion or society.

The important issue for us here in the USA, is to

recognize that in our “Super-Size” mentality what is

important is not the numbers and the size of the

“membership”, but the quality of faith of the members.

As we begin the implementation of Faith in Our Future,

and begin the collaboration process with the 4 shore

parishes in our Cohort, our goal should not be to create

“mega-churches” after the model that we sometimes see

on television on Sunday mornings.

As I look around our own parish families, I am impressed

by the quality and depth of faith that I see amongst those

who make the choice to actively participate in the life of

the parish. I am impressed by the level of respect and

reverence that I see in our children and young people, and

in the sense of ownership and commitment that I see in

the adults of our parishes. But even though by some

standards, we are relatively, and blessedly, a moderately

large parish, we are a small microcosm of the wider

Church throughout the world. We too have our loosely

affiliated majority, and our creative minority -

people with a strong and indomitable faith and

commitment that you know will survive any challenge

and any vicissitude that life can bring.

The goal for all of us is to become a part of that

minority in our parish community, but also more

especially in the larger community and society.

Our goal is to be the leaven in our communities that

nourishes and fosters the spirit and the values of the

Gospel in our communities. These are the values of

mutual respect and care and concern for the weak and

the vulnerable, the poor and the dispossessed

Prayer for the Protection of Religious Liberty

O God Our Creator,

Through the power and working of your Holy Spirit,

you call us to live out our faith in the midst of the world,

bringing the light and the saving truth of the Gospel

to every corner of society.

We ask you to bless us in our vigilance for the gift of religious liberty.

Give us the strength of mind and heart to readily defend our freedoms when they are threatened;

give us courage in making our voices heard on behalf of the rights of your Church

and the freedom of conscience of all people of faith

Grant, we pray, O heavenly Father, a clear and united voice to all your sons and daughters

gathered in your Church in this decisive hour in the history of our nation,

so that, with every trial withstood and every danger overcome-

for the sake of our children, our grandchildren, and all who come after us-

this great land will always be "one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Amen
