Inviting Catholics "Home" |
|
|
|

Enhancing our Catholic Home:
|
|
Is it Time for a Personal Invite?
|
|
Did you know that the major reason someone stays "home" in the Catholic Church is because someone they know reached out to them?

Let's face it....the commercials can only go so far! Sure they have great images, a strong soundtrack and an important, welcoming message. But, they are no substitute for an actual, living invitation from one human being to another.
We now live in a society where we constantly receive requests: from answering a survey after a customer service call to texting to give $10 to the Red Cross in Haiti. People are no longer offended when someone they know asks them to join them for Mass! And like you being asked to buy Girl Scout cookies, it is okay if the person says "no" or needs to think about it. Don't be afraid to ask someone you know and who knows you. "Now is the acceptable time!" 2Cor 6:2

4th Sunday of Lent-Laetare - Rejoice! |
|
|
|
The Gospel story of today can be read in many ways.
It is the story of the younger prodigal son;
it is the story of the father who does not want to lose anyone:
it is the story of the older son who did not understand.
While hearing it, you can identify yourself with any of the three,
and you can do that in all three cases very fruitfully.
You can identify with the lost son, saying: "Let me go home."
You can identify with the father saying: "Let me be merciful."
You can identify with the older son saying: "Let me open my heart."
Let us forget about that younger one:
let us forget about that older one:
let us identify with the father not wanting to lose anyone.
And nobody will feel lost, us included.
Jesus, Hope Drawing Near by Joseph G. Donders
