St. Vincent de Paul Parish 2

Third Sunday of Easter April 15, 2018

On Monday, Pope Francis released a short apostolic exhortation entitled “Gaudete et Exsultate” (which translates “Rejoice and be glad”). This simple message focuses on what we can do in our modern society to become more holy. While the entire document is worth reading, below are some excerpts about being witnesses to Christ in our lives. Like Peter and the first disciples, we bear witness to the Risen Christ by our words and actions.

I would like to insist primarily on the call to holiness that the Lord addresses to each of us, the call that he also addresses, personally, to you: “Be holy, for I am holy” (Lev 11:44; cf. 1 Pet 1:16). The Second Vatican Council stated this clearly: “Strengthened by so many and such great means of salvation, all the faithful, whatever their condition or state, are called by the Lord – each in his or her own way – to that perfect holiness by which the Father himself is perfect.”

“Each in his or her own way” the Council says. We should not grow discouraged before examples of holiness that appear unattainable. There are some testimonies that may prove helpful and inspiring, but that we are not meant to copy, for that could even lead us astray from the one specific path that the Lord has in mind for us. The important thing is that each believer discern his or her own path, that they bring out the very best of themselves, the most personal gifts that God has placed in their hearts, rather than hopelessly trying to imitate something not meant for them. We are all called to be witnesses, but there are many actual ways of bearing witness.

This is a powerful summons to all of us. You too need to see the entirety of your life as a mission. Try to do so by listening to God in prayer and recognizing the signs that he gives you. Always ask the Spirit what Jesus expects from you at every moment of your life and in every decision you must make, so as to discern its place in the mission you have received. Allow the Spirit to forge in you the personal mystery that can reflect Jesus Christ in today’s world.

May you come to realize what that word is, the message of Jesus that God wants to speak to the world by your life. Let yourself be transformed. Let yourself be renewed by the Spirit, so that this can happen, lest you fail in your precious mission. The Lord will bring it to fulfilment despite your mistakes and missteps, provided that you do not abandon the path of love but remain ever open to his supernatural grace, which purifies and enlightens.

Do not be afraid to set your sights higher, to allow yourself to be loved and liberated by God. Do not be afraid to let yourself be guided by the Holy Spirit. Holiness does not make you less human, since it is an encounter between your weakness and the power of God’s grace. For in the words of León Bloy, when all is said and done, “the only great tragedy in life, is not to become a saint.”

From the Pastor

WAIT, I’M A DISCIPLE?The Power We All Have to Spread God’s Light

Who were the original Disciples? Just ordinary people with a message that changed history. We have a similar kind of power, too, although it’s easy to forget it. Like them, we are messengers to the people around us revealing the truth of our values, beliefs and faith in the things we do and say.

Join young adults from across the Archdiocese of Chicago and Lisa Fortini-Campbell, Adjunct Professor at Kellogg School of Management, hospice volunteer, and convert to the Catholic Faith at HQ Beercade on Thursday, April 19, as we journey together to discover how each of us can light up the world by living in a way that is brave and bold, and yet never fails to be loving and respectful.

For more information and to register, please visit totchicago.org.

Thursday, April 19 6:30 – 9 p.m. HQ Beercade 213 West Institute Place Chicago, IL 60610

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Please Support the DePaul students on their Faith Journey

Fr. Chris Robinson, CM is leading ten DePaul University students and three Mission and Ministry staff members on a 200 km walking pilgrimage along the Camino de Santiago in Galicia, Spain this summer. This pilgrimage is a great opportunity for students to deepen their faith, journey with others from all over the world, and pause their busy lives for spiritual reflection. Please help them make their way to the Camino! Students and

staff from the pilgrimage will be at the back of the church after all the Masses on Saturday, April 28 and Sunday, April 29 with information about their trip. Please visit https://inspire.depaul.edu/project/9653 to learn more about how you can help. You may also email Fr. Chris at [email protected].

News & Notes

ON DEATH AND TAXESCopyright 2018 by John B. Reynolds ([email protected])

Most people probably know the time-honored maxim--that only two things in life are certain: death, and taxes--but perhaps most people don’t know its origin. I didn’t, anyway, until I looked it up just now. I’m way too lazy to do any scholarly research, of course, but it’s easy enough to tell you Wikipedia’s take on the matter… “‘Death and taxes is a common reference to the famous quotation: ‘Our new Constitution is now established, and has an appearance that promises permanency; but in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes’ (Benjamin Franklin, in a letter to Jean-Baptiste Leroy, 1789). However, Franklin's letter is not the origin of the phrase, which appeared earlier in Daniel Defoe's The Political History of the Devil: ‘Things as certain as death and taxes, can be more firmly believ'd.’ (The Political History of the Devil, 1726), and in The Cobbler of Preston by Christopher Bullock (1716): ‘Tis impossible to be sure of any thing but Death and Taxes.’”

So there you go. If you haven’t been paying attention, Tax Day is today. April 15th. But there is a little twist again this year, given the vagaries of the calendar. With the 15th falling on a Sunday, Tax Day would typically move forward one day to tomorrow, Monday, April 16th. But Tax Day 2018 is actually Tuesday, April 17th. Why, specifically? Because, as CNN.com explains, “…Monday, April 16th is Emancipation Day, a legal holiday in the District of Columbia. It marks the day that President Abraham Lincoln signed the Compensated Emancipation Act in 1862, which freed over 3,000 slaves in DC…” So the one-day reprieve becomes a two-day reprieve. But regardless of a 4/15, 4/16, or 4/17 deadline, the IRS still estimates that up to 25% of the US population doesn’t get around to filing their taxes until two weeks before the deadline. That’s a lot of us, and unfortunately this year, I’m in that number. Hey! I’ve been busy!

“But in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” With all due respect to Benjamin Franklin, Daniel Defoe, and Christopher Bullock…well…yes, and no. Taxes for sure are certain. Even Jesus and the apostles knew about taxes. I mean, remember that whole census tax conversation around the Roman coin bearing Caesar’s likeness? But as believers, we know that death isn’t really death. “Peace be with you,” Jesus tells his friends again this week when he shows up in their midst. They think they’re seeing a ghost, but Jesus puts them at ease: “Why are you troubled? And why do questions arise in your hearts? Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have.” Jesus proceeds to show the disciples his hands and his feet, and his friends are “incredulous for joy.” As we should all be, knowing what we know. April 15/16/17 may be Tax Day, and there may be no escaping it. But we are an Easter people, and we know that ultimately, Franklin, DeFoe, and Bullock--though certainly insightful, all--only got it half-right.
