AMCLUSTER NEWS�

Today, Isaiah presents the problem of suffering. Isaiah writing

about the "servant of the Lord" says, "The Lord was pleased to crush

him..." Jesus, ful�illing that prophecy, speaks about his coming

"baptism" � the humiliation and agony he would endure.�

What sense can we make of suffering? �

St. Padre Pio, whose feast we recently celebrated, has a helpful im-

age. He invites us to imagine a small boy looking up at his mother do-

ing embroidery. Seeing only knots and tangled threads, he asks his

mother what she is doing. She lowers the embroidery hoop and

shows the good part of her work. Says Padre Pio, "Each color is in

place, and the various threads form a harmonious design."�

That's the �irst thing we need to say about suffering. We see the

knots and tangles; God sees the embroidery from beginning to end.�

There is, however, something we can know: suffering is the curren-

cy of love. After speaking about his "baptism", Jesus says that he did

not come to be served but to serve. Service always involves some

measure of suffering. By de�inition a servant does not do his own will.

It's great when two wills come together, but even when they join per-

fectly, as was the case with Jesus and His Father, the suffering can

still be agony. Suffering is the currency of love.�

Our buildings will turn to dust, our nations will unravel, but every

act of love, every suffering joined to Jesus � will shine forever.�

Suffering is like a reverse embroidery and that it is the currency of

love. That's the reason we do not consider useless the suffering ter-

minally ill person. If he or she joins their suffering to the cross, that

love has incalculable value. The Son of Man, says Jesus, did not come

to be served but to serve and give his life as a ransom for many.�

ST. JOHN HALLOWEEN PARADE�is October 31st beginning at

1pm in the church parking lot by the priest’s house...will end at the park

What is YOUTH MINISTRY in the Marion Catholic Community?�

Our ministry serves the elementary, middle school & high school students of our faith

community and surrounding area.� Through youth nights on Sunday, the Liturgy each

week, retreats, service opportunities and youth gatherings, we seek to bring our young

people into a closer relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church.�

Our goal is to lead our young people closer to Christ.� To do that, our focus is on rela-

tional ministry and the Eucharist. �

What does that mean?��

It means our ministry is focused on building relationships�with the youth and, in

turn, the youth with Jesus Christ (especially Jesus in the Eucharist)�so that real

change and transformation can occur in our young people’s lives.�

Why do we do ministry this way?���

Because this approach is founded in the Gospels. Jesus called men to follow him as

disciples and eventually those disciples were commissioned and became known as the

11 apostles.�The Gospel of Matthew ends with these words of Jesus to the 11 apos-

tles,�

“Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the

Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have

commanded you.�And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.”�

COME BE PART OF IT�

“Evangelizing is in fact the grace and vocation proper to the Church,

her deepest identity. She exists in order to evangelize.” �Pope Paul VI �

EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP �

RECOGNIZE GOD IN YOUR

ORDINARY MOMENTS�

What’s in it for me?�

I think we’ve all been guilty of

looking at a situation and

wondering what’s in it for us. It

doesn’t matter if it’s a particular

work assignment, someone at the

parish asking for help with the

mission trip bake sale, or your

spouse asking if you’ll take over the

grocery shopping this week. Often,

our first reaction to one of these

requests is a heavy sigh and the

thought: “If I do this, what will I

get?”�

Sometimes it surprises us to realize

that the Apostles were no different.

We tend to idolize these

contemporaries of Christ as giants

who walked with the Savior. But in

reality, these individuals were

merely human beings struggling to

commit to the task of everyday

stewardship.�

In the Gospels, we see glimpses of

them longing for praise and

affirmation. We see them jockeying

for positions of power within the

group of twelve. We see them

expect earthly rewards like honor

and admiration. We see them acting

a lot like us.�

But in the end, we see them

transformed by the grace of God.

Like all the saints, their holiness

stems from their commitment to

their call. They stumble through,

and as they stumble, they keep

trusting God. They keep turning to

Him. They keep asking for help.

They don’t give up just because

they keep failing at it.�

We are defined by what we give

when we have no hope of being

reimbursed, rewarded, or

recognized. The Apostles

understood this, eventually, and

they gave accordingly. Most of

them gave their very lives.�

Remember, they’re just like us. If

they can do it, we can too.�
