Msgr. Richard Huneger - The Pastor’s Keyboard
Last weekend, the Old Testament reading and the Gospel reading highlighted the
exemplary generosity with trust in God of the widow of Zarephath and the widow at the
Temple: both, no matter how little they had, started "first" with "something for God and
his work," and found themselves blessed or praised as a result: in the first case, the oil
and flour did not run dry or run out, and in the second case, everyone is moved to
evaluate whether the fundamental service (or worship) of his life is to God or Mammon (Money). The many appeals to our generosity, whether at church or elsewhere,
are opportunities for exercising our giving muscles, to prove that we think not only of
ourselves, but beyond ourselves. The collection basket at the altar is a sign of our detachment from "mammon" (selfishness) and cause for gratitude to God for each other.
And when funding or de-funding decisions regarding programs or personnel are made,
we realize with St Paul that we must be prepared and skilled in knowing how to get
along with much or with little. Church history is filled with remarkable achievements
and testimonies to love for God embodied in lovely churches and art, but also is peppered with times of great reversal, despoliation, confiscation, persecution, and seemingly hopeless lack of all material resources and consolation. God continues, faithful,
through it all.
Last weekend's second reading from Hebrews ("It is appointed for all men to die,
once, and then the judgment") is also a reminder that "You Can't Take It With You."
In this Month of the Poor Souls, or rather, of the Holy Souls, the doctrine of Purgatory
tells us that we can take something with us into eternity, but only that which represents
how we have become a gift to everyone else in our lives, so that the gift of heaven in
the Communion of Saints is experienced for what it is: where I am nothing but giving
my all, and everyone else is the same situation, and I'm blessed as a recipient of their
all. In the words of St Augustine: "each gives to, and prays for all, and each receives
from, and is prayed for, by all." All else must go. Purgatory means the burning away of
anything inconsistent with this state of perfect mutual gift, getting rid of all that "you
can't take with you."
November is also a time to think about our respect for and care for the deceased. St Joseph Parish has a cemetery: St Barbara Cemetery, just a couple of miles
away, on South Liberty. It's a treasure trove of parish history -- there lie so many whose
blood, sweat, and tears over the last 150 years gave us what we now take for granted
here. It is a Catholic Cemetery. Care for the dead should reflect our belief in the Resurrection of the Body, a Temple of the Holy Spirit. The Church's long tradition prefers the
presence of the body at the funeral service, and burial of the body in the ground or
placement in a vault. For good reasons, and provided it in no way reflects a denial of
the resurrection, cremation is permissible, preferably after the funeral Mass. However,
the cremains should be treated with the same reverence as the body, and buried in the
ground or placed in a columbarium. Some families instinctively realize this after a time,
sometimes years later, when the "ashes" have been kept privately, at home, maybe
stuck in a closet or a box (and then accidentally discovered, with shock, while doing
Spring cleaning). There needs to be respect for the integrity of the person of the deceased, and so it is unacceptable to fight over and divide cremains among family members, or take the cremains and strew them over the ocean, or at different vacation spots
the dear old Dad liked to visit, and so on – not to mention newer practices like incorporating the ashes into sculptures, picture frames, pendants, wind chimes, sundials, teddy
bears, .44-caliber Magnum silver-bullet keychains, born-to-ride motorcycle gas tank
urns, and the like; or mixing the ashes with inks for tattooing, so that Grandma can always be "near" and even "within" (maybe even "visible," as a photo-transfer tattoo).
Please keep these points in mind as your consider the arrangements for disposition for
yourself or family in the future. What has just been said may raise questions about the
validity of spreading the relics of saints (little pieces of their bones, or even bigger
chunks) to many locations for use in church altars or display in museums; or for that
matter, the donation of organs for medical purposes (donation of the more vital organs
for transplants always needs to respect the living person, and can never legitimately be
done in such a way as to kill a living person off in order to get a fresher organ for greater success in transplanting it). But a careful and principled delineation of propriety and
limits in light of our solidarity in the communion of saints, and our social nature, does
help us to avoid a frivolous practice not in harmony with our Catholic faith.

From November 15–21, 2015, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops invites families, parishes, schools, and other Catholic groups to
participate in National Bible Week in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Second Vatican Council Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation, Dei Verbum. Here are some commonly asked questions about the Bible:
“Why is the Bible important?”. St. Jerome said about 1600 years ago, “Ignorance of Scripture [the Bible] is ignorance of Christ.” In other words,
if we aren’t spending time with the Word of God in the Bible, we won’t know Jesus Christ. The Bible is not dead literature like an encyclopedia, but
rather it is infused with the power and presence of the Holy Spirit. As a result, when we read the Bible, God changes our lives forever – he transforms us into the men and women He wants us to be.
“When do Catholics read the Bible?” If you attend Mass every Sunday for 3 consecutive years, you will have heard almost the entire Bible proclaimed in the Liturgy of the Word. If you attend daily Mass, you’ll hear almost the entire Bible in 2 years. All are encouraged to read the Bible
every day, most especially in the home with all the family.
“How should we interpret the Bible?” The Holy Spirit will speak to us all (if we are listening) when we read the Bible – a word, phrase, image or
teaching will strike us to the heart. However, the official interpretation of the Bible in regards to doctrinal teachings belongs to the authority of the
Church. Jesus Christ gave us the teaching office of the Church, the Magisterium (the pope and bishops in union with him) to serve the Word of
God by fulfilling this role. Without the guidance of the Holy Spirit in the Magisterium, disunity and division will result. This is visible in today’s
43,000+ denominations of non-Catholic Christianity which results in about 43,000+ different, competing interpretations of the Bible. The Catechism
of the Catholic Church is an excellent resource that gives us clear guidance and interpretation of the Bible and every family should have one.
“What’s the best thing I can do to strengthen my marriage and keep my children Catholic?” If you are not able to daily attend Mass or
spend time with Jesus in Eucharistic Adoration in the chapel, joining with your spouse and children each day to read and pray with the daily Mass
readings is probably one of the best way to grow closer to God. Start today: reflect on the Eucharist (John 6), God’s plan for marriage (Eph. 5), or
the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in the early Church (Acts).

Los Dones Especiales de Dios
No hace mucho tiempo, Dios decidió que el quería un
niño o una niña como tu. Así que te creo, te dio la vida
dentro de tu madre.
Dios te dio un cuerpo con el que puedes hacer todo tipo
de cosas. Te dio ojos que leen, oídos que escuchan, nariz
para oler, lengua para saborear y dedos para tocar. Dios
te dio todas estas cosas maravillosas.
Dios también te dio un alma, algo muy importante y especial. El alma es parte de ti que te hace vivir y que nunca
morirá. Es invisible, pero real.
Tu cuerpo y tu alma son muy especiales para Dios. El te
dio un ángel de la guarda para que te ayude a cuidar de
tu alma y de tu cuerpo. Tu ángel de la guarda te ayuda a
hacer lo que es correcto, porque es tu amigo. Te ayuda a
llegar al Cielo, donde Dios quiere que
estés con El para siempre. Tu tienes
que ser bueno para ir al Cielo. Debes
conocer, amar y servir a Dios mientras
estas en esta tierra. Dios quiere que
reces con frecuencia. Quiere que
recibas los Sacramentos de la
Penitencia y de la Sagrada Comunión.
También quiere que seamos obedientes
y cariñosos.
Aquí hay una oración que puedes decir:
Gracias, Padre amado, por la vida y por los demás
dones maravillosos que me has dado. Amen
