PASTORAL DIRECTION
Commandments for Making Friends by Father Ron Rolheiser, OMI
Moses gave us the Ten Commandments. What if Moses were to descend, once
again, from that same mountain with two new tablets of stone, spelling out some rules for
better befriending each other, God, life, and ourselves. Perhaps this second set of commandments might read like this:
1)Befriend humanity … To be human is to be fallible, wounded, scarred, sinful, and living
in a far-from-perfect history, body, family, church. Don’t look for anyone to blame, to sue,
to be angry at. This is called the human condition. Make friends with it.
2) Befriend what’s best in you … If we look out at the world through the prism of what’s
best in us, our jealousy can turn to appreciation and we can again be astonished at others’ goodness. We need to
be better friends with what’s best in us.
3) Befriend those who love you … There are only two potential tragedies in life: To go through life and never love
and to go through life and not express love and affection to those who love us. We need to make better friends with
our friends, to express more readily our affection, our gratitude, our appreciation, and our contrition. Give out a
lot more compliments. Say thank-you constantly.
4) Befriend your own body … Don’t be afraid of your own body, of its goodness, its sexuality, its pleasures, its
tiredness, its limits. It’s the only one you’ve got in any case. Befriend it. Don’t punish it, don’t spoil it, don’t denigrate it. It’s a church, a temple. Give it enough rest, enough exercise, enough discipline, and enough respect.
5) Befriend the other gender … The mothers and the fathers, the wives and the husbands, are fighting. Small wonder the children are suffering. Never trivialize the issues of gender. We are being called to a new level of mutual
respect and mutual sympathy. Make friends with what seems most threatening to you in the other gender.
6) Befriend your father … Father-hunger is one of the deepest hungers in the Western world today. Reconcile with
your own father, with other fathers, and with God the Father. Your father’s blessing will de-constrict your heart.
Forgive him his inadequacy. Acknowledge your hunger.
7) Befriend your mortality … Death comes to us all. Make friends with aging, with wrinkles, with grey hair, with a
body that is no longer young. Accept, let go, grieve, and move on. Bless the young. Share your wisdom with them.
8) Befriend humor … Humor takes us above the tragic. Laughter gives us wings to fly. Thomas More cracked a
joke to the man who was about to behead him. That’s a quality of sanctity that we too often neglect.
9) Befriend your God …The gospel is not so much good advice as it is “good news”, it tells
us how much God loves us, what God has already done for us. God is as proud of us as is
any mother of her children. Peace comes to us when we can enjoy that favor. Befriend the
God who tells us 365 times in scripture not to be afraid. Walk in that confidence.
FEAST OF THE PRESENTATION OF THE LORD
Monday, February 2nd is the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord. It is also r efer r ed to as
Candlemas Day. In the account of St. Luke’s Gospel, Simeon, who was praying in the Temple, when
Mary and Joseph presented Jesus, a practice required by the law, declared that Jesus
“was a light for revelation to the Gentiles and glory for your people Israel”. This
sparked the tradition of blessing enough candles for use in church and homes for the
whole year.
We will bless the Church candles and any candles you may wish to bring
with you to Mass at 8:00 am, Monday in the gathering before Mass. Candles will be
lit and then the prayers of blessing will be said, beginning with sprinkling with holy
water. Then we process down the center aisle and then to our seats carrying the
lighted candles.
On Tuesday, February 3rd, the Feast of St. Blaise following the tradition of our church, throats
will be blessed after the homily at the 8:00 AM Mass.
