their participation in Partners in Prayer. Over

150 parishioners joined with youth to partner in

prayer as we anticipate the Steubenville Catholic

donations received from parishioners allowed

us to meet our goal of covering the transportation

cost to St. Paul and to help make this an affordable

experience for our youth. We will continue to

pray for all in our parish community. For more information on the Steubenville conference or

Partners in Prayer, please contact Lisa Gaston

KIM FORMALES

Q. & A. OF THE WEEK

3RD SUNDAY OF EASTER

"Jesus himself drew near and walked with them, but their eyes were prevented from

recognizing him." Can you imagine this scene? Jesus comes up next to these two

disciples, walks with them, talks with them, even goes so far as to explain the Scriptures

about him to them, and they still fail to notice who he is. Understandably, they were sad,

"looking downcast" because of Christ's death. Maybe their eyes glumly watched their

feet as they trod along instead of taking in the sights around them. But at some point they must have looked

at their companion's face. Why didn't they recognize Jesus until "he took bread, said the blessing, broke it,

and gave it to them"?

In everything else during their encounter, Jesus had appeared to be just another man. But when he broke

the bread, in fact celebrating the Eucharist, they realized who he was. And then, he "vanished from their sight."

Could it be that the risen Lord wanted to teach his followers about the new way in which he was present? He

may have vanished from sight, but he did not leave them. He was there, as we Catholics profess, through his

real presence in the Eucharist.

We are not so different from the disciples on the road to Emmaus. We may at times become downcast, wishing

that Jesus was with us in a more obvious, traditional way. But in fact, the risen Lord comes to join us every time

we go to Mass, remaining with us through his presence in the Eucharist. We only need the eyes of faith to

believe that it's true. This is not the same as physical sight, to be sure. But he is there. As Jesus himself said

in last Sunday's Gospel, "Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed" (John 20:29).

Q. Is it possible to measure

conversion to determine

if it is genuine or not?

A. A proclamation of a belief is

not a guarantee that one follows it.

I may believe strongly in a healthy

diet, avoiding fats and excess salt.

But you would not know it from the

foods I sample (a few times over!)

at the parish picnic! Beliefs are

proclaimed in both word and deed.

The first measure of conversion is the

one we take of ourselves. When we

claim to be Catholic, followers of

Jesus, and pray the creed at Mass

each week, how well do our deeds

measure up to our words? The

recent debates in political life

show how easy it is to put aside our

"personal" beliefs in favor of some

other belief of a social or political

origin. To say we follow the Lord

and believe in his Gospel means we

think, speak, and act with the mind

and heart of Christ, and are united

to his body, the church.

The same standard would apply

to anyone who claims a conversion

of heart. We know when we are

not true to our beliefs and

commitments. The "Catechism

of the Catholic Church" lists

many ways in which conversion

is accomplished (§ 1435). True

conversion manifests itself in the

way we live, the choices we make,

and, perhaps most importantly,

what we do when we think no one

is watching.

We must

always give a

good example

to encourage

one another.

4 | FOCUS ON THE WORD

© 2013 Liturgical Publications Inc.

That Man Is You is a program for Catholic men

that has been very popular at area parishes. We

would like to start this program here at St. Thomas

More. We are looking for a core group of men

who would be willing to become familiar with

the program and help to launch the program this

fall. If you are interested, please contact Sharon

Hall in the parish office. Information can also be

found at www.paradisusdei.org.

OUR DISHES RUNNETH OVER!! The kitchen is overflowing with dishes

left behind from funeral luncheon

donations or other events here at

church. Please stop in the kitchen to

retrieve your dishes. All dishes remaining after

May 15 will be donated. Thank you for your generous donations.

WORD OF LIFE FOR APRIL 30TH For the Church: May the living and enduring

Word of God untie the faithful in heartfelt care

for all human life; We pray to the Lord:
