Reflection on Today’s Readings

What does hospitality require? When I invite someone for dinner, I need to provide food and drink (or at least order a pizza) and be present to my guest, attentive to her or his needs. The combination of Martha and Mary’s gifts does just that. Mary sits at the feet of Jesus, listening and attentive to their guest. Martha busily provides food and drink. Some scholars say that Mary chose the better part because she accepted her role in providing hospitality, while Martha wanted Jesus to have Mary change and take on Martha’s role. Knowing and accepting our own gifts and those of others is how we choose the better part. Abraham and Sarah also offer hospitality. In their nomadic society this was expected and not to do so could have dire consequences. They still could have chosen not to welcome the three strangers. Abraham sits with them, attentive to their needs. He also provides food for them and waits on them. Sarah, while busy in the tent, is not absent from their awareness. Asking for her, they promise to return and announce that she will have a son. How often we try to be what we are not, or we want someone else to change to do what we are doing, rather than appreciate both their gifts and ours. St. Francis de Sales would write to his friends that they ought to be who they are, and do that well. To be who we are, we must listen to God’s voice, sit at Jesus’ feet, and pay attention to the gifts we have or can develop. Choose the better part. Accept and appreciate those gifts and thereby welcome Christ, however he visits us. “Loving God, giver of all that is good, help me to thank you today by using the gifts you have given me to welcome those people through whom you visit me. Amen.”

Stewardship: Sharing our Time, Talent, and Treasure!

“...I am a minister in accordance with God’s stewardship given to me to bring to completion for you the word of God.” Colossians 1: 25

Believe it or not, we are all called to evangelize—to continuously grow in our knowledge and relationship with Jesus and to share it with others. We may not be called to evangelize like St. Paul, but we should look for opportunities to share our Faith with those closest to us, like our family and friends.

Our Sunday Offering: Sunday, June 19, 2016—$20,688.89 Sunday, June 21, 2015—$20,246.49 Nigerian Missions: $5,651.00

Parishioners are invited to consider electronic giving, particularly if they will be away from the parish.

It is simple and free to enroll. Please visit http://www.sjrc.org and click on the Parish Giving logo.
