ROONEY TUNES:
REJOICE AND BE GLAD! Gaudete et Exsultate (GE) Pope Francis’ most recent apostolic exhortation is a radical call to holiness in today’s world. This apostolic exhortation is a major work of deep theological thinking about holiness. It is a faith-filled pitch for promoting the desire for holiness; Francis reminds us that holiness is not about individual moral per-fection or the approval of others. The pope notices: “Not everything a saint says is completely faithful to the Gospel” – we need to reflect the totality of a saint’s life. Holiness is not about being a special kind of person or living apart from the world but about being a good next-door neighbor. Holiness is finding a more perfect way of doing what we are already doing, and doing the ordinary in an extraordinary way. The Holy Father reminds us that holiness needs times of quiet, solitude and silence but “ it is not healthy to love silence while fleeing interaction with others.” Are there mo-ments when you place yourself quietly in the Lord’s presence, when you calmly spend time with him, when you bask in his gaze? Do you let his fire inflame your heart? Unless you let him warm you more and more with his love and tender-ness, you will not catch fire (GE 151). I’m sure that most of us, at some stage of our life, has longed to be ‘holy’ – what we thought ‘holy’ meant at that stage of our life. In 1943 the mystic Simone Weil pre-dicted a “new holiness demanded by the present moment, a fresh spring and inven-tion.” Pope Francis now promotes this ‘new holiness’ by seeing the inclusive
mystery of “small everyday things”. “Do not be afraid of holiness” Francis tells us. May each of us ask God for the gift of see-ing the possibility of holiness in the events of our daily life! THE ASSUMPTION OF OUR LADY: This Wednesday, 15th August, the Church calls us to celebrate the feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The feast is one of the few holy days of obligation left on the Church’s calendar. Although the title of the feast has Our Lady as its focus, the celebration is also about a promise. The feast is a sign of the promise that lies before each one of us. As the Lord Jesus ascended to the Father, so did Mary after the completion of her earthly journey. Mary, the model believer, part of the Body of Christ, has followed where Christ our head has gone before us. Where Christ has gone we too hope to follow. Our Lady’s Assumption into heaven is a clear sign of what lies ahead of each one of us. There are certain aspects of Mary’s life that the Bible state explicitly: the virgin birth (Lk. 1:34-35). Other aspects of Mary’s life are implicit in the biblical text but have always been held and believed by the Church such as the Immaculate Conception and the Assumption. The truth of these implicit facts is no less important for our understanding of the gospel. Implicit details are often more important to a narrative because they show us what the writer of the gospel takes for granted. While in the most holy Virgin the Church has already reached that perfection whereby she is without spot or wrinkle, the followers of Christ still strive to increase in holiness by conquering sin.

Unleash The Gospel
And so they turn their eyes to Mary who shines forth to the whole community of the elect as the model of virtues….seeking after the glory of Christ, the Church becomes more like her exalted type, and continually progresses in faith, hope and charity, seeking and doing the will of God in all things. (Vat. 2; Lumen Gentium 65) ARCHDIOCESAN WEBSITE: I know that some of us spend way too much time on You Tube watching kittens and pups at play or how to lose twenty pounds in fifteen days! If you get bored watching that stuff, why not click over to aod.org and take a look at the Archdiocesan website. It’s worth taking a look at. Needless to say you’ll get no help getting rid of those twenty pounds but you might come across something to interest you. There’s a world of information: Our Archdiocese; Being Catholic; Parishes; Schools and Ministries. You’ll also find lots of other features, including Synod ’16; Catholic Charities of Southeast Michigan (CCSEM); Blessed Sacrament Cathedral; Sacred Heart Seminary; Protecting God’s Children; Catechist Formation Sessions; Sacramental Records
Requests; Job Listings and articles from the Michigan Catholic (the archdiocesan bi-weekly newspaper). Now, if that’s not enough to whet your appetite - I give up! SILENCE: Recently I finished reading a book by the Augustinian friar Benignus O’ Rourke: Finding Your Hidden Treasure (Darton, Longman & Todd 2010). The sub title of book is The Way of Silent Prayer – that’s the part that grabbed my attention. So often in my own prayer I babble on and on, God seldom gets a chance to say anything – I’m too busy talking. Father Benignus reminded me: God is always at work in the hearts of those who are searching for him. As we hand ourselves to silence we are allowing the Lord to work in us. God is moving in the very depths of our being…… May each of us give God our silence. Stephen Rooney
3.4 Good and Bad Habits – part 6
A spirit of cooperation. There can be no competition in the body of Christ, because we have one Lord and one united purpose (Eph 4:1-6). The whole Archdiocese has embarked on the new evange-lization together, and any victory for one is a victory for all. As Christ's apostles had to put aside rivalry and learn to work as a team (Lk 9:46-48), so we are called to a spirit of generous cooper-ation and sharing of resources.
Confidence in God. St. Thérèse teaches us the way of spiritual childhood, which is the way of simplicity and utter confidence in God. We give the Lord the best of our effort, but it is He who will bring the increase. We can trust in him, for the renewal of the Archdiocese of Detroit is not our work but His divine work in which we are cooperating. "Therefore, neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who causes the growth" (1 Cor 3:7).
Reflective Question: Do I trust God wholeheartedly with all that I am and all that the Diocese can become?

Daily Readings & Reflections
August 12th NINETEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY
TIME Food for the road
We cherish those moments when nour-ishment comes as if heaven-sent.
Trapped at our desks for the evening, someone thoughtfully orders take-out. When we’re in mourning, caring neigh-
bors drop off casseroles. We’re tempted to graze self-pityingly on the cupboard’s
junk food, when a friend calls with an invitation to a real meal. Sometimes the sustenance isn’t food at all, but warmth, comfort, understanding, or forgiveness. Angels are everywhere on duty, supply-ing what’s needed in the world’s dark
corners. Is it your turn to be that angel? Who might be hungry today?
John 6:41-51 (116). “The angel ordered, ‘Get up and eat, else
the journey will be too long for you!’ ”
August 13th MEMORIAL OF PONTIAN, POPE, AND
HIPPOLYTUS, PRIEST, MARTYRS Mom, what’s an antipope?
When differences arise, popes, like fami-ly members, choose sides. In the third century, a Roman priest, Hippolytus,
took exception to the teachings of the pope and gathered followers to his side. He was the first of what became known
as the antipopes, those leaders who gained a significant following over and against legitimate popes. He lasted 10 years until, with new Pope Pontian in place, the Roman emperor had both
Pontian and Hippolytus executed, just to make sure he got the right one. Tradition holds that the two were reconciled be-fore they died and thus became today’s martyr saints together. Conflict and be-trayal are part of every human life, but reconciliation is the way of true faith. With whom can you reconcile today?
Today's readings: Ezra 1:2-5, 24-28c; Matthew 17:22-27
(413). “The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into human hands, and they will kill him, and on the third day he will be raised.”
August 14th
MEMORIAL OF MAXIMILIAN KOLBE, PRIEST, MARTYR
A witness to the end Franciscan Maximilian Kolbe is best
known for the way he died: He offered his life in the Auschwitz Nazi death camp in exchange for another prisoner, a hus-
band and father. But he led an incredibly active life before then. He founded a society for people consecrated to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary (still in exist-ence), a Franciscan community near
Warsaw that in 12 years grew from 18 to 650 friars, and a publishing house that
produced religious booklets and a news-paper and monthly magazine with circu-lations of 230,000 and more than 1 mil-lion respectively. He even established a missionary center in Nagasaki, Japan in 1930. His hard work reached its fulfill-
ment in his martyrdom. Let the dedica-tion of this saint serve as an example in
your life. Today's readings:
Ezra 2:8—3:4; Matthew 18:1-5, 10, 12-14 (414).
“It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not fail you or
forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”
August 15th
SOLEMNITY OF THE ASSUMPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
God is great! Some Polish Americans still bring garden flowers to church today, what’s left of a customary blessing of the harvest. It is the time of killer tomatoes leaping off
the vines and entirely too many zucchini, and such abundance can remind us that being just what you are, to the fullest,
gives glory to God. Mary’s Magnificat can be translated “My being magnifies the Lord,” and as Rabbi Abraham Heschel
said, “Just to be is a blessing.” Your sim-ple existence, let alone your bearing fruit
that lasts, gives glory to the God of the harvest.
“My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.”
August 16th
MEMORIAL OF STEPHEN OF HUNGARY Advice for the Christian leader
Saint Stephen of Hungary (969-1038), king of the Magyars, gave the following
advice to his son: “Be merciful to all who are suffering. . . . Be patient with every-one. . . . Be strong lest prosperity lift you up too much or adversity cast you down. . . . Be gentle so that you may never op-pose justice. Be honorable so that you may never voluntarily bring disgrace
upon anyone. All these virtues . . . make up the royal crown, and without them no
one is fit to rule here on earth or attain the heavenly kingdom.” In your leader-ship roles at home and work, commit to
helping others feel the presence of Christ by living the virtues Stephen outlines.
Today's readings: Ezra 12:1-12; Matthew 18:21—19:1
(416). "Lord, if my brother sins against me, how
often must I forgive him?”
August 17th Traveling mercies
If you have flown recently you probably have a gripe or two to add to the large pile of complaints of missing luggage,
brusque employees, and long lines. But put it all in perspective: On this day in
1807 people were celebrating the first-ever commercial steamboat service,
which carried passengers 150 miles—in 32 hours! Step back even further, when the first Christian disciples trekked for days, weeks, and months to bring the Good News to lands unknown. While we’d all appreciate a little less time in line and a little more leg room, make
sure you’re attentive to opportunities to be kind, generous, and gentle with your fellow passengers along the way. As the poet John Milton put it, “They also serve
who only stand and wait.” Today's readings:
Ezra 16:1-15, 60, 63 or 16:59-63; Matthew 19:3-12 (417).
“I will remember the covenant I made with you.”
August 18th
MEMORIAL OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
Stay mindful all week According to the church’s Directory on Popular Piety and the Liturgy, the tradi-tional Saturday memorial of Mary is a
“remembrance of the maternal example and discipleship of the Blessed Virgin Mary,” a “prelude and introduction to the celebration of Sunday,” and a “sign
that the Virgin Mary is continuously pre-sent and operative in the life of the
church.” It’s tempting to compartmental-ize religion to one day a week. The
steadfastness of Mary is a reminder that religion belongs in your life every day.
Today's readings: Ezra 18:1-10, 13b, 30-32; Matthew 19:13
-15 (418). "Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of heav-
en belongs to such as these."
