Catholic Reading Wednesday

With many thanks to our wonderful and insightful curator, Karen Celano, you can delve into a faith-related news article each Wednesday! Karen writes:

For anyone following international news during the past few months, this has been a summer of tumult, especially in the Middle East. In Iraq, as President Obama tries to decide whether or not to expand the air campaign against the terrorist organization that calls itself the Islamic State (ISIS), people around the world have been horrified by the execution of American journalist and Catholic James Foley. American Catholics have in particular been moved by Foley’s deep faith and devout prayer life, and some have even called Foley a “martyr.”

However, Alana Massey warns in Religion Dispatches against jumping to this conclusion, questioning whether Foley died for his faith or for his nationality. Furthermore, she argues, turning Foley into a martyr simply plays into ISIS’ desire to turn their acts of terror into a “holy war” and transforms the situation in Iraq into a “battleground. . . for competitive martyrdom.” Other writers have similarly warned us not to see Catholic and Christian leaders’ condemnation of ISIS’ persecution of Christians as a call to a holy war, although some writers seem to feel that taking a morally-based military stance against ISIS at all is tantamount to declaring divine justification for a “Christian crusade against Islam.” Certainly we do not wish to be dragged into a situation of increasing extremism in which each side claims a heaven-ordained high ground, but we should also not allow ISIS’ warped manipulation of religion and morality to intimidate us from insisting on our right to engage in clear theological and moral reasoning in our efforts to oppose their reign of terror. In other words: right remains right, and wrong remains wrong.

Only about 530 miles west of Iraq, Israel and Gaza have also exploded into chaos. While Hamas has been condemned for its extremist ideology and its militant refusal to recognize Israel’s legitimacy, Israel has also been heavily criticized for its handling of the war. As the National Catholic Register reported, various Catholic experts have morally analyzed the situation in Israel and the actions of both sides during the conflict. Some Catholic ethicists, while not denying Israel’s right to exist and to defend itself, have warned that its recent actions are in violation of just war principles, and fear that Israel’s attempts to justify its behavior are based increasingly on a demonization and "dehumanization” of all Gazans whether they are Hamas militants or not. Tragically but not unexpectedly, it is the ordinary citizens of Gaza who bear the brunt of the military conflict – but, unless the economic situation in Gaza is ameliorated, some warn that even those ordinary Gazans might be “radicalized. . . to the point where Hamas. . . look[s] moderate.”

Under the auspices of the Catholic humanitarian aid agency Caritas, some Christians, Jews, and Muslims in Jerusalem have striven to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, but their efforts alone will not be able to end the region’s poverty. Pope Francis, during his visit to the Holy Land in May, reiterated Israel’s right to exist, but also urged for the use of diplomacy and compromise in coming to a two-state solution – a hope which some observers have argued may be increasingly impossible to attain.

Let us pray that the ceasefire announced in Gaza on Tuesday will hold, and that all parties can be graced with the gift of looking past their antagonisms and hatred in order to secure a true and lasting peace.

Get involved this fall: Respect Life at Saint Agnes

How can we be PRO-life every day?

By maintaining a positive attitude towards others,

appreciating the unique person that God has created in each individual,

reaching out in kindness and compassion,

praying for the unborn, disabled and elderly,

and giving alms to the poor, marginalized, and vulnerable in our society.

“Whatever you did for the least of these, you did for Me.”Matthew 25:40

Do you like to Run (or walk?)

Calling all runners and walkers… have you heard of the national organization LIFE Runners? It is the world’s largest Pro-Life Running/Walking Team with chapters in all 50 states and 17 countries! LIFE Runners pray and run (or walk) to defend Life from conception to natural death… All in Christ for Pro-Life! There are two chapters in Massachusetts (Springfield and Still River), but no Boston area chapter yet. Would you be interested in starting a Boston area chapter of LIFE Runners? E-mail SAParishforLife [at] gmail.com or call Eileen Cahill at 781-643-5915. This would be a great way for all ages in our parish and our community to work and pray together to support God’s gift of life.

“All life has inestimable value even the weakest and most vulnerable, the sick, the old, the unborn and the poor, are masterpieces of God’s creation, made in his own image, destined to live forever, and deserving of the utmost reverence and respect.”

-Pope Francis

Confessions on Saturday

Don't forget that Confessions are held at Saint Agnes at 3:00 pm on Saturday!

You might be bemoaning the fact that I have reminded you.  Haha.  Confession has the bad reputation of being a "Catholic Guilt Trip."  But it is not that at all!  The Catholic Church recognizes that in our spiritual journey to the Lord, it's important for us to examine ourselves and truly know who we are -- the good, the bad, and the ugly.  And for the bad and the ugly, we DON'T have to have a guilt trip.  We can recognize these things in our lives, go to confession, and ask the Lord's mercy, forgiveness, and assistance.  And then, we can move on with our lives!  What "self-help" group do you know of that DOESN'T encourage its members to use some self-examination of this type?  Of course they all do, because it is a healthy way to approach problems!  Likewise, in the confessional, Christ offers us freedom and peace once again.

Without the discipline of frequent confession, we can drift away from the reality of our shortcomings. If we are to achieve holiness, we must be honest about our faults and do penance for them. 

— from Lily of the Mohawks, by Emily Cavins

Friday: Feast of the Assumption

Baptism Catechesis TONIGHT!

Have you had a new baby? We wish you many heartfelt congratulations!

Don't forget that baptisms for babies at Saint Agnes are held on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month at 2:00 pm. You must attend Baptismal Catechesis prior to having your child baptized.

Baptism Catechesis happens once a month, and you can go to one tonight! The session begins at 7:00 pm in the Saint Agnes Parish Center at 51 Medford St., Arlington. The meeting usually lasts under an hour.

If you would like to learn a little more about Christian baptism and why the Catholic Church encourages infants to be baptized, you can read about it here.

Baptism is the sacrament of faith. But faith needs the community of believers. It is only within the faith of the Church that each of the faithful can believe. The faith required for Baptism is not a perfect and mature faith, but a beginning that is called to develop. The catechumen or the Godparent is asked: “What do you ask of God’s Church?” The response is: “Faith!” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, #1253)

Parenting is certainly not an easy task: it is filled with difficult decisions, personal setbacks and growth, expanding relationships, disagreements, love, AND forgiveness. We offer you our support and encouragement along this journey, and we invite you warmly into our parish and Christian life!
