Reflection -   Week of September 7, 2025

Question of the Week:


How do I feel challenged by Jesus’ demands of discipleship?
























     It may still be difficult to understand why we can’t have both. Let us consider the question in Wisdom: “Who can conceive what the LORD intends?” (Wisdom 9:13). God’s ways may seem foolish or shocking to our limited imaginations, but we are asked to trust in God, to accept that God’s wisdom is greater than we can conceive.

     Saint Paul asks his convert Philemon to do something radical and selfless: to welcome back Onesimus, who ran away and found Christ, and accept him not as a slave but as a brother. Onesimus, whom Paul trusted to return to Philemon and deliver this letter, could have kept running rather than take the chance that Philemon would ignore the letter and re-enslave him. The fact that this letter not only survived but became part of the Bible implies that Philemon kept it and agreed to Paul’s appeal.

Resumption of Sunday Mass Obligation

"Effective Easter Sunday, April 4 (or as of the Easter Vigil, April 3), I am ending the dispensation from the obligation to attend Sunday Mass, which has been in effect since mid-March 2020. However, anyone who is sick, may have been exposed to anyone with COVID-19, or who has a health condition that would endanger themselves or others by being present in church, continues to be dispensed."

-Bishop Larry Silva
