Real Compassion

When we hear about the compassion

that Jesus felt for the people around

Him. We are reminded of the great

mercy and love that our God has for us.

He loved us enough to send His Son to

teach us how to live, pray, love, be

compassionate and sacrifice.

If we are going to lead lives in imitation of Christ, then we need to feel

compassion. Compassion is a very

deep, real and moving response to the

suffering or plight we see in others,

moving us to try to do something to alleviate their pain. It may be

prayer, donations, getting involved, or simply reaching out.

This is easily felt the most when we have experienced the pain,

particularly ourselves. For instance, if we have gone through the

pain of losing a loved one, we will know what a family member,

neighbor or friend may feel when they experience loss. In knowing this, we may be better equipped to comfort someone in distress from loss.

Jesus may not have gone through everything we have or will go

through, when He walked on this earth as a human being, but as

God, He feels everything we feel just like we feel it, so He can be

genuinely compassionate. He has reassured us through the Gospels that He is there with us through the storms of life, and if He

does not calm the storm, He will calm us. St. Paul reminded us

that ¡°Praise be to God, who comforts us in our troubles, so that

we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.¡±

We all suffer, but we can use our suffering for the good of others.

We are grateful for Jesus who showed us how to couple faith,

love and compassion.

Take care of yourselves and each other,

Deacon Jeff Hofacker

Weekly Stewardship Thought

Today¡¯s readings are about being chosen and

sent. The prophet Amos was chosen by the

Lord and sent to use his talents for the people

of God. The Gospel recounts the story of the

sending of the twelve. In the second reading,

St. Paul reminds us that we, too, are chosen.

For what have I been chosen? To whom have

I been sent?

the Catholic parishes in Antigo. We hear in our gospel today, ¡°Jesus

summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and gave

them authority over unclean spirits.¡± (Mark 6) Imagine these two dioceses; Green Bay and Sivagangai, as disciples walking on the way. Let us

generously share the fruits of our faith in Christ Jesus: Sivagangai sharing their priest with us, and Green Bay, sharing funds to help educate the

poor and orphan children in Sivagangai. Gifts are still being accepted. Checks can be payable to

the parish, with ¡°mission appeal¡± in the memo line. You can use the ¡°Missionary Cooperation

Plan¡± envelope or mark any envelope ¡°Missionary Cooperation Plan.¡±

Peace,

Father Walter
