Every generation of Americans needs to know that freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought.

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ: openness to the Lord – a willingness to let the Lord transform our lives – should produce a renewed spiritual and missionary vitality among American Catholics. Jesus Christ is the answer to the question posed by every human life, and the love of Christ compels us to share that great good news with everyone. We believe that the Death and Resurrection of Christ reveal the true meaning of human existence; therefore nothing that is genuinely human fails to find an echo in our hearts. Christ died for all, so we must be at the service of all. "The Spirit God has given us is no cowardly spirit... Therefore, never be ashamed of your testimony to our Lord" (2Tm. 1: 7-8). Thus wrote Saint Paul to Timothy, almost two thousand years ago; thus speaks the Church to American Catholics today. Christian witness takes different forms at different moments in the life of a nation. Sometimes, witnessing to Christ will mean drawing out of a culture the full meaning of its noblest intentions, a fullness that is revealed in Christ. At other times, witnessing to Christ means challenging that culture, especially when the truth about the human person is under assault. America has always wanted to be a land of the free. Today, the challenge facing America is to find freedom’s fulfillment in the truth: the truth that is intrinsic to human life created in God’s image and likeness, the truth that is written on the human heart, the truth that can be known by reason and can therefore form the basis of a profound and universal dialogue among people about the direction they must give to their lives and their activities. One hundred thirty years ago, President Abraham Lincoln asked whether a nation "conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal" could "long endure". President Lincoln’s question is no less a question for the present generation of Americans. Democracy cannot be sustained without a shared commitment to certain moral truths about the human person and human community. The basic question before a democratic society is: "how ought we to live together?" In seeking an answer to this question, can society exclude moral truth and moral reasoning? Can the Biblical wisdom which played such a formative part in the very founding of your country be excluded from that debate? Would not doing so mean that America’s founding documents no longer have any defining content, but are only the formal dressing of changing opinion? Would not doing so mean that tens of millions of Americans could no longer offer the contribution of their deepest convictions to the formation of public policy? Surely it is important for America that the moral truths which make freedom possible should be passed on to each new generation. Every generation of Americans needs to know that freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought. How appropriate is Saint Paul’s charge to Timothy! "Guard the rich deposit of faith with the help of the Holy Spirit who dwells within us" (2Tm. 1: 14). That charge speaks to parents and teachers; it speaks in a special and urgent way to you, my brother Bishops, Successors of the Apostles. Christ asks us to guard the truth because, as he promised us: "You will know the truth and the truth will make you free" (Jn. 8: 32). Depositum custodi! We must guard the truth that is the condition of authentic freedom, the truth that allows freedom to be fulfilled in goodness. We must guard the deposit of divine truth handed down to us in the Church, especially in view of the challenges posed by a materialistic culture and by a permissive mentality that reduces freedom to license. But we Bishops must do more than guard this truth. We must proclaim it, in season and out of season; we must celebrate it with God’s people, in the sacraments; we must live it in charity and service; we must bear public witness to the truth that is Jesus Christ. Catholics of America! Always be guided by the truth – by the truth about God who created and redeemed us, and by the truth about the human person, made in the image and likeness of God and destined for a glorious fulfillment in the Kingdom to come. Always be convincing witnesses to the truth. "Stir into a flame the gift of God" that has been bestowed upon you in Baptism. Light your nation – light the world – with the power of that flame! Amen.

The ladies of the

parish are invited to a morning of prayer on

Wednesday, July 7, 2021 from 10:00 a.m. until noon in the Chapel.

The day includes adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, preached meditations, time for private prayer, and the opportunity for confession.

Cada generación de estadounidenses necesita saber que la libertad no consiste en hacer lo que nos gusta, sino en tener derecho a hacer lo que debemos.

Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo: la apertura al Señor, la voluntad de dejar que el Señor transforme nuestras vidas, debe producir una renovada vitalidad espiritual y misionera entre los católicos estadounidenses. Jesucristo es la respuesta a la pregunta que plantea toda vida humana, y el amor de Cristo nos impulsa a compartir esa gran buena noticia con todos. Creemos que la Muerte y Resurrección de Cristo revelan el verdadero significado de la existencia humana; por lo tanto, nada que sea genuinamente humano deja de encontrar eco en nuestros corazones. Cristo murió por todos, por eso debemos estar al servicio de todos. "El Espíritu que Dios nos ha dado no es un espíritu cobarde... Por tanto, nunca te avergüences de tu testimonio a nuestro Señor" (2Tm. 1: 7-8). Así escribió San Pablo a Timoteo, hace casi dos mil años; así les habla la Iglesia a los católicos estadounidenses de hoy. El testimonio cristiano toma diferentes formas en diferentes momentos de la vida de una nación. A veces, dar testimonio de Cristo significará extraer de una cultura el significado pleno de s us más nobles intenciones, una plenitud que se revela en Cristo. En otras ocasiones, testificar de Cristo significa desafiar esa cultura, especialmente cuando la verdad sobre la persona humana está siendo atacada. Estados Unidos siempre ha querido ser una tierra de libres. Hoy, el desafío que enfrenta Estados Unidos es encontrar la plenitud de la libertad en la verdad: la verdad que es intrínseca a la vida humana creada a imagen y semejanza de Dios, la verdad que está escrita en el corazón humano, la verdad que puede ser conocida por la razón y puede forman, por tanto, la base de un diálogo profundo y universal entre las personas sobre el rumbo que deben dar a sus vidas y sus actividades. Hace ciento treinta años, el presidente Abraham Lincoln preguntó si una nación "concebida en libertad y dedicada a la proposición de que todos los hombres son creados iguales" podría "durar mucho tiempo". La pregunta del presidente Lincoln no es menos una pregunta para la actual gene-ración de estadounidenses. La democracia no puede sostenerse sin un compromiso compartido con ciertas verdades morales sobre la persona humana y la comunidad humana. La pregunta básica ante una sociedad democrática es: "¿cómo debemos vivir juntos?" Al buscar una respuesta a esta pre-gunta, ¿puede la sociedad excluir la verdad moral y el razonamiento moral? ¿Se puede excluir de ese debate la sabiduría bíblica que jugó un papel tan formativo en la fundación misma de su país? ¿No significaría eso que los documentos fundacionales de Estados Unidos ya no tienen un contenido definitorio, sino que son solo el vestuario formal de una opinión cambiante? ¿No significaría eso que decenas de millones de estadounidenses ya no podrían ofrecer la contribución de sus convicciones más profundas a la formación de la política pública? Sin duda, es importante para Estados Unidos que las verdades morales que hacen posible la libertad se transmitan a cada nueva generación. Cada generación de estadounidenses necesita saber que la libertad no consiste en hacer lo que nos gusta, sino en tener derecho a hacer lo que debemos. ¡Cuán apropiado es el encargo de San Pablo a Timoteo! "Guarda el rico depósito de la fe con la ayuda del Espíritu Santo que habita en nosotros" (2Tm. 1:14). Ese cargo habla a padres y maestros; les habla de manera especial y urgente, hermanos míos obispos, sucesores de los apóstoles. Cristo nos pide que guardemos la verdad porque, como nos prometió: "conoceréis la verdad y la verdad os hará libres" (Jn 8, 32). Depositum custodi! Debemos guardar la verdad que es condición de la auténtica libertad, la verdad que permite que la libertad se cumpla en el bien. Debemos cuidar el depósito de la verdad divina que nos ha sido transmitida en la Iglesia, especialmente en vista de los desafíos que plantea una cultura materialista y una mentalidad permisiva que reduce la libertad a la licencia. Pero los obispos debemos hacer más que proteger esta verdad. Debemos proclamarlo, a tiempo y fuera de tiempo; debemos celebrarlo con el pueblo de Dios, en los sacramentos; debemos vivirlo en caridad y servicio; debemos dar testimonio público de la verdad que es Jesucristo. ¡Católicos de América! Guíese siempre por la verdad, por la verdad acerca de Dios que nos creó y redimió, y por la verdad acerca de la persona humana, hecha a imagen y semejanza de Dios y destinada a un glorioso cumplimiento en el Reino venidero. Sea siempre un testigo convincente de la verdad. "Revuelve en una llama el don de Dios" que te ha sido otorgado en el Bautismo. ¡Enciende tu nación, enciende el mundo, con el poder de esa llama! Amén.

O God, who in the abasement of your Son have raised up a fallen world,

fill your faithful with holy joy, for on those you have rescued from

slavery to sin you bestow eternal gladness.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
