SAINT PATRICK ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH

3500 Washington Street . McHenry, IL 60050 www.stpatrickmchenry.org

Called To Be Agents of God’s Love in The World Through the Eucharist, Family & Community

Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time Dear Friends in Christ, As indicated a few weekend’s ago, now that we are operating on a summer schedule, the space for this weekly column will be used for brief moments of Church/Faith teachings. This year we are exploring Catholic Social Teaching. In Christ, Fr. Godwin

Catholic Social Teaching

A Central and Essential Element of our Faith

Principle 2: Call to Family, Community and Participation

The person is not only sacred but also social. How we organize our society—in econom-ics and politics, in law and policy—directly affects human dignity and the capacity of individuals to grow in community. Marriage and the family are the central social institutions that must be supported and strengthened, not undermined. We believe people have a right and a duty to participate in society, seeking together the common good and well-being of all, especially the poor and vulnerable.

Scripture passages: Call to family, community and participation. ∗ Genesis 2:18 It is not good for man to be alone ∗ Genesis 4:8-15 I am my brother’s and sister’s keeper. ∗ Leviticus 25:23-43 What you own belongs to the Lord and is given for the good of all. ∗ Jeremiah 7:5-7 If you act justly with one another, God will dwell in the land. ∗ Micah 6:6-8 Act justly, love kindness, walk humbly with God. ∗ John 15:12-17 This is my commandment: love one another as I have loved you. ∗ Acts 2:43-47 Life among the believers. ∗ Romans 12:4-8 We are one body, individually members one of another. ∗ Hebrews 10:24-25 Rouse one another to love and good works. ∗ James 2:14-17 Our faith is dead if we ignore others in need. ∗ 1 Peter 4:8-11 Serve one another with the gifts you have received. ∗ 1 John 3:16-18 We ought to lay down our lives for one another. ∗ 1 John 4:19-21 Those who love God must love their brothers and sisters.

Teachings from our Tradition - Family "The family is thus an agent of pastoral activity through its explicit proclamation of the Gospel and its legacy of varied forms of witness, namely solidarity with the poor, openness to a diversity of people, the protection of creation, moral and material solidarity with other families, including those most in need, commitment to the promotion of the common good and the transformation of unjust social structures, beginning in the territory in which the family lives, through the practice of the corporal and spiritual works of mercy." (Pope Francis, On Love in the Family [Amoris Laetitia], no. 290, quoting the Final Report of the Synod of Bishops, 10/24/15)

Economic and social policies as well as organization of the work world should be continually evaluated in light of their impact on the strength and stability of family life. The long-range future of this nation is intimately linked with the well-being of families, for the family is the most basic form of human community. Efficiency and competition in the marketplace must be moderated by greater concern for the way work schedules and compensation support or threaten the bonds between spouses and between parents and children. (United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Economic Justice for All, no. 93)

The first and fundamental structure for a "human ecology" is the family . . . founded on marriage, in which the mutual gift of self as husband and wife creates an environment in which children can be born and develop their potentialities, become aware of their dignity and prepare to face their unique and individual destiny. (St. John Paul II, On the Hundredth Year [Centesimus Annus. . . ], no. 39)

Insofar as it is a "small- scale Church," the Christian family is called upon, like the "large- scale Church," to be a sign of unity for the world and in this way to exercise its prophetic role by bearing witness to the Kingdom and peace of Christ, towards which the whole world is journeying. Christian families can do this through their educational activity-that is to say by presenting to their children a model of life based on the values of truth, freedom, justice and love-both through active and responsible involvement in the authentically human growth of society and its institutions, and by supporting in various ways the associations specifically devoted to international issues. (St. John Paul II, The Family in the Modern World [Familiaris Consor-tio. . . ], no. 48)

Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Catholic Social Teaching

A Central and Essential Element of our Faith

Principle 2: Call to Family, Community and Participation

(Continued) Teachings from our Tradition – Community/Participation Local individuals and groups can make a real difference. They are able to instill a greater sense of responsibility, a strong sense of community, a readiness to protect others, a spirit of creativity and a deep love for the land. . .. Social problems must be addressed by community networks and not simply by the sum of individual good deeds. (Pope Francis, On Care for Our Common Home [Laudato Si], nos. 179, 219) People in every nation enhance the social dimension of their lives by acting as committed and responsible citizens, not as a mob swayed by the powers that be. Let us not forget that “responsible citizenship is a virtue, and participation in political life is a moral obligation.” (Pope Francis, The Joy of the Gospel [Evangelii Gaudium], no. 220, quoting United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship, Nov. 2007, no. 13) Subsidiarity respects personal dignity by recognizing in the person a subject who is always capable of giving something to others. (Pope Benedict XVI, Charity in Truth [Caritas in Veritate], no. 57) The primary norm for determining the scope and limits of governmental intervention is the “principle of subsidiarity" cited above. This principle states that, in order to protect basic justice, government should undertake only those initiatives which exceed the capacities of individuals or private groups acting independently. Government should not replace or destroy smaller communities and individual initiative. Rather it should help them contribute more effectively to social well-being and supple-ment their activity when the demands of justice exceed their capacities. These does not mean, however, that the government that governs least, governs best. Rather it defines good government intervention as that which truly "helps" other social groups contribute to the common good by directing, urging, restraining, and regulating economic activity as “the occasion requires and necessity demands". (United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, Economic Justice for All, no. 124) In order that the right to development may be fulfilled by action: (a) people should not be hindered from attaining development in accordance with their own culture; (b) through mutual cooperation, all peoples should be able to become the principal architects of their own economic and social development. (World Synod of Catholic Bishops, Justice in the World [Justica in Mundo], no. 71) But God did not create man as a solitary, for from the beginning “male and female he created them” (Gen. 1:27). Their companionship produces the primary form of interpersonal communion. For by his innermost nature man is a social being, and unless he relates himself to others, he can neither live nor develop his potential. (Second Vatican Council, The Church in the Modern World [Gaudium et Spes], no. 12) Actions to live this principle ∗ Keep in regular contact with an aging relative; take them to appointments, shopping and on outings ∗ Pray regularly as a family, or in a faith sharing community, with prayers for your community, state, nation and world. ∗ Designate one evening a week or one day a weekend for family and friendship activities ∗ Attend municipal council meetings, township meeting or neighborhood meetings ∗ Be a volunteer in your community, a community organization; be a member of a decision-making group such as

pastoral council, school board, or a non-profit board.


Want to be Baptized?

Need to make your First Communion?

Never Confirmed?

WHAT IS IT?

∗RCIA is the normal way for unbaptized persons and those who have been baptized in another Christian tradition to become a Catholic

Sacrament of Marriage: At St. Patrick, couples planning to marry need to meet with the Pastor before a wedding date can be set. Please contact the parish office to setup an initial meeting at least 6 months prior to any requested marriage date.

At least one of the couple, or their parents, must be registered parishioners for at least 6 months and be active participating members of St. Pat-rick Church in order to be married at the church. Both individuals must be at least 19 years of age.
