Today’s readings describe the complexities of trying to live a spiritual life while still living in a world that demands concrete action. Acts tell us about disagreements beginning to emerge in the early Christian communities over divisions of labor. Some people are praying and preaching while others are feeding the hungry. In First Peter we are reminded that Jesus is the cornerstone. Jesus was rejected yet is the very foundation for building the community, and yet he also a stumbling block for those who do not follow the path laid out by his life and works. In John we hear again the contrast of the spiritual and the concrete, of houses with many rooms, of truth and life. Is it surprising that the apostles and we are some-times confused about how to live the life Jesus intended for us?
FINDING REALITY IN FAITHThe readings today describe a faith community struggling with the realities of preaching, teaching, pray-ing, and spreading the word of God while others are concerned about putting food on the table and a roof over their heads. In Acts decisions are made about a division of labor. Some will preach and others will ensure that the community is fed. In First Peter there is talk of spiritual houses, builders, and cor-nerstones, of faith and stumbling blocks. In John, Jesus begins to prepare the apostles for his departure. Jesus talks about his Father’s house but the apostles want concrete answers to their questions. They want to see the Father. They don’t know the way. Jesus’ response is both spiritual and concrete. His answer is both faith and works.
FINDING FAITH IN THE REAL WORLDThe tensions within the readings are tensions we feel every day between our faith and the world in which we live. We stumble over stones that litter the way, over lies that hide the truth, even over the reality of death. We want our faith to be solid, so we can test its permanence and reality. But faith is not concrete. Faith is a living thing, a leap into the unknown. Works are concrete. The works of the apostles are what sustained them even as they struggled with their own faith. We must feed the hungry and shelter the homeless even as we speak to ourselves and others of faith beyond brick and mortar. While we live in a world of harsh realities, we must remember there are realities beyond those we see but not beyond our belief. We know that the faith born of love for others and lived out in caring for the sick and sorrowful, the hungry and homeless, the poor and imprisoned is real.
Today’s Readings: Acts 6:1-7; Ps 33:1-2, 4-5, 18-19; 1 Pt 2:4-9; Jn 14:1-12

DID YOU KNOW? What’s the right age?Many parents find it difficult to determine what re-sponsibilities and privileges are appropriate for chil-dren at different ages. Assessing these issues can be complicated further when considering safety concerns, such as how old a child should be to be allowed to use public restrooms alone. Balancing the child’s emerging independence with possible risks, such as a predator near the restrooms, can be challenging. Whatever the situation, parents can make sure their children are informed about safety concerns and strategies, while they themselves remain vigilant. To request a copy of the VIRTUS© online article “When are Children Old Enough to…?” email [email protected] or call (213) 637-7227.
Happy Mother’s Day!On this Mother’s Day, for all whose mothers and grandmothers are still alive - cherish them today. Honor them and thank them. For all whose mothers have gone home to the Lord, remember them and pray for them. Let us also honor the Mother of the Lord on this day. Her maternal care for Jesus still extends to all those who are His, as members of His Body.

Junipero Serra: The Making of a SaintThe Journey from Padre to Saint and All the Bumps In BetweenMonday, May 22 ~ 7:00pm at Padre Serra Parish, CamarilloHave you ever wondered what it takes to become a saint? Is there any hope for us ordinary people whose weaknesses and failings seem to get in the way of following the teachings and example of Je-sus? What could we learn from the example of Saint Junipero Serra?
Fr. Melvin Jurisich, OFM, will give us some helpful hints about sainthood and holiness as he shares his experiences serving on the committee advocating the canonization of Junipero Serra. Fr. Jurisich, who is currently the director of the Serra Retreat House in Malibu, also was responsible for organizing the canonization ceremony of Saint Junipero Serra in Washington DC in 2015.
