First, we make an appointment with God. If you Jacques Philippe have a doctor appointment, a scheduled time out with friends or an appointment at work, you keep those appointments. So too, we make a daily appointment with God, and keep it. (Morning is usually the best time to keep an appointment with God.) Besides taking time for mental prayer, we can also do formal prayer throughout the day. We offer a Hail Mary for those who come to mind, we say aspiration prayers throughout the day (examples: Jesus, have mercy on me a sinner; Jesus, I trust in you; Bless you and praise you Lord; Thank you for…) or we make the sign of the cross over ourselves. Going to weekday Mass could also become part of our regular prayer life. With mental prayer, this takes effort and the willingness to sacrifice part of our day to be in conversation with God. We learn to listen to God and receive His consolation. If you do not know how to enter into mental prayer, join us for a day retreat and learn how. Do a St. Ignatius Spiritual Retreat or study the works of the mystic Saints, such as St. Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, St. Francis, or St. Therese of Lisieux. (List of writings below). Please allow the Church to guide you in true mental prayer and be leery of anything that asks you to ‘empty your mind’, mentions ‘universal energy’, crystals or states the devil does not exist. Each one of us is created to be extraordinary. It is through prayer that we grow in holiness and become the people God created us to be. In becoming who we are created to be, we find joy even in the midst of suffering. We find purpose and self-worth in a busy world that is pulling us in many directions.

By Beth Craig CHILDREN’S TITHING Generosity. What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear that word? I think about an action. Whether it Go in peace, glorifying be people offering prayers, donating food, assisting with a the Lord by your life. project, ultimately something that someone does to give themselves to another. I often find myself saying, “What can I These words, which are used at do to help our parish more?” We are taught that we can give times to end Mass, contain our time, talent, and treasure and I am a firm believer that within them our call as faithful there are times in our lives where we can give one more than Catholics. We are called to the other. Being a wife and a mom of a two-year-old, while glorify God through the way we working full time, my time is limited right now, but I can give live, that we may shine Christ’s my talents. The beautiful thing about being a part of the Body light. This Lent, as we focus on of Christ is that each of us can give something- time, talent, or giving God our hearts through treasure- and we can work together to provide it all. St Paul’s prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, we can invite our children letter to the Hebrews says, “Do not neglect to do good and to to give tithes and offerings alongside us, and light a fire share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.” for them to continue giving even beyond Lent.

We can tithing and generosity began with scripture and prayer. We discern where our time, talent, and treasure should be talked about the story of the widow who glorified God by invested within our parish. Discernment is something that is giving two small coins, the only coins she had (Mark 12). ongoing. A person can discern something right now and then Also, we often start our family prayers with giving thanks after continued prayer and more discernment, discern to God for his many blessings, illustrating that it is God something different. It is ok if your time, talent, and treasure that has provided for us. Lastly, we discussed giving from abilities change over time. This Lent, I invite you to discern the heart, as Saint Paul reminds us: Each of you should where God is calling you.

Is He reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful calling you to give more of your treasure? giver (2 Corinthians 9:6). We then started giving our children a weekly allowance. This quote spoke to me, and I hope it inspires you as well: We decided to give it in the form of coins, so that they can easily visualize how they may want to divide their money, “Do all the good you can, between the church, savings, or spending. We encourage By all the means you can, them to give from their hearts, rather than giving a certain In all the ways you can, amount to Jesus each week. We also ask them to share the In all the places you can, amount of their gift only with Jesus; no one else, including At all the times you can, us, needs to know their sacrifice.

Studying and reading scripture, therefore, is not simply a Kyle Stein, Coordinator of High School Youth Ministry EVANGELIZATION By Brian Freyberger The street preacher. The bible thumper. Max was his name at Indiana State University when I attended in the early 90s. He would pound his bible and yell at the college students as we walked by, telling us we needed to repent or we would be damned to hell. It wasn’t a particularly attractive interaction, and to be honest, our responses were equally unattractive. The word evangelization can conjure up images of this kind of interaction, but there may be more productive ways to evangelize. In fact, it might be as simple as sharing stories of how Christ has impacted your life. While it can be scary in our society today to share our faith, it is essential that we do this. As we think about evangelization, we should consider both the internal movement of our hearts as well as the outward sharing of what Christ is doing in our lives. Both are important, they both build on a relationship with Jesus Christ and His Church, and they are integrally connected. Internal Movement Times of silence in prayer can also be awkward and take effort. But it is through daily prayer and silence that we become sensitive to God’s voice and where He is calling us. This is necessary because we can only share what we have received and this doesn’t happen without our openness to the Holy Spirit working in our lives and through those around us. Outward Sharing At some point, we realize that if we believe what we profess, it is selfish to keep that to ourselves and not share it with others. This doesn’t mean we need to become Max on the street corner. We can, however, look around our lives and see who God has put in our path and the various situations He provides for a good conversation. Each of us has life circumstances and people around us that are unique to us. Have you ever considered this? There may be people God has put in your path and you may be in a unique position to share the faith with them. The world needs to hear and see what the Catholic faith entails. The way we live our lives, the choices we make not only can help draw us closer to God, they provide an example to others of how a Catholic navigates the world. We may not always be perfect. That’s okay too – we can admit our mistakes and maintain a joyful attitude and charitable heart. Our prayers for others and personal prayer life may increase our own desire and courage to share stories of how Christ has impacted our lives. We talk about all kind of things with our friends and acquaintances. Why not drop in a little Jesus talk from time to time? It doesn’t have to be awkward – You are sharing something that only you can share, stories about your life and how Christ has helped you. Our job is not to convince the other person about Christ. That’s the Holy Spirit’s job. What we can do is say “come and see.” Living Evangelization as Church (The Body of Christ) Of course, if we are inviting people to “come and see,” it’s important that our Church family is living the Joy of Heaven and the Love of God that we want them to experience. If they join us at Church or on our social media page and all they see is the same uncharitable bickering that is seen everywhere else, their reaction is likely going to be negative. As Church, as the Body of Christ, we should live the Joy and Love we profess with each other first. We are called to live differently than society and be charitable with each other even when we disagree. So, as we enter into this Lent, maybe now’s the time to reflect on a few things: Where is our heart and our relationship with Jesus Christ? Who in our life has God placed there to hear about Christ’s working in our life? Are we living the Joy and Love we are called to live inside and outside the Church?
