Dear Padre May 26, 2019 Why is celibacy mandatory for Catholic priests? Some propose making celibacy op onal. For some priests it’s too heavy a burden. They contend that, if made op onal, it could a ract more men to the priesthood, especially during a me of priest short-ages. A er all, celibacy isn’t essen al to the or-dained ministry. During the first millennium, many priests, and even bishops, were married. Jesus him-self is the basis for priestly celibacy. His celibacy was a radical expression of his commitment to work for the kingdom. Instead of marrying and raising a family, he dedicated his life to raising up a commu-nity that would become God’s family—interrelated not by blood, but by one faith, bap sm, and Spirit. Celibacy isn’t an end unto itself but a gi for a ain-ing an end—service to God’s kingdom. Instead of raising biological families, priests form a larger fam-ily—the spiritual family of the Church at the parish level. Instead of fathering a few children, they be-come spiritual fathers to the flock that Christ en-trusts to them. Hence, priests are addressed as “Father.” “Celibacy is a sign of this new life to the service of which the Church’s minister is consecrat-ed; accepted with a joyous heart celibacy proclaims the reign of God” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1579). Priests must always remember their vows: to dedicate their whole lives to God and the kingdom, to forego marriage and family so they can build up the spiritual family of God that is the Church. —Fr.

Marriage Encounter Weekend

June 1-2, 2019 Holiday Inn, Ontario, CA Spiritual Director Rev. Bill Delaney . Sponsor Open in Spirit to God San Bernardino (Bukas Loob Sa Diyos) The Marriage Encounter weekend is for couples who are sacramentally married in the Catholic Church. The Marriage Encounter is an invaluable experience of renewing the marriage relationship. It enriches the process of communication between husband and wife. God has a special plan for you during this Marriage Encounter weekend. Living in today’s busy world leaves us with very little time to appreciate the gift of each other that we have received in marriage; the gift given to us by God. God is calling you this weekend to spend some quality time with Him. Wherever you are in your marriage, this weekend is meant to enhance and strengthen your relationship as a couple with God as the center of your marriage. “…Don't be afraid, for I have redeemed you; I am calling you by your name; you are mine.” (Isaiah 43:1) Applications are available in the front of the church and in the parish office. You may also email us for an application at OpenInSpiritToGod@gmail.com
