From the Desk of Fr. Tom…

Dear Friends in Jesus Christ… The readings for this Sunday are about God’s mercy, the necessity for trusting Faith and the need for the forgiveness of sins. The opening prayer addresses the Father as "God of everlasting Mercy." In the Responsorial Psalm (Ps 118), we repeat several times, “His mercy endures forever!” God revealed His mercy, first and foremost, by sending His only-begotten Son to become our Savior and Lord by His suffering, death and Resurrection. Divine mercy is given to us also in each celebration of the Sacraments, instituted to sanctify us. The first reading tells us how the early Church grew every day because of the acts of mercy and sharing, the sacrificial agápe love practiced by the early Christians. In the second reading, St. Peter glorifies God, the Father of Jesus Christ, for showing us His mercy by granting Resurrection from the dead and glorious Ascension into Heaven to His Son, Jesus, thus giving us the assurance of our own resurrection. Today’s Gospel vividly reminds us of how Jesus instituted the Sacrament of Reconciliation, a sacrament of Divine Mercy. The risen Lord gave his Apostles the power to forgive sins; “Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained". Presenting the doubting Thomas’ famous profession of Faith, “My Lord and my God,” the Gospel illustrates how Jesus showed his mercy to the doubting apostle and emphasizes the importance of Faith. On this divine Mercy Sunday I would like to share with you a beautiful story of St. Pope John Paul II. Edith Zierer, a Holocaust survivor, recalls how Karol Wojtyla, who later became Pope John Paul II, carried her to safety after she fled a Nazi concentration camp when she was 13 years old. Polish-born Zierer was 13 when she ran away from the Nazi camp at Czestochowa in Poland after the Soviet army liberated it in January 1945, five months before World War II ended in Europe. She was heading towards her hometown in Poland to find her parents, who, she would later learn, had died in the Holocaust. Exhausted, she reached a train station and sat there for two days without food or water while people ignored her. "Suddenly, there he was," Zierer said, referring to Wojtyla, the seminarian, in his priestly robe. "He brought me some tea and two pieces of bread with cheese and then carried me to a train carriage. He sat with me and put his cloak on me because it was freezing. We came to Krakow and then I ran away because people started to ask why a priest was walking with a Jewish girl." After spending, a few years in orphanages in Poland and France, Zierer emigrated from Europe to British-mandated Palestine, where she later married and bore a son and daughter in what became Israel. She now has five grandchildren. She wrote to Wojtyla after he became Pope in 1979, saying she was the little girl he had saved at the train station in Poland decades ago. After a correspondence ensured, the Pontiff invited her to the Vatican in 1998. She last met him in 2000, when he visited Israel on a millennium pilgrimage and met several survivors at the VadVashem Holocaust museum. She said she and the Pope kept up their correspondence, writing mostly during Christmas and before birthdays. "I received a letter from him last year and I knew it was the last," she said. "He included a picture from his private collection and his handwriting was very shaky. I wrote to thank him for the memory that never left." Edith Zierer, 84, mourned the death of her former savior, and remembered the warm look in the seminarian Karol Wojtyla's eyes in the railway station years ago and God’s mercy expressed in his actions. "He was a kindred spirit in the greatest sense -- a man who could save a girl in such a state, freezing, starving and full of lice, and carry her to safety," she told Reuters. "I would not have survived had it not been for him.". Pope John Paul made mercy the core of his priesthood. He saw mercy as a light against darkness. And has the world known darker times than when the Nazis and Communists oppressed millions of people? On April 27, 2014, Divine Mercy Sunday, John Paul II, along with Pope John XXIII, was officially recognized as a Saint. It is no accident that Pope St. John Paul who was instrumental in spreading the observance of Divine Mercy Sunday was canonized on that Feast. Let us approach God for his divine mercy through the sacraments of confession and Eucharist and through our kindness let us share it with our family and friends.

God Bless You, Fr. Tom

Saint Gianna Beretta Molla (Oct. 4, 1922- April 28, 1962) Patron Saint of Physicians, Mothers and Unborn Children—Feast Day: April 28

Her parents died when she was twenty, one of thirteen children. She began study at the medical school of the University of Milan and transferred to the University of Pavia where, in 1949, she earned a doctorate in medicine specializing in pediatrics. She opened a clinic in 1950 and had many patients. She dedicated herself to charitable work among older people. In addition, she continued to be a member of a Catholic Action Group. She organized talks and retreats, hikes and social events and was very successful in reaching out to young people. She would also aid the St. Vincent de Paul Society in their outreach to the poor and less fortunate. She considered becoming a medical missionary to offer gynecological services to poor women in Brazil where her brother was a priest. But chronic health made this an impossible dream. When she met Pietro Molla, an engineer, and was discerning God’s will for her whether to marry and start a family, she asked a confessor’s advice. He answered, “If every good Catholic girl became a nun, there would be no Christian mothers.” Pietro and Gianna married on September 24, 1955. Gianna was 33. There first three children were: Pierluigi (1954), Mariolina (1957), Laura (1959). Gianna would lose two more babies before birth. Then in 1961, she became pregnant again. After two months she began to experience pain at which time the doctor found a fibroma (tumor) in her uterus. The doctor gave three choices: an abortion, a complete hysterectomy, or the removal of the fibroma alone. She told the doctor that “if you have to choose between my life and that of the baby, you must save the baby’s life.” The Church does not allow abortion but there is a principle of double effect that is allowed whereby she would undergo the hysterectomy which would cause her unborn child’s death as an unintended consequence. Gianna opted for the removal of the fibroma. So their fourth child was born, Gianna Emanuela, by Caesarean section but Gianna continued to experience pain. She asked Pietro to take her home so she could die in her own room. A week later she died. Her daughter Gianna Emanuela would become a doctor of pediatrics and one day would attend her mother’s canonization. Gianna Beretta Molla was canonized by Pope St. John Paul II on May 16, 2004. The miracle that led to her beatification involved a Protestant woman, Lucia Sylvia Cirilio and that which led to her canonization was a miracle involving Elizabeth Compariani. Both women were from Brazil. Gianna inspired the Gianna Center in New York, the first pro-life Catholic healthcare center for women in New York. There is also a Saint Gianna’s Maternity Home in Warsaw, North Dakota.
