2 “Teach us to give and not to count the cost.” – St. Ignatius of Loyola August 4, 2019

Dear Mary Star of the Sea Parishioners: A blessed August to you all. I hope we are all getting some rest this summer. Looking forward to our upcoming School year. Below is an article explaining our Catholic understanding of praying for the dead. I hope you find it helpful.

Fr. Harrigan - The Pastor

4 Biblical Proofs for Prayers to Saints and for the Dead Among other proofs, the Bible casually assumes that great prophets like Moses and Samuel would be praying for those on earth after they died 1) Praying to Saints (i.e., Asking Them to Intercede): Rich Man and Lazarus The rich man in Jesus’ story asks Abraham to intercede, making two requests: a) relief from his suffering in the “bad” part of Hades / Sheol (Lk 16:24), and 2) to send Lazarus to earth to warn his five brothers to repent, so as not to end up in the same place and state (Lk 16:27-28). Thus we can only conclude that human beings in the afterlife can be prayed to, and that they have the power (delegated through God, using them as vessels or intermediaries) to fulfill the requests: in other words, exactly what the Catholic communion of saints / invocation of saints holds. And it is straight from our Lord Jesus. 2) Praying to Saints: Saul Petitions the Prophet Samuel After the Latter’s Death. Then Samuel said to Saul, “Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?” Saul answered, “I am in great distress; for the Philistines are warring against me, and God has turned away from me and answers me no more, either by prophets or by dreams; therefore I have summoned you to tell me what I shall do.” And Samuel said, “Why then do you ask me, since the LORD has turned from you and become your enemy?” The principle / scenario here is the same as in #1: Samuel could properly be petitioned or, in effect, “prayed to” but he also could refuse the request, and he did so. As Samuel explained, he didn’t question the asking as wrong and sinful, but rather, refused because the request to save Saul was against God’s expressed will: which Samuel also knew about, as a departed saint.

Jeremiah 15:1 Then the LORD said to me, “Though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my heart would not turn toward this people. Send them out of my sight, and let them go! (cf. Heb 12:1; Rev 6:9-10) Again, it’s not that they couldn’t or shouldn’t pray; rather, even their great prayers as powerful intercessors couldn’t accomplish something if it was already against the will of God. If they in fact weren’t praying to God after their deaths, or shouldn’t have, then God wouldn’t have said that they did so; and/or would have condemned it, having brought it up at all in inspired revelation. 3) The Apostle Paul Prayed for the Dead 2 Timothy 1:16-18 May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, for he often refreshed me; he was not ashamed of my chains, [17] but when he arrived in Rome he searched for me eagerly and found me – [18] may the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord on that Day – and you well know all the service he rendered at Ephesus. (cf. 4:19)

4) Jesus and Peter Simultaneously Prayed to Saints and for the Dead Tabitha was a disciple in Joppa who died. Peter prayed to her when he said “Tabitha, rise.” See Acts 9:36- 41. She was dead, and he was addressing her. There is no impenetrable wall between heaven and earth. This is not only praying to the dead, but for the dead, since the passage says that Peter “prayed” before addressing Tabitha first person. Our Lord Jesus does the same thing with regard to Lazarus. He prays for Lazarus and then speaks directly to a dead man (in effect, “praying” to him): “Lazarus, come out” (John 11:43).

When shouldn’t you be your child’s “friend”?

As parents, we want to be close to our children — such closeness is not to be confused with being our children’s friend, though – our children need us to be role models, authority figures AND trusted confidants. This can be a difficult balance to maintain, but we cannot let our de sire to be close to our children blind us to when they need a strong, reliable adult to tell them what’s right and wrong. Parent/child relationships are not built on equality like friendships. Parents have life experience and wisdom that children do not, which gives you more insight and authority in a given situation. Parents also have the re sponsibility to make unpopular decisions in their chil dren’s best interests, and this is an important responsibil ity to help your children grow up. For more information, check out the VIRTUS® article “What makes a friend? Part 3 — When Should a Parent Not be an Older Child’s ‘Friend’?” at http://www.la-archdiocese.org/org/ protect ing/Pages/VIRTUS-Current-Online-Articles.aspx.

Agosto 3-4

Los padres de familia son más que el/la “mejor amigo/a” de su hijo/a

Como padres, queremos estar cerca de nuestros hijos. Sin embargo, tal cercanía no debe confundirse con ser el amigo de nuestros hijos. Nuestros hijos necesitan que sea mos modelos a seguir, figuras de autoridad y personas en los que ellos pueden confiar. Este puede ser un equilibrio difícil de mantener, pero no podemos dejar que nuestro deseo de estar cerca de nuestros hijos nos ciegue cuando necesitan un adulto fuerte y confiable para decirles lo que está bien y lo que está mal. Las relaciones entre padres e hijos no se basan en la igualdad como las amistades. Los padres tienen experiencia de vida y sabiduría que los ni ños no tienen, lo cual les da más información y autoridad en una situación determinada. Los padres de familia tam bién tienen la responsabilidad de tomar decisiones im populares en el mejor interés de sus hijos, y esta es una responsabilidad importante para ayudar a sus hijos a cre cer. Para obtener más información, consulte el artículo de VIRTUS® “What makes a friend? Part 3 — When Should a Parent Not be an Older Child’s ‘Friend’?” (¿Qué hace a alguien un amigo/a?
