Lenten Shrine Pilgrimage—March 5

Gents,

I have reserved Saturday, March 5 for our Shrine trip this year. Details are still being worked out, but the general itinerary will be the same one you are familiar with from years past ( tour, Confessions available, Mass, private prayer/bookstore, Stations of the Cross).

Since we are dealing with ever changing District of Columbia COVID-19 regulations, we will need to decide as we get closer to the trip about lunch at The Dubliner ( I’m fully aware that is probably the reason some of you go on the trip, so I’m hopeful).

We will plan to depart by carpool again if folks are comfortable with that approach. You are of course welcome to meet us up there, people have done that in the past as well. I’m also planning to invite the Men of St. Joseph from St. Edward’s, who have joined us in the past.

Departure will be at 6:30 a.m., from the front parking lot @ St. Bridget, hoping to arrive with time to spare before the 9:00 a.m. tour. The cafeteria is currently closed, so bring your own coffee. We try to get back in time for the Vigil Mass on Saturday, but we are usually cutting it pretty close. Of course, that will depend on whether we have lunch up in DC or not and traffic conditions.

If you want to go on the pilgrimage, please email me at ckoz654@aol.com and include your mobile phone contact info. Also, let me know if you want to be a driver and, if so, how many people you can fit comfortably in your vehicle.

Have a great weekend!

Mike K.

The following will be our points for discussion: 

Chapters 146 to 165 in Practical Theology by Peter Kreeft., but also see Steve’s email below:

 I think I drew the lucky straw for next month’s meeting and discussion about the practical theology of St. Thomas Aquinas. I’ve got sections 146 to 165, and the material is just terrific. We easily could be talking about any of these topics until lunchtime, but of course we only have an hour. To try to focus our attention a little bit I thought I would (arbitrarily) pick and choose some quotes on which we might focus as we go through these pages. In my mind, the quotes are so good that they crystallize a number of critical concepts of our faith which are worthy of our focus and concentrated thought. Of course, if I have missed any of your favorites, just jump in, either in reply to this note or at the meeting. 

Steve

*********************

Sec. 146 Faith and Certainty

“If our faith rests on God’s veracity, it has an absolute and eternally unshakable foundation; if it rests on our own mind, it is as secure as sand.“

Sec. 149 How Unbelief Is A Sin

“St. Thomas says that a pagan who has not heard the faith does not sin for disbelieving it. You can’t believe what you don’t know. We can also extend this to those who have heard only a false, unfair, and misleading version of the Faith (e.g., “Catholicism is superstition “ or “Christianity is the fairytale that God is Super Santa“). They are right to reject this. This is a rejection of false gods, not the true God.“

Sec. 151 Why Lust Is Harmful

“As C.S. Lewis says, ‘when poisons become fashionable they do not cease to kill’ “.

Sec. 154 Presumption

“For example, the presumption that we can by our science and technology make ourselves unlimitedly intelligent and create a Heaven on earth – this presumption naturally begets a despairing disappointment and resentment against the few physical pains that remain in our lives, and the naïve optimism of this presumption begets a pessimism when it fails to deliver. Thus the ‘Enlightenment’ begets the Existentialists’ despair.“

Sec. 156 The Infinity of Charity 

 “Our hearts are finite, but the very capacity to hold love and choose love can be infinitely increased, and therefore our love will be infinitely increased, forever, in Heaven.“

Sec. 161 How To Love Enemies 

 “Third, we can and should go beyond this and love our concrete individual enemies because we are Christians and conduits of the charity of Christ, Who did (and continues to do) exactly that, on the Cross and in the Church.“
