The Archdiocese of Chicago is committed to protecting children, healing victims, and accountability: heal.archchicago.orgReflections from Father Derek
As we continue to reflect on living out the New Evangelization, we remember that
the content of the evangelization is not new. Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday,
today, and forever (Heb. 13:8). Rather, its priority is how we can renew sharing Him;
new in ardor, new in method and new in expression.
• Our ardor regards our passion or energy for the Catholic faith. Aristotle said
that people only really listen to an excited speaker. Think of Father Tim
when he preaches… does it look like he just got out of bed? Where is your
energy for the Catholic faith? What needs to be done that you might attract
those who need God today but don’t know where to find Him?
• Our method regards how we go about living out our relationship with God
and with each other. As previously mentioned, Catholicism was at one
point so embedded into particular cultures that people participated in
processions, novenas, and even attending Mass without so much as
reflecting on their import. “That’s just what we do” was the mindset of
most. Today, our method must first develop relationships of trust, then
must consider the particularities of the person’s background (their personal
philosophy of life, their openness to religious dialogue), and finally must
focus on the universal human need for love and on Christ as the answer to
this need.
• Our expression regards the ways we share the faith. Historically, the faith was
transmitted through attending talks or reading books. Today, the internet
and phones have revolutionized the way evangelization is done. There are
prayer apps on the phone and authors and speakers use YouTube, Twitter,
and Facebook to bring people the message of Jesus Christ near and far.
Modern day evangelization needs renewal in order to be effective.
The New Evangelization’s focus on ardor, method, and expression gets to the core of
how we as Catholics must adapt to the changing world. We seek to be set on fire so
that we might spread the fire of God’s love to those around us. God needs us to be
His witnesses in our families, among our friends, and online now more than ever.
Sincerely yours in Christ,
Fr. Derek HoPondering Priesthood
Thank you for all of your prayers and support these past few weeks leading up to my
ordination, and even over the past number of years. My ordination was a truly memorable
event and very renewing spiritually. As I begin my diaconate ministry, I look to these notable
deacon saints in our Catholic Tradition:
St. Stephen (1st Century AD): Hailed as the “proto-martyr” in our tradition, the Feast of St.
Stephen is celebrated on December 26. Stephen was one of the original seven deacons, along
with Philip. These seven men were ordained to serve at table while the apostles dedicated
themselves to prayer and the Word (cf. Acts 6:2-5). Stephen was ultimately stoned to death
outside Jerusalem, at the direction of Saul, who would eventually become Paul and write a
majority of the New Testament letters. Before Stephen died, he called out, “Lord, do not hold
this sin against them” (Acts 7:60). By celebrating the feast of St. Stephen the day after the birth
of Jesus, we see that Christ came so we may have life, and share in eternity with him.
St. Philip (1st Century AD): One of the seven original deacons ordained in Acts 6, he is
known for preaching to the Ethiopian eunuch and opening the scriptures to this person and
baptizing their whole family (cf. Acts 8:26-40). Little else is known about Philip, other than his
preaching in Samaria and settling in Caesarea. We see the role of the deacon as one who opens
the scriptures so others may encounter Christ as was done for the Ethiopian.
St. Lawrence (225-258): Lawrence was one of the seven deacons of Rome; and in 258, the
Emperor Valerian sought to persecute Christians in Rome. Being a deacon, a public witness of
the gospel through charitable works, it was difficult to hide when being sought out. After
being brought in front of Valerian, who asked for all of the treasures of the Church, Lawrence
was put to death on a gridiron for bringing the poor and outcast to the emperor, saying that
the poor are the treasures of the Church. As he was being burned alive, Lawrence wittingly
said, “I'm well done on this side. Turn me over!” We see in St. Lawrence that ministry is care
for the person, not material goods.
St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226): One of the biggest unknown truths about St. Francis is that
he was not an ordained priest; most scholars agree he was a deacon. Francis is known for the
renewal of the Church in Europe after hearing Christ on a crucifix in San Damiano say to him,
“Rebuild my Church.” Francis renounced his family wealth and dedicated himself to serving
the poor and embracing poverty himself. Francis imitated Christ so intensely that he was given
the stigmata, the wounds of the crucifixion, and we see the diaconate as a configuring to
Christ the servant.
These four deacons of the Church acted out of love for God, for the Church, and for their
people. Though they have different stories, in being compelled by the love of Christ (cf. 2 Cor.
5:14), they each received their eternal reward of life in heaven with the One they served here
on earth. I pray that I may be compelled by that same love, to invite others into an encounter
with the Lord in this life, so we may all be with Him in the next.
On the journey of holiness,
Deacon Andy Matijevic

The “foreigners” as Isaiah calls them,
the “Gentiles” as Paul calls them, or the
“Canaanites” as Matthew calls them are
called to worship the one true God in
prayer. As we listen to today’s readings,
perhaps we are tempted to ask: Why
pray? The question is rhetorical; it is
tantamount to asking why should friends
talk to one another or people in love kiss
one another. Prayer is a way of relating to
God, a way of talking to God. The
apostles had the opportunity to talk to
SAINT PIUS X (1835-1914) Jesus in the flesh. We have the
Feast Day: August 21 opportunity to talk to Jesus Christ in
