         ear sisters and brothers in Christ,
                                                                                                         Monday:
           One of the persons that was instrumental in my discerning the call to the priesthood          St. Vincent de Paul
           and religious life is a prayerful and cheerful Baptist woman from Bardstown,                  Zec 8:1-8
Kentucky. She was one of my supervisors when I worked as a residence hall director at the                Ps 102:16-23,29
University of Louisville. I maintained a good friendship with her even when I left Louisville            Lk 9:46-50
after finishing my graduate school program in education administration. She was the one who
                                                                                                         Tuesday:
instinctively knew I needed time away from my job in Belize to spend time discerning God’s

voice during a time of confusion and frustration. She invited me to spend some quiet time in
                                                                                                         Ps 87:1b-7

This weekend’s first reading from the book of Numbers and the Gospel according to Saint                  Sts Michael, Gabriel
Mark, drives home a clear message to all believers. God can and does work in usual places                & Raphael
and in usual circumstances, but God also works in ways we least expect, and ways we have                 Dn 7:9-10,13-14 or
yet to imagine. Both Moses and Jesus remind us of God’s presence in surprising places and                Rv 12:7-12ab
persons. They advise acceptance of those outside our circles, those who also manifest the                Ps 138:1-5
Spirit of God. And both leaders serve to re-orient their followers to the addressing of the              Jn 1:47-51
pressing needs of their people by whomever the Spirit has empowered to do so. And the
Spirit continues working through individuals and churches of other denominations and faith               Thursday:
traditions.                                                                                              St. Jerome
                                                                                                         Neh 8:1-4a,5-6,
Allow me to point out a few ways of breaking down potential stumbling blocks that prevent us             7b-12
from being better witnesses of the Holy Spirit’s actions in our world. First: We can highlight           Ps 19:8-11
and appreciate the gifts that the Holy Spirit has sown in our brothers and sisters in Christ             Lk 10:1-12
who are not in full communion with our Catholic Church. What the Holy Spirit sows in other               Friday:
Christians can be a gift to us. Secondly: We can be more open to encounter, accompany and
                                                                                                         St. Térèse of the
engage those who challenge us and take us out of our comfort zone. Thirdly: We can foster                Child Jesus
an “us” mentality and leave behind the ‘us versus them’ paradigm, especially as it relates to            Bar 1:15-22
those outside our Christian faith tradition. In this regard, we can take heed from the Second            Ps 79:1b-5,8-9
Vatican Council’s declaration on the relation of the Church to Non-Christian religions                   Lk 10:13-16
(Nostrae Aetate). The document declares, “The Catholic Church rejects nothing of what is true
and holy in these religions…Although differing in many ways from our own teaching, these                 Saturday:
religions often reflect a ray of that truth which enlightens all men and women…Let Christians,           Guardian Angels
while witnessing to their own faith and way of life, acknowledge, preserve and encourage the             Bar 4:5-12,27-29
spiritual and moral truths found among non-Christians, together with their                               Ps 69:33-37
social life and culture.”                                                                                Mt 18:1-5,10

I pray to God for it to be so!                                                                           Sunday:
