Corpus Christi Sunday June 10, 2012 A Letter from Our Pastor Dear Brothers and Sisters, This coming Friday is the annual celebration of the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart. It is therefore also our patronal feast as a parish named in honor of this solemnity and of this devotion to the divine love of God symbolized in the human heart of Jesus. This image needs explanation in our day because we think less and less in religious terms. One day I was sitting on the front porch and overheard some young (college-aged) people walking in front of the church, and one of them, seeing the name of the church, said, "Sacred Heart of Jesus! How sick is that!?" Wow, I thought, how far away they are from understanding this beautiful image! And, how on earth could they think of this as "sick"? So, yes, in our increasingly de-sacralized society religious terms need a lot of explanation. When we all made a decision back about 5 years ago to reject the offer we had been given to relocate to Gunbarrel, we decided to remain in downtown Boulder to be a light in the darkness and to be the love of Christ in the heart of Boulder. It seems that fewer and fewer people here know who Jesus is. In fact, a Protestant minister friend of mine said something very telling sometime after arriving at his ministry here in town. I went to visit him and inquired how he was doing. He said, "Well, I found out that Jesus is not welcome in this town!" That makes me all the more grateful to all of you, for your fidelity, for your endurance, and for the many ways you allow the Lord's grace to work through you as a person of faith in Jesus Christ. As our society becomes more and more "post- Christian," the battle I face within myself is how to deal with what feels like a massive loss of faith in Jesus Christ. Sometimes I feel angry over it, but what good does that do? Sometimes I feel despairing of the future of the Church, but how can I give in to that temptation?! Sometimes I simply feel sad that so many do not know the love of God in Christ Jesus and see no need for the sacraments, but sadness is not a hallmark of the Holy Spirit. I think our parish's name, and the reality it points to, can be a light in our own darkness. The Sacred Heart of Jesus is all about Jesus, is all about love, and is all about "the sacred." It does no good to be anything but loving to those who do not know Jesus. It does no good to be upset with those who do not know the realm of "the sacred," i.e., the world of God, the life of Christ, the Kingdom of God, or heaven. All we can do is to be faithful to the Lord who has so revealed Himself to us and to love the people He puts in our path. Furthermore, it does no good to expect those who do not see our Christian view of life to somehow "get it." It doesn't mean letting go of our values, our principles, our dogmas, our morals, but it does mean that we engage respectfully with those who see life differently from us. So, for us the image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, here in the heart of Boulder, is to love as Christ loves, to be faithful to Him and His Church in all things, and to treat everyone as we would like ourselves to be treated. Happy Feast Day. God bless you, Father Bill Breslin Check out my blog: fatherbillsblog.com ___________________ Sacred Heart of Jesus School We had a great school year at SHJ! Reflecting on the year, we are filled with gratitude for the parishioners of Sacred Heart of Jesus. Our school seeks to cultivate in students and in the whole school community a love for Jesus Christ, fidelity to His Church, and commitment to the dignity of the human person. We want to assist parents in forming their children in moral and academic excellence so that our students can go into the wider community to serve and proclaim the Gospel. This would not be possible without your unwavering support throughout the school year. Thank you for your generosity! ..
