ST JOHN BOSCO, Priest
Heb 10: 19-25
Mk 4: 21-25

Works that satisfy are especially almsgiving, fasting and prayer.

From Father Tom: YOU make the comment.  Easy, isn't it?  No problem asking others to do things...problem is to do them...OURSELVES.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Fr. Renato Canciani SSP (1976)-- Vita Sorrento IAM (1981-- Bro Gaetano Kucich SSP (1984)-- Sr. M. Lorenzina Flores Yanez FSP (1987)-- Sr. M. Angelica Bondad FSP (1997)-- FR. Vincenzo Iannuzzi SSP(1999)

Wednesday, January 30
OF THE DAY
Heb 10: 11-18
Mk 4: 1-20

The Holy Spirit does not dwell in a proud heart, but communicates Himself to the simple (BM 231).

From Father Tom: Perhaps we don't usually credit the Holy Spirit with the good work He does.  Perhaps, but from the '60's onward and still rolling powerfully around the great Charismatic Movement has shared His power with countless numbers--perhaps you were one?

Hopefully, the little booklet of the Stations of the Cross provided last November is still being used and frequently.  It is impossible to do too much for the departed and it is very easy in our overly-optimistic age to do too little.

Tuesday, January 29
OF THE DAY
Heb 10:1-10
Mk 3: 31-35

To the person who prays, nothing is denied.  Even the chain of bad habits can be broken (BM p 578).

From Father Tom: Many of us can agree although often the prayers come from some friend or relation concerned about the way we were going.  But also the great Friend behind the scenes is the One who makes things happen!

ST THOMAS AQUINAS, Priest, Doctor
Heb 9: 15-28
Mk 3: 22:-30

God is faithful to His promises and gives His peace to whoever has goodwill (FSP p. 749).

From Father Tom: We have always to ask: if I am not at peace, what is the cause?  Myself? Others?  Perhaps my selfishness?  My pride?  One of the other Capital Sins?  If lack of peace is our problem, let's devote some time today to finding the reason.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. M. Clara Capelletti SGBP (1973)-- Fernandez M. Da Costa IAM (1973)-- Fr. GAetano Tedeschi IJP (1985)-- Sr. Maria Cucchi SGBP (2001)-- Luis Spalla HFI (2005)-- GEraldine Gretchko (2987)--Hilario Zuniga (1972)

Neh 8: 8:2-10
1 Cor 12: 12-30
Lk 1: 1-4

The person who rightly guides himself, reflects before talking. (RSP 229).

From Father Tom: And who could dispute this?  No one!  And how many practice it?  No one! So, at least for today, let's reflect more and  speechify less.

Please Pray for Our Deceased:  Msgr Alfred FErnandez IJP (1983)-- Sr. Anna Rinaldi FSP (1996)-- Fr. Giuseppe Manzo IJP (2002)--Sr. M. Lia Chirone FSP (2003) -- Sr. Amabile Zappardo FSP (2004)-- Charles Piampiano (1978)  James Teterycz (2012)

SS TIMOTHY AND TITUS, Bishops
2 Tim 1: 1-8
Mk 3: 20-21

Our prayer is never just ours, but rather Christ must pray with us and He does it what we ask is for the glory of God and peace to others (BM 495).

From Father Tom: But, in a sense, are not all our prayers the sort Christ can join?  Could we possibly pray for something He would not want?  Possibly, yes, if our prayers are limited largely to ourselves and or interests. 

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. Francesca Masala FSP (1980)-- Amabile Grando HFI (1987)-- Fr. Anselmo Viano SSP (1996)-- Sr. M.

CONVERSION OF ST PAUL
Acts 22: 3-16
Mk 16: 15-18

What am I to do , Lord?"  These words point to Saul's complete conversion as well as his absolute readiness to carry out God's wil (SP Jan '63).

From Father Tom: Saul put it into words, but the rule is the same for everyone--including us.  The only difference is that fidelity to our Rule makes the doing of God's will more precise and more valuable.

Please Pray for Our Deceased:  Fr. Giuseppe Chiesa (1991)-- Sr. M. Emiliana Sartor PD (2000)-- Bro James De Feo SSP (2000)-- Fr. Valentino Gambi SSP (2002)-- Sylvester Teterycz (1964)

ST FRANCIS DE SALES, Bishop, Doctor
Heb 7: 25-8:6
Mk 3: 7-12

The only comment here is: have you got your copy of the Treatize on the Devout Life and other Salesian writings?  They are written for people like us!

Please Pray for Our Deceased:  Blessed Timothy M. Giaccardo, SSP (1948)-- Fr. Angelo Fenoglio SSP (1980)-- Sr. M. Gabriela Raccosta PD (2001)-- Sr. Giulia Fontana FSP (2005)

OF THE DAY
ST. VINCENT, Deacon, Martyr
Heb 7: 1-7
Mk 3: 1-6

Mortification enables us to live a higher life.  We use our natural tendencies to serve God (BM 253).

From Father Tom: We touched on this before.  First of all we determine the real fault to be corrected, then we choose the means. Fasting is a common choice, but not for those who eat moderately, but have a forked tongue.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. Gabriella Ambrogio FSP (1944)-- Sr. Maria della Croce Cavalleris PD (1949)-- Bro Mario Eustaquio de Fonseca SSP (1995)-- Bro Ramiro Morales SSP (2004)-- Fr. Alessandro Marengo SSP (2006)

Tuesday, January 22
OF THE DAY
Heb 6: 10-20
Mk 2: 23-28

Intellectual pride is the reason many do not believe or have problems resisting temptations (BM 196).

From Father Tom: As these people might say: WHAT temptation?  When you know all the answers you don't have any more questions.  A very dangerous mindset and one that has led unfortunates to the place none of us want to go.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Fr. Vincenzo Bernardini IJP (1990)-- Sr. Giovannina Deano FSP (1991)-- Sr. M. Gabriella Massariol PD (1996)-- Sr. M. Marcelina Monticelli FSP (2002)-- Sr. M. Stella Degni FSP (2002)-- Sr. M. Stella Degni FSP (2006)

ST AGNES, Virgin and Martyr
Heb 5: 1-10
Mk 2: 18-22

"For the greater glory of God!  This is the motto of the Saints and an act of perfect charity.  It shows purity of intention (BM 37).

From Father Tom: This reminds us that our exam can also touch on the motivation for for what we have said or done.  Words, innocent in  themselves can however be tainted by a malicious intent. Isn't the exam a pain? But, better pain now, than...

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr.  M. Annita Firmo FSP (1974)-- Sr. M. Franca Janiello FSP (1987)--Sr. Francisca Trettel SGBP (1993)-- Fr. Giuseppe Bistolfi (1999)-- Sr.M. Gesuina Quaranta FSP (2001)-- Rose Teterycz (1985)

Sunday, January 20
2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time
Is 62: 1-5
1 Cor. 12: 4-11
Jn 2: 1-11

Christ needs to make our prayer his prayer and this happens when what we ask is for the glory of God and peace among people (BM 493).

From Father Tom: We can rightfully pray earnestly for a special intention and strongly wish that it be granted. But always with the awareness that we submit to the will of God, not just because He is bigger and stronger, but because what He wants is always the best possible for us.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. M. Giuditta Benzo PD (1972)-- Sr. Teresa Maria Hernandez FSP (1977)-- Sr. Assunta Moyano FSP (1978)-- Sr. Panacea Bragliola FSP (1993)-- Sr. M.  Edilma Franco Quitiani FSP (1999)-- Bro Cirilo Penas SSP (2001)--Fr. Humberto Aguilar SSP (2001)

ST CANUTE
Blessed Virgin Mary on Saturday
Heb 4: 12-16
Mk 2: 13-17

Jesus was the great Consoler.  He cured many sick people and helped all with words of faith and hope (BM 334).

From Father Tom:  And the words were just as useful in their way as the healings.  Mark Twain said he could go for 3 months on a good compliment.  And couldn't we all?

Please Pray for Our Deceased:  Sr. M. Marherita Gerlotto PD (1965)-- Sr. Massima Serinelli PD (1990)-- Sr. Maria Ines Cavagnoli SGBP (1993)-- Matteo Zaccari HFI (1994)-- Fr.

Friday, January 18
OF THE DAY
Heb 4: 1-5, 11
Mk 2: 1-12

The apostle of Jesus Christ never seeks himself.  Souls are his greatest profit.  He serves them without making calculations (BM 274).

From Father Tom: Including, let it be noted, calculations about how well he is serving them!  We talk about serving God and souls and we mean it, but it is hard to do this well--self-love always creeps in.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Bro Tito Della Bartola SSP (1972)-- Fr. Armando Gualandi SSP (1982)-- Fr. Armando Giovannini SSP (1991)-- Benito Filemon Villa HFI (1996)-- Mario Pietrofeso HFI (2004)-- Sr. M. Luisa Fallado PD (2006)-- Vincenza Lionetti IAM (2009)

Thursday, January 17
OF THE DAY
Heb 3: 7-14
Mk 1: 40-45

The heart is out of track if it loses itself in false loves and sensual friendships (BM 104).

From Father Tom: We are animals, yes, but much more and it is only when we give a certain precedence to the "more" that we can properly handle...the less.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. M. Alfonsa Maretto PD (1984)-- Sr. M. Stella Signorini FSP (1986)-- Fr. Vito Frassanito IJP (1998)-- Sr. Anna Foschi SGBP (1999)-- Sr. Rachele Binello FSP --SR. M. Amabilis Cassarotto FSP (2009)-- Olga Falbo IAM (2010)

January 16, 2013 With Blessed Father Alberione

Wednesday, January 16
OF THE DAY
Heb 2: 14-18
Mk 1: 29-39

Jesus is a sign of contradiction.  If we are popular with people,please people, we are not servants of Christ (BM 291).

From Father Tom:  Yes. These days when Catholicity is challenged and when "Catholic" can mean different things, we have to be quite clear about what WE mean and that can be embarrassing, but...

Tuesday, January 15
OF THE DAY
Heb 2: 5-12
Mk 1: 21-28

Faith is a gift of God and we must pray for an increase of it, that it may become more simple, more active and more enlightened (BM 196).

From Father Tom: The Year of Faith is all this but much more:  we not only believe but share our belief and we back up this sharing with prayer.  The challenge is terrific but... let's begin with our neighbors...what is the state of their faith and can we help?

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. Consolata Binello FSP (1948)-- Sr. Paolina Magnani FSP (2000)-- Sr. M. Valentina Bedino PD (2000)-- Fr. Vincenzo Marseglia IJP (2002)-- Bro Harry Morgan FSC (2005)

January 14, 2013 With Blessed Father Alberione and With Father Tom

Monday, January 14
OF THE DAY
Heb 1: 1-6
Mk 1: 14-20

The will is often proudly independent, wanting happiness, but looking for it where it does not exist (BM p. 124)

From Father Tom: The will is our precious possession, marking us off from the animals who follow instinct.  The problem is to will or want the right thing, the best decision. And what is that?  The Will of God in each time and place.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. M. Teresa Congiu FSP (1961)-- Sr. M. Leonlide Torrengo PD (1971)-- Sr. Anna Caterina Tagliani FSP (1997)-- Fr. Roberto Nunez IJP (2004)-- Sr. M. Teresina Pallavicino FSP (2005)

THE BAPTISM OF THE LORD
Is 42 1-4, 6-7
Acts 10: 34-38
Lk 3: 15-16, 22-30

At the Baptism of Jesus the voice of the Father was heard.  Jesus was silent--but active.  The Holy Spirit presided over the special event. (B.M. 593).

From Father Tom: Your baptism and mine were not so pubic, but they were equally important and now they are increased and multiplied by our Institute membership!

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. Berardetta Ferraris FSP (2002)-- Gioia Keeney (2006).

January 12, 2013 With Blessed Father Alberione and With Father Tom

Saturday, January 12
OF THE DAY
1 Jn 5: 14-21
Jn 3: 22-30

Zeal must be supernatural in its beginning and in its end.  True zeal comes only from a true love of God and souls.

From Father Tom: The old question: how (to) recognize true zeal?  The easiest answer:  if we persevere in spite of many failures.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Fr. Agide Pasotti IJP (1995)

January 11, 2013 With Blessed Father Alberione and With Father Tom

Friday, January 11
OF THE DAY
1 Jn 5: 5-13
Lk 5: 12-16

Vocation is an act of special love of God for us.  "He called to Himself those He wanted." (FSP 44 p. 623).

From Father Tom: How true!  In July of  (my?) 22nd year I was a typical Irish youth. By July of my 23rd year I was (you might say) a religious fanatic!  "Our Lord poured out on me the grace and love which are ours in Christ Jesus" (1 Tim 14).  He did something similar for you--never forget it.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. M. Celestina Giglione FSP (1949)-- Sr.M. Lidia Zago FSP (1950)-- Bro Alfonso Panaro SSP (1972)-- Fr.  M. Alfonso Panaro SSP (1972)-- Fr. M.

Thursday, January 10
OF THE DAY
1 Jn 4: 19-5:4
Lk 4: 14-22

Alongside the power of those who do better than us in the service of evil, we must not forget that there is the power of God (SP March 1969).

From Father Tom: Which, however, must have first place in our plans.  That is not always evident from the various proposals for the New Evangelization.  With prayer, there are still enormous obstacles.  Without prayer we have already conceded defeat.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. M. Bernardita Arcila FSP (1987)-- Cesarino Cearlini HFI (2008)-- Sr. M. Veronica Varona FSP (2007)-- Mary Kennedy (2005)

Wednesday, January 9
OF THE DAY
1 Jn 4: 11-18
Mk 6: 45-52

People take externals into consideration and appreciate what they see and hear, but God sees the heart and the reality (RSP p. 152).

From Father Tom: This is not to say that we can neglect externals and ask people to look into our hearts!  Something else is meant: we must not see external approval as EVERYTHING, as the only intelligent goal.  What?  You want approval of your limping through life from the other cripples?!

Please Pray for Our Deceased:  Sr. M. Orsola Gattei PD (1947)-- Lucia Melotto HFI (1994)-- Michele Budetta HFI (1997)-- Maria da Assuncao Pereira Pinto IAM (2001)-- Fr. Anntonio Tacconi SSP (2008)-- Fr. Tiuliano Zoppi SSP (2009)-- Sr. M. Giustina Larcher PD (2009)-- Sr. M. Gesuina Mocci FSP (2010)

Tuesday, January 8
OF THE DAY
1 Jn 4: 7-10
Mk 6: 34-44

Compassion is the first movement of a good heart:  pain touches it and is moved by it and bends to alleviate it (BM p. 99).

From Father Tom:  Compassion is from "cum" and "patire". Cum" is Latin for "with" and "patire" is Latin for "suffer" so a compassion is really more than "feeling" but involves "suffering with" someone.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Fr. Manuel Marques SSP (1990)-- Fr. Paolo Cirio SSP (1990)-- SR. M. Gugliemina Butano PD (1995)-- Sr. M. Cristina Barberi FSP (1995)-- Emilia Desiato HFI (1995)-- Bro Crisostomo Canclini SSP (2000)-- Angelo Falchi, Gabrielite (2004)-- Sr.M. Angeles Lopez PD (2006)-- Fr.

ST ANDRE BESSETTE
First Monday of the month--St. Paul

Jesus is the Master.  We kneel before Him and say: "Speak, Lord, for Your servant is listening." (RSP 28).

From Father Tom: True, but in His lifetime, Jesus did the kneeling: to wash the dirty feet of His disciples.  Let's kneel in our minds: humility with everyone, politeness, gentleness.  The Lord is also in those we meet!

Is 60: 1-6
Eph 3: 2-3, 5-6
Mk 2: 1-12

Wisdom, warmth and divine authority revealed themselves in the preaching of Jesus (BM 329).

From Father Tom: And in His general attitude .  So, the obvious question:  what does MY preaching (or "speeching") reveal about me? What does yours, reveal about you?

ST JOHN NEUMANN, Bishop

1 Jn 3: 11-21
Jn 1: 1, 43-51

From the beginning of His public ministry, Jesus called Peter, Andrewand the others, trained them and sent them out as apostles (BM 40-487).

From Father Tom:  Yes, quite right.  But Mary is called Queen of Apostles, though she never said a word.

1 Jn 3: 7-10
Jn 1: 35-42

Jesus knows how our hearts are made and had proportioned His teaching wonderfully to our needs (RSP p. 96)

From Father Tom: Yes, but He has done much more:  He Himself IS the teacher!  Talk about the personal touch-- we're getting it in spades!  That's what LOVE UNLIMITED means!
