As we return home from our
pro-life training mission to Macau, I am reflecting on this Sunday's
Lenten Gospel message from John, Chapter 2:
His disciples recalled the words of Scripture, "Zeal for your house will consume me."
Our Lord's zeal manifests
here in a particularly vivid way as he kicks the money changers out of
the temple, yet it can be seen throughout the Gospels with the Samaritan
woman at the well, on the hillside of Northern Israel to deliver the
Sermon on the Mount, indeed emanating from every passage of the Good
News. We will again remember together the clearest expression of His
zeal in four weeks, in the ultimate sacrifice of love, His Passion, from
the Cross of Salvation where He breathed His last.
No matter where the HLI
family is working to share the Gospel of Life - in Macau, Namibia,
Honduras or Virginia - His zeal becomes ours when we are truly trying to
build a Culture of Life. Like so many of you, our global missionaries
cannot be silent about Church teaching on contraception, abortion,
euthanasia, and same-sex unions, and the like. Where an opportunity
exists to preach the pro-life message, we share that zeal with bishops,
nuncios, priests, seminarians, consecrated religious and laity.
This week's Spirit &
Life presents stories where our zeal for God shines through. Thank you
for your continued prayers and support, which have contributed to the
success of HLI around the world.
God bless you!
