3 July 24, th Sunday in Ordinary Time KEEP PRAYING St. Monica, whose feast we celebrate in August, is often known as the persistent mother. She watched her oldest son, Augustine, turn his back on his Christian faith. Monica was exasperated. For years she gave up talking directly to her son on the advice of a local bishop, who told her that it was better to talk to God about Augustine then to Augustine about God. The mother never gave up praying for her son. Eventually Augustine gave up his wild ways, was baptized, and later ordained and named bishop of Hippo. St. Augustine went on to become one of the Church s greatest scholars. Today s readings address the importance of persistent prayer. Abraham, in spite of trepidation that he is bothering the Lord, continues to ask about the fate of Sodom and Gomorrah. Jesus, in Luke s Gospel, tells his disciples to ask and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you (Luke 11:9). This is our charge: keep praying. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co.

Joachim and Anne; World Youth Day, Krakow, Poland Friday: St. Martha Saturday: St. Peter Chrysologus; Blessed Virgin Mary TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Sometimes when bishops are consecrated, they are not given the care of a diocese as an ordinary. A very old tradition, however, assures that they are invested with a see, a link with a local church. Many hundreds of places around the world were dioceses at one time, but are no longer. In England, for example, some of the historic dioceses such as London, Salisbury, and Manchester ceased to be Catholic at the Reformation and their cathedrals passed to the Church of England. The reestablishment of the Catholic Church in the nineteenth century meant that new dioceses had to be created, such as at Liverpool and Westminster. Similarly, in Scandinavia the ancient Catholic dioceses vanished under Lutheranism. In North Africa, tiny dioceses disappeared under the sands or were swept away by Islam. In the United States, some original dioceses never really developed as population centers, such as the old dioceses of Bardstown, Vincennes, Sault Ste. Marie, or Walla Walla. The tradition of titular sees assures that the ancient churches are always held in prayer, as the bishop celebrates Mass in its memory a few times a year. Rev. James Field, Copyright J. S.
