One day each of us will be asked by God what we did with those gifts. How will you respond? The Media & Respect for Life An important and serious responsibility belongs to those involved with the mass media, who are called to ensure that the messages which they so effectively transmit will support the culture of life. They need to present noble models of life and make room for instances of people s positive and sometimes heroic love for others. With great respect they should also present the positive values of sexuality and human love, and not insist on what defiles and cheapens human dignity. In their interpretation of things, they should refrain from emphasizing anything that suggests or fosters feelings or attitudes of indifference, contempt or rejection in relation to life. With scrupulous concern for factual truth, they are called to combine freedom of information with respect for every person and a profound sense of humanity. -St. Pope John Paul II READINGS THIS WEEK JUNE 2015 14 Sunday EZ 17:22-24;PS 92:2-3, 13-16; 2COR 5:6-10;MK 4:26-34 15 Monday 2COR 6:1-10; PS 98:1, 2B, 3AB, 3CD-4; MT 5:38-42 16 Tuesday 2COR 8:1-9; PS 146:2, 5-6AB, 6C-7, 8-9A; MT 5:43-48 17 Wednesday 2COR 9:6-11; PS 112:1BC-2, 3-4, 9; MT 6:1-6, 16-18 18 Thursday 2COR 11:1-11;PS 111:1B-2, 3-4, 7-8; MT 6:7-15 19 Friday 2COR 11:18, 21-30;PS 34:2-3, 4-5, 6-7;MT6:19-23 20 Saturday 2COR 12:1-10; PS 34:8-9, 10-11, 12-13; MT6:24-34
