uh according to St Mark this they
2:33
observed that some of his disciples ate
2:36
their meals with unclean that is
2:39
unwashed hands for the Pharisees and in
2:42
fact all Jews do not coming from the
2:44
marketplace they do not the purification
2:46
of Cups and jugs and Kettles not follow
2:49
the tradition of the elders well did
2:52
Isaiah prophesy their hearts are far
2:55
from me you disregard God's commandment
2:59
but cling to human tradition and he
3:01
summoned the crowd again and said to

evils come from within and they
3:21
defile we do have our first Sunday
3:24
benediction today and so I'll make the
3:25
announcements at this point first of all
3:27
I want to extend a welcome to all of our
3:28
guests and visitors note that the
3:30
pilgrimage that I'll be leading begins
3:32
on Tuesday morning at about 4:00 a.m.

3:37
throughout this week for daily mass
3:39
father Donnie kosma who is a newly
3:41
ordained priest of our dicese who is
3:43
currently serving in Pineville will be
3:46
here for masses and we'll hear
3:47
confessions as usual uh and then uh that
3:51
that weekend in the meantime if you do
3:53
need any spiritual care whatever needs
3:54
arise uh in social media I will be
3:57
taking pictures thing so if you're
3:59
interested none of that nonsense it all
4:01
is just dead to me so if you're
4:02
interested in that text me and I'll give
4:03
you the link and you can enjoy all the
4:05
pictures uh serendipitously and
4:07
vicariously through uh through five
4:08
weeks now of St John's gospel sermons on
4:12
the Holy Eucharist and Jesus's great
4:15
bread of life discourse the church
4:18
follows that up from the gospel of St
4:21
Mark make sure you're clean before you
4:24
eat dirty hands are a problem do you eat
4:28
food with dirty hands you can get in
4:30
trouble but it's much much worse to have
4:35
a dirty
4:37
soul and that's something that we as
4:39
Christians kind of genuinely understand
4:42
it's something that is part of our DNA
4:45
but at the same time it Bears
4:49
repeating most of us here people are not
4:51
trying to rip somebody off we are G
4:54
members of our families we're trying to
4:55
be good co-workers we're trying to be
4:58
good Citizens We're trying to be good
5:00
parishioners we make our mistakes but
5:02
none of us are trying to be bad Sin if
5:06
it's really bad things can have
5:09
consequences and if there are don't have
5:12
those sorts of things if you have an
5:13
issue with arson come talk to me right
5:15
away but I don't expect most of us
5:18
do but greed ones but the little ones
5:21
are really easy to commit and so is
5:25
Gossip so is being judgmental so is not
5:28
trust once to do in a big life decision
5:32
or an important
5:33
situation St Paul reminds us that all
5:36
have sinned and fallen short of the
5:39
glory of God and so all of us need to
5:42
return to the Lord and seek his Mercy
5:45
now practically that we for holy days of
5:48
obligation if I don't see you at Mass
5:50
I'm amazingly haha and all that stuff
5:52
but it's a nice little joke because it
5:54
kind of makes clear how it works right
5:56
we need to be there before we're here
5:59
and again all a lot of Catholics think
6:02
of of it in a very shameful way like oh
6:04
you so and so went to confession went
6:07
twice in the last month you notice that
6:09
yeah it's not a shameful thing it's not
6:12
meant to be a shameful thing it's meant
6:15
to be an honest thing that we all sin we
6:18
all fall short of the glory of God it
6:20
was always amazing Confessor came in and
6:22
Pope joh Pope St John Paul II went to
6:24
confession almost every nun that I know
6:27
goes to confession every week one of my
6:31
favorite um was like being stoned to
6:34
death because after great silence and
6:36
you're going come on and for us that
6:40
would probably not count as a sin I
6:42
would expect but within the con God this
6:46
is history of the world it's something
6:48
that they need I fell short of the glory
6:50
of God it's an honest thing in fact as
6:53
we grow as Christians we should
6:56
naturally be moving from our youth where
6:59
we commit a lot of sins because we're
7:02
trying to figure out how to operate
7:04
these bodies and all these hormones and
7:06
whatnot some bad habits and we have to
7:08
kind of work that out and then as we
7:10
grow as people and as we grow as
7:12
Christians we start to move away from
7:15
committing sins the sins I didn't visit
7:18
the sick and the needy or whatever the
7:20
case continue and should continue to go
7:22
to confession through how I should this
7:25
is how the forgiven to use the metaphor
7:28
necessar
7:30
the same dirt's going to be bathe even
7:32
though it's not like it's going to be
7:34
better tomorrow afternoon if I bathe now
7:36
it doesn't mean I can not bathe later
7:38
this is just part of what it means to be
7:40
a human being take that metaphor a
7:42
little clean oursel to be now confession
7:45
sin and you have not gone to confession
7:47

7:49
