Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, With praise and thanksgiving to God, I offer congratulations on behalf of our parish family to our friend and former seminarian, (now) Reverend Father Angel Marrero, on the occasion of his ordination to the priesthood of Jesus Christ for the Archdiocese of Baltimore! We also welcome his family who have travelled from Puerto Rico and Florida to help him celebrate this joyous occasion. I thank you (especially Angel’s mom and dad), on behalf of the Church of Baltimore, for all you have done to help Angel become the good, decent, loving, and holy man that he is, and for now giving him whole-heartedly back to God, that he might praise, love, and serve the Lord and His People in the priesthood for the good of their salvation and his own. The priesthood is such a full and fulfilling life, because the priest shares in the very life and ministry of Christ: teaching, governing, and sanctifying. For the same reason, it can be a hard life because when you share the life of Jesus, you also share his cross. Yet, the cross is the place of greatest grace and the source of deepest consolation—the priest knows this and so is not afraid to imitate Christ, who “for the sake of the joy that lay before him, endured the cross” (Heb 12:2). The life of a priest is a life of full of faith, hope, and love, because he witnesses these things lived so courageously in the lives of the people whom he is privileged to serve and who in turn share their lives with him. And when a priest strives to conform his life in obedience to the call of Christ who invites us to sell all we have, and “come, follow me” (Mt 10:21), the life of a priest also becomes a “sign of contradiction”—strange to some and even threatening to others—because in a world that holds up power, pleasure, success, honors, wealth and possessions as the ultimate signs of the good life, a priest witnesses to the radical and transcendent values of the Kingdom grounded in the Gospel of the Beatitudes. And the priest, perhaps more than any other person, beholds the wondrous mercy and love God incarnate in Christ Jesus alive in the Church every day, because he literally confects and holds the mercy and love of God in his hands every time he celebrates the Eucharist. It is an incredible, mysterious, joyful life. The Dominican priest, Jean-Baptiste Lacordaire, summed up the mystery and joy of the priesthood so well and so beautifully in his poem, Thou Art a Priest Forever: To live in the midst of the world with no desire for its pleasures, To be a member of every family, yet belong to no one; To share all sufferings, to penetrate all secrets; To heal all wounds; To go daily from men to God, To offer him their homage and petition; To return from God to men to bring them his pardon and his hope; To have a heart of bronze for chastity, and a heart of flesh for charity; To teach and instruct, to pardon and console, To bless and be blessed forever! Oh God! What a life, and tis Thine, Oh priest of Jesus Christ. So once more, congratulations, Fr. Angel! You are a priest forever. Know of our prayers, support, and love. Ad multos annos. For those of you who might think the priesthood or religious life may be a sad or unfulfilling life, there is nothing further from the truth. Just take a look at Fr. Angel. So if you know a young man who you think might make a good priest, please tell him so. Help to plant and nourish the seeds that by God’s grace might one day bear fruit for the whole Church, and great happiness for the young man, and his family. It might be the greatest thing you do for the Kingdom. As schools get out and families kick into summer vacation gear, I would like to remind parish families that going on vacation are not a valid excuse for missing Sunday Mass. God’s love, grace, and mercy for you does not take a vacation, and neither do God’s commandments cease to bind you because you are away from home! Please take a look at www.masstimes.org to find the location of a parish and times when Mass is being celebrated anywhere you might go in the world. And please, go to Mass! Peace and prayers, Fr. Jim
