TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION The recent “October count” tracking the statistics of partici-pation at Sunday Mass calls to mind the situations of churches where it is difficult or impossible for Catholics to worship freely. This is especially striking in English Catho-lic history, as freedom of worship was systematically dis-mantled at the time of the Reformation. It seems that most English people retained deeply Catholic sympathies throughout the period of religious upheaval. Catholics who refused to participate in the public worship of the Church of England were called “recusants,” and beginning with the reign of Elizabeth I, they were subject to strict penalties. Recusant literally means “a person re-fusing to obey a com-mand.” Most of those laws were in force until the early 1800s, and Catholics were not entirely emanci-pated from the duty of Anglican worship until 1829. Recusants paid heavy fines for not attending the state church. Holding on to Catholic faith was therefore a luxury of the very rich, who maintained private chapels, and sent their daughters and sons to English con-vents and monastery schools on the continent. Remarka-bly, the first among all British peers, the Dukes of Nor-folk, the hereditary Earls Marshal of England, have never given up their Catholic faith. Many of these wealthy recu-sant families founded the colony of Maryland, and later many members of the old Catholic families continued on to the Kentucky frontier in search of greater religious free-dom. —Rev.

THE THIRTY-FIRST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME—October 30, 2016
GOD IS WITH US The book of Wisdom tells us that the spirit of God is in all things. What a wonderful thought, and what a wonderful image to keep in front of us as we travel down life’s road. For if the path is revealed in the treading, it’s good to know that God is with us—and all around us—every step of the way. But Paul knows that this divine presence is not timid. Instead, God calls out to us, and Paul prays that we, along with the Thessalonians, might be made worthy of that call. And who knows more about God’s call than Zacchaeus, the tax collector? Jesus called him out of a tree, for goodness’ sake. Or perhaps more correctly, as we reflect upon the end of today’s Gospel reading, for heaven’s sake. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
