April 29, 2018 ~ 5th Sunday of Easter Remain in Me In this day and age, many of us are trying to bear fruit on our own. In the words of Dr. Phil, “how is that working for you.” Have you ever noticed that when you try to do things on your own it tends to be fruitless? It doesn’t feed the soul or the souls around us. It has no lasting impact. In an honest sense of the word, it can be truly depressing. Life is not meant to be that. The first challenge, is to root ourselves to Christ? Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit? There is a God and its not me. That’s why we can be so fruitless. Doing it our way we are actually fighting the life-giving source of energy that makes the world go round, God. Make Christ our root. Turn our will over to the one who cares for us. I am not saying a blind obedience. It’s an obedience that we can readily discern will give life. It wasn’t blind obedience that Jesus died on the cross. He knew that he would be raised up and that his little community would be raised up to be the light of the world. The second challenge, Christ lives in community. You can not say that you are rooted in Christ and not rooted in community. We are an incarnational people which means that Christ lives in the flesh in community. Are we fighting working with community? Again, we find ourselves fighting that life-giving energy of God. We can pretend that we are working in community, but secretly doing our own separate ministry not seeing how we are connected to the whole. Connect to the whole. This is heaven. Pull together. God bless, Fr. Chris

Discipleship
Branches that Do Not Bear Fruit Are Trimmed
The Gospel today makes clear, once again, that when we are
united with Jesus we will bear fruit, pruned of the branches
that do not bear fruit. God expects results! Love, in words
only, is not sufficient. Deeds must follow. Branches that fail
to bear fruit are cut away from the vine. Not easy words to
hear.
FOR IT IS IN GIVING THAT WE RECEIVE
“Children, let us love not in
word or speech but in deed
and truth.” – 1 JOHN 3:18
Regarding our Catholic
faith, do you “walk the
talk?” Do your actions re-
flect what it means to be a
good disciple? Are you an
active participant at Sun-
day Mass? Are you joyful
when participating in par-
ish ministry? Do you give
gratefully and generously
with your financial support
to your parish and other
Church needs? If not, it’s
not too late to start!
