March 31, 2020 “90-Days Now - For Your Parish” Initiative Launched

4/30/2020

For most of us, life is entirely different now from what it was just a few weeks ago. Life changed overnight, it seemed, when the virus hit and the stay at home order was announced.

This crisis offers us many opportunities, prominent among them is the opportunity to respond to the Lord’s invitation to a deeper, more intimate relationship with him. The words of the book of Revelation come to mind: Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him (her) and eat with him (her), and he (she) with me. (Rev. 3:20). The lyrics of Paul McCartney put it musically: Someone’s knocking at the door. Someone’s ringing the bell. Do me a favor, open the door, let’em in. We know who that someone is. Jesus is always knocking at our door.

Curiously, the door on which Jesus is knocking does not have an outside handle. It can be opened only from the inside. The Lord does not intrude, nor does he force himself on us. Only we open the door to him and let him in.

The Lord is always knocking but we may normally be too busy to hear him knocking. This crisis gives many of us much more time than we usually have. We might be better able to hear his loving knock on the door. Prayer, especially the Eucharist, is the perfect way to open the door and let him in.

We live-stream Mass each day (except Saturday) from Resurrection or Saint Paul at 10 AM. The Mass is also available on our website: hinghamcatholic.org. Catholic TV has Mass Monday through Friday at 9:30 AM which is rebroadcast at 7 PM and 11.30 PM.

The month of May, which begins on Friday, is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of Jesus. A family rosary is a beautiful prayer on any day, but especially during the month of May.

Let him in. Let him love you.
In Christ,
Father Tom Nestor
