“The Church is a Field Hospital at the
scene of a Battle.”
--His Holiness, Pope Francis
“The Church is called to be the house of the Father, with
doors always wide open. One concrete sign of such
openness is that our church doors should always be
open, so that if someone, moved by the Spirit, come
there looking for God, he or she will not find a closed
door. There are other doors that should not be closed
either. Everyone can share in some way in the life of
the Church: everyone can be part of the community, nor
should the doors of the sacraments be closed for simply
any reason. This is especially true of the sacrament
which is itself “the door”: Baptism. The Eucharist,
although it is the fullness of sacramental life, is not a
prize for the perfect but a powerful medicine and
nourishment for the weak. The convictions have
pastoral consequences that we are called to consider
with prudence and boldness. Frequently, we act as
arbiters of grace rather than its facilitators. But the
Church is not a tollhouse; it is the house of the Father,
where there is a place for everyone, with all their
problems.” --His Holiness, Pope Frances, The Joy of the
Gospel (Evangelii Gaudium)

REFLECTION ON SUPREME COURT’S
DECISION ON SAME-SEX MARRIAGE
Cardinal Donald Wuerl, the Archbishop of
Washington, DC, provided this reflection:
“Because Jesus came to save all people, all are
invited to be a part of God’s family—his
Church. Faithful to her Lord and Founder, the
Church welcomes everyone. It is the home for
all who seek to follow Jesus as his disciple.
This welcome is extended to everyone:
married couples with children, unwed mothers
and fathers, couples who struggle with
infertility, men and women with same-sex
attraction, individuals facing gender issues,
those whose marriages have broken down and
suffered the trauma of divorce, people with
special needs, immigrants, children born and
unborn, the young, seniors, and the terminally
ill, sinners and saints alike.”
Cardinal Wuerl’s statement said the Church
must strike a balance between holding fast to
its teaching about marriage while abiding by
the new law.
