Corporal Works of Mercy: Clothe the Naked

August 1, 2015 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

The third Corporal Work of Mercy is “Clothe the Naked.”  In times past, there may have been many people who only possessed the clothes on their backs, and those might have been so threadbare and worn out that the person might have been virtually naked. Although times have changed, and there are few people (in […]

Spiritual Works of Mercy: Counsel the Doubtful

July 15, 2015 by Fr. Ben Cameron Leave a Comment

The second Spiritual Work of Mercy is to Counsel the Doubtful.  What does this mean?  How can we live this work of mercy? Many people today are confused.  They might be looking for meaning in their lives, for answers to the biggest questions (Why do I exist?  Is there a purpose for my life?  What […]

Corporal Works of Mercy: Give Drink to the Thirsty

July 1, 2015 by Fr. Ben Cameron 1 Comment

The second Corporal Work of Mercy is To Give Drink to the Thirsty.  What are we talking about here?  I am sure that somebody, with tongue in cheek, will say that we should give free booze to alcoholics!  But that it NOT what the Gospel tells us:  Jesus said that the person who gives even […]

June 15, 2015 by Fr. Ben Cameron 1 Comment

The first of the spiritual works of mercy is “Instruct the Ignorant.”  We sometimes think that it is an insult to say that someone is ignorant, but in reality, it simply means that the person is without knowledge — of something that they would benefit from knowing.  To give knowledge — to give someone the […]

Viral Retreat

At a time when many of our normal activities have been shut down, or have been modified due to the need for “social distancing,” we might be asking if things will ever “get back to normal,” or how soon they will do so. Maybe we should be asking another question: “How can I turn this […]

Christ the King: Lord even in the worst times

Sometimes when we find ourselves living in times of darkness — political and social upheaval, economic uncertainty, loss of our jobs and the means to provide for our families — it can be easy to forget that Jesus Christ is still our King, and that He is ultimately in control. St. Paul tells us that […]

Powerful Spiritual Weapon

The most powerful prayer that we have, after the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass (which is Christ Jesus’ own sacrifice offered to the Eternal Father) is the Holy Rosary. We might think of the rosary as a series of repetitive prayers, but it is far more than that: it is an introduction into Christian meditation. […]

St. Matthew and unlikely disciples

Many of us probably wonder, “why has the Lord Jesus chosen me to be His disciple? I have lots of baggage; I have so many wounds.” The truth is that many of the Lord’s disciples were like us: they were men and women with a “history,” with scars from wounds inflicted by self and/or by […]
