~I am the living bread that came down from heaven, says the Lord; whoever eats this bread will live forever.~

The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ

Dear Our Lady of the Assumption Parish Family,

Jesus chose Matthew to be his follower, not because Matthew was religious, educated, or saintly. Matthew was none of those. He chose to live a life of wealth and ease. His profession was probably the most corrupt and despised by everyone because tax collectors made themselves wealthy by over-charging and threatening people. Matthew’s heart must have yearned for God, even though he dared not show his face in a synagogue or study God’s law. When Jesus saw Matthew sitting in his office, counting his profit, Jesus spoke only two words – “follow me”. Those two words transformed Matthew from a self-serving apostle into a God-serving apostle who would bring the treasures of God’s kingdom to the poor and needy.

When the Pharisees challenged Jesus’ unorthodox behavior in eating with sinners, Jesus’ defense was quite simple. A doctor doesn’t need to visit healthy people; instead, he goes to those who are sick. Jesus likewise sought out those in the greatest need. Jesus came as the divine physician and good shepherd to care for His people and to restore them to wholeness of life. The orthodox were so preoccupied with their own practice of religion that they neglected to help the very people who needed spiritual care. Their religion was selfish because they didn’t want to have anything to do with people unlike them. Jesus stated His mission in unequivocal terms: I came not to call the righteous, but to call sinners. Ironically, the orthodox were as needy as those they despised.

Have a blessed day.

Yours in Christ,

Father Edward C. Domme
