T T C 439. Why does the Decalogue constitute an organic unity? The Ten Commandments form an organic and indivisible whole because each commandment refers to the other commandments and to the entire Decalogue. To break one commandment, therefore, is to violate the entire law.

P Y H —N S At Ponder in Your Heart weekly meetings, we will begin with our common yearning for happiness. “Rediscover Catholicism” by Matthew Kelly takes us on an
adventure of life-changing proportions by addressing some of the most important questions we face today, both as individuals and as a Church. We will discuss topics like—Are you happy? Are you living an authentic life? Do you think you'll find happiness where you're looking? How would you like your life to change? What is God’s dream for your life? Why have so many people rejected Catholicism? What does it mean to
walk with God in the modern world? Do the saints have anything to offer you? Is Jesus still relevant? The group will meet on Thursdays from 6:00—7:30pm in the St. Isadore Room. Books will be provided for a recommended donation of $3.00. Please contact Kristy Linnhoff at 270.727.3432, kar7634@yahoo.com or Megan at the Parish Office 270.753.3876, megan@stleoky.org

S I D L This Sunday is the feast of the Holy Family, which comes on the first Sunday after Christmas Day. Today’s feast celebrates how the humanity of Jesus (including his entire family life) has brought saving significance into the daily rhythms of our human family life. The scriptures offer instruction and encouragement on how to share—within our families, parish families, and the wider human family—the love that God shares with us in Jesus. Selections from Sirach, Psalm 128, and Colossians encourage us to reflect divine love and thus find holiness in all our human relationships. The reading from Matthew’s Gospel offers a living example of love in the actions Joseph took to protect his young family from danger and to nurture them within the larger family of faith of their time.

SAINT THOMAS BECKET (1118-1170)—December 29
To anyone who imagines conflict between religion and politics to be a modern phenomenon, history witnesses otherwise. Martyred under Henry VIII in 1535, Thomas More declared, “I die the king’s good servant, but God’s first!” Thomas Becket could have said the same four centuries earlier. As Henry II’s closest friend and trusted chancellor, Becket, the king presumed, could be counted on, if made archbishop, to deliver the church to royal control. But Becket experienced a profound conversion, confirmed by the ordination liturgy’s rich symbolism of the bishop as Good Shepherd and the church as Bride of Christ. Renouncing secular responsibilities, distributing his wealth to the poor, Thomas became the church’s uncompromising champion. Faced with this “new” Becket, the king’s previous friendship turned into a ferocious, almost irrational hatred. As eight centuries later, Archbishop Romero would be martyred at the altar of Christ’s sacrifice, Becket was slain before the altar of Canterbury Cathedral by royal agents, neither the first nor last good shepherd to lay down his life as the price of freedom for Christ’s church and justice for Christ’s sheep.

and was loved by the youth. Scores of young people were drawn to
him from around the world by a magne sm that con nues even
today, in his sainthood. In his le er to the youth of the world, John
Paul offers young people his
encouragement to respond to Jesus' call
to follow Him during this unique and
cri cally important me of life. To them
he writes: “In you there is hope, for you

P : O F F What is Purgatory? Does it exist? Does it ma er? As professor and
speaker Dr. Mark Miravalle explains, not only is the doctrine of
Purgatory true, and deeply rooted in
Sacred Scripture and Tradi on, but the
prac ce of offering prayers and sacrifices
for the souls of the dead is a cri cally
important responsibility for every

the incredible impact that the Church’s understanding of Mary has
on our spiritual lives, and the profound
way that Marian doctrines and dogmas
safeguard what we believe about her
Son. Using penetra ng insights and
humor, Tim shows how correct
knowledge of our humble Mother reveals
our own iden ty in Christ, and empowers
us to say “Yes” to God!
T V M Masculinity. In recent years, the use of this word has become
controversial, and discussion about it unwelcome or silenced. Is all
masculinity “toxic”? Dr. Tim Gray strongly
asserts that while fallen masculinity does
exist, authen c, God‐given masculinity is a
great virtue that is desperately needed in
our world. Drawing on personal and
cultural examples, Tim challenges men to
face their fears about failing or "striking
out," and encourages them to become the
men they desire to be—loyal, dependable, and beloved friends,
spouses, and fathers—in the image of Jesus Christ, the Perfect
Man.Purchase includes a free MP3 download!
