Gospel Mark 6:7-13 Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits. He instructed them to take nothing for the journey but a walking stick –no food, no sack, no money in their belts. They were, however, to wear sandals but not a second tunic. He said to them, “Wherever you enter a house, stay there until you leave from there. Whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you, leave there and shake the dust off your feet in testimony against them.” So they went off and preached repentance. The Twelve drove out many demons, and they anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them. Reflection When Jesus sends his disciples out, he's not putting them in positions of authority as a power over people. But they come. They spend time with the family they're with. They are cared for by the family, and they in turn, care for the family by giving them the teaching, the truth. Life, light. It's a beautiful image of the oneness in everything that God has created for us. Closing Prayer Father, in this image of church, community of people feeding and nurturing one another is a beautiful image of how the church opens people to the need for repentance. A way of seeing what they've done, what they haven't done that has been contrary to their very nature, to what they want to be. There's a regret in repentance that can be so gently shown to people and bring them into a life in light of God. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices.

Full Text of ReadingsMemorial of Saint Paul Miki and Companions, Martyrs Lectionary: 326The Saint of the day is Saint Paul Miki and CompanionsSaint Paul Miki and Companions' Story Nagasaki, Japan, is familiar to Americans as the city on which the second atomic bomb was dropped, immediately killing over 37,000 people. Three and a half centuries before, 26 martyrs of Japan were crucified on a hill, now known as the Holy Mountain, overlooking Nagasaki. Among them were priests, brothers, and laymen, Franciscans, Jesuits, and members of the Secular Franciscan Order; there were catechists, doctors, simple artisans, and servants, old men and innocent children—all united in a common faith and love for Jesus and his Church. Brother Paul Miki, a Jesuit and a native of Japan, has become the best known among the martyrs of Japan. While hanging upon a cross, Paul Miki preached to the people gathered for the execution: “The sentence of judgment says these men came to Japan from the Philippines, but I did not come from any other country. I am a true Japanese. The only reason for my being killed is that I have taught the doctrine of Christ. I certainly did teach the doctrine of Christ. I thank God it is for this reason I die. I believe that I am telling only the truth before I die. I know you believe me and I want to say to you all once again: Ask Christ to help you to become happy. I obey Christ. After Christ's example I forgive my persecutors. I do not hate them. I ask God to have pity on all, and I hope my blood will fall on my fellow men as a fruitful rain.” When missionaries returned to Japan in the 1860s, at first they found no trace of Christianity. But after establishing themselves they found that thousands of Christians lived around Nagasaki and that they had secretly preserved the faith. Beatified in 1627, the martyrs of Japan were finally canonized in 1862. Reflection Today, a new era has come for the Church in Japan. Although the number of Catholics is not large, the Church is respected and has total religious freedom. The spread of Christianity in the Far East is slow and difficult. Faith such as that of the 26 martyrs is needed today as much as in 1597. hbspt.cta.load(465210, '8a35daeb-7f77-4f4e-969d-24608789362a', {"useNewLoader":"true","region":"na1"}); Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Sts. Peter Baptist, OFM, Paul Miki and Companions, Martyrs (Memorial)

Friends of the Rosary, In a recent reflection, Pope Francis emphasized how Jesus Christ reveals the ultimate criterion by which all history is judged: love. "Whoever loves lives, whoever hates dies," the pope told pilgrims gathered in St. Peter's Square on Feb. 2, the feast of the Presentation of the Lord. "God is present among his people; he lives as a man among men." Jesus embodies universal salvation, an awe-inspiring truth emphasizing that God's redemptive love is fully embodied in one person. Today is also the Memorial of St. Paul Miki, a Japanese Jesuit, and his twenty-five companions (d. 1597), the first East Asian martyrs to be canonized. They were martyred in Nagasaki, Japan, by being raised on crosses and then stabbed with spears. Their executioners were astounded upon seeing their joy at being associated with the Passion of Christ.

The St. Paul Center's daily scripture reflections from the Mass for the Memorial of St. Paul Miki & Companions by Dr. Shane Owens. Paul Miki, Priest, Martyr, & Companions, Martyrs Obligatory Memorial First Reading: First Kings 8: 22-23, 27-30 Responsorial Psalm: Psalms 84: 3, 4, 5 and 10, 11 Alleluia: Psalms 119: 36, 29b Gospel: Mark 7: 1-13 Learn more about the Mass at www.stpaulcenter.com

Gospel Mark 7:1-13 When the Pharisees with some scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus, they observed that some of his disciples ate their meals with unclean, that is, unwashed, hands. (For the Pharisees and, in fact, all Jews, do not eat without carefully washing their hands, keeping the tradition of the elders. And on coming from the marketplace they do not eat without purifying themselves. And there are many other things that they have traditionally observed, the purification of cups and jugs and kettles and beds.) So the Pharisees and scribes questioned him, "Why do your disciples not follow the tradition of the elders but instead eat a meal with unclean hands?" He responded, "Well did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites, as it is written: This people honors me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me; In vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines human precepts. You disregard God's commandment but cling to human tradition." He went on to say, "How well you have set aside the commandment of God in order to uphold your tradition! For Moses said, Honor your father and your mother, and Whoever curses father or mother shall die. Yet you say, 'If someone says to father or mother, "Any support you might have had from me is qorban"' (meaning, dedicated to God), you allow him to do nothing more for his father or mother. You nullify the word of God in favor of your tradition that you have handed on. And you do many such things.” Reflection The indictment of Jesus against the Pharisees reminds us of a very important truth. We have many practices in our religion, many things that we think can not change, that we think are essential. But this gospel reminds us there is one core teaching in all of the practices of religion and that teaching is that you and I have been gifted with this gift of redemption. We're freed of sin. We have no reason to try to earn anything from God by doing any rule or law. We are simply called to listen to the Spirit within us and to follow that spirit. That's what brings us life. It's not about doing. It's about becoming someone infused with spirit. Closing Prayer Father, help us to make distinctions between things that are simply ways of helping us to become who we need to be. And your grace, your mysterious, powerful healing grace. It transforms us. We need to be aware and we need to be open to the transforming grace that you offer in Jesus. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen.
