Gospel Meditation: Bring Peace With You
By: Fr. Jarrod Waugh, CSC, Pastor
When Jesus sends his disciples, two by two, out to the towns and villages he says, “When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’ If a peaceful person lives there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.” As a child, this always made me imagine peace as a ping pong ball (maybe with a dove stamped on it) that would either be kept or swatted back at you. What does this image mean?
This depiction of peace seems to imply that the Peace of Christ is something that the disciples bring with them, and isn’t so much something they create but something they themselves have received and, therefore, something that they share with others. If a popular idiom for peace is something like, “you need to make peace with this [situation],” that will give us the wrong idea. The Peace of Christ is something Jesus GIVES, not something we make or create for ourselves.
There is also a comfort in recognizing that even though the Peace of Christ is something that Jesus gives, it is not something that can be stolen. It is mysterious in this way. It CAN be shared, but it cannot be taken away by force. If you encounter someone who rejects the Peace of Christ, do not worry, because the peace remains with you. Simply wait for another occasion or another person who IS ready to receive this gift (and maybe even a person who once rejected it could perhaps be open to it again in the future).

The Year of Hope
Pope Francis declared 2025 as the Jubilee Year of Hope and has called for this Jubilee Year to "be a moment of genuine, personal encounter with the Lord Jesus.” (Spes Non Confundit, 1). Christ is truly the "Hope that does not disappoint."
As Pilgrims of Hope, we are encouraged to draw closer to God through prayer, study, formation, and pilgrimage. The Diocese of Colorado Springs website offers a number of resources to assist on your journey, including recommendations on books, formations/ studies, ministry resources, podcasts, prayers, and more!

The Colorado Bishops have issued a statement on immigration titled "Welcoming the Stranger, Protecting the Common Good." Click the logo to read the full statement.
“As Catholic Bishops of Colorado, we approach the issue of immigration with prayerful hearts, seeking to guide our communities in a spirit of charity, justice, mercy, and prudence. The call to welcome the stranger is woven into the fabric of our faith, and in standing with immigrants, it is our first concern that they know the love of Jesus Christ and their dignity as human beings. We also recognize the responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of our communities, as well as passing on the teaching of the Church on immigration to those who govern.”
