Saint Fidelis of Sigmaringen

Martyr (1577-1622) Saint Fidelis was born of noble parents at Sigmaringen in what is now Prussia, in 1577. In his youth he frequently approached the Sacraments, visited the sick and the poor, and spent many hours before the Blessed Sacrament on the altar. For a time he followed the legal profession and was remarkable for his advocacy of the poor and his respectful language towards his opponents. Finding it difficult to be both a rich lawyer and a good Christian, Fidelis entered the Capuchin Order and embraced a life of austerity and prayer. Hair shirts, iron-pointed girdles, and disciplines were penances too light for his fervor. At Weltkirchen, where he was Superior of the convent during an outbreak of the plague, he devoted himself indefatigably to the care of the sick soldiers and citizens. Animated by a desire for martyrdom, he rejoiced at being sent with several fellow Capuchins on a mission to Switzerland, which the newly-founded Congregation of the Propaganda named him to preside. There he braved every peril to rescue souls from the errors of Calvin. When preaching one day at Sevis he was fired at by a Calvinist, but fear of death could not deter him from proclaiming divine truth. After his sermon, when leaving the city he was waylaid by a body of his enemies, who attacked him and tried to force him to embrace their so-called reform. But he said, I came to refute your errors, not to embrace them; I will never renounce Catholic doctrine, which is the truth of all ages, and I fear not death. On this they fell upon him with their daggers; and the first martyr of the Propaganda, losing his life for Christ, went to find in heaven the veritable life his Master promised to all who are losers for His sake. Reflection. We delight in decorating the altars of God with flowers, lights, and jewels, and it is right to do so; but if we wish to offer to God gifts of higher value, let us, in imitation of Saint Fidelis, labor to save souls who would be lost; that is to offer Him the ornaments of paradise which He so ardently longs to acquire.

Todays Epistle (1 St Pet 2:21-25) Dearly beloved, Christ

suffered for us, leaving you an example that you should follow His steps. Who did no sin, neither was guile found in His mouth. Who, when He was reviled, did not revile; when He suffered, He threatened not; but delivered Himself to him that judged Him unjustly; Who His own self bore our sins in His body upon the tree, that we being dead to sins, should live to justice; by Whose stripes you were healed. For you were as sheep going astray, but you are now converted to the shepherd and bishop of your souls.
EXPLANATION: St. Peter teaches the Christians patience in misery

and afflictions, even in unjust persecution, and for this purpose places before them the example of Christ who, though most innocent, suffered most terribly and most patiently. Are we true sheep of the Good Shepherd if at the smallest cross, at every word, we become angry and impatient?

Todays Gospel

(St. John 10:11-16) At that time, Jesus said to the Pharisees: I Am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd giveth His life for His sheep. But the hireling, and he that is not the Shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and flieth; and the wolf catcheth and scattereth the sheep; and the hireling flieth, because he is a hireling, and he bath no care for the sheep. I Am the Good Shepherd, and I know mine, and mine know Me. As the Father knoweth Me, and I know the Father, and I lay down My life for My sheep. And other sheep I have, that are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they shall hear My voice, and there shall be one fold and One Shepherd. QUESTIONS About Todays Gospel: How has Christ proved Himself a good Shepherd? By sacrificing His
life even for His enemies, for those who did not yet love Him (1-St John

4:10; Rom. 5:8), and could not reward Him. He has besides given Himself to us for our food. How are we to know if we are among the sheep of Christ, that is, His chosen ones? If we listen willingly to the voice of the Shepherd in sermons and instructions, in spiritual books and conversations; are obedient to it, and especially give ear and follow the rules of the Church through which the Good Shepherd speaks to us (St Luke 10:16), "for he," says St. Augustine, who has not the Church for his mother, will not have God for his father;" if we gladly receive the food of the Good Shepherd, that is, His sacred Body and Blood in holy Communion; if we are patient and meek as a lamb, freely forgiving our enemies; if we love all men from our heart, do good to them, and seek to bring them to Jesus. Who are the other sheep of Christ? The Gentiles who were not of the fold of Israel, whom Christ sought to bring by His disciples, and now by their successors; into His fold. To these sheep we also belonged by our ancestors. O how grateful we should be to God, that He has brought us into the fold of His Church, and how diligently should we conduct ourselves as good sheep! When will there be but one fold and one shepherd? When, by the prayers of the Church and by her missionaries, all nations shall be converted to the only saving Church, constituting then one Church under one head. Let us pray that this may soon come to pass.

Conservative versus Liberal Christianity

Nowadays, it appears that those who call themselves Christians are divided into two main groupsconservative and liberal (or progressive). The traditional Catholic realizes this is not the true issue in our age of modernism. The true issue in our age, or any other age, is not whether ones beliefs are labeled by the subjective terms liberal or conservative, because by the worlds standards, liberal in one age only becomes conservative in the next age. The real and eternal issue has always been Gods established Truth versus mere liberal and conservative opinions.
