Today, after they prayed and after Jesus prayed all night, God the Father responded by calling the very ones Jesus asked to pray, and he sent them out to collect the harvest that is ever white and ripe. It points to the central truth that the Lord wants all of us to pray and the Lord wants all of us to recognize that the Father is calling us, in different ways, to be those very laborers strengthened by that prayer, the divine calling, and the divine commissioning.<\/li>\n<li>We see various elements of that harvesting that Jesus sends us out to accomplish.<\/li>\n<li>The first is to proclaim that the Kingdom of Heaven\u00a0is at hand. The Kingdom is at hand because the King is present. The Kingdom of God is, in short, God. It\u2019s where he reigns. To proclaim the Kingdom at hand is to say, \u201cGod is here\u201d and \u201cWe need to let him reign in our lives.\u201d Jesus sent out the 12 and he sends out us to proclaim, not merely with our words but with the way we live, that we\u2019re not alone, that God is alive, that is he is with us, and that letting him reign in our lives\u00a0has made all the difference in saving us and joyfully transforming us.<\/li>\n<li>As part of the proclamation that God is among us, Jesus sends the 12 and us out with his authority to expel demons and heal every disease and illness. We need to be signs of that exorcism, no longer letting the prince of this world, the father of lies, have any dominion over us and bring people to Jesus to experience that same liberation. Likewise we need to be the nurses of the Divine Physician and, as Pope Francis never ceases of saying, healing the wounds of those today. The Church is a field hospital in battle, it\u2019s a trauma unit, and so many are wounded physically, emotionally, relationally, spiritually. We\u2019re sent out as Good Samaritans to try to care for people in their illnesses and to let Jesus and his healing into their lives, remembering that Jesus never healed just for healing sake, but to bring people to the deepest type of healing of all, spiritual healing by faith. And we&#8217;re sent out first not to the furthest ends of the world to strangers, but to the &#8220;lost sheep&#8221; of the &#8220;house of Israel.&#8221; The &#8220;house of Israel&#8221; were those that the apostles might have taken for granted, because they should have known about the kingdom but they were lost even when it was among them at hand. Similarly, we&#8217;re sent out first to those who are lost among us \u2014 to those we know are lost and even to those who we would presume would not be lost but maybe are going through a crisis of faith, even if priests, religious, or lifelong fervent Catholics. Everyone at some point needs a reminder of the Lord&#8217;s presence, of his dominion over the evil one, of his healing power.<\/li>\n<li>As we go out to heal these wounds, it\u2019s key for us to grasp that one of the most important ways we proclaim the message of the kingdom is through our own wounds that have been healed by Jesus. Jesus doesn\u2019t always take our wounds away but he transforms them, just like his wounds in his Risen Body no longer bled. Just like he sent out forgiven sinners to proclaim that forgiveness of sins is possible, so he sends out the healed wounded in order to proclaim that healing of wounds is possible. He has allowed us to be wounded in the past so that he could heal us and so that we could be effective signs to those we meet that they too can receive that same gift. That\u2019s the lesson we learn in the first reading from the story of Joseph the Patriarch. God allowed him to be wounded through his brothers\u2019 envy precisely so that through his wounds he could be a source of divine healing through his brothers. In this he was a Christ-like figure, who did precisely the same thing, seeking to heal\u00a0through his wounds the very people who were inflicting those wounds. Jesus wants us to be similar Christ-like figures. One of the greatest ways we proclaim the reality of the kingdom is not when everything is going well, but when we\u2019re suffering and then we become credible witnesses that if God is with us in our wounds doing his healing work by redeeming our souls and reordering our lives through those wounds, then he can do the same with others.<\/li>\n<li>Today the Church celebrates the feast of Saints Louis and Zelie Martin, the parents of St. Therese of the Child Jesus. Just like the Lord Jesus called the apostles by name to be with him and to send them out, so he called them, and so he calls all sacramentally married couples by name to this same holy discipleship and ardent apostolate. Louis thought at first he had the vocation to be a brother in the Great St. Bernard Hospital Congregation and Zelie a Visitation nun, but despite their willingness, they both realized that the Lord had other plans. One day, on the bridge of St. Leonard in Alencon, they passed each other and Zelie heard a whisper within, &#8220;This is he whom I have prepared for you.&#8221; They discovered that God was calling them to marriage with each other. They married open to the will of God \u2014 159 years ago tomorrow, in 1858, which is why their feast day is today (with St. Henry tomorrow) \u2014 intent upon modeling their marriage on the Holy Family to their mutual sanctification, seeking God&#8217;s will above all. They were intent upon a &#8220;Josephite marriage&#8221; of perpetual mutual continence, but ten months into their marriage, at the advice of a priest friend, they changed their minds and desired as many children as God would provide. He gave them nine, five girls of whom would survive childhood, all five of which would eventually become religious sisters. They went to daily Mass, frequent Confession, gave alms discreetly, provided assistance to the sick and dying, cared for the indigent by getting them to hospitals, and took quite seriously their responsibility for announcing the kingdom to others: they enrolled their children in the Work of Childhood Missions, making large annual donations to the Propagation of the Faith, and donating for the construction of a chapel and a seminary in Canada. Little did they know that their youngest daughter would become a patroness of the Missions! The Lord similarly brought good out of their sufferings: Zelie&#8217;s breast cancer and Louis&#8217; many health problems including dementia. Through their wounds, even through their deaths, they continued like Joseph to share the faith and enfleshed today&#8217;s Gospel.<\/li>\n<li>Today we come to the same Christ who made them saints, to the King himself, to the font of exorcism and the source of healing, the One whom St. Ignatius of Antioch called the \u201cmedicine of immortality.\u201d The Harvest Master has drawn us here in response to our own prayers and those of others to strengthen us for the work of harvesting today, reminding us by Christ\u2019s real presence that the King of the Kingdom of Heaven is with us, healing us, stomping out the devil in us, and sending us to all the lost, mangled and abandoned sheep of our own house, of our common home, with the same medicine, God himself. And we pray that we will do so imitating the fidelity and with the intercession of Saints Louis, Zelie and Therese Martin!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>These were the readings for today\u2019s Mass:\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"bibleReadingsWrapper\">\n<h4>Reading 1\u00a0<a id=\"\/bible\/genesis\/41:55|\" href=\"http:\/\/usccb.us8.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=b927174dbe854683d4b527f98&amp;id=443650507c&amp;e=b55e3798ee\">Gn 41:55-57; 42:5-7a, 17-24a<\/a><\/h4>\n<div class=\"poetry\">When hunger came to be felt throughout the land of Egypt<br \/>\nand the people cried to Pharaoh for bread,<br \/>\nPharaoh directed all the Egyptians to go to Joseph<br \/>\nand do whatever he told them.<br \/>\nWhen the famine had spread throughout the land,<br \/>\nJoseph opened all the cities that had grain<br \/>\nand rationed it to the Egyptians,<br \/>\nsince the famine had gripped the land of Egypt.<br \/>\nIn fact, all the world came to Joseph to obtain rations of grain,<br \/>\nfor famine had gripped the whole world.<\/div>\n<div class=\"poetry\">The sons of Israel were among those<br \/>\nwho came to procure rations.It was Joseph, as governor of the country,<br \/>\nwho dispensed the rations to all the people.<br \/>\nWhen Joseph\u2019s brothers came and knelt down before him<br \/>\nwith their faces to the ground,<br \/>\nhe recognized them as soon as he saw them.<br \/>\nBut Joseph concealed his own identity from them<br \/>\nand spoke sternly to them.<\/div>\n<div class=\"poetry\">With that, he locked them up in the guardhouse for three days.<\/div>\n<div class=\"poetry\">On the third day Joseph said to his brothers:<br \/>\n\u201cDo this, and you shall live; for I am a God-fearing man.<br \/>\nIf you have been honest,<br \/>\nonly one of your brothers need be confined in this prison,<br \/>\nwhile the rest of you may go<br \/>\nand take home provisions for your starving families.<br \/>\nBut you must come back to me with your youngest brother.<br \/>\nYour words will thus be verified, and you will not die.\u201d<br \/>\nTo this they agreed.<br \/>\nTo one another, however, they said:<br \/>\n\u201cAlas, we are being punished because of our brother.<br \/>\nWe saw the anguish of his heart when he pleaded with us,<br \/>\nyet we paid no heed;<br \/>\nthat is why this anguish has now come upon us.\u201d<br \/>\nReuben broke in,<br \/>\n\u201cDid I not tell you not to do wrong to the boy?<br \/>\nBut you would not listen!<br \/>\nNow comes the reckoning for his blood.\u201d<br \/>\nThe brothers did not know, of course,<br \/>\nthat Joseph understood what they said,<br \/>\nsince he spoke with them through an interpreter.<br \/>\nBut turning away from them, he wept.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"bibleReadingsWrapper\">\n<h4>Responsorial Psalm\u00a0<a id=\"\/bible\/psalms\/33:2|\" href=\"http:\/\/usccb.us8.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=b927174dbe854683d4b527f98&amp;id=4412f5491e&amp;e=b55e3798ee\">PS 33:2-3, 10-11, 18-19<\/a><\/h4>\n<div class=\"poetry\">R.
