Lord, on this Labor Day, we celebrate the work we do, and we thank You for the blessing of our jobs.

We ask for those seeking employment that You guide them in their search for work.

We ask for guidance when we are confused. We ask for patience when working through conflicts.

We ask for strength to complete each day. We ask for rest when we are weary.

We ask that You be with those whose faces we might never see but who work tirelessly

each day for the good of us all. Amen.

HEARING AND DOING

It is made clear throughout the Gospels and Epistles that our discipleship, as followers of Jesus, is not over until our bodily death. In today’s second reading we are urged, “Be doers of the word and not hearers only” (James 1:22).

Discipleship is hard. Sometimes we have “reasons” why we cannot do things—we are too tired, too old, too sick, too needy. We are too busy with work, with children, with other responsibilities. Yet some of the best “prayers” are people

confined by illness or disability. Some of the wisest listeners are the elderly, who have a lifetime of patience and wisdom to draw on. Some of the most generous givers are those who have endured poverty and suffering themselves. Some of

the most admired organizers are those who delegate and let other people shine. And let us not forget the heroes who put their lives on the line in time of crisis. Not everyone is called to heroism, but all of us are called to live generously and

selflessly. The opportunities are endless: in our families, our parish, our neighborhood or town, and in places around the world. Try to balance prayer, action and financial giving. A busy mother with three toddlers can hardly spend hours in

prayer or at church. A man who must work two jobs to support his family has limited time to volunteer, and a person on a tiny fixed income cannot give large donations to the church or charity. However, the busy mother can talk to God as she chases after her little ones. The hardworking man can help with an occasional parish event, and the person with a

limited income can put a steady few dollars in the collection each week. Everyone can be a “doer.”

Labor Day originated in 1882 in New York City under the aegis of the Knights of Labor. Congress made it a

legal holiday in 1894. Observing it this week gives us a good opportunity to reflect on the Catholic Church’s

social teachings for the last century or so. On May 15, 1891, Pope Leo XIII issued the encyclical Rerum Nova-rum on the condition of the working classes and labor. In

doing so, he initiated a century in which Catholic teaching became more and more involved in the social

issues of the day. Unfortunately relegated to the shadows while the bright

lights of controversy shine on other issues, Catholic social teaching remains largely unknown to many

Catholics. It is the Catholic Church that championed such notions as a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work, and continues to uphold the dignity of the human person against attacks from governments and corporations.

Nearly every pope since Leo XIII has issued teachings on the subject. Take some time this Labor Day to familiarize

yourself with some aspect of the Church’s social teachings. In doing so, you will be taking responsibility as a member of the Body of Christ to commit yourself to

the care of your neighbor.

After Sunday Mass and a very long & boring sermon, the parishioners filed out of church saying nothing to the Pastor. Towards the end of the line was a thoughtful person who always

commented on Father’s sermons. “Father, today your sermon reminded me of the peace and love of

God!” The Pastor was thrilled.

“Why, thank you, my son. No one has ever said that about one of my sermons before. Tell me why.”

“Well,” said the parishioner, “it reminded me of the Peace of God because it passed all understanding

and the Love of God because it endured forever!”
