Recognized in the Breaking of Bread

Last updated on: December 16, 2015 at 9:08 pm By Father Pablo Migone

A few years ago I asked this question to children at a grade school Mass right after reading this very same Gospel passage, the passage of the disciples on the road to Emmaus: “What does this Gospel passage remind you of?” They looked at me puzzled. I’m sure most of them had zoned out during the Gospel since the passage is longer than usual, so I reviewed the passage: Jesus first read and explained Scripture to these very sad and... Read more

Holy Thursday: Thanksgiving for the Priesthood

Last updated on: December 16, 2015 at 9:09 pm By Father Pablo Migone

For generations throughout the centuries Jewish families have gathered to commemorate the night when God freed them from slavery under pharaoh in Egypt and led them into freedom. God ordered the Israelites to keep this memorial feast and they have kept it as we heard in the first reading, as a perpetual institution, eating unleavened bread and a roasted lamb. On a night like tonight, Jesus gathered his disciples to eat this Passover meal, to join in this ancient ritual,... Read more

Bill Clinton on my Alma Mater

Last updated on: March 25, 2016 at 5:43 pm By Father Pablo Migone

Last week President Bill Clinton spoke in Greenville, South Carolina at the Peace Center downtown. During his speech where he spoke on a variety of topics he said the following about my Alma Mater, Furman University, located just north of Greenville: “You could brand Furman if you will … as a place where problems are solved, potential is unleashed,” Clinton said. “People don’t care about politics. They care about the purpose of developing the human potential” in South Carolina and... Read more

Immigration in the Catholic Cafeteria

Last updated on: December 16, 2015 at 9:09 pm By Father Pablo Migone

The term “Cafeteria Catholic” was coined time ago to describe Catholics who pick and choose which Church teachings to espouse and which ones to reject. I remember seeing a t-shirt when Pope Benedict XVI was elected that read “the cafeteria is now closed” with a large picture of Cardinal Ratzinger. This meant no more picking and choosing from among Catholic teachings, it’s either all or nothing. The well-known American author and political activist George Weigel has always presented himself as... Read more

From Death into Life

Last updated on: March 25, 2016 at 5:43 pm By Father Pablo Migone

As Jesus approached Bethany, Martha went out to meet him with sad news, his friend Lazarus was dead. Martha was upset, almost blaming Jesus for the death of Lazarus, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” Jesus gently calms Martha with words of hope and continues on to Bethany. He goes to the tomb, weeps and is perturbed. He asks for the stone to be rolled away and after a brief prayer all he does... Read more

Click here for English Al acercarse Jesús a Betania, Marta salió a recibirlo con la triste noticia que su amigo Lázaro había muerto. Marta estaba perturbada, casi culpando a Dios por la muerte de Lázaro, “Señor, si hubieras estado aquí, mi hermano no habría muerto.” Jesús calma a Marta con palabras de esperanza y continúa camino a Betania.

Mass at the Border – Misa en la Frontera

Last updated on: December 16, 2015 at 9:09 pm By Father Pablo Migone

Two days ago a group of Catholic bishops led by Cardinal Sean O’Malley of Boston celebrated a Mass at the U.S.-Mexico border in Nogales, Arizona. Participants of the Mass were at both sides of the border fence. The bishops along with Cardinal O’Malley decried the indifference towards the suffering of migrants under the current U.S. immigration system and called for action on immigration reform. They called upon Congress to end family separations and requested the administration to limit deportations. They... Read more

In 2008 I began a blog. I named it Labyrinthine Mind inspired by the beautiful poem “Hound of Heaven” by Francis Thompson. It felt awkward broadcasting my ideas and thoughts into cyberspace. Who would read? I only posted four times in 2008, even less the following year. Starting on April 2010 however I began to write on a consistent manner. I was writing homilies every week and soon after I began to write for the diocesan newspaper. I have now... Read more
