Nineteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time August 8, 2021Page Three ...from Fr. Gerard “This is enough, O LORD! Take my life, for I am no better than my fathers.”As a priest, I have been privileged to share in the joys and sorrows of the lives of God’s people. In recent years, Ihave become more aware of the particular sorrows that come with mental illness, both for the afflicted and theirfamilies and friends. Like physical illness, mental illness is exhibited in various ways, and many times it may gounnoticed. Depression is one of those unnoticed or misunderstood manifestations of mental illness. Left untreatedor ignored, depression can lead to substance abuse and suicide.Mental Health literacy is an important aspiration for all of us to pursue, whether or not we are afflicted or knowsomeone who is. What people in a parish know and believe about mental illness will have a direct impact on aparish’s ability to minister to people with a mental illness and their families. If people mistakenly believe that mentalillness is due to a moral failing or character fault, then that will only serve to increase the stigma, shame, anddiscrimination that individuals who live with mental illness all too often must deal with. On the other hand, if thereis a broad understanding in the parish community that mental illness is, in fact, an illness that is not the fault of theperson with the mental illness, then more compassion, empathy and companionship can be found in the parishcommunity.The dynamic played out in the first reading today is what caused me to share these thoughts with you. The prophetElijah has reached a point of crisis; the opposition of King Ahab had driven him to flee. In his despondency, herequests death, but he is supernaturally provided with food to sustain him on the journey to Horeb, the mountain ofGod, where he will receive a theophany. I am not positing that Elijah is exhibiting mental illness, but he is in despair,and his answer to that desperation is a request that God might end his life. The supernatural food that he receives isnot the answer, but it gives him the strength he needs for the journey that will bring him to a healing encounter withGod. Through the gift of the Holy Eucharist, and our discipleship, we are being called to give others the strengththey need to journey toward a healing encounter with the Lord.As we move forward from the time of pandemic, we are aware that one of the aspects of healing that may havebeen neglected is that pertaining to mental health. Resources for Catholics and Mental Health can be found at thewebsite for the Association of Catholic Mental Health Ministries https://catholicmhm.org/index. At that site, Ifound The Sanctuary Course for Catholics, which is designed to raise awareness and start conversations in localparishes regarding mental health. Over the next few weeks, I intend to take the course and invite others to do so aswell. The Sanctuary Course for Catholics is for anyone who wants to learn about faith and mental health. It requiresno previous training or expertise—just a willingness to engage in dialogue with your faith community. The link forthe course is https://www.sanctuarymentalhealth.org/catholics. If a number of us takes the course, we can build afoundation of support here at St. Rose. If you are interested or have further questions, please contact me.THE SUNDAY MASS OBLIGATION RETURNS– As previously announced, the general dispensation to attend Mass onSundays and Holy Days of Obligation in the Diocese of Rockville Centre will end next Saturday evening with the VigilMass of the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
