ANSWER TO LAST WEEK’S QUESTION:
What
exactly is “Temporal Punishment” for our sins? “Temporal
Punishment” is what we carry with us into the afterlife. Every
sin, even “venial” sin, contains an unhealthy attachment to
people or things which must be purified, either here on earth
or in the state we call Purgatory following our death. When all
temporal punishment has been purified, we are then ready for
the full rewards of Heaven.
Special Opportunity for Ministers
Do you want your spiritual life grow through your Ministry?
We are offering an interactive evening dealing with the four
“Non-Negotiables” of our faith: a personal relationship with
God, a mellowness of heart and spirit, a sense of social justice
and a community of worship that helps pull it all together. All
Lectors, EMHC’s or any other adult or teen who ministers in
any capacity, are invited to join us from 7:00 to 8:30 pm,
Thursday, November 20th in the choir room.
This is an opportunity for spiritual enrichment and NOT a
training session. Pr esenter s will be DeWayne Mayo and
Bobbie Schauffele. We hope to have all our ministers
participate!
LADIES AUXILIARY OF THE
KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS IN SECURITY
The Ladies Auxiliary are having their annual Craft Fair

Ponderings of a Parochial Vicar
My Dear Parishioners,
In last week’s column, I discussed indulgences. I
have had a few questions about indulgences so I
thought it would be good to talk about them.
“An indulgence is the remission before God of the
temporal punishment due to sin whose guilt has already been forgiven. A properly disposed member of
the Christian faithful can obtain an indulgence under
prescribed conditions through the help of the Church
which, as the minister of redemption, dispenses and
applies with authority the treasury of satisfactions of
Christ and the Saints. An indulgence is partial if it
removes part of the temporal punishment due to sin,
or plenary if it removes all punishment.” (CCC 1471)
(see also Enchiridion Indulgentiarum: Normae et
Concessiones, Apostolic Penitentiary 1999, N1 –
N3)
Think of it like this. You are playing catch with a
friend and the ball goes through the neighbor’s front
window, breaking it. You go to the neighbor and
apologize promising that it will never happen again.
(This is like going to confession). The neighbor forgives you and tells you he isn’t mad, and is happy
you came to him to apologize. (This is like the absolution received in confession). However, even though
the neighbor forgave you, the window is still broken
and someone has to pay to fix it. (This is the temporal punishment). An indulgence is like having insurance to help you pay for the window. By completing the indulgence, some or all of the punishment is
taken away (like some of the cost of a new window is
taken away by insurance).
I hope that you have found this explanation helpful.
Let us remember to pray for each other and, particularly during the month of November, let us pray for
our deceased relatives and friends.
If you have additional questions, please ask me. As
always, any questions that you may have about our
faith, history or Holy Mother Church that you would
like to see in my column, please e-mail me at
Fr.John@TheRomanCollar.com.
