Gospel (Luke 8:40-56)
When Jesus returned, the crowd
welcomed him, for they were all waiting
for him. And a man named Jairus, an
official of the synagogue, came forward.
He fell at the feet of Jesus and begged
him to come to his house, because he
had an only daughter, about twelve
years old, and she was dying. As he
went, the crowds almost crushed him.
And a woman afflicted with hemorrhages
for twelve years, who (had spent her
whole livelihood on doctors and) was
unable to be cured by anyone, came up
behind him and touched the tassel on his
cloak. Immediately her bleeding
stopped. Jesus then asked, "Who
touched me?" While all were denying it,
Peter said, "Master, the crowds are
pushing and pressing in upon you." But
Jesus said, "Someone has touched me;
for I know that power has gone out from
me." When the woman realized that she
had not escaped notice, she came
forward trembling. Falling down before
him, she explained in the presence of all
the people why she had touched him and
how she had been healed immediately.
He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has
saved you; go in peace."
While he was still speaking, someone
from the synagogue official's house
arrived and said, "Your daughter is
dead; do not trouble the teacher any
longer." On hearing this, Jesus
answered him, "Do not be afraid; just
have faith and she will be saved." When
he arrived at the house he allowed no
one to enter with him except Peter and
John and James, and the child's father
and mother. All were weeping and
mourning for her, when he said, "Do not
weep any longer, for she is not dead,
but sleeping." And they ridiculed him,
because they knew that she was dead.
But he took her by the hand and called
to her, "Child, arise!" Her breath returned
and she immediately arose. He then
directed that she should be given
something to eat. Her parents were
astounded, and he instructed them to
tell no one what had happened.
This is the truth. Peace be with you.
A reading from the Letter of Saint Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians (7:4-11)
Your Blessing Father
I have great confidence in Your, I have great pride in Your; I am filled with
encouragement, I am overflowing with joy all the more because of all our affliction. For
even when we came into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were afflicted in
every wayexternal conflicts, internal fears. But God, who encourages the downcast,
encouraged us by the arrival of Titus, and not only by Your arrival but also by the
encouragement with which he was encouraged in regard to Your, as he told us of Your
yearning, Your lament, Your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced even more. For even if I
saddened Your by my letter, I do not regret it; and if I did regret it (for) I see that that
letter saddened Your, if only for a while), I rejoice now, not because Your were
saddened, but because Your were saddened into repentance; for Your were saddened
in a godly way, so that Your did not suffer loss in anything because of us. For godly
sorrow produces a salutary repentance without regret, but worldly sorrow produces
death. For behold what earnestness this godly sorrow has produced for Your, as well
as readiness for a defense, and indignation, and fear, and yearning, and zeal, and
punishment. In every way Your have shown yourselves to be innocent in the matter.
Praise be to God always.

Message of His Holiness Benedict XVI For Lent 2013
Believing in charity calls forth charity
We have come to know and to believe in the love God has for us (1 Jn 4:16)
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
The celebration of Lent, in the context of the Year of Faith, offers us a valuable
opportunity to meditate on the relationship between faith and charity: between
believing in God the God of Jesus Christ and love, which is the fruit of the Holy
Spirit and which guides us on the path of devotion to God and others.
1. Faith as a response to the love of God
In my first Encyclical, I offered some thoughts on the close relationship between
the theological virtues of faith and charity. Setting out from Saint Johns
fundamental assertion:We have come to know and to believe in the love God has
for us (1 Jn 4:16), I observed that being Christian is not the result of an ethical
choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a
new horizon and a decisive direction Since God has first loved us (cf. 1 Jn
4:10), love is now no longer a mere command; it is the response to the gift of
love with which God draws near to us (Deus Caritas Est, 1).
Faith is this personal adherence which involves all our faculties to the
revelation of Gods gratuitous and passionate love for us, fully revealed in Jesus
Christ. The encounter with God who is Love engages not only the heart but also
the intellect: Acknowledgement of the living God is one path towards love, and
the yes of our will to his will unites our intellect, will and sentiments in the all-
embracing act of love. But this process is always open-ended; love is never
finished and complete (ibid., 17). Hence, for all Christians, and especially for
charity workers, there is a need for faith, for that encounter with God in Christ
which awakens their love and opens their spirits to others.
As a result, love of neighbour will no longer be for them a commandment
imposed, so to speak, from without, but a consequence deriving from their faith, a
faith which becomes active through love (ibid., 31a). Christians are people who
have been conquered by Christs love and accordingly, under the influence of that
love Caritas Christi urget nos (2 Cor 5:14) they are profoundly open to loving
their neighbour in concrete ways (cf. ibid., 33). This attitude arises primarily from
the consciousness of being loved, forgiven, and even served by the Lord, who
bends down to wash the feet of the Apostles and offers himself on the Cross to
draw humanity into Gods love.
Faith tells us that God has given his Son for our sakes and gives us the victorious
certainty that it is really true: God is love! Faith, which sees the love of God
revealed in the pierced heart of Jesus on the Cross, gives rise to love. Love is the
light and in the end, the only light that can always illuminate a world grown dim
and give us the courage needed to keep living and working (ibid., 39). All this
helps us to understand that the principal distinguishing mark of Christians is
precisely love grounded in and shaped by faith (ibid.,7)

Message of His Holiness Benedict XVI For Lent 2013
Believing in charity calls forth charity
We have come to know and to believe in the love God has for us (1 Jn 4:16)
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
The celebration of Lent, in the context of the Year of Faith, offers us a valuable
opportunity to meditate on the relationship between faith and charity: between
believing in God the God of Jesus Christ and love, which is the fruit of the Holy
Spirit and which guides us on the path of devotion to God and others.
1. Faith as a response to the love of God
In my first Encyclical, I offered some thoughts on the close relationship between
the theological virtues of faith and charity. Setting out from Saint Johns
fundamental assertion:We have come to know and to believe in the love God has
for us (1 Jn 4:16), I observed that being Christian is not the result of an ethical
choice or a lofty idea, but the encounter with an event, a person, which gives life a
new horizon and a decisive direction Since God has first loved us (cf. 1 Jn
4:10), love is now no longer a mere command; it is the response to the gift of
love with which God draws near to us (Deus Caritas Est, 1).
Faith is this personal adherence which involves all our faculties to the
revelation of Gods gratuitous and passionate love for us, fully revealed in Jesus
Christ. The encounter with God who is Love engages not only the heart but also
the intellect: Acknowledgement of the living God is one path towards love, and
the yes of our will to his will unites our intellect, will and sentiments in the all-
embracing act of love. But this process is always open-ended; love is never
finished and complete (ibid., 17). Hence, for all Christians, and especially for
charity workers, there is a need for faith, for that encounter with God in Christ
which awakens their love and opens their spirits to others.
As a result, love of neighbour will no longer be for them a commandment
imposed, so to speak, from without, but a consequence deriving from their faith, a
faith which becomes active through love (ibid., 31a). Christians are people who
have been conquered by Christs love and accordingly, under the influence of that
love Caritas Christi urget nos (2 Cor 5:14) they are profoundly open to loving
their neighbour in concrete ways (cf. ibid., 33). This attitude arises primarily from
the consciousness of being loved, forgiven, and even served by the Lord, who
bends down to wash the feet of the Apostles and offers himself on the Cross to
draw humanity into Gods love.
Faith tells us that God has given his Son for our sakes and gives us the victorious
certainty that it is really true: God is love! Faith, which sees the love of God
revealed in the pierced heart of Jesus on the Cross, gives rise to love. Love is the
light and in the end, the only light that can always illuminate a world grown dim
and give us the courage needed to keep living and working (ibid., 39). All this
helps us to understand that the principal distinguishing mark of Christians is
precisely love grounded in and shaped by faith (ibid.,7)
