Lay ministry must be done in service to others and not become ‘self-referential,’ Pope Francis says
ROME— Pope Francis discussed his vision for lay ministry in the Church in an April 22 speech, noting that all baptized people are called to take part in the mission of the Church regardless of whether or not they hold a formal lay ministry title such as lector or catechist. The pope noted in his speech that these instituted ministries “do not represent the full extent of the ministeriality of the Church, which is broader and, ever since the first Christian communities, regards all the faithful.” In addition to temporary services to the Church such as the distribution of holy Communion, laypeople can undertake ministries to help the poor and marginalized, he said. Only in this way may all the baptized be able to discover the meaning of their own life, joyfully experiencing being ‘a mission on this earth,’ that is, being called, in different ways and forms, to ‘bringing light, blessing, enlivening, raising up, healing, and freeing,’ … and letting themselves be accompanied,” he said.

Learning from St. Joseph
On this 4th and last Sunday of Advent, just before Christmas, we are presented with the story of Joseph in his role as the legal husband of Mary and the foster father of Jesus. Joseph to be truly lucky to be chosen in God’s very mysterious providence as Mary’s husband and Jesus’ foster father, we cannot and should not say that if God wants us to be a simple farmer, for example, we would be less lucky. Joseph was, then we would closely follow God’s ways which are always the ways of safety or ultimately those that would lead us to our eternal salvation, even if unavoidable sufferings may be involved.
