February 28.   At the end of the month of February and reflecting on the theme “Love gives families life.” Boris and Juanita who had both been divorced and had remarried shared their thoughts in their prayer group. “I did believe in love when I married very young and Jane was pregnant. But our decision, more or less forced on us by her family, did not work out. I think we did still believe in love, and Juanita and I do now, and we accept that our remarriage is not recognised by the Church.  It has been painful but we can understand that we still belong.”   Reflect, share. Scripture:   Whoever divorces his wife and marries another, commits adultery against her, and if she divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.   Mk 10:1-12.  Pope Francis:  the baptised who are divorced and civilly remarried need to be more fully integrated into Christian communities in the variety of ways possible while avoiding occasions of scandal. The logic of integration is the key to their pastoral care which would allow them to realise that they belong and can have a joyful experience.  AL 299  JUBILEE.       Although the Scriptures preserve Jesus’ words, ever alive and timely, there are moments when he speaks to us inwardly, calls us and leads us to a better place. That better place is his heart. There he invites us to find fresh strength and peace: “Come to me, all who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest” (Mt 11:28).   DN 43-44.   Prayer and action.  Pray for the divorced and remarried that they may experience the love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Choose appropriate action.
