(Maryknoll Mission Archives)<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Amidst the tumultuous backdrop of Executive Order 9066, signed by President Roosevelt in 1942, Maryknoll responded to the doubt of others evolving into hope for Japanese Americans. This order unjustly imprisoned 120,000 Americans of Japanese descent. Maryknoll missioners, who had long nurtured Catholic communities on the West Coast, found themselves navigating an atmosphere of fear and mistrust. In the face of doubt and adversity, the missioners worked tirelessly to protect Japanese Americans, but many were confined to makeshift concentration camps.<\/p>\n Father Hugh Lavery’s extensive outreach in internment camps and Father Leopold Tibesar’s efforts to secure releases for college-aged prisoners exemplify the Manzanar relocation camp.

As life within the camps took a toll, Maryknoll Sisters and Fathers continued to provide spiritual solace, education, and care for orphaned children. Despite the harsh conditions, hope emerged as Maryknollers persisted in their mission. This transformative journey unfolded in the post-war lives of people who went on to become dedicated Maryknoll missioners themselves, embodying a powerful testament to resilience and hope amidst adversity.

When they all saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted. Then Jesus approached and said to them, “All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.”.

Doubt can be seen as a stumbling block. However, paradoxically embracing doubt can be an opportunity for mutual learning, solidarity and growth. If we are grounded in love and understanding, we can find greater clarity. Then together, as missionary disciples, we can live out our baptismal commitment to join the Trinity in the great adventure of mission. Just as the Trinity epitomizes a community of love, we, in their name, become the living embodiment of that love in the world.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_font_size=”26px” background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_padding=”22px|22px|22px|22px|false|false” border_radii=”on|6px|6px|6px|6px” border_width_all=”2px” border_color_all=”#FFC700″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n 6. <\/b>FAITH SHARING<\/b><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n What are the doubts that you and your community need to address and resolve before you can go forth to make new disciples today?<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ header_font=”|700|||||||” header_font_size=”26px” background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_padding=”22px|22px|22px|22px|false|false” border_radii=”on|6px|6px|6px|6px” border_width_all=”2px” border_color_all=”#FFC700″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n 7. <\/b>GO FORTH<\/b><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n This week, commit yourself to accompany one person who is struggling with doubt.
