A Newsletter for Appreciating and Celebrating the Church’s Prayer
For Your
The Waters of Life
CSI: Catholic Scene
Investigation
During the season of Easter, the Church
suggests that we pray the Apostles’
Creed instead of the Nicene Creed, the
one we usually pray at Sunday Mass. This
is because the Apostles’ Creed is more
directly connected to the renewal of our
baptismal promises. Can you pray both
of these creeds by heart? Find a copy of
each, and see what resemblances and
differences there are between the two.
Quick Quiz
We renew our baptismal promises at
the Easter Vigil and on Easter Sunday.
At what other celebrations are these
promises renewed?
a) confirmation
b) the baptism of an infant
c) viaticum (final Communion .
before death)
d) all of the above
Answer: (d) The Church calls us to
renew our baptism faith at all of these
significant moments in our individual
and communal lives of faith.
Formation
L
ent is the springtime of the Church. During that time when our life of faith is
renewed at its very source, we seek to make our lives a more fertile place to
receive the seeds of God’s love. Easter, then, is the Church in the full flower of its
summertime, the season of life, the season of Resurrection.
Just as water is important to these two seasons in nature, so it is in the seasons of
our Church year as well. The Church teaches that the purpose of Lent is to lead us to
Easter, and so we are to observe Lent primarily through reminders of our baptism, the
source of our life in Christ (see the Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, 109).
Easter is also a season of water, the water that washes us clean and sustains our life.
At the Easter Vigil new water is blessed, and the elect are baptized in that water and the
Holy Spirit. Through the water and the Spirit, they put on Christ; they are “Christ-ened”
into lives of faithful, flowering, and fruitful discipleship.
When we are sprinkled with holy water at Mass during the Easter season, the Church
gives us some scripture passages to sing. These make for good prayer starters any time
during the Easter season, as we reflect on the life in Christ we received through the water
and Spirit of our own baptism:
• Ezekiel 47:1-2, 9: Ezekiel’s vision of water flowing from the Jerusalem temple
• Daniel 3:77, 79: All the waters of creation bless God.
• 1 Peter 2:9: Baptism makes us a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a chosen people
in God’s light.

Durante el tiempo de Pascua, la Iglesia
sugiere que recemos el Credo de los
Apóstoles en lugar del Credo de Nicea,
el que generalmente rezamos en la Misa
dominical. Esto se debe a que el Credo
de los Apóstoles está más directamente
vinculado con la renovación de nuestras
promesas bautismales. ¿Puedes rezar

L
a Cuaresma es el tiempo para limpiar y preparar el terreno espiritual. Durante este
tiempo, en el cual nuestra vida de fe se renueva en su mismísima fuente, buscamos
hacer de nuestra vida un lugar más fértil para recibir las semillas de amor de Dios.
El Tiempo de Pascua es el pleno florecer o Resurrección de la Iglesia, un tiempo
para nutrir y dejar crecer esas semillas.
Al igual que el agua es tan importante en estos procesos de la naturaleza, también lo
es en estos tiempos litúrgicos del calendario de nuestra Iglesia. La Iglesia nos enseña que
el propósito de la Cuaresma es llevarnos a la Pascua, y por lo tanto debemos observar la
Cuaresma principalmente por medio de aquello que nos recuerde nuestro Bautismo, la
fuente de nuestra vida en Cristo (ver Constitución sobre la Sagrada Liturgia, 109).
La Pascua también es un tiempo de agua, el agua que nos limpia y preserva nuestra
vida. En la Vigilia Pascual se bendice agua nueva, y se bautiza a los Elegidos con esa agua
y el Espíritu Santo. Por medio del agua y del Espíritu se revisten de Cristo; son bautizados
a la vida de discípulos fieles, florecientes y fructíferos.
Cuando nos rocían con agua bendita en la Misa durante el tiempo de Pascua, la
Iglesia nos entrega algunos pasajes de la Sagrada Escritura para cantar. Estos sirven
para comenzar a orar en cualquier momento durante el tiempo de Pascua, a medida que
reflexionamos sobre la vida en Cristo que recibimos por el agua y el Espíritu de nuestro
propio Bautismo:
• Ezequiel 47:1–2.9: Visión de Ezequiel de agua que mana del templo de Jerusalén
• Daniel 3:77, 79: Todas las aguas de la creación bendicen a Dios.
• 1 Pedro 2:9: El Bautismo nos convierte en un sacerdocio real, una nación
santa, un pueblo elegido a la luz de Dios.

“Come, Holy Spirit” from
In Holy Harmony:
Prayers for Parish Musicians
N
ot long ago, I attended a
liturgical music conference
as a workshop presenter,
and was also in attendance
for the conference keynote address.
The speaker described to us what had
happened to him one morning at a
Sunday Eucharist at which he was to
preside and preach. It was the feast
of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross,
celebrated on a Sunday. Unbeknownst
to him, the musician had switched
the opening song to “Morning Has
Broken” because it was raining (“Sweet
the rain’s new fall . . . ”). After our
laughter subsided, he lamented this
change, since he’d based his homily on
the proper entrance antiphon for that
day: “We should glory in the cross of
our Lord, Jesus Christ.” He used this
story to illustrate the importance of
using the proper entrance antiphon at
Sunday liturgy.
It seemed to me that this story could
also have illustrated the importance of
communication between musicians
and clergy. Had the musician done a
quick check-in that Sunday morning

before making the switch, the situation
could have been avoided. I’d think that
if a priest knew the parish musician
had a propensity for making such
changes, he’d check to make sure the
proper antiphon was still in place.
We were not told what opening
song was originally scheduled; based
on the story, I presumed it was the
proper antiphon. This led me to surmise
that the musician at this liturgy wasn’t
the same musician who scheduled the
proper antiphon. In my experience,
musicians who utilize the proper
antiphons tend not to replace them on
the basis of meteorological conditions.
One incorrect assumption this
story might have led us to, however,
is that the proper entrance antiphons
always make this kind of direct
connection to the day. The last time
the feast of the Exaltation of the Holy
Cross occurred on a Sunday was in
2008. The following Sunday (Twentyfifth Sunday in Ordinary Time), the
entrance antiphon was “I am the
Savior of all people, says the Lord.
Whatever their troubles, I will answer
their cry, and I will always be their
Lord” (from Psalm 37). The Lectionary
readings for that Sunday, from Year A,
were Isaiah 55 (“Seek the Lord while he
may be found”), Psalm 145 (“The Lord

is near”), Philippians 1 (“Christ will be
magnified in my body”), and Matthew
20 (parable of the generous vineyard
owner). The proper entrance antiphon—
the same in The Roman Missal and
Graduale Romanum, itself not a
terribly common occurrence—wouldn’t
have had the direct connectedness that
it does on the Exaltation of the Holy
Cross. I am not sure if its connection
would be better in Years B or C, but
this points to another sticking point
with using the proper antiphons: they
remain fixed, against our Lectionary’s
three-year rotation.
The story might also have illustrated
the need for the solid liturgical/
pastoral formation of musicians. Such
a musician would have known that a
well-chosen entrance song, such as
“Lift High the Cross” or “We Acclaim
the Cross of Jesus,” trumped a singing
weather report. This also points out
that we cannot say that only the proper
entrance antiphon text can accomplish
its purpose; any number of selections
from the familiar hymn repertoire
would have connected to the homily
that day.
I’m not opposing the use of
the proper entrance antiphons in
the liturgy. I am in full agreement
with those who say they are a sadly
unknown, under-utilized treasure
of our heritage. Our worship truly
would be richer if we used them more
frequently. But I also think that their
use, particularly in their current state,
has a few shortcomings to overcome.

ast year, Chris Padgett came to

fruit as we publish his music,
recordings, and other writing. If you

com. Chris proposed that he craft
and record a “Divine Mercy” project.
While I was aware of St. Faustina, who
recorded revelations of the Lord in the
1930s, and of the designation of the
Second Sunday of Easter as Divine
Mercy Sunday, I had some research to
do in order to collaborate with Chris in
shaping this project.
It occurred to me that many of you
in your parish life may also be hearing
about the Divine Mercy, and may be
wondering what it is all about and
what is expected of you on the Second
Sunday of Easter or at a devotion like
the chaplet. Here is a short summary of
what I learned.
We read in St. Faustina’s diary that
Jesus requested that the Second Sunday
of Easter be celebrated as a feast of
mercy. On April 30, 2000, during his
homily at her canonization, Pope John
Paul II announced that the Second
Sunday of Easter would from then on
be called Divine Mercy Sunday; the
newly translated Missal calls this day
Second Sunday of Easter or Sunday of
the Divine Mercy.
The Web site of the Marians of
the Immaculate Conception (http://
thedivinemercy.org) points out the
theme of mercy in the scripture
readings of that Sunday, and urges
priests to preach about mercy. There
is no call to alter the Mass on this
solemnity; for more about this see
the excellent set of frequently asked
questions on this site. One idea is to
display an image of the Divine Mercy,
and provide for veneration of the image
after Mass. It is also very clear that the
message of Divine Mercy is a mandate
to deeds of mercy, not merely a set of
meeting place

This devotion consists of a few prayers

are very good tools if this is new to you as
it was to me. After some initial prayers,
the following is prayed on each small
bead: “For the sake of His sorrowful
Passion, have mercy on me and on
the whole world.” On each larger bead
between the decades, “Eternal Father, I
offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and
Divinity of your dearly beloved Son,
our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for
our sins and those of the whole world.”
These prayers are chanted, most often
with a leader intoning the first half and
all responding. Chris Padgett is crafting
his own melodies for these prayers, and
interspersing songs throughout, much
like the reflective music that might be
added to a communal Way of the Cross,
scriptural rosary, or Service of Easter
Lessons and Carols.
These devotions remind us to
celebrate God’s goodness and mercy
and to pray for the whole world;
with Jesus as our example, we pledge
ourselves to spiritual and corporal acts
of mercy.

In transition; please be gentle
Dear Pastor Al:
Even though we started using the
new translation last November, there
are some people in church who still
use the old responses. I turn around
show them the worship aid with the
new ones, but no luck. What should
I do?

PASTOR AL notes

“Pastor Al”
I
Dear R2R:
know where you’re coming from.
It seems we did a mountain
of preparation for the new
translation—workshops, lectures,
homilies, discussions, pew cards,
bulletin inserts, reminders, rehearsals,
and worship aids. Nevertheless, come
last Advent, some people were taken
by surprise! Several months in, we
can still hear “And also with you,” or
“one in being with the Father”—you
name it. It’s tough, isn’t it? We come
to church to pray and be filled with
Christian charity . . . only to find that
charity sorely tested before we get
out the door!
One possibility to consider is
that perhaps these people are just
returning to us after an extended
absence. In that case, we need to be
welcoming and helpful, because this
is definitely a cause for rejoicing!
All in all, there’s hope in our
history. If you look to the past, you’ll
realize that every time there has been
a significant change in the way we
worship, there has been a time of
transition. Some people accept the
change and grasp it immediately. For
others, it takes a while—sometimes
a long while. When the new Order
of Mass was introduced back in
the 1970s, people struggled with
different responses for the dialogues
and changes in the familiar ritual.
But gradually things settled down.
People got used to “the new Mass.”

What had been strange and new
became second nature.
The same thing happened when
lay people began assisting the priest
and deacon in distributing the Body
and Blood of Christ. Some welcomed
the change; others really struggled
with the reality that people like them—
“ordinary” people—could administer
the consecrated species as the priest did.
But years passed, and things changed.
Suddenly, it seemed natural for lay
people to minister at Communion
time, to take Communion to people
in hospitals, or to lead Communion
services on occasion.
With both of these major changes,
it took people time—in some cases, a
long time—to get adjusted. But once
they did, people not only accepted the
change, but found the beauty in it.
And now, most of us wouldn’t have it
any other way!
Hopefully, that will be the same
If you look
to the past,
you’ll realize that
every time there
has been

we worship,

of transition.
with the historic change to the
Missal that we’re living through now.
Eventually the changes will cease to
be distracting and become second
nature to us. And we’ll begin to find
the beauty in the new prayers.
That being said, what do you do
about the people who are still stuck
in the past? You can gently (gently!)
hand them a worship aid. Even if
you’ve already memorized the new
texts yourself, holding the worship
aid might be a way of letting the
people around you know that there’s
a guidebook to help them. But be
gentle. Unity of posture and response
is so important in our worship; it’s
a sign of our unity as a believing
community, a sign of our oneness in
Christ. We can’t build unity without
charity.
I am reminded of the favorite
saying of Blessed Pope John XXIII:
“Listen to everything, forget much,
correct little.” It’s wise advice for
pastors and parishioners, don’t you
think?
God bless you and love you.

From Performer to Pray-er:
Working with Children and Youth
by
Vivian E. Williams
T
he Catholic school in which I taught had a talent show at the end of the year. It was quite a big
deal. The culmination was a number performed by the whole eighth grade class, and each year
my teaching partner and I searched for something big enough to include every student.
I often approached preparation for Mass in that way: every student must have a role.
This approach led us to look desperately for things to carry in procession and sometimes narrate the
procession. We divided the eight intercessions among eight people and the readings between two or
three voices. The passing of the microphone became its own liturgical action!
What I didn’t realize is that we all already have an essential role at Eucharist—the primary minister
of any liturgy is the assembly. The Catechism of the Catholic Church affirms this (see #114). We help
our students best by helping them understand that our most important participation is in the praying,
responding, and acclaiming. Mass without the assembly is like playing football in an empty stadium.
You can do it, but the experience is incomplete.
Our church teaches that important parts of liturgy literally belong to all of us. The General Instruction
of the Roman Missal says our responses and acclamations are truly significant (#34). The Eucharistic
Prayer is our prayer, voiced by the priest, in which we join ourselves to Christ’s passion, death, and
resurrection (#78). The “Amen” we sing at the end affirms the entire prayer.
But what does all this mean?

De actuante a orante:
trabajo con niños y jóvenes
por
Vivian E. Williams
E
n la escuela católica donde enseñaba tenía un concurso de talentos al final del año escolar. Era
bastante importante. El punto culminante era la presentación que hacían todos los estudiantes
del octavo grado, y cada año mi colega maestro y yo buscábamos algo lo suficientemente
grande como para incluir a todos los estudiantes.
A menudo abordaba la preparación para la Misa de la misma manera: cada estudiante debe tener
un rol. Este enfoque nos llevó a buscar desesperadamente cosas que llevar en la procesión y a veces a
narrar la procesión. Dividimos las ocho intercesiones entre ocho personas y las lecturas entre dos o tres
proclamadores. ¡Pasar el micrófono se convirtió en su propia acción litúrgica!
De lo que no me di cuenta es que todos desempeñamos un papel esencial en la Eucaristía ya que el
primer ministro de cualquier liturgia es la asamblea. Esto lo afirma el Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica
(ver #1141) La mejor manera de asistir a nuestros estudiantes es ayudarlos a comprender que la más
importante participación es rezar, responder y aclamar. Una Misa sin asamblea es como jugar fútbol en
un estadio vacío. Se puede jugar, pero la experiencia es incompleta.
Nuestra Iglesia enseña que partes importantes de la liturgia literalmente nos pertenecen a todos. La
Ordenación General del Misal Romano dice que nuestras respuestas y aclamaciones son verdaderamente
significativas (#34). La Plegaria Eucarística es nuestra plegaria, pronunciada por el sacerdote, a la cual
nos unimos en la Pasión, Muerte y Resurrección de Cristo (#78). El “Amén” que cantamos al final afirma
la oración por entero.
¿Pero qué significa todo esto?

Experience and mystagogy
Offer older children and teens
some mystagogy on the implications
of the Eucharistic Prayer. Mystagogy
is a way of reflecting on an experience
to discover meaning. Begin by asking
the students about their experience
of the Eucharistic Prayer. What have
they heard and seen during the
prayer? What does it do? To whom
does it belong? Most likely they will
not know it is offered on behalf of
everyone present (Constitution on the
Sacred Liturgy, #33).
Give them a copy of the Holy,
Holy, Memorial Acclamation, and
Great Amen, and ask what these
acclamations do. Why do we usually
sing them? What are we saying? There
are no wrong answers in mystagogy
because the answers come from the
individual’s experience. The leader’s
response should be “Thank you.” If
a question or statement comes up
that needs addressing, do it after the
mystagogy. If necessary say, “That’s
a good question; let’s discuss it after
mystagogy.”
Invite them to enter into a
Eucharist-type experience. Explain
that it is a time during which they’ll
be asked to think and talk about the
Eucharistic Prayer more specifically.
Sit around a table that has a cloth of
liturgical color, a lit candle, a plate
with a round loaf of bread and a glass
with wine or grape juice on it. If you
have a Roman Missal, include it.
Choose a Eucharistic Prayer
and divide it into sections according
to the General Instruction of the
Roman Missal, #79. Formulate some
questions and/or catechesis that will
help the students think about and
discuss the images and implications of
the section. Not all questions need to
be answered out loud. Some may call
for silent reflection.
Have someone take the priest’s
role, reading the prayer while the rest
make the responses and acclamations.
Sing the acclamations. If you can’t

lead, invite a cantor or choir member
to assist. We’ll use Eucharistic Prayer
II as an example.
We begin all of our Eucharistic
Prayers in a dialogue that ends with
the priest saying, “Let us give thanks
to the Lord our God.” We reply, “It is
right and just.” Ask, “Why is it right
and just for us to give God thanks and
praise?” Let people think for a minute
and then solicit answers.
The next place to pause might be
after the epiclesis. We ask the Holy
Spirit to “come like dewfall” and make
our gifts holy. Ask, “Have you ever
seen dew in the morning? What is it?
How does it look and feel? How can
the Holy Spirit be like dewfall? Why
is ordinary bread and wine considered
a gift? Who’s responsible for growing/
making/giving these gifts?”
After the institution narrative
we might say, “Jesus says, ‘Do this
in memory of me.’ Do what? Is Jesus
only talking about taking the bread
and wine?” Stop again after the
offertory where “we offer you, Lord,
the Bread . . . and Chalice . . . ” The
Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy
says we not only offer Christ, but our
entire selves (#48). How did Christ
offer himself in self-sacrifice? Who
in my family or neighborhood is an
example of self-sacrifice? How can I
offer myself at home and at school?
This last question may be answered in
silence.
In our intercessions, we ask
God to make us one through our
communion and make the whole
Church charitable. What would a
truly charitable Church look like?
Who’s responsible for making the
Church charitable? Finally, we need to
contemplate the end of the Eucharistic
Prayer when we sing our “Amen.” Are
we only saying “yes” to the doxology,
the praise of God? Is there anything
else? What difference should this
“yes” make in my/our everyday life
with family, friends—even those I
don’t like?
Imagery and understanding
Illuminate the mystagogy with
a PowerPoint slide show. As we pray
about how we rightly and justly
praise and thank God, show images of
the universe, the earth, and families.
Images of the Holy Spirit, bread, and
wine might illustrate the epiclesis. At
the end of the Eucharistic Prayer in
the doxology we might use images
of Christ surrounded by children, as
shepherd, crucified, and enthroned.
In the final conversation, in
small groups, ask if they have a new
understanding. Was there something
they particularly liked or didn’t?
Why? Ask someone to keep notes
and report back to the whole group.
This kind of mystagogy can be
adapted for length, for age, and for
any part of the Mass. For young
children you would do only one or
two sections at a time. If we ever want
to realize the vision of Vatican II of
a Church that is participating fully,
consciously, and actively, we have
to help the assembly see the Mass as
their responsibility. Mystagogy can
help deepen that understanding and
foster that participation.

Experiencia y mistagogia
Ofrecemos a los niños mayores y
a los adolescentes alguna mistagogia
sobre las implicaciones de la
Plegaria Eucarística. La mistagogia
es una manera de reflexionar sobre
una experiencia para descubrir su
significado. Comenzamos preguntando
a los estudiantes sobre su experiencia de
la Plegaria Eucarística. ¿Qué escucharon
y vieron durante la plegaria? ¿Qué
hace? ¿A quién le pertenece? Lo más
probable es que no sepan que se ofrece
por todos los presentes (Constitución
sobre la Sagrada Liturgia, #33).
Deles una copia del Santo Santo,
de la Aclamación Memorial y del Gran
Amén y luego pregúnteles qué hacen
estas aclamaciones. ¿Por qué solemos
cantarlas? ¿Qué es lo que dicen?
En la mistagogia no hay respuestas
equivocadas porque estas provienen
de la experiencia de cada individuo.
La respuesta del facilitador debe ser
“gracias”. Si surge una pregunta o
afirmación que necesita una aclaración,
hágalo después de la mistagogia. De
ser necesario diga: “Esa es una buena
pregunta. Hablemos sobre ella después
de la mistagogia”.
Invítelos a entrar en una experiencia
de tipo eucarístico. Explique que es el
tiempo durante el cual se les pedirá
que piensen y hablen sobre la Plegaria
Eucarística de manera más específica.
Siéntense en torno a una mesa cubierta
con un mantel de color litúrgico, con
una vela encendida, un plato con una
hogaza redonda de pan y una copa con
vino o jugo de uva. Si tiene el Misal
Romano, inclúyalo.
Elija una Plegaria Eucarística y
divídala en varias secciones según la
Ordenación General del Misal Romano
(#79). Formule algunas preguntas y/o
catequesis que ayude a los estudiantes a
pensar y a dialogar sobre las imágenes
e implicaciones de la sección. No todas
las preguntas necesitan responderse en
voz alta. Algunas pueden requerir de un
tiempo de reflexión en silencio.
Haga que alguien desempeñe el

papel del sacerdote y lea la plegaria
mientras los demás entonan las
respuestas y aclamaciones. Canten las
aclamaciones. Si usted no puede dirigir,
invite al cantor o a un miembro del
coro para que le ayude. Emplearemos
la Plegaria Eucarística II como ejemplo.
Iniciamos todas nuestras Plegarias
Eucarísticas en un diálogo que termina
con el sacerdote que dice: “Demos gracias
al Señor, nuestro Dios”. Respondemos:
“Es justo y necesario”. Pregunte: “¿Por
qué es justo y necesario que nosotros
le demos gracias y alabanza a Dios?”
Deje que piensen por un minuto y luego
solicite respuestas.
La siguiente pausa sería después de
la epíclesis. Pedimos que la “efusión del
Espíritu” santifique los dones. Pregunte:
“¿Han visto la efusión del rocío en la
mañana? ¿Qué es? ¿Qué apariencia
tiene y cómo se siente? ¿Cómo puede el
Espíritu Santo ser como el rocío? ¿Por
qué consideramos que el pan y el vino
son dones? ¿Quién es responsable por
cultivar/hacer/dar estos dones?”.
Después del relato de la institución
podríamos decir: “Jesús dice: ‘Hagan
esto en conmemoración mía’. ¿Hacer
qué? ¿Se refiere Jesús solo a tomar el
pan y el vino?” Deténgase nuevamente
después del ofertorio donde “te
ofrecemos, Señor el Pan … y el Cáliz….”
La Constitución sobre la Sagrada
Liturgia dice que no solo ofrecemos a
Cristo, sino a nosotros mismos (#48).
¿Cómo se ofreció Cristo en sacrificio?
¿Quién en mi familia o vecindario es
un ejemplo de auto-sacrificio? ¿Cómo
puedo ofrecerme a mí mismo en la
escuela y en el hogar? Esta última
pregunta puede responderse en silencio.
En nuestras intercesiones pedimos
que Dios nos haga uno mediante
nuestra comunión y haga de toda la
Iglesia un signo de amor. ¿Cómo sería
una Iglesia que es verdadero signo de
caridad? ¿Quién es responsable de hacer
que la Iglesia sea un signo de caridad?
Finalmente, necesitamos contemplar el
final de la Plegaria Eucarística cuando
cantamos nuestro “Amén”. ¿Decimos “sí”
solamente a la doxología, la alabanza
a Dios? ¿Hay algo más? ¿Qué impacto
tiene ese “sí” en mi/nuestra vida con
la familia, las amistades y hasta con
aquellos que no me caen bien?
Imágenes y entendimiento
Ilumine la mistagogia con una
presentación de diapositivas en
PowerPoint. Al rezar que es justo y
necesario alabar y dar gracias a Dios,
muestre imágenes del universo, de
la Tierra y de las familias. Imágenes
del Espíritu Santo, del pan, y del
vino pueden ilustrar la epíclesis. Al
final de la Plegaria Eucarística en la
doxología podemos usar imágenes de
Cristo rodeado de niños, como pastor,
crucificado y en su trono.
Al final de la conversación, en
grupos pequeños pregunte si han
entendido algo nuevo. ¿Hay algo
en particular que les gustó o no les
gustó? ¿Por qué? Pida que alguien
tome notas y dé su informe al grupo
grande.
Este tipo de mistagogia se puede
adaptar en duración, según la edad,
y para cualquier parte de la Misa.
Para niños pequeños yo tomaría
solo una o dos secciones a la vez. Si
alguna vez queremos hacer concreta
la visión del Vaticano II de una
Iglesia que participa en forma plena,
consciente y activa, debemos ayudar
a la asamblea a entender que la Misa
es su responsabilidad. La mistagogia
puede ayudar a profundizar esta
noción y fomentar esa participación.

The new translation of
the Mass for a new generation
by
Chris Padgett
H
ey, let’s all go to Mass! I hear there’s a new translation!”
I bet you’ve heard that from your kids lots of times
already.
Of course I’m kidding. We can, however, ask
why there is always such an eagerness for sporting events,
school performances, gadgets and new games, phones, computers,
music . . . but apathy is in abundance when it comes to spiritual
matters. I think we can address this topic best by looking at what
young people are interested in. I’m sure you’ll not be terribly
surprised since it’s what we all are looking for: social interaction,
or authentic connection. The great thing about this common desire
to interact with another is that we have the perfect springboard for
us to launch into dialogue with young and old alike: the relational
connections made at Mass.
Reaching out
Kids want to be connected! The old telephone commercial that said, “Reach
out and touch someone!” still has a truthful ring about it. We were not meant
to go through this journey alone—connecting with those around us helps us
process difficulties, realize possibilities, and dream impossibilities. How does
this relate to all that is going on with the new translation for the Mass, and the
difficulty of getting our young people interested in the liturgy? Let’s do a little
remedial catechesis for starters.
14 AIM
A deeper understanding of
connectedness
First, Mass is the most intimate
connection we can have with our
God, this side of eternity. To receive
Jesus in the Eucharist is to reach the
source and summit of our faith. It is
this relationship that we all long for
the most. Second, any young person
who has ever been in love knows
that a relationship isn’t always about
receiving. In fact, most kids will save
their money and reserve their time
so that they can spend both things
with (or on) their significant other.
They will go out of their way to pick
out a special gift, and this generosity
continues (sometimes even beyond
marriage!).
In all actuality, there is recognition
from the start that a relationship is
about giving and receiving.
Giving and receiving
The liturgy is a constant giving
and receiving between Christ the
Groom and his Bride the Church. We
bring insignificant gifts and offer
them to God, and those common,
mundane offerings are transformed
into Christ’s Body and Blood. Nothing
is held back! Not concerned about
the value of our gift, God lavishes
boundless generosity upon us. With
the prodigious gifts our Lord pours
out upon his bride, we are more than
prepared to go and invite others into
this unmatched relationship.
The Church has known since
the very start that the sick, broken,
wounded, tired, and sinful stumble
through the doors, needing a friend
who will stick with them in thick
and thin. The Church reaches out as
the Good Samaritan. Christ’s love is
always present, and always ready to
heal, correct, care for, offer rest and
forgiveness, because that kind of
love is the conduit for any authentic
relationship.
Sum mer/ver ano 2012
♦
The new translation
It is unlikely that what has kept
people away from Mass is that the
translation was less than ideal, but that
is a different topic for another time.
I simply want to look at some
basic things to describe how much
our Lord in his Body and Blood longs
to reach out to those in need. These
truths the Church understands and is
really part of why we should point
to those places of beauty and more
clarity in the translation of the liturgy.
Questions
Questions: We all have deep questions.
What is life all about? Why am I here?
These are very basic questions that
every person is going to have. In order
for us to grow in a relationship with
someone we are interested in, we ask
about their life journey, their likes and
dislikes. We wonder how we might
please them. The deep and lasting
questions of humanity are answered
decisively by the Word-made-flesh.
Jesus is the answer to our longings,
and his continued gift in Eucharist is
what gives us the strength to finally
be effective. He alone satisfies our
needs.
Call
Throughout all time God has
been calling to creation, with signs,
wonders, words, and deeds. The Lord
has unfolded his interest in creation
through the covenants, patriarchs,
judges, and prophets. This economy
of salvation is a constant witness
that God is interested in the intimate
relationship established with creation.
Confrontation
At some point we need to actually
choose Christ. Who do we say he is?
If we acknowledge Jesus as the Christ,
then our lives will be different. We
either believe he has—and continues—
to give himself to us in the Eucharist
or we don’t. We must choose to believe
in him, and that he has chosen to be a
complete gift for us.
Sum
mer/ver ano 2012
When we partake
in the Body
and Blood of Christ,
we are laying the
groundwork
for a holy, loving
relationship.
Celebration
We are meant to receive Jesus
so intimately that St. Paul likens this
unity to that of the complete self-gift
found in marriage. It is a place of
total gift, and as such it is also lifegiving. The place for us to encourage
and foster this deep and abiding
relationship is in the Mass. When
we partake in the Body and Blood of
Christ, we are laying the groundwork
for a holy, loving relationship.
to receive Christ’s grace. There are
wonderful seasons within the liturgy
that we all fall in step with, as well as
holy days of obligation that remind us
of our need for Christ. A relationship
fails when we stop communicating,
stop receiving, and stop giving. The
Church will always do whatever it
takes to remind people that they are
welcome to enter into a relationship
with Christ.
So, will you hear your kids say,
“Let’s go to Mass!” any time soon?
Probably not. But I do believe that
our continued attempts at introducing
young people to the relationship
found in Christ, both as parents,
as fellow disciples—as Church—can
and will change the heart of a new
generation.

in theology from Franciscan University, and
has begun doctoral work at the International
Marian Research Institute in Dayton, Ohio.

concerts. You can find out more about his
ministry and family at www.chrispadgett.com.
Conclusion
The new translation of the Mass is
all about helping young people know
their Savior better—the one who wants
to be in a life-giving relationship with
them. Jesus truly does long to give his
complete being, his whole self, to any
who come. This complete gift of self is
why we take Mass so seriously. There
isn’t anything superficial about this
relationship. Christ is also so entirely
given to us that he waits in the
tabernacles around the world so that
we can at any time come kneel before
him in a moment of need or of joy.
But even more than being just one
we can look upon and talk to, Jesus
allows us to take him into our very
bodies. We can be filled and satisfied
because his love is what we need.
The Church constantly provides
opportunities for all—young and old—

FATHER JAMES WALLACE, cssr
AIM: When did you first experience your vocational calling?
JW: It was when I was a little boy. I was taught by the School Sisters of Notre
Dame, and the parish was staffed by Redemptorist priests. We were always
invited to consider pursuing a vocation to the priesthood or to the religious life.
And so the seed was planted.
AIM: And off to seminary you went.
JW: Yes. At first I was very homesick—I was only 13—and wasn’t sure about the
whole thing. But my mom encouraged me to stay with it.
AIM: What was the turning point?
JW: There were several of them. It’s not like my future was completely clear to me at that age, but eventually it did become
clear. And though my family was supportive, there wasn’t pressure from them to keep going just for their sake.
AIM: Were you ordained for the Redemptorist order?
JW: I went through Redemptorist training from high school on. I was 25 when I was ordained; that was in 1970.
AIM: Did your founder, St. Alphonsus, have an influence on you?
JW: Definitely, in many ways. One way was his description of Redemptorist preachers as 1. men of study and learning
2. leading lives of good example, 3. practiced in prayer and meditation, 4. able to speak to the heart, 5. having the right
intention—always God’s glory, 6. understood by all present, and 7. effective communicators.
AIM: Quite a list!
JW: He was very emphatic that they be understood by average people. He’d call
guys out of the pulpit if they weren’t being understood, if their language was
too hifalutin.
AIM: How did you come to specialize in homiletics?
JW: After ordination I went to study for a graduate degree in communications.
I also had some private study with a veteran acting teacher skilled in voice
training.
We were
always invited
to consider pursuing
a vocation to the
priesthood or
to the religious life.

AIM: Would you share with us your “call story” to religious life?
DB: When I trace it back, it really revolves around one experience when I was in kindergarten. I’m putting adult words on it,
but I recall being at Mass, a very high liturgical experience, and thinking, “I like this; I want more of this. I want to be a part
of this.” This occurred at a neighboring parish, where I attended school; my home parish didn’t have a school attached to it.
AIM: Were you taught by the Sisters of St. Agnes?
DB: Yes; for people who grew up in my era, it was quite common to join the religious order that taught you.
AIM: How were called to the area of scripture study?
DB: It was, literally, a call. Again, for people of my era who entered religious life, you were directed by your superior. My
superior called, and told me that I was going to study scripture. My interest was more general theology, but they needed
a scripture person. After my studies, I was supposed to go back and teach scripture at Marian College in Fond du Lac,
Wisconsin.
AIM: Where did you study scripture?
DB: St. Louis University Divinity School. At the time, the school had cross-registration with Eden Theological Seminary
(for the United Church of Christ) and Concordia Seminary (of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod). So I was taught by
professors of other denominations. That ecumenical dimension was quite novel at that time.
AIM: When was that?
DB: In the early 1970s, so it was not all that long after the close of the Council.
AIM: After teaching at Marian College, what was next?
DB: I was hired to teach at Catholic Theological Union in Chicago. I’ve been at
CTU for thirty-four years.
AIM: That soon after the Council, were your scripture studies greatly influenced
by the Lectionary?
DB: It wasn’t until I came to CTU. There I taught with Richard Fragomeni in the
area of Hermeneutics for Bible and Preaching.

to 1985. I asked for a sabbatical in
1982—and was sent to do doctoral
studies! Not sure if that’s a sabbatical,
but that’s what happened.
AIM: Where did you go for your
doctorate?
JW: Northwestern University had
an
excellent
interdepartmental
program in the School of Speech,
allowing me to combine rhetoric, oral
interpretation, and further integrate
my other interests in preaching.
AIM: When did you start
Washington Theological Union?
at
JW: In 1986. So I’ve been teaching
here more than twenty-five years.
AIM: How did you come to homiletics
from the communications, not the
scriptural, side?
JW: When it came time to do my
doctorate, I called Fr. William
Skudlarek, osb, the final author of
the bishops' document on preaching,
Fulfilled in Your Hearing. He advised
me to go for a communications degree.
AIM: How else was the work of
homiletics changing?
JW: Vatican II brought the term
“homily” back into our vocabulary.
Up until then it was the sermon.
AIM: What’s the difference?
JW: Preaching at Mass would cover
the catechism, or catechetical topics
over the course of Sundays. It
wasn’t necessarily connected to the
scriptures. The Council emphasized
that all preaching should be nourished
by sacred scripture, that the homily
18 AIM
♦
should be based on biblical and
liturgical texts. There is room for
catechetical instruction on occasion,
but the main purpose is to lead people
into the mystery being celebrated, and
to meet the needs of the listeners in
living out the gospel.
JW: To open up for God’s people—and
beyond our Church—the riches of our
tradition. The power of God’s word
for bringing people into a deeper
relationship with the mystery of the
Trinity and with others. There’s such
potential there for life.
AIM: So what do you see as the
function of the preacher?
AIM: What do preachers need to take
into account when preaching today?
JW: The preacher is called to interpret
human existence through those
scriptural and liturgical texts, helping
the congregation to recognize God’s
active presence in their lives and the
world; then to encourage a response to
God’s presence at the liturgy itself, by
living a life in witness to the gospel.
JW: Some of the effects of postmodernity and technology. The
post-modern world rejects absolutes,
encourages relativity and a fluid
sense of self. This has an impact on
relationships and social structures.
AIM: How do you switch from your
role as classroom teacher to homilist
at liturgy?
JW: Incredible amounts of information
are within our reach, but we can’t
process it all. How does the homily’s
transformative message get in there?
Some say we are losing the ability to
focus for any length of time, and it
costs us even in the world of business;
people take longer to complete tasks
because of the constant interruptions
of all the gadgets.
JW: They’re mutually informative.
It all ends up being a big circle . . .
what I do in the classroom informs my
preaching, but then in the classroom
I find myself speaking about my
experience in the liturgical homily
from the preceding Sunday.
AIM: If I gave a homily in your class,
how would I be evaluated?
JW: A group of six to eight people
would give you feedback. What
was the message? What effect did
the message have? If you get eight
different answers, then there might
be a problem with coherence or
focus. When you finished, where did
the hearer want to go—to Eucharist?
To confession? Running out the
door? What image of God, of Christ
was presented? What image of the
community was presented?
AIM: What about technology?
AIM: What keeps you going, then?
JW: I continue to love teaching,
preaching, and writing, especially
for publications like Living the
Word, which helps people enter more
deeply into the gospel. This in turn
facilitates a better understanding of
God’s word, as well as an encounter
with it—perhaps even helping them
to believe, hope, and love more fully,
more humanly.
AIM: What hope or dream you might
have for Catholic preaching?

continued from page 17
DB: Liturgical Press had asked me
to re-do Reginald Fuller’s Preaching
the Lectionary. Richard Fragomeni
had taught me a literary-liturgical
approach to the Lectionary. That’s
what I used for those books.
AIM: How is that approach different?
DB: Biblical interpretation interprets a
particular passage within its biblical
context, but the other approach
looks at it in the context of the other
Lectionary passages, and the larger
liturgical context.
AIM: Could you give an example?
DB: The one that comes to mind is for
the first Sunday of Advent in Year B,
the parable of the man who goes away
and leaves his household in the care
of his servants. It’s an eschatological
story, but in the reading itself, there’s
nothing apocalyptic.
AIM: Could you clarify eschatological
and apocalyptic?
DB: Something that is eschatological
pertains to the future, which could be
the end-time. Apocalyptic is a specific
literary category, which includes
signs and cataclysmic world-ending
events. So the parable from Mark 13
in Advent has a future-looking, but
not cataclysmic aspect when placed
with the other readings and psalm of
that day and the tone of the Advent
season. But in the whole chapter of
the Gospel, it has that cataclysmic
aspect, since that is the character of
that chapter.
AIM: Do you prefer the literaryliturgical approach?
DB: It’s just a different approach, and
not all Bible people agree with it. Even
when the Lectionary omits verses,
some scripture people will interpret
Sum
mer/ver ano 2012
the whole passage. But then it’s not a
lection, a liturgical reading. You only
interpret the reading, and you also
have to place it in the context of the
liturgical season.
AIM: Having been through the
Lectionary cycles a number of times,
how do the scriptures stay alive and
active for you?
DB: Three things: There are always
changes in the current situation, in
the world around us; a little more
personal insight into life; and through
my own ongoing study, perhaps I will
have a bit more knowledge into the
meaning of the text.
AIM: When or if the Lectionary were
to be revised—content, not only
translation—what recommendations
would you make?
DB: I would recommend that the
Old Testament selections illustrate
Israel’s diversity a bit more, things
like their openness to women in
leadership roles, and openness to
God’s revelation to other nations
and religions as well. Something
like Isaiah 19:18–24, which shows a
cooperation among Egypt, Israel, and
Assyria. The New Testament has an
openness to the Gentiles, but it’s there
in the Old Testament, too.
AIM: How do you approach scriptures
as scholar/professor and as someone
who celebrates the liturgy?
DB: As a scholar, from a critical point of
view. The point isn’t merely to discover
the history, it also has to inform my
own faith and my own spirituality.
Once the analysis is done, you sit back
and reflect on the message.
AIM: Which is more difficult?
To sit back and reflect is to sit back
and search one’s own insights. So
the second one is much more selfrevelatory.
AIM: Do you find lectio divina or
other practices useful?
DB: I find that for me, my study of the
scripture achieves the same goals as a
practice like lectio divina.
AIM: You’ve taught now for a whole
generation. What do you see for the
future of the Church?
DB: At CTU we prepare the future
ministers, or people already in ministry
who will return there. I never cease to
be amazed at the commitment of the
women and men who are willing to
give themselves to this ministry. So
often people are concerned about the
future of the Church and I want to say
that these people who come through
our doors give me great hope. They
stay committed to a church suffering
disgrace and prejudice; they are
willing to minister at times when
their ministry is not valued by many
members within the Church. And they
do it without a lot of compensation;
it’s commitment and unselfishness
that give me great hope.
I never cease
to be amazed at the
commitment of the
women and men
who are willing
to give themselves to
this ministry.
DB: The analysis demands research.

Psalms and Songs for the Journey
Psalms from the Heart:
Prayers for the Times and
Seasons of Faith
by
Alan J. Hommerding
Lord, you said you came to bring us joy,.
and then you.
wept and shouted,.
groaned and died.
Your dance in the morning.
became a dirge at day’s end.
What song can I sing to celebrate?
You created the music of the spheres—.
teach me a song!
I will sing a song of hope—.
your fear for my assurance.
I will sing a song of banquet—.
your body for my soul.
I will sing a song of resurrection—.
your death for my life.
With the steady cadence of your sacrifice,.
you turn my mourning into melody,
You, who are the music.
“A Psalm For Holy Week”
T
hese psalms, which began
as spiritual journal entries
and occasional Christmas
letter enclosures, cover the
same range of human emotion and
experience—fear, joy, grief, awe,
anger, trust—as the biblical psalter.
Marion van der Loo, whose vocation
for forty-plus years has been that of
musician, takes these experiences and
expresses them in language that is
at once human, poetic, and musical.
Coming from a faith-filled heart, they
speak in a manner familiar yet new.
The first two sections of the
book cover the main seasons of the
Church’s year of grace, from Advent
through Pentecost. The remaining
20 AIM
sections—“The Glory of God,” “Times
and Seasons,” “A Heart Overflowing”—
include other parts of life that need to
be voiced in prayer.
Pray these psalms aloud, savor
them, and you will discover what
the author writes in her introduction:
“God is good, life is good, and the
music, in whatever way it manifests
itself, never stops, no matter what’s
happening in a given moment.”
An Introduction to the
Organ for Pianists:
Feet, Don’t Fail Me Now!
by
Keith s. kalemba
A
lan Hommerding has taken
his tried-and-true workshop
for beginning organists,
“Feet, Don’t Fail Me Now,”
and given us this introductory booklet
for pianists called to play the organ
at liturgy. An Introduction to the
Organ for Pianists: Feet, Don’t Fail Me
Now! is the first book in the series.
Alan gives a practical overview
of the organ console and organ
terminology, including suggestions
on how to select registration for
various times in the liturgy. For many
pianists, approaching the pedals can
be a frightening task. This booklet
provides practical musical examples
for incorporating pedal and manual
keyboard technique.
In addition to this new method
booklet, Alan has also edited two
new volumes of organ music for
manuals only or manuals with easy
pedal. Feet, Don’t Fail Me Now!
Volume One: Advent and Christmas
and Volume Two: Lent and Easter
are wonderful preludes/postludes
by such composers as Cesar Franck,
Richard Proulx, and Eugene Englert.
Speaking from personal experience
as a pianist who is a beginning
organist, these pieces are gems. Each
composition includes registration
and optional pedal suggestions.

W
orld Library Publications
is proud to welcome
Chris Padgett to the
WLP family with
the release of his new EP, Falling
Forward (wlp 008470). Chris is known
throughout the United States and
abroad as an author, speaker, mission
and worship leader, songwriter, and
performer. He uses music to convey
his message of God’s endless love and
mercy. His boundless energy seems
unstoppable; his passion and devotion
are inspiring to all who share and
witness his ministry.
Chris was the lead singer of the
popular Christian band Scarecrow
and Tinmen. He wrote, recorded, and
toured with this four-man group for
seven productive years and four stellar
albums before embarking on his own
solo career. As such, he has been the
recipient of several Unity Awards in
categories of Best Catholic Rock Song
and Album of the Year.
Chris is married to his high
school sweetheart, Linda, and they
have eight (or is it nine by now?)
children. Together they published a
book about courtship and marriage,
Not Ready for Marriage, Not Ready for
Sex: One Couple’s Return to Chastity,
that focuses on the cultural and social
pressures we face in daily life. Chris
has also published several other books,
including Spirituality You Can Live
With and Wholly Mary: Mother of God
(Servant Books). He holds a master’s
degree in theology from Franciscan
University of Steubenville, Ohio, and is
pursuing a doctorate in Marian studies
at the International Marian Research
Institute in Dayton, Ohio.
Falling Forward features the
engineering,
mixing,
and
coproducing skills of Mike Ofca at
picturesque Innovation Studios in
downtown Steubenville. Check out

The first track, “Beautiful Savior,”
is high energy complete with driving
guitars and riffs. The pre-chorus leads
to the refrain that instantly grabs you
and has you singing along the first
time.
“You Can Hold My Hand,” a popstyle song, is just pure fun! Chris’s
vocals implore Jesus to hold our hand
as we pursue his teachings.
The ballad-like title track, “Falling
Forward,” speaks of the change Christ
can make in us now, regardless of our
mistakes or sins: “I’m falling forward;
just take me as I am.” The pulsating
verses give way to the lyrical refrain
with a clever descending melody.
In “Once in a While” Chris sings
of the airs we often put on to get what
we desire, which is not always what
we need: God’s truth and love—an
impressive marriage of message and
music.
“The Eighth Day” is an interesting
mix of pop and bluegrass. The words
reflect on the thanks and praise given
after the seventh day of Creation:
“Creation’s done and rest is gained,
the seventh day renews; the eighth
day’s here to love and cheer. What
will you do on this eighth day?”
The other songs, “Are You
Ready?” and “I See You Breathe,”
offer the same variety of sound and
words. You won’t be disappointed
with Chris’s musical messages and the
edgy production found throughout
this EP.
Thanks to Chris and his family
for their ministry and the influence
they have on many throughout the
world. Visit their web site at www.

Inspired by Psalm 104,
“Holy Spirit, Come”
is a simple but lively
piece with solid lyrics, a
prayer for renewal. This
arrangement by Paul Tate
is flexible enough to be
sung by children’s choir
(using the top two parts)
or adult choir, adding
the third part written for

(005723, e05723)
Many of you already
know and love J. Michael
Thompson’s innovative
setting of the Exsultet;
now you can rejoice that
the composer has revised
his work to incorporate
the new English
translation of The Roman
Missal.
If you don’t know this
setting, here is the
opportunity to explore it
and discover the arranger’s
care for the traditional
chant and the form of
this proclamation. One or
two voices proclaim the
text while the choir often
underscores and extends
the chant. Worthy of the
Easter Vigil, this is an
effective and prayerful
setting that is not difficult
to learn.

P
salm 121 tells us that God
is our guardian and will
take care of us. The psalm is
actually a sort of dialogue; the
first part uses “I” and the remaining
verses use “you.” Called “a song of
ascents,” these words were used by
pilgrims on the way to Jerusalem. If
you are familiar with the geography
of the region, you can well understand
why travelers would be concerned
about mountains, secure footing
while ascending, shade from desert
heat, and protection throughout a
journey. In conclusion, we are assured
that God will watch over us forever.
This message has been spun into
a song by Fr. James Marchionda titled
“I Lift Up My Eyes.” The melody seems
almost spontaneous, but is actually
carefully crafted with interesting
rise and fall, with a natural peak at
the third phrase. Yet it is very easy
to sing; except for two leaps in the
second phrase, the motion is entirely
step-wise. For many years, through
the ministry of parish mission
preaching, the composer has observed,
learned, preached, and practiced that
sacred music can bridge generation
gaps between children and adults at
worship. The simplicity of the melody
would allow the assembly to join after
hearing it once.
“I Lift Up My Eyes” is in the
new We Celebrate Hymnal at #839.
Paul Tate has created a keyboard
accompaniment for the verses that
gently leads and provides harmonic
support with an eighth-note motion.
This texture resembles the style brisé,
familiar to baroque keyboardists; the
notes that double the melody should
be played slightly louder or held
slightly longer than the other eighth
notes. This technique serves especially
well if accompanying this song on
the organ (or harpsichord!). Four-part

if you wish to use it as a choir anthem
since it has more varied choral parts.
This song of pilgrimage may be
used with themes of trust, consolation,
faith, and comfort; the gentle and
confident mood of the song makes it
welcome for Evening or Night Prayer.
When remembering the journey of
those early pilgrims, consider what
“Jerusalems” may be calling us in
our time. The assurances of Psalm
121 found in “I Lift Up My Eyes” can
comfort us today.

COMMENTARY
E
aster Sunday is behind us, but celebrating the fifty days of the Easter season is just beginning.
Pace yourself as you get ready for all the baptisms, First Communions, teen confirmations, liturgical
additions (prayers for mothers, graduates, et al), and the mystagogical reflection of the neophytes that
will take place these next weeks. It may be difficult to sustain the festivities unless you have a comprehensive
plan that takes you all the way to Pentecost.
Today, the resurrected Christ offers peace to his disciples. The first reading tells us that the whole
community of believers was characterized by being one in heart and mind, which implies a peace-filled
body of people. Are our communities one in heart and mind? Are our communities filled with the peace of
Christ?
Our pluralistic society runs counter to the idea that we could be united in heart and mind even in a
church setting. Can we even assume that all parishioners share the same vision of what it means to follow
Christ? If we could so assume, then there wouldn’t be so many separate denominations of Christians in the
world, and we wouldn’t have controversy in our denomination about where the tabernacle should be placed,
what candidates/issues to vote for, and so many other debatable points.
We’re never going to agree on everything. How do we help people experience the peace of Christ within
a community that can’t find consensus? Can we at least worship together and not allow the liturgy to
become a battlefield? What part do I play in peace-making or in fostering dissent? What ideas do I have to
surrender instead of holding on tightly because I’m right and “they’re” wrong? How do I receive the peace
of Christ, and how do I pass it on to others?

Third Sunday of Easter
Lectionary 47

COMMENTARY
T
oday we hear of Jesus opening minds to understand the scriptures.
I have a dream—that one day all Catholics will have read and studied the Sunday readings before
coming to Mass. I’m hoping it’s a dream and not a fantasy that at least some Catholics might do so, but
they won’t get this idea on their own. We need to present it as an expectation and make it easy by providing
books with the readings in them, or at the very least, putting the citations in the bulletin.
The Liturgy of the Word includes hundreds of words every week. There are too many words to catch
them all, much less determine God’s word or words for me to take with me into my week. We can proclaim
the readings slowly, we can have well-appointed silence, and we can have an incisive homily, but nothing
beats taking the time to consider the word of God prayerfully outside of Mass time.
We also need to provide opportunities for scripture study in a number of formats in order to meet the
differing scheduling needs of the people. If they won’t come for two-hour sessions on ten Thursday nights,
could something be offered between Masses on Sunday for twenty minutes, or after daily Mass once a week?
What about an adult Bible study during children’s faith formation time? If a comprehensive catechetical
program doesn’t fly, think about situations that could accommodate small bites of scripture study.
Scripture is not optional in our ritual prayer or in our daily lives. The word of God still speaks to us
today. Jesus will open our minds to understand the scriptures. We only need to ask and to receive.

COMMENTARY
T
here are many titles for Jesus. Today we learn that he is the Good Shepherd. This image would have
been clear to the people at the time of Jesus, but it is not so clear today. I don’t know any shepherds.
I sometimes see sheep in fields while driving or when I go to the state fair, but that’s it. One thing for
certain: I can’t tell one sheep from another. The good shepherd can distinguish one sheep from another and
is willing to protect and defend each sheep. He is even willing to die to safeguard the sheep.
Looking at word origins, the word shepherd is related to the words pastor and pastoral. In this way, we
call leaders in the Church shepherds. We can also talk about being a “pastoral” liturgist. A pastoral liturgist
is one who acts out of concern for each member of the parish.
We talk about making a pastoral judgment when choosing music for worship. The pastoral judgment
takes into account the specific culture, background, mentality, and faith needs of the community. However,
we don’t make musical choices solely from a pastoral point of view. The pastoral determination has to work
together with judgments about the ritual appropriateness and the quality of the music. The same is true
about other liturgical decisions.
How do we apply a pastoral judgment to liturgical preparation and planning? When and how is it
permissible to apply a pastoral interpretation to a situation rather than a more rigid one? How do we
combine judgments about quality, liturgical appropriateness, and pastoral application as we go about our
decision-making?
How do we follow the example of the Good Shepherd? Are we willing to lay down our lives for one of
this flock?

COMMENTARY
T
he Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults introduced us to new vocabulary words, one of which is
“mystagogy.” The newly baptized enter a period of mystagogy during the Easter season in which they
explore more deeply the mysteries that have occurred at the Easter Vigil. The use of the word mystery
is not in the sense of a CSI “whodunit,” but to mean something not obvious, not seen on the surface, or not
readily understood. The idea is to plumb the depths of the experience and be able to articulate what it means
to the person and how it will influence future action or thought.
Our days are made up of raw experiences. Few people take the time to ponder the meaning of these
experiences unless forced by heightened emotions. Grief or loss on the one hand and joy or delight on the
other can cause us to pause and reflect on what is occurring. Current technology may have made it easier
to keep a journal, but how many people do so?
We teach the neophytes how to do this kind of reflection, but it is something that every person should
learn how to do. If we believe that ritual experience can change our hearts and teach us how to live as Christ
in the world, then we need to learn how to reflect on the ritual, uncover the truth that is there for us, and
consider how to apply it in our daily lives.
How can we help people be open to letting the liturgy speak to them? Can we go to Mass with a small
notebook and jot down any words, phrases, or images that strike us? And how do we get people to take the
time to think back on the liturgy they just celebrated?

COMMENTARY
T
o speak about the love of God is to bring up questions about how we perceive God acting in the world
today. If God loves us, how can there be suffering? Why does God permit diseases, natural disasters,
horrible accidents, or unmet basic needs? They aren’t all caused by free will. Does God love one person
more than another? Why are a few saved in the earthquake and thousands die? Why are some plucked from
poverty while most are never able to escape?
Have we asked Job lately why bad things happen to good people? Job blesses God and admits he cannot
fathom the mind of God. I think we have to do the same. Faith allows us to believe even when there is no
concrete evidence around us. I find it much easier to pray with confidence for someone else who is having
difficulties than to pray for myself. I have more hope than confidence when it comes to my own needs or
problems.
My times of doubt are what make writing general intercessions a challenge. The writer Annie Dillard
tells a story about attending a worship service in which the pastor stops himself during the prayers of
intercession and says, “We bring you these same prayers every week, Lord!” The implication is, “When are
you going to answer us?”
I try not to tell God what to do when I write intercessions for Mass. I prefer “For the brokenhearted”
or “For healing for the brokenhearted,” rather than “That God will heal the brokenhearted so that they may
have peace.” The difference may be subtle, and I do believe that God will heal those who are brokenhearted.
But, since I cannot fathom the mind of God, I need to trust the actions of our loving God.

Seventh Sunday of Easter
Lectionary 60

COMMENTARY
T
he Introit for the Holy Thursday Evening Mass of the Lord’s Supper expresses the crux of the Triduum
liturgies: “We should glory in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, for he is our salvation, our life and
resurrection; through him we are saved and made free” (Galatians 6:14). We are not doing little plays
from the scenes of Jesus’ life; there is always more going on. We cannot pretend we don’t know the “end
of the story.”
Tonight we remember the institution of the Eucharist, and we look forward to the heavenly banquet
foreshadowed in the Eucharist, all in the context of two stories, the Passover story in Exodus and the footwashing story from the Gospel of John.
The Passover story reminds us that an innocent lamb’s blood was shed in order to save the Israelites
from slavery. We believe that Jesus is the new innocent Lamb of God whose blood is shed to save us from
the slavery of sin and death. The lamb that was killed was also eaten by the Israelites to give them food for
the journey. We consume the Body and Blood of the Lamb of God to sustain us on our journey.
At the time of Jesus, providing materials to wash feet was an act of hospitality for guests in one’s home.
But the host did not wash the feet of the guests; foot-washing was done by the house slaves. Jesus told Peter,
“Unless I wash you, you will have no inheritance with me.” Jesus also said they should wash each other’s
feet as he had washed theirs.
It might be easier to serve one another than to be the one who is being served. Is it easier to wash
someone else’s feet or to be the one who gets his or her feet washed?

Pentecost Sunday
Lectionary 62, 63
27 m ay 2012
COMMENTARY
L
ook carefully at all the options in the Lectionary for this day. First, there is a set of readings for a
Saturday evening Vigil Mass (#62) to be celebrated before or after Evening Prayer I for Pentecost. One
set of readings is provided for any year in the three-year cycle, with four choices for the first reading.
Vigil Masses can be a challenge because many homilists do not want to prepare a Saturday homily and a
Sunday homily. Also, how many parishioners are likely to hear the readings both for a Saturday vigil and
the Sunday Mass?
Encouragement for a longer Pentecost Vigil Mass can be found in the Pastoral Notes of the Ordo.
The Liturgy of the Word is set up in a similar fashion as the Easter Vigil. There are four readings with
psalms followed by the Gloria, opening oration, Epistle, and Gospel. The purpose of the vigil is to pray for
the coming of the Holy Spirit. I wouldn’t choose to celebrate the vigil in this way without notifying and
catechizing parishioners about it ahead of time.
The readings for Pentecost day in Years B and C include the same first reading and psalm for all three
years, but offer choices for both the second reading and the Gospel. There is also a Pentecost sequence,
which is prayed—or better yet, sung—before the Gospel acclamation. A sequence is liturgical poetry that
adds to the meaning of the feast day. The Pentecost sequence in Latin includes a poetic use of meter and
rhyme.
There once were many sequences used throughout the liturgical year. Only two are now required, on
Easter and on Pentecost.

The Most Holy Trinity
Lectionary 165
3 june 2012
COMMENTARY
T
he Mass is filled from beginning to end with references to the three persons of the Trinity. The words
that accompany the sign of the cross say that we are praying in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit. We use the same formula at the end of Mass in the final blessing.
The Glory to God is addressed to Father and Son and mentions the Holy Spirit near the end. The Nicene
Creed names our most basic beliefs about the Three-in-one. The orations are prayed to God the Father
through Christ in union with the Spirit. Likewise, the Eucharistic Prayer is addressed to God the Father,
prayed through Christ, and in unity with the Spirit: We pray through Christ, and with him, and in him,
to God, our almighty Father, all in the unity of the Holy Spirit, giving the triune God all glory and honor
forever and ever. (We might ponder what it means to pray through Christ, with Christ, and in Christ—what
do these three prepositions mean?)
The Eucharistic Prayer gives praise and thanks to God the Father/Creator, naming the great works God
has done for us, especially in the actions of Jesus. The Holy Spirit is asked to come upon the gifts of bread
and wine and to unite into one body all who receive these gifts transformed into the Body and Blood of
Christ.
Is it important for people to understand references to each of the three persons of the Trinity and to
distinguish what role each plays in the Mass or in the world? There’s a reason that three-persons-in-oneGod is considered a mystery. We can’t go wrong if we remember that the one God of love has chosen us
and redeemed us.

The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ
Lectionary 168
10 june 2012
COMMENTARY
S
treet processions honoring Mary or a saint are common devotional practices in many cultures, though
not as prevalent in ethnically non-specific parts of the United States. The Corpus Christi procession may
have a broader appeal and has experienced a resurgence in some areas. It is an optional celebration.
The local bishop decides if it would be appropriate for the diocese.
In a Corpus Christi procession, the Eucharist is solemnly carried in a monstrance along a designated
route. People in the procession reverently sing and pray. They are expressing their eucharistic devotion to
the community at large. The procession honors the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist in a public way.
“Real presence” might seem like an odd term. Is there an “unreal” presence? The word “real” means that
Christ is fully present. In times past, Catholics have been ridiculed by people who thought we believe that we
are eating the physical flesh and blood of Christ. We do not comprehend the reality of the Body and Blood of
Christ through our senses; we believe by faith that Christ is truly present. We consume the Body and Blood
of Christ, and we receive Christ in our own bodies in order to be Christ-like in the world.
The Church offers a number of possible ways to express our love of the Eucharist, including devotional
practices such as processions, Eucharistic Adoration or Exposition, and Benediction. Whether we do or don’t
participate in these devotions, we need to make it clear that the reception of Communion (under both forms,
it is to be hoped) at Mass is the central activity in Catholic ritual.

Eleventh Sunday in Ordinary Time
Lectionary 92
17 JUNE 2012
COMMENTARY
O
ne of the more difficult things about ministry is that we often don’t know the results of our work.
Are we helping people pray and grow closer to God? We scatter seeds, but do they wither and die
or become great plants? A faith journey is complex, and we may never know the part we played in
another’s life.
I sometimes meet people who tell me about a liturgy or presentation that I was part of years ago that
deeply touched them in such a way that they can still remember the occasion. I may have felt good about the
experience at the time (it can be difficult to remember), but I couldn’t have predicted whether I was changing
lives for the better or even slightly influencing people.
If someone goes into the liturgical or sacred music world for accolades or rewards, that person should
be prepared to be disappointed. Liturgical choices never please all of the people all of the time. There will
always be critics. There will always be people who say, “That was nice, but . . .” It seems there will always
be controversies and people who liked the way we used to do it better and people who aren’t happy if they
can’t point out flaws.
Life-changing moments are few, really. We have to find our contentment in the plodding, day-by-day
instances of life when we hope we are adding to the positive fabric of others’ lives. We have to savor the
times we feel we may have stepped out of the way enough so that God could act through us.
Do your part. Plant lots of seeds. Do what you can to provide sun, water, and nourishment for growth.
But remember, God is in charge of the harvest.

Nativity of saint John the Baptist
Lectionary 586, 587
24 june 2012
COMMENTARY
S
undays in Ordinary Time are replaced when a special feast or solemnity occurs. There is no Twelfth
Sunday in Ordinary Time this year. Instead, we celebrate the birth of John the Baptist. Note that there
are Vigil readings that may be used before or after Evening Prayer I for the feast. I think that most
preachers will not want to prepare two homilies, however.
The Gospel tells us that when his parents choose the baby’s name, John, people are astonished because
the name is not one used in that family. What we don’t hear is in the Vigil Gospel. An angel has revealed
the name John to the parents, Elizabeth and Zechariah. The name John means “God is gracious.” Elizabeth
was too old to have a child, but God was gracious and she conceived anyway.
I am amazed at some of the names people choose for their children. Celebrities have given their
children names like Apple, River, Scout, Free, and Banjo. I don’t know if any of these children are baptized.
Conversely, I’ve heard horror stories of priests fifty years ago who didn’t like the name the parents had given
to their child, so they baptized the child with a different name that they chose on the spot, the name of a
canonized saint.
Have we grown out of the custom of naming our Catholic children after saints? Is the idea of a patron
saint old-fashioned? Do we need to help people learn more about the saints so that they might choose a
child’s name, or at least the middle name, for a saint? It is difficult to fight cultural trends, but let’s continue
to ask what place the saints should have in our lives.

Thirteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Lectionary 98
1 july 2012
COMMENTARY
N
ow might be the time to begin planning ongoing formation sessions for each of the liturgical
ministries in your parish. Most people see the start of the school year as more of a “new year” than
January 1. You will want to send out information about upcoming sessions in mid to late August.
It is good to offer at least yearly updates for each of the ministries. Even the person who says, “I’ve
been a reader for thirty years. Why do I need to come to a workshop?” should be persuaded that everyone
can grow and deepen his or her ministry. I think we are obligated to provide opportunities for enrichment
for our ministers.
For the sake of my schedule, I spread them out through the year so I attend about one a month (skipping
December and the time near Triduum). We have a simple meal together, prayer, a presentation that includes
conversation, and then a time to discuss any specific issues or concerns within the ministry. The meal may
add some logistical difficulties, but I have found that taking time to get to know one another through talking
and eating draws people together. It also allows us to begin evening sessions at 6:30 because people can
come from work. We also provide childcare.
The other schedule that works is to invite everyone on the same day. The group stays together for prayer,
refreshments, and a presentation on a general ministerial topic or catechesis about the Mass. Then the group
breaks into individual ministries either for further instruction or for time to talk about issues specific to that
ministry. People are needed to lead each of the breakout groups.
Ongoing formation and education are not luxuries; they are integral in helping our ministers grow.

COMMENTARY
I
don’t like to admit my weaknesses. I want to be thought of as an overachiever, as one who meets
deadlines, who can be relied on to follow through on a project. I want to get an “A” on my assignments,
a trait that continues even though I am no longer in school. I don’t like to admit that I need help, but I
am learning that getting help makes life so much easier.
I sometimes hear myself saying, “It takes too long to teach someone else how to do it. I can do it faster
if I just do it myself.” Do I think there is only one way to do something—my way? Am I really afraid that
someone else will do it differently than I would? Can I let go of my control issues and allow someone else
the satisfaction of a job well done?
Part of my ministry has to be teaching others how to prepare and plan all of the facets of liturgical
celebrations. Learning how to delegate has been a difficult lesson for me but a necessary one. If I share
responsibilities with a number of people, I relieve my own stress level, and I get more people taking ownership
of the project.
One area where I do admit weakness is planning liturgical environments. I know the principles, but I
am not a visual artist. I need people on my team who understand color, fabric, and design. I need a plant
person who knows how and when to repot things. I need a crew of people willing to haul and move and
hang and clean up.
When I’m able to admit my weakness, the community can step in to help. The end result is much
stronger than what I can do alone.

COMMENTARY
S
ome people really know how to make a guest feel welcome. The home is cozy and inviting, refreshments
are readily available, and there is a feeling of warmth and expectation. You know that they have put
some time into getting everything just so. They take pleasure in your company.
I don’t want to equate parishioners coming to the church to guests coming to your house. They are
members, not guests. But we do need to consider how to help people feel as if care has been taken to make
the space welcoming.
Walk around the church and pretend you are seeing it for the first time. Look at all the spaces with
a critical eye, especially entrances, and get rid of clutter and unused furnishings. Find a way to display
information, flyers, and pamphlets in an orderly manner. Make certain all areas are clean, including
washrooms. Ensure that washrooms are well stocked with supplies.
Consider what might be helpful to people with special needs. Do you have assisted listening devices and
large-print worship guides? Are ushers/greeters trained to welcome people, deal with emergency situations,
and assist people with disabilities? Are all the spaces accessible to those using wheelchairs or walkers?
Are areas well lit and not dreary-feeling? Are sight lines to the altar, ambo, chair, and font clear? Can
the sound system be counted on to work for both speaking and singing? Are liturgical ministers prepared
and do they convey an invitational spirit? Are refreshments offered after Mass on a regular basis?
The word welcome originally meant “one whose coming is in accord with another’s will.” Let us provide
a hospitable place where we can take pleasure in each other’s company.

COMMENTARY
H
ow often have I made a plan to get away and take care of my own needs and been interrupted by
the needs of others, as in today’s Gospel? Funerals are the best example. They can happen at the
busiest times, but all other plans go on the back burner in order to care for people in grief. My heart
is “moved with pity” when I spend time with these people, but sometimes I have had an internal struggle to
get there. I can grow resentful if I always squash my needs in favor of others’ needs.
How do we balance our own needs with meeting the needs of others? God doesn’t want us to cancel all
vacations and run ourselves ragged helping everyone else. Self-care is important, too. We need to put plans
into place so that we aren’t the only ones who can do funeral planning, or who can do any specific part of
our ministry. Everything shouldn’t fall apart if we take a day off or if we’re sick.
We might feel the temptation to try to be irreplaceable. We might even enjoy the sympathy when people
notice we are working long hours. We could be mistakenly thinking that our motivation is coming from
dedication to our ministry when it really comes from our ego.
When I look at today’s first reading, I love to apply it to leaders in the Church who may be misleading
the Lord’s flock. But I am also a leader. I have to examine my own motivations and actions. I have to
pray for a good shepherd’s heart and for the ability to be a wise leader. The first wisdom to pray for is the
knowledge of when to stay and serve others and when to go away and take care of myself.

COMMENTARY
T
oday and the next four Sundays we leave the Gospel of Mark and read John Chapter 6, the discourse
on Jesus as the Bread of Life. Many homilists find it demanding to speak on the same subject for five
weeks. That same challenge exists for liturgists and musicians, so it is a good idea to plan these weeks
as a whole.
While the music and prayers can reflect our best eucharistic theology, let us not neglect the fact that
Jesus actually fed hungry people on that mountain. “Bread of Life” is not just a spiritual concept. How does
Jesus meet the physical needs of starving people in our world today? He meets them through the work we
do as his hands and feet and voice.
Eucharist cannot only be about “me and Jesus.” It is difficult for people to care about their spiritual
needs if their physical needs are not being taken care of. Hunger and poverty are eucharistic issues. This
Bread of Life is also the Body of Christ, and we are members of that one Body. We are mutually dependent,
united to one another through Christ, and in solidarity with the poor. Each of us is not a lone soul attempting
to make the journey to heaven. We have each other, and we have a responsibility to help one another,
spiritually and physically.
The Mass does not exist as an hour of prayer time with God completely divorced from the mundane.
What we learn through the Mass, what we experience through the Mass, we take into the week. As Jesus
feeds us, so must we feed one another. One of the fruits of Holy Communion is our commitment to the poor.
