BEN Holy Week: The Summit of the Church’s Liturgical Life 1. Embracing the Holy Week The Holy Week ceremonies which begins with the Palm Sunday celebration is not basically considered and treasured as the “Week of weeks” in the Church’s liturgical life but also has been presented from the time of the Fathers of the Church as the most distinctive and privilege time for re-living the fundamental mystery of our Christian life. In our reflection, we wish to establish that the Holy Week, its import, diversity and the different celebrations that unfolds its manifold significance constitutes and embodies an inexhaustible and holistic spiritual treasure of the very essence of our Christian life as seen in the life, suffering, and death of Jesus. In a single but unique week, the Church re-lives all the mysteries and actions that define and makes her relevant for all peoples of every age. These mysteries, which accompany the Church in her day to day to day to day life, constitute for us in this Holy Week a reservoir of the entire Church’s liturgical. As a Week that changed the world, the Church is offered an opportunity to celebrate with joy and sense of fulfilment, the institution of the Eucharist which is the source and summit of our Christian life and spirituality. 2. Holy Thursday On Holy Thursday, the Church celebrates the institution of the Eucharist and the Priesthood. The Eucharist contains the whole spiritual good of the Church namely Christ himself, our Pasch (Lumen Gentium 11). Since the Eucharist is ontologically and theologically connected with the priesthood, in the celebration of the Lord’s Supper, the institution of the priesthood is commemorated and the life of humility and holiness is emphasized for those who receive the sacrament of holy orders. The giving of himself which Jesus freely did on Holy Thursday is completed on Good Friday when he offered himself to the eternal Father via his death on the Cross. The relationship between the Holy Thursday celebration and the Liturgy of Good Friday goes a long way to show that each Eucharistic celebration is precisely a continuation of not only what happened on the Last Supper but also the re-enactment of the sacrifice of Jesus which took place on the mount of Calvary. 3. Good Friday The veneration of the Cross on Good Friday is one of the most important moments of the solemn liturgy of the passion and death of our Lord. In the veneration of the Cross, the Church does not simply revere an ordinary wood or do we merely venerate an instrument of death. For us, the Cross provides a context where we can unite ourselves with all the victims of the different unbearable situations that tend to redefine the lives of our many brothers and sisters. On the Cross, these brothers and sisters of Jesus (Mt. 25: 40) encounter the just One who delivers them from their many troubles (Ps. 32:10). We shall have an opportunity to celebrate the “life Station of the Cross” with our Teens at 3:00pm on Good Friday. Come and enter into the mystery of the Passion of Jesus. 4. Holy Saturday The Easter vigil, which in its essence commemorates the passage from death to life; from the old to the new recalls the invitation of the Church to all her children to live a life of conversion and newness in Christ. With the Easter vigil, new life is celebrated, hope is restored, and a new era of evangelization and witness is inaugurated. The readings during the Eastertide will mostly come from the Acts of the Apostles where the Spirit-filled activities of the Apostles and the first Christians are highlighted and celebrated not only from the perspective of their theological imports but in their capacity to change hearts and make present the salvific mission of Christ. The basic lessons that we could draw from the ceremonies of this all important week include: God is at work in our world, the Cross will continue to be a tree of life, the community in whose life we share is an important asset in our relationship with God, we are all called to be witnesses to this Great Event (Acts 1: 8). May this Holy Week be a Blessed Week for you and your families, Amen. Rev. Benedict Nwachukwu-Udaku March 29, 2015 NUESTRO ENFOQUE DE LA FE CON PADRE BEN Semana Santa: La Cumbre de la Vida Litúrgica de la Iglesia I. Acogiendo la Semana Santa Las ceremonias de la Semana Santa, que comienza con la celebración del Domingo de Ramos, no sólo se considera y atesora como la "Semana de las semanas" en la vida litúrgica de la Iglesia sino que también se ha considerado desde la época de los Padres de la Iglesia como el tiempo más distintivo y privilegiado para volver a vivir el misterio fundamental de nuestra vida cristiana. En nuestra reflexión, deseamos establecer que la Semana Santa, su significado, su diversidad y las diferentes celebraciones que despliegan su múltiple importancia constituye y personifica un inagotable y holístico tesoro espiritual de la mera esencia de nuestra vida cristiana como lo vemos en la vida, sufrimiento y muerte de Jesús. En una sola pero singular semana, la Iglesia vuelve a vivir todos los misterios y acciones que la definen y la hacen pertinente a todas las personas de todos los tiempos. Estos misterios, los cuales acompañan a la Iglesia en su vida cotidiana de día a día, constituyen para nosotros, en esta Semana Santa, un depósito de tesoros de toda la liturgia de la Iglesia. Como la Semana que cambió al mundo, la Iglesia tiene la oportunidad de celebrar con alegría y un sentido de realización, la institución de la Eucaristía, la cual es la fuente y la cumbre de nuestra vida y espiritualidad cristiana (Sacrosantum Concilium 47). 2. Jueves Santo El Jueves Santo la Iglesia celebra la institución de la Eucaristía y del Sacerdocio. La Eucaristía contiene el bien espiritual entero de la Iglesia, principalmente Cristo mismo, nuestra Pascua (Lumen Gentium 11). Debido a que la Eucaristía está ontológica y teológicamente conectada con el sacerdocio, en la celebración de la Cena del Señor, se conmemora la institución del sacerdocio y se enfatiza la vida de humildad y santidad para quienes reciben el sacramento de orden sacerdotal. El acto de Jesús de haberse dado a sí mismo libremente el Jueves Santo se completa el Viernes Santo cuando se ofrece él mismo al eterno Padre mediante su muerte en la Cruz. La relación entre la celebración del Jueves Santo y la Liturgia del Viernes Santo muestra que cada celebración Eucarística es precisamente una continuación de no sólo lo que sucedió en la Última Cena sino también una revalidación del sacrificio de Jesús el cual se llevó a cabo en el monte del Calvario. 3. Viernes Santo La veneración de la Cruz el Viernes Santo es uno de los momentos más importantes de la solemne liturgia de la pasión y muerte de Nuestro Señor. En la veneración de la Cruz, la Iglesia no sólo da reverencia a un madero común y corriente o venera un instrumento de muerte. Para nosotros, la Cruz nos proporciona un contexto en el cual nos podemos unir con todas las víctimas de diferentes situaciones insoportables que tienden a redefinir las vidas de nuestros muchos hermanos y hermanas. En la Cruz, estos hermanos y hermanas de Jesús (Mateo 25:40) encuentran al justo quien los libera de sus muchas tribulaciones (Salmos 32:10). El Viernes Santo a las 3:00 p.m. tendremos la oportunidad de celebrar el "Via Crucis en vivo" con el grupo de jóvenes. 4. Sábado Santo La vigilia de Pascua, que en esencia conmemora el paso de la muerte a la vida; de lo antiguo a lo nuevo, recuerda la invitación de la Iglesia a todos sus hijos a vivir una vida de conversión y renovación en Cristo. La vigilia de Pascua celebra una nueva vida, restaura la esperanza e inaugura una nueva era de evangelización y testimonio. Las lecturas durante el tiempo pascual principalmente provendrán de los Hechos de los Apóstoles donde se realzan y celebran las actividades de los Apóstoles y de los primeros cristianos llenos del Espíritu; no sólo desde la perspectiva de su aportación teológica, sino de su capacidad de cambiar corazones y hacer presente la misión salvífica de Cristo. Las lecciones básicas que podríamos extraer de las ceremonias de esta importantísima semana incluyen: Dios está obrando en nuestro mundo, la Cruz seguirá siendo un árbol de vida, la comunidad en cuya vida compartimos es sumamente importante en nuestra relación con Dios, hemos sido llamados a ser testigos de este Gran Evento (Hechos 1:8). Que esta Semana Santa sea una Semana de Bendiciones para ustedes y sus familias, Amén. Rev. Benedict Nwachukwu-Udaku Page 4 Teachings of faith and Catholic Culture A TEACHING MOMENT Lenten Traditions March 29, 2015 UN MOMENTO DE ENSEÑANZA Tradiciones de Cuaresma WHAT IS LENT by Peddy Ascio Fasting has always been associated with Lent but quite a common practice in the Old Testament, when they needed something from the Lord. It is a form of sacrifice! Voluntary, willingly doing it. On the other hand, hunger is a reaction. Our body knows when we have to eat. Like the Israelites who became enraged, when brought out of Egypt by Moses and had no provisions. But, what do we do when our heart, mind and spirit hunger? We fast! A contradiction indeed. In our 40 days journey, not attending to what we truly hunger for, can lead us down the wrong path where we feed the wrong part of ourselves - - - like overeating when our heart hungers for true love, or over-buying when our spirit longs for true meaning. This can also happen when we are not sure how to feed our hunger, or when we are afraid to feed what hungers. Our hungers continue. This lent, we, should take time to discover what part of us really longs to be fed. "Be not afraid", the scripture says, and allow Jesus' words to take us to a deeper awareness of what we hunger for. "The lamp of the body is your eye." lk.11:34 Last night (the last night of our Parish Mission), Fr. Michael Miller gave us examples of what we need versus what we want. There is only one nourishing guide and that is the Word. We should strive to name our hungers and feed them abundantly with the Word of the Lord. Bread fills our stomach. What fills our soul? QUE ES CURESMA por Peddy Acsio El ayuno siempre ha sido asociado con Cuaresma, pero es una práctica común en el Antiguo Testamento, cuando necesitaban algo de parte del Señor. ¡Es una forma de sacrificio! Se hace voluntariamente. Por otro lado, el hambre es una reacción. Nuestro cuerpo sabe cuando tenemos que comer. Como los Israelitas que se enfurecieron, cuando Moisés los sacó de Egipto sin provisiones. Pero, ¿qué hacemos cuando nuestro corazón, mente y espíritu tienen hambre? ¡Ayunamos! De hecho una contradicción. En nuestro viaje de 40 días, no atender ha nuestra hambre de verdadera , puede conducirnos por el camino equivocado donde alimentamos la parte equivocada --- como comer en exceso cuando nuestro corazón tiene hambre de amor verdadero, o comprando demasiado cuando nuestro espíritu anhela verdadero significado. Esto también puede ocurrir cuando no estamos seguros cómo alimentar nuestra hambre, o cuando estamos asustados de alimentar los que tienen hambre. Nuestra hambre continua. Esta Cuaresma, nosotros, debemos tomar tiempo para descubrir qué parte de nosotros realmente desea ser alimentado. "No temes", la escritura dice y permite que las palabras de Jesús nos lleve a una conciencia más profunda. "La lámpara del cuerpo es tu ojo."Lk.11:34 Anoche (la última noche de nuestra misión parroquial), el Padre Michael Miller nos dio ejemplos de lo que tenemos y lo que queremos. Hay solamente una guía nutritiva y esa es la Palabra. Deberíamos esforzarnos para nombrar nuestras hambres y alimentar abundantemente con la palabra del Señor. El pan llena nuestro estómago. ¿Que llena nuestra alma? WHAT IS LENT by Philomina Nwarueze, ADM Lent is a period of 40 weekdays from Ash Wednesday to Easter. As a Catholic family, it is a period of penitence for us as we journey with Christ to Calvary where he was crucified and hung on the cross by observing the “Stations of the Cross” praying along the way, and making sacrifices in observance and recognition of God’s presence in our lives. It is a period in which we reflect on our sins and ask for forgiveness and also seek to forgive others who have wronged us as Christ forgave our sins. It is also a period of self sacrifice or self denial so that our old self may die with Christ and experience a re-birth at his resurrection. For my family, we show appreciation by abstaining from meat on Fridays and especially Good Fridays in reverence and remembrance of the blood He shed on the Cross so that we may have life and have it abundantly. Some members of my family choose to abstain from food, some from meats, and others from activities or pleasure but overall, we attempt and make efforts to sacrifice something in honor of the life that Jesus Christ gave up for us and as a sign of remorse for our sins of omission and commission. Lent is a holy period when we make a conscious effort to let go of worldly possessions, lusts, sins, pleasures, and bad habits loved by our old selves so that we can live again in purity and holiness as followers of Christ. WHAT IS LENT by Philomina Nwarueze, ADM La Cuaresma es un período de 40 días desde el Miércoles de Ceniza hasta Pascua. Como una familia Católica, este es un período de penitencia para nosotros que viajamos con Cristo hacia el Calvario donde fue crucificado y colgado en la Cruz por observar la "vía crucis" orar en el camino y haciendo sacrificios en respeto y reconocimiento de la presencia de Dios en nuestras vidas. Es un período en el cual reflexionar sobre nuestros pecados y pedir perdón y también tratar de perdonar a los demás que nos han agraviado como Cristo perdona nuestros pecados. Es también un periodo de sacrificio o la negación de uno mismo para que nuestra vieja vida pueda morir con Cristo y experimentar un renacimiento en su resurrección. Para mi familia, nosotros apreciamos la abstinencia de carne los Viernes y especialmente el Viernes Santo en memoria de la sangre que derramó en la Cruz para que podamos tener vida y tenerlo abundantemente. Algunos miembros de mi familia deciden abstenerse de alimentos, algunas de las carnes y otros de las actividades de placer pero en general, intentar y hacer esfuerzos para sacrificar algo en honor de la vida que Jesús Cristo se entregó por nosotros y como un signo de arrepentimiento por nuestros pecados de omisión y comisión. La Cuaresma es un período sagrado cuando hacemos un esfuerzo consciente de olvidar posesiones, lujurias, pecados, placeres y malos hábitos amados por nosotros mismos en nuestro vida vieja para que podamos vivir nuevamente en pureza y santidad como seguidores de Cristo.
