Episcopal, Lutheran \ bishops discuss Mary
By Marlin Moran “ Redemptoris Mater,” Pope John Paul IPs latest encyclical, on Mary, has drawn a positive response from Protestant leaders in the Denver community. w Episcopal Bishop William C. Frey termed it “ a valuable contribution to further ecumenical dialogue” and Lutheran Bishop Wayne Weissenbuehler said he is pleased with the extensive use of scripture and the strong emphasis on Mary’s faith. In the encyclical d^icated to the Blessed Virgin, Pope John Paul II described Mary’s life as an image of o b ^ ie n c e and freedom, a model of “ feminity with d ign ity” and an inspiration to Christian unity. The encyclical, the Pope’s sixth, was issued at the Vatican March 25, the Feast of the Annunciation. It was written in preparation for the special Marian year called by the Pope, to begin June 7, and emphasized Mary as the “ common mother” of Catholics and Or thodox Christians. , . . Much of the papal letter is an extended spiritual reflection on Mary’s “pilgrimage of faith,” from the Annunciation to the Crucifixion, to her Assumption into Michael O ’Meara/DCR Photo heaven.

Second Sunday of Easter ding Cath — John 20:19-31 tauri Anin The resurrection event is the dawn of a new age hez 1 of God’s definitive act of establishing His reign of pie 1 love. Fear and joy, the Gospel tells us, are the mixed r / / ' reactions of the disciples to the events that will take a r vr. long time to assimilate. The disciples fear that they r ' too may lose their lives — the fear is not unfounded. /' They are also filled with joy in seeing and hearing the /> Lord. Tiie disciples are quite ashamed of their betrayal of the Lord in running off under the cover of darkness in the Garden of Ge^semane. They have all sinned; Peter has sinned most grievously by denying his re lationship with Jesus and taking a false oath. Jesus wishes them peace. To wish someone peace was in fact to bring it about or make it present. They lacked peace, Jesus restores peace through the cross / « whose power the disciples have not fully compre hended. This is why Jesus repeats His greeting of i. peace — for the disciples it is too good to be true. To bring to the consciousness the meaning of His cross and resurrection, He gives them the gift of the y Spirit wherein that peace is anchored. To give them and us the power to forgive effectively is to endow us with the heart of divine power. We gaze with wonder at the magnificence of the divine power in the crea ‘Ri tion of the world but to forgive is to use a far deeper divine power than the power which brought the physi cal world into existence. God created the world; we disrupted it with sin and now in being given the gift of the Spirit we have the ability to renew and recreate this earth in God’s Si holiness. The purpose of the story in Genesis — man and woman created in (Jod’s image — is now seen and understood in its ultimate potential. God’s spirit in us and the ability to forgive and heal and grow once more allows humanity to realize its destiny. Thomas’ doubts are easily understandable. When Jesus is again present a week later He invites Thomas to touch Him or rather to “ put out your hand and Michael O’Meara/DCR Photo place it in My side.’’ Thomas is invited to experience a renewed fidelity to the person of Jesus. Jesus does not condemn Thomas’ doubt. Jesus invited Thomas to Mother Nature’s wiles believe again. It's not polite to fool Mother Nature, but like so many things in life, it’s all right if Mother Nature wants to puil The gospel does not tell us whether Thomas actu one of her little tricks. After flying several hundred miles from warmer climes to take up residence in Colorado ally did place his hands in the wounds. This omission for the spring, this little aviator is wondering if he misread the calendar and left too early. It's a terrible thing to seems to be deliberate because it invites us also to have happen when you haven’t had time to build your nest yet. believe and not rely on the evidence of our senses and feelings. Thomas responds to the invitation to believe by confessing “ My Lord and My God.” A blessing (spiritual prosperity) is pronounced on 5 at St. Mary’s get us who have not seen Jesus in the flesh but have acknowledged Him in the heart.
