When I finally met Sufjan, he LABEL: SOUNDS FAMILYRE seemed reserved and he didn’t really want to ***NOT EXPORTABLE TO EUROPE*** talk about his music. I don’t remember what happened after that, but now Sufjan is a very good friend to me and my family. For about a year my two- year old daughter wanted to marry “uncle Suf.” Some people leave New York City for the weekend and go to the Hamptons; Sufjan takes a bus down to Clarksboro, NJ and we love to have him every time. Sufjan and I have been playing shows together. I have asked him to dress up in silly outfits and fill various roles in Danielson Famile shows, and he has been so gracious and helpful. But even more importantly, many times Sufjan has opened up the evening sharing his own songs on borrowed banjos and guitars. I love to watch people hear and see Sufjan perform his songs. At times Sufjan stands alone on the stage singing and playing quietly with a banjo, and what you hear and see and feel is pure power.

  • Homily for the Solemnity of Mary (January 1, 2019)
    Homily Nm 6: 22-27 Ps 67: 2-3, 5, 6, 8 Solemnity of Mary – B Gal 4: 4-7 Rev. Peter G. Jankowski Lk 2: 16-21 January 01, 2019 Preached on the Holland America MS Veendam while on vacation in the Caribbean. On the 8th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me… Eight maids-a-milkin’, Seven swans-a-swimmin’, Six geese are layin’, Five golden rings, Four calling birds, Three French hens, Two turtle doves, And a partridge in a pear tree. My dear brothers and sisters, may I introduce you to the Christmas Carol that I enjoy the least… An old tradition, which is partly fact and partly fiction, tells us that the holiday tune entitled, “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” was written in England in 1780, around the time the Catholic faith was outlawed in Great Britain by the royalty of the time. As the story is told, between the years 1558 to 1829, the Catholic faithful were prohibited from any practice of their faith by law, whether it be publicly or privately. Catholic Englishmen were forced to teach their children about the ways of God somewhat covertly, in an attempt to skirt around the laws of the time. As a result, folklore tells us that “The Twelve Days of Christmas” was written as a type of code to instruct the children of the time concerning the ways of faith. The code works something like this… The True Love = God himself “Me” = Every baptized person Partridge in a Pear Tree = Jesus Christ, the Son of God.

  • A Biblical Treasure Hunt by David Pleacher
    A Biblical Treasure Hunt By David Pleacher The Bible verse from Matthew 6:19-21 states: "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal; but store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." And so I created this Biblical Treasure Hunt in which you must solve some puzzles to discover some of the treasures of Heaven. To "lay up treasures in Heaven" means people must prioritize the things they value here on earth. So these words of Jesus are about the priorities that we have in life – our attitudes, beliefs, codes, ethics, standards, ideals, principles, values, ideology, and morals. If you are not a Christian, you can still do this puzzle and just use these treasures as guidelines for a good life. There are several references to Bible passages and to a passage from the Quran. If you do not own those books, you can do a Google search on the internet for those passages. In the first eight puzzles, you will discover Treasures of Heaven. In the last puzzles, you will solve for twenty-six variables from A to Z. Then you will use the values of those variables to determine additional treasures in Heaven by replacing numbers with the corresponding letters. #4. _____________________ (one five-letter word) Determine this treasure of Heaven from the punches below: #5. _____________________________________ (four words) Hint: Look in Albrecht Dürer's Melencolia I (or see Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol) #6.

OBSCVLTA THE INTIMACY OF THE CROSS: KENOTIC LOVE IN HANS URS VON BALTHASAR AND SUFJAN STEVENS Kellen Troxell Abstract: This essay discusses how Balthasar describes the relationship between the Father and the Son and how this has implications for the relationship between Christ and the Church. In addition, I use “To Be Alone With You” by Sufjan Stevens in order to further examine the implications of this relationship. I’d swim across Lake Michigan, I’d sell my shoes I’d give my body to be back again In the rest of the room To be alone with you To be alone with you To be alone with you You gave your body to the lonely They took your clothes You gave up a wife and a family You gave your ghost To be alone with me To be alone with me To be alone with me You went up on a tree To be alone with me 39 The Intimacy of the Cross You went up on the tree I’ve never known the man who loved me1 Surrender is a tricky topic.
