  • From the Liturgical Year, Week of Sexagesima by Dom Gueranger, O.S.B
    At Holy Family Catholic Church: 338 W. University Blvd., Tucson February 7, A.D. 2021 VERITATEM FACIENTES IN CARITATE - LIVING THE TRUTH IN CHARITY From The Liturgical Year, Week of Sexagesima by Dom Gueranger, O.S.B. Come, be converted unto Me, saith the Lord. Let us come weeping, and pour out our tears before God, for we have been negligent, and because of us is the earth suffering. We have committed iniquity, and because of us are the foundations of the world moved. Let us hasten to avert the wrath of God; let us weep, and say: O Thou, that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us! Behold, now are close at hand those days of salvation, which the cycle of the year brings round to us, and in which we desire, by the exercise of salutary abstinence, to apply a remedy to our evil doings. For, as the apostle says: This is the acceptable time, and, these are the days of salvation, wherein a spiritual cure is given to the soul that seeks it, and the evil delights of sin are rooted from the mind. Hereby, we, whose evil habits are ever forcing us to a downward tendency, are by the uplifting mercy of God, encouraged to rise above this earth; that thus, by the devout observance of what these days require, we may not only be delivered from the guilt of our sins, but may moreover deserve to be companions with the elect in eternal bliss. Amen. ASH WEDNESDAY, Feb 17th Bring out your Palms by Sun, Feb 14th! Masses with blessing & distribution of ashes: Please place your old blessed palms in the 8:00am Latin Low Mass* designated basket at the back of church.

  • 105 the Church Follows a Liturgical Calendar. the Calendar Details The
    chapter sIx: the church calendar HE church follows a liturgical calendar. The calendar details the various seasons, feasts, fasts, Tsaint’s days and celebrations of the church year. The church does not experience time merely in terms of the movement through winter, spring, summer and fall, with various “holidays” mixed in. The church experiences time in an annual cycle that moves through the major events in the life of Christ and the drama of our redemption. The use of a calendar is rooted in the creation narrative. In Genesis 1:14, “God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years.” God created the division of time for the observance of signifi- cant events pertaining to creation, redemption and judgement. These observances give meaning to time. God saves his people by acting in time. Then God establishes memorial days that look backward to his saving acts and forward to their future consummation. In Leviticus 23, God commanded Israel to mark the passage of time by the observance of specific days and feasts. The following is a summary of these days and feasts followed by a summary of their fulfillment in the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. Old Testament Days and Feasts 1. Sabbath. The Jews observed the seventh day (Saturday) as the Sabbath each week. God com- manded Israel to work six days and rest on Sabbath according to the pattern established by God at the creation (Genesis 2:2, Exodus 20:9-10).
