EAT There is one such occurrence in our Gospel. John the Baptist says, “…He existed before me.” What is interest- BREAKFAST ing with this statement is that in truth John was born January 19th before Jesus and was older than the Lord in terms of earthly existence. So, when John the Baptist says “He 7:00am-Noon existed before me,” it becomes clear that he is testifying Parish Center to the pre-existence of Jesus as God. And, if Jesus is Eggs, Sausage, God, which he is, that has to change everything about how we live our lives. We must order everything to the Biscuits and Gravy, God who loves us.

  • Shroud Spectrum International No. 9 Part 6
    25 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Q. What is the relation of stigmatics to the Shroud? The Shroud shows the nail wound in the back of the wrist whilst all stigmatics have wounds in their palms. Carmel Camilleri, Malta Pollard Cross: The Coesfeld Crucifix A. One thing at least is certain: The stigmata are not reproductions of historical reality. The wide variety of manifestations is proof enough, one instance being that some stigmatics have the "lance wound" on the right, some on the left. It would seem that the location of the stigmata might be determined by two factors: 1), the personality and mental images of the mystic. One good example: Praying before a Pollard cross, common in Germanic countries from early medieval times, Catherine Emmerich (d. 1924), evidently "taking up her cross", was marked on the shoulder with a Y. And 2), the general conceptions about crucifixions in the minds of the mystics' contemporaries. These general conceptions were certainly formed in contemplation of crucifixes, which have consistently shown nails in the palms of the corpus, according to Jesus' words, "See my hands ... " in a post-resurrection appearance. (Lk 24:39, Jo 20:20,24-28) But crucifixes are made by artists, none of whom ever witnessed a crucifixion. The great artists of the Renaissance hung corpses for models and were dismayed when their macabre subjects fell because the nails ripped the palms right through. Yet, faithful to artistic tradition, they continued to place nails in the palms when representing Christ crucified. Rubens and Van Eyck departed from tradition, placing nails in the wrists; but their correction is not followed even today.

    SYMBOL OF CONQUEST, ALLIANCE, AND HEGEMONY: THE IMAGE OF THE CROSS IN COLONIAL MEXICO by ZACHARY WINGERD Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON August 2008 Copyright © by Zachary Wingerd 2008 All Rights Reserved ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I offer thanks to Dr. Dennis Reinhartz, Dr. Kenneth Philp, Dr. Richard Francaviglia, and Dr. Joseph Bastien who agreed to sit on my dissertation committee and guide my research and writing. Special thanks are given to Dr. Douglas Richmond who encouraged my topic from the very beginning and as the committee chair actively supported my endeavor. May 1, 2008 iii DEDICATED TO MY LOVING WIFE AND SONS Lindsey, Josh, and Jamie iv ABSTRACT SYMBOL OF CONQUEST, ALLIANCE, AND HEGEMONY: THE IMAGE OF THE CROSS IN COLONIAL MEXICO Zachary Wingerd, PhD. The University of Texas at Arlington, 2008 Supervising Professor: Douglas Richmond The universality of the cross image within the transatlantic confrontation meant not only a hegemony of culture, but of symbolism. The symbol of the cross existed in both European and American societies hundreds of years before Columbus. In both cultures, the cross was integral in religious ceremony, priestly decoration, and cosmic maps. As a symbol of life and death, of human and divine suffering, of religious and political acquiescence, no other image in transatlantic history has held such a perennial, powerful message as the cross. For colonial Mexico, which felt the brunt of Spanish initiative, the symbol of the cross penetrated the autochthonous culture out of which the independent nation and indigenous church were born.

    The Life of Saint Paul of the Cross Founder of the Congregation of the Cross and Passion 1694-1775 Volume 1 – 1694-1741 Father Louis Therese of Jesus Agonizing, C.P. 1873 Fr. Simon Woods, C.P. (Translated from the third French Edition) 1959 (INDEX TO VOLUME ONE ON FINAL PAGES) DEDICATION to HIS EMINENCE FERDINAND CARDINAL DONNET Archbishop of Bordeaux Your Eminence, The Life of Saint Paul of the Cross, which it is my privilege to dedicate to you, may rightfully be called your very own. Without your Eminence the work may not have been completed, and I may never have realized the idea that I had in mind for a very long time. It is then the humble fruit of a tree planted by your own hands in the vineyard confided to your care by the Heavenly Father. It was when your Eminence was in Rome for the Beatification of our holy Founder that you obtained from His Holiness Pope Pius IX the sons of Saint Paul of the Cross for your Archdiocese… And, if this little family was welcome and took its humble beginnings in the fruitful soil of France under your protection and guidance, is it not due to your paternal interest and initiative? Soon, it is true, a learned and zealous clergy imitated your zeal; but in those days of supreme struggle, of unceasing conflict against the rights of the Church, your Eminence realized that it is necessary that zeal be united with learning, especially when the war “against the Lord and his Christ” becomes so universal.

  • Jesus Christ in the Life of John Gabriel Perboyre1
    Jesus Christ in the Life of John Gabriel Perboyre1 by Álvaro Quevedo, C.M. Province of Colombia Introduction John Gabriel Perboyre “alter Christus,” was the image that was carved into my memory, from my years as a Vincentian seminarian. In the varied iconography of John Gabriel, there are two well-known images that relate him directly to Jesus Christ. The first is that of his death on the cross, which has a powerful impact on the persons who see it for the first time and ask why “that saint” is on the cross like Jesus Christ. The other image is that of the saint with traditional Chinese attire, holding a crucifix in his hands and gazing at it with devotion, as though rapt in profound meditation. 1. His love for Jesus Christ The biographers of John Gabriel recount that devotion to Jesus Christ was characteristic of him: his preferred readings were those that referred to Christ, and among the books of the New Testament, his favorites were the gospels and the letters of St. Paul. It was said that Our Lord was always on his lips and in his heart, and that he loved him more tenderly than a child loves his father. In all things he wished to please Jesus Christ, in his thoughts and actions, to such a degree that he became a living image of Jesus Christ. Speaking of Christ he would become enthusiastic and even eloquent. He used to say: Jesus Christ, is the great Teacher of knowledge; it is he alone who gives the true light.

Lynn Kircher, www.kirchersculpture.com, the artist who created our crucifix, accompanied it from his studio in Colorado to Oceanside, and oversaw, with the help of Brian Leahey, our Director of Construction, and a number of Parishioners, the attachment to the cross and then its erection in our present worship space on Saturday, June 22. Special thanks is given to our Parishioner, Martin Zschoche, who created the cross for the corpus! The crucifix will remain in our present worship space until the Church is ready to accept it. At that time, the corpus will be placed on its permanent cross which is being designed by our architect, Renzo Zecchetto, www.zechetto.com. The Interior Design Team (IDT) which has been meeting monthly for about nine years spent much time in determining the “moment” of Jesus’ time on the cross that we wanted to portray on our crucifix.
