History of St. Joseph Pilgrimage to Holiness In 1915, twenty-three years after the Church was dedicated, the main Italian marble altar was designed by Augustine O’Callaghan of Chicago and erected by Shrader and Sons. It was designed with the Romanesque style of St. Joseph in mind, with the arches and six 6’ columns. Its dome reminiscent of St. Peter Church in Rome. The front of the altar has an inlaid mosaic of Jesus the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, with Matthew, Mark, Luke and John at his side. It is further adorned with wheat and grapes which symbolize the Eucharistic celebration. There are also S/V symbols to honor St. Vincent de Paul, founder of the Congregation of the Mission and Patron of Charity. Consecrated on March 19, the has inlaid relics of Saints Dionysius, Gordianus, Longins the Soldier. The first Mass celebrated on it was on Holy Thursday by Pastor, Fr. Thomas Weldon, CM, who was well loved and guided the community from 1899-1921. The altar was a gift from Mr and Mrs Hugh McManus. According to tradition, St. Longinus is the centurion who pierced the side of Our Lord while He was hanging on the cross. St. Longinus, who was nearly blind, was healed when some of the blood and water from Jesus fell into his eyes. It was then he exclaimed "Indeed, this was the Son of God!" His very name Longinus means, “lance.” Today we honor all the Saints at whose festival the Angels rejoice and praise the Son of God. PARISH CALENDAR TREASURE & STEWARDSHIP 12 Nov., Thursday. Parish Council Meeting 6:30pm Reg. Collection Oct. 25, 2015 $ 2,637.00 24 Nov., Tuesday St. Joseph Peace Walk 6pm Thank you for your generosity ALTAR OF LIFE Our Christian faith reminds us of God’s plan that we would spend eternity with our Creator. Our Catholic Faith holds that all who are baptized in Christ are united in his love. At the Eucharist we become One Body in Christ. Early Christians would celebrate Mass at the graves of their deceased loved ones on the day that they entered eternal life. While it is not always possible to visit graves and niches to show our love for the faithful departed, the Altar of Life is a celebration of our unity in God and a reminder that those who have gone before us who are with God intercede for us in heaven just as we pray for them here on earth. Remember to put your name and phone number on back of the pictures and rememberances of your loved ones. TODAY’S READINGS First Reading — John’s vision of a vast throng from every nation and people, whose robes had been made white in the blood of the Lamb (Revelation 7:2-4, 9-14). Psalm — Lord, this is the people that longs to see your face (Psalm 24). Second Reading — By God’s love, we may be called God’s children (1 John 3:1-3). Gospel — The Beatitudes: your reward will be great in heaven (Matthew 5:1-12a). WE LONG TO SEE GOD’S FACE “Lord, this is the people that longs to see your face.” This antiphon for today’s responsorial psalm offers the focus for to- day’s readings.

Words cannot express enough the gratitude I feel towards my advisor Dr. Kristoffer Neville whose enthusiasm, guidance, knowledge and support made this thesis a reality. He encouraged me to think in ways I would have never dared to before. His wisdom has never failed to amaze me. I was first introduced to the work of Guarino Guarini in his undergraduate Baroque Art class, an intriguing puzzle that continues to fascinate me. I am also grateful for the help and encouragement of Drs. Conrad Rudolph and Jeanette Kohl, whose dedication and passion to art history has served as an inspiration and model for me. I am fortune to have such knowledgeable and generous scholars share with me their immense knowledge. Additionally, I would like to thank several other faculty members in UCR’s History of Art department: Dr. Jason Weems for giving me an in-depth understanding of the sublime which started me down this path, Dr.

  • 'The Mystic Drum': Critical Commentary on Gabriel Okara's
    University of Massachusetts Boston From the SelectedWorks of Chukwuma Azuonye 2011 ‘The ysM tic Drum’: Critical Commentary on Gabriel Okara’s Love Lyrics Chukwuma Azuonye, University of Massachusetts Boston Available at: https://works.bepress.com/chukwuma_azuonye/82/ ‘The Mystic Drum’: Critical Commentary on Gabriel Okara’s Love Lyrics: By Chukwuma Azuonye, PhD Professor of African & African Diaspora Literatures University of Massachusetts Boston Introduction In the course of reading a chapter entitled “Empty and Marvelous” in Alan Watts fascinating book, The Way of Zen (1957), a serendipitous key was provided, by the following statement from the teachings of Chinese Zen master,1 Ch’ing Yuän Wei-hsin (1067-1120), to the structure and meaning of the experience dramatized in Gabriel Okara’s most famous love poem, “The Mystic Drum”: 2 Before I had studied Zen for thirty years, I saw mountains as mountains and waters as waters. When I arrived at a more intimate knowledge, I came to the point where I saw the mountains are not mountains, and waters are not waters. But now that I have got its very substance I am at rest. For it’s just now that I see mountains once again as mountains and waters once again as waters. What is so readily striking to anyone who has read “The Mystic Drum” is the near perfect dynamic equivalence between the words of Ch’ing Yuän and the phraseology of Okara’s lyric. In line with Ch’ing Yuän’s statement, the lyric falls into three clearly defined parts—an initial phase of “conventional knowledge,” when men are men and fishes are fishes (lines 1-15); a median phase of “more intimate knowledge,” when men are no longer men and fishes are no longer fishes (lines 16-26); and a final phase of “substantial knowledge,” when men are once again men and fishes are once again fishes, with the difference that at this phase, the beloved lady of the lyric is depicted as “standing behind a tree” with “her lips parted in her smile,” now “turned cavity belching darkness” (lines 27-41).

Van Sloun Friday, March 30, 2018, 7:00 p.m. I have the name of a saint that is not very well known. Maybe you have heard about him. Maybe, probably not. His name is St. Longinus. For most of my life, I had never heard of St. Longinus. I made my first trip to Rome when I was a theology student. If a Catholic goes to Rome, a visit to St. Peter’s Vatican Basilica is a must. I entered the basilica and went to the high altar. It is under a beautiful canopy, the baldachino. It is where the Pope says Mass, like tomorrow for the Easter Vigil. It is above the tomb of St. Peter the apostle which is on the lower level. There are four huge statues around the altar. Of course, I went to take a picture of each of them. Two of them are women: St. Helena and St. Veronica. The other two are men: St. Andrew and St. Longinus. St. Longinus! Who is he? Why is this guy that I have never heard of get such a prominent place in the most important church of our faith? It was time to look for clues. Why these saints? St. Helena found the True Cross. St. Veronica wiped the face of Jesus when he was on the Way of the Cross.

  • The First Witnesses Martha, Longinus and Veronica in the Slavic
    http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/2084-140X.01.07 Studia Ceranea 1, 2011, p. 101-126 Małgorzata Skowronek (Łódź) The First Witnesses. Martha, Longinus and Veronica in the Slavic Manuscript Tradition (Initial Observations) The objective of the following study is to trace the fate – as it is related in the lit- erature of the Orthodox Slavs – of three characters known to us from Early Christian sources . The first of them appears under her own name in the canonical Gospels, where the second is also referred to (albeit rather imprecisely, and anonymously), while the third – originally a legendary figure – became ‘canonical’ though identifica- tion with another anonymous character from the New Testament . The material which we shall utilize to portray those three characters com- prises literary texts written hundreds of years apart, from the Ancient Christian times (2nd–3rd centuries) until the close of the Middle Ages (the Tale of Martha – 15th century) and originating from diverse cultural milieus . From among those that are employed in liturgy, we may mention the ‘microgenre’ of the sticheron (a verse sung during service conveying the fundamental significance of the li- turgical holiday), the so-called ‘short’ or ‘prologue’ lives of saints (found in the menologia in chronological order), the ‘extended’ lives (vita, gesta, enriching the factual material with rhetorical elements) and the passions (passio) . Another, lower register of the medieval system of genres is comprised by the customarily more popular texts such as the ‘tales’ (known as slovo, literally ‘word’, in the Slavic literary tradition and occasionally approximating the gesta: ‘story’ or narratio) and the legends, both genres incorporated and adapted into official texts .

  • Resurrection of the Lord April 21, 2019 Homily for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass of St
    Resurrection of the Lord April 21, 2019 Homily for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass of St. Thomas More Catholic Parish celebrated at St. Joseph Catholic Church 116 Theodore St. Scranton, PA 18508 John 20:1-9 On the tenth anniversary of our parish’s first pilgrimage to Rome, a number of our parishioners returned to the Eternal City. We had a great tour guide, who took us into St. Peter’s Basilica and spent a good amount of time with us underneath that church’s massive dome. The four pillars that hold up the dome double as shrines for some of the most important relics in all of Christendom. One of the pillars holds the lance that was used to pierce the side of Christ as he hung dead upon the Cross, causing the fifth of our Lord’s glorious wounds. At first glance it seems ridiculous that the Church should possess one of the weapons that was used in our Lord’s Passion. After all, the lance belongs not to the disciples of Jesus, but to the band of soldiers who literally killed Jesus, the ones who physically nailed him to the tree. But then we read the Book of Acts, from which we heard this morning, and the church’s possession of the soldiers’ lance no longer seems so implausible. The context of St. Peter’s speech in our first lesson is the conversion to the Catholic faith of Cornelius, the Roman centurion whom, with his household, St. Peter brought into the Church. This is the same speech in which the first Pope asserted, “Truly I perceive that God shows no partiality, but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him” (Acts 10:34-35).

It would be to the credit of modern scholarship if no intro- duction to the Treat! se of Longinus were necessarj'-, but unfortunately today the Essay on the Sublime is much less widely known than its worth deserves. The average college student knows little or noth- ing of the Treatise , and is more than likely to receive any refer- ence to Longinus with the skeptical indifference that would imply, if politeness permitted, "Ah yes, perhaps somewhere back in the ar- chives of time such an old fellow did really exist, but I'm sure he is not worth ray interest". As a matter of fact, the archives of time have nothing to do with Longinus and his Treatise on the Sub - lime . He exists as fully today, through the universality of his work, as he did in his own century.

  • Testament of Longinus
    John, Here’s a scan of that book I was telling you about. I think, after some consideration, it probably falls into your department rather than mine. I can’t imagine it’s anything other than a hoax, although it’s an undeniably fascinating hoax. Not only do we have in this strange little book a fictional piece of pseudepigraphia, but it’s accompanied by this weird bogus scholarship, as if a small committee really had thrashed out a new translation of some religious text that had never existed, in which the central messianic figure was not Jesus Christ but Saint Longinus, the centurion who in the stories thrust the spear into Christ’s side. I am sure that you’re familiar with that Borges story where they find a single copy of an encyclopedia that has an inexplicable extra entry about a country that does not exist? I feel like I have stumbled upon that book myself. It was mis-shelved in the university library when I found it. In the Greek Loebs, between Polybius and Polycrates, looking really out of place among those tatty little green hardbacks. I have it on my desk here, and the lettering on the front and spine says the title: Testament of Longinus. It didn’t have a number or a label. It looks like a small press piece, or maybe one of those new print-on-demand books. The publication date is given as last year. But it wasn’t a university acquisition. I thought about handing it in at the desk, should have done that, but..
