April 10 Holy Wednesday 10:00 am Holy Family Home Special Intention Holy Week We have begun the most sacred time of the church year, Holy Week. It is not merely a time to remember events of the past. On the contrary, we are invited to participate in the last days of Christ on earth. We are called to experience the sufferings and death of Jesus so that we may gloriously share in the Resurrection of Christ. Each day of this week is special. Lazarus Saturday & Palm Sunday introduce us to Holy Week. Yesterday's Gospel proclaimed how Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. This miracle not only foreshadows what is to come but also proclaims that Christ is the Giver of Life. On that first Palm Sunday, after hearing about this great miracle, people gathered in Jerusalem to welcome Jesus as King. Today we are asked to declare our allegiance to Christ, our King and God. Holy Monday, Holy Tuesday, & Holy Wednesday are known as the Bridegroom Days. The general theme of these days is our need to be prepared. The Scripture passage that is associated with these days is the parable of the ten virgins. Five of them were not prepared, but the five who filled their lamps with oil were prepared to receive the bridegroom. Christ is the Bridegroom. During the Presanctified Liturgy of Holy Wednesday, we are invited to receive the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick.

  • Avoiding Easter Saturday [First Published in the Methodist
    P a g e | 1 Avoiding Easter Saturday [First published in the Methodist publication Momentum, Issue 7, Spring 2008] The teacher and writer Alan Lewis used to talk of workshops that he’d led on the theme of Easter. The trouble was, he said, that groups were happy to talk about Good Friday but then they wanted to jump forward to Easter Day as quickly as possible. That long hiatus of Easter Saturday, when Jesus lies alone in a borrowed tomb, was to be avoided. Was that, Alan wondered, because we simply don’t like talking about death? And yet, he said, if we believe that God lived in and through Jesus Christ then it’s important for us to think not only about what was happening to Jesus, dead and buried, but what was happening to God… also dead and buried. It’s a tough idea to get your head round – that God, too, experiences death on the cross and “knows how to die”. Alan came to understand that the God’s aloneness and despair on Easter Saturday is precisely that part of the Easter story that most closely mirrors so much of our own human experience. Three events of the last century, he suggests, bring into focus the sense of despair we so often feel about our world: Auschwitz Hiroshima Chernobyl … three events that represent the possibility of soulless inhumanity, a nuclear winter and, at Chernobyl, “the terrible possibility of planetary death… the ultimate eco-catastrophe”.

  • Lent and Easter
    Lent and Easter Religion Media Centre Collaboration House, 77-79 Charlotte Street, London W1T 4LP | [email protected] Charity registration number: 1169562 The Christian season of Lent starts in 2020 on 26 February, with Easter Day on 12 April EASTER The Easter story of Jesus crucified and rising from the dead, happened at the time of the Passover in Jerusalem, so the Christian Church celebrates Easter about the same time. The date of the Passover, however, depends on the Jewish lunar year, which is 11 days shorter than a solar year, so, for most of their history, Christians have calculated Easter independently of the Jewish calendar. In 325, the Council of Nicaea established that Easter would be held on the first Sunday after the first full moon occurring on or after the northern hemisphere spring or vernal equinox. Since the early Middle Ages, the calculation for this has been named the computus (Latin for “computation”) as it was considered the most important computation of the age. It involves applying lunar months to the solar year, calculating “golden numbers” and cross-referencing tables. The simple way is to check a lectionary or the Church of England Common Worship book or Book of Common Prayer, which provides a table of calculated dates. EARLIEST AND LATEST The earliest and latest possible dates for Easter are 22 March and 25 April, in the Gregorian calendar. However, in the Orthodox, or Eastern, churches, while those dates are the same, they are reckoned using the Julian calendar: 4 April and 8 May. WHY NOT FIX THE DATE? There have been serious discussions about fixing or unifying the date of Easter involving the Anglican, Roman Catholic and Orthodox churches but no agreement has yet been reached.

  • The Carmelite Praying with Jesus of the Gospels
    The Carmelite praying with Jesus of the Gospels Foreword St Teresa of Jesus throughout her life shared a vibrant friendship with Jesus, albeit at a period in time it was low key. In hindsight, one could describe their friendship as a real companionship. It was not an ordinary one either. For her, it meant being one with him in his divine redemptive mission. This affirmation could be said of a great number of saintly Christians, men and women, down the ages. However, something which characterises her above the average saint is that she was a charismatic contemplative and a reforming founder of contemplatives. Teresa of Jesus grew up nurturing her friendship through the faithful exercise of meditative contemplation from the heart. This was a secret she treasured and extolled in her writings, and fully expressed in talking about it to her nuns and friends alike. She learned it in nascent form from an Augustinian sister friend while still in her teens: while in prayer she endeavoured always to imagine that she was personally present with her heart close to Jesus in whatever he happened to give his attention to in the Gospels. In my lifelong endeavour to promote spirituality in my pastoral ministry, Teresa’s way of prayer always intrigued and guided me. In recent years, with more time available for prayer and writing, the Lord is granting me a reserve of energy and inclination to channel everyday grace into worthwhile attempts to document historical facts, insights, discoveries and lines of thought into writing. Already a sixteen-year collaboration has produced the publication of the spirituality review ‘Teresa’.

ABOUT THIS ISSUE …. This Issue #4 is devoted to the main theme - the traditional Ukrainian style Easter celebrations as they unfolded starting with Palm Sunday through the following three weeks to the Commemorative Sunday Parish Communal Meal held on 19 May. There were so many features associated with this year’s celebrations that deserve to be noted that it has become difficult to include all the desirable material in a single issue of TRACTOR – the file would be too big for e-mail systems to cope with efficiently and effectively. Therefore, the desired material on the Ukrainian Easter theme has been divided into a series of smaller PARTS of the same Issue #4. Each PART will be a continuation of Issue #4, but will be limited to a particular feature of this year’s traditional Ukrainian Easter celebrations. As a result, each file will be smaller. The main content of each PART will be: Issue #4: PART A – Verbna Nedilya (Ukrainian Palm Sunday) 28/4/2013 Issue #4: PART B – Easter Saturday Blessing of pasky and Velykden (Easter Sunday) Issue #4: PART C – Commemorative Sunday (Pomynalna nedilya) and Services at cemeteries Issue #4: PART D – Improvements done, Improvements in progress, and potential improvements ….

  • GOSPEL Short: Mark 15:1-39
    GOSPEL short: Mark 15:1-39 The passion of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark. First thing in the morning, the chief priest together with the elders and scribes, in short the whole Sanhedrin, had their plan ready. They had Jesus bound and took him away and handed him over to Pilate. Fr Van Nguyen, Parish Priest Pilate questioned him, ‘Are you the king of the Jews?’ ‘It is you who say it’ he answered. And the Marie Caldareri, Secretary (Tues, Wed, Thurs) chief priests brought many accusations against him. Pilate questioned him again, ‘Have you no reply at Phone: 9790 1933 Fax: 9796 3962 all? See how many accusations they are bringing against you!’ But to Pilate’s amazement, Jesus made no further reply. Email: [email protected] Website: www.stfelixparish.org.au At festival time Pilate used to release a prisoner for them, anyone they asked for. Now a man called Barabbas was then in prison with the rioters who had committed murder during the uprising. When the crowd went up and began to ask Pilate the customary favour, Pilate answered them, ‘Do you want me WEEKEND MASS TIMES to release for you the king of the Jews?’ For he realised it was out of jealousy that the chief priests had Saturday: 6pm (Vigil), handed Jesus over. The chief priest, however, had incited the crowd to demand that he should release Sunday: 8am, Barabbas for them instead. Then Pilate spoke again. ‘But in that case,’ he said ‘what am I to do with the man you call king of the Jews?’ They shouted back.

  • Theme for This Easter Reflection: Readiness to Encounter Jesus
    Theme for this Easter Reflection: Readiness to encounter Jesus Easter faith involves readiness to encounter Jesus as ‘a living personal presence’. It is not primarily about respecting his heroic witness, or even about contemplating and applying his remarkable teaching. Believers learn to experience his presence among them in every age as they discern their purpose and mission in life. We, as worshippers, say “Amen” to the reality of that presence when we gather for the Eucharist on Easter Sunday and every Sunday — remembering and celebrating the resurrection of Jesus. Our remembrance of Holy Week and our Easter celebrations will be different this year as we are not able to gather in one physical space to pray together. In whatever way you can in the coming days, take some time to reflect on the following: Holy Thursday focus: we encounter Jesus around the table with his friends and the one who would betray him, washing their feet, celebrating the Last Supper, the Eucharist, and inviting his friends to do the same in memory of him. Bring to mind and give thanks for family and friends with whom you would normally be sharing a meal in these days. Good Friday focus: we encounter Jesus as he is lifted up on the cross. How might we lift up the spirits of those who are suffering greatly at this time? Easter Saturday focus: we encounter Jesus in this in-between time, this time of waiting. Let’s not be so focused on the future or the past that we miss the gifts offered in the in- between moments.
