    FEBRUARY 2013 FEAST DAYS Saturday, February 2 — Presentation of the Lord This feast commemorates Mary’s purification and the presentation of Jesus in the temple. In the Middle Ages, a tradition began of blessing candles and holding a procession of light on this day. As a result it is also known as “Candlemas”— Christ our light has come to us. We also remember the first members of the Bordeaux Sodality who made their first act of consecration on Feb. 2, 1801. Wednesday, February 6 — Saint Paul Miki and Companions In the late 16th century, 26 martyrs of Japan were crucified on a hill. Brother Paul Miki, a Jesuit scholastic, is the best known among these martyrs. When missionaries returned to Japan in the 1860s, at first they found no trace of Christianity. But after establishing themselves they found that thousands of Christians lived around Nagasaki and had secretly preserved the faith. Beatified in 1627, the martyrs of Japan were canonized in 1862. Friday, February 8 — Saint Josephine Bakhita Josephine was born around 1869 in Sudan and raised in the Islamic faith. She was kidnapped as a child by slave traders who gave her the name “Bakhita,” meaning “lucky one.” She was purchased by an Italian consul who brought her to Italy. There she lived with the Canossian Sisters in Venice and was formally introduced to the faith, baptized, and eventually granted her freedom. In 1896 she joined the Canossian Daughters of Charity. She died in 1947. Pope John Paul II canonized this first Sudanese saint in October 2000. Monday, February 11 — Our Lady of Lourdes This memorial honors the mystery of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Friday, February 3 — Memorial of Saint Blaise, Bishop & Martyr St. Blaise was a well educated physician who became Bishop of Sebaste in Armenia. He was persecuted by Agricola, the famous Roman general, who ordered Blaise to renounce his faith. When Blase refused he was thrown into prison where he helped sick prisoners and famously saved a child who was choking on a fish bone. He died in the fourth century and is associated with the healing of throats.

  • Celebrating Catholic Schools Week at Saint Mary Parish with the Students, Families and Teachers of Pope John XXIII School
    Saint Mary Parish F S O T E 1865 F 3, 2019 Celebrating Catholic Schools Week at Saint Mary Parish with the students, families and teachers of Pope John XXIII School Catholic Schools Week Closing Mass Sunday, February 3 at 9:30 a.m. Saint Mary Parish 1012 Lake Street Evanston, Illinois stmaryevanston.org REFLECTION REV. KEVIN MCCRAY, PASTOR The writer Mark Twain was once heard to say, “What gets us into trouble is not what we don’t know. It’s what we know for sure that just ain’t so.” In the readings today, we hear about a people who think they know all about Jesus---who he is, and who he isn’t. They refuse to recognize him as a prophet, as the Son of God, and as the Messiah. As we began last week to hear this story, Jesus, the hometown boy, is in the synagogue. He proclaims the word of God, he expounds upon it, and the people are amazed. But then in a short time, they began to question both him and his teachings. Amazement turns into fury when these people try to cut Jesus down to their size, as they try to diminish him by his family lineage and the message that he preaches. Rev. Kevin McCray “Isn’t this the son of Joseph….Is this not the carpenter, the son of Mary?” The people in the synagogue are all thinking, “Look, we know him, we know his family, we have seen him grow from a small child in these last thirty years---a nice guy--- but he is nothing special---look, he hasn’t healed a single leper since he came back home.

  • Reflections on Meaning and History, the Philippines and Japan
    This paper is presented here as received from the author. Its contents are the author’s sole responsibility. Reflections on Meaning and History, the Philippines and Japan AMBETH R. OCAMPO 1. THERE was a new wave of nationalism sweeping through the Department of History in the University of the Philippines (Diliman) in the late 1980s that grounded itself on understanding the past from the Filipino point of view and expressing it in the National Language, Filipino, instead of English that was seen as a language borrowed or imposed by a half-century colonial experience with the United States of America. Although I was not a UP student in the mid- 1980s I was allowed to attend the undergraduate historiography class of Zeus Salazar who was the force behind the Pantayong Pananaw (Our Perspective) school of Philippine history. Since English was my first language, and the language of instruction in all my years of schooling from the primary to the post-graduate level I realized that some things did not translate easily between English and Filipino. History, for example, could be translated into Filipino in two ways: Historya from the Spanish Historia; and Kasaysayan from Tagalog. Historya, according to Salazar, both as word and concept was inferior to the kasaysayan because (h)istorya like related words: historia (Spanish), histoire (French) and geschichte (German) was rooted in the word “story” or “narrative.” Salazar argued for Kasaysayan on the basis that it was rooted in two words: salaysay (story/narrative) and more importantly saysay (sense/meaning). Kasaysayan being a story about the past, that has meaning for its readers.
