 JOYFUL EASTER NEWS
JESUS ABIDES WITH US IN THE EUCHARIST

The Glad Tidings of Easter with a Bit of Apprehension. Chrisans revel in joy over the Good News of the Resurrecon during the Easter season, but there is an underlying cause for worry. The Ascension is celebrated on the Seventh Sunday of Easter, and with the Ascension, the physical presence of Jesus in bodily form and audible voice is over. With Jesus no longer in Nazareth, Capernaum, or Jerusalem, and with Jesus no longer speaking in the synagogues, on the hillside, or along the seashore, where is the presence of Jesus to be found?

Reassurances of the Abiding Presence of Jesus. On the Second Sunday of Easter there is a horizontal thread that connects the first readings from the Acts of the Apostles for Years A, B, and C that highlights how Jesus connues to be present in the community of believers. On the Third Sunday of Easter there is another horizontal thread, this me in the gospels of Years A, B, and C, that highlights how Jesus connues to be present in the Eucharist.

The Third Sunday of Easter, Year A (Lk 24:13R35). On Easter Sunday a ernoon Jesus appeared to Cleopas and another disciple as they walked to Emmaus. That evening they ate together, and Jesus “took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them” (Lk 24:30), and as they shared the breaking of the bread they recognized that it was Jesus and experienced his special presence with them. Jesus had performed this Eucharisc acon twice before, first when he fed the five thousand (Lk 9:16), and then, most importantly, at the Last Supper The Eucharist
(Lk 22:14R20), when Jesus added, “This is my body, which will be given for you; do St. Pius X Catholic Church
this in memory of me” (Lk 22:19b). Jesus was present to the five thousand, the Onida, SD
twelve apostles, and Cleopas and another disciple, and Jesus is present to us in the breaking of the bread.

The Third Sunday of Easter, Year B (Lk 24:35R48). The allusion to the Eucharist is more subtle, but it is intenonal and significant. When Jesus appeared to the disciples in Jerusalem on Easter Sunday night, Jesus tried to reassure them that it was actually him present by showing them his hands and his feet. To further reassure them he decided to eat something in front of them, and “they gave him a piece of baked fish” (Lk 24:42). The food choice is no accident. It could have been figs, dates, olives, cheese, or lamb, all very common foods, but it was fish. The menon of fish comes immediately a er the menon of bread in the Emmaus encounter previously (Lk 24:30). The other fish meal in the gospel of Luke is the feeding of the five thousand when Jesus mulplied two fish (Lk 9:13,16). Jesus was present when he ate fish in front of his disciples, and Jesus
Fish, Jesus’ Easter Sunday night dinner
is present when we share his Eucharisc meal.

Clearwater, FL
The Third Sunday of Easter, Year C (Jn 21:1R19). The risen Jesus appeared to his disciples along the Sea of Tiberias. They had been fishing all night and caught nothing, but then made a miraculous catch. Once they hauled their nets ashore they found Jesus standing near a charcoal fire “with fish on it and bread” (Jn 21:9b). Then “Jesus came over and took the bread and gave it to them, and in like manner the fish” (Jn 21:13). Jesus was personally present to the disciples as they ate their meal with him, a Eucharisc acon prefigured when Jesus fed a large crowd with five loaves and two fish (Jn 6:1R 13). On Holy Thursday night Jesus ancipated his physical departure so he promised his disciples, “I will not leave you orphans” (Jn 14:18), and he fulfills his promise through his ongoing presence in the breaking of the bread, the Eucharist.

APRIL 21, SAINT ANSELM,
Bishop and Doctor of the Church

St. Anselm was born in 1033 in Aosta in Piedmont, Italy. His father strictly controlled the family home. When Anselm was fi een he wanted to join the Benedicne monastery in Aosta, but his father refused to allow it, so when Anselm turned twentyRthree he le home, traveled across the Alps, and went to Burgundy, France, where he went to study.

In 1059 he became a friend of Lanfranc, the prior of the Benedicne abbey in Bec, Normandy, and he became a Benedicne monk there in 1060. Anselm made rapid progress in the spiritual life, and he taught theology to his fellow students. Three years later Lanfranc was elected abbot of another abbey and Anselm replaced him as prior. Anselm developed a reputaon as an excellent preacher, he did much to reform monasc life, and he was greatly loved by his fellow monks. He was consecrated abbot of the Bec Abbey in 1078, and he maintained close contact with his mentor Lanfranc who had become Archbishop of Canterbury.

Lanfranc died in 1089, and in 1092 the English clergy, who had come to know Anselm because of his visits to England to care for Benedicne property there, elected Anselm as his successor. Anselm insisted on the spiritual independence of the diocese and would not tolerate government interference, and as a result King William II refused to confirm his elecon.

Anselm moved to Canterbury in 1093, and the conflict with King William II escalated. The king demanded a large payment for his nominaon as bishop, which he refused to pay, and would not allow him to convene synods. King William demanded that Pope Urban I remove Anselm, and he threatened to confiscate church property if he did not do so. Anselm was exiled in 1097.
He went to Cluny, Lyons, and then to Rome, where he tendered his resignaon. Pope Urban I reaffirmed his confidence in Anselm, ordered King William to permit his return, and insisted that all confiscated monies and properes be given back. Before Anselm’s return to England, Urban asked Anselm to aend Saint Anselm
the Council of Bari (1098) where he effecvely defended Filioque, the Church’s Our Lady and the English Martyrs doctrine of the double procession of the Holy Spirit from both the Father and
Cambridge, England
the Son.

Anselm returned to England in 1100. King Henry I had assumed the throne a er William’s death, and another round of disputes began. Henry insisted on the lay investure of bishops and abbots. Anselm refused. Henry threatened further confiscaon of church revenue and property and sent Anselm into exile in 1103. Again, he returned to Rome. The new Pope, Paschal II, fully backed Anselm and refused to accede to Henry’s demands. When Anselm did return, the archbishop and the king reached a concordat: the king would no longer seek to invest bishops and the church would pay tribute to the king in the temporal realm.

Anselm is remembered as a brilliant theologian and philosopher, and he is regarded as the Father of WEEKLY READINGS Scholascism. He is responsible for the definion of theology, “fides quaerens intellectum,” “faith seeking Readings for the week of April 18, 2021
understanding.” He is the author of a number of major Sunday: Acts 3:13R15, 17R19/Ps 4:2, 4, 7R8, 9 [7a]/1 Jn 2:1R5a/ works: Monologium, metaphysical proofs on the existence  Lk 24:35R48 of God; Proslogion, “Allocuon,” on the aributes of God; Monday: Acts 6:8R15/Ps 119:23R24, 26R27, 29R30 [1ab]/Jn 6:22R29 Cur Deus Homo, “Why God Became Man,” a reflecon on

STEWARDSHIP

“Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, ‘Peace be with you.’
But they were startled and frightened…” R LUKE 24:36R37

Throughout the day we have many opportunies to “see the face of Jesus” in others and to “be the face of Jesus” to others.
Do we take that opportunity to provide “peace” to those we encounter or are we afraid of what others will think of us and do nothing?
Pray for the strength and courage to live a “GodRcentered” life and not a “selfRcentered” life.
