THE FIFTH SUNDAY OF LENT March 21, 2021 Notes on the Gospel The gospel today can be divided into three sections: the request of the audience, Jesus' comments on self-giving, and the glory/judgment of the Father. With a Gentile audience, Jesus can reveal the meaning of servanthood and give glory to God. Some of the (non-Jews) were going up (to Jerusalem) so that they might worship in the (Passover) festival. They approached Philip, and asked him to see Jesus. Philip told Andrew about the request, and Andrew and Philip told Jesus. In a group oriented culture, a request by two people in front of the group was honorable. These non-Jews were later known as "righteous" Gentiles, people who honored the Jewish people and their God. These foreigners wanted to investigate the possibility of becoming disciples. They had heard about Jesus (i.e., his reputation or "glory") and wanted to "see" if they could follow him. These foreigners were fellow pilgrims, seekers of the true God. They mingled with the Jews at Passover, a celebration of the people's freedom by God's hand. The stage was set for the universal Messiah to reveal his true self, his true "glory." The Passover of the people would become the Passover of the Messiah. Jesus answered them, saying, "The hour has come so that the Son of Man might be given glory. Amen, Amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falling to the ground dies, it remains alone. But if it dies, it carries much fruit. The one loving his (life) destroys it. The one hating his (life) in this world will save it into eternal life. The Son of Man did not seek the praise of men, but the opportunity to unite all people to God. And, so, to give them eternal life. Jesus spoke of a glory only service brings. The analogy of the wheat grain addressed the priorities of people. Those who selfishly clung to life would remain on the stalk alone, and would wither away. Those who gave their lives to others would die, but see others live and would enjoy eternal life. Through His obedience, Jesus revealed his glory as God's "Servant." This image was the internal paradox of the community. To be a servant of the Lord (his follower), one must serve him and others. The servant served the servants, creating an equality among the followers of Jesus.

    Issue 54 July/August 2019 Archbishop Michael Neary to lead annual Croagh Patrick Pilgrimage on Ireland’s holy mountain Archbishop Michael Neary, Archbishop of Tuam, will lead the annual Reek Sunday Pilgrimage which will take place this weekend on Ireland’s holy mountain Croagh Patrick.

During Reek Sunday, Mass will be celebrated every hour on the summit, beginning at 8.00am, with the final Mass commencing at 2.00pm. Father Stephen Farragher will celebrate Mass as Gaeilge at 10.00am. Archbishop Neary will celebrate Mass at 11.00am and Bishop Fintan Monahan will celebrate Mass at 12.00noon. Pilgrims may also avail of the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) at the summit from 7.30am to 2.00pm. Croagh Patrick is a physically demanding pilgrimage. Intending pilgrims should make themselves aware in advance of health and safety information about the mountain. Pilgrims should also heed the instructions of stewards, the mountain rescue teams, Order of Malta, and Gardaí. For more information see www.catholicbishops.ie.

  • Ordination to the Episcopate of Fr Martin Hayes
    ORDINATION TO THE EPISCOPATE OF Very Rev. Martin Hayes as Bishop of Kilmore Fourteenth-century seal of the clergy of Kilmore (Courtesy of the British Museum) Cathedral of St Patrick & St Felim, Cavan SUNDAY 20TH SEPTEMBER 2020 Abbeyset Print + Design 049 433 1932 Cathedral of St Patrick & St Felim Cavan You are very welcome to the cathedral of SS Patrick and Felim here in Cavan town. It is the mother church of the Roman Catholic diocese of Kilmore. The medieval cathedral of Kilmore was established in 1455 by Bishop Andrew MacBradaigh when he nominated the church of St Feidhlimidh in the parish of Kilmore as his diocesan cathedral. This continued to be the Catholic cathedral of the diocese until after the Reformation when it became the Church of Ireland cathedral of Kilmore. Then for a period of approximately 300 years there was no Catholic cathedral in the diocese until 1862 when Bishop James Browne nominated the parish church of Cavan town, which was dedicated to St Patrick, as his cathedral. The present cathedral of St Patrick and St Felim was built, at a cost of £209,000, between the years 1938 and 1942 during the episcopacy of Bishop Patrick Lyons. The architect was W. H. Byrne & Son and the contractor was John Sisk & Son. The cathedral was dedicated on 27 September 1942. The cathedral is neo-classical in style with a single spire rising to 230 feet. The portico consists of a tympanum supported by four great columns of Portland stone with Corinthian caps. The tympanum figures of Christ, St Patrick and St Felim were created by the Dublin sculptor Edward Smith.

We feel the need of a continent which is a “home for peoples” in a global world, conscious that Europe, like every other continent, has a specific gift to offer to the Assembly, which took place in the Principality journey of the whole of humanity.” of Monaco from 6-9 October 2016, which called As can be deduced from this relationship, “CCEE on CCEE to be “attentive to the process of is called to be, in its specific way, leaven in the secularisation which is marking Europe, to that European history, so that the continent might living as if God did not exist, which is the rediscover its own Christian roots which are the premise of the new practical materialism”.
