St. Gabriel the Archangel Catholic Church November 4, 2018 Thirty-First Sunday in Ordinary Time ST. GABRIEL THE ARCHANGEL CATHOLIC CHURCH STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION ON READINGS DT 6:2-6; PS 18; 2-4, 47,51; HEB 7: 23-28; MK 12: 28B-34 Today’s Gospel presents Jesus’ teachings on the two greatest commandments. Love the Lord with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. And, love your neighbor as yourself. Let’s consider these “greatest commandments” as they relate to three aspects of a Christian steward’s daily life — the giving of our time, talent and treasure. The use of time refers primarily to our relationship with the Lord — in other words, our prayer life. Since time is a gift to me from God, I show my love for Him and my gratitude for this gift by giving Him the best portion of my time. Of course it is vital to talk to God throughout the day, but if I really want to love Him with all my heart, soul, mind and strength, shouldn’t I make time for God “first” on my agenda each day? Not as an afterthought, but as a time I have intentionally chosen to spend only with Him. The use of talents refers to the way I offer the abilities, skills, and interests the Lord has given me for the good of those around me. Doing so is a practical way to “love my neighbor as myself.” At the same time it is also a way to love the Lord with all that I am and have, since He has told us that whatever we do for others we are also doing for Him. The use material gifts — or treasure — likewise demonstrates both love of God and of neighbor. When I trustingly offer a sacrificial gift to God through the offertory collection I am showing Him in a very tangible way that He comes before all else in my life and I am putting my material resources at the service of my neighbor in the parish community and beyond. When we live for God and others, we are living a stewardship way of life. And like the wise scribe in today’s Gospel, we are moving closer to the kingdom of God, our PARISH OFFICE ultimate destination. 8755 Scarborough Drive Colorado Springs, CO 80920 MASS SCHEDULE www.saintgabriel.net Weekend: Saturday 5:00 pm; Sunday 8:30 am, Hours: Monday-Friday 9:00 am-5:00 pm 10:30 am, 12:30 pm (Spanish) & 4:30 pm Phone: (719) 528-8407 Weekdays: Tuesday-Friday 12:15 pm Fax: (719) 598-1696 Email: [email protected] SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION PARISH CLERGY Tuesday-Friday: 11:50 am-12:10 pm, Saturday: 2:30- 3:30 pm.

  • Counter-Reformation Rome As Caput Mundi
    chapter 7 Romanus and Catholicus: Counter-Reformation Rome as Caput Mundi Simon Ditchfield Rome is not just a place to visit but an idea to “think with.” When Rome became headquarters of the first world religion with followers on all four continents then known to Europeans—Europe, Asia, Africa, and America—the Eternal City had been Christian for more than a millennium. In his famous sermon delivered on the feast of Sts. Peter and Paul (29 June), Pope Leo I (r.440–61) un- equivocally promoted the connection between Christian Rome and the “heav- enly Kingdom” of a celestial Jerusalem: For these are the men, through whom the light of Christ’s gospel shone on you, O Rome, and through whom you, who was the teacher of error, were made the disciple of Truth. These are your holy Fathers and true shepherds, who gave you claims to be numbered among the heavenly kingdoms, and built you under much better and happier auspices than they, by whose zeal the first foundations of your walls were laid: and of whom the one that gave you your name [Romulus] defiled you with his brother’s blood. These are they who promoted you to such glory, that being made a holy nation, a chosen people, a priestly and royal state [1 Peter 2:9], and the head of the world [caput mundi] through blessed Peter’s Holy See you attained a wider sway by the worship of God than by earthly government.1 In the early modern era, this very claim that Rome be considered caput mundi through the authority of St.

    Church History I: The Early Papacy (c. 64 – 452 AD) “And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” (Matt. 16:18-19 NRSV) Milestones on the Development of the Papacy c. 64 – Peter and Paul were mostly likely martyred at Rome in this year during a short burst of persecution against Christians under the Emperor Nero following a devastating fire in the capital. According to tradition, Peter had also been bishop of Antioch before coming to Rome and after leaving Jerusalem. c. 96 – Clement of Rome intervened in a dispute in a surviving letter to the church at Corinth, which we know as I Clement. Some Corinthian presbyters had been deposed and Clement reminded the congregation that the apostles “appointed bishops and deacons in every place” and it was these appointees who gave directions as to how the ministry was to continue. c. 190 – Pope Victor I ordered synods to be held throughout Christendom to bring the date for the observance of Easter into line with Roman custom. He was not successful. The title pope, derived from the Latin and Greek words for father, was used for the occupants of several of the major episcopal sees throughout the empire in this period, such as Alexandria and Antioch as well as Rome.

ATTILA MEETS THE POPE Raphael created a famous fresco, located in the Apostolic Palace in the Vatican, depicting the meeting between Pope Leo I and Attila the Hun. This image depicts a detail from that fresco. In the 5th century, the power of the Pope was not what it was in later centuries. But as Attila and his Huns were vanquishing city after city, the people of Rome - and the pope - were worried. Contemporary accounts tell us that Leo I, then Pope, traveled north to meet with Attila: The old man of harmless simplicity, venerable in his gray hair and his majestic garb, ready of his own will to give himself entirely for the defense of his flock, went forth to meet the tyrant who was destroying all things. He met Attila, it is said, in the neighborhood of the river Mincio, and he spoke to the grim monarch, saying "The senate and the people of Rome, once conquerors of the world, now indeed vanquished, come before thee as suppliants. We pray for mercy and deliverance. O Attila, thou king of kings, thou couldst have no greater glory than to see suppliant at thy feet this people before whom once all peoples and kings lay suppliant.

  • The History of the Indissolubility of Marriage
    THE HISTORY OF THE INDISSOLUBILITY OF MARRIAGE It is the teaching of the Church today that a valid ratified and consummated marriage cannot be dissolved by any human power and that such a marriage is terminated by death alone. This teaching, however, is being more frequently challenged today from within the Church and claims are being made that history provides evidence that the Church can grant divorces for consummated marriages between Christians. This study is an attempt to examine the sources that might help in discussions on the indissolubility of marriage. It does not purport to be an original study nor a completely comprehensive one. Its scope is limited to the first millennium of Christianity, after which time the indissolubility of the marital bond is, for practical purposes, estab- lished in the Church. This history gives particular emphasis to the sources of Western Christianity. I. FATHERS OF THE CHURCH A. Fathers of the West Her mas The earliest text is that of Hermas in the work, The Shepherd. It is usually dated in the period c. 140-150 though some authors assign it to the first century. Hermas was an inhabitant of Rome and his text gives us the teaching of the Roman Church in sub-apostolic times. His work was of such weight that in the early Church it was read in the service of the Church as holy Scripture. Hermas interro- gates the angel of penance what he should do if he learns that his wife is guilty of adultery and receives instructions from the angel: Sir, I said, if anyone has a wife who believes in the Lord, and he detect her in adultery, does the husband sin if he continue to live with her? He said to me: As long as he remains ignor- ant of her sin, he commits no transgression.

In Liberation of St. Peter, Raphael develops a typology of divine liberation from tyranny. Raphael (1483-1520), LIBERATION OF ST. PETER (1513). Fresco. 362 x 560 cm. Stanza d’Eliodoro, Vatican, Rome. Photo: © Scala / Art Resource, NY. Used by permission. Copyright © 2011 Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University Liberation from Tyranny BY HEIDI J. HORNIK n Acts 12, Luke recounts how King Herod—after he ordered James, the brother of John, “killed with the sword”—imprisoned Peter for preaching Ithe gospel about Christ. The believers in Jerusalem had identified King Herod and Pontius Pilate specifically as political leaders who conspired against Jesus (Acts 4:27); now the King was laying “violent hands upon some who belonged to the church” (Acts 12:1). The King intended to deliver Peter to his enemies after the Passover, but before this happened, Peter was delivered from prison. The very night before Herod was going to bring him out, Peter, bound with two chains, was sleeping between two soldiers, while guards in front of the door were keeping watch over the prison. Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He tapped Peter on the side and woke him, saying, “Get up quickly.” And the chains fell off his wrists. The angel said to him, “Fasten your belt and put on your sandals.” He did so. Then he said to him, “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me.” Peter went out and followed him; he did not realize that what was happening with the angel’s help was real; he thought he was seeing a vision.

Radosław Kimsza Politechnika Białostocka The spirituality of St. John XXIII (Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli) and his ministry of teaching in the encyclical of his pontificate (1959-1963) SUMMARY Życie i posługa A. G. Roncallego jako prezbitera i biskupa ukazuje prawdę właściwą teologii duchowości chrześcijańskiej o jej absolutnie pneumatolo- gicznym wymiarze. Stąd życie duchowe chrześcijanina określano jako życie w Duchu Świętym, a mówiąc o jego konstytutywności wskazywano na ciało, duszę i Ducha Świętego. Jednoczy On życie osobiste człowieka, z tym wszyst- kim, co je tworzy w ontyczną jedność. W przypadku osoby duchownej chodzi w tym wymiarze o jednoczenie tego kim się jest w porządku natury i łaski, z tym, co się głosi z jednoczesnym otwieraniem się na przenikanie życia i posługi Duchem Świętym. Nie czyni to w punkcie wyjścia z człowieka – prezbitera, biskupa świętego a raczej w doświadczeniu grzechu i słabości wprowadza na drogę nawrócenia i przemiany życia w kierunku ostatecznego zjednoczenia się z Bogiem w Jezusie Chrystusie. Stąd właśnie echo osobistego doświadczenia duchowego Roncallego w jego apostolskim posługiwaniu. Niniejsze studium jest próbą ukazania tej części nauczania św. Jana XXIII, która zawarta jest w encyklikach z odniesieniem jej do jego duchowości poznawanej w osobistych pismach.

  • Roman Missal
    Roman Missal The Roman Missal is the book containing the prescribed prayers, chants, and instructions for the celebration of Mass in the Roman Catholic Church. Published first in Latin under the title Missale Romanum, the text is then translated and, once approved by a recognitio by the Vatican Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, is published in modern languages for use in local churches throughout the world. In 2002, Saint John Paul II introduced a new edition of the Missale Romanum (editio typica tertia, the "third typical edition" [since the Second Vatican Council]) for use in the Church. Soon after, the complex work of translating the text into English began. As the Church in the United States introduced the new edition of the Missal in late 2011, so too did much of the English-speaking world. In addition, the Missale Romanum, editio typica tertia is being translated into other languages for use by the the Church in other countries. The process of implementing a new edition of the prayers of the Mass is not new, but has occurred numerous times throughout the history of the Church as the Liturgy developed and was adapted to particular circumstances to meet the needs of the Church. In the earliest centuries of the Church, there were no books containing prescribed liturgical prayers, texts, or other instructions. Because the faith of the Church was (and still is) articulated in liturgical prayer, there was a need for consistency and authenticity in the words used in the celebration of the Liturgy. Collections of prayers developed gradually for use in particular locations and situations such as for a particular monastery, for the Pope, or for other local churches.
