  • Annunciation Role-Play
    CATECHIST RESOURCE Annunciation Role-play NARRATOR: In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary. And coming to her, he said: ANGEL GABRIEL: Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you. NARRATOR: But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. Then the angel said to her: ANGEL GABRIEL: Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father, and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end. NARRATOR: But Mary said to the angel: MARY: How can this be, since I have no relations with a man? NARRATOR: And the angel said to her in reply: ANGEL GABRIEL: The holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. And behold, Elizabeth, your relative, has also conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren; for nothing will be impossible for God. NARRATOR: Mary said: MARY: Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord.

  • The Annunciation of the Lord (Isaiah 7:10-14.8-10 / Luke 1:26-38) 04.04.2016
    The Annunciation of the Lord (Isaiah 7:10-14.8-10 / Luke 1:26-38) 04.04.2016 This year we celebrate the Annunciation of the Lord in the light of the Easter feast. Indeed, because the 25th March fell during Holy Week, it is now in the glow of the Paschal candle that we read the gospel account of the Annunciation unto Mary. I see this strong symbol as presenting us with an invitation to look at the Annunciation event in the light of the resurrection of Jesus. It seems to me that just as the Risen Lord invited the Emmaus road travellers to read the whole message of the Scriptures in the light of His paschal mystery, so it is in this same light that He invites us to consider the mystery of the Annunciation today. The Resurrection and the Annunciation were clearly connected in the ancient Church: iconography bears witness to this. The Eastern Churches were attentive to the links which exist between the two mysteries. In Christian art – including in the West – we often find triptychs which unite the Resurrection and the Annunciation. This is surely significant. When we think of these two events we see similarities. Both the Annunciation to Mary and the Resurrection of Jesus took place out of the sight of witnesses. The actual Annunciation event was an intimate encounter between Mary and her Lord through the intermediary of the angel. No one other than Mary was there. The Resurrection event itself was not seen either. In both the Annunciation and the Resurrection we are given to contemplate the new life of Jesus that came forth from a place of darkness.

  • The Faith of Mary in Scripture
    The Faith of Mary in Scripture Only one passage in Scripture associates Mary with the noun πίστις , “faith” in Greek, or the verb πιστεύειν , “to believe.” This passage is Luke 1:45, which reads: “Blessed is she who believed—ἡ πιστεύσασα (aor. ptc. fem.)—that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord.” Here, the crucial point about Mary’s faith is that Mary is not praised for having believed in a set of doctrines or a dogma, but rather because she trusted the word of God. She trusted God to keep his promise. In other words, this passage is describing her faith as trust. Now, because the term “faith” is connected with Mary in only this verse in all of Scripture, the only way to gain further insight into her faith is by considering parallels drawn from other passages. One of these parallels concerns the very first word of Luke 1:45: µακαρία . This word places the praise and proclamation of Mary’s faith within the context of a macharism , or a beatitude: “Blessed is she…” The English translation, “blessed” does not render the meaning of µακάριος correctly, for this Greek adjective actually means “happy”—beatus in Latin; hence the word “beatitude,” rather than “blessing.” Because a macharism entails the promise of happiness and the promise of a concrete reward, we may conclude that Mary’s faith leads to a reward of happiness. The other only instance in the gospels where the adjective µακάριος is associated with the verb πιστεύειν is found in John 20:29, where the risen Jesus says to Thomas, “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe.” Not only does this verse contain the last beatitude proclaimed by Jesus in the gospels, but it also refers to faith.

Come, let us worship and fall down before God our King. Come, let us worship and fall down before Christ, our King and our God. Come, let us worship and fall down before Christ Himself, our King and our God. THE PSALM OF INTRODUCTION—PSALM 103 Reader: Bless the Lord, O my soul; O Lord my God, Thou hast been magnified exceedingly. Confession and majesty hast Thou put on, Who coverest Thyself with light as with a garment, Who stretchest out the heaven as it were a curtain; Who supporteth His chambers in the waters, Who appointeth the clouds for His ascent, Who walketh upon the wings of the winds, Who maketh His angels spirits, and His ministers a flame of fire. Who establisheth the earth in the sureness thereof; it shall not be turned back forever and ever. The abyss like a garment is His mantle; upon the mountains shall the waters stand. At Thy rebuke they will flee, at the voice of Thy thunder shall they be afraid. The mountains rise up and the plains sink down, unto the place where Thou hast established them. Thou appointedst a bound that they shall not pass, neither return to cover the earth. He sendeth forth springs in the valleys; between the mountains will the waters run. They shall give drink to all the beasts of the field; the wild asses will wait to quench their thirst.

Corcoran Collection (William A. Clark Collection) 2014.79.711.a ENTRY This highly detailed panel from a triptych by the Sienese painter Andrea di Vanni is a recent addition to the National Gallery of Art collection. One of the most prominent works acquired from the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the altarpiece consists of three panels depicting stories from the Passion of Christ. Attached by modern hinges, the two lateral panels can be folded over the central painting to protect it and facilitate transportation. When opened, the triptych’s panels represent, from left to right, Christ’s Agony in the Garden of Gethsemane, the Crucifixion, and the Descent into Limbo. Placed against a gold ground, each scene is set on a rocky outcropping that extends from one panel to the next, creating a formal coherence among scenes that took place at different times and places. The altarpiece’s left wing contains several episodes presented in a continuous narrative. In the middle ground, Christ kneels in prayer above a well-tended garden on the Mount of Olives. With his arms folded across his chest in a gesture of humility, he gazes heavenward toward a descending angel who holds out a Scenes from the Passion of Christ: The Agony in the Garden [left panel] 1 © National Gallery of Art, Washington National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS Italian Paintings of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries chalice.

  • The Rosary of Saint Joseph Published on the Website Aleteia.Org on March 5, 2018 Written by Philip Kosloski
    The Rosary of Saint Joseph published on the website aleteia.org on March 5, 2018 written by Philip Kosloski St. Joseph is one of the most popular saints of Christianity, and because of that there exist countless devotions to him. One such devotion is the Rosary of St. Joseph that uses the regular beads of the Marian rosary, but substitutes various prayers and mysteries to honor the foster-father of Jesus. It is a beautiful devotion, one that draws a soul closer to the beloved St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church. On the crucifix O Lord, in order to honor St. Joseph as he deserves, Thou hast taken him body and soul to Heaven to Crown him with glory, thus signifying to the world, both visible and invisible, that Thou hast made Joseph Thy foster-father, the supreme steward of all Thy possessions. After saying the above prayer, on the large bead say the following prayer. This prayer will also be said on the large beads starting each decade: We beseech Thee, O Lord, that we may find aid in the merits of the Spouse of Thy Most Holy Mother, so that what we cannot obtain by ourselves may be given us through his intercession, who livest and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God forever and ever. Amen. For each of the five decades, it is customary to meditate on events in the life of Joseph: 1. Betrothal to Mary (Mt 1:18). 2. Annunciation to Joseph (Mt 1:19-21).

  • The Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ Festival Holy Eucharist Dear Friends, Merry Christmas! We’Re So Glad You’Ve Joined Us Here for a Cathedral Christmas
    The Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ festival holy eucharist Dear friends, Merry Christmas! We’re so glad you’ve joined us here for a Cathedral Christmas. Please know that the doors of this Cathedral are always open to you, and that everyone has a home here in this house of prayer for all people. During this busy time of year, I sometimes wonder what draws people to church, especially for those who rarely or never go to church for the rest of the year. There are so many demands on our time, and the places we go or the people we visit say something about what’s important. So why do churches tug on our heartstrings at this time of year? The Christmas story, at its core, is about that moment in time when God chose to dwell among us. In the church, we call it the Incarnation. Christmas is about that moment when God came closest to us, when the veil between heaven and earth slipped away and we could see and touch the very face of God. I think churches are the same way, or at least we try to be. In this glorious Cathedral, where the majestic space draws our eyes toward Heaven, we get a glimpse of that moment when God comes close. If you pause for a moment, you can feel the same sense of the incarnate God, Emmanuel, God with us. This is a place where God feels close. Maybe that’s why you’re here, in this Cathedral, this Christmas. However you got here or whatever drew you here, thank you for letting us share that experience with you, and for joining us to encounter God anew at Christmas.
