(Lisa Richardson, Los Angeles Times, November 11, 2001) RCIA Study Session This description of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles' Big Tent Revival in Watts is indicative of the 10:00 a.m. spiritual emancipation ushered in by Vatican Council II over thirty years ago. A Catholic cardinal 330 Coleman-Morse Center invoking African ancestors at the Eucharistic Celebration gives witness to the import of cultural expression in the Catholic liturgical rite. This indigenous African ritual enhances the liturgical expe International Students rience and recalls the cross-cultural influences of the early Church.

However, it is during the 331 Coleman-Morse Center TIME." Mass rhar the Invocation has a special commemorative sig- nificance which unifies and blesses those gathered. Ancestor is a word which is seldom heard in Western main- stream conversations. In fact, to some, the word may em PS body a foreign, primitive, almost pagan connotation as it relates to our relationship with the dead and Freshman Retreat #38 the import of the Invocation in the liturgy. However, to invoke an ancestor brings hope and purpose (December 7-8, 2001) to the living and offers the blessed assurance that God's spirit remains with God's people until the end Monday, November 12 through of time. In the words of Priscilla Pope-Levison and John R. Levison in their book, jesus in Global Monday, December 3 Coutexts, "according to African traditional religion [Christianity is a~ indigenous African religion]• 114 Coleman-Morse Center God's life exists in abundance among the ancestors; they are a reservoir that brims with the life force from which the living derive the resources of life's wholeness and goodness." Ancient biblical writers used the term ancestor throughout Hebrew scripture to delineate Israelite genealogy and fuse the past with the present to determine the future (Genesis 10:21, Joshua 17:1, Leviticus 26:45, etc.). The Judea-Christian church, as it emerged in irs earliest stages in northern Africa, viewed Jesus of Nazareth as the ancestral and supernatural link bridging this life to the next. The living Christ brought courage to martyrs (Sts. Perperua and Felicity), wisdom to theologians (Tertullian, Origen, Sts. • Presiders Cyprian and Augustine), perseverance to mothers (Sr. Monica), and conviction to popes (Sts. Victor I, Melchiades, Basilica of the Sacred Heart and Gelasius I). These cross-cultural holy men and women dedicated their lives to the gospel ofJesus Christ and, over time helped to shape the teachings of the Catholic faith we practice today. Reviving the memories of these Saturday, November 17 Mass inspired patriarchs and matriarchs as ancestor in contemporary society provides hope and purpose to carry on. 30 minutes after game Vatican Council II and the Civil Rights Movement were simultaneous partners in the liberation of the soul.
