    Good News! The Monthly Newsletter of St. Paul Lutheran Church * April 2017 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Does Anyone Really Get Excited About Easter Anymore? In your Easter bonnet With all the frills upon it You'll be the grandest lady In the Easter Parade In 1933, the great American songwriter Irving Berlin published a song that he titled Easter Parade. In 1948 it was immortalized in a movie (also called Easter Parade) that featured Judy Garland and Fred Astaire. Although the story of the movie is fictional, the event it portrayed – a million or more people, all dressed in their Easter finery, parading down Fifth Avenue in Manhattan on Easter Sunday – had started as a spontaneous event in the 1870’s and had grown more popular with each passing year. It might surprise you to know that the concept of the Easter parade – or, more correctly, an Easter procession – has a strong religious background. In a tradition still followed by some churches (including some Lutheran churches), the faithful would gather outside the church on Easter morning and process together into the sanctuary as Easter hymns of joy were sung. This coincided with another ancient tradition, where newly catechized Christian converts were baptized at sunrise on Easter Sunday, dressed in white robes to symbolize purity and holiness. Soon after he legalized Christianity in 313 A.D., Roman Emperor Constantine issued a ruling that Christians should dress in their finest clothes and parade in honor of Christ’s resurrection. One other religious-related aspect of the Easter parade is that less than 200 years ago, churches usually did not make any efforts to beautify their sanctuaries on Easter morning.

Dzisiaj święcimy w Kościele tylko symboliczne pokarmy, które mieszczą się w niewielkim, zazwyczaj wiklinowym koszyku. Zawartość takiej święconki może być też różna, w zależności od danego regionu. Nie może jednak zabraknąć: jajek, chleba, kiełbasy lub wędlin, soli, baranka (z masła lub cukru), chrzanu oraz kawałka domowego ciasta. Dawniej święcono wszystkie pokarmy, które miały zostać spożyte w czasie wielkanocnego śniadania! Układano je w większych koszach i zanoszono do kościoła lub święcono przy kapliczce.

  • The Ritualisation of Food, Home and National Identity Among Polish Migrants

Special issue, ed. By M.Rabikowska. The Ritualisation of Food, Home and National Identity among Polish Migrants in London. Marta Rabikowska1 School of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of East London, UK Abstract In this paper a process of negotiating identity among Polish migrants will be discussed in relation to their food habits: consumption, preparation and celebration. Through the ethnographic examination of food rituals the construction of meaning of home as both space and nationality will be observed and the attitude to the host culture will be revealed in the quotidian activities. The qualitative research based on interviews and visual ethnography has shown that there are three dominant ways of exchange with the local culture ranging from the least present to the ostentatiously conspicuous, named here as: orthodox, porous, and alternate. Each of them, however, is characterised by a perplexing degree of fluidity and sometimes contradiction which opposes the objectification of the models of culture, as had been already noticed by Bhaba (1994/2007) in relation to diasporic cultures and their tactics of adaptation. Home among Polish immigrants to the UK is a changing concept, open to negotiation, depending on their current 1 Corresponding author: Marta Rabikowska. Email. [email protected] 2 personal situation, profession, gender, expectations, ambitions and even peer pressure. Yet (re)creating home requires a certain dose of familiarity conceived from the meaning of Polishness which needs to be materialised from the past memories on a daily basis.

  • Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday
    Christianity Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday Summary: Lent, a period of forty days (excluding Sundays) from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday, is a time of penitence and preparation for Christians, many of whom strengthen their faith through study, prayer, fasting or abstinence. Its restriction and solemnity contrast the joys of Easter, the Sunday celebration of Christ’s resurrection from the dead. “Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return.” The priest or minister speaks these words, inscribing a small cross of ashes on the forehead of each person who comes to the special Ash Wednesday service at the beginning of Lent. The season of Lent lasts for forty days, from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday, and the count excludes Sundays. It is a solemn drama in which Christians are to prepare themselves, through fasting and prayer, to accompany Christ in the events of Holy Week, including his betrayal, his crucifixion, his death, and his resurrection. Lent is the church’s great season of penitence, abstinence, and preparation and is said to correspond to the forty days Jesus spent in the wilderness preparing for his public ministry. In the early church, this was the initiatory season in which new Christians were prepared through instruction and catechism for the initiation of baptism, which took place on Easter Sunday. Today, Lent is still a time of preparation for baptism. It is also a time for all Christians to strengthen their faith through study and reflection, fasting and abstinence. In Protestant and Catholic churches, some form of fasting or some daily practice of study and prayer is encouraged during Lent.

  • Luke 19.28-44 Jromig Easter Parade Sermon Web V0
    Mar 9, 2019 Luke 19:28-44 The Certain Gospel: The Easter Parade Jonathan M. Romig CornerstoneWestford.com You may remember our sermon series “The Certain Gospel” in Luke that we started last year. We’re going to go back to Luke and slow down for the closing chapters. We won’t be able to hit everything, but we will focus more time on his entry today, the night of his betrayal, his crucifixion, resurrection, and the closing chapters of Luke. Lord willing that will set us up for Acts in the fall. This will line us up more closely to the Easter Holiday. Let me pray. I grew up in Estes Park Colorado. Every year on the day after Thanksgiving Estes hosts a Catch the Glow parade. Even though it was cold we would get bundled up, walk down the street from my house about a half mile to the center of town, and watch the parade go by. There was always that anticipation at the beginning. When is it going to start? You would always keep looking up the street for the first signs of flashing lights, either the police or fire department to start the parade. Then the parade starts and bands, and floats, and people and pets dressed in all sorts of Holiday costumes would walk by. It was a fun time. We have parades around here, the Westford Apple Blossom Parade and the Chelmsford July 4th Parade. We at Cornerstone have participated in three Apple Blossoms Parades in Westford, and one July 4th Parade in Chelmsford.
