GORZKIE ZALE February 10, 2008 3:00 PM Page Two First Sunday of Lent February 10, 2008 GORZKIE ZALE February 10, 2008 3:00 PM Page Two First Sunday of Lent February 10, 2008 GORZKIE ZALE February 10—3:00 PM Gorzkie Zale (Bitter Lamentations ) is a Lenten devotional service that grew out of Poland’s unique culture and spirituality. In the late Middle Ages, Passion Plays were popular in Poland as they were in England and in the German states. Then, as now, religious drama is a vivid and effective form of evangelization. Passion Plays and popular hymnody are the provenance of Gorzkie Zale. Gorzkie Zale evolved from the planctus of lament of the Blessed Virgin sung during the Good Friday veneration of the cross. Originally in Latin, the Virgin’s lament was translated into Polish and even regional dialects. Gorzkie Zale skillfully counterpoints the Passion of the Lord and the Sorrows of the Blessed Vir- gin. Fr. Wawrzyniec Stanislaw Benik of the Brotherhood of St. Roch is responsible for compiling and printing the service in 1707. Originally entitled Snopek Mirry (A Bundle of Myrrh), Gorkzie Zale was first celebrated by Fr. Szczepan Wierzkowski at Holy Cross Church Warsaw. Gorzkie Zale has a three-fold structure. Each section has: 1. A meditation—hymn that reflects upon the Passion and Death of the Lord; 2. A lamentation that expresses sorrow for sins; 3. A sympathetic “dialogue” of the soul with the Sorrowful Mother. St. Isaac Jogues Parish will offer a Polish-English Gorzkie Zale on Sunday (February 10) at 3:00 PM Fr. Zdzislaw (Jason) Torba will preside and preach. Soloists and an accompanist from the Lira Ensemble will lead the congregation in hymns and responses. Our adaptation of Gorzkie Zale will include traditional exposition of the Blessed Sacrament . “BEGINNING AND END”: Made and Re-made in God’s Image In my beginning is my end. In succession Houses Rise and fall, crumble, and are extended Are removed, destroyed, restored, or in their place Is an open field, or a factory, or a by-pass. Old stone to new building, old timber to new fires. Old fire to ashes, and ashes to earth… Bone of man and beast, cornstalk leaf . - East Coker, T.S. Eliot Spring is a season of opposing forces. Life and death hang in the balance. Everywhere there are signs of elemental struggle, beginnings and ends. It is no coincidence that English-speaking Christians call the 40 days of preparation for Christ’s Passover “Lent.” Lent, in its Saxon root, means “Springtime.” As a “journey to new life” and a “spiritual battle- ground,” our 40-day ascent to Easter is well named! Lent invites us to reflect on nature’s springtime: to turn toward God’s light and, forsaking the dark, cold isolation of sin, to come alive! Historically, Lent has had a dual purpose—to prepare converts for initiation and to reconcile sinners through penance. Both sides of Lent stress LIFE IN CHRIST AND RENEWAL FOR GOD”S PEOPLE. The three-fold discipline of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving becomes an effective means of placing ourselves in God’s hands. If we are to be a “New Crea- tion,” we must be reformed. Lent’s transformation begins with sinful humanity. Sin corrupts God’s image into an idol. Through our “surrender” to God’s grace, the idol becomes a holy icon and death is “swallowed up in victory.” Death - Page Three First Sunday of Lent February 10, 2008 an end—becomes a beginning! Our “surrender” to God is really our victory. Self-denial is an affirmation of God. Penance returns us to the dust of our beginning. Almsgiving is an expression of compassion for the needy. In this compassion that rescues us from the whirl- pool of desire. It dispels the illusion that we are almighty and self-sufficient. Thus, in the discipline of self-denial pen- ance, and alms, we are most clearly in the light. Finding God in the ashes of humility, our destiny rises out of death as a plant rises out of the soil. We become most truly ourselves in Christ. People of good will always ask: “What should I give up for Lent? They expect to hear a “litany” of derelictions and delec- tations. To abandon minor addictions and over indulgence is laudable. But, in truth, what does God want? God wants us to give up one thing for Lent—ourselves! Turning to God is the beginning. Being like God is the end. Our journey through Lent this week takes us from the Gar- den of Paradise to a barren desert. In both places the devil aims to deceive and destroy God’s image. He succeeds with Adam and Eve. He fails with Jesus. St. Anthony of the Desert tells us: “Whoever has not experienced temptation cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.” It is only there in the battleground of free will that the “divine image” is fired by fires either divine or demonic. St. Seraphim of Sarov, who, like St. Anthony, dwelt in the wilderness and was tempted, had supreme confidence. It was the Holy Spirit and the sign of the Holy Cross that gave him the courage to claim: “The temptations of the devil are like a cobweb. You only need to blow on it, and it will be destroyed. It is the same with our enemy, the devil . You only need to shield yourself with the sign of the Holy Cross, and all his wiles will vanish completely.” Lent has begun. Never forget the end of the “journey” and the path can lead us home. “Remember that you are dust.” But also remember that you are being formed and reformed into God’s image whenever you place yourself in His hands. - Fr.

  • El Rocío: a Case Study of Music and Ritual in Andalucía
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: EL ROCÍO: A CASE STUDY OF MUSIC AND RITUAL IN ANDALUCÍA W. Gerard Poole, Ph.D., 2007 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Carolina Robertson, Department of Ethnomusicology Music is central to the processional pilgrimage of El Rocío, which attracts hundreds of thousands of pilgrims to Andalusia, Spain, late each spring. The pilgrimage affords a unique view, in microcosm, of the relationships between music and ritual from both ritual-studies and ethnomusicological perspectives. Based on extensive fieldwork and other research, this dissertation explores the nexus of the Catholic ritual system in Andalusia, flamenco, and the specific music of El Rocío: the Sevillanas Rocieras. That nexus becomes clear through exploration of three particular features of the pilgrimage: (1) the devotional processions that generate a single, focused, collective emotion; (2) the Andalusian musical form called the palo; and (3) the informal musical gatherings called juergas, which take place nightly along the route. Analysis of structural and morphological relationships between ritual, music, and emotion yields surprising realizations about how these three elements come together as embodied aesthetics within a communitas to generate popular culture. Another important finding of this work is the necessity of placing, at the center of the inquiry, the religious experience—including the curious Andalusian phenomenon of the “chaotic” emotional procession and its role within the overall pilgrimage and ritual system. The dissertation concludes with two theoretical positions. The first addresses the process of “emotional structuring” and its role within the musical rituals of El Rocío and, by extension, Andalusia. The second advances a theory of ritual relations with potential application to ritual systems beyond Andalusia.

  • PAYNEHAM ROAD UNITING CHURCH 12 April 2020 EASTER DAY
    PAYNEHAM ROAD UNITING CHURCH 12 April 2020 EASTER DAY Readings for today—John 20:1-18 It is interesting to notice that each of the Gospels has its unique way of describing the Easter event. Against our common perception that John’s Gospel is marked by poetic and mysterious depictions of Jesus’ life, it is intriguing to notice that John’s version of Easter Sunday is longer than the others, containing detailed descriptions of the event. In today’s reading we can find ourselves in each of the three persons present, and especially in their ways of encountering and responding to the risen Christ. Peter saw the evidence of resurrection but was not sure if he should believe in it. The other disciple, presumably John, saw the empty tomb and believed. Mary’s recognition of the evidence was not strong enough to convince her to believe until she was personally touched by the risen Christ. Her experience of the risen Christ was not contained within herself but was brought to her faith community to share. “Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples: I have seen the Lord” (v.18). However, church history has subjected Mary Magdalene to being marginalized and misunderstood. The church “leaders” evidently found a problem with Magdalene’s centrality in the resurrection story, and even deemed her an unsuitable first witness. From the fringes of faith community, she rushes towards the centre, helping the church rejoice with the good news. The church still needs to be re-evangelized by the Magdalenes among us, the marginalized.

The focus of this study is the culinary culture of barbacoa- makers in the community of Barrio San Mateo, Milpa Alta in Mexico City. Mexican cuisine is analysed at three levels - the social and cuhnary(contexts)of the production and consumption of barbacoa ; the daily life bf women and especially their domestic cooking tasks; and the dynamics of hospitality ,as expressed in the cycle of fiestas. Barbacoa is pit-roast lamb, and the production of it is an important means of livelihood in San Mateo (along with the cultivation of nopales , and other agricultural activities).
