Celebration of the Lord’s Passion Reflection (2020)

Celebration of the Lord’s Passion Reflection (2020)

April 10, 2020 April 12, 2020

We acknowledge Jesus Christ as our great high priest. We get the most detailed discussion of that in the letter to the Hebrews, the second reading on Good Friday. But what do priests do? We can think of priests as religious leaders who teach the congregation, lead worship, lend an ear to people …

Holy Thursday Reflection (2020)

April 9, 2020 April 12, 2020

There are a lot of important and interesting elements to St. John’s Gospel. He gives by far the longest, most detailed description of the Last Supper. Matthew, Mark, and Luke use two or three pages. St. John’s record goes five chapters, starting with chapter 13 and finishing at the end of chapter 17. We …

Christ at Mass Palm Sunday Reflection (2020)

St Damien Parish April 5, 2020 April 3, 2020

The Passion and death of Jesus is so full of many sobering and profound moments, all of which could be meditated and prayed about on many levels.  Many think one of the most poignant moments of the Passion is when Jesus cries out “My God, my God, why have you …

Palm Sunday Mass Reflection (2020)

April 4, 2020 April 3, 2020

On Palm Sunday (like Good Friday) we read the story of the passion and death of Christ.  Passion, or Palm, Sunday is the only Mass we open with a Gospel reading (Matthew 21:1 – 11, Mark 11:1 – 10, John 12:12 – 16).  This highlights Christ entry into Jerusalem and …

Christ at Mass Reflection (March 29th, 2020)

St Damien Parish March 29, 2020 March 27, 2020

As a preview to Easter week and a timely parallel to the COVID-19 events we are currently facing, all of today’s readings tell us of death yielding to a new way of life. In the first reading [EZ 37:12-14], the prophet Ezekiel urges the exiled Israelite people in Babylon to …

Mass Reflection (March 29th, 2020)

March 29, 2020 March 27, 2020

Christ uses parables as an important teaching tool.  We have some difficulty engaging their impact because we have grown up hearing them.  We tend to think of parables as touchy-feely stories of God’s love.  Actually, parables always have an unusual twist.  Christ’s original audience would have been puzzled or disturbed …
