LIFE FROM DEATH Lent is about Easter, and Easter is about life after death. As we draw closer to Easter, the Sunday read-ings become more and more explicit about this. In a rather dry, matter-of-fact way, today’s read-ing from St. Paul’s Letter to the Romans teaches that our “mortal bodies” will be raised to life. But in a far more gripping way, the Lord shouts at us through the prophet Ezekiel, “O my people, I will open your graves . . . I will put my spirit in you . . . I have prom-ised, and I will do it.” When Jesus saw the people weeping over the death of Lazarus, he was troubled in spirit and moved by the deepest emotions. Approach-ing the tomb, Jesus himself began to weep. He loved Lazarus. In fact, Jesus loved Lazarus so much that he snatched him out of his tomb, back to life. That’s how God loves us. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co. TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION There is a geography to the liturgy of baptism that distills the journey of faith. Each part of the litur-gy is assigned to a distinct part of the church build-ing. Baptism, whether of infants carried to church by their parents or of adults following the paschal candle into a darkened church at Easter, starts at the door. First, a threshold must be crossed and a new commu-nity of meaning and memory encountered for the first time. Then, the celebration moves to the place for God’s Word. Next, as the litany of the saints is sung, there is a procession to the font. Finally, the move-ment is to the table, the altar of the Eucharist. There, newly baptized adults are brought to the sacred meal, or the parents of infants are blessed and reminded that their child will one day share fully in the table’s ban-quet. Many Catholic churches honor this geography by placing the font near the door, or at least small ves-sels with water. The doorway of our church is a place of memory, and a passageway to a new way of living. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
