Transcript of Saint Joseph Catholic Church This weekend marks …...2019/05/05 · Dear Parishioners, This...
Dear Parishioners,
This weekend marks either the Third Sunday AFTER
Easter or the Fourth Sunday OF Easter. Ah, well, you
say tomAto, I say tomAHto. No matter what, the Easter season goes
on, as do all major seasons in the liturgical year, for 40 days.
This weekend brings us closer to a few more major feasts in the
liturgical calendar. The first major feast will be the Ascension of Our
Lord into Heaven. That would be Ascension THURSDAY and no
other day. True, these days, it’s often celebrated on the following
Sunday, but that is not something set in stone, even in the new
calendar. That is followed by Pentecost Sunday, 10 days later. Then
comes Trinity Sunday, which is followed by Corpus Christi. That
particular feast also falls on a Thursday, the Thursday after Trinity.
But again, it is often the case that it is celebrated liturgically on the
following Sunday. In the new calendar, it MUST be celebrated that
day. In the old calendar, it MAY be celebrated that day, but, then, as
an External Solemnity. That means that, in the old calendar, Corpus
Christi is, indeed celebrated on the Thursday following Trinity
Sunday, but can also be celebrated again on the following Sunday.
That is our tradition here. And we do a wonderfully solemn job of it.
First Communicants are in the front of the procession followed by
Our Lord in the monstrance.
Well, I’m getting ahead of myself. This third/fourth Sunday, and all
post-Easter Sundays, features the Gospel of John. The first readings
in the OF for the Sundays after Easter come from the Acts of the
Apostles. In the EF, Acts plays a prominent role only during the
Easter Octave, and yet, not for the complete octave.
I personally love the Acts of the Apostles. If one ever wants to get a
good look t the life of the very early Church, Acts is the place to go.
What a journey; to start with Acts and then proceed into the
fascinating accounts of the Church Fathers. What a fascinating
Church we have, my children and my friends.
