10th & 11th October 2020 (Year A)

Twenty Eight Sunday in Ordinary Time

Served by the Discalced Carmelite Friars

St TERESA OF AVILA

Doctor of the Church

50th Year of Declaration

(27 September 1970)

28th Sunday of the year

St Teresa of Avila

Let nothing disturb you!

Let nothing disturb you;

Let nothing frighten you.

All things are passing.

God never changes.

Patience obtains all things.

Nothing is wanting to him who possesses God.

God alone suffices.

This brief poem-prayer commonly known today as the Bookmark of St.

Teresa or St. Teresa’s Bookmark, was found on a prayer card in her breviary

(Liturgy of the Hours or Divine Office book). It is a beautiful meditation on

trust in God. With God, we can have true peace in the midst of a storm, no

matter how violent.

We are celebrating the solemnity of St. Teresa of Avila on the 15th of October.

She is the Reformist of our Carmelite Order and we call her as our Mother

and St. John of the Cross as our spiritual Father. On 27th September 1970,

Pope Paul VI declared her as the First Woman Doctor of the Church, and this

year is the 50th year of that golden declaration. Her four major works are:

Life, Interior Castle, Way of Perfection and Foundations. She said once: “The

closer one approaches to God, the simpler one becomes.” Yes, let us be very

simple people like St. Teresa of Avila.

Wanted Women Altar Ministers

Due to the shortage of Acolytes in our parish, we are planning to promote 10

Women Altar Ministers who would be doing the work of Acolytes. They will

not be called Acolytes but “Altar Ministers”. Our Bishop has given consent

to this plan, and we invite all those who wish to become an Altar Minister.

Kindly give your names to the Parish Office for training and commissioning.

Latin Mass in our Parish

Another good news we wanted to share this week is that very soon we are

going to have a Latin Sung Mass. This Mass will be celebrated once a month

in our parish—on the first Friday at 5pm to start on 4th December 2020. Our

Deacon Michael Philips and Bernadette Scharf would organize a special

choir. We need volunteers for singing and recitation of Latin prayers.

The old is Gold!

Presentation of the Child in the Church

Jesus was presented in the Temple before his Baptism. It is also good that

we introduce the custom of welcoming and introducing the new born baby

together with the parents into the church in one of the weekend Masses

prior to the Baptism date. The congregation can pray and welcome the

baby. It is being practised in some churches in our diocese.

Happy Feast of St. Teresa of Avila

First Reading

A reading from the prophet Isaiah 25:6–10

On this mountain, the Lord of hosts will prepare for all peoples

a banquet of rich food, a banquet of fine wines,

of food rich and juicy, of fine strained wines.

On this mountain he will remove the mourning veil covering all peoples,

and the shroud enwrapping all nations, he will destroy Death for ever.

The Lord will wipe away the tears from every cheek;

he will take away his people’s shame everywhere on earth,

for the Lord has said so. That day, it will be said: See, this is our God

in whom we hoped for salvation; the Lord is the one in whom we hoped.

We exult and we rejoice that he has saved us;

for the hand of the Lord rests on this mountain.

The word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

RESPONSORIAL PSALM

R. I shall live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life. The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want. Fresh and green are the pastures where he gives me repose. Near restful waters he leads me, to revive my drooping spirit. R.

He guides me along the right path; he is true to his name, If I should walk in the valley of darkness no evil would I fear. You are there with your crook and your staff; with these you give me comfort. R.

You have prepared a banquet for me in the sight of my foes. My head you have anointed with oil; my cup is overflowing. R.

Surely goodness and kindness shall follow me all the days of my life. In the Lord’s own house shall I dwell for ever and ever. R.

SECOND Reading

A reading from the letter of St Paul to the Philippians 4:12–14, 19–20

I know how to be poor and I know how to be rich too. I have been through my

initiation and now I am ready for anything anywhere; full stomach or empty

stomach, poverty or plenty. There is nothing I cannot master with the help of the One

who gives me strength. All the same, it was good of you to share with me in my

hardships. In return my God will fulfil all your needs, in Christ Jesus, as lavishly as

only God can. Glory to God, our Father, for ever and ever. Amen.

The word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. Gospel acclamation

Alleluia, alleluia! May the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ

enlighten the eyes of our heart, that we might see how great is the hope

to which we are called. Alleluia!

GOSPEL

A reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew 22:1–14

Jesus said to the chief priests and elders of the people: ‘The kingdom of heaven may

be compared to a king who gave a feast for his son’s wedding. He sent his servants

to call those who had been invited, but they would not come. Next he sent some

more servants. “Tell those who have been invited,” he said, “that I have my banquet

all prepared, my oxen and fattened cattle have been slaughtered, everything is ready.

Come to the wedding.” But they were not interested: one went off to his farm,

another to his business, and the rest seized his servants, maltreated them and killed

them. The king was furious. He dispatched his troops, destroyed those murderers and

burnt their town. Then he said to his servants, “The wedding is ready; but as those

who were invited proved to be unworthy, go to the crossroads in the town and invite

everyone you can find to the wedding.” So these servants went out on to the roads

and collected together everyone they could

find, bad and good alike; and the wedding

hall was filled with guests.

The Gospel of the Lord Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ.

Fratelli Tutti – A new Encyclical by Pope Francis

Pope Francis has delivered a message to the world’s 1.2 billion Catholics and people of goodwill everywhere which aims to soothe the fear caused by the coronavirus pandemic and unite communities riven by racism, inequality and climate change. Fratelli Tutti (All Brothers) was signed on October 3 in Assisi, central Italy. It is the third encyclical since Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio took the name Francis on his election to the papacy in March 2013. He has always wanted to make it clear that his papacy is one of action – placing the needs of the poor, marginalised and disenfranchised at the centre of his ministry.

As a community of believers, Catholics are expected by Pope Francis to mobilise and become agents for change in the world. This action was to be based upon the canon of Catholic social teaching that had built up since the late 19th century and was, until recently, known as the church’s “best kept secret”.

Francis was going to make sure that Catholics put that teaching into action by providing a road map for change – and, in doing so, invited all people of goodwill to join him. While Laudato Si’ (Praise to You, 2015) implored the world to “care for its common home”, Fratelli Tutti offers teaching devoted to the concepts of fraternity and social friendship based upon the example of St Francis of Assisi who “wherever he went … sowed the seeds of peace and walked alongside the poor, the abandoned, the infirm and the outcast, the least of his brothers and sisters”.

COVID encyclical It is inevitable that this encyclical will be known as the COVID-19 encyclical – and Francis himself acknowledges in paragraph 7 that this 45,000 word tome was written during the first wave of the pandemic. But he sees the questions regarding the purpose and meaning of life that many asked during the lockdowns as an opportunity to reset a pattern of catastrophic systemic failures that has created an unequal and polarised world. As he states in paragraph 33: the pain, uncertainty and fear, and the realisation of our own limitations, brought on by the pandemic have only made it all the more urgent that we rethink our styles of life, our relationships, the organisation of our societies, and, above all, the meaning of our existence.

The pandemic has taught people and society that “no one is saved alone; we can only be saved together”. The coronavirus has presented the world with an opportunity for real systemic change – Francis suggests that to believe we can carry on as before is “denying reality”.

Through Fratelli Tutti, Francis offers a new vision of society in which human dignity and the human rights of all are respected. He believes that actions based on the common good – the concept that everyone should be able to contribute meaningfully to society – must form the bedrock of politics and that people must acknowledge and respect everyone as their equal. Further that social and economic policy must be based on long-term planning rather than short-term populist soundbites.

Francis addresses this invitation to all people of goodwill – not just Catholics. But he takes pains to point out such a transformation will not be easy. Rather, it will be a process without an endpoint, something to be continually worked at, an action rather than a goal. Fratelli Tutti is an encyclical which above all teaches that complacency is the enemy of a peaceful and just society.

Dark clouds But in order to engage in action, the problem must be diagnosed so that people know where to direct their energies. There can be no doubt from the first chapter, “Dark clouds over a closed world”, that Francis understands the complexity of the crisis facing the world. As well as the existential crisis that has led to the disintegration of communities and social relationships, he paints a grim picture of a world undergoing what he calls a “third world war fought piecemeal” which – along with hunger and human trafficking – presents a sustained attack on the dignity of the human person.

He also understands the need for nuance and contextualisation in creating a new vision for humanity. So for example, there are oblique references to Brexit, the populist politics that have led to “hyperbole, extremism and polarisation becoming political tools”. He also observes the resurgence of racism, and the disintegration of intergenerational relationships - all of which demonstrate the innate individualism, lack of empathy and aggressive nationalism which lies at the heart of the global crisis.

Decisive commitment The solution to this crisis “demands a decisive commitment” from individuals and from politicians and religious leaders in particular. Politicians need to reorientate their mindset away from individualism towards a commitment to the common good and what the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace has termed “social love”. This is, he notes, “a force capable of inspiring new ways of approaching the problems of today’s world, of profoundly renewing structures, social organisations and legal systems from within”. Politics needs to become a vocation of service, charity and generosity rather than a means to exercise power. Religious leaders need to engage in dialogue with one another in order to “reawaken the spiritual energy that can contribute to the betterment of society”, and to prevent the distortion of religious beliefs that lead to violence. Ultimately, this is an encyclical which teaches that we are dependent upon one another to thrive and reach our full potential as human beings. As Francis puts it “if only we might rediscover once and for all that we need one another, and that in this way our human family can experience a rebirth; with all its faces, all its hands and all its voices, beyond the walls we have erected.” The Diocesan Pastoral Office will shortly make resources and seminars available to promote understanding and implementation of the encyclical in our Diocese. For those wishing to access the encyclical please go to… www.vatican.va

Fraternity and social friendship are the ways the Pontiff indicates to build a better, more just

and peaceful world, with the contribution of all: people and institutions.

With an emphatic confirmation of a ‘no’ to war and to globalized indifference. …

By Fr Anson Antony OCD

St. John XXIII – October 11 Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli was born in November 25, 1881 in Bergamo, a small town in Northern Italy. The local priest, Father Francesco Rebuzzini, guided and tutored young Angelo. Angelo was ordained a priest in 1904. More than 50 years later, when he became pope, he took the name John, his father’s name. During World War I, the young priest served as a medic and a chaplain. During World War II, as a papal diplomat in Turkey and Greece, he used his office to help thousands of refugees in Europe. He was elected pope in 1958. He was known for his warmth and humour, and he visited children in hospitals and prison inmates at Christmastime. Pope John XXIII is most remembered for calling the Second Vatican Council in 1962. He died on June 3, 1963, at the age of 81.

St. Teresa of Avila- October 15 St. Teresa of Avila is a Spanish mystic, writer and reformer of the Carmelite Order. Her life of prayer enriched the Church during the 16th century counter-reformation. Teresa Sanchez Cepeda Davila y Ahumada was born in the Castilian city of Avila during the year 1515, the third child in a family descended from Jewish merchants who had converted to Christianity during the reign of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella. Her parents were Don Alonso Sanchez de Cepeda and Doña Beatriz. She grew up reading the lives of the saints, and playing at “hermit” in the garden. Crippled by disease in her youth, which led to her being well educated at home, she was cured after prayer to Saint Joseph. Her mother died when Teresa was in her teens and she prayed to Our Lady to be her replacement. Even though her father opposed her entry to religious life, she left home without telling anyone, and entered a Carmelite house at 17. Seeing her conviction to her call, her father and family consented.

Teresa became a professed member of the order at age 20, but soon developed a serious illness that forced her to return home. She experienced severe pain and physical paralysis for two years, and was expected to die when she went into a coma for four days. But she insisted on returning to the Carmelite monastery as soon as she was able, even though she remained in a painful and debilitated state. For the next three years the young nun made remarkable progress in her spiritual life, developing the practice of recalling herself into the presence of God through quiet contemplation. As her health returned, however, Teresa lapsed into a more routine prayer life. When she was nearly 40, however, Teresa found herself dramatically called back to the practice of contemplative mental prayer. She experienced profound changes within her own soul, and remarkable visions that seemed to come from God. Under the direction of her confessors, Teresa wrote about some of these experiences in an autobiography that she completed in 1565.

This revolution in her spiritual life enabled Teresa to play a significant role in the renewal of the Church that followed the Council of Trent. She along with St. John of the Cross proposed a return of the Carmelites to their original rule of life, a simple and austere form of monasticism founded on silence and solitude. The reformed Carmelites were called the Discalced Carmelites. The Discalced Carmelites were to be utterly poor, to fast, to mortify, and to pray intensely. But Teresa also wanted no gloomy saints. She practiced, and expected her nuns to emulate, being ever more sociable as she progressed in holiness.

Teresa spent her last twenty years founding new convents as she travelled throughout Spain, all the while living in the most primitive conditions. Teresa’s health failed her for the last time while she was traveling through Salamanca in 1582. She accepted her dramatic final illness as God's chosen means of calling her into his presence forever. St. Teresa of Avila died on in October, 1582. She was canonized on March 22, 1622.In 1970, Pope St. Paul VI proclaimed St. Teresa as one of the first two woman Doctors of the Church, along with 14th century Dominican St. Catherine of Siena.

Her famous writings are the autobiography The Life of Teresa of Jesus, The Way of Perfection, The Interior Castle, Foundations etc.

St. Ignatius of Antioch- October 17 Born in Syria, Ignatius was converted to Christianity and eventually became bishop of Antioch. In the year 107, Emperor Trajan visited Antioch and forced the Christians there to choose between death and apostasy. Ignatius would not deny Christ and thus was condemned to be put to death in Rome. Ignatius is well known for the seven letters he wrote on the long journey from Antioch to Rome. Five of these letters are to churches in Asia Minor. They urge the Christians there to remain faithful to God and to obey their superiors. He warns them against heretical doctrines, providing them with the solid truths of the Christian faith. The sixth letter was to Polycarp, bishop of Smyrna, who was later martyred for the faith. The final letter begs the Christians in Rome not to try to stop his martyrdom.

St. Luke- October 18 Luke is considered to be the author of the third Gospel and the Acts of

the Apostles. He is the only Gentile Christian among the Gospel

writers. Tradition holds him to be a native of Antioch, and Paul calls

him “our beloved physician.” Luke appears in Acts during Paul’s

second journey, remains at Philippi for several years until Paul returns

from his third journey, accompanies Paul to Jerusalem, and remains near him when he is

imprisoned in Caesarea. During these two years, Luke had time to seek information and

interview persons who had known Jesus. He accompanied Paul on the dangerous journey

to Rome where he was a faithful companion.
