St. Margaret Mary Alacoque

Readings:
First Reading: Ephesians 3:14-19
Responsorial: Psalm 22 R/ v.1
Acclamation: Matthew 11:25
Gospel: Matthew 11:25-30

Introduction

St. Margaret M. Alacoque was born at Verosvres, France in 1647 and entered the Order of the Visitation in 1671. Jesus appeared to her in numerous visions, displaying His Sacred Heart, sometimes burning as a furnace, and sometimes torn and bleeding on account of the coldness of the sins of men. In 1675 the great revelation was made to her that she, in union with Father de la Colombiere S.J., was to be the chief instrument for instituting the Feast of the Sacred Heart and for the spreading of the devotion throughout the world. St. Margaret M. Alacoque died on October 17, 1690.

“It is the ingratitude of men which has hurt Me more than all the suffering I underwent during My Passion. If only they would make some return for My love, I should think but little of all I have done for them and would wish, were it possible, to suffer still more. But the sole return they make for all My eagerness to do them good is to reject Me and treat Me with coldness. Do thou at least console Me by supplying for their ingratitude as far as thou art able.”

Contemplation

The contemplation of the benefits of Jesus towards us ought to become the source of our practical devotion to the Sacred Heart. For only love alone can respond to love. In his appearance to St. Margaret, Jesus 'complains' of the lack of love in return for His love: "Behold this heart that has so loved men and which receives from them only ingratitude." Thus, it is clear that it is only by love, by the gift of the heart that we should respond to Christ Jesus. The suggested hymn for the feast of the Sacred Heart rightly expresses this by the following words, "Who will not love in return for the one Who loves him? Who being redeemed will not love His Redeemer?" Today we question our love for Jesus. Do we really love Him? Can we assuredly say that if we were on Calvary 2000 years ago, we would have embraced the cross on which hung our Lord?

“Behold this Heart, Which has loved men so much, that It has spared nothing, even to exhausting and consuming Itself, in order to testify to them Its love; and in return I receive from the greater number nothing but ingratitude by reason of their irreverence and sacrileges, and by the coldness and contempt which they show Me in this Sacrament of Love. But what I feel most keenly is that it is hearts which are consecrated to Me, that treat Me thus...”

Love of God

The love we offer God if to be perfect must bear a double character. A great English abbot once explained that there is "first of all, affective love; it consists in the different feelings which move in the heart towards a person loved." I would believe such feelings to include: admiration, joy, and thanksgiving. The other character, he explained is praise. Such a love as described above gives birth the praise. For we want to praise the works of His hands, the blessings He has bestowed upon us, our loved ones, and for the simple fact that He and only He is God.

“My Divine Heart so ardently loves men that, unable to contain within itself any longer the flames of its burning love, it needs must spread them with your assistance, and thus it will show itself that all men may be enriched with its most precious treasures...”

Our Response

Today, we rejoice in the perfections if the Heart of Jesus, we celebrate it's beauties, and grandeurs, we delight in the magnificence of it's benefits. And in union with St. Peter Julian Eymard, the Eucharistic saint of reparation, we unite ourselves with all the sufferings of Jesus as we draw closer to His Most Sacred Heart. Amen.

Oremus

O Lord Jesus Christ, Who to the blessed virgin Margeret Mary did in a wondorous manner reveal the unsearchable riches of Your Heart: by her merits grant, that loving You after her example in all things and above all things, we may obtain an abode in Your Heart for evermore. Amen. St. Margeret Mary, pray for us.

History and Graces received from Altar Serving

(By Seminarian Matthew of A Catholic Life)

For hundreds of years, the usage of altar servers has brought about countless priestly vocations. In the words of the Archbishop of Westminster, Bernard Cardinal Griffen, "To serve at the altar, as to sing in the choir, is next to the priesthood the highest privilege which a human can enjoy. He represents the faithful and takes a most intimate part in the rich treasures of the church's liturgy and ceremonial. Those sacred ceremonies should be carried out with devotion, dignity and attention to detail."

History:

An altar server is a lay assistant to the priest during the Mass or to other members of the clergy in other religious functions including Benediction and Eucharistic Adoration. An altar server is not to be confused with an acolyte. Before the Second Vatican Council, the acolyte was the highest of the minor orders, having duties including the lighting of the altar-candles, carrying the candles in procession, assisting the subdeacon and deacon, and the ministering of water and wine to the priest at Mass. Acolytes wore either the alb or the surplice over a cassock. The order of acolyte was conferred on a seminarian at a minor ordination. After the reforms of the minor orders in 1972, the acolyte survived but became one of two lay ministries (along with that of lector) instead of an order. Today, Indult Catholic societies such as the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest and the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter are still permitted to ordain seminarians to all the minor orders, including the acolytate. Therefore, the acolyte is not to be confused with the altar server even though the altar server can do the already mentioned duties of the acolyte.

In the post-Vatican II Church, an acolyte has all the responsibilities of an altar server except a few additional ones. The acolyte is also permanent extraordinary minister of Holy Communion and can also be entrusted with celebrating Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament. He is also the only lay minister who can do the purification of the vessels at Mass. Furthermore, an acolyte is given a priority to lead blessing ceremonies (Book of Blessings, Introduction, n. 18). In the absence of both a priest and deacon, the acolyte has priority to lead Sunday Celebrations (Directions for Sunday Celebrations in the Absence of a Priest, 1988, n. 30).

Traditionally, the role of altar server has always been reserved to males and rightfully so. By having males serve at the altar, a young man is better able to discern the priesthood since he is involved with the Liturgy. Personally, I support the return of an all-male group of altar servers for the entire Catholic Church. Some parishes are even returning to the practice of all-male altar servers. Historically, the role of altar server has always been reserved to males. In the Encyclical Allatae Sunt on July, 26, 1755, Pope Benedict XIV stated in paragraph 29:

Pope Gelasius in his ninth letter (chap. 26) to the bishops of Lucania condemned
the evil practice which had been introduced of women serving the priest at the
celebration of Mass. Since this abuse had spread to the Greeks, Innocent IV
strictly forbade it in his letter to the bishop of Tusculum: "Women should not
dare to serve at the altar; they should be altogether refused this ministry." We
too have forbidden this practice in the same words in Our oft-repeated
constitution Etsi Pastoralis, sect. 6, no. 21."
In 1970 the Vatican condemned female altar serving in Liturgicae instaurationes as well as in 1980's Inaestimabile donum. Not until a circular letter from the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments to presidents of episcopal conferences on March 15, 1994, did the Vatican officially allow female altar serving.

Graces:

To serve at the altar as an altar server is one of the greatest sources of graces. The altar server assists the priest at the Sacred Liturgy; he is privileged to walk into the sanctuary. Remember, the Mass is the Sacrifice of Calvary. It is not a memorial but rather the Mass truly is the Sacrifice of Calvary. For that reason, all altar servers must display the utmost respect and reverence. For example, each and every single time that the server walks past the Tabernacle, he is to genuflect on his right knee to our Lord who is truly present in the Eucharist.

All altar servers must listen attentively during the Mass and should remain in a state of prayer with their hands in a prayer position. Talking amongst each other is absolutely forbidden. Likewise, all altar servers should wear proper shoes and never flip-flops, sandals, boots, or gym shoes. An altar servers must also learn the proper name to all of the items used during the Liturgy. Such items are listed at the bottom of the webpage of the Altar Server Manual. Altar Servers must ensure that no particle of Our Lord's Body or Blood falls to the ground. With the use of the paten, altar servers perform an extremely important sacred ministry. They must ensure that no particle of the Eucharist is desecrated accidentally at any portion during the Mass. Furthermore, altar servers must know the basic prayers of the Mass at least in the vernacular and perhaps some of them in Latin. The altar server must have a basic understanding of the Catholic Faith and understand the Sacraments, especially the Eucharist.

To all altar servers, please take these suggestions to heart. I strongly suggest you read the words expressed on the article Advice for Altar Servers. Remember, as an altar server, you stand next to the priest who stands at the Cross of Calvary. At the Consecration, you stand near the altar on which the Bread and Wine become Jesus Christ. You should humble yourself and bow your head before the power of God. You are assisting at the Holy of Holies. Display reverence and worship Our God. Undoubtedly, altar servers receive countless blessings from Almighty God from serving devoutly at Mass. Even attending Holy Mass is the source of numerous graces. It is certainly more grace-filled for altar servers.

Prayer before Serving:

Heavenly Father, we ask your blessing upon us, that we may serve at your altar with reverence, attention, and love, in order to draw others to do the same. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Another example of the sea of change

(via Hypersync)

"Father Bob Griffith, the Episcopal blogger of hypersync, comments on a phenomenon we have noticed, too, in Roman Catholicism: the younger generations are interested in the old liturgical forms and the old liturgical music that prevailed before the unfortunate experiments of recent decades." Rev. Fr. Jim Tucker. "Give Me That Old-Time Religion!"

I've been saying for the last 10 years or so that there is a generational sea change being realized in North America, particularly in the U.S. To be honest, I'm less familiar with what is going on in Canada, but I suspect something similar.

I've said over and over again that the tail end of Generation X, Gen Y, and whatever is next, are of a different temperament when it comes to what resonates with them within the whole Christian melee and spirituality more generally. The Social Gospel of liberal, mainline Protestantism is dead (not to suggest working with the poor is dead, however!), the Baby-Boomer Seeker church experience has run its course, the liberal "god is dead" or perhaps "Process" theological perspectives have shown themselves to be not very satisfying to most people. The younger generations, so demographers and generationalists suggest, seek after something more solid and ancient (read, not trendy), something that restores a sense of mystery, and something that is respectful and none-condescending - unlike much of what passes for "modern" church.

I've said before that I hear more and more from younger people that they prefer the language of Rite I (Elizabethan English), they like the more formal liturgies, that they find resonances with contemplative and monastic-like spiritual experiences.

Now, I know that what I hear does not represent all young people and there are those who want absolutely nothing to do with High Church liturgy, old sounding English, or contemplative quiet. That's fine and good, but on the whole, there is a difference between our parents’ generation and the younger generations. I find that older people in the Church (the 1928 Prayer Book generation) and the young seem to have much more in common then the big group in the middle that now controls the Church. Funny, how that works. But, it is a good thing that within The Episcopal Church, and Anglicanism at least as it has been traditionally practiced, there is an allowance for the flourishing of different forms to meet the differing needs of various peoples.

I've also found that young people tend to want to be challenged to think and seek, but not told what to think or do by "authorities." They respect the authorities generally, but want them to help them seek and find rather than to indoctrinate them. No easy believe-ism for these folks!

Groups that do challenge, that take seriously the young people's wants and desires and NEEDS, that provide a way to the faith that shows seriousness and respect, are growing. Those that pander to political and social whims are not. I believe we will shortly witness a migration out of the neo-conservative political and social "Culture War" churches.

So, I found it interesting today when I took two young seminarians to lunch. One is 23 (or 22, I don't remember) and will probably be our seminarian this fall. The other is a young married guy. A lot of our conversation revolved around the Church, the young, what is happening, and what the future may hold. I listened, mostly (at least I think I listened, mostly).

These are smart guys. They go to General. They talked about their class and the attitudes and desires of their classmates. They even talked about an obvious difference between themselves and the "1960's hold-overs" that reign right now in the Church. "If the church can survive past the baby-boomer generation, there might be hope," from a rector friend of theirs who is a baby-boomer but recognizes both the good his generation has enabled and the baby they threw out with the bathwater.

I look at what is happening among the Emergent Church crowd (See the Episcopal/Lutheran Church of the Apostles in Seattle, Washington). Anyone who does not recognize the sea change either doesn't want to acknowledge what is happening or is truly blind. Again, not all are going to like High Church liturgy, etc., but there is a fundamental change nevertheless.

These two guys said there is even a semi-secret group at General that is regularly saying the Rosary. The Oxford Tradition of General is not dead, despite the 1960's "reformers" who want it to be so. How frustrating it must been for these folks whose life work has been to remake the Church into something else (what, I don't know), only to see young people raising the hands in front of them saying, "NO!" The "reformers" are now "The Man," and they are experiencing the rebellion of the youngsters and they don't know what to do with it (after all, aren't they the ones who are supposed to cast down tradition and authority and institutions?). Their work for naught, perhaps. Who knows...

One guy talked about his wife at Yale. An Episcopal Church in Newhaven has a regular chanted, candlelit Compline and the sanctuary is packed with young people. The rector doesn't know what to do - totally surprised by the result. I'm not.

Today, in the New York Times, an article entitled "Monks Who Play Punk," about a relatively new Roman Catholic monastic order in the Bronx.

"Upstairs, a 100 or more young people lingered in the quiet, candle-lighted sanctuary after an hour of prayer and song in front of the Eucharist. Brother Columba Jordan strummed his guitar and sang in a soft voice.... Two friars with heads bowed sat on either side of the alter, listening to the confessions of men and women waiting patiently in line."

This is New York City, folks. I see this kind of thing all over the place! And, then, there is also Revolution Church, which gets at the same thing in a very different way.

"The monthly holy hour of prayer and song and ensuing music festival are part of an event called Catholic Underground..." [By the way, some of the monks have a Funk and Punk band, complete with long beards and gray, hooded habits.] "...the creation of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, a religious order founded two decades ago this year in the Melrose section of the Bronx. Members own no personal possessions and beg even for their food. Nevertheless, the order's 10 friars are bursting with new recruits at a moment when many Roman Catholic religious orders are struggling simply to maintain their current numbers."

"Yet despite the simplicity of the order's lifestyle, the Fr4iars of the Renewal see their message as one othat has a powerful appeal to young people in the 21st century.

'We don't advertise, we don't promise you glow-in-the-dark Frisbees, none of that," said the Rev. Bernard Murphy, the order's head. 'Young people are idealistic, and so we live in a community that lives a high ideal.'"

"'The millennial generation is a spiritual generation,' said Brother Paul Bednarczyk, of the vocation conference. 'I think they are searching for meaning in their life, and I think they are looking to do something that is going to have an impact on the world.'"

In the article, as it ends, the are a couple comments made by people who the order ministers to. We read comments like, "When you're running on an empty tank, they're pretty much there to fill up the tank;" or this from a women who lost hear let when she had an encounter with a fire truck, "Ever since I starting coming here, I feel better about myself. I want to live again. Everything I eat here is spiritual."

Interesting, ah?

I'm afraid a good many people in The Episcopal Church (and within many churches!) still don't get it. Not only do they not get it, they actively try to keep their heads in the sand. As a seminary friend of mine used to say, "I can't wait until this generation of leaders in the Church retires. Then maybe we can get back to being the Church." I understand the point and count-point between all generations. There is always idealism among the young and a reaction to their parent's generation. This is nothing new. Yet, I still say there is as much of a profound change in this generation and the Boomers as we saw between the War II generation and the Boomers. We shall see what happens.

NEW TRANSLATION: The Order of Holy Mass

The Institution of the Eucharist by JOOS van Wassenhove

Rev. Fr. Tim Finigan of the Archdiocese of Southwark has the PDF version of the New Translation of the Order of Mass- translated by the International Committee on English in the Liturgy (ICEL)- on his website.

Click here to view and download the New Translation.

I think the new translation possesses more quality and charm of poetry.

What is the ICEL?

The International Commission on English in the Liturgy (ICEL) is a mixed commission of Catholic Bishops' Conferences in countries where English is used in the celebration of the Sacred Liturgy according to the Roman Rite. The purpose of the Commission is to prepare English translations of each of the Latin liturgical books and any individual liturgical texts in accord with the directives of the Holy See. [SOURCE: ICEL]

Apologia Against Those Who Decry Holy Images

(By St. John of Damascus, via Medieval Sourcebook; thanks to Karen)

St. John the Climacus, St. John of Damascus, St. Arsenius

An Excerpt:

We proclaim Him also by our senses on all sides, and we sanctify the noblest sense, which is that of sight. The image is a memorial, just what words are to a listening ear. What a book is to the literate, that an image is to the illiterate. The image speaks to the sight as words to the ear; it brings us understanding. Hence God ordered the ark to be made of imperishable wood, and to be gilded outside and in, and the tablets to be put in it, and the staff and the golden urn containing the manna, for a remembrance of the past and a type of the future. Who can say these were not images and far-sounding heralds? And they did not hang on the walls of the tabernacle; but in sight of all the people who looked towards them, they were brought forward for the worship and adoration of God, who made use of them. It is evident that they were not worshipped for themselves, but that the people were led through them to remember past signs, and to worship the God of wonders. They were images to serve as recollections, not divine, but leading to divine things by divine power.

Read the full Apologia.

The Seven Holy Founders of The Servite Order

Today the 1962 Roman Missal celebrates the III Class feast of The Seven Holy Founders of The Servite Order.

Seven noble Florentines founded in 1233 the Order of the Servites of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The Servites led an austere life, meditating constantly on the Passion of our Lord and venerating the Blessed Virgin Mary as Our Lady of Sorrows.

Protestant Doctrine

(via Memoirs of a Neophyte)

The entire Protestant theological system rests on one single doctrine: Sola Scriptura. The other core Protestant doctrine, Sola Fide, is somewhat derived from Sola Scriptura, so demonstrating how Sola Scriptura is self-contradictory discredits Sola Fide as a Biblical doctrine.

Sola Scriptura, which is Latin literally meaning "Scripture Alone", hinges mainly on denying two things: history, and logic.

Atheist or Believer?

Andrew has wrtiten a good response to infant baptism here.

"Infant baptism or not?" This has been the issue in my family for 2 generations. My grandmother decided against infant Baptism, so my father and his sisters (my aunts) were never baptised as infants. However, being half Filipino, Catholicism was always somewhere in the picture, my father went to a Catholic school and I remember my grandmother trying to admit my aunt(s?) into the CHIJ, Town Convent. Having grown up beside St. Joseph's Church in Bukit Timah, I remember how I was taught to pray to St. Joseph by placing my hands on his feet. I also learnt how to make the sign of the cross and say grace before meals. During Lent, I remember walking the life-sized Stations of the Cross. I also recall watching 'Jesus of Nazareth' on Good Fridays; my father would screen them.

Having said this, I must mention, that I too didn't receive the Sacrament of Baptism as an infant.

When I was 13 wanted badly to be in 'Full Communion' with the Church (not that I ever felt less a Catholic... Ok, so I did... I wanted the receive the Eucharist). At that time, my uncle and his family were journeying through RCIA, I wanted to join him. I father decided against it. I was so angry that when he did change his mind, I didn't want to attend it out of defiance. A year later, at 14, I consulted my Parish Chuch, to see if I could join RCIA. I was told that I was too young and I needed Parental approval; I didn't want to approach my father after the first incident. Another year went by.

Still deep longing for the Sacrament of Baptism, I decided to attend the Anglican Parish of The True Light. I knew that they'd give the Sacrament to anyone who expressed interest, regardless of age. True enough I was Baptised and annointed that very year at the age of 15 by Rt. Rev. Bishop Moses Tay, in the old Catholic rite of Baptism. When I turned 16, I sought Rev. Fr. Edmund Chong, who was the assistant Parish Priest of St. Joseph's. I did an 'express' RCIA and was finally admitted into the bossoms of Holy Mother Church at Easter.

It was a long journey but it sure was worth it. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise... my journey alone only served to strenghten my conviction that the Holy Roman Catholic Church is the One, True, Apostolic Chruch founded by Jesus Christ.

My year with the Anglicans also enabled understand that the present disarray of Anglicanism is, in itself, clear evidence of the need for a defined focus of authority in the life of the Church on earth, and that such a magisterium is to be found in the person of Peter and his successors in the Holy See; The Pope. (See Can the 39 Articles Function as a Confessional Standard for Anglicans Today?)

Now, I aspiring to the Sacrament of Holy Orders. Do pray for me.
