MISSION STATEMENT: As part of the living Body of Christ, Saint Cecilia parish on Bainbridge Island seeks to conform to the will of God through faith, works, teaching and stewardship of God’s creation as guided by the Holy Spirit, by the teachings of Christ, and the Grace of the Father. We celebrate this mission daily in prayer, liturgy, sacraments and life.
Dear Parishioners, Last week I spoke of the value of order and consistency in the
Eucharist. Our worship is not something we create or own, but a
divine action which the Church stewards. The order and
consistency found in liturgical texts and instructions facilitate the
“fully conscious and active participation in liturgical celebrations”
of all the faithful who gather. To participate fully, it helps to know
what one is expected to say and do.
The concept of full and active participation of all the faithful in
the Mass is at the heart of the reform of the liturgy introduced by
the Second Vatican Council. The council documents on the Sacred
Liturgy state: “In the restoration and promotion of the sacred
liturgy, this full and active participation by all the people is the aim
to be considered before all else…” For those who remember the
Mass before the reforms, the primary active participants were the
celebrant, altar server and choir. The reforms called for all to
participate aloud in prayer, song, posture and gesture. The reforms
also expanded the opportunities for the laity to be involved in
special liturgical ministries.
This full and active participation requires preparation. While
we recognize the importance of the preparation of readers and
musicians and celebrant, we sometimes forget the equal
preparation of all who gather. The Council liturgy document
addressed the disposition of the faithful that precedes this
participation. “But in order that the liturgy may be able to produce
its full effects, it is necessary that the faithful come to it with
proper dispositions, that their minds should be attuned to their
voices, and that they should cooperate with divine grace lest they
receive it in vain.” The importance of what happens before the
Mass as the faithful gather is behind the instruction provided in the
Missal: “Even before the celebration itself, it is a praiseworthy
practice for silence to be observed in the church…so that all may
dispose themselves to carry out the sacred celebration in a devout
and fitting manner.”
Next week, what do we do with the silence?
Yours in Christ,

Bergoglio’s List by Nello
Scavo tells how a young
Francis defied a dictatorship
and saved dozens of lives in
1976 when the Argentine

murdered. These accounts share Frances’ courage &
heroism in the face of unspeakable evil.

MINISTRY SPOTLIGHT
CURSILLO: “The Cursillo
Movement is both a
movement and a
method”…the purpose of
which is “to create small
groups of Christians that will
evangelize their
environments with the
gospel spirit” and to “help
persons live what is fundamental for being a Christian
by committing themselves…to grow in holiness,
formation and evangelization.” (The Pilgrim’s Guide).
Cursillo includes a weekend experience, which is a
focused series of exercises in specific areas about how
Christians live their faith. Following the weekend, a
Group Reunion of three to six friends meet each week
to share their enthusiastic faith in Jesus Christ.
Parishioners from Saint Cecilia’s who are active in
Cursillo shared their experiences:
Bob Earhart: “Made in [The Trinity’s] image, we were
meant for relationships, not solitude. The ongoing
relationships of Cursillo have brought us together in
Christ’s fold; there we find peace, security and joy with
our fellows. There we share our breakfast and our
lives, and make plans to bring Christ’s presence to the
other sheep in His name.”
Bob Kuebler: “We are all on this faith journey together,
and support one another in all areas of our lives. We
are able to discern the will of God more clearly as we
pray together. In this way we develop a closer
relationship to Jesus and one another and increase our
desire to bring Him to others through our actions.”
Len Beil: “I made my three-day Cursillo retreat in 1980
and it remains one of the highlight experiences of my
life! I have been meeting weekly with wonderful men
who have also made a Cursillo retreat for the past 35
years! The retreat and friends I made are very special
to me!”
To find out more about Cursillo, or to participate,
please contact Dick Abrams at (206) 842-5105.
