Weekly Notes

The Rosary: The Joyful Mysteries

Many of you have been reminding me that October is the month of the Rosary. The Rosary is a devotion of the Catholic Church that goes back centuries. Many images of the saints hold the ro-sary in icons and statues because it was part of their devotional life as it is for me and for many of you. The Rosary helps us to meditation on what we call the Pascal Mystery, AKA the Life, Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. There are four sets of mysteries on which to meditation. Today I want to focus on the Joyful Mysteries, which look at the early life of Christ. There are five joyful mysteries: the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Nativity, the Presentation and the Finding of Jesus. All of these mysteries find their origin in the first two chapters in Gos-pel of Luke. The Annunciation of Jesus’ conception (Luke 1:26-38), which we celebrate on March 25th, takes place when the Angel Gabriel appears to Mary to tell her she is going to conceive the savior of the world. The Visitation (Luke 1:39-56), which we celebrate May 31st, focuses on the next movement of Jesus in the womb of Mary when she visits her cousin Elizabeth and sings her song called the Magnificat. The Nativity of Jesus (Luke 2:1-20), which we celebrate Christmas Day December 25th, focuses on his birth in Bethlehem and all of the joy that came with that perfect day. The Presentation of Jesus (Luke 2:21-38), which we cele-brate with the Candle mass on February 2nd, focuses on Jesus day of circumcision and the prophecies that came with that day. Fi-nally the Finding of Jesus in the temple(Luke 41-52), which has no specific day of celebration, focuses on Jesus as a 12 year old being left in Jerusalem after the time of the Passover festival. I hope that this October you take some time to pray the Rosary either by your self, with your family, or with some friends. And when you do, pick up a bible and read the readings related to these mysteries so that you might come to dive deeper into the mystery of the Life, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Fr. Jeff

El Rosario: Los Misterios Gozosos Muchos de ustedes me han estado recordando que Octubre es el mes del Rosario. El Rosario es una devoción de la Iglesia Católi-ca que se remonta a siglos. Muchas imágenes de los santos sostienen el rosario en íconos y estatuas porque era parte de su vida devocional como lo es para mí y para muchos de ustedes. El Rosario nos ayuda a meditar sobre lo que llamamos el misterio pascal, también conocido como la vida, muerte y resurrección de Jesucristo. Hay cuatro conjuntos de misterios sobre los cuales meditar. Hoy quiero enfocarme en los Misterios Gozosos, que observan los primeros años de la vida de Cristo. Hay cinco Misterios Gozosos: la Anunciación, la Visitación, la Natividad, la Presentación y el Hallazgo de Jesús. Todos estos misterios tienen su origen en los dos primeros capítulos del Evan-gelio de Lucas. La anunciación de la concepción de Jesús (Lucas 1: 26-38), que celebramos el 25 de marzo, tiene lugar cuando el Angel Gabriel se le aparece a María para decirle que concebirá al salvador del mundo. La Visitación (Lucas 1: 39-56), que celebra-mos el 31 de mayo, se enfoca en el próximo movimiento de Jesús en el vientre de María cuando la visita su prima Isabel y canta su canción llamada Magnificat. La Natividad de Jesús (Lucas 2: 1-20), que celebramos el día de Navidad el 25 de Diciembre, se enfoca en su nacimiento en Belén y en toda la alegría que vino con ese día perfecto. La presentación de Jesús (Lucas 2: 21-38), que celebramos con la misa de la Candelaria el 2 de Febrero, se enfoca en el día de la circuncisión de Jesús y las profecías que vinieron con ese día. Finalmente, el hallazgo de Jesús en el tem-plo (Lucas 41-52), que no tiene un día específico de celebración, se enfoca en Jesús como un niño de 12 años que se quedó en Jeru-salén después de la fiesta de la Pascua. Espero que este mes de Octubre te tomes un tiempo para rezar el Rosario solo, con tu familia o con algunos amigos. Y cuando lo haga, tome una biblia y lea las lecturas relacionadas con estos misterios para que pueda profundizar en el misterio de la Vida, Muerte y Resurrección de Jesucristo.

Padre Jeff

Catholic Nonviolent Action for Immigrant Children October 12 at St. Mary’s Cathedral

Catholic organizations have organized a nonviolent campaign to urge an end to the traumatiz-ing abuse of immigrant children and their families by the US government. A powerful mobili-zation of Catholic faith leaders took place in Washington DC on July 18 with a follow-up action in Newark NJ on Sept. 4 with Cardinal Tobin. The next event is scheduled at the border in El Paso TX with Bishop Seitz on Oct. 12.

Catholics from the Portland Archdiocese will gather on October 12 at 11 am at St. Mary’s Cathedral 1716 NW Davis in Portland. Come pray the rosary with fellow Catholics in solidarity with immigrant children and their families to demand an end to this violation of human dignity and rights.
