Today, we celebrate the feast of the Assump on of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In this feast, we recognize the Church teaching that a er her earthly life was over, Mary was assumed, body and soul, into heaven by virtue of her sinless nature. In September and October of 2020, I wrote a 5-part series on the Marian dogmas and doctrines taught by the Magisterium, with the Assump on published on September 27, 2020. If you were away from the parish at that me, or would like to refresh your memory, I invite you to visit our parish website to find and read it.

While the doctrine of the Assump on is not explicit in scripture, there are several places in scripture where it is prefigured and foreshadowed. We’ll begin with the Old Testament. We, as Catholics, do not view the Old and New Testaments as two separate volumes that have no rela on to one another. Rather, they are a cohesive unit in which the Old prefigures the New and the New fulfills the Old. There are two instances in the Old Testament where God elected to make an exception for two men, regarding physical death, and took them – body and soul – straight to heaven because of their holiness.

The first man to receive this blessed gi was Enoch. Genesis 5:24 says, “Enoch walked with God, and he was no longer here, for God took him away.” In this passage, we see that Enoch was physically present in one moment and then gone in the next. However, it is not specific as to

Mass Intentions

Next weekend, August 21 & 22, Fr. Al Abainza from the Society of Our Lady

of the Most Holy Trinity (SOLT) will give a mission appeal at our parish.

Serving in twelve countries including the United States, SOLT Missionaries bring hope and the love of Jesus and Mary to people living in impoverished conditions. They serve migrant farm workers, refugees, Na ve Americans, orphans, the elderly, families and those undergoing drug rehabilita on.

SOLT missionaries serve in parishes and schools giving the sacraments and teaching catechism in remote areas. They also care for the needs of the poor through community and family development projects such as clean water, food and medical care. Your generosity makes it possible for these missionaries to bring Christ to the poor.

where God had taken him. Other places in scripture provide further clarity on Enoch’s fate. Beginning with Sirach, there are two separate men ons of Enoch’s assump on into heaven. “Enoch pleased the Lord and was taken up; he was an example of repentance to all generations” (Sirach 44:16) and “No one like Enoch has been created on earth, for he was taken up from the earth” (Sirach 49:14). In both of these verses we see that Enoch physically ascends from the earth and that God wills this for him, particularly as an excep on to the typical human experience of death as the result of original sin. Further, in the New Testament, we have even further clarifica on regarding the end of Enoch’s earthly life. “By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had tak-en him” (Hebrews 11:5). Again, St. Paul conveys to us the reward of a bodily assump on into heaven by virtue of the man’s holiness.

The second man in the Old Testament to be assumed bodily into heaven was Elijah. Elijah and Elisha were walking along together, “And as they s ll went on and talked, behold, chariots of fire and horses of fire separated the two of them. And Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven” (2 Kings 2:11). Later, in 1 Maccabees 2:50, we are reminded of the gi Elijah received due to his holiness: “Elijah, because of his great zeal for the law, was taken up into heaven.” These two men from the Old Testament prefigure the bodily Assump on of the Blessed Virgin

Mary. If God has clearly set the precedent that He takes par cu-larly faithful and holy people to heaven in their physical bodies, it is not a far stretch to understand that He would offer that same gi to the Blessed Mother of God, who gave her perfect ascent to His will.

Now, moving on to the New Testament, we see several instances of foreshadowing as the description of Mary “going up” in her physical body is a consistent theme throughout her presence in scripture. The first instance of Mary going up is shortly a er she conceived Jesus. Luke tells us, “During those days Mary set out and traveled to the hill country in haste to a town of Judah, where she entered into the house of Zech-

ariah and greeted Elizabeth” (Luke 1:39). So, right away we see Mary going up into the hills to tend to her pregnant cousin.

While Mary was pregnant, a census was called, “And Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the town of Nazareth, to Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David” (Luke 2:4). Of course, since Mary was with her husband for the journey, she too “went up” to Bethlehem. Following the birth of Jesus, the Holy Family had to flee to Egypt to hide from the wrath of Herod. “But when Herod died, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying, ‘Rise, take the child and his mother

(Continued from cover.)

and go to the land of Israel’…and he rose and took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel” (Matt 2:19-22). With Israel being geographically North of Egypt, we see a figura ve descrip on of Mary “going up” with her family. In Luke’s Gospel, we also see Mary going up when she, along with Joseph, presented Jesus in the temple. “…they brought him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord” (Luke 2:22). Further still, as they were raising Jesus, Mary and Joseph would take Jesus to Jerusalem every year to celebrate the Passover, “And when he was twelve years old, they went up according to the custom” (Luke 2:41). Again, we see Mary going up when she ascended Calvary with her Son for His crucifixion: “but standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother” (John 19:25). Finally, Mary was in the upper room with the Apostles as they awaited the descent of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost, “And when they had entered they went up to the upper room…together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus” (Acts 1:13-14). With all of these examples, we can clearly see Mary in the act of ascending and, since all Scripture is inspired by God Himself, the theme is inten onal.

In Revela on, the last book of the Bible, we have one final image of Mary: “And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars” (Rev 12:1). Due to Revelation’s abstract nature, not all Christian denominations have interpreted that the woman is Mary. However, in light of all of the context regarding the bodily assumption of Old Testament figures, Mary’s unique virtue and holiness, and the New Testament fulfilling what has been foretold in the Old, it is a natural progression for the Catholic Church to teach that the woman of Revela on is, in fact, the body and soul of Mary assumed into heaven.

Reflect on the beautiful cohesiveness contained in Scripture as it reveals God’s plan for mankind. How can you imitate the Assump on of Mary, Enoch, and Elijah by giving your assent to the will of God in all things? How can you “go up” even further toward the Lord in heaven?

In this week’s appeal, I thought I would give a job descrip on for each of the needs we have in Faith Forma on for grades K-5.

A Catechist has about a 2.5 hour weekly commitment. This includes going over the course material before class. It shouldn’t take longer than an hour. We ask

that you get here 15 minutes early to greet the children and prepare your room. The actual teaching and class me is one hour and 15 minutes. This is a total of 2.5 hours per week. The commitment lasts from September 7, 2021, un l May 4, 2022.

The aide just shows up and makes sure none of the children become unruly. We must have two adults in a room for Safe Environment. Pre y simple.

We provide the Catechist with the materials they need. You will receive a book that pretty much explains exactly what you should do. It is super easy.

As you get more comfortable, you may decide to include your own resources. This is great, as long as they have the appropriate Catholic Worldview.

We have incredibly experienced catechists who are willing to help you if you need help. You will not be alone.

Most catechist tell me they received more from teaching children than they give. This is common. There is no be er joy than to share our gi s with others. There is no greater gi than eternal life.

That is what we are asking. Please help children find the path to eternal life. What greater gi can you give a stranger? I can’t think of any — other than laying down one’s life for a friend (Jn 15:13). The good news is, we aren’t asking this. We just need help teaching.

Contact Dr. Lenny at lenny.kelley@corpuschristiphx.org if you want to help lead children to heaven.

In the forward to Paul’s book, FAITH UNDERSTOOD, An Ordinary Man’s Journey to the Presence of God, Bishop Olmsted writes:

“I hope that Paul’s story encourages you to experience the reality of God’s love and to welcome Him as the Lord of your life…God is now using Paul’s story to build up His kingdom through Paul’s witness to a living Jesus Christ. I hope you are encouraged by Paul’s story as much as I have been.”

Parish Center Renova on Update

Dear Parishioners,

Our Parish Center renovation planning has encountered more obstacles, which has caused another delay to the project start date. We have run into contractor issues and are currently working to resolve them. We are trying to take these obstacles and turn them into something good. Because of a delayed start date, we are using the opportunity to aim for including the bathroom remodel and a few other smaller changes into the first (and hopefully only!) phase. If we are able to do so, this would actually help to complete the en re project sooner than it would have been, had it remained in two phases. We are working with our architect to make the necessary modifica ons to the building drawings. Once he completes those drawings, our contractor will provide us with itemized es mates that Fr. Rey, the Finance Council, and the Parish Center Design Committee can approve or decline. Once the new drawings and estimates are approved, we can submit for permits and begin construction. Our new anticipated construction start date is January 2022. We are choosing to look at the posi ve side of things, such as how the parish center can now be used to hold events this fall, including our Parish Game Nights, Volunteer Appreciation Dinner, Parish Expo, Christmas overflow Masses, and various ministry events and meetings. As always, please pray for this project and for all those involved in ensuring its success. Thank you!
