Sending Forth

“You must also be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.” Jesus has some cautionary words for his disciples in the Gospel today. He reminds them that the Kingdom of Heaven may come at any time, and they must be always in a state of preparation or readiness for that moment. We not know when the world as we know it will end, but it is more likely that we will meet the Son of Man when our own individual earthly lives come to an end. The day and time of our passing is unknown to us, like the rich fool in the Gospel last week, it is wise for us to remember that it could be this very night. Are we ready? The themes of preparation, waiting and hope are woven throughout all our scripture readings today. In the first reading, the Israelites celebrate the first Passover, hopeful in the power of the Lord to deliver them from slavery in Egypt. The psalmist reminds us that “our soul waits for the Lord.” And in the second reading, St. Paul writes to the Hebrews about Abraham, whose faith in the Lord and hopeful patience was legion, and who was rewarded by “descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky.” Our preparation to meet the Son of Man is an ongoing and evolving process. Can we ever be truly ready? Can we ever be too rich in the things that matter to God? Our faith promises that if we are earnest in our preparation and endeavor to make the things that matter to God the focus of our lives, the Son of Man will welcome us to the Kingdom of Heaven. Therefore, Jesus’ admonition is a call to a joyful preparation. The Lord is “our help and our shield.” We need not fear the coming of the Son of Man; but we need to be ready! The destination is Heaven, but journey is important too. How are you preparing yourself to meet the Son of Man?

First Reading — Your ancestors waited in faith and courage for God’s promised summons (Wisdom 18:6-9).

Psalm — Blessed the people the Lord has chosen to be his own (Psalm 33).

Second Reading — By faith Abraham sojourned in the promised land (Hebrews 11:1-2, 8-19 [1-2, 8-12]).

Gospel — You do not know the day nor the hour when the Son of Man will appear (Luke 12:32-48 [35-40]).

When parents begin registering their children for classes, they often ask, “So, what is Faith Formation?”

Several years ago, rather than the term Religious Ed or CCD, most parishes started using the term, Faith Formation. This term better describes, and underscores the fact, that the job of Catholic parents, along with volunteer parish catechists, is to Inform, Form and Transform, w ith God’s grace, the student’s heart and head. Thereby, they will be ready to receive all that their Creator and Savior has in store for them!

At the parish of Carmel Mission Basilica, in addition to the program for Formation of Children in the primary grades of K to 8, Faith Formation also includes programs to prepare for First Reconciliation and First Communion, Confirmation and RCIA.

For REGISTRATION contact: [email protected] or (831) 624-1271 x218

LITURGY VAULT “The liturgy is celebrated for God and not for ourselves;

it is His work; He is the subject; and we must open ourselves to Him” (Pope Benedict XVI, 3 October 2012).

THE ORDER OF MASS: THE LITURGY OF THE WORD – PART 11

The Reading of the Gospel After silently incensing the Book of the Gospels, the Deacon or Priest proclaims the Gospel reading appointed for the day.

“The choice of sections to be read is determined by the fact that some are more suitable to the particular occasion, but more usually the choice is made according to a continuous reading of the Gospels, which is spread over a three-year cycle on Sundays” (Rev. Jovian P. Lang, OFM, Dictionary of the Liturgy (1989), p. 234).

This three-year cycle of Gospel readings on Sundays consists of the Year of Matthew (Year A), the Year of Mark (Year B), and the Year of Luke (Year C). These three Gospels are together referred to as the Synoptic Gospels. This term has been used since about 1790, deriving “from the fact that these Gospels admit—differently from the evangelical narrative of St John—of being arranged and harmonized section by section, so as to allow the eye to realize at a glance (synopsis) the numerous passages which are common to them, and also the portions which are peculiar either to only two, or even to only one, of them” (Francis Gigot, The Catholic Encyclopedia, vol. 14 (1912), “Synoptics”).

St John’s Gospel “is placed annually in Lent and during Easter Time, while “the weekday Lectionary chooses from all four Gospels each year” (Rev. Jovian P. Lang, OFM, Dictionary of the Liturgy (1989), p. 234).

At the end of the Gospel, the Deacon or Priest says: “The Gospel of the Lord”. The congregation replies: “Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ”. The Deacon of Priest then kisses the book, saying quietly: “Through the words of the Gospel may our sins be wiped away”.

The solemn reading or proclamation of the Gospel is “the high point of the Liturgy of the Word” (General Instruction of the Roman Missal, n. 60), when Christ is present and speaking to His people.

“Jesus Christ teaches the science of salvation and points out the way of life, — on the one hand, by His word and example, announced to us by the Gospel, and, on the other hand, by the interior voice of grace which so sweetly and powerfully speaks to the heart. Joyfully moved by a feeling of heartfelt gratitude for the blessed truth and grace of the Gospel, the faithful break into words of praise and glorification, saying: ‘Praised be to Thee, O Christ!” (Rev. Dr. Nicholas Gihr, The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass (1942), p. 481).

I am excited to say that the preschool and kindergarten program at Carmel Mission’s Junipero Serra School is growing! Our beautiful Carmel Mission offers perhaps the most serene location in all of California for early childhood development. As a Catholic School focused on educating the whole child, young children at Junipero Serra School are immersed in a faith-filled and spiritual learning community where our preschool and kindergarten teachers nurture the moral, academic, artistic and physical development of each child. The guiding of healthy character development incorporating Christian values of service, compassion and moral decision making begin in the earliest years at Carmel Mission’s school.

We are very eager to get the word out to young families looking for a special place like the Carmel Mission for their child’s early and formative years. Today we are distributing yards signs after Mass. If you have space in your front yard near a street, please take a sign and help us spread the word of our good school. The signs can also be placed in the windows of businesses. If you have a business with a street front window, or have friends with a business, please take a sign. One family seeing our sign, and thus learning about the unique and special opportunity of early childhood education at Junipero Serra, could positively impact the moral development of a child, helping him or her learn about Jesus and the Gospel.

Take a sign today and be a part of spreading the good word of Carmel Mission’s Junipero Serra School!

If you are not able to get a sign after Mass, please call the school at 624-8322 to arrange receiving a sign.

A MESSAGE FROM JUNIPERO SERRA SCHOOL PRINCIPAL: STEVE HENDERSON


Dear Friends of Carmel Mission,

In times of grief, in times of senseless violence, in times of tragedy, in times of helplessness, many people turn to faith.

When what is happening around us seems beyond our control, many people turn to God.

In our readings this weekend, the author of the Letter to the Hebrews describes faith as “the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen.”

Faith enables us to look beyond what we see with our eyes and to believe that the good things for which we dare to hope, will one day become a reality.

Faith is not a fable nor a fantasy that promises us “pie in the sky when we die”. It is rather a reality rooted in the Resurrection of Jesus from the dead. As St. Paul wrote, if there is no Resurrection, then our faith is in vain and we are most to be pitied (1Cor.15:13)

Faith is also a call to action, and this is where it can become difficult for us. Jesus has chosen us to be His faithful followers and that requires a commitment on our part to adopt His attitude to life and to espouse His value-system.

It implies that we are willing to make our world a better place by the actions we take in our daily lives.

There is much darkness in our world, but if each of us were to light a candle for justice, truth, peace and harmony, the world would be a brighter and a better place.

Jesus Christ is our Light, today and every day.

Blessings,

Fr. Paul


Thank You for your Stewardship! Your continued generosity for the week ending in 7 /28/2019

I thank you for your sense of Stewardship and your great generosity. —Fr Paul, Pastor

SERRA RELIQUARY Fr. Junipero Serra died at the Carmel Mission in his room on the afternoon of 28 August 1784. A ship's carpenter from a vessel docked in Monterey harbor at the time fashioned a simple coffin of redwood boards to hold his body for internment beneath the altar floor of the Serra Adobe church. When the stone church was constructed in 1793, it was built around Fr. Serra's grave which is now located in the center vault on the left side of the sanctuary.

In 1943, for the process of canonization of Fr. Serra, a formal Canonical Tribunal composed of historians, forensic anthropologists, theologians and scholars was convened to open the vaults in the sanctuary

and conclusively identify the occupants of the graves. After Fr. Serra's remains were examined and positively identified, they were placed in a modern child's copper casket and sealed with the canonical markings before being re-interred in the original grave. The pieces of the redwood coffin were set aside for safekeeping and were eventually placed in the reliquary.

The Serra Reliquary at the right side of the altar, made of gilded wood and glass panels, was built by former Curator Richard Menn and Huu Van Nguyen in 1984 to hold the remnants of the original coffin of Fr. Serra. The pillow beneath the bundle of boards of the coffin was the episcopal kneeling pillow that was part of the throne of Archbishop Jose Sadoc Alemany of the Monterey diocese (1850-1853).

At the top of this reliquary is a crest with two fields of red and yellow stripes and two fields with a church painted on a blue background. The stripes are the colors of the flag and crest of Majorca, the island off the coast of Spain where Fr. Serra was born. The church is the Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma, more commonly referred to as La Seu. It is a Gothic Roman Catholic cathedral built on the site of a pre-existing Arab mosque in the old Roman quarter.
