A SUNDAY FOR REJOICING Today’s Gospel story of the prodigal son is a favorite of many. We can identify with all the major figures and their crisscross of emotions. The father’s initial grief over his young son’s avarice is turned to relief at his return. The son’s grief over his loss of fortune, family, and friends is turned to delirious joy at the sight of his father. We understand the eldest son’s bewilderment over his father’s generosity. For the older son, virtue seems not to be its own reward. For all his honorable toil and loyalty, there seems to be no celebration. The father, however, is prodigal in his forgiveness and mercy. He expects the same generosity from his older son. He wants all to rejoice when the lost one is found. This is a Sunday for rejoicing. It’s time to pause, consider, and encourage one another. We are the prodigal children head-ing home. We are the elder siblings waiting with the eager Father, who scans the horizon. In Christ Jesus we are reconciled to the Father and one another. In his death and resurrection we have passed over. We are a new creation. In this we rejoice. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION One of the first steps to a Catholic wedding takes place in the parish rectory, as the newly engaged come forward to “set a date.” We owe this scenario to reforms made by the emperor Charlemagne late in the eighth century. He required that nobles and commoners alike have public weddings, and also required that marrying couples be examined for factors that would block a marriage, such as previous marriages or close kinship. The pope was more conservative, however, and resisted the emperor’s creativity. It was enough for the pope that the couples exchange consent. That tradition is passed on to this day, to some couples’ surprise. In 866, Pope Nicholas ruled that a marriage was legal and binding even without a liturgy or public celebration. After that, it was the consent of the couple, not the blessing of parents or priest, that made a marriage “count.” If consent was lacking, such as through abduction or fear, then the marriage could not “take.” Charlemagne got a great deal done, but he was a political flash in the pan, and the empire had virtually collapsed by the year 1000. Europe broke into a checkerboard of princedoms and languages, and at last all marriages came under the church, the glue holding the known world together. —Rev. James Field, Copyright © J. S.

Have to Have a Habitat

JSS visits The Monterey Bay Aquarium

In early February, the first and third graders at Junípero Serra School visited the Monterey Bay Aquarium to further their study of animal habitats. Prior to the visit, the students studied differ-ent kinds of plants and animals that live in a specific environment. The children began the day with a special lab called Sensational Scientists. In this lab, the children were provided a hands-on introduc-tion to the local habitats in the Monterey Bay. Small groups of students rotated around the classroom to sort, observe and record their findings. The use of live marine animals enriched the experience for the children. After the students finished the Discovery lab, they had a self-guided tour of the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Some of the favorite exhibits included the Splash Zone, the Open Sea tank, the Kelp Forest, the Sandy Shore and Aviary, all of the touch tanks as well as the otters and penguins! The first graders finished up their Life Science unit with a publishing party for their families. The children wrote animal reports as part of their non-fiction unit in Writers’ Workshop.
