Fr. Tom Mullen was from Ardee, Dublin, Ireland. He was 23 years old when he was ordained with the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary on January 11, 1975. He was a Chaplain of St. Mark’s School in Tallaght, Pastor in Peterborough, Great Misenden and Acton in West London. Fr. Tom came to the United States and was Pastor of Holy Name of Mary in San Dimas for 10 years before coming to St. Paul the Apostle.

He was an energetic, honest, full of life and uplifting Priest. He was very generous with his time and loved his Panera Coffee and breakfast with the morning Mass Parishioners. Fr. Tom always came down from the altar during his sermons amongst the people and was to the point, sometimes loud, to share his message with us. His smile was infectious to all and his loud “PEACE BE TO YA” will be so dearly missed by all. We are grateful for the service and love that you shared with the Parishioners of St. Paul the Apostle.

Join us on Friday,

July 31st at 7:00 p.m.

for a Memorial Mass.

TREASURES FROM OUR

TRADITION

Sooner of later, as they plan their wedding liturgy, a couple will receive some advice about a “unity candle.” They need one, they are told (at great expense); it is a tradition; it is what Catholics have always done. Not so. In the last thirty years or so, the custom has enjoyed wide popularity in the United States. It has never been officially part of our liturgy, and it exists in tension with some of our core symbols. Usually there are two smaller candles and one larger one to be lit from the smaller. Large candles in our tradition always mean Christ, and smaller ones are always tokens of our baptismal candle. If the candles are meant for a kind of renewal of baptismal vows, then the meaning is clearer, yet this is seldom the understanding. Why, then, are those smaller candles extinguished?

It’s hard to tell where these pesky candles came from. Some suggest that the Presbyterian Church, which has a very lean wedding liturgy, introduced them as an option for extending a short service. Generally, it’s been experienced as a “photo opportunity” rather than a genuine liturgical ritual. The “unity candle,” a recent invention rather than an authentic tradition, has not been approved as an adaptation to our rite, and it is to be hoped that it will gradually disappear from view.
