Reflections from Fr. Emil... SYMBOLS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT Water. The symbolism of water signifies the Holy Spirit's action in Baptism, since after the invocation of the Holy Spirit it becomes the efficacious sacramental sign of new birth; just as the gestation of our first birth took place in water, so the water of Baptism truly signifies that our birth into the divine life is given to us in the Holy Spirit. As by one Spirit we were all baptized, so we are also made to drink of one Spirit. Thus the Spirit is also personally the living water welling up from Christ crucified as its source and welling up in us to eternal life. Anointing. The symbolism of anointing with oil also signifies the Holy Spirit. In Christian initiation, anointing is the sacramental sign of Confirmation, called Chrismation in the Churches of the East. Its full force can be grasped only in relation to the primary anointing accomplished by the Holy Spirit, that of Jesus. Christ means the one anointed by God's Spirit. There were several anointed ones of the Lord in the Old Testament, pre-eminently King David. But Jesus is God's Anointed in a unique way. The Holy Spirit established him as Christ. The Virgin Mary conceived Christ by the Holy Spirit who, through the angel, proclaimed him the Christ at his birth and prompted Simeon to come to the temple to see the Christ of the Lord. The Spirit filled Christ and the power of the Spirit went out from him in his acts of healing and of saving. Finally it was the Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead. Fr. Emil SYMBOLE DUCHA ŚWIĘTEGO Woda. Symbolika wody oznacza działanie Ducha Świętego w sakramencie chrztu, ponieważ po wezwaniu Ducha Śiętego staje się ona skutecznym znakiem sakramentalnym nowego narodzenia; jak nasze pierwsze naturalne narodzenie dokonało się w wodzie, tak woda chrzcielna rzeczywiście oznacza nasze narodzenie do życia Bożego, które jest nam udzielone w Duchu Świętym. Ochrzczeni w jednym Duchu, zostaliśmy również napojeni jednym Duchem.. Duch jest więc także w sposób osobowy Wodą żywą, która wypływa z boku Chrystusa ukrzyżowanego jak ze swego żródła i która tryska w nas na życie wieczne. Namaszczenie. Symbolika namaszczenia olejem także oznacza Ducha Świętego, a nawet staje się Jego synonimem. We wtejemniczeniu chrześcijańskim jest ono znakiem sakramentalnym bierzmowania, słusznie nazwanego w Kościołach wschodnich "chryzmacją". Chcąc jednak ująć w pełni całą wymowę tej symboliki, trzeba odwołać się do pierwszego namaszczenia dokonanego przez Ducha Świętego, którym było namaszczenie Jezusa. Chrystus w języku hebrajskim "Mesjasz" oznacza namaszczony Duchem Bożym. Namaszczeni Pana byli już w Starym Testamencie, w sposób szczególny król Dawid. Jezus jest namaszczonym Boga w sposób zupełnie wyjątkowy, ponieważ człowieczeństwo, które przyjmuje Syn, jest całkowicie namaszczone Duchem Świętym. Ks. Emil EL NOMBRE, LOS APELATIVOS I LOS SIMBOLOS DEL ESPIRITU SANTO Espiritu Santo, tal es el nombre proprio de Aquel que adoramos y glorificamos con el Padre y el Hijo. La Iglesia ha recibido este nombre del Seńor y lo profesa en el bautismo de sus nuevos hijos. Jesus cuando anuncia y promesa la Venida del Espiritu Santo, le llama el Paraclito, literalmente aquel que es llamado junto a uno, advocatus. Paraclito se traduce habitualmente por Consolador, siendo Jesus el primer consolador. El mismo Seńor llama al Espiritu Santo, Espiritu de Verdad. Ademas de su nombre proprio, que es el mas empleado en el libro de los Hechos y en las cartas de los apostoles, en San Pablo se encuentran los siguientes apelativos; el Espiritu de la promesa, el Espiritu de adopcion, el Espiritu de Cristo, el Espiritu del Seńor, el Espiritu de Dios, y en San Pedro, el Espiritu de gloria. Padre Emilio GOOD TIMING The best time to do something worthwhile is between yesterday and tomorrow. Anonymous
SCHOOL NEWS. What a way to teach the meaning of Love to our preschoolers! To celebrate St. Valentine s Day the Pk-3 and PK-4 students invited their parents and grandparents to a Tea Party to honor them. Children sang songs, served cookies and tea to their special guests. Children also made presents to present to their parents on this day. Children learned that love means giving, serving, sharing, and caring. In Religion they learned the words of Jesus: Love one another. Jaki jest sposób nauczania w Przedszkolu tematu dotyczącego miłości? Aby celebrowad święto Walentynki nasi uczniowie z klas 3 i czwartych zaprosili ich Rodziców i Dziadków aby ich uhonorowad. Dzieci śpiewały piosenki, serwowały ciastka i herbate dla swoich wyjątkowych Gości. Dzieci również ofiarowały prezenty dla swoich Rodziców w ten szczególny dzieo. Dzieci uczyły się, że miłowad to znaczy dawad, służyd, dzielid się oraz troszczyd się. Na religii przerabiali ten temat Chrystusa słów:"miłujcie się nawzajem". Que manera de ensenar el significado del amor a nuestros ninos de Pre-escolar de 3 and 4 anos de edad. Para celebrar el dia de San Valentin, nuestros ninos invitaron a sus papas y abuelitos a tomar te y galletas. Lo s ninos cantaron canciones, sirvieron y pasaron el te y galletas a sus invitados especiales. Los ninos tambien presentaron a sus papas un bonito regalo que ellos mismo hicieron. Los ninos aprendieron que amor significa: dar, servir, compartir y preocuparse por los demas. En Religion, los niños appredieron las ensenanzas de Jesus: Amarnos unos a otros. DON T BE ANXIOUS People have, it seems, a natural penchant for misplaced emphasis on important things. They can easily get caught up with what they re having for dinner or what they will wear. Often it is a tragedy that helps people to refocus on what is really important. What I shall wear is an irrelevant question when I am facing surgery or chemotherapy. What s for dinner is immaterial to those living through grief or unemployment. In today s Gospel, Jesus tells us not to worry. He doesn t say, Don t eat. Don t cook. Don t buy clothes. He says, Don t worry. Jesus asks us not to relinquish our responsibilities but to let go of our anxiety. Anxiety betrays a lack of trust and Jesus reminds us that Your heavenly Father knows all that you need (Matthew 6:32). Copyright, J. S. Paluch Co.
