4 December 17, 2017 Page 4 A Polish Christmas Tradition By Father Lukasz Kubiak Opłatki are thin square wafers, similar to the bread used for hosts at Mass, but not consecrated. This tradition comes from Eastern Europe, around the area of Poland. The wafers may be embossed with a Christmas manger scene. Ideally, opłatki are used at the main meal eaten on Christmas Eve. By tradition, the table in the home is set with some straw under the tablecloth to represent the straw in the manger. Children look out for the first star that appears around dusk. This signals the beginning of the Christmas Eve meal. All the members of the family gather around the table. The head of the household may say a prayer of blessing. Then, this person begins to distribute the wafer by breaking off a small piece for him/herself. This person offers the remainder of the wafer to the next person, who in turn breaks off his/her piece and shares with the next person. Alternately, it may be divided in another way. The first person may offer the wafer to the second person, who holds it while the first person breaks off his or her piece. The second person then gives it to the third person who holds it while the second breaks off a piece. The wafer becomes increasingly smaller as it is passed around the table and each person present takes a small piece. After all present have received a piece of the wafer, a short prayer may be said reminding all of the Incarnation. Then, everyone eats their pieces. When this is done, the meal itself begins. The wafer is of the same consistency as the bread used to make hosts for Mass. This is no coincidence. Rather, the opłatki reminds one of the Mass and the bread which will become the Body of Christ. The family around the table is reminded of the community around the altar, the table of the Lord. As we sit for a common meal, so we are reminded that Jesus gave us the Sacrament of the Eucharist to be food for our souls, the bread from heaven. And the sharing of the one wafer calls to mind unity and reconciliation. It is not unlike the sharing of the sign of peace at Mass. The breaking of the wafer also calls to mind the breaking of the consecrated Host by the priest right before Communion.
5 December 17, 2017 Page 5 Homiletic starters and scriptural reflection points for each day of the month Jer 23:5-8; Ps 72:1-19; Mt 1:18-25 We have begun the O Antiphons, the seven-day novena, if you will, that closes the Advent season; I conclude the Daily Bread each day this week with its the appointed antiphon. Today we see things from Joseph s point of view. His silence is golden, as his devotion to Mary saves her from the law that would have stoned her for adultery. You know what? It s a love story! Really, the story is so simple and sweet and it continues to inspire. O Leader of the House of Israel, giver of the Law to Moses on Sinai: Come to rescue us with your mighty power! Tuesday, December 19, 2017 Jgs 13:2-7, 24-25a; Ps 71:3-17; Lk 1:5-25 After thousands of years, salvation history is finally picking up speed. John the Baptist representing the long-anticipated return of Elijah is on his way! Of course, there are still a few bumps in the road, such as when the angel Gabriel strikes Zechariah dumb for expressing a doubt, one which we d all share: How does a couple in their nineties have a baby? But how many times have I doubted that God could bring life out of my withering sin? Impossible! I say. Shut your mouth! says the Lord. Like Zechariah, I will again be praising the Lord when God s promises are fulfilled. O Root of Jesse s stem, sign of God s love for all people: Come to save us without delay! Wednesday, December 20, 2017 Is 7:10-14; Ps 24:1-6; Lk 1:26-38 Mary ever virgin, expresses her uncertainty with this question. But she did have the baby we d been waiting for! We had fun in some astonishing college classes on the Trinity at Boston College, where classmates and the professor unwrapped the depths of the question: Was Jesus a human person? We picked and we picked till we came up with: Yes, Jesus was a human person, but the person who was human was the second person of the Trinity! Mary knew that person, that holy child, because she was willing to say: Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word. And, her yes allows us to know him too. O Key of David, opening the gates of God s eternal Kingdom: Come and free the prisoners of darkness! THIRD WEEK OF ADVENT Sg 2:8-14; Ps 33:2-21; Lk 1:39-45 Here it is only four more shopping days until Christmas and Mary is heading for the hills! Any chance we might follow her example? The malls have been doing Christmas for months, but the church moves at its own pace. Advent is a time for reflection, preparation, self-awareness, even if we re already singing carols here and there. I recommend the posadas, our annual nightly visits to the poor in our little town here in Honduras, re-enacting Joseph and Mary s quest for lodging in Bethlehem. We share and sing and pray for an hour or so, a treasured time of peace and quiet. Join us, at least in spirit! O Radiant Dawn, splendor of eternal light, sun of justice: Come and shine on those who dwell in darkness and in the shadow of death. Friday, December 22, Sm 1:24-28; 1 Sm 2-8; Lk 1:46-56 A lot of Christmas carols are pretty sentimental. Why aren t there more songs with lyrics provided by the original caroler, the Virgin Mary herself? A cynic might say she s plagiarizing the Song of Hannah (used for the responsorial psalm today). But look closely. Mary is a social justice warrior, yes, but her real theme is mercy, a quality unmentioned in her source. So, sure, I d love to see some fat cats taken down a peg and some humble folks catching a break. But that mercy thing, you see, it s the bottom line. So sing, sing of the Lord who has mercy in every generation. O King of all nations and keystone of the Church: Come and save us, whom you formed from the dust! Saturday, December 23, 2017 Mal 3:1-4, 23-24; Ps 25:4-14; Lk 1:57-66 Without Luke s Gospel, Christmas would be impossible! Luke seems to think the same thing about John the Baptist. Now, is this a flub? They made signs, asking his father what he wished him to be called. Zechariah is mute, he s not deaf! But you have to love this story; everyone expects that an only son will receive his father s name, but there s another Father involved. John in Hebrew is Yohanan, that is, Yahweh is gracious. So, this is it: one more hold till Christmas Eve. I feel as tingly as the attendees at John s birth: What, then, will this child be? O Emmanuel, our King and giver of the Law: Come to save us, Lord our God! Thursday, December 21, 2017
