3 3 RICHARD ROHR S MEDITATION: TRUTH IS ONE Science is no longer, nor should it ever have been, our enemy; instead quantum physics, biology, and other academic disciplines are revealing that science is our new and excellent partner, much better than philosophy ever was. Truth is One. If something is spiritually true, it will also be true in the physical world, and all disciplines and all religions will somehow be looking at this one truth from different angles, goals, assumptions, and vocabulary. If we are really convinced that we have the Big Truth, then we should also be able to trust that others will see it from their different angles or it is not the Big Truth. No one wants to be our enemy unless they assume that we ourselves have chosen to live in our own small tent and cannot or do not want to talk to them on their terms. Christians have too often assumed ill will and been far too eager to create enemies instead of realising that others often enjoyed very similar good news inside of different packaging. As my colleague and fellow Living School teacher Cynthia Bourgeault says, We begin to discover that our Buddhist and Jewish and Islamic and Hindu friends are not competitors. Religion is not a survival of the fittest. There is a deep understanding that we all swim together or we sink together. Each religious tradition reveals a colour of the heart of God that is precious. [1] Big Truth is written in reality itself before it was ever written in books. If you say yes to Reality, to what is, you will recognise the same truth when it shows itself in anyone s sacred scriptures. If you do not respond to the good, the true, and the beautiful (the three qualities of being) in daily reality, I doubt if you will ever see it in the best Bible translation in the world. If it is the truth, it is true all the time and everywhere, and sincere lovers of truth will take it from wherever it comes. If it is true, it is common domain, and there for the mind to see in the things that God has made (Romans 1:20). Or, as Aquinas was fond of saying, quoting Ambrose (another Doctor of the Church), If it s true, it is always from the one Holy Spirit. [2] The important question is not, Who said it? but, Is it true? References: [1] Cynthia Bourgeault, Returning to Essentials: Teaching an Alternative Orthodoxy, disc 1 (CAC: 2015), CD, MP3 download. [2] Thomas Aquinas, De Veritate, q. 1, a. 8. Also Summa Theologia I-II, q. 109, a. 1, ad 1. The statement Omne verum, a quocumque dicatur, a Spiritu Sancto est is recorded in Patres Latini, 17, 245; today, the unknown author is called Ambrosiaster. Adapted from Richard Rohr, Immortal Diamond: The Search for Our True Self (Jossey- Bass: 2013), The Bishops Conference of England and Wales has launched this website in the line of the venerable Catholic tradition of Ars moriendi ( The Art of Dying ). As Christians how do we approach our own death and the death of loved ones? Please visit this site to help ponder this important dimension of our faith:

4 4 The Season of Advent... The Season of Advent is a beautiful season of our Church year, but it can so easily become a lost season lost amidst the Christmas rush, the Christmas parties and the Christmas shopping. It takes some effort to allow Advent to realise its potential in our lives as individuals and as a community. Some ways to keep the time of Advent: WEEKDAY MASS provides rich fodder for reflection in the selection of Advent Scripture readings, while the Eucharist itself brings us the daily encounter with the Lord whose coming we prepare for. PRAYER TIMES AT HOME: over the next few weeks we ll print some prayer celebrations that you can use at home to keep some of this time of Advent. THE SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION provides a forum for reviewing our discipleship and preparing for a new beginning as we enter another liturgical year. There will be a celebration of the Second Rite of Reconciliation on Wednesday 21st December at 7:30pm which will be for the whole parish and will be held in Holy Family Church at Lindfield. We will have a similar celebration in Lent, on which occasion it will be held in Immaculate Heart of Mary Church at Killara. The Second Rite of Reconciliation takes the form of a communal celebration with a short liturgy leading us into the time of individual confessions (we will have several priests present) and concluding with a common prayer of thanksgiving and final blessing and hymn. CHARITABLE WORKS FUND APPEAL - UPDATE The second appeal for the Charitable Works Fund for this Financial Year has so far raised $11,940 of our $15,000 quota. Envelopes are still available near the doors of both our churches. Donations to CWF are 100% tax deductible. Our Pre-Christmas Anointing Mass and pre-christmas Luncheon A reminder that our final Healing Mass for the year will be celebrated at Lindfield on the second Friday of the month, Friday 9th December, and at the later time of 11:00am as it will be followed by lunch, rather than morning tea, in Shirley Wallace Parish Centre. We invite all who regularly attend this Mass, and of course all who seek God s healing strength. We would especially invite our senior parishioners for the Mass and the luncheon afterwards. PARISH YOUNG ADULTS GROUP The next gathering is TODAY Sunday 27th November and will take place immediately following the 6pm Mass and will be held in the lounge in the Shirley Wallace Parish Centre on the first floor of Lindfield church. All young adults welcome.

Over 60 people from various Churches in our Roseville Lindfield - Killara Interchurch Fellowship took part.

7 7 UPDATE ON THE HALL AT KILLARA As you know, following the damage to the hall at Killara following heavy rains earlier in the year, we have undertaken not just to repair the damage but to re-furbish the hall as an important community space in our parish. The annexe has been removed and a pleasant covered area restored in its place, providing an outdoor spill-over space from the hall itself. The old kitchen, in much need of repair, has been removed. replace this with a completely new kitchen. We will shortly Air-conditioning was installed in the hall in this last week so that it will be a pleasant gathering space both in winter and summer. Built-in storage cupboards will be erected at the southern end of the hall at the service of the various parish groups and ministries which use the hall. Finally the hall floor will be sanded and re-polished. This much-improved community space will be completed hopefully by the year s end or shortly thereafter. After that our monthly Healing Mass and morning tea for the whole parish will return to Killara church and hall as its venue. Fr Colin FLOWERS FOR THE ALTAR AT LINDFIELD The system for providing flowers at Holy Family church is that we have a number of parishioners who provide an annual donation towards this cost and then Betty Harris our coordinator orders the flower arrangements each week from the florist and these are delivered on the weekend. The cost is $120 per week. We currently have sufficient donors to cover 26 Sundays of the year. If you would be willing to adopt a Sunday and contribute this cost could you please contact the Parish Office as soon as possible. Many thanks. CHRISTMAS GIFTS FOR WATERLOO Again this year the Waterloo Conference of the St Vincent de Paul Society asks for your support. Your previous generosity has helped us bring comfort and joy to many needy families. We thank you for sharing in this ongoing commitment. Peace and Joy to you all. Cards with ages and gender of the children are available from the Christmas Tree in the foyers of both our churches. Please take a card and return the selected gift by 3/4th December. If you are unable to contribute by way of a gift then please say a prayer for the poor and needy.

8 8 THE PRAYERS AND RESPONSES OF MASS We abstain from the joyful words of the Gloria during these days of Advent as we prepare our hearts and our community to celebrate once again the birth of the Lord Jesus INVITATION TO PRAYER LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST: Celebrant: Pray, brothers and sisters, that my sacrifice and yours.. May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise & glory of his name, for our good and the good of all his holy Church. SANCTUS: Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts. Heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest. INVITATION TO HOLY COMMUNION: Celebrant: Behold the Lamb of God All: Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed. MEMORIAL ACCLAMATION:

9 THE PSALM IS 2:1-5. I rejoiced when I heard them say: Let us go to God s house. And now our feet are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem. It is there that the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord. For Israel s law it is, there to praise the Lord s name. There were set the thrones of judgement of the house of David. For the peace of Jerusalem pray: Peace be to your homes! May peace reign in your walls, in your palaces, peace! At Masses at which the Psalm is sung the response is: Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord. GOSPEL ACCLAMATION : Alleluia, alleluia! Lord, show us your mercy and love, and grant us your salvation. Alleluia! 9 THE APOSTLES CREED I believe in one God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, (all bow at the following words in bold): who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen RESPONSES TO THE PSALM FOR WEEKDAY MASS: Mon : Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord. Tues: Justice shall flourish in his time, and fullness of peace for ever. Wed: Their message goes out through all the earth. Thurs: Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Fri: The Lord is my light and my salvation. Sat: Happy are all who long for the coming of the Lord. CELEBRATIONS THIS WEEK: First Week in Advent Wed.: Feast of St Andrew, apostle. Sat.: Memoria of St Francis Xavier THIS WEEKEND we begin a new liturgical year with the First Sunday of Advent. Readings will follow the Year A cycle on Sundays and Year 1 on weekdays. The Readings for the coming Sunday are always available on our parish website under Sacraments Scripture Readings for the Coming Sunday.

10 10 Be merciful like the Father Last Saturday Pope Francis created a number of new cardinals. His homily during the consistory was a beautiful reflection which can challenge us all at this time when the political mood of the Western world is tending more and more towards a spirit of isolation, exlusion and judgement of those who are different.. The Gospel passage we have just heard (cf. Lk 6:27-36) is often referred to as the Sermon on the Plain. After choosing the Twelve, Jesus came down with his disciples to a great multitude of people who were waiting to hear him and to be healed. The call of the Apostles is linked to this setting out, descending to the plain to encounter the multitudes who, as the Gospel says, were troubled (cf. v. 18). Instead of keeping the Apostles at the top of the mountain, their being chosen leads them to the heart of the crowd; it sets them in the midst of those who are troubled, on the plain of their daily lives. The Lord thus shows the Apostles, and ourselves, that the true heights are reached on the plain, while the plain reminds us that the heights are found in a gaze and above all in a call: Be merciful, even as your Father is merciful (v. 36). This call is accompanied by four commands or exhortations, which the Lord gives as a way of moulding the Apostles vocation through real, everyday situations. They are four actions that will shape, embody and make tangible the path of discipleship. We could say that they represent four stages of a mystagogy of mercy: love, do good, bless and pray. I think we can all agree on these, and see them as something reasonable. They are four things we can easily do for our friends and for those more or less close to us, people we like, people whose tastes and habits are similar to our own. The problem comes when Jesus tells us for whom we have do these things. Here he is very clear. He minces no words, he uses no euphemisms. He tells us: love your enemies; do good to those who hate you; bless those who curse you; pray for those who mistreat you (cf. vv ). These are not things we spontaneously do in dealing with people we consider our opponents or enemies. Our first instinctive reaction in such cases is to dismiss, discredit or curse them. Often we try to demonise them, so as to have a sacred justification for dismissing them. Jesus tells us to do exactly the opposite with our enemies, those who hate us, those who curse us or slander us. We are to love them, to do good to them, to bless them and to pray for them. Here we find ourselves confronted with one of the very hallmarks of Jesus message, where its power and secret are concealed. Here too is the source of our joy, the power of our mission and our preaching of the Good News. My enemy is someone I must love. In God s heart there are no enemies. God only has sons and daughters. We are the ones who raise walls, build barriers and label people. God has sons and daughters, precisely so that no one will be turned away. God s love has the flavour of fidelity towards everyone, for it is a visceral love, a parental love that never abandons us, even when we go astray. Our Father does not wait for us to be good before loving the world, the Father does not wait for us to be a little bit better or more perfect before loving us; the Father loves us because he chose to love us, the Father loves us because he has made us his sons and daughters. He loved us even when we were enemies (cf. Rom 5:10). The Father s unconditional love for all people was, and is, the true prerequisite for the conversion of our pitiful hearts that tend to judge, divide, oppose and condemn. To know that God continues to love even those who reject him is a boundless source of confidence and an impetus for our mission. No matter how sullied our hands may be, God cannot be stopped from placing in those hands the Life he wishes to bestow on us. (continued over )

11 11 (continued from page 10): Ours is an age of grave global problems and issues. We live at a time in which polarisation and exclusion are burgeoning and considered the only way to resolve conflicts. We see, for example, how quickly those among us with the status of a stranger, an immigrant, or a refugee, become a threat, take on the status of an enemy. An enemy because they come from a distant country or have different customs. An enemy because of the colour of their skin, their language or their social class. An enemy because they think differently or even have a different faith. An enemy because And, without our realising it, this way of thinking becomes part of the way we live and act. Everything and everyone then begins to savour of animosity. Little by little, our differences turn into symptoms of hostility, threats and violence. How many wounds grow deeper due to this epidemic of animosity and violence, which leaves its mark on the flesh of many of the defenceless, because their voice is weak and silenced by this pathology of indifference! How many situations of uncertainty and suffering are sown by this growing animosity between peoples, between us! Yes, between us, within our communities, our priests, our meetings. The virus of polarisation and animosity permeates our way of thinking, feeling and acting. We are not immune from this and we need to take care lest such attitudes find a place in our hearts, because this would be contrary to the richness & universality of the Church, which is tangibly evident in the College of Cardinals. We come from distant lands; we have different traditions, skin colour, languages & social backgrounds; we think differently & we celebrate our faith in a variety of rites. None of this makes us enemies; instead, it is one of our greatest riches. Dear brothers and sisters, Jesus never stops coming down from the mountain. He constantly desires to enter the crossroads of our history to proclaim the Gospel of Mercy. Jesus continues to call us and to send us to the plain where our people dwell. He continues to invite us to spend our lives sustaining our people in hope, so that they can be signs of reconciliation. As the Church, we are constantly being asked to open our eyes to see the wounds of so many of our brothers and sisters deprived of their dignity, deprived in their dignity. My dear brothers, newly created Cardinals, the journey towards heaven begins in the plains, in a daily life broken and shared, spent and given. In the quiet daily gift of all that we are. Our mountaintop is this quality of love; our goal and aspiration is to strive, on life s plain, together with the People of God, to become persons capable of forgiveness and reconciliation. Today each of you, dear brothers, is asked to cherish in your own heart, and in the heart of the Church, this summons to be merciful like the Father. And to realise that if something should rightly disturb us and trouble our consciences, it is the fact that so many of our brothers and sisters are living without the strength, light and consolation born of friendship with Jesus Christ, without a community of faith to support them, without meaning and a goal in life (Evangelii Gaudium, 49). Celebrating Christmas Making a Joyful Sound Unto the Lord ~ Please be part of a choir for Christmas ~ Even if you are not regularly part of the choir, we invite you to be part of the special choir for the 10:30pm Vigil Mass for Christmas at Lindfield (and the Carols at 10pm preceding it).

ST VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY A NOTE ABOUT PARISH FINANCES We are currently somewhat behind in our Second Collection income compared to the same point last year. We are at present in the process of utilising some $60-80,000 of the surplus we achieved last year addressing essential maintenance works in the parish, including the repair & refurbishment of Killara hall. So it s important that we again achieve a good result in this Financial Year. Please support our weekly collections generously. The 2017 Columban Calendars are now available at the main entrance to both Lindfield and Killara churches. Sale of these calendars supports the work of the Columban Missionaries throughout the world. Cost is $8 each. Please place the money in the Poor Box. CHRISTMAS CARDS are now available in both Lindfield and Killara Churches. Two new designs are available this year and they come in packets of ten. Cost is $6 per packet. Please place money in the Poor Box CAN YOU HELP THE HOMELESS IN A VERY PRACTICAL WAY? A Bakers Delight franchise not far from us has been able to provide unused bread to Matthew Talbot Hostel twice per week via the services of some volunteers from the Catholic Parish at St Ives who pick up the bread and drop it off to Matt Talbot Hostel.. Another charity taking advantage of this opportunity has had to withdraw which means bread is now available for Matthew Talbot on two additional days each week. The team needs a small number of additional volunteers for this to happen. If you're able to commit to helping one evening a month on a regular schedule, please michael.j.hill@bigpond.com for additional details. LINDARA MARKET is coming again, just in time for Christmas. When: Saturday 3 rd December from 8am to 1:30pm Where: Lindfield Uniting Church (cnr Pacific Hwy & Provincial Road Lindfield). There are a number of our own parishioners who work with the very friendly and dedicated Uniting Church Team, every four months. The money is raised for Homeless Families assisted by the Catholic Care Team at Waitara. We would be gladly welcome anyone interested in assisting us. Malcolm Allerding Joan Stranger

15 15 (continued from page 16): huge stones in a riverbed; they may do nothing but stay still and hold their ground, but the river has to take them into account and alter its flow because of them and it s precisely this which gives a river (and a face) some character. This truth lies at the very heart of Jesus life and message. When the disciples can t fathom or accept the crucifixion, he asks them: Wasn t it necessary? Isn t there a necessary connection between the humiliation of Good Friday and the glory of Easter Sunday? Isn t there an intrinsic connection between going through a certain kind of suffering and reaching a certain kind of depth? Indeed, Jesus struggle in the Garden of Gethsemane, his asking God three times to spare him from the pain and humiliation of being crucified, was precisely his own reluctance to accept that a certain kind of depth can only be arrived at by journeying through a certain kind of humiliation. And, in his case, he wasn t just going to be picked on by the playground bully, he was going to be hung naked before the whole world. But that was the only route to Easter Sunday and he had the moral intelligence to see it. And what the crucifixion produced is moral wisdom. That s why the cross of Christ, as Rene Girard puts it, is the single most revolutionary moral event that has ever happened on this planet. What the cross of Christ does, as the gospels tell us, is rip away the veil the separates us from seeing inside the holy of holies. And our own crosses and humiliations can do that for us too. They can rip away a blindness and wake us up morally.

16 16 REFLECTING ON THIS SUNDAY S SCRIPTURES.. Therefore, stay awake! For you do not know on which day your Lord will come. MORAL INTELLIGENCE There are different ways of being intelligent, of being awake. Not everyone is bright in the same way. Some people are gifted mathematically and philosophically. That s the intelligence of an Albert Einstein, an Alfred North Whitehead, a Bill Gates. Some others are gifted with emotional intelligence. You see this, for instance, in the great novelists, the Iris Murdochs, the Anne Byatts, the John Steinbecks, and the Alice Munroes, who possess an emotional grasp of things that the greatest psychologists in the world can only envy. Then there is something that might be called practical intelligence. I saw this in some of my high school friends, young men who couldn t pass enough courses to graduate, but who are wonderfully gifted with life-skills and are the ones the rest of us lean on whenever we need to sort out our plumbing, our automobile woes, our leaking roofs, and the thousand other things that mathematics, philosophy, and literature don t equip us to handle. There is too a certain aesthetic intelligence, that unique brightness of the artist which sometimes combines with the emotional or even the mathematical (especially in the case of music) but is often an intelligence all to itself. Finally, there is still another kind of intelligence, moral intelligence. What is this? Sometimes we call it depth or wisdom or character. Whatever its name, moral intelligence is a sensitivity to the deeper contours within life. It is a certain grasp of those things which hold life together at its root & which must be respected so that life doesn t go sour, unravel, disintegrate, and turn against us. Moral intelligence intuits the imperatives innate within the DNA of life itself. It grasps the things we have do, and not just the things we like to do. It lays bare the hard-wiring inside the mystery of life and love. Where does it come from? Like other forms of intelligence, it is perhaps mainly a natural endowment, a temperament, a grace given by God as a gift to the world. But, I suspect, in most cases it is also the product of something else, namely, a certain kind of suffering and humiliation. What do I mean by that? If we look at our lives and ask ourselves: What has made us deep? What has helped us to understand the deeper things in life? If we are honest, we will have to admit that what made us deep were not our successes or achievements. These brought us glory, but not depth or character. What brought us depth and character are the very things we are often ashamed to talk about, namely, our inferiorities getting picked last on the school team, being bullied on the playground, some physical inadequacy, our mother s weight problem, our dad s alcoholism, an abuse inflicted upon us that we were powerless to stop, a slowwittedness that perpetually left us out of the inner circle, our failure to achieve what we d like to in life, a pain about our sexual orientation, an addiction we can t master, and many, many other small and big wounds and bruises that helped shape our souls. James Hillman, our generation s maverick intellectual, speaks eloquently on this. Depth, he suggests, never comes out of our successes, but only out of our inferiorities and failures. And this, he says, gives us character: Our scars are like.. (cont on page 15)
