5 Catechesis on the Lord s Prayer General Audience Wednesday, 9 January 2019 O n the Our Father ; we see Jesus as a prayerful man. Jesus prays. In Luke s narrative, for example, the episode of the Transfiguration springs from a moment of prayer. It says this: And as he was praying, the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became dazzling white (9:29). But each step in Jesus life is as if gently propelled by the breath of the Holy Spirit who guides him in every action. Jesus prays in the baptism on the Jordan; he dialogues with the Father before taking the most important decisions; he often withdraws in solitude to pray; he intercedes for Peter who will soon deny him. He says: Simon, Simon, behold, Satan demanded to have you that he might sift you like wheat, but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail (22:31-32). This is comforting: to know that Jesus prays for us, prays for me, for each one of us so that our faith will not fail. And this is true. But Father, does he still do so? He still does so before the Father. Jesus prays for me. Each one of us can say so. And we can also say to Jesus: You are praying for me; continue to pray because I am in need of it. In this way: courageous. Even the Messiah s death is immersed in a climate of prayer, such that the hours of the Passion seem characterized by a surprising calm: Jesus consoles the women, prays for his crucifiers, promises heaven to the good thief and he breathes his last breath, saying: Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit! (23:46). Jesus prayer seems to allay the most violent emotions, the desire for vendetta and revenge; it reconciles man with his fierce enemy, reconciles man with this enemy, which is death. It is also in the Gospel of Luke that we find the request, expressed by one of the disciples, to be able to be taught to pray by Jesus himself: And it says this: Lord, teach us to pray (11:1). They saw him praying. Teach us we too can say to the Lord Lord, you are praying for me, I know, but teach me how to pray so that I too can pray. This request, Lord, teach us to pray generates a rather lengthy lesson, through which Jesus explains to his followers with which words and which sentiments they must address God. The first part of this lesson is precisely the Our Father. Pray thus: Father, Who art in Heaven. Father : that word which is so beautiful to say. We can always remain in prayer with that word alone: Father. And to feel that we have a father: not a master, nor a step-father. No: a father. A Christian addresses God first of all by calling Him Father. Marian Reflection Listen: From Mary we learn to surrender to God's Will in all things. From Mary we learn to trust even when all hope seems gone. From Mary we learn to love Christ her Son and the Son of God. ~Pope St. John Paul II Ponder: Do I surrender to God like Mary? Do I trust God remains with me always? Do I love fully? If not, where do I turn to grow as a Christian disciple? Respond: Father, help me to follow you as perfectly as Mary. In Greek, a common language of the New Testament writers, the word for father translates as nourisher, protector, or upholder. Questions of the Week Theme: Grace is God s free gift to us. Breaking Open the Word Suggested text for faith sharing: Today s Gospel Step One: Listen to the Word As you hear this reading, what words or phrases strike you? What in this reading touches your heart? What lingers in your memory? Step Two: Look into Your Life Question for Children: What is one special gift that God has given to you to share with your friends or classmates? Question for Youth: Jesus got his start in ministry through the urging of his mother. Who urges you to pray, go to Church, and do good works? Question for Adults: God fills each of us with grace (miracles) and gifts, what is one grace (miracle) or gift that you have shared with your family?

7 OUR PARISH Christ, Our Savior In today s Gospel, St John tells us the events that happened in Cana when Christ and His Mother had been invited to a wedding. Mary, out of compassion and in Faith, told Jesus that they had run out of wine. She told the waiters to do whatever He said which showed great faith and teaches us that Mary was always open to God s will and had true faith. Jesus revealed His Glory by changing water into wine. That helped to save the day, and the couple, from embarrassment. But it is much more than that. Jesus is proclaiming that He came to make all things better, to transform all things by a new covenant of Grace. New Parish App Coming Soon! DISTRIBUTION OF HOLY COMMUNION The Office of Worship has asked us to inform all parishioners that they are monitoring the California Department of Public Health s website for flu precautions. Bishop Soto may consider suspending reception of the Blessed Sacrament via the chalice if/ when the report shows that the influenza-like illnesses exceed the epidemic threshold. We have not reached that level yet. In the meantime, everyone should take care and be prudent about receiving the Blood of Christ and making contact with others during the sign of peace. Thank you! In the coming weeks Our Lady of the Assumption will launch our own app for iphone and Android smart phones. This will allow us to better communicate with you throughout the week and keep you updated with relevant parish news or updates. The app is very well designed and very intuitive. It will be a great resource for parishioners by providing daily Mass readings, Catholic news and prayers, convenient prayer and Confession reminders, our bulletins and more. We hope for our new app to be a tool for fostering stronger parish life at Our Lady of the Assumption and better engaging the New Evangelization. WE WARMLY AND PRAYERFULY WELCOME OUR NEW PARISHIONERS! Mr. & Mrs. Kellen Sinclair & Family Mr. Bill Bramer Mr. & Mrs. Peter Foucault Ms. Sherri Radosevich Welcome one another, then, as Christ welcomed you, for the glory of God.
