MAY 6, 2018 3 INTRODUCTION TO THE LITURGY OF THE DAY Last week the word remain was repeated over and over in the second reading and the Gospel. This week the word is love. In both his first letter and his Gospel, John writes love one another. It is a command to all Jesus disciples, from the apostles at the Last Supper to all of us gathered around the table of the Lord today. To love each other as we are loved by God is what we are all called to do. MARIAN FEASTS IN MAY AT SMDLP May is a month dedicated to Mary, the mother of Jesus. It s also the month of Mother s Day. Catholics traditionally have May Crownings, when crowns of roses adorn a statue of Mary, and boys and girls who just made their First Holy Communion wear the same outfits for the occasion. Catholics sing Marian hymns, and in some places, outdoor processions take place; a statue of Mary is carried through the streets. May 13, Mother s Day, is the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima (when Mary appeared to three shepherd children in Portugal, 1917) and May 31 is the Feast of the Visitation (when Mary went to see her cousin Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist). At Santa Maria, we will have May crownings and the investiture of the brown scapular at the 5:00 Mass on May 5 and the 11:30 Mass on May 6. First Holy Communion is scheduled for next weekend, Mother s Day and the Feast of the Assumption at the 5:00 Mass and the 11:30 Mass. Check with children to see which Mass is theirs. Our Children s Choir will also provide the music for both the First Communion Masses. MAY Month of the Blessed Virgin Mary DO YOU KNOW WHY..water is used to dilute wine before it is consecrated? The use of water in the wine has been the source of a lot of questions over the centuries. Initially, it was simply the action of preparing the wine for use. No civilized person, certainly no free person, would ever think of drinking wine at full strength. It was always diluted with water. Over the centuries many meanings have been associated with this gesture: it has been thought of as a sign of the two natures in one Christ by some and by others to be a reminder of the blood and water that flowed from the side of Christ. In the end, it is what it is: a custom. GIRM 142, ION 107

Major feature films such The Passion of the Christ and Risen, and books such as Bill O'Reilly's Killing Jesus, raise many questions about one of the greatest controversies in history--what really happened to the crucified body of Jesus of Nazareth? Using a popular question-and-answer format, this book examines the historical evidence concerning the fate of Jesus. Did Jesus really die on the Cross? If so, what became of his body? Was it stolen? Misplaced? Is the Resurrection a cleverly devised plot to found a new religion? Did the disciples of Jesus hallucinate? Is the Resurrection of Jesus a myth developed decades later, after the original disciples' experience of Jesus was distorted by a subsequent generation? Or did Jesus rise from the dead, as he promised and as his disciples came to believe and sacrifice their lives to proclaim? Carl Olson carefully weighs the evidence with in-depth analysis. Whether you are a believer, a skeptic, or something in between, be prepared to have your thinking challenged by this provocative and insightful book.
