LIVING THE EUCHARIST THE THIRD SUNDAY OF LENT 4 The AmazingWork of the Holy Spirit in the Liturgy Who makes our birth, brings all to be? Who breaks the earth, who bestirs the seas? Sets heart s desire where the wind must go? Who calls the fire? No one may know. Of all the Persons of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit is perhaps the most mysterious. Wind, breath, fire, dove? Many images of the Spirit suggest movement and freedom and life. They help us capture a sense of the Spirit as kind and gracious, yet awesome in power. Wind can be a gentle puff of fresh air or a fierce gale. Fire brings the safety of warmth and light, but it can also burn a house down. You don t play with fire! The Church in the early centuries formally defined the Holy Spirit as the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity. The Holy Spirit is not a force but a Person. Equal in majesty with the Father and the Son, the Spirit is worthy of worship. Although traces of the Holy Spirit are seen in the Bible from the beginning, it is the New Testament that reveals the Holy Spirit most fully. In John 16:7-15 Jesus promises to send the Spirit to be our advocate and guide. The Spirit continues Christ s mission on earth. The Holy Spirit is with us even now, leading and empowering us. The joint mission of the Son and the Spirit is now our mission, the Church s mission. The Catechism of the Catholic Church describes it well: The Church s mission is not an addition to that of Christ and the Holy Spirit, but is its sacrament: in her whole being and in all her members, the Church is sent to announce, bear witness, make present, and spread the mystery of the communion of the Holy Trinity (CCC 738). The Holy Spirit is always leading us into the future. The eschaton, or the last days, when Christ will come again, is the Holy Spirit s special lookout. Just as the Spirit hovered over the waters in creation, and anointed Jesus for his work of redemption, so the Holy Spirit guides the Church into the future in hope. We rightly stand in awe before the freedom of God. And we know that the Spirit blows where it will (a truth amply demonstrated in the Acts of the Apostles). Yet we also know that the Holy Spirit is trustworthy. The Spirit never contradicts the revelation given in Jesus Christ. Indeed, the Spirit leads us more deeply into that truth. Our life as Christians, in the Church, is life in the Spirit. In fact, the Spirit s presence is especially intense in the sacraments of our salvation. The Holy Spirit is active in all the sacraments. The three sacraments of initiation - Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist - make us who we are through the Spirit. From Font to Table It begins with water. The purest and clearest of liquids, water is superbly suited by nature to be the sacramental sign of God s own Spirit - cleansing, restoring, giving, and sustaining life. From the waters of creation to the waters of the baptismal font, the Holy Spirit s amazing, life-giving work is carried out through water. 11
LIVING THE EUCHARIST THE THIRD SUNDAY OF LENT 4 Anointing with oil, also a sign of the Holy Spirit, follows Baptism, when we receive the Sacrament of Confirmation. The gift of the Spirit in this sacrament strengthens us for mission, and seals the Baptism we received. Finally, the Holy Spirit is the agent of transformation who, through the words of Jesus spoken by the priest, changes bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ. In the Eucharist, the Holy Spirit transforms us too and makes us holy. From Eucharist Celebration to Everyday Life The Spirit is constantly working within us to make the Mass fruitful for us and for the world. The Holy Spirit prepares us to receive God s Word with faith. The Holy Spirit fills our hearts as we pray and sing; interceding with and for us at all times. The Holy Spirit knits us together in unity, especially during the Communion Rite, but also in the celebration as a whole. Finally, the Holy Spirit strengthens us as we are sent out to live the mission of the Church. We profess faith in the Holy Spirit in the Creed at Mass, yet our faith in the Holy Spirit is perhaps never better expressed than when we are obedient to the Spirit s promptings in our everyday lives. Discerning the Spirit, responding to the Spirit, and rejoicing in the Spirit are indispensable movements of the Christian life. We learn how to discern and respond to the Spirit through evangelization and catechesis, but we also develop a taste for this indeed, a flair for this by the way we worship. How do we know what is good? What to pray for? How to thank God? How to praise him? The Spirit teaches us these things through the prayer of the Church. Reflect Do you ever think of your heart as needing to be prepared to receive the Word of God at Sunday Mass? Boredom, restlessness, and distractions are not something we can simply dismiss or get rid of by force of will power, all on our own. We need the Holy Spirit. Act Listen for the promptings of the Holy Spirit within you this week. It may be that you will be faced with a moral decision, or an unexpected opportunity for doing good, or a crisis you need to manage. Listen, and then act, according to the Spirit. Notice the outcome, for yourself and others. Next Sunday, when you return to the Eucharist, bring your gratitude. Pray Spirit of God, thank you for your amazing work in all the sacraments, but especially in the Eucharist. You enable us to pray, to worship, and to embrace the truth of Jesus Christ. Open our hearts to the ongoing work you wish to accomplish in us, and empower us for our mission in the world.

YOUTH GROUP LENTEN SOUP NIGHT: A WORD OF HEARTFELT THANKS. On behalf of St. Luke Youth Group, Fr. Peter, and all its leaders, heartfelt thanks for your generosity, fellowship, and participation in the St. Luke Youth Group Lenten Soup Night on Saturday, March 3 rd. It was amazingly successful with all the different kinds of soups, desserts, and breads. Many were enjoying the different flavors of cuisine. But most importantly, to see the fellowship around the tables in conversation, enjoying the soups and goodies, and enjoying each other s company. We had our parishioners, friends from the neighborhood, and of course friends from St. Fidelis s Parish. It was a beautiful time to break bread and recline at table together during this season of Lent. Through the generosity of all of your good hearts, we are able to offer $631.00 to St. Fidelis s Food Pantry, a donation to feed the poor. Many people each day go without a piece of bread to eat. It is through your generous hearts and kindness that we are able to do such a great act of charity, especially during this season of Lent. A BIG THANK YOU! I want to especially thank all those who made a pot of soup. The soups were enjoyed by all. Also, a word of thanks to all our committed and loving Youth Group Leaders in assisting and planning tireless to this event and for all our Youth Group events. God bless all of you for your service to our Youth. A BIG THANK YOU goes to all our young people who are always willing to serve with a smile and say, thank you. Their willing spirit to serve and care for others is a great example to all of us. To all the parents who were present, who donated toward this event, and allowed us to enjoy those goodies. Your presence and time to help was greatly appreciated. Thank you! Finally, a BIG THANK YOU to all who were present. Your presence made all the difference and our youth greatly appreciated your company. ***A special note of information- Most of you probably are not aware of what happens to the left-over soupswell, they are given to the Missionary Sisters of Charity to feed the homeless. John, and David Ho-parishioners of St. Luke always volunteer to deliver the soups to the sisters. Thank you, John and David, for your ministry 13
