Wellstreams Living Waters for the Journey in Faith By Sister Lauretta Leipzig ALL YOU NEED IS FAITHFULNESS I d like to begin with a story that Rachel Remen told in her book, My Grandfather s Blessings. Grandfather gifted Rachel with a little paper cup. If you promise to put some water in the cup every day, something may happen, he told her. Four year old Rachel promised but as the days went by and nothing changed, it got harder and harder for her to remember to put water in the cup. Sometimes, she didn t remember until late at night when she was very tired. And so this simple chore became increasingly more difficult to carry out. She pleaded with her grandfather to be able to stop. Grandfather simply told her, Every day! Then one morning, there were two little green leaves that had not been there the night before! Rachel learned that life is everywhere, hidden in the most ordinary and unlikely places and all it needs is water! No, said Grandfather, all it needs is your faithfulness. Faithfulness! All of God s creation depends on faithfulness. We see animals beginning their annual migrations and periodic breeding cycles at certain times because nature s laws are firm. Plants send forth seeds and saplings similarly according to God s faithfulness. Only humans often have a difficult time exercising faithfulness to God. We might say that faithfulness should be the hallmark of all our relationships, most of all in the relationship we have with our God. What does it mean to be a faithful person? It simply means to be trustworthy, honest or reliable. Our faithfulness to God should not be an option we choose. God not only desires men and women who are ready and willing to consistently carry out his will; God expects us to be faithful to him. Granted, everyone does not have the same opportunities in life. Nor do we all have the same abilities. But we all have something. We have the capacity to be faithful in our own individual situations of life. The apostle Paul refers to faithfulness as the gift of the Holy Spirit. He reminds us that the Spirit works in every believer s heart and mind at various times even though each life is unique and individual circumstances are unparalleled. Over time, with practice, we can develop this God-like trait of faithfulness that leads us to dependably act as God would act. We have examples of faithfulness in many of the greats who have gone before us. Think of Abraham who was asked to surrender his only son. He set out to obey God even when faithfulness would have brought him great sacrifice. Moses, an imperfect man like ourselves who made notable mistakes, tried to do God s will the best he could, and God recognized his faithfulness. Also, as we look at the lives of the saints, we see how faithfulness directed these holy people and moved them to a desire to be faithful in carrying out God s plan for their lives. Finally, we can follow Jesus as the supreme example of faithfulness. Never wavering from the desire to accomplish his Father s will and always doing that for which he came to earth, his faithfulness to the Father was clearly evident when he cried out the words Not my will but thine be done in the Garden of Gethsemane. But, I m sure, we all realize that a strong sense of faithfulness does not just happen. We grow into greater and greater faithfulness as we journey along in life, not waiting for life s big challenges but beginning with life s little requirements. Faithfulness grows through discipline and practice in preparation for those greater challenges along the way. It requires looking honestly at what s important and what s not important in our lives, what s significant versus what s trivial, thinking about how we are called to give our lives away to others rather than keep them for ourselves. In essence, we give serious thought to what we do with what we have. Then, being trustworthy becomes a prime characteristic in all our dealings, and our strength lies in that quality. We then can see it operating within our circle of family, with our friends, at work and in financial dealings and in every area of our lives all integral to our faithfulness to God. God actively looks for faithfulness. It is one of the qualities on which God will judge us. Mother Teresa had the perfect words for this. She said, God does not require that we be successful, only that we be faithful. Matthew reminded us that those who strove to carry out God s will were rewarded with the words, Well done, good and faithful servant You have been faithful over a few things I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of the Lord. In closing let us ask ourselves: Is faithfulness to God a priority in my life? Or an obstacle? Are there areas in my life where I am not completely faithful to God? Do I have difficulty trusting in God, his love, his forgiveness and promises? What do I need to change if I am to be a more faithful person? 2 Saint Anne Church April 10, 2016 stannebarrington.org

These rituals have their origins in Jesus and the apostles and of course, aspects of them are much more ancient than that. Bread and wine, meal sharing, water, cleansing, bathing, oil for anointing and healing, these realities have been part of human culture for tens of thousands of years as have public worship, singing together, candle light and fire. We have the treasury of the sacred scriptures that are part of the teaching equipment of the sacraments too, and every week and at every celebration of every sacrament, there is both the formal proclamation of scripture (the readings) and the informal use of scripture in dialogues and prayers ( the Lord be with you, peace be with you, Lord, have mercy and so on.) One way I used to do this when I was more often and more formally doing mystagogical catechesis when I trained people about how to work with catechumens and candidates, as well as with the newly baptized and the rest of us, was to keep asking questions about the signs and symbols used in the sacraments. For instance, after Ash Wednesday, I might ask, If those ashes you were wearing could speak, what would they be saying to you about your life? Or about the Mass, one might ask, What does sharing a meal with all kinds of people, friends, strangers, maybe even rivals, teach me about who God is? Who Christ is? What the Church is? Or What are some of the ways we experience water as refreshment in life? As cleansing? As destroying? About every sacrament, many, many questions can be meditated upon and discussed. When we add the wisdom of the scripture and the new way of life that it calls us to when we hear it, not to mention the fact that we ve grown and changed since the last time we heard the same scripture, well, there is really an infinite amount of reflection on the mysteries or mystagogy that we can do after any experience of a sacrament together. Do you begin to see how mystagogy is a lifelong project for every Christian? Do you begin to see why catechumens begin to experience this kind of catechesis from the very moment they become catechumens, and why they are dismissed every Sunday to reflect on gathering, praying, singing and listening to the word of God? For them, it becomes a habit, or we hope it does. For cradle Catholics, it may take a change of behavior and an act of the will to make us get into the habit of reflecting on the mysteries in which we participate and which we perhaps take too much for granted. This Easter might be a good time to get into that habit and jump into depths of God s love and the Way of Jesus that invites us into a new empire based upon love and service of neighbor.

Faith Formation and Education Remember to pick me up early; remember to take the dog to the vet; remember that I have a meeting Tuesday evening; remember to sign me up for dance class. So much to remember, and our world continues to add to the list on a daily basis. Keeping it all straight there s an app for that! God asks us to remember the really important things: kindness, care, personal interaction, concern, mercy. The busyness of our world can cause us to lead with our heads, moving through the checklist of the day. God asks us to lead with our hearts; something worth remembering. MEN OF ACTION AND CONTEMPLATION DAY OF HOSPITALITY WITH VETERANS On Saturday, April 2nd, the following members of the group of MAC (Men of Action and Contemplation), Paul Schnepf, Bill McSorley, Jim Proebstle, Tom Pyra and Steve Raseman, hosted approximately 30 veterans at the James A. Lovell VA Hospital in Northern Chicago to a game day of snacks, cards, dominoes, cribbage, Trivial Pursuit and other board games. Veterans who stay at the hospital often are suffering due to Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, alcoholism and homelessness. These are generally byproducts of the service and sacrifice they have made for the United States. The Lovell Center houses 300 vets on a temporary and permanent basis. The social break from their routine was appreciated by the vets and the MAC members alike. Please respond to a survey designed to help Archbishop Cupich and the Archdiocese better understand the perspectives of Catholics across Cook and Lake Counties. The survey is available at www.archchicago.org/renew. Saint Anne Church April 10, 2016 stannebarrington.org 9

Sharing the Living Story By Clem Aseron (A) Lectionary texts: http://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/041016.cfm (B) Bible texts (has verse #): http://www.usccb.org/bible/books-of-the-bible/index.cfm THIRD SUNDAY OF EASTER, 2016 (48C) First Reading: Acts of the Apostles 5:27-32, 40b-41 Responsorial Psalm: 30:2, 4, 5-6, 11-12, 13. RX = I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me. Second Reading: Revelation 5:11-14 Gospel: John 21:1-19 Please refer to (A) and (B) above when I cite verses in the commentary below. Sometime during 90-110 C.E. 1, John gathered the oral traditions of his community to write them into a gospel some 60-80 years after Jesus death and following the Roman destruction of the Temple and their dispersal of the Jewish population out of Jerusalem in 70 C.E. The Jews who followed Jesus teachings but were still part of the Jewish community were now separated (ejected?) from the midst of the Jews for definitively selfidentifying as followers of the Christ. Like the other evangelists 2, John writes less to precisely describe history than to proclaim to his community the kerygma the good news of Jesus Passion, Death and Resurrection. Scholars accept that the short chapter 21 was likely added after the apparent completion of John s gospel at chapter 20. See 21:4 where the disciples do not realize that it is Jesus who was standing on the shore despite John s two vivid descriptions at 20:19-29 of the same disciples who so intimately experience the risen Lord that they come to belief! Note the parallel in Chapter 21 to the story of the Beloved Disciple (BD) and Peter at the tomb in 20. In both stories, it is Peter who goes ahead to get there first; it is the BD who understands what it is he is seeing and so believes that Jesus had risen. This disciple is named the BD because he is noted as being particularly favored by Jesus. He reclines at the table next to Jesus, resting his head on his bosom (13:23); he finds out details about the betrayer that the leader, Peter, does not know (13:25 ); Peter has to get his information from the BD (13:24). So, the BD seems to be held in higher esteem than Peter. At 10:1-18, John s Jesus describes that the shepherd enters by the door (v.2). Also, the gatekeeper confirms the identity of the shepherd by saying, He who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. To him, the gatekeeper opens. The shepherd is the one who leads the sheep in and out (vv.3-4). This is the same language John uses to describe the BD during the Passion in chapter 18. After Jesus was arrested, he was taken to the high priest and the BD, known to the high priest, enters with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest but Peter was standing outside the gate. Then the other disciple (the BD), who was known to the high priest, went out, spoke to the woman who guarded the gate and brought Peter in (v.16). So, the BD is the like a noble shepherd: he enters by the door; the gatekeeper (the woman) recognizes him; he leads the sheep in. Peter again is subordinate; he is not yet the shepherd (the leader); he is one of the sheep. The threefold test of Peter, starting at 21:15, is the turning point. This is the restoration of Peter to honor after his threefold denial at 18:15. Recall that during the Last Supper (13:31), the confident 16 Saint Anne Church April 10, 2016 stannebarrington.org

Sharing the Living Story (cocky?) Peter had exclaimed that he could certainly follow Jesus even to laying down his life for Jesus. In the very next breath, Jesus predicts Peter s denials. Could Jesus have misinterpreted Peter s heart? At v.15, in this postresurrection pericope 3, Peter, humbly, three times admits that the Lord, after all, does know his heart; now, Peter can follow him (v.19). Note, too, that in vv.15-19, John interweaves the tradition of Jesus as the Good Shepherd (10:11) with the tradition of Peter as leader. Jesus, remember, emphasized that it was by his own choice that he would lay down his life for his sheep (10:18). (Recall that Peter had boasted at the Last Supper that he himself would willingly lay down his life for Jesus.) Jesus, who is about to leave his sheep, first emphasizes the necessity of love, and then he increases Peter s honor by commissioning him as shepherd but note that the sheep remain Jesus s sheep! Peter is completely reinstated; he is leader. Moreover, Peter will have the chance to lay down his life. As a younger man, Peter could go where he wanted, dress as he wanted (21:18). Now, in his mature years, someone else would dress him, lead him where he didn t want to go and he would stretch out his hands on a cross. Recall that this gospel is written after Peter had asked to be put to death upside down on a cross. Peter had indeed followed him (v19b). At the Easter Vigil, we initiate into the Roman Catholic tradition, people whom we have instructed, formed and companioned for a year or more. During seven weeks of the Easter season, we and these new Catholics are in the period of mystagogy when we try to unpack the meaning of our experiences during Holy Week and those which will come during the Easter season. So What? Each year, the Church retells these post-resurrection appearances of Jesus to the disciples that point them unmistakably toward the attitudes and behavior that is expected of them. This is not a mere recounting. How do we search for lessons for ourselves in these stories; can we turn to one another to strengthen the solidarity as a community centered on the risen Lord? It is within that community that we will come to realize that we are enabled to change the world around us.
