A Word From Pope Francis: In Jesus his Son, God has come
down among us. He took flesh and showed his solidarity with
humanity in all things but sin…. He saw and embraced all of
creation. But he did more than just see; he touched people’s
lives, he spoke to them, helped them and showed kindness to
those in need. —World Day of Peace, January 1, 2016

receive a free directory when completed.

[Jesus said,] “I am the living bread that came
down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will
live forever.” John 6:51
Marc Chagall, a painter in the late last century and one of the favorites of
Pope Francis, shows Jesus’ crucifixion as a global mystery. It is not just
an event in the past. Jesus is still coming down among the throngs of
needy souls of the modern day, laying down his life and accompanying
them in their sufferings.
The Gospel of John uses this term of “coming down” to take up the theme
of the Incarnation. Jesus left his heavenly home and came down among
us. He lowered himself to dirty his feet along the tortuous routes on which
humanity travels. He is not unapproachable, far from the sufferings of his
followers, but has become like them in all things but sin. He knows the
hunger and needs of his people.
This is nothing new for God. He came down to walk in the Garden with
Adam and Eve. He came down to see the people building the Tower of
Babel. He came down to Moses in the burning bush and in giving the Ten
Commandments. And he came down to console and feed Elijah, who was
despairing of his life. He gave Elijah food for his journey, strengthening
him to travel in the desert. In the Eucharist, Jesus comes down to you
today to carry your burdens and give you his life. He urges us to get up,
eat. He is the Living Bread come down from heaven that, if we unite with
him in holy Communion, he will give us his divine force and we will live
eternally with him.

What does doxology mean?
The verses of a popular gospel song, “How Can I Keep From Singing,” speak of our struggle with sorrow and
darkness, and the ultimate joy we have knowing “Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, / How can I keep
from singing?” The songwriter joyfully sings out because of God’s love; it’s a doxology of praise.
Doxology, “a glorious utterance,” is a prayer the Church uses to give God praise. We have countless examples
in Scripture, such as the psalms, which by their nature give God rightful praise. The Sanctus acclamation is
another example. Taken from Isaiah 6, it directs our focus to praising God for his power and might. On
Christmas night we sing “Glory to God in the highest,” a doxology from the angels. The eucharistic prayers
end with a doxology to the Trinity showing how “the Holy Spirit who thus awakens the memory of the
Church then inspires thanksgiving and praise (doxology),” Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1103.
We use doxologies to emphasize our worship of God, acknowledging his rightful praise. Doxologies are part
of major liturgical prayers such as the Eucharistic prayers, the communion rite where we add a doxology
following the Our Father. We also add doxologies to our personal prayers. The rosary contains a well-known
doxology called the Gloria Patri, a prayer praising the eternal nature and love of the Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit.
