TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Surprisingly, the church moved very slowly in claiming marriage as a focus of attention and care. Nearly

everywhere in the Roman world, citizens agreed on how to celebrate marriage. Consent of the man and woman is what made a marriage valid in the eyes of the law, and although there was a traditional ceremony, it was home‑based and

optional. The ceremony was for showing the social status of the families involved (the procession ideally detoured

through crowds), and for reminding the woman of her legal transfer from her father’s control to her husband’s. The “big moment” of the ceremony had nothing to do with vows, but with the bride’s donning the yellow veil with red highlights that was the daily wear of married women. A wedding feast

included soothsayers and animal sacrifice to the new household’s gods. Christians found that distasteful, of

course, but since marriage was a family matter, they could edit things out. The church was comfortable with this, and sometimes recommended that the couple seek the advice of

the bishop. His permission was only required for the marriage of a cleric, or for a marriage Rome didn’t

recognize, such as between a free woman and a slave. There was no blessing, no liturgy, no priest. Christians followed the customs of the day, but they knew that custom and

relationships were transformed from within themselves by the fact of their baptism. Outwardly, Christians married

exactly as their pagan neighbors, but they certainly invested the usual gestures with a dynamic sense of Christ’s

presence.

THE SHIP OF THE

CHURCH

the waves of life’s different stresses. Our duty is not to abandon ship, but to keep her on her course.

—St. Boniface

PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL

Today we celebrate one of the tenets of our creed: that the Lord ascended into heaven. From Mark’s Gospel we hear the final words Jesus spoke to his disciples shortly before he ascended into heaven. Those were

words of commissioning, no less real for us today than they were to the disciples

then. We are called to “proclaim the gospel to every creature.” For the vast majority of us, this means that we proclaim the gospel by the witness of our everyday lives. Treating others with dignity and respect, providing for

those less fortunate than ourselves, being good stewards of the many gifts showered on us, coming together as God’s family in worship and praise—these are all signs that the

gospel has taken root in our lives. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE

Despue s de los eventos del Viernes Santo los discí pulos se encerraron en el Cena culo porque te‑ní an mucho miedo. Estaban precisamente ahí , don‑de habí an celebrado la U ltima Cena con Jesu s. Se‑gu n los relatos que nos presentan los evangelios, Jesu s se les aparecerí a en ese mismo lugar. De he‑cho, cuarenta dí as despue s de su muerte, Jesu s as‑cendio al cielo. Luego de que Jesu s ascendiera al cie‑lo, los discí pulos se quedaron ato nitos viendo hacia arriba. El famoso “Himno a la alegrí a” nos invita a ver “ma s alla de las estrellas”. Sin embargo, los a n‑geles le dicen a los seguidores de Cristo que dejen de ver las nubes y se pongan a trabajar (Hechos

1:11).

Al regresar a su Padre, Jesucristo envio su Espí ‑ritu sobre la comunidad cristiana primitiva hacie n‑dolos testigos de su resurreccio n. De esta manera dieron inicio a la cancio n que dice: “Que esperan un nuevo dí a”, y esperando van cantado el mensaje de aquel que estando en el cielo puede vivir en el cora‑

zo n de los que le aman.

PROCLAMA EL EVANGELIO

Hoy celebramos uno de los dog‑mas de nuestro Credo: que el Sen or ascendio a los cielos. Del Evangelio de san Marcos escuchamos las u lti‑mas palabras que Jesu s les dirigio a sus discí pulos momentos antes de ascender a los cielos. Fueron pala‑bras con un encargo, no menos real para nosotros que para los discí pulos de entonces. Jesu s nos encarga: “Vayan por todo el mundo y prediquen el Evangelio a toda criatura”. Para la gran mayorí a de nosotros, esto significa que procla‑mamos el Evangelio con el testimonio de nuestra vida dia‑ria. Cuando tratamos a otros con dignidad y respeto, ayuda‑mos a los menos afortunados que nosotros, actuamos co‑rresponsablemente con los muchos dones que hemos reci‑bido, y nos reunimos como familia de Dios para adorar y alabar al Padre –todas estas son sen ales de que el Evangelio ha echado raí ces en nuestras vidas.

LA BARCA DE LA IGLESIA

La Iglesia es como una gran barca combatida por las olas de los vendavales de la vida. Nues‑tro deber es no abandonarla sino mantenerla en su curso.—San Bonifacio
