Our Lady of Good Counsel Parish • 2 The Dedication of the Lateran Basilica In case you dozed off during the homily, the Lateran Basilica is a church in Rome that is the official seat of the pope, the bishop of Rome. It is the equivalent of the cathedral of a diocese. So why do we celebrate the dedication of a church built long ago and far away? Looking at the readings for this feast, we see that one thing they all have in common is the temple. The first reading and the Gospel mention the temple in Jerusalem; in the second reading St. Paul calls the body a temple of God. Let's see what these references say about our lives. The reading from Ezekiel describes the image of water flowing from the temple. Along its banks are trees with leaves that never fade, fruit that is always fresh (47:12). That water can remind us of Jesus' words in John 4:10-14: He is the source of living water; whoever drinks it will never thirst. We come to church each week to be fed with Jesus' words in the scriptures and with his Body and Blood in the Eucharist. So the temple symbolizes the Source of all we need to live as Christians. In the reading from Corinthians, Paul uses two images. First, he calls us a building with Christ as our foundation. Just as a solid foundation is necessary to build a hospital, school, church, etc., so we can do much with our lives if they are built on faith in Jesus. Second, he calls us temples of God because we also have the Holy Spirit dwelling in us. As we build our lives on Christ, we do so not with our own efforts, but with the guidance and inspiration of the Spirit who lives in us. In the Gospel, Jesus also refers to the temple as his body. So in a way he makes a connection between himself and the temple. The temple was considered the place of God's presence on earth. But now Jesus is that Presence--he is God's Son. So we can celebrate the dedication of a church, St. John Lateran or our parish church, because they are signs of God's presence in our lives. As disciples of Jesus, we too can be signs of God's love for each other. La Dedicación de la Basílica de Letrán En caso de que se quedó dormido durante la homilía, la Basílica de Letrán es una iglesia en Roma que es la sede oficial del Papa, el obispo de Roma. Es el equivalente de la Catedral una Diócesis. Entonces, ¿por qué celebramos la dedicación de una iglesia construida hace mucho tiempo y muy lejos? En cuanto a las lecturas de esta fiesta, vemos que todos tienen una cosa en común, que es el templo. La primera lectura y el Evangelio mencionan el templo de Jerusalén; en la segunda lectura St. Paul llama al cuerpo un templo de Dios. Veamos lo que dicen estas referencias sobre de nuestras vidas. La lectura de Ezequiel describe la imagen del agua que fluye del templo. A lo largo de sus orillas hay árboles con hojas que nunca se desvanecen, la fruta que es siempre fresca (47:12). Que el agua nos puede recordar las palabras de Jesús en Juan 4: 10-14: Él es la fuente de agua viva; el que beba nunca volverá a tener sed. Venimos a la iglesia cada semana para ser alimentado con las palabras de Jesús en las Escrituras y con su Cuerpo y su Sangre en la Eucaristía. Así que el templo simboliza la fuente de todo lo que necesitamos para vivir como cristianos. En la lectura de Corintios, Pablo usa dos imágenes. En primer lugar, él nos indica que somos la casa que Dios edifica. Del mismo modo que es necesaria una base sólida para construir un hospital, la escuela, la iglesia, etc., por lo que podemos hacer mucho más con nuestras vidas si se basan en la fe en Jesús. En segundo lugar, él nos llama templos de Dios, porque también tenemos el Espíritu Santo que viviendo en nosotros. A medida que construimos nuestra vida en Cristo, no hacemos con nuestros propios esfuerzos, pero con la guía e inspiración del Espíritu que vive en nosotros. En el Evangelio, Jesús se refiere también al templo como su cuerpo. Así que en cierto modo hace una conexión entre él y el templo. El templo era considerado como el lugar de la presencia de Dios en la tierra. Pero ahora Jesús es esa Presencia - él es el Hijo de Dios. Así que podemos celebrar la dedicación de una iglesia, San Juan de Letrán o nuestra iglesia parroquial, ya que son signos de la presencia de Dios en nuestras vidas. Como discípulos de Jesús, también nosotros podemos ser signos del amor de Dios unos a otros. Can We Be Cremated? By Bishop Emeritus Thomas G. Doran ¿Podemos ser cremados? Por el Obispo Emérito Thomas G. Doran We are taught that our bodies, our physical bodies, are temples of the Holy Spirit and the Church has always preferred sepulture, or burial, as being the most fitting way of putting to rest our human remains. But if there are people who prefer cremation for any acceptable reason, that is quite permitted. Se nos enseña que nuestros cuerpos físicos, son templos del Espíritu Santo y la Iglesia siempre ha preferido el entierro, como la forma más apropiada para poner a descansar nuestros restos humanos. Pero si hay personas que prefieren la cremación por cualquier razón aceptable, todo está permitido. In the Diocese of Rockford there are certain norms for Catholic funerals just as there are liturgical norms for baptism, marriage, ordination, etc. These norms of course, flow from our Catholic faith and teaching. In this diocese, when the choice has been made to cremate a body, it is recommended that the cremation take place after the Funeral Liturgy followed by the proper disposition of the remains according to the norms of the Church, that is, burial in a grave, or entombment in a mausoleum or columbarium. If cremation takes place before the Funeral Liturgy, a burial place in a grave, or entombment in a mausoleum or columbarium for the cremated remains must be established in order to celebrate the Funeral Liturgy in the Church. You can read more about cremation in your Catechism of the Catholic Church (2301) and find all the corresponding diocesan norms at http://www.rockforddiocese.org/divineworship En la Diócesis de Rockford hay ciertas normas para los funerales Católicos, al igual que existen las normas litúrgicas para el bautismo, el matrimonio, la ordenación, etc. Estas normas, por supuesto, surgen de nuestra fe y enseñanza católica. En esta diócesis, cuando la elección se ha hecho para cremar un cuerpo, se recomienda que la cremación se realice después de la liturgia fúnebre seguido por la disposición apropiada de los restos de acuerdo con las normas de la Iglesia, es decir, el entierro en una fosa, o sepultura en un mausoleo o columbario. Si la cremación se lleva a cabo antes de la liturgia fúnebre, una sepultura en una tumba o en un mausoleo o columbario de la cremación debe establecerse con el fin de celebrar el funeral en la Iglesia.

His newest work is a stunning achievement: a personal guided tour of the vast 'cathedral' that is the Catholic Church. Drawing on Scripture, tradition, history, art, literature, and the lives of the saints, Catholicism is written with the eloquence of a poet and the clarity of a teacher who knows how to communicate. If you are searching for answers to questions about the many mysteries of the Catholic faith, then look no further...” --Brant Pitre author This and other Bargain Books will be available for sale at the next Resource Center Ministry book/CD Sale on December 6/7.

Vocations Corner by Rev. Keith Romke The Advice of a Mother Ever since I was a little kid, I have loved attempting to do things on my own! From time to time this has turned out well, on some other occasions it has allowed me to get by, but more often than not it has gotten me into all kinds of trouble. The funny thing is though, that no matter how many times this strategy has yielded poor results, I just keep on going back to it again and again. Usually, there is one thing that can finally get me to snap out of this cycle and to do what is actually best for me: listening to the advice of my Mother! This same reality is even more true when it comes to living out our spiritual lives. I can try on my own to figure things out, but when it’s all said and done, the goodness of God’s plan is just way too big for my finite and limited mind to fully understand or grasp. But this doesn’t mean that any of us are without hope, because we all have a Mother that we can turn to in the midst of our struggles. Mary longs to aid us through her intercession and by her example. If we want a guaranteed way to discover God’s will for us, all we need to do is to ask her intercession and to pray according to her example: “Be it done unto me according to thy Word” and “do whatever He tells you!” 2015 Guide Book & Directory Advertising Opportunity We are in the process of updating our annual Guide Book & Directory for the Church.
