Dedication of the Basilica of
St. John Lateran in Rome
We celebrate today the Dedication of the Basilica of
St. John Lateran in Rome because it is the head and
mother church of all churches in the world. On the
façade of the basilica there is an inscription in Latin
which reads, “the mother and mistress of all churches
of Rome and the world.” One might think St. Peter’s
Basilica is the head of all the churches but in fact it is
the Basilica of St. John Lateran. Every bishop has a
cathedral and the Pope’s cathedral is the Basilica of
St. John Lateran not the Basilica of St. Peter.
You may ask “Why is the Basilica of St. John Lateran
the Pope’s cathedral and not the Basilica of St. Peter
since he lives next to St. Peter's Basilica?” History
gives us the answer. In the early centuries Christianity
was outlawed in Rome and many Christians in Rome
suffered martyrdom. The Emperor Constantine converted to Christianity and the famous Edict of Milan in
313 AD allowed Christians to practice their religion in
public. Constantine had been given the palace in Rome
that belonged to the Laterani and after his conversion
to Christianity he gave it to the Pope. The Lateran
Palace was then adapted to become a church and was
dedicated on November 9th 324 and the Pope then
lived in the Lateran Palace, as it was called, for the
next 1000 years and the basilica was his cathedral. It
was first called the Basilica of the Savior but later was
also dedicated to St. John the Baptist and St. John the
Evangelist and so it acquired the name Basilica of St.
John Lateran. When the Papacy transferred to Avignon
for about a century, the condition of the Lateran deteriorated so much that when the Papacy returned to
Rome the Pope lived in two other locations before
finally settling adjacent to St. Peter’s Basilica where he
now lives.
Perhaps we could say that the many times the Basilica
suffered destruction of some kind is a symbol of the
attacks on the Church and the hatred of some for the
Church. The Basilica was attacked by the Vandals
twice in 408 and 455. It was almost totally destroyed
by an earthquake in 896 and it was destroyed by fire
in 1308 and 1360. The Basilica is visited by huge
numbers of pilgrims every year also symbolizing the
love of so many people for the Church.
Those who visit the Basilica on pilgrimage visit it not
just because it is the head of all churches and the
Pope’s cathedral. The wooden altar on which St. Peter
celebrated Mass while in Rome is inside the main altar.
The heads of Sts. Peter and Paul were once believed
to be inside busts above the main altar. Part of the
table on which the Last Supper was celebrated is said
to be behind a bronze depiction of the Last Supper. At
one time the Holy Stairs which is nearby was also in
the Lateran, the stairs in Pilate’s house on which Jesus
is said to have walked during his trial. It is a marble
stairs and is now covered with wood to protect it. Pilgrims
ascend the stairs on their knees contemplating Jesus’
Passion and on the way up drops of blood may be seen
on the marble stairs beneath protective glass. The
stairs was brought to Rome by Constantine’s mother
St. Helena.
Celebrating the dedication of the Pope’s cathedral
today shows our unity with the Pope and our love and
respect for him. Not only that, but it shows that we are
united with each other in the Church. St. Paul described
this unity in the Church in his first letter to the
Corinthians as the Body of Christ.
For as with the human body which is a unity although
it has many parts – all the parts of the body, though
many, still making up one single body – so it is with
Christ. We were baptized into one body in a single
Spirit, Jews as well as Greeks, slaves as well as free
men, and we were all given the same Spirit to drink. (1
Cor 12:12-13))Now Christ’s body is yourselves, each
of you with a part to play in the whole. (1 Cor 12:27)
In our first reading today we heard Ezekiel’s vision of a
river flowing from the Temple in Jerusalem and bringing life everywhere it went (Ezek 47). We could see it
as a vision of the Church receiving life-giving grace
from Jesus. In the Letter to the Ephesians we read,
You are built upon the foundations of the apostles and
prophets, and Christ Jesus himself is the cornerstone.
Every structure knit together in him grows into a holy
temple in the Lord; and you too in him are being built up
into a dwelling-place of God in the Spirit. (Eph 2:19-21)
In our second reading today we have a similar idea,
“You are God’s buildingGthe foundationGis Jesus
Christ.” (1 Cor 3:9, 11) These passages from Scripture
remind us to make Jesus the foundation stone and
corner stone of our lives because there is a life-giving
river flowing from him to fill us with his grace.
As we celebrate today the dedication of the “the mother
and mistress of all churches of Rome and the world”
let us pray also for those who have got lost going
through life that they may find the Church as a true
mother and that Jesus may become the foundation
stone and corner stone of their lives.

Thank You All!
How do we start to thank the many friends, family
members and neighbors of Marilyn and myself for their
true feelings of loss and sympathy shown to our family
during this difficult time in our lives.
We would like to personally thank Father Chet for his
timely arrival at our home to anoint Marilyn with the
Sacrament of the Sick, hours before her passing. It
truly helped console Marilyn, myself and our sons.
We would especially like to express our gratitude to
Father John for his inspirational eulogy. He spoke of
Marilyn as if he had personally known her throughout
her life. (Thank You)
Also, our appreciation goes out to the Eucharistic
ministers and server: Renee Zwiefka, Kristie Harless,
Helen Helminiak, and Phil Fedder. A special thank you
to Marcy Gorney for reading the scriptures. Marcy was
one of her very close friends. To the Catholic community
choir, organist Kelly Niles and soloist Mary Filippis, we
thank you for such a beautiful job.
To the luncheon crew who worked so hard to provide
us, our family and friends with a wonderful and delicious
meal. (Thank you all)
Thank you so much Paul & Jen Kubacki and the staff

FAMILY PERSPECTIVE
As the man in today’s gospel entrusted his servants
with his money, so God has ‘entrusted’ our family to
us. Like the good servants we are expected, not to
play it safe, but to selflessly and totally invest ourselves
in each other.
Faith Formation Pre - 9th Grade
Susan Noble, Director of Faith Formation,
[email protected]
723.2619, ext. 30; During Faith Formation, ext 27

During the Season of Advent, parishioners
are invited to take part in The Giving
Tree. Gift tags are made and placed on
a tree at church. A tag is made for each
resident of the Manistee County Medical
Care Facility, for the Love INC families
who we ‘adopt’ for Christmas, and for
Toys for Tots.
Parishioners will then purchase the requested item, or
an item of their choosing, and place the gift under The
Giving Tree at church.
Each year we support The Giving Tree project in an
attempt to make someone’s Christmas a little bit brighter.
We are looking for someone, or a few someone’s, who
would be willing to head up this outreach. Please contact
Heather at 723.2529, ext. 10 for more information.
Prayer Requests
Faith Formation students and their families had a fun
night on Wednesday, October 28th to end the harvest
season with cider, donuts, apple slices & caramel dip.
Have a blessed Weekend!
Be kind to one another, compassionate, forgiving one
another as God has forgiven you in Christ.
~ Ephesians 4:32
