Sacred Space and Multipurpose Rooms SKY VIEW - April 28, 2013 ... where the Holy Sacrifice just took place? The average person does not make the same distinctions that a Catholic who works on behalf of the local parish will make. Those who are active participants in their church know liturgical etiquette. They know that even though a play is being performed in front of the altar or a movie is being projected onto a big screen just above the lectern, it does not give them the license to engage in other mundane activities such as chewing gum. But again, the ...http://catholic-skyview-tremblay.blogspot.com/2013/04/sacred-space-and-multipurpose-rooms.html
Devotion for Today: Thoughts on Eucharistic Adoration by Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen GRACE4U - April 23, 2013 ... tête-á-tête with the Lord. In those moments, one does not so much pour out written prayers, but listening takes its place. We do not say: "Listen, Lord, for Thy servant speaks," but "Speak, Lord, for Thy servant heareth." ….So the Holy Hour, quite apart from all its positive spiritual benefits, kept my feet from wandering too far. Being tethered to a tabernacle, one's rope for finding other pastures is not so long. That dim tabernacle lamp, however pale and faint, had some ...http://sandy-grace4u.blogspot.com/2013/04/devotion-for-today-thoughts-on.html

The New Testament's Teaching on Resurrection and Immortality – Benedict XVI PAYING ATTENTION TO THE SKY - April 16, 2013 ... Pauline texts especially important for our enquiry are Romans 6:1-14 and First Corinthians 15 . In the letter to the Romans, baptism is interpreted as being engrafted onto the death of Christ. By baptism we enter on a common destiny with that of Jesus and so with the death which was his fate. But that death is ordered intrinsically to the resurrection. Of necessity, then, suffering and dying with Christ means at the same time a participation in the hope of the resurrection . One permits ...http://payingattentiontothesky.com/2013/04/17/the-new-testaments-teaching-on-resurrection-and-immortality-benedict-xvi/
On Self-Absorption CATHOLIC SENSIBILITY - April 3, 2013 ... community, and with a role to play. This is original Theology of the Body: the eye sees, the hand works, the legs propel. We work with others, and the mission gets accomplished … though we often don't see how. What does this mean in a parish, especially for its pastor and ministers? I'm going to need to give that a lot of thought as I reexamine my role in my parish. In what is mostly a bookkeeping measure, my new job title will be liturgy/campus ministry. Practically I've done campus ...http://catholicsensibility.wordpress.com/2013/04/03/on-self-absorption/

CATHOLIC VISION: CELEBRATION AND HUMILITY by Fr David Bird Osb MONKS AND MERMAIDS (A BENEDICTINE BLOG) - March 9, 2013 ... is that a bad theology of liturgy that limits Christ's presence to what happens after the consecration and thus distorts the understanding of priesthood, of liturgy and of the Eucharist, has been passed on in spite of Vatican II and continues to influence good men, now as then, to do the wrong thing while thinking they are acting appropriately. The appropriate attitude of the priest is one of humble obedience, of service to Christ and the Church, all too aware, if possible, of the awesome ...http://fatherdavidbirdosb.blogspot.com/2013/03/catholic-vision-celebration-and.html
3rd Sunday of Lent, Cycle C LORD, IF YOU WILL (SUNDAYS AND SOLEMNITIES) - March 4, 2013 ... usually means that there is a greater familiarity with that person. That is why when Moses speaks to God in the Burning Bush, as we hear in our first reading; he is called twice, something that meant he was being called to an important task, since very rarely is someone's name called twice in the Bible. What's more though is that when Moses asked the name of the one who was sending him he was given a peculiar name, "I AM." It ...http://lordifyouwill.blogspot.com/2013/03/3rd-sunday-of-lent-cycle-c.html
Burning Bushes and Fig Trees — 3rd Sunday Lent 3/3/13 SISTERS OF THE HOLY FAMILY - March 4, 2013 By Sister Marietta Fahey, SHF So what is this about burning bushes and fig trees in the middle of this Lenten journey? What do they have to do with change of heart and faithfulness to the Gospel as we follow Jesus on this journey? Burning bushes: moments of surprise after which we are not the same! Moments of surprise that break into our ordinary day, or into an unbearable day when we don't know how we will find the next step, let alone take it!

The Burning Bush SHADOWS OF AUGUSTINE - March 3, 2013 The first reading at mass today was from the third chapter of Exodus: the story of how God appeared to Moses in the burning bush. My favorite depiction of the scene is from the Dreamworks film The Prince of Egypt . What I really like about this clip is the way that it seems to capture both the transcendance and the imminence of God, along with the inadequacy felt by Moses.http://shadowsofaugustine.blogspot.com/2013/03/the-burning-buh.html
The Burning Bush Reveals the Living God: A Foreshadowing the New Pentecost COMMUNIO - March 3, 2013 Moses encountered the living God. What was once hidden is now made known. Light and Love is experienced. Biblical revelation teaches that he flame Moses saw was in fact God's uncreated energies / glory . This glory of God was manifested as light, thus a reasonable theological explanation as to why the bush was not consumed. The Church doesn't typically speak of the burning bush as a miracle inasmuch as ...http://communio.stblogs.org/2013/03/the-burning-bush-reveals-the-l.html
Holy Ground ATONEMENTONLINE - March 3, 2013 One of the moments of high drama was when Moses saw the burning bush and heard the voice of God. "Moses, Moses," God said. And then Moses was told to "put off your shoes from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground." Of course, we might say with Christ, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear." The idea of "holy ground" has been tossed out by many, as we slid into ...http://atonementparish.blogspot.com/2013/03/holy-ground.html

Guess where this inscription, and the corresponding depiction of Moses kneeling before the burning bush, appears? That's right, on the seal of the University of Kansas. Not at Notre Dame or Rockhurst. At KU. On the seal is not a Jayhawk or a field of wheat or Allen Fieldhouse. On the seal is a religious symbol and an inscription that is ...http://frmitchel.blogspot.com/2013/03/god-is-on-your-team.html

The angel of God (another way of speaking also of God as we see in the narrative) appears in a burning bush that is not consumed.

3rd Sunday of Lent - Year C DOMINICAN NUNS IRELAND - March 3, 2013 ... As God sent Moses to the people of Israel to be His mouth-piece and His instrument in freeing them from their bondage, so today He needs each of us to tell others of the love, compassion and forgiveness of our God. We need not be afraid to open to Him for He will surpass all our expectations and dreams with the abundance of His love - "Strong is His love for us!" "Only where God is seen does life truly begin. Only when we meet the living God in Christ do we know what life is. ...http://dominicannunsireland.blogspot.com/2013/03/3rd-sunday-of-lent-year-c.html
