Pentecostw May 31st, 2020Acts 2:1-11 w 1 Cor 12:3b-7, 12-13 w John 20:19-23

Dear Parishioners,We don’t need a reopening committee, we need a reimagining task force. By now you probably have realized that Governor Baker’s

announcement to reopen Houses of Worship during the very first phase of his gradual reopening plan for the State took reli-gious communities completely by surprise. All along, we were told that because of the congregational nature of religious ser-vices it would not be safe for us to reopen until Phase 3.

Because of that surprised announcement, an unscheduled Zoom meeting of the Newton Interfaith Clergy Association was called. Before the shutdown, the Association was actually planning a clergy pulpit exchange of which we were to be a part. Now, after the shutdown, they began to discuss instead how to go about reopening. That is when Sr. Diane, our ded-icated liaison with the group, heard of the need not simply to reopen but to reimagine.

Reimagining and not simply re-opening seems so fitting for us. Af-ter all, we never really shut down. Oh, our Church building was closed, but we never forgot that we were an “essential service.” – Had you ever imagined before now of our describ-ing what we do in such a businessy sort of way? I never did!

Anyway, upon closing our Church building we simply jumped right in with figuring out how we could best livestream both an English and Spanish Mass each Sunday; we worked to communicate with you through our website, social media, online bulletins, and emails blasts; we started Zoom meetings and programs and even recently added a weekly Children’s Liturgy of the Word and biweekly Liturgy of the Hours. It took a good bit of fast-thinking and fast-act-ing to pull all this off. We can only hope that these attempts nourished and will continue to nourish you spiritually.

Now we have been set another task: one that begins to bring us gradually back together into our Church building to celebrate fully as a Eucharistic Community with one another. Contrary to the shutdown, however, I believe this moment in-volves slow-thinking and slow-acting. Here I am reminded of Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman’s book, Thinking, Fast and Slow (2011).

We need first to recall why we closed our Church build-ing in the first place. It was not simply because of the Gover-nor’s or Archbishop’s orders. Following orders is an extrin-sic, rather superficial reason. More akin to saying, “okay, I have no choice, so I have to obey.” Instead, we surely closed it for a deeper, intrinsic, Christian reason: our Common Good. I think we would all agree that our faith is empty and the Eucharist we share meaningless if it does not lead us to love and care for one another and by extension for all God’s creatures and creation.

Estimados Feligreses:No necesitamos un comité de reapertura, necesitamos un grupo de tra-

bajo reimaginador.A estas alturas probablemente se hayan dado cuenta de que

el anuncio del gobernador Baker de reabrir los lugares de Culto durante la primera fase de su plan de reapertura gradual para el Estado tomó completamente por sorpresa a las comunidades religiosas. Todo el tiempo, nos dijeron que debido a la naturale-za congregacional de los servicios religiosos no sería seguro para nosotros volver a abrir hasta la fase 3.

Debido a ese anuncio sorpresa, una reunión no programa-da de la Asociación del Clero Interreligioso de Newton fue convocada. Antes del cierre, la Asociación estaba planeando un intercambio de púlpitos del clero del que íbamos a formar parte. Ahora, después del cierre, comenzaron a discutir, en su lugar, cómo ir reabriendo. Fue entonces cuando Sor Diane,

nuestro dedicado enlace con el gru-po, se enteró de la necesidad no sólo de reabrir sino de reimaginar.

Reimaginar y no simplemente reabrir nos parece muy apropiado. Después de todo, nunca cerramos realmente. Oh, el edificio de nues-tra Iglesia estaba cerrado, pero nunca olvidamos que éramos un "servicio esencial". – ¿Se habían imaginado

antes a nuestra descripción de lo que hacemos de una manera tan comercial? ¡Nunca lo hice!

Sea lo que sea, al cerrar nuestra Iglesia simplemente comen-zamos inmediatamente a pensar cómo podríamos transmitir mejor en vivo tanto una misa en inglés como una en español cada domingo; trabajamos para comunicarnos con ustedes a través de nuestro sitio web, las redes sociales, los boletines en línea, y una cantidad de correos electrónicos; comenzamos con reuniones y programas por Zoom e incluso recientemente añadimos una liturgia de la palabra semanal para niños y la liturgia de las horas dos veces por semana. Se necesitó un poco de pensamiento y de acción rápidos para lograr todo esto. Sólo esperamos que estos esfuerzos los hayan nutrido y continúen alimentándolos espiritualmente.

Ahora tenemos una tarea más: una que comienza con re-unirnos gradualmente de nuevo en nuestra Iglesia para cele-brar juntos plenamente como comunidad eucarística. Contrar-iamente al cierre, sin embargo, creo que este momento implica pensamiento y acción lentos. Aquí recuerdo el libro del Premio Nobel Daniel Kahneman, Thinking, Fast and Slow (2011).

Primero que nada, debemos recordar por qué cerramos inicialmente el edificio de la Iglesia. No fue simplemente por órdenes del Gobernador o el Arzobispo. Seguir las ordenanzas es una razón extrínseca, bastante superficial. Es como decir, "bueno, no tengo otra opción, así que tengo que obedecer."

3/Pentecost

We closed our Church building, therefore, as a sign of care and concern, not just for ourselves but for everyone to con-tain the spread of the coronavirus. Actually, we even now wear masks as a significant sign and symbol in these days of global pandemic of the care and concern we have for the health and well-being of our neighbor.

If you think about it, we also often refer to the Blessed Sacrament as holy communion. We do that, of course, to re-mind ourselves that receiving communion is an essential help on our road to holiness. Our closing our Church building was in fact a concrete way of being holy, of making a sacrifice to put Jesus’s teachings of love and charity into practice. It is hard to imagine, isn’t it, that Jesus does not honor and bless the sacrifice of our months of Eucharistic fasting? Wouldn’t Jesus see our sacrifice not as some detour on the road to holi-ness, but truly as a meaningful temporary part of the journey along that road?

Surely, however, it would be nice to see a bit of feasting on that same road once again. Which leads us to ask how we are to reimagine the eventual safe, public reopening of our beloved communal worship space.

As a first step, all parish liturgical ministers and volun-teers should have received an email with a letter from me describing our real needs and an invitation to fill out a brief questionnaire about them. If you didn’t receive that email for any reason or would like to receive it, please let us know by contacting the parish office by email or phone. We will be sure to get it to you.

The responses on this questionnaire will help me, along with the parish staff and leadership of the parish, to deter-mine when and how we are to move forward. We cannot even begin to reimagine reopening our Church building as a public worship space again without first having a host of volunteers willing to make certain sacrifices.

But we are hopeful. Today is the Feast of Pentecost, a day we focus on the descent of the Holy Spirit and are reminded that we are in the Spirit and led by the Spirit. Let us pray that we will allow ourselves to be so guided by the Spirit that, through our careful consideration of the Common Good and our individual and communal discernment about our particular path on the road to holiness, we may reimagine our safe and prudent future as a Eucharistic parish community.

In Christ’s Peace,Fr. Joe

En cambio, seguramente lo cerramos por una razón más pro-funda, intrínseca, cristiana: nuestro Bien Común. Creo que todos estaríamos de acuerdo en que nuestra fe sería vacía y la Eucaristía que compartimos un sin sentido si ellas no nos llevan a amarnos y cuidarnos los unos a los otros y, por extensión, a todas las criaturas y la creación de Dios. Cerra-mos nuestra Iglesia, por lo tanto, como un signo de cuidarnos y preocuparnos, no sólo por nosotros, sino para que todos contuviéramos la propagación del coronavirus. En realidad, incluso ahora llevamos máscaras como signo y símbolo sig-nificativos de estos días de pandemia global por la atención y preocupación que tenemos por la salud y el bienestar de nuestro vecino.

Si lo piensan, también nos referimos a menudo al Santísimo Sacramento como santa comunión. Hacemos eso, por supues-to, para recordarnos a nosotros mismos que recibir la comu-nión es una ayuda esencial en nuestro camino hacia la santidad. la clausura de la Iglesia fue, de hecho, una forma concreta de ser santos, de hacer un sacrificio para poner en práctica las enseñanzas de amor y caridad de Jesús. ¿No les parece que sería difícil imaginarnos a Jesús no honrando ni bendiciendo el sacrificio de nuestros meses de ayuno eucarístico? ¿No vería Jesús nuestro sacrificio no como un desvío en el camino hacia la santidad, sino verdaderamente como una parte temporal sig-nificativa del viaje por ese camino?

Seguramente, por otro lado, sería bueno ver un poco de fes-tejo en ese mismo camino una vez más. Lo que nos lleva a preguntarnos cómo vamos a reimaginar la eventual reapertura pública y segura de nuestro amado espacio de culto comunal.

Como primer paso, todos los ministros litúrgicos y volun-tarios de la parroquia deberían haber recibido un correo elec-trónico con una carta mía describiendo nuestras necesidades reales y una invitación para llenar un breve cuestionario sobre ellas. Si no recibieron ese correo electrónico por cualquier motivo o desean recibirlo, por favor, háganoslo saber ponién-dose en contacto con la oficina parroquial por correo elec-trónico o teléfono. Nos aseguraremos de contactarlos

Las respuestas a este cuestionario me ayudarán, junto con el personal y la dirección de la parroquia, a determinar cuán-do y cómo debemos seguir adelante. Ni siquiera podemos empezar a reimaginar la reapertura de nuestro edificio como un espacio de culto público de nuevo sin tener primero una serie de voluntarios dispuestos a hacer ciertos sacrificios.

Pero tenemos esperanzas. Hoy es la fiesta de Pentecostés, un día en el que nos centramos en el descenso del Espíritu Santo y se nos recuerda que estamos en el Espíritu y somos guiados por el Espíritu. Oremos para que nos dejemos guiar por el Espíritu que, a través de nuestra cuidadosa consid-eración del Bien Común y de nuestro discernimiento indi-vidual y comunitario sobre nuestro camino particular en el camino hacia la santidad, podamos reimaginar nuestro futuro seguro y prudente, como comunidad parroquial eucarística.

En la paz de Cristo:P. Joe

4/Pentecost

These times of uncertainty bring up so many questions - Is it safe to go to the store? Are my relatives and friends at risk? When will my kids go back to school? And with each question, we might simply feel lost, unsure of what our next move is.

When I joined the St. Ignatius community as the Confirmation Coordinator in August last year, I felt a little lost jumping into a new role and trying to implement the parish’s new Confirmation curriculum. I questioned what would be the best way to help the Confirmandi grasp the mystery of the Catholic faith. I found it helpful to focus on the broader Faith Formation mission that em-phasizes forming students in the faith, not simply transmitting the faith. The new curriculum did away with a textbook and provided an intentional space of dialogue in which students wrestled with and questioned their faith. Through small group conversation and engaging activities, the students had the opportunity to explore how they might live out the Catholic faith in today’s society, which is in need of great young leaders.

From a student survey taken at the end of the year, students remarked that they liked how the class connected Church teach-ings to modern issues of social justice showing how Catholicism is relevant to their lives. A few students also mentioned that they learned new ways to pray as they explored prayers like Ignatian contemplation, the Examen, and Lectio Divina. More so, students enjoyed the retreats in which the already confirmed student leaders played a significant part as role models of faith. The new curric-ulum with the retreats allowed students to unpack the questions they had about their faith, not looking to an endpoint, but rather opening up possibilities of further growth and involvement in the Catholic Church.

As much as the class prepared students for the Sacrament of Confirmation itself, it also prepared them to live into the questions or into the mystery of the Catholic faith. Students pondered ques-tions around morality, who God is to them, and social justice issues like homelessness, environmental justice, and LGBTQ rights. In doing so, faith became real and tangible, but not at an easy price of simply reading Church teachings or a textbook. It required ex-ploration and wrestling. As Dr. Richard Gaillardetz emphasized at a panel on LGBTQ Catholics in the Church, which many of the students attended, “Are you willing to be troubled by teaching? To argue with doctrine? To wrestle with it? Those who do are in the Church.” It is in asking the necessary questions and wrestling with them that we display a strong act of faith and trust. It is in asking questions that we are able to make meaning of the mystery and we come to know ourselves more fully in relation to God and others.

While the Confirmation Mass has been postponed, please pray for our youth who are living into a deeper commitment to their faith.

As I end my part-time position at St. Ignatius, I am grateful for the opportunity to accompany students on their Confirmation journey and to be a part of the Family Mass community. Out of deep gratitude, I will continue to pray for the St. Ignatius commu-nity. Just as the Confirmation students did in class, living the ques-tions is a great act of faith in this time. While this pandemic might leave us feeling a bit lost, let us remember the places and people that welcome our curiosity, prayers, and questions and allow us to come to know ourselves more fully in Christ.

Peace,Justin

Estos tiempos de incertidumbre traen muchas preguntas - ¿Es se-guro ir a la tienda? ¿Están en riesgo mis familiares y amigos? ¿Cuándo volverán mis hijos a la escuela? Y con cada pregunta, podríamos sim-plemente sentirnos perdidos, inseguros de cuál será nuestra próxima movida.

Cuando me uní a la comunidad de San Ignacio como Coordinador de Confirmación en agosto del año pasado, me sentí un poco perdido al asumir un nuevo rol y tratando de implementar el nuevo plan de estudios de Confirmación de la parroquia. Me pregunté cuál sería la mejor manera de ayudar a los Confirmandos a comprender el misterio de la fe católica. Me resultó útil centrarme en la misión más amplia de la Formación para la Fe que hace hincapié en la formación de los alum-nos en la fe, no simplemente transmitir la fe. El nuevo plan de estudios tenía un libro de texto y proporcionó un espacio intencional de diálogo en el que los alumnos lidiaban y cuestionaban su fe. A través de la con-versación en grupos pequeños y actividades atractivas, los estudiantes tuvieron la oportunidad de explorar cómo podrían vivir la fe católica en la sociedad actual, que necesita grandes líderes jóvenes.

A partir de una encuesta a los estudiantes, realizada al final del año, los alumnos comentaron que les gustaba cómo la clase conect-aba las enseñanzas de la Iglesia con cuestiones modernas de justicia social que mostraban cómo el catolicismo es relevante para sus vi-das. Algunos alumnos también mencionaron que aprendieron nue-vas maneras de orar mientras exploraban oraciones como la con-templación ignaciana, el Examen y la Lectio Divina. Más aún, los alumnos disfrutaron de los retiros en los que los líderes estudiantiles ya confirmados desempeñaron un papel importante como modelos a seguir de fe. El nuevo plan de estudios con los retiros permitió a los estudiantes formular las preguntas que tenían acerca de su fe, no mirando a un punto final, sino más bien abriendo posibilidades de mayor crecimiento e implicación en la Iglesia Católica.

Por mucho que la clase preparara a los alumnos para el sacra-mento de la confirmación en sí, también los preparó para vivir en las preguntas o en el misterio de la fe católica. Los estudiantes re-flexionaron sobre la moralidad, quién es Dios para ellos, y cuestio-nes de justicia social como la falta de vivienda, la justicia ambiental y los derechos LGBTQ. Al hacerlo, la fe se hizo real y tangible, pero no a un precio fácil de simplemente leer las enseñanzas de la Igle-sia o un libro de texto. Requería exploración y lucha. Como el Dr. Richard Gaillardetz enfatizó en un panel sobre católicos LGBTQ en la Iglesia, al que asistieron muchos de los estudiantes: "¿Están dispuestos a preocuparse por la enseñanza? ¿Para discutir con la doctrina? ¿Para luchar con él? Los que lo hacen están en la Iglesia". Es al hacer las preguntas necesarias y luchar con ellos que mostra-mos un fuerte acto de fe y confianza. Es al hacer preguntas que somos capaces de dar sentido al misterio y llegamos a conocernos más plenamente en relación con Dios y los demás.

Si bien la Misa de Confirmación ha sido pospuesta, por favor oren por nuestros jóvenes que están viviendo un compromiso más profundo con su fe.

Al terminar mi posición a tiempo parcial en San Ignacio, estoy agradecido por la oportunidad de acompañar a los estudiantes en su viaje de Confirmación y de ser parte de la comunidad de la Misa Familiar. Con profunda gratitud, seguiré orando por la comunidad de San Ignacio. Al igual que los alumnos de confirmación lo hic-ieron en la clase, vivir las preguntas es un gran acto de fe en este tiempo. Si bien esta pandemia podría dejarnos un poco perdidos, recordemos los lugares y las personas que acogen nuestra curiosi-dad, oraciones y preguntas y nos permiten llegar a conocernos más plenamente en Cristo.

Paz,Justin
