Holy Name Cathedral THE CORNER OF STATE AND SUPERIOR Offices: 730 N. Wabash Ave. Chicago, IL 60611 312-787-8040 WWW.HOLYNAMECATHEDRAL.ORG June 7, 2015 The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ At the name of Jesus, every knee should bend of those in Heaven and on earth and under the earth. Philippians 2:10 Holy Name Cathedral The place where Chicago goes to celebrate the sacraments, proclaim the Gospel, and carry out Christ's message through prayer and deed HAVE A NICE WEEKEND Each of the four basilicas in Rome has a holy door. The doors are normally sealed shut from the inside so that they cannot be opened. They are opened during Jubilee years when pilgrims enter through those doors to gain the plenary indulgence connected with the Jubilee. Pope Francis recently announced a special Jubilee Year of Mercy beginning on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, Dec. 8, 2015, and lasting through the Feast of Christ the King, Nov. 20, 2016. In preparation for the Jubilee Year, Cathedrals have been asked to observe the custom of the Holy Door. Therefore, next Friday, June 12, the Feast of the Sacred Heart, Archbishop Cupich will offer the 12:10pm Mass at Holy Name followed by a ceremony that will seal the north door on State Street. It will be open again during the Holy Year especially to those admitting our need for mercy and God’s eternal offer celebrated during the Jubilee. Let’s participate and see where this spiritual exercise leads us. ___________________________ Next Saturday, June 13, Luis Cardinal Tagle, the Archbishop of Manila, will be our guest celebrant of the 5:15pm Vigil Mass. Cardinal Tagle is an internationally-respected bishop with a reputation for his intelligence, his respect for the poor, and his leadership in a city with 2.8 million Catholics. I often have pointed out that Filipinos are the largest ethnic group among the registered parishioners at Holy Name Cathedral. Therefore, I expect a very good attendance at that Mass. I have heard that the Cardinal planned his trip to the Chicago area to celebrate a wedding at another Church, but he wanted to offer Mass at the famous Holy Name Cathedral. That is a compliment. An informal reception for Cardinal Tagle in the courtyard will follow the Mass next Saturday evening. _____________________________ overlooks the fact that most priests work weekends. Still, it was early in my public ministry that I learned to claim a definite day off each week. For the last 25 years, I have designated Wednesday as my “holy day.” While my parents were alive, I retreated to their house every Wednesday. Since they have been gone and I do not have a place to hide, I still manage to keep my work calendar clear on Wednesday. Another “time out” available to priests at the Cathedral occasionally occurs on a most unusual day – Sunday. There are 8 priests living at the Cathedral; four of us work here full-time, four have other outside jobs or are retired. In addition, Msgr. Mike Boland, CEO of Catholic Charities, has been a part of the Cathedral priests’ roster since back in the days when he lived with us. There are 8 Masses at Holy Name Cathedral each weekend which count for the Sunday obligation. If we all are available, there are 9 priests. When that happens, one of us is free from presiding at Mass and preparing a homily. The free priest still must go to Mass like every other Catholic; but he is free to concelebrate, say a private Mass, or offer a hand to another parish not as endowed as we are. Such was my blessing last weekend. I did go to Mass; but I took the opportunity also to go on a “busman’s holiday.” I walked to Fourth Presbyterian Church on Michigan Avenue to check out the 9:30 worship service of our Christian neighbors and to hear their pastor, Shannon Kerschner, preach on Trinity Sunday. She was, as usual, excellent. Using the inquiry of Nicodemus in the third chapter of John’s gospel, she posed the question “How can this be?’ in response to the doctrine of the Three Persons in One God. She pronounced the classic parts of our belief in the Trinity, she noted that Jesus never expounded on that mystery in a definitive way in the Scriptures; she expressed frustration that we “observe” Trinity Sunday whereas we “celebrate” Pentecost Sunday; she noted that the language of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit provides a vocabulary where we can commonly meet to recollect our experiences of God in one way or another; but she also admitted that our words are inadequate. Quoting poet Emily Dickenson, Rev. Kerschner suggested that we “tell all the truth but tell it slant.” Perhaps the Trinity is better appreciated as faithfilled poetry rather than a logical explanation. This week, I think we can approach what the Catholic Church calls “The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ” (a.k.a, Corpus Christi Sunday) in the same way. It looks like bread and water and wine; it tastes like bread and water and wine; but it is not bread and water and wine. It is the Body and Blood of Christ – not a symbol of the Body and Blood of Christ, but the real Body and Blood of Christ physically present in the Eucharist. “How can this be?” Enter faith. Next Sunday, June 14, I will be the main celebrant and homilist at the 12:30pm Mass when we will welcome representatives of the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary – the BVM Sisters – who served Holy Name Cathedral parish for 102 years, 1904-2006. During most of that time, they staffed the grade school and high school that were attached to the parish until midway through the 1990s. For the last 55 years that the BVMs were here, they lived in the building at the northeast corner of the Cathedral campus, the building that now houses I am glad I visited 4th Church last Sunday. The experience allowed me Casa Jesus, a formation house for young Latin American men to see both the Trinity and Sunday from a different perspective. I even considering a vocation to the Chicago priesthood; and Abramowicz Seminary, a similar program of enculturation and study for men from learned something, and I prayed. Poland. Next Sunday, join us in thanking the BVM Sisters. Following that 12:30pm Mass, Archbishop Cupich will dedicate and bless Holy Name Cathedral’s courtyard. The beautiful courtyard, a dream for better than ten years, opened last fall through the generosity of parishioners. It served as the place under a tent for receptions following the events of Archbishop Cupich’s installation. It features a shrine to the Blessed Mother which inspires individuals who pray there every day; and which has become a beautiful backdrop for wedding photos, 1st Communion pictures, baptism photos, and the Archbishop’s graceful announcement of the death of Cardinal George. With better weather arriving, I look for the pretty prayer garden between the Catholic Charities building and the school to get more use. Theology-on-Tap, Coffee-in-the-Courtyard, and the photos after the Golden Anniversary Mass are some of the other approaching summertime courtyard events. Come celebrate the blessing of the courtyard on Sunday, June 14, at 1:30pm. ____________________________ “Have a nice weekend, Father.” I always chuckle when someone offers that polite good-bye to me or any other priest. The well-wisher Tell all the truth but tell it slant, Success in circuit lies, Too bright for our infirm delight The truth's superb surprise; As lightning to the children eased With explanation kind, The truth must dazzle gradually Or every man be blind.

Alleluia! Sunday 12:30 O sacrum convivium! Olivier Messiaen O sacrum convivium, in quo Christus sumitur; recolitur memoria passionis ejus; mens impletur gratia; et futurae gloriae nobis pignus datur. Alleluia. TRANSLATION: O sacred banquet, wherein Christ is received; the memorial of his passion is renewed; the soul is filled with grace; and a pledge of future glory is given to us. Alleluia. All other Masses – Hymn The Hand of the Lord WORSHIP 733 Randolph Currie At That First Eucharist UNDE ET MEMORES CHORAL MUSIC Olivier Messiaen’s setting of the text - O sacrum convivium! Is a meditation on the eternity of God’s plan through the sacrifice of the Body and Blood of Christ in the Holy Eucharist celebration. Olivier Messiaen (December 10, 1908 – April 27, 1992) was a French composer, organist and ornithologist, widely regarded as a major composer of the 20th century. His music is rhythmically complex (he was interested in rhythms from ancient Greek and from Hindu sources), and is harmonically and melodically based on his innovation of modes of limited transposition, a series of distinctive scales. Many of his compositions depict what he termed "the marvelous aspects of the faith", and drew on his deeply held Roman Catholicism. The Cathedral Filipino Singers and the Schola Cantorum Cathedralis will be singing on Saturday, 5:15pm, June 13, 2015 during the visit by Cardinal Luis Antonio Gokim Tangle, D.D., S. Th. D., Archbishop of Manila.. The choral ensemble is directed by Vicente Velarde, Jr. and Dr. H. Ricardo Ramirez. Singers interested in auditioning for the choirs can contact the music office: music@holynamecathedral.org 312.573.4415. Auditions for Cathedral Singers, Women’s Schola and Cathedral Filipino Singers will be held in August and September. June 7, 2015: The Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ page 6 Not a Catholic? Thinking about becoming a Catholic? Never been baptized? Or, never received First Communion and/or Confirmation? Consider the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA) The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process offered for adults to become full members of the Roman Catholic Church. Those inquiring about the faith learn more about God, Jesus and the Church, and sharing their developing faith. This is a time of instruction, prayer, scripture sharing, and reaching out to the needy. RCIA begins on Sunday, September 20, 2015. Catechumens (those never baptized) and candidates (those baptized in another Christian faith, but not baptized Catholic; or those baptized Catholic, but never received First Communion or Confirmation) meet weekly. At the Easter Vigil, on March 26, 2015, those who are ready will receive the sacraments and be joyfully welcomed into full membership in the Catholic Church. Please contact Father Don Cambe at 312-787-8040 or (e-mail dcambe@holynamecathedral.org ) for more information and/or register for the RCIA program. RCIA Sponsors Needed! The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the process offered for adults to become full members of the Catholic Church. RCIA meets nearly every Sunday morning from 9:30-11:30am beginning on September 20, 2015. RCIA participants receive the sacraments and become full members of the Church at the Easter Vigil on March 26, 2015. Parish Sponsors Needed: RCIA participants are often in need of a parishioner to volunteer to be their sponsor. Sponsors often say that it is a rewarding experience and that they learn so much about their own faith. Sponsors are not expected to know everything about the Catholic faith, but rather to journey with the participant; share their faith, and be supportive of their candidate or catechumen as they go through the RCIA process. Sponsors are hospitable and welcoming representatives of the parish. They are good listeners and respectful of their candidate or catechumen. A team of RCIA volunteers is available to assist sponsors, should the need arise, and brief training is provided. Please contact Father Don Cambe at the rectory, 312-787-8040 or (e-mail dcambe@holynamecathedral.org ) for more information and/or to apply to be an RCIA parish sponsor.

We celebrate today the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ — Corpus Christi. As Catholics we have celebrated this since the 13th Century. On Holy Thursday we celebrate the Last Supper, but the Church, feeling that the proximity of Easter might lessen that, instituted this Solemnity to occur right after the Solemnity of the Holy Trinity, which we commemorated last Sunday. We often speak of Holy Days of Obligation. This is one of the ten Holy Days of Obligation in the Latin Rite Church, but here in the United States it is celebrated on Sunday. Sunday, of course, is always a Holy Day of Obligation for us. As stewards of the Church it is vital that we understand our Catholic traditions and practices and are able to explain them.

Carl Renaghan & Tracy Cleveland I. Raymond Lee & Maren Lyngson The emphasis on this Feast Day is Holy Communion, the Eucharist. At Communion we receive the True Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. We are a gifted people, and this is an incredible gift to us. On this day especially we are called to focus on this gift. In Communion we receive gifts that affect us both physically and spiritually. From a spiritual perspective we are united with Christ. Communion should increase our love of God and of our neighbor. This is lived out in the action of stewardship. www.thecatholicsteward.com Commemorative Pavers Installed!
