The familiar story of the angel Gabriel appearing to Mary
brings this Advent to a close. Here are a few voices reflecting on
the Annunciation.
Hans Urs von Balthasar
“It would never have occurred to Mary to see her assent to God
as a part of God’s own work: she works with God only in the sense she lets him
work in her.”
Catholic theologian Elizabeth Johnson, CSJ
“This young peasant girl discerns the voice of God in her life commissioning
her to a momentous task. Exercising independent thought and action, she asks questions, takes counsel with her own soul. In a self-determining act of personal autonomy, she decides to go for it. This is her choice and it changes her life. A woman of
Spirit, she embarks on the task of partnering God in the work of redemption.”
A rather more humorous perspective from Jewish New Testament biblical
scholar Amy-Jill Levine:
“The Virgin Mary made me nervous. When I was a child growing up in a predominantly Roman Catholic town in Massachusetts, my friends informed me that
Jesus would return the same way he had come before that is, a Jewish virgin would
be his mother. Being the only Jewish virgin in the neighborhood, I might therefore
become the messiah’s mother. Consequently, during much of second grade I was
absolutely petrified that an angel would appear in my bedroom, say, “Hail, Amy-Jill,”
and tell me I was going to be pregnant.”
Richard Rohr frequently points out that Mary teaches us how salvation is received; she is freely elected with no mention of merit, as it is for us. The Poet Denise
Levertov concludes the same thing in this often-omitted final stanza:
“She did not cry, ‘I cannot, I am not worthy,’
nor, “I have not the strength.’
She did not submit with gritted teeth,
raging, coerced.
Bravest of all humans,
consent illuminated her.
The room filled with its light,
the lily glowed in it,
and the iridescent wings.
Consent,
courage unparalleled,
opened her utterly.”
The story is so familiar that we don’t often stop to reflect on the courage required to say “Yes” to the voice of God when it finds its way to you, in your particularity, confronting you immediately and individually and with the full knowledge you
have no way of evading the responsibility of response.
“Aren’t there annunciations
of one sort or another
in most lives?
Some unwillingly
undertake great destinies,
enact them in sullen pride,
uncomprehending.
More often
those moments
when roads of light and storm
open from darkness in a man or woman,
are turned away from
in dread, in a wave of weakness, in despair
and with relief.
Ordinary lives continue
God does not smite them.
But the gates close, the pathway vanishes.”
Fr. Joe

Crazy Catholic Question #15
How can I get my relatives to come to church?
Well, frankly, we can’t. We have no
control over the choices our adult relatives make and the more we push, the
more likely they are to pull away. But we
are not powerless either…
During Advent we ponder the mystery of the Incarnation. We believe that,
in Jesus, God came to be with us right
here in our history and is still alive and
living with us now, gathering a community, the Body of Christ, to transform the
world with the love that he embodied.
Fr. Ron Rolheiser points out that
when we say that we are "the Body of
Christ" it is not an exaggeration or a metaphor. Our scriptures do not say "we
represent" or "replace" or "symbolize"
Jesus, they just say "We ARE the body of
Christ." The incarnation is not something that happened long ago, but rather
continues in us right at this moment. A
story…
There was a woman who, in the
midst of great suffering, wanders into her
empty church, sits down, closes her eyes
and fervently prays, “God, I am in great
pain and I need to know you are with
me. I know I’m not supposed to ask for
miracles or signs, but I’m at the end of
my rope. Please, I beg of you, give me a
sign of your presence.”
And she keeps repeating this last
line, “Please, I need a sign of your presence.” She waits a long while, eyes
closed tight, and all of a sudden she feels
a hand on her shoulder! Her stomach
flips and for a moment she is paralyzed.
Could it be that God is actually touching
her shoulder as a sign of support?!?
She slowly turns and sees behind her
one of her friends. The woman can’t
hide her disappointment. Her friend
says, “You seem distressed, can I help
you in anyway?” The woman explains
how she thought her friend was God
touching her on the shoulder, and her
friend asks “But, what hand did you
think God would use?”
St. Theresa of Avila writes:
Christ has no body now but yours,
No hands, no feet, on earth but
yours.
Yours are the eyes through which
He looks compassion on this world.
Yours are the feet with which He
walks to do good.
Your are the hands with which
He blesses all the world.
Christ has no body now on earth
but yours.
Fr. Rolheiser says “We all have
relatives and friends who don’t come
to Mass with us anymore. They have
been hurt or feel unaccepted and we
pray for them, but we also do much
more. If our touch is Christ’s touch,
then by loving and forgiving our alienated friends and relatives, in so far as
they receive love and forgiveness
from us, they are receiving love and
forgiveness from God.
Not unlike the woman who
touched the hem of Jesus’ garment
and was healed from 11 years of sickness, WE are the hem of Jesus’ garment for others, connecting them to
the body of Christ.
Maybe your child no longer goes
to church, no longer prays, no longer
respects your faith and is openly agnostic or atheistic. What can you do?
You can continue to pray for
them and live out your own faith,
hoping that your example will have
power where your words are ineffectual. But you can do even more.͒You
can continue to love and embrace
them and insofar as they receive that
love and forgiveness from you, they
are receiving love and forgiveness
from God! Since you are part of the
Body of Christ, when you love them
Christ is loving them.
Part of the wonder of the incarnation is the astonishing fact that we
can do for each other what Jesus did
for us! Our love and forgiveness are
the cords that connect our loved ones
to God, to salvation, and to the community of saints, even when they are
no longer walking the path of explicit
faith.”

Luke 1:26-38
Generous Donation
Each time I read this story, I find myself wondering if Mary really answered as readily as it seems.
Then, I read it again and I see even she doubted and
questioned the angel. The angel says to Mary, “Do not
be afraid, for you have found favour with God.” I
have to think a visit by an angel would, naturally, bring
some fear! Mary doubted and questioned the angel and
was encourage and comforted. There is something to
be said for letting go of all concern and giving God
complete charge. But it is so much easier said than
done.
Think about a time when you felt no fear and were
able to put complete trust in another. For most of us,
it was when we were small children before we reached
the age of reason. When we’re little, we trust our parents completely and are assured that they will take care
of everything. As we grow older, we become more
aware of the world around us and develop our own
sense of how we think things should go. It is much
more difficult for us to let go and put our complete
trust in another. Mary trusted the angel much as a
small child trusts its parent. Perhaps this is what Jesus
means when he says we are to come to him as a child –
completely innocent and open; none of our own plans,
agendas or ideals.
When we come to the place of complete trust and
surrender, we find it is here that God can do his best
work. Through complete dependence on God anything can happen.
This year our Youth Ministry program was given a very
generous gift. In September Michigan Blood held a blood
drive here at Christ the Redeemer. As part of their “Step
Up to Summer” Program, $10 for each donor registration
was donated to the CTR Youth Ministry program. In following the example set for us by our parish community, the
youth would like to tithe 10% of this gift to help others. In
addition, the teens have decided to donate monies to Lake
Orion High School in order to support students at risk.
I’m very proud of our teens and all the ways they are learning to put others first. This wouldn’t happen without the
generous donations and the leadership here at CTR. Thank
you for lighting the way for our young people of faith.

Rainbow XXXIII – “Feed Your Faith”
Save the Date! February 7-8, 2015 is our CYO Catholic Youth Conference held at the Renaissance Center in
Detroit.
Each year, CYO puts together a conference
specifically for 9th -12th grade students that helps
to energize their faith. The conference includes 4 general
sessions, 3 modules of the teen’s choosing, Mass, a dance,
and the opportunity to spend time with 1,500 other Catholic teens from the Archdiocese of Detroit. This conference
is planned by high school teens to try and meet the needs
of their peers. This year’s keynote speakers are Jesse Manibussan and Steve Angrisano, two very dynamic musicians
with years of experience guiding teens in their faith.
“When you feel the burning in your soul, come to the table of the
Lord. To satisfy the hunger that you feel, look to the Lord for your
Holy meal. To discover the recipe for salvation, you must avoid
temptation and feed your faith.” Paperwork is available in the
Youth Ministry Office and cost of the conference is
$125.00. If you would like more information on this
event, please contact Lisa Andridge at highschool@ctredeemer.org or (248) 391-4074 ext 33.

Doctrine of the Trinity
January 15, 2015
It is one of two fundamental
doctrines of Christianity. It is a paradox that Christians openly accept but
Jews and Muslims shun. In the 4th
century it became a controversy that
threatened Christianity like nothing
before. The first world wide Christian council was called to establish an
understanding of God that is still
recited today in churches across the
world. Learn why and what went
into developing the doctrine of the
Trinity.

Gospel of life
“Jesus, when he began his ministry,
was about thirty years of age, being the son
(as was supposed) of Joseph…the son of
Levi…the son of David…the son of Seth,
the son of Adam, the son of God.” (Luke
3:23-38)
The Evangelist Luke traces the
genealogy of Jesus to Adam in order
to identify Jesus with all humanity.
While all of us are adopted sons and
daughters of God, we can learn a lot
about our immediate family by digging deeper into our own cultural
heritage this Christmas season. Take
the time to fill out the register that
can be found in the front of your
family Bible. We as Catholics connect with Jesus through the Bible,
and with the people and saints that
came before us.
PAVAL Coed Volleyball
The Pontiac Area Vicariate Athletic League (PAVAL) was created
to promote fellowship, build community, enhance communications,
and to foster Christian values
through athletic endeavors accommodating a variety of age groups.
PAVAL will host its 25th season of
Coed Volleyball beginning Sunday, January 4, 2015, and ending
March 1 with a tournament. Matches
are played at Notre Dame Preparatory High School on Sunday evenings. Christ the Redeemer has fielded teams for several years and we are
finalizing our roster. The modest
team fee includes a team T-shirt.
Please contact our CTR team manager Linda Brouns at
LJandDan@aol.com or Mike Zabat
at pavalvb@gmail if interested. Linda will arrange an optional practice
schedule for those who are interested. More information is posted on
our parish website.
In 1310, the artist Pacino di
Bonaguida depicted the Cross of Jesus as the Tree of Life. By depicting
the Crucifixion as the central image
among many images, the artist established Jesus’ complete gift of self as
the crowning event in salvation history. The desire to embrace his Father’s
plan of redeeming love for us inspired Jesus’ whole life.
The Gospel of Life group at
Christ the Redeemer prays that all
families will cherish their time together at Christmas to grow closer to
Jesus, Our Lord and Savior.
