“Christ emptied himself, and God filled this emptiness with exaltation” -Philippians 2:6-11
Pastor Reflection
The contrast between the processional reading in today’s
liturgy and the proclamation of the Passion is striking. We
are given a glimpse of how profoundly the word of God is
fulfilled in Jesus.
First he must be hailed as the Messiah, the One Who Is to
Come. He must be acknowledged by all, though they do
not know what they are saying. They think he is the promised king, a worldly king of the Jews who will free them
from the Roman occupation. They do not yet understand,
even the disciples, exactly where this triumphal procession
is leading. In our lives, we too do not know where we are
going. It is in faith that we can follow Christ wherever he
may lead us, trusting that death is not the end, nor evil the
victor.
A WELL-TRAINED TONGUE
What can be said after the reading of the Passion of the
Lord? It leaves us speechless and sad, and a little numb.
We can look to the words of Isaiah, who, speaking for Jesus, prophesies the eloquent teaching of Jesus, his mistreatment at the hands of those he comes to save, and
ultimately, his victory over evil and death itself.

EASTER EGG HUNT
For Parish Families and their children ages 1 - 6 years
Saturday, April 4th
George McCann School grounds
Gates open at 9 am
Egg Hunt begins at 10 am
Paul stresses Jesus’ obedience, the fact that he listened
to the word of God, as Isaiah affirms, “Morning after morning / [God] opens my ear that I may hear” (Isaiah 50:4).
Jesus brings God’s loving message, and instead of welcome, he receives “buffets and spitting (Isaiah 50:6).
JOIN US FOR SOME FAMILY FUN!
He humbles himself to be like us, even to death, a
shameful and horrific death by crucifixion. What are we to
make of it all?
* George McCann Classrooms tours
NOT DISGRACED
We can get distracted by the horror—so repelled that we
turn away, like the apostles, and want to run very far. But
we miss the point if we close our eyes to the meaning of
the suffering. Jesus’ death showed that evil cannot have
the last word, for it prepared the way for his resurrection.
We fear death, and wish we could make it go away. So did
the Lord. We are heavy and sad at the thought of his suffering, of anyone’s suffering, and we want to turn and run.
So did the Lord. Yet his obedience was perfect; he never
heard a word of God that he did not keep and teach others
to do the same. His death was his final “yes” to the will of
God. And his resurrection is God’s final answer to the forces of evil and death.

Upcoming & Ongoing Events
MUSIC MINISTRY DURING THE
PASCHAL SEASON
We all know that our worship music used at Masses, other liturgies like our Good Friday Service and the Liturgy of
the Hours, and our devotions such as the Divine Mercy
Chaplet follows the calendar of seasons and their proper
readings and Psalms for each Sunday and Holyday. Leaders
of choirs and ensemble groups are required to select
chants, hymns and songs (in addition to the Mass Ordinary
parts) that have sacred texts that are not only bound to
scripture lessons, but are actually appointed to be sung on
certain and exact days.
Beginning with Palm Sunday of the Lord’s Passion we will
experience that right at the formal Entrance of the Priest
celebrating Mass with the deacon(s) and acolytes/servers.
The Church instructs musicians and congregations to sing
“Hosanna Filio David,”
David,” or “Hosanna to the Son of David”
during the initial entrance (introit) of the priest. Then the
collect is prayed to greet all people, the first gospel is proclaimed, and then all the ministers proceed to the sanctuary to another appointed text such as “Children of Jerusalem” (Pueri
(Pueri Habraeorum)
Habraeorum) or another suitable hymn such as
“All glory, laud and honor.” As in all Sunday Masses, the
responsorial psalm assigned (“My God….why have You
abandoned me?” Ps.22)
Ps.22) is sung. But, after the Epistle reading many people are unaware that the Solemn Passion of
the Lord is actually meant to be sung or chanted. Practically that can’t be done in every one of our Masses for this
feast day, but the intended preference of it being chanted
will happen at St. Mary’s 8:30 and 10:30am Masses. Ideally
sung by the celebrant and deacons, the Church allows the
option of three chanters proclaiming the Passion so that
the entire assembly can actively listen to the Passion narrative with full attention. After the Passion is sung, the Mass
continues with its normally assigned musical accompaniments to the liturgical actions. The “upshot” to take away
from raising the solemnity of the day by chanting rather
than reciting the Passion reminds us that the Mass itself is
ideally supposed to be entirely sung, even in the Ordinary
Form that we’ve celebrated since 1970. This isn’t an “old
custom” from the Latin Mass eras at all. All of the Vatican II
liturgical documents make clear the great importance of
“singing THE Mass,” rather than “singing AT the Mass.”
Of course, scheduling, time constraints, and personnel
involved mitigate whether we can observe the ideal manner in which we celebrate the rites of the Mass, but again,
the more prayers, collects (invitations) and lessons that are
sung, the more Roman Catholic tradition is being manifested. And we truly can then claim to be actually singing in
concert with Saints and Angels in Heaven “Hosanna to God
in the highest.”
In the next installment, I’ll highlight the Triduum and
Easter Sunday aspects of sacred music at Mass.
What is “Circumambulation?”
One might think it’s “going around in circles” and
that wouldn’t be wrong! But, it is a liturgical term that
has to do with processions. In the Sunday and festal
Masses there are at least three processions: The Entrance, Offertory and Communion. Those parishioners
who attend St. Mary’s, Holy Family or St. Charles
might have noticed that the music ministers often
chant a short antiphon with some verses before the
Entrance and during the distribution of Holy Communion to the Acolytes and Extraordinary Ministers.
Well, those chants are actually what is actually prescribed by the Church documents to be sung for those
processions. But given the custom of singing hymns
and songs we don’t wish to displace those, but would
like to move closer to the ideals the Church has established. We will make a first step toward this goal on
Palm and Passion Sunday at the 8:30 and 10:30am
Masses at St. Mary’s. The celebrant and ministers will
enter the Church sanctuary at the ringing of the Sacristy bell, at which point they will process down the
north aisle of the Church to the entrance doors. The
chant accompanying that process will be the formal
Introit, “Hosanna
“Hosanna to the Son of David.”
David.” The celebrant
then will proceed with the Solemn Entrance rites and
reading of the First Gospel. Then he and the ministers
will procede up the center aisle to the hymn “All
“All Glory, Laud and Honor”
Honor” and conclude the Opening Rite in
the sanctuary. At the Offertory, the acolytes will process down the south aisle to the family presenting the
Offertory gifts, again to the Offertory chant, and then
come up the center aisle to present them to the deacon and celebrant, accompanied by an appropriate
congregational hymn.
These processions essentially envelope the entire
congregation, enabling all to actively “see and watch”
the procession and then to join in singing as the ministers come up the middle aisle. That is the value of
the processionals, which has been an ever more important part of Masses since Vatican II. “Encircling”
the congregation contributes an enhanced sense of
sacredness and solemnity. And if you think about it, it
doesn’t take any more time to accomplish than the
“normal” processions, when the company of ministers
would still have to walk outside (sometimes in brutally
cold or hot weather) to the front of the Church, or
walk down and back up the center aisle for the Offertory.
Because of other constraints we often cannot hold
processions outside for major feasts such as this.
“Circumambulation” also relieves this deficiency for
any of our parishes. Hopefully, we will continue the
practice as a normal part of the liturgical rites at
TCCoV in the future.

Catholic Professionals Meeting
April 9th
The Catholic Professionals & Business Club will
have their next meeting on Thursday, April 9th.
The group meets on the 2nd Thursday of each
month, (with the exception of January, July and
August) from 7-8:30 am at the Visalia Holiday
Inn. For questions, more information or reservations, please call Eileen Daly at 559-805-7008, or
register on line at cpbc-tularekings.org. Breakfast
is $20 for non-members and $15 for members.
Our guest speaker for the April meeting is Tom
Carroll, Middle East specialist and former officer
in the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), for an
evenhanded look at Islam in today’s world – from
a Catholic point of view.
Among the questions we will discuss:
•
What can the Middle East teach us about the authenticity of the Catholic
Church?
•
What are the crucial beliefs Catholics and Muslims share, and why do we
share them?
•
•
What is “Shari’a law” and why is it important?
What is the difference between radical and traditional Islam? Where does
the difference come from? Why does it matter today?
Tom joined the Clandestine Service of CIA shortly after graduating from college
with a degree in philosophy. He spent years under cover in the Middle East, specializing in the region and its issues. Tom and his wife converted to Catholicism
while living in Istanbul, Turkey.
Please plan to join us on Thursday, April 9, 2015. Everyone is welcome.

From the Ministry of the Most Holy Rosary of the
Diocese of Fresno:
Part Three
II. The Reconciliation of Penitents in the Church’s Life (Cont.)
The Sacrament of Penance and Its Parts
The follower of Christ who has sinned but who has been moved by the Holy
Spirit to come to the sacrament of penance should above all become converted to
God with his whole heart. This inner conversion of heart embraces sorrow for sin
and the intent to lead a new life. It is expressed through confession made to the
Church, due to satisfaction, and amendment of life. God grants pardon for sin
through the Church, which works by the ministry of priests.
A) Contrition. The most important act of penitent is contrition, which is a
“heartfelt” sorrow and aversion for the sin committed along with the intention of
sinning no more.” “We can only approach the Kingdom of Christ by metanoia. This
is a profound change of the whole person by which one begins to consider, judge
and arrange his life according to the holiness and love of God, made manifest in his
Son in the last day and given to us in abundance” (see Hebrews 1:2; Colossians 1:19
and passim). The genuineness of penance depends on this heartfelt contrition. For
conversion should affect a person from within so that it may progressively enlighten him and render him continually more like Christ.
B) Confession. The sacrament of penance includes the confession of sins,
which comes from true knowledge of self before God and from contrition for those
sins. However this inner examination of heart to the minister of God and in the
minister a spiritual judgement by which, acting in the person of Christ, he pronounces his decision of forgiveness or retention of sins in accord with the empower
of the keys.
C) Act of Penance (Satisfaction) True conversion is completed by acts of penance or satisfaction for the sins committed, by amendment of conduct, and also by
the reparation of injury. The kind and extent of the satisfaction should be suited to
the personal condition of each penitent so that each one may restore the cured of
the sickness from which he suffered. Therefore, it is necessary that the act of penance really be a remedy for sin and a help to renewal of life. Thus the penitent,
“forgetting the things which are behind him” (Philippians 3:13), again becomes part
of the mystery of salvation and turns himself toward the future.
D) Absolution. Through the sign of absolution God grants and pardon to the
sinner who in sacramental confession manifests his change of heart to the Church’s
minister and thus the sacrament of penance is completed. In God’s design the humanity and loving kindness of our Savior have visibly appeared to us, and God
uses visible signs to give salvation and to renew the broken covenant.
In the sacrament of penance the Father receives the repentant son who comes
back to him, Christ places the lost sheep on his shoulders and brings back to the
sheepfold, and the Holy Spirit sanctifies this temple of God again or lives more fully
within it. This is finally expressed in a renewed and more fervent sharing of the
Lord’s table, and there is great joy at the banquet of God’s Church over the son
who has returned from afar.
The Sorrowful Mysteries of the
Holy Rosary
[In light of the Feast Day of the Anunciation on
March 25 and the Holy Triduum on April 2, 3, & 4]
As we journey along this Holy Week, meditating
on the passion and death of the Lord, let us keep
in mind that God’s only begotten Son, Jesus
Christ, became flesh in the womb of Mary for this
moment. He willingly gave himself to suffer and
die because of His great love for the Father and
for us; but before God can accomplish this, He
invited Mary to be part of this heavenly plan
through the Archangel Gabriel. For without Mary,
in His perfect plan, the Son of God, pure spirit, will
not have the human body to be able to suffer. In
His infinitely great power, God humbled Himself
to take on human form by dwelling in the most
sacred place He created on earth – the Womb of
a Mother. Mary’s Fiat made it happen. With
Mary, God became incarnate so that he could
suffer for the world. May our Lenten journey increase our Faith, Hope, and Love so that, like
Mary at the Annunciation and at the Crucifixion,
we, too, upon God’s invitation, can say Fiat – we
are Your servants, Lord; let Your will be done in
us. Amen.

“Jesús se despojó totalmente y Dios lo llenó de exaltación” -Filipenses 2:6-11
Pray the Novena
Pastor Reflexión
UNA LENGUA EXPERTA
¿Qué puede decirse luego de leer la Pasión del Señor?
Nos deja estupefactos, tristes y un tanto atontados. Podemos ir a las palabras de Isaías quien, hablando por Jesús,
profetiza la elocuente enseñanza de Jesús, su maltrato a
manos de los que vino a salvar y en última instancia, su
victoria por sobre el mal y la misma muerte.
Pablo destaca la obediencia de Jesús, el hecho de que
escuchó la palabra de Dios, como afirma Isaías, “Mañana
tras mañana / [el Señor] despierta mi oído para que escuche yo” (Isaías 50:4). Jesús trae el mensaje de Dios y en vez
de recibir una bienvenida recibe “insultos y salivazos (Isaías
50:6).
Se humilló a sí mismo para ser como nosotros, incluso
aceptó la muerte, una muerte vergonzosa y horrorosa mediante la crucifixión. ¿Qué conclusiones sacamos al respecto?
NO ES UNA DESHONRA
Podemos distraernos por el horror –sentirnos tan repugnados que nos apartamos, como los apóstoles, y queremos correr muy lejos. Pero si cerramos nuestros ojos al
significado del sufrimiento no comprendemos el mensaje.
La muerte de Jesús mostró que el mal no puede tener la
última palabra, porque preparó el camino para su resurrección. Le tememos a la muerte y desearíamos poder hacerla
desaparecer. Lo mismo le pasó al Señor. Nos sentimos apesadumbrados y tristes al pensar en su sufrimiento, en el
sufrimiento de cualquiera, y queremos apartarnos y correr.
Lo mismo le pasó al Señor. Sin embargo su obediencia fue
perfecta, nunca escuchó una palabra de Dios que no haya
mantenido y enseñado a los demás a hacer lo mismo. Su
muerte fue su último “sí” a la voluntad de Dios. Y su resurrección es la respuesta final de Dios a las fuerzas del mal y
de la muerte.
