for me guide
2:01
in the name of the father and of the son
2:03
prepare our
2:05
hearts I confess to almighty God and to
2:09
you my brothers and sisters through my
2:12
fault through my fault through my most
2:15
Grievous fa and therefore I ask the
2:18
Blessed Mary ever virgin God have mercy
2:20
on us forgive us our sins CHR Merc Lord
2:23
have
2:24
mercy let us pray oh God who founded all
2:29
the commands of your sacred law upon
2:30
love of you and of our neighbor grant
2:33
that by keeping your precepts we may
2:35
Merit to attain eternal life through our
2:37
Lord Jesus Christ your son who lives and
2:39
reigns with you in the unity of the Holy
2:41
Spirit one God forever and ever
2:54
amen a reading from the first letter of
2:57
St Paul to the Corinthians spiritual
3:00
gifts but I shall show you a still more
3:04
excellent way if I speak in human and
3:08
Angelic tongues but do not have love I
3:12
am a resounding gong or clashing
3:16
symbol indistries and all knowledge if I
3:19
have all Faith so as to move mountains
3:23
but do not have love I am nothing if I
3:27
do not have love I love is not pompous
3:31
it is not in it is not doing but Rejoice
3:34
things endures all things Love Never
3:38
Fails if there are prophecies they will
3:41
be brought to nothing if tongues they
3:44
will cease if knowledge it will be
3:47
brought to nothing for we know partially
3:51
and we prophesy
3:54
partially but when the perfect comes the
3:57
partial will pass away
4:00
when I was a child I became a man I put
4:03
on childish put a a mirror but not I am
4:06
fully known so faith hope love remain
4:11
these three but the greatest of these is
4:15
love the word of the Lord to be his own
4:19
blessed the PE with the tin stream liar
4:23
chant his Praises sing to him a new song
4:27
pluck the strings skillfully
4:30
with shouts of G gladness blessed the
4:33
people the Lord has chosen to be his own
4:37
for upright is the word of the of the
4:39
kindness of the Lord blessed the nation
4:41
whose God is the Lord the people he has
4:45
chosen for his own inheritance may your
4:48
kindness
4:52
oh a reading from the holy Gospel
4:55
According to St Luke GL to Jesus said to
4:59
the crowds to what shall I compare the
5:02
people of this generation what are they
5:04
like they are like children who sit in
5:06
the marketplace and call to one another
5:09
we played the flute for you but you did
5:11
not dance we sang A durge but you did
5:14
not weep for John the Baptist came
5:16
neither eating food nor drinking wine
5:18
and you said he is possessed by a demon
5:20
tax collectors and sinners but wisdom is
5:23
Vindicated by all her children the
5:26
gospel of the Lord praise to you lordes
5:31
so we happen to find ourselves in the
5:33
middle of three very important days in
5:35
the Kingdom of Naples and while we are
5:38
not in the Kingdom of Naples they're
5:40
interesting days so it's worth
5:41
mentioning yesterday of course was the
5:43
feast day of the Stigmata of St Frank
5:46
and so that was a big deal we celebrated
5:48
yesterday today is the Feast of St
5:51
Joseph of copertino the flying frier uh
5:54
who is a Franciscan frier uh who very
5:57
very famously when he would pray and
5:59
especially when he would pray the rosary
6:01
he would lift off the ground and because
6:03
the franciscans wear so much fabric he
6:06
would catch the wind and literally go
6:08
flying through the air and sometimes the
6:10
brother the brothers had actually
6:12
determined that if there was any money
6:13
in his pockets it would hold him down
6:16
like an anchor so people would throw
6:17
coins at him in hope of getting it to
6:19
stick and bring him back to the ground
6:21
one of the weirdest stories in the
6:23
history of the Roman Catholic Church
6:24
which is saying something it's broadly
6:26
attested to people of all Faith wrote
6:29
about it it's just a weird thing and so
6:31
we have St Joseph of copertino uh
6:33
incidentally copertino is a city that if
6:35
you think about Italy as a boot it's
6:37
right in the crook of the boot so it's
6:39
way way way down there in the South and
6:41
the flying frier was one of those weird
6:44
so that was weird and that that's our
6:46
Feast today although we don't celebrate
6:47
in the modern calendar then tomorrow
6:50
which I won't get to talk about because
6:51
of the nursing home so I'm bringing it
6:52
up a little bit today is the Feast of sa
6:55
and in another stroke of weirdness his
6:58
blood not the blood BL of Christ or his
7:00
blood when he died was put into a glass
7:04
vial a series of glass vials that is
7:06
completely airtight and that is
7:08
completely blown shut and so it's inside
7:11
this atin sorum uh which is what we call
7:14
sensorium if it's not blood
7:16
liquefies it's morning which is really
7:19
early for the Italians and he prays and
7:21
prays and about 10:00 or so the blood
7:23
liquefies unless something bad is going
7:26
to happen in the city of Naples three
7:28
times in the last 50 years it has not
7:31
liquefied one time was an earthquake one
7:33
time was the invasion of of of some very
7:36
freakish sort of things and of course
7:38
the napes just nepes love this stuff it
7:41
makes no sense it's weird it is very
7:44
very much in line with the kind of the
7:46
issue that backwards and out of dat and
7:48
things and I wrote about this this
7:50
weekend or coming up this weekend in the
7:51
bulletin how we can't disconnect
7:54
ourselves from the mysticism of our
7:56
faith we shouldn't obsess over it and
7:58
certainly I don't think someone who has
8:00
not ever heard of Christianity should be
8:02
first introduced to it by Joseph of
8:03
copertino the flying monk because
8:06
they're going to think we're all insane
8:08
but realities within our Modern World St
8:11
January is these are three kind of
8:14
mystical moments that I think are worth
8:17
celebrating and certainly worth
8:18
celebrating in anticipation of the Feast
8:20
of Padre Pio and Monday that just remind
8:23
us that no matter how much the modern
8:26
world wants to say all of that is
8:28
goofiness the reality is the
8:30
supernatural remains an essential part
8:33
of what it means to be Christian and
8:35
what it means to be Catholic and so
8:36
these three feast days we through but
8:39
something that is genuinely a function
8:41
of Sociology but is a function
8:47
of have received the bread we offer you
8:50
fruit of the Earth forever
9:11
are you Lord God of all will become our
9:14

10:39
was betrayed he himself took bread and
10:41

10:43

10:45
disciples saying take this all of you
10:49
and eat of
10:55
it in a similar way when supper was
10:57

11:01
Chalice to his disciples saying take
