A significant part of the buzz surrounding the production, with its music by Bono and Edge, comes from the fact that the spectacular aerial displays don't always work. Actors have ended up being suspended in midair while stage crews hastened to untangle cables and pulleys. Sometimes, instead of Spiderman flying through the air with the greatest of ease, he ends up hanging helplessly above the stage. From Icarus to NASA, humankind has imagined ways of leaving the earth. Watching birds soar aloft has provoked our imaginations into thinking that we too could one day lift ourselves to the heavens. The Scriptures for the feast of the Ascension leave us with the same vision as Jesus was lifted up in a cloud. Two men in white ask the apostles, "Men of Galilee, why are you standing there looking at the sky?" Why, indeed? Jesus is no superhero, despite having his own rock musical, Jesus Christ Superstar. Looking to the heavens is not what this feast is about. As the Gospel for today reminds us, we are given a great commission: to make disciples of all nations, baptizing people and teaching them to observe what Jesus has commanded. We are not spectators like the audience at a Broadway musical, looking up to see what might happen. We are, instead, actors, taking our roles in the great story of salvation history. The commission Jesus gives in the Gospel is not only addressed to the eleven disciples who gathered with him on a mountain in Galilee. That commission is given to all of us, to go out into the world and to make disciples. Much of the language during this Easter season has an upward movement. Now Christ has commanded us to lift up others so they may be raised to new life in him. Pastoral Perspectives What Did Jesus Actually Say? (part 1 of 2) How would we know what his actual words were? There were no tape recorders or “stenographers” back then. This is a question many people have struggled with, especially over the last few centuries. In fact, the Gospels were not written down for at least a generation or so after Christ. Obviously, then, these sacred tests could not have been “transcribed” as by a court reporter. In fact, as the Pontifical Biblical Commission pointed out over 40 years ago, our faith has come down to us through at least three “stages”. The first stage was the life and teachings of Jesus, up to and including his death and resurrection. This is the ultimate Parish Office — 739-4157 Fax — 739-2795 basis of our faith. This first stage, the underpinning of all ChrisPastor Father Donald Zuleger tian preaching and teaching, was a LIVED experience. The first Parochial Father Vicar David Kelly, OFM disciples experienced a relationship with Jesus, and watched as Deacon Deacon Michael Madden he acted out his teachings every day. They watched his passion Director of Parish Operations Patty Eichhorst and death, and interacted with him after his resurrection. This Bookkeeper Caren Rohde was the seed of their faith, as well as ours. After the Ascension Worship Office Assist/Volunteer Coord. Sandy Reynolds and the first Pentecost, the apostles were empowered by the Holy Administrative Assist/Bulletin Editor Michele Ciske Spirit to embark on the second stage, the eyewitness preaching Maintenance Sam Ciske to the people of the first Christian century. Eventually, the life Janitor Roland Tuyls and faith of those first communities found expression in four Religious Education Office 734-7502 separate Gospel accounts, setting forth the key aspects of that Youth Ministry, RE Coordinator Gr. 7-12 Peter Gagnon lived experience, the relational faith of Christianity. RE Coordinator Gr 1-6 Shirley Riley Religious Education Secretary Julie McMillan Jesus spoke and acted as a first century Jew. Otherwise the people around him would never have understood what he was trying St. Bernadette School Office (ACES) 739-5391 to say. The Apostles also adjusted their preaching to the situaPrincipal Elizabeth Watson tion of those they encountered. These men were valid and trustSchool Secretary Therese West worthy witnesses, who lived with Jesus. Led by the Holy Spirit, Council Members they were able to interpret his life and teachings to those they Parish Trustees Lee Reynebeau, Paul Klister taught. The apostles did not simply enumerate actions and Parish Council words. They actively preached the experience of the life, death, Fr. Zuleger, Lee Reynebeau, Scott Boeckman, Dave Sier, and resurrection of Christ, on which their faith rested. Strict quoCarolyn Cox, Nancy Madden, Chris Sheptoski, Jim Thomes, tation, as we are accustomed to in modern news broadcasts, was Ken Washburn, Mike Zampaloni, Sue Humphrey, Mary not the “vogue” in those times. Instead, it was felt appropriate to Lietz, Tom Doney, Evan Keep, Jeremiah Gagnon adjust remembered words, and interpret sayings by casting them Finance Council in various settings to make a point consistent with the thrust of Fr. Zuleger, Patty Eichhorst, Paul Klister, Lydia Jansen, the ministry of the Lord.
