“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He hath anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor:

He hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted,to preach deliverance to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind,

to preach the acceptable year of the Lord;To give unto them that mourn a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning,

the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;That they might be called trees of righteousness,

the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified.For as the earth bringeth forth her bud,

and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth;So that the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise

to spring forth before all the nations. As the earth bringeth forth her bud.The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the Gospel.”

Death and life have contended in that combat stupendous:The Prince of life, who died, reigns immortal.

Speak, Mary, declaring What you saw, wayfaring.“The tomb of Christ, who is living, The glory of Jesus’ resurrection;

Bright angels attesting, The shroud and napkin resting.Yes, Christ my hope is arisen; To Galilee he goes before you.”

Christ indeed from death is risen, our new life obtaining.Have mercy, victor King, ever reigning! Amen. Alleluia.”

“Where there is charity and love, God is there. The love of Christ has gathered us together,Let us all rejoice and be glad in it. Let us revere and love the living God;

And with a sincere heart let us love one another.Where there is charity and love, God is there. Likewise, therefore, when we come together,

Let us be united as one; Let us be careful, lest we be divided in intention.Let us cease all quarrels and strife. And let Christ dwell in the midst of us.

Where there is charity and love, God is there. May we also see, along with the blessed,The glory of your face, O Christ. And let there be immeasurable joy.

Both now and for evermore. Amen.”

My tears have been my bread by day and also by night,while it is said to me daily: Where is your God?”

Peter and John were going up to the temple area for the three o’clock hour of prayer.And a man crippled from birth was carried and placed at the gate of the temple called “the Beautiful Gate” every day to beg for alms from the people who entered the temple.When he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked for alms.But Peter looked intently at him, as did John, and said, “Look at us.”He paid attention to them, expecting to receive something from them.Peter said, “I have neither silver nor gold, but what I do have I give you: in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazorean, rise and walk.”Then Peter took him by the right hand and raise him up, and immediately his feet and ankles grew strong.He leaped up, stood, and walked around, and went into the temple with them, walking and jumping and praising God.When all the people saw him walking and praising God, they recognized him as the one who used to sit begging at the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they were filled with amazement and astonishment at what had happened to him.

That very day, the first of the week, two of Jesus’ disciples were going to a village seven miles from Jerusalem called Emmaus, and they were conversing about all the things that had occurred.And it happened that while they were conversing and debating, Jesus himself drew near and walked with them, but their eyes were prevented from recognizing him.He asked them, “What are you discussing as you walk along?”They stopped, looking downcast.One of them, named Cleopas, said to him in reply, “Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know of the things that have taken place there in these days?”And he replied to them, “What sort of things?”They said to him, “The things that happened to Jesus the Nazarene, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, how our chief priests and rulers both handed him over to a sentence of death and crucified him.But we were hoping that he would be the one to redeem Israel; and besides all this, it is now the third day since this took place.Some women from our group, however, have astounded us: they were at the tomb early in the morning and did not find his Body; they came back and reported that they had indeed seen a vision of angels who announced that he was alive.Then some of those with us went to the tomb and found things just as the women had described, but him they did not see.”

19

Deacon: The Gospel of the Lord.

All:

And he said to them, “Oh, how foolish you are!How slow of heart to believe all that the prophets spoke!Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer these things and enter into his glory?”Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them what referred to him in all the Scriptures.As they approached the village to which they were going, he gave the impression that he was going on farther.But they urged him, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.”So he went in to stay with them.And it happened that, while he was with them at table, he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them.With that their eyes were opened and they recognized him, but he vanished from their sight.Then they said to each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us while he spoke to us on the way and opened the Scriptures to us?”So they set out at once and returned to Jerusalem where they found gathered together the Eleven and those with them who were saying, The Lord has truly been raised and has appeared to Simon!”Then the two recounted what had taken place on the way and how he was made known to them in the breaking of the bread.

As Catholics, we fully participate in the celebration of the Eucharist when we receive Holy Communion. We are encouraged to receive Communion devoutly and frequently. In order to be properly disposed to receive Communion, participants should not be conscious of grave sin and normally should have fasted for one hour. A person who is conscious of grave sin is not to receive the Body and Blood of the Lord without prior sacramental confession except for a grave reason where there is no opportunity for confession. In this case, the person is to be mindful of the obligation to make an act of perfect contrition, including the intention of confessing as soon as possible (Code of Canon Law, canon 916). A frequent reception of the Sacrament of Penance is encouraged for all.

f O r O u r f e l l O W c h r i s t i a n s

We welcome our fellow Christians to this celebration of the Eucharist as our brothers and sisters. We pray that our common baptism and the action of the Holy Spirit in this Eucharist will draw us closer to one another and begin to dispel the sad divisions which separate us. We pray that these will lessen and finally disappear, in keeping with Christ’s prayer for us “that they may all be one” (John 17:21).Because Catholics believe that the celebration of the Eucharist is a sign of the reality of the oneness of faith, life, and worship, members of those churches with whom we are not yet fully united are ordinarily not admitted to Holy Communion. Eucharistic sharing in exceptional circumstances by other Christians requires permission according to the directives of the diocesan bishop and the provisions of canon law (canon 844 §4). Members of Orthodox Churches, the Assyrian Church of the East, and the Polish National Catholic Church are urged to respect the discipline of their own Churches. According to Roman Catholic Discipline, the Code of Canon Law does not object to the reception of Communion by Christians of these Churches (canon 844 §3).

f O r t h O s e n O t r e c e i v i n g h O l y c O M M u n i O n

All who are not receiving Holy Communion are encouraged to express in their hearts a prayerful desire for unity with the Lord Jesus and with one another.

f O r n O n - c h r i s t i a n s

We also welcome to this celebration those who do not share our faith in Jesus Christ. While we cannot admit them to Holy Communion, we ask them to offer their prayers for the peace and the unity of the human family.

Los católicos participamos plenamente en la celebración de la Eucaristía cuando recibimos la Sagrada Comunión. Se nos anima a recibirla frecuentemente y con devoción. Para estar debidamente preparados a recibir la Eucaristía, los fieles no deben haber cometido pecado grave y deben haber ayunado por una hora antes de comulgar. Quien haya cometido pecado grave desde su última confesión no debe recibir el Cuerpo y la Sangre del Señor sin antes haberse confesado con un sacerdote, excepto en situaciones extremas cuando no hay oportunidad de confesarse. En tal caso, los fieles deben estar conscientes de la obligación de hacer un Acto de Contrición perfecta con la intención de confesarse lo más pronto posible (Derecho Canónico, artículo 916). Se anima a los fieles a recibir el Sacramento de la Penitencia con frecuencia.

P a r a l O s c r i s t i a n O s n O c a t ó l i c O s

Damos la bienvenida a todos los cristianos, como a nuestros hermanos y hermanas, a esta celebración de la Eucaristía. Rogamos para que nuestro bautismo común y el Espíritu Santo nos unan unos a otros en esta Eucaristía y que comiencen a disiparse las lamentables divisiones que nos separan. Siguiendo la oración de Señor “que todos sean uno” (Juan 17, 21), rogamos para que estas divisiones sean aminoradas y finalmente desaparezcan.Los católicos creemos que la celebración Eucarística es una señal de unidad en la fe, la vida y el culto. A los miembros de Iglesias con las cuales no estamos plenamente unidos, por lo general no se les invita a comulgar. Para compartir la Eucaristía en situaciones excepcionales, con cristianos no católicos, se necesita obtener el permiso del obispo diocesano según las provisiones del articulo 844 §4 del Derecho Canónico. Instamos a los miembros de las Iglesias Ortodoxas, de la Iglesia Asiria de Oriente, y de la Iglesia Nacional Católica Polaca, a que respeten las normas de sus propias Iglesias. Según la norma Católica Romana, el Derecho Canónico no prohíbe la recepción de la Comunión por Cristianos de estas Iglesias. (Código Canónico, artículo 844 §3).

P a r a l a s P e r s O n a s q u e n O c O M u l g a n

A todos los que no comulgan, les invitamos a expresar en su corazón el deseo de unidad con Jesucristo y con los demás.

P a r a l O s q u e n O s O n c r i s t i a n O s

Damos la bienvenida a todos los que no comparten nuestra fe en Jesucristo. Aun cuando no podemos invitarlos a la Sagrada Comunión, pedimos sus oraciones por la paz y la unidad de la familia humana.

His Excellency, The Most Reverend Timothy Michael Dolan was appointed Archbishop of New York by His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI, on February 23, 2009.

Born February 6, 1950, Archbishop Dolan was the first of five children born to Shirley Radcliffe Dolan and the late Robert Dolan. In 1964, he began his high school seminary education at Saint Louis Preparatory Seminary South in Shrewsbury, MO. His seminary foundation continued at Cardinal Glennon College, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy. He then completed his priestly formation at the Pontifical North American College in Rome, where he earned a License in Sacred Theology at the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas.

Archbishop Dolan was ordained to the priesthood on June 19, 1976. He served as Parochial Vicar at Immacolata Parish in Richmond Heights, MO. until 1979, when he began his studies for a doctorate in American Church History at The Catholic University of America. Before completing the doctorate, he spent a year researching the late Archbishop Edwin O’Hara, a founder of the Catholic Biblical Association. Archbishop O’Hara’s life and ministry was the subject of the Archbishop’s doctoral dissertation.

On his return to Saint Louis, Archbishop Dolan served in parish ministry from 1983-1987, during which time he was also liaison for the late Archbishop John L. May in the restructuring of the college and theology programs of the Archdiocesan seminary system.

In 1987, Archbishop Dolan was appointed to a five-year term as Secretary to the Apostolic Nunciature in Washington, D.C. When he returned to Saint Louis in 1992, he was appointed Vice Rector of Kenrick-Glennon Seminary, serving also as Director of Spiritual Formation and Professor of Church History. He was also an Adjunct Professor of Theology at Saint Louis University.

In 1994, he was appointed Rector of the Pontifical North American College in Rome, where he served until June 2001. While in Rome, he also served as a Visiting Professor of Church History at the Pontifical Gregorian University and as a faculty member in the Department of Ecumenical Theology at the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas. The work of the Archbishop in the area of seminary education has influenced the life and ministry of a great number of priests of the new millennium.

On June 19, 2001 -- the 25th anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood -- he was named Auxiliary Bishop of Saint Louis by His Holiness, Pope John Paul II, choosing for his episcopal motto the profession of faith of Saint Peter: AD QUEM IBIMUS (“LORD TO WHOM SHALL WE GO?”) (Jn 6:68).

He was named Archbishop of Milwaukee by His Holiness, Pope John Paul II on June 25, 2002, and was installed as its 10th Archbishop on August 28, 2002, at the Cathedral of Saint John the Evangelist. Archbishop Gabriel Montalvo, Apostolic Nuncio to the United States of America, installed Archbishop Dolan.

The CoaT of arms of

his exCellenCy, The mosT reverend

TimoThy michael Dolan, Ph.D, D.D.arChbishop of new york

Blazon:Arms impaled. Dexter: Argent; upon a saltair between four crosses Gules a mill-sail of the field. Sinister: Azure, upon a fess Argent a crown Gules between two scrolls Proper; in chief two crescents, the one to dexter of the second, the one to sinister Or; in base another crescent of the last.

Significance:

The archepiscopal heraldic achievement or archbishop’s coat of arms is composed of a shield with its charges (symbols), a motto scroll and the external ornamentation. The shield, which is the central and most important feature of any heraldic device, is described (blazoned) in 12th century terms, that are archaic to our modern language, and this description is presented as if given by the bearer with the shield being worn on the arm. Thus, where it applies, the terms dexter and sinister are reversed as the device is viewed from the front.

By heraldic tradition the arms of the bishop, who is the “first among equals” of an ecclesiastical province, called a “Metropolitan Archbishop,” are joined, impaled, with the arms of his jurisdiction. In this case, these are the arms of the Archdiocese of New York.

36

37

These arms are composed of a silver (white) field on which is displayed a red saltair; a charge that resembles the letter “X.” This heraldic arrangement is known as a “Cross of Saint Patrick,” and by its use honor is paid to the titular patron of Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, in New York City, the Cathedral-Church of the Archdiocese. Upon the saltair is a silver (white) mill-sail (a wind mill), which is also seen in the seal of New York City, to reflect the Dutch heritage of its founders and that the City was originally known as “New Amsterdam.” Within the areas of the field created by the saltair are seen four small red crosses, for the Gospels, emblematic of the Church’s mission to bring “The Good News” to those entrusted to its care.

For his personal arms, Archbishop Dolan continues to use the design that was adopted upon his selection to receive the fullness of Christ’s Priesthood, as a Bishop, when he was appointed, ordained and installed as Auxiliary Bishop of Saint Louis, and which he used during his tenure as Archbishop of Milwaukee

The Archbishop’s design is composed of a blue field on which is seen a silver (white) fess, a bar across the center of the design which is about one-third of the design. At the center of the fess is a red crown, taken from the arms of the Archdiocese of Saint Louis, the Archbishop’s home, and which he first served in episcopal ministry. The crown is placed between two scrolls, that are described as “Proper,” or “as they appear in nature.” These scrolls are to honor the Archbishop’s baptismal patron, Saint Timothy, who was the recipient of two of Saint Paul’s Epistles.

Above the fess are two crescents; one silver (white) and one gold (yellow), and one below which is also gold. The silver crescent honors our Blessed Mother, in her title of the Immaculate Conception, Patroness of the United States, and the charge is taken from the arms of the Pontifical North American College, in Rome, where Archbishop Dolan studied for the priesthood and later served for seven years as Rector. The other two crescents, of gold, are taken from the Dolan family arms and honor the Arcbishop’s parents.

For his motto, Archbishop Dolan continues to use the Latin phrase, “AD QUEM IBIMUS.” By the use of these words taken from Saint John’s Gospel (John 6:68), Archbishop Dolan takes the words of Saint Peter as was said to Jesus, “LORD, TO WHOM SHALL WE GO,” for truly the Lord is the way to all and eternal happiness.

The achievement is completed with the external ornaments which are a gold archiepiscopal processional cross, that has two cross-members, that is placed in back of and which extends above and below the shield, and the Pontifical hat, called a “gallero,” with its ten tassels, in four rows, on either side of the shield, all in green. These are the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of Archbishop by instruction of the Holy See of March 31, 1969.
