Mystagogy: Biblical Conversations With God: As a Person Speaks to A Friend
This fall’s Mystagogy series will consider some of the numerous dialogues God had with His people in the Scriptures. From Adam and Eve to Moses and the Prophets, to the Gospels, where practically every interaction is a conversation with God, the Word made flesh. Guided by Fr. Francis, these interactions will lead us to ponder the meaning of prayer, a right understanding of God and ourselves, the history of salvation, and key themes of Biblical interpretation.
This group meets on Tuesdays at 6:45 in the Lower Church at St. Vincent’s. The topic on December 3rd is “The Call and Response of the First Disciples (John 1:35-51).”

Join Br. Linus for a four-part Parish Study on the end of life and dying well. Each talk will take place in the Lower Church at St. Vincent’s at 6:45 PM and can stand alone, so continuity in attendance is not necessary. The talks are intended for people of belief backgrounds and stages in life. Meetings will be as follows:
For our fourth and final session, we will talk about Heaven, the goal of our earthly pilgrimage. We will examine the biblical revelation about eternal life with the triune God. St. Thomas Aquinas’s theological reflections will guide our approach to this supreme mystery. We will then revisit the topic of end-of-life care to see how even death itself can prepare us for heavenly glory.

In our third session, we will examine the place that the sacraments have at the end of a Christian’s earthly life. We will focus especially on the Anointing of the Sick, which with Confession and the Eucharist forms the heart of the Church’s spiritual care for the dying. We will also discuss best practices about when to request these sacraments and how to prepare well to receive them.

In our second session, we will explore the many essential, but non-sacramental, resources that the Church offers to strengthen and console the dying. The late medieval text, The Art of Dying, recently republished by the National Catholic Bioethics Center, will guide our reflections. We will conclude by applying its principles to the unique difficulties of contemporary end-of-life care.

In our first session, we will begin our discussion of this challenging but spiritually fruitful topic. We will look first at non-Christian ideas about “dying well,” before looking to Jesus Christ and the Resurrection. This study will be shaped by a distinctly Dominican and Thomistic emphasis on the goodness of bodily life, and will also consider the important role mourning plays in a Christian response to death.
